301. 213 Ice for plain and fruit
To say that Emperor Jiang was really stingy, Mei Niang gave him fifty jade bracelets, but he only picked out three henchmen, each gave two jade bracelets, and then came to Mei Niang and Jiang Chuye, Mei Niang and Jiang Chuye led the three of them to Yuji's warehouse, which was full of grain and vegetables more valuable than grain, and filled the three of them with six jade bracelets, and then gave each of them a good horse, so they let them go out to sell grain, and they were not allowed to bargain with anyone.
Not to mention, the three of them went back and forth for five days, and the grain and vegetables in the jade bracelet were replaced with gold and silver.
After another three days, when the three of them came back, there were piles of gold and silver, Mei Niang sighed that the three of them were doing good business, and at the same time, she looked at Jiang Chuye speechlessly, Emperor Jiang seemed to be addicted to making money, and he didn't mention disaster relief at all, did he forget that there were still disaster victims across the country waiting to be fed?
In desperation, I had to go into the palace to see Emperor Jiang, and tentatively asked about the remaining jade bracelet, Emperor Jiang talked about it left and right, it was not in the same channel at all, but the meaning was obvious, I wanted him to hand over the remaining jade bracelet to others to use, dreaming!
Inadvertently, he pointed out that there should be more than 20 jade bracelets in Meiniang's hand, as for who recognized the master, he didn't ask deeply, but he could make the owners of these jade bracelets worry about the country.
Mei Niang was helpless, and she gritted her teeth and gurgled loudly, but she could only say: "Daughter-in-law obeys!" ”
Turning her head, Mei Niang smiled happily, what an excuse to leave the capital openly, anyway, the jade bracelet is recognized by Emperor Jiang I don't know, so it should be used by her and Jiang Chuye, anyway, I can take out so many materials, and the storage jade bracelet is indispensable.
Thinking that she could finally leave the capital without being threatened, Mei Niang went to see the eldest princess Zhenyue, and as soon as she met, she asked her if she was willing to go outside, whether it was riding a horse or sitting in a sedan chair, it was considered a distraction.
The eldest princess Zhenyue was also bored in the palace, after so long, Emperor Jiang didn't do anything to her mother's family, presumably it won't be any better, and although she will not be deliberately mistreated in the palace, there is no title in the end, even Zheng Liangyi can sneer at her coldly.
Don't look at people as just seven good things, but seven products are also products, aren't they? It's better than the eldest princess of Zhenyue being mentioned as a princess of the previous dynasty, in the eyes of these people, the eldest princess of Zhenyue also gave birth to an eldest son for Emperor Jiang, otherwise she would have to be locked up and guarded like her mother's family because she was the eldest princess of the previous dynasty.
Therefore, in the palace, even if the emperor did not order her to be harsh, her situation was still very embarrassing, but fortunately, the people who waited around her were all used in the general's mansion in the past, and there were a few that she brought out of the palace at the beginning, so she would not be bullied.
But Aunt Zheng and Princess Jingning, who was always grounded in the palace, came to sneer at her, Princess Zhenyue has a short temper, where can she stand it?
If it weren't for the fear of causing trouble to her mother's family, she would have kicked the two of them away one by one.
Therefore, when Meiniang asked her if she would like to go out of the capital to relax together, Princess Zhenyue agreed without thinking about it.
Mei Niang is naturally not happy, although it is inconvenient to enter and exit the space with the eldest princess of Zhenyue, it is also fun to travel all the way to the mountains and waters, although the mountain is dry and the water is dry, but people are playing the fun of wandering the world.
I think about what Jiang Chuye said to her when she guessed Emperor Jiang's mutiny: Mei'er, are you willing...... ...... with me Wandering ...... End of the world? It's a little exciting to think about.
Although she took her mother-in-law to wander the world together, it didn't feel bad, but Mei Niang still liked her mother-in-law with a bit of a temper.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law here have just set a day to leave, and when Meiniang comes to pick her up again, it is better not to be known by others before, but they heard a noise and a woman's sharp shouting.
A palace maid came in to report, saying that Aunt Zheng and Princess Jingning were outside to see Princess Zhenyue, and they broke in without waiting for the palace people to come in to report, and they were arguing with the palace people who were blocking them at this time.
Princess Zhenyue showed an angry look on her face, and Meiniang was also very unhappy, after all, Princess Zhenyue was her mother-in-law, whether they kissed or not, her mother-in-law just couldn't be bullied.
It seems that Dong Wenwan's incident last time still failed to make this girl stop, and it is better to teach some more lessons.
Just as they were thinking, the two of them had already broken in.
Emperor Jiang has just ascended the throne, except for a few young and beautiful new concubines selected in the courtiers' homes, most of the palaces in the palace are empty, and there are few people like Zheng Liangyi who have given birth to children for Emperor Jiang, although it is only a small Liangyi of the seventh grade, Zheng Liangyi still feels that he is not ordinary with Emperor Jiang, after all, it is a relationship of more than 20 years, maybe when he remembers that she has also given birth to children for herself, she can be upgraded, and she didn't think about it at all, just with her old face that has been crippled by the years, Where can I attract Jiang Huangshang, who looks younger than twenty years younger.
Zheng Liangyi thinks that Emperor Jiang has a lot of credit for giving birth to children, and she is very arrogant in the palace, even those new nobles are of higher grade than her, and she doesn't pay much attention to it, and the sentence 'I have given birth to two princes and a princess for the emperor' is often on her lips.
And Emperor Jiang is now entangled in the affairs of the court and the central government, how can he have time to take care of these things in the harem? Anyway, there are not many serious masters in the palace, so they are handed over to the virtuous concubine who gave birth to a prince and a princess with the highest rank for Emperor Jiang, and only gave birth to a princess Concubine Ying to assist, although these two people do not have much class relationship with Zheng Liangyi, but they have been suppressed by Princess Zhenyue for many years, and they are all soft temperaments, in the end, they are afraid that she has two princes, a princess, even if she has something out of the ordinary, it is not good not to give face, which has caused Zheng Liangyi's attitude of no one in her eyes, and Princess Jingning is even more brainless, The two of them can get together and set up a stage to sing.
On weekdays, I didn't go to the eldest princess Zhenyue, the purpose was nothing more than to ask for some interest for the oppression she had suffered in the past.
Let's say that Zheng Liangyi and Princess Jingning broke in from the outside, and as soon as they entered the room of the eldest princess Zhenyue, they raised their noses and eyes, and everything felt that they were not as good as those in their palace.
It is said that Zheng Liangyi is not qualified to live alone in a palace, but now there are few concubines in the palace and many empty courtyards, and someone of her age and rank like her is really the only one, and there is no need to squeeze with other new concubines, so she was simply given a palace by Emperor Jiang, for which she was proud for a few days, and said that the emperor was thinking of her, if it wasn't for the emperor's eldest son to make a hindrance, how could the emperor not seal her a concubine?
Some of these words reached Emperor Jiang's ears, but a harem is now handed over to Concubine Xian and Concubine Ying, and it is inconvenient for him to interfere, not to mention, he is really not in the mood to care about this little thing, how can he say that Zheng Liangyi really gave birth to two princes for him, he can't really beat her to the palace, as long as she doesn't make too much trouble, let her be fine.
In fact, deep down, he still hoped that Princess Zhenyue would be willing to take care of the harem for him, after all, according to his background and what he saw and heard in the palace, as well as many years of experience in governing the General's Mansion, Princess Zhenyue was more suitable than those two weak ones, but Princess Zhenyue was now even indebted to him.
The eldest princess of Zhenyue picked up a cup of fragrant tea and put it to her lips, as if she didn't see the mother and daughter, she only looked at Meiniang and said, "Daughter-in-law, do you have good mosquito repellent herbs?" If it's hot today, the flies and mosquitoes are all out to make a fuss. ”
Zheng Liangyi opened her mouth, her face was red but she didn't know how to speak, if she scolded back, it seemed to admit that she was the noisy flies and mosquitoes, but she didn't scold back, so she always suffered a loss when she was scolded by Princess Zhenyue.
"Yes, this matter is the daughter-in-law's negligence, go back to let people send it, these days the more hot, the husband yesterday also said that let the daughter-in-law send some ice for the mother-in-law every day, but the daughter-in-law forgot, turn around and send someone to send the mother-in-law, I don't know whether the mother-in-law likes the original flavor or added fruit."
“…… Send some. "My own son and daughter-in-law are not polite, although I don't know what is original and what is added with fruit, Princess Zhenyue still nodded.
Putting the teacup on the table, the corners of his eyes twitched, "The herbal tea that my daughter-in-law sent last time is also very good, let's send some along with it." ”
Mei Niang also said that she remembered it, and Zheng Liangyi next to her was not jealous, because the drought began in the first winter of last year, and the water level was getting lower and lower day by day, and when it could be frozen, the ice was shallow and could not be stored at all, and the ice was not clean enough and was not suitable for consumption.
What's more, the weather in the capital is not very cold, and if you want to store ice, you have to go to a distant place to transport it, even if you store a little ice, it is not enough for the palace, in addition to the emperor and the two concubines, there are several princes and princesses who have a quota every day to cool down in the house, and no one else in the palace has this benefit, and even if there is a quota, it is only to cool down or ice some fruits, and it is definitely impossible to eat.
The eldest princess of Zhenyue was specially told by Emperor Jiang to send ice, but the eldest princess of Zhenyue just didn't accept his affection, and the ice was sent to it, whether it was to cool down or to have some fruits in the town, but this ice was still inedible, and it was definitely much worse than the ice and ice cream that Meiniang had saved in the winter space.
Hearing what Mei Niang said, Zheng Liangyi, who couldn't even see the ice slag, was even more jealous, and thought that if it wasn't for the eldest princess Zhenyue who intervened sideways, Miss Yuer couldn't say that it would be her daughter-in-law, and now she is using these ices.
Even Princess Jingning, who has a quota to use ice, was jealous when she heard it, and then looked at Princess Zhenyue's eyes with anger.
The eldest princess of Zhenyue just continued to drink tea as if she was fine, and the tea was also the herbal tea sent by Mei Niang before, at this time, after a while on the ice, it tasted cool and quenched her thirst, and her whole body was comfortable.
After taking a sip of tea, she looked up, and saw that the two of them were still standing still, and the eldest princess Zhenyue frowned, "Where did you come from?" Don't call out to the main palace yet! ”
