Chapter 103: A son and a half daughter

"Yes." Dongmei stepped forward in response, put the wooden box in her hand on the table and then opened it, and took out the contents of the wooden box one by one and placed them on the table, Princess Xue Jun looked at the small things and couldn't help but exclaim: "These are what my sister wants to do?" ”

Liu Xuan smiled and nodded: "Exactly." ”

"My sister is really generous!" Princess Xuejun's eyes lit up, and she pointed to the small things on the table and said, "If my sister really does this, you are the richest man in the capital!" ”

The things on the table were made by Liu Xuan when she recruited Qingya and other embroidery girls back to Liu's mansion overnight, which were shrunken embroidered screens, bedding, soft pillows and so on, covering almost all the things that brocade cloth could do.

Princess Xue Jun didn't even have to think about it to know how much change it would bring to the capital if these things were made, of course, the premise of all this was that Hang Si was really as cheap as Liu Xuan said.

Liu Xuan smiled slightly: "Sister smiled, my sister is not very interested in the richest man in the capital, my sister just thinks about such a good thing as Hang Si, of course it should be used by the nobles in the capital, if it is not even used by the nobles in the capital, no matter how good Hang Si is, it is just ordinary silk." ”

Princess Xue Jun pondered for a moment and finally asked: "Can my sister really get a large amount of Hangsi, and the price is as my sister said?" ”

"It's nature." Liu Xuan nodded seriously and said: "If my sister needs it, my sister can not only provide Hangzhou silk, but also supply it in large quantities for a long time." ”

Princess Xue Jun was a little moved: "If it is really as my sister said, my sister is willing to use silk instead of cloth, but if there is something unclear, please tell my sister." ”

"Sister, please speak."

"Then my sister said it bluntly." Princess Xue Jun looked at Liu Xuan and said with a smile: "Sister Jinyi also knows how to become famous. Since my sister has the support of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the help of the Liu family, why do you still want to find me? ”

Although Princess Xue Jun asked with a smile, the seriousness in her eyes let Liu Xuan know that if she couldn't answer this question well, Princess Xue Jun would have the intention of closing the Haze Embroidery Workshop, and she would not mix with herself.

Liu Xuan said seriously: "Don't hide it from my sister, the prince and I are indeed old acquaintances, but Hang Si is also a luxury in the eyes of the nobles in the capital, and if the prince comes forward, it will definitely damage the wisdom of His Royal Highness the prince." Besides, I can't ask the prince for everything. And my father-in-law and my mother-in-law love me. But I really don't pay much attention to business, but my sister is different, my sister has been running an embroidery workshop for many years, and she is quite famous among the nobles in the capital. This matter is definitely twice the result with half the effort if my sister comes forward. This is something that no one can compare. ”

Princess Xue Jun didn't say anything after listening to Liu Xuan's words. Instead, she lowered her eyes and pondered carefully, and after a while, she raised her head and had a difficult face: "Don't hide it from my sister, my sister is excited." But this matter is not easy, first of all, my embroidery workshop must enter a large number of Hangzhou silk, and I only recently entered the brocade cloth, is still full of warehouses, even if I am willing to give up the money, from the purchase of Hangzhou silk to make finished products also take time, this turnover is really difficult. ”

Liu Xuan laughed secretly in her heart, Princess Xue Jun was operating in the capital for the New Year, how could she not have those money and silver turnover, and now these words are just to ask her for a good word: "If my sister has nowhere to send the brocade cloth, she can sell it all to her sister, naturally the price is lower, once the Hangzhou silk is on the goods, the brocade cloth is naturally not as good as before." ”

As for my sister's worries, my sister understands, my sister wants to do this with my sister, and the natural risk cannot be borne by my sister alone. It's not as good as this, I provide my sister with free Hangsi, no matter how my sister does it, you and I are divided into five or five. ”

Princess Xue Jun was slightly shocked when she heard this, but after a short period of surprise, she exclaimed: "My sister is so bold and good-looking, my sister admires!" Isn't my sister worried that my sister lied about the selling price and swallowed the money and silver? ”

Liu Xuan smiled slightly: "These are naturally not afraid, first of all, what kind of identity is my sister, how can I lose my identity for this small profit, and secondly, my sister has been operating in Beijing for many years, so naturally she will not do this thing in the long run." Then, my sister seemed to have misunderstood, and my sister said that she would do this with her sister, which means that Jinyi Textile would launch these Hangzhou silk items at the same time as the Tsubaki Embroidery Workshop. ”

Princess Xue Jun covered her mouth and chuckled when she heard this: "My sister really has no last resort, and I believe that my sister can do it even without my sister." ”

She chuckled and clapped her hands: "Good! Since my sister has led this wealth to my sister, my sister naturally can't refuse, so as you said, we are divided into five or five! ”

The two reached a consensus with a smile on their faces, the so-called mutual benefit is a friend, and now the princess of Xue County and Liu Xuan have become friends, and the princess of Xue Jun is not as tempted as before, and she is a lot more honest, she frowned slightly and looked at Liu Xuan and asked: "Since my sister knows that the brocade cloth is going to be greatly reduced, why is she still willing to accept the cloth in my hand?" ”

Liu Xuan didn't hide it from her, and said bluntly: "Accepting the cloth in my sister's hand is to dispel my sister's concerns, and the other is for one person." ”

"For one person?" Princess Xue Jun became interested when she heard this: "Can my sister tell my sister one or two?" ”

Liu Xuan smiled slightly and looked frank: "This is nothing to be told about, my sister should know that my sister was brought back to Beijing by the prince of King Ning, and now this house is also placed by the prince of King Ning, and the prince has now gone to the border to defend the country. ”

Princess Xue Jun couldn't help but value Liu Xuan a little more when she heard this, and she sighed: "My sister is so temperamental, so much so that my sister is embarrassed, those brocade sisters will give them to my sister, which can be regarded as some of my sister's thoughts for the frontier soldiers." ”

Liu Xuan immediately thanked her, but Princess Xue Jun shook her head with a smile: "My sister doesn't know, I also have selfish intentions in doing this, one is to do my best, the other is to show favor to you, and the third is to borrow your hand to fight the favor of the prince of Naning." ”

What she meant Liu Xuan didn't understand, but Princess Xue Jun was so frank that she was a little surprised, she smiled: "My sister is willing to tell her private intentions in her heart is the letter of my sister, and my sister is only grateful." ”

"If only you understood." Princess Xue Jun sighed again, she looked at Liu Xuan and stopped talking.

Liu Xuan looked at her appearance. couldn't help but laugh: "My sister and I are also friends now, so you might as well say anything directly." ”

Princess Xue Jun opened her mouth, and after thinking about her words, she said with a little caution: "Now everyone in the capital knows that my sister has a great relationship with the prince, but now listening to my sister's words, it seems that my sister is friendly with the prince of King Ning again, how does my sister want to come, whether it is the prince or the prince of King Ning, they are all characters who cannot afford to offend." ”

Liu Xuan understood that Princess Xue Jun's words were by no means just concerned about herself, she was worried that if she offended the crown prince or the prince of Ning, her future business would be abolished halfway.

Liu Xuan smiled slightly and said widely: "My sister and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Prince Ning are all old acquaintances. Dissatisfied with the elder sister, long before entering Beijing, the younger sister befriended the prince and the prince of Weifu. These two are friends to me, and nothing else, as for the thoughts of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Prince Ning, my sister has also inquired about one or two, and they are both regarded as sisters who are interesting friends. ”

Liu Xuan is talking nonsense with her eyes open. But in addition to telling nonsense to comfort Princess Xue Jun. There is no other way. She can't say that Li Che spoils her, and she can't say that Deng Yu supports her, she just wants to take advantage of the situation and doesn't want to rely on it.

Although Princess Xue Jun didn't believe it. But when Liu Xuan said this, she could only believe it like this, so she didn't mention it again at the moment, but changed the topic and discussed with Liu Xuan how to promote Hangsi.

Princess Xue Jun grew up in the capital since she was a child, Mo said that she was a relative of her own family, and there were a lot of handkerchiefs alone, in Liu Xuan's opinion, it took some effort to do things, but Princess Xue Jun could be completed with a few simple walks, which is the difference between having a foundation and not having a foundation.

Princess Xuejun's means are very simple, she first let the embroidery workshop make some new Hangzhou silk clothes, she first wore them and then walked in and out of the mansions, she is the princess of the county status, plus she herself is good and noble, just a simple walk can attract all the women to follow suit, as for the men, she still suggested that Liu Xuan follow the previous method, by the prince and Liu Zhiqing and others began to wear Hangzhou silk, he is the object of emulation of all the noble sons in the capital, just go there and naturally someone will follow suit to wear.

Liu Xuan heard that she was a little disagreeing, she agreed that Liu Zhiqing Sun Xun would start wearing Hangzhou silk, but Li Che couldn't, he was the prince's every move was an example, and now that the treasury is not abundant, how could he wear Hangzhou silk first.

Princess Xue Jun thought about it and agreed, the promotion of men's shirts and women's clothes was decided like this, as for other things, Princess Xue Jun wanted to make a few sets first, and then she would give them to a few noble ladies in the capital with a higher status and wider friends.

Liu Xuan naturally agreed, she thought for a while and said: "I have four girls in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and my sister might as well make a few clothes for them." ”

Princess Xue Jun immediately understood Liu Xuan's intentions when she heard this, and said with a smile: "My sister is too good at her means, your four people of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting have hooked countless men's souls, they wear Hangzhou silk, and all the ladies in the capital will definitely be bent on being superior, and there is no need to say much at that time, and the ladies in the capital will naturally inquire about the origin of this dress." ”

Liu Xuan nodded: "That's what my sister meant." In this case, the matter of women's clothes will be more thought about by my sister, and the things and men's shirts will be handed over to my sister. ”

After the two discussed, their eyes were full of visions for the future, and the two discussed some details before Liu Xuan got up and said goodbye.

On the carriage back to Liu's mansion, Qiu Ju was very puzzled: "Why does the girl want to share fifty-fifty with the princess of Naxue County?" Obviously, Hangsi is all made by a girl, and all she does is make some clothes, and according to the slave and maid, the three or seven points are cheaper for her. ”

Liu Xuan smiled at her and explained: "You only saw me out of Hangzhou, but you didn't see the money and silver she spent walking around, don't say that this money is silver, but the workmanship and embroidery of clothes also need silver, not to mention her connections, we are just out of Hangzhou, if there is no her Hangzhou, it is just silk, but with her Hangsi has become a piece of clothing, the price has not only doubled, and the difference between five and five is fair and reasonable." ”

Qiu Ju heard Liu Xuan's explanation, and then she understood a little, and nodded at the moment, her eyes full of respect: "Miss is worthy of being a young lady, and her thoughts are much stronger than those of us slaves." ”

Liu Xuan accepted Qiu Ju's sycophancy, and said with a smile: "Each has its own strengths, if I am asked to manage the back house and take charge of the feed, I am not as good as you." ”

Dongmei disagreed: "The girl is just lazy to that idleness." ”

As soon as her words fell, Qiu Ju tickled the past: "It's rare for a girl to be humble, can't you save some face?" ”

Dongmei suddenly shouted and begged for mercy, Liu Xuan looked at the happy appearance of the two and smiled on her lips, and the atmosphere in the carriage was harmonious.

However, just when their atmosphere was harmonious, someone in a mansion somewhere in the capital was about to smash the handkerchief in his hand.

Cao Ying lowered her head and twisted the handkerchief in her hand, and said in a low voice with the anger and grievances in her heart: "Father once said that Ying'er must be married to the prince, so Ying'er has been waiting since she was married, and now Ying'er is getting older, if she doesn't marry again, she may become a laughing stock in Beijing, but the prince is now very fond of Liu Xuan who suddenly appeared, not only inscribed a plaque for her restaurant, but also went to cheer for her in person. ”

Speaking of this, her voice choked slightly: "In this case, the father might as well choose a family affair for Ying'er, so as not to make his daughter a joke in the capital in the future." ”

Taishi Cao looked at this young girl who had been pampered by him since childhood, frowned and said: "What nonsense are you talking about, your identity is naturally only matched by the prince, originally your sister was the prince's side concubine, if you boldly marry the prince, you can't be higher than your sister, and you are still young and the marriage is naturally not in a hurry, but now your sister is not angry, not only has she never given birth to a son and a half daughter, but she has been demoted to a concubine, your marriage will naturally not be delayed for your father, as for Liu Xuan, who suddenly appeared, you don't need to care at all, It's just a woman with no foundation, and even if the prince likes it, she can't make waves. ”

Cao Ying didn't agree with what he said: "Father's words are wrong, this Liu Xuan's identity is already precious, the prince has always been arbitrary, since he likes him to take her as a concubine, it is only a matter of time, even if the father plans for his daughter, he can only end up with the identity of subservient to her." ”

Taishi Cao snorted coldly, and the cold light in his eyes was sheng: "Even if the prince wants to marry, it depends on whether Liu Xuan's life is hard enough, and he can't wait until the day when the prince marries, this matter is planned by his father, and there will be good news in a few days, you must not think nonsense, and enter the prince's mansion with peace of mind." Don't do some ridiculous things like your stupid sister, after entering the prince's mansion, please the prince with all your heart, and give birth to a son and a half daughter as soon as possible is the right thing.
