Chapter 442: Humiliation

In the evening, Qingyun took a cursory glance at the account books and made sure that she had a rough idea in her heart.

Early the next morning, Qingyun had just finished breakfast.

The shop brought a few large boxes.

The box was naturally filled with yesterday's income, and after a night of sorting, it was gathered into a box and brought to Qingyun and Chu Bei to see.

Chu Bei was not there, so he got up early and went to the palace early.

In the early dynasty, the emperor asked casually, "I heard that yesterday you and Qingyun's shop opened, which caused a sensation, and that street was blocked, and the income was a lot of money?" ”

Many ministers looked at Chu Bei.

Chu Bei didn't hide it, he replied, "Yesterday's shop earned two and a half million taels. ”

At that time, the emperor was drinking tea, and when he heard such a number at first glance, he squirted out all the tea in one gulp.

The poor emperor has been on the throne for 20 years, and he has never been so disrespectful in the council hall.

Father-in-law Sun hurriedly sent the handkerchief, and the emperor wiped it indiscriminately.

Even the emperor was so shocked, and the other ministers could imagine it.

"How can a shop earn such an astonishing amount of money in one day?" The emperor's tone was full of disbelief.

Before the emperor ascended the throne, he also ran a shop, with a monthly income of more than 5,000 taels, and the shop was very good in Kyoto.

Two and a half million taels, the emperor asked himself, he can't earn so much even if he opens a shop for a lifetime.

Chu Bei looked at the emperor and said, "The income of the shop is indeed a bit amazing, but the two and a half million taels may be the income in the next five or six years, or even ten or twenty years." ”

The ministers nodded slightly.

Their wife spent a lot of money yesterday and spent 10,000 taels of silver to buy two boxes of 50 taels of rouge back, so much money, can't it be used for five or six years?

Thinking that the money was spent, all of it was used to fight the war, but it was worth the money.

I just don't know that Princess Chen donated so much money to the imperial court, how did this money be deducted?

Don't tell them, the 2.5 million taels are only counted as those sold yesterday, in that case, it is estimated that 100,000 taels will be up to the sky.

Some ministers were really curious, so they said, "I heard from Neizi that Princess Chen opened a shop, and all the income of the previous month was handed over to the treasury, so the two and a half million taels were all donated?" ”

The emperor looked at Chu Bei.

The emperor's eyes were a little expectant, but he changed his expression in an instant, joking, he is still the emperor now, and he is not the general of twenty years ago, how can he look at his son with such expectant eyes, as if waiting for him to pay the soldiers in the army.

This country, as soon as he holds his hand, it is Chen'er's, okay!

He has worked hard for the country for 20 years, fattened a number of ministers, and deserved to be in the hands of Chen'er, thinking of scraping them a layer of oil and water.

Thinking about it, he clenched his fists and coughed lightly, and then continued to look at Chu Bei.

Chu Bei replied, "Yesterday's income of 2.5 million taels, although there is a capital for the next few years, or even more than ten years, but Erchen and Qingyun discussed, the money is all used for the war, a month later, the shop is operating normally, and it should be able to keep the shop from losing money, even if it loses some, it will not get in the way." ”

It's obviously a super money-making shop, but it turns out that I don't even know if I can keep my capital, and many ministers don't know what to say.

It seems that all dynasties have never seen such a generous prince and princess.

Even if it's a queen, which one isn't planning for herself?

In the future, if this throne is not passed on to King Chen, and if it is not passed on to Princess Chen's concubines, it will be impossible to say, if it is them, it will definitely be mad.

Hearing Chu Bei say this, the emperor shouted a few times, and then praised Qingyun.

As for Chubei, the emperor just praised it in passing.

You must know that the shop sells all the things that his daughter's family likes, his own son, he still doesn't know, he doesn't have that patience, obviously, it's all the credit of Qingyun, and he is very clear.

praised Qingyun, and the next thing was to praise Qingyun, his father, Andinghou and Mrs. Jiang.

In the main hall, Marquis Anding and Old Lady Jiang stared for a long time.

The daughter can be so sensible, for the royal family, it is naturally a good thing, but she is so heart-wrenching, can you guarantee that King Chen has always loved her, they are all men, know the nature of men, there are few men who are long-term lovers, in case King Chen becomes the emperor in the future, empathize and don't love, the daughter has to be so angry that she vomits blood and dies.

Of course, they still have a lot of confidence in King Chen, Qingyun is so kind-hearted, if King Chen fails her, he will definitely suffer from thunder and thunder.

That's it, Qingyun has always understood proportions and knows how to do it to be good for her.

If you want to be them, you will definitely not be so heart-wrenching.

Hou Ye sighed in his heart, especially when a minister behind him waved at him, and whispered to bite his ears in the council hall, "Hou Ye has raised a good daughter who has both ability and political integrity and regards money as dung, which is really enviable." ”

After boasting, he said, "Are there any unmarried daughters in the house?" ”

Hou Ye was a little proud, and then sighed, "It's all married." ”

The minister immediately jumped out of his heart and said: Who is so blessed!

The main hall is particularly lively.

In Chenwang's Mansion, Qingyun and the maid were looking at the big box sent by the shop.

Looking at a large box of gold, in the sunlight, it shone dazzlingly.

Thinking of so much money, it was all sent to the palace in a while, and everyone in the room was very painful, including Qingyun.

I had only seen the numbers in the account books before, and I had no other thoughts than horror.

Now that I see it with my own eyes, I am really reluctant.

"Cover the box," she said, looking away, for fear that if she looked twice, she would be forced to break her word.

Qingying reluctantly touched the gold and slowly closed the box.

In addition to a large box of gold and three large boxes of silver, there was also a large box, and the silver ticket was contained in the box.

Originally, Qingyun wanted to count the silver tickets herself, but she couldn't be interested at this time.

But the steward was still holding a very delicate little box in his hand, which made her hearted, and she said, "What is in it?" ”

The shopkeeper is the secret guard of Chubei, and his surname is naturally Wei.

Hearing Qingyun's question, the Wei steward hurriedly sent the box to the road, "Back to the princess, this box is also filled with silver tickets." ”

Qingyun's eyes showed a touch of doubt, they are all silver tickets, how to pack them separately?

The guard steward gave a look that you know.

Suddenly, the rhyme is clear.

In yesterday's account book, in addition to recording a total of 2.5 million taels, she also wrote down 250,000 taels in vermilion, and she didn't understand what it meant.

I wanted to ask at the time, but the dark guard who sent the account book didn't know, and the secret guard wanted to ask him, but she stopped him.

At this time, it seems that the 250,000 taels are deducted by the health steward.

In other words, yesterday's income was actually 2.75 million taels.

The corners of Qingyun's mouth rose, and her mood became happy again, with these 250,000 taels, it was enough for the shop to turnover.

As soon as Qingyun was happy, she rewarded them one by one.

The steward of the guard rewarded one hundred taels, Wei Feng and them were sixty taels each, several big maids were thirty taels each, second-class maids were twenty taels, and third-class maids were ten taels, and the palace was up and down, and the others were each rewarded with three months' money.

Up and down the palace, everyone was happy and couldn't close their mouths.

Seeing that Qingyun was happy, the health manager knew that he had done the right thing, this month, ten percent of the daily income was deducted as the capital, and the rest was handed over to the treasury.

After rewarding, Qingyun asked Wei Feng to send the money to the palace to the emperor.

After the emperor saw it, his heart trembled fiercely.

Although he is the emperor and sits on thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, if you really talk about it, he is still very poor.

At least his small treasury does not have more than 500,000 taels of silver, of course, those rare things are not counted, when the emperor can't take the tribute and the congratulatory gifts sent during the New Year's holidays to sell it, even if it is thrown in the treasury and ashes, it can't be sold.

After reading it, the emperor instructed, "Convert these gold and silver tickets into silver, and I will take them to the border the day after tomorrow." ”

He was a little relieved about the soldiers' salaries, and even if he owed them, he shouldn't owe much.

In addition to the silver, there is grain and grass.

Chen'er sent someone to hijack the grain and grass prepared by the Jiang family in Qizhou for the Duke of Xingguo, which could withstand a period of time, and during this period, he could happily fight with the Northern Jin Dynasty.

It's cool to think about.

The emperor here is cool, and the Qingyun is very angry over there.

Because she was splashed with dirty water.

She has to eat sour plums every day, and every day there will be maids out of the house to buy them.

Today it is the turn of the purple note.

She happily left the house, only to come back with a blue nose and swollen face.

When she entered the courtyard, Lu'er saw her and said from afar, "Sister Zijian, you can be regarded as back, and the princess rewarded you with twenty taels of silver...... ”

She walked over with the silver in her hand, and when she walked in, her eyes widened, "You, what's wrong with your face?" ”

Purple notes burst into tears.

Lu'er was frightened, Zi Jian looked like a peugeot, she thought she was out of the house to buy pastries, and when she met the gangsters, she immediately scolded, "Who ate the bear's heart and leopard gall, even you dare to fight?" ”

She looked angry, but she didn't roll up her sleeves and pull her out of the house to find a place for her.

Lu'er had a very loud voice, and when she shouted, everyone in the yard heard it.

They have always been united, and bullying any of them is tantamount to bullying them.

What's more, Zi Jian is a maid with clear rhyme, as the saying goes, it depends on the owner to beat the dog.

Looking at the injury on Zijian's face, Qingyun's face was also ugly.

But Zi Jian said why her nose was blue and her face was swollen, and her face was even more ugly.

Zi Jian sobbed and sobbed, "The injury on the slave's face was beaten by the maid in the right minister's mansion, of course, the slave and maid are not weak, and she didn't get any benefits, her face was scratched by the slave." ”

Qingyun's brows furrowed when she heard this, she was not interested in how the maid who was fighting with Zijian was injured, she was curious, "Why did you fight with the maid in the right prime minister's mansion?" ”

"yes, how did you get into a fight?" Magpie asked.

Zi Jian said, "The slave maid doesn't know what's going on, it's spread all over the outside, saying that the girl is pregnant on Tuesday, this rumor is still spread by our palace, the girl on Tuesday happened to come to buy sour plums, and she got angry when she heard it, so she grabbed the slave's collar and said that it was passed on by the slave maid, and the slave said that she was unreasonable, so she got angry, and then the fight broke out ......." ”

Qingying blinked when she heard this, and asked, "Is the girl really pregnant on Tuesday?" ”

Zi Ji covered the bruises at the corners of his mouth, and was about to cry, "How do I know? ”

She has been bullied like this, and she still rubs salt on her wounds, is there such a thing?

Qingyun glanced at Zijian and said, "Go to the medicine first." ”

Zi Jian was blessed and retreated.

Qingyun stood there, her brows furrowed.

The green warblers and magpies looked at each other.

Before, Qiu He picked up the fetal pill dropped by the Tuesday girl's maid, and they did wonder if the Tuesday girl was pregnant.

But the princess has given a gag order, and she is not allowed to break half of her mouth.

When they went out, they didn't say a word, they just lay down in the bed at night and chatted, and they didn't say anything.

Only a few of them knew about it, how did this rumor get outside?

A few maids reflected on it, making sure that they didn't show half of their mouths, and then looked at Qingyun, "Princess, the matter of the girl on Tuesday ......." ”

Before they could finish speaking, Qingyun raised her hand to interrupt them.

"I know you don't talk nonsense."

Her own maid, can she still trust it?

Breaking Tuesday's girl's mouth would ruin her reputation and do her no good, and her maid would not have done such a stupid thing.

Thinking of the girl eating sour plums on Tuesday, and the fetal pill that was delivered to her.

A cold glow flashed at the bottom of Qingyun's eyes.

She said that if the girl on Tuesday was really pregnant, she should try her best to hide it, lest everyone would not know about her.

It turned out that it was for her to set up a game.

What is the purpose of her self-destruction of her reputation like this?

Qingyun raised her eyes to the sky.

There was a white cloud in the sky, and under the sunlight, it emitted a faint golden light.

At the gate of the courtyard, a maid in a blue skirt ran in with a skirt, ran in a hurry, and almost fell.

She staggered forward, breathless, and said, "Princess, Gonggong Li is here." ”

Qingying asked, "What is Gonggong Li doing here, is it a reward from the emperor?" ”

Qingying subconsciously thought of this reason.

The princess was so generous that she sent 2.5 million taels of silver to the emperor, and the emperor was happy, and it was normal for Gonggong Li to read out the reward.

It's just that Emperor Pingsu rewarded the princess, and it was Gonggong Sun who personally came to announce the decree.

Gonggong Li didn't seem to have enough weight.

The maid was trying to take a deep breath, seeing that Qingying guessed wrong, the maid was still very happy, guessing that the emperor's reward this time must be an excellent thing, she quickly shook her head and said, "No, no, Gonggong Li didn't come to announce the decree, he came to pass the princess into the palace, saying that rumors spread on the street, and the girl on Tuesday was humiliated and hanged herself." ”

As for why she was humiliated, the maid didn't know.

She didn't know why she was humiliated, but the emperor passed the princess into the palace, which was too strange.

The princess is still pregnant!

Qingying's heart trembled, and her face turned pale.

Qingyun smiled, like a peony in full bloom, "Is it that Mrs. Right Xiang brought the girl who was hanged but did not die into the palace and asked the emperor for justice?" ”

The maid's eyes widened, she was too tired to run, and when she was shocked, she stammered a little, "Wang, princess, you, how do you know?" ”

She hasn't even said it yet.

The maid suddenly felt that she had come desperately to pray, it was too unworthy.

How did she know?

A disdainful smile crossed the corner of Qingyun's mouth.

After trying his best to calculate and failing to achieve his goal, how could he be willing to die? (To be continued.) )
