Chapter 61: Dedication to the Country
Maybe it was because of the excessive use of the brain, the two of them slept until the next morning, and when Qiao Mingyue woke up, she thought that time had gone backwards, and she sat on the edge of the bed and thought about it for a while before she reacted.
At this time, Qi Jingyun also woke up, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Qiao Mingyue sitting on the edge of the bed stunned, and subconsciously leaned in and kissed him.
"Lady, it's early." Saying that, Qi Jingyun also hugged Qiao Mingyue a few times, and with his chicken-nest-like hairstyle, he was like a domestic dog.
Qiao Mingyue hadn't woken up from the state of getting up yet, and was still being held by him, anyway, it was quite comfortable.
Just when the two of them were enjoying a good time getting up in the morning, Biyu pushed the door in a panic and ran in, and when she saw the posture of the two, she was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly covered her eyes with her hands and said, "Princess, the people from Yunxiang Pavilion came to say that there was a circle of people around their door, and the shopkeeper asked what to do." ”
Hearing Yunxiangge, Qiao Mingyue's brain instantly sobered up, she withdrew from Qi Jingyun's arms and left, and walked out of the door as soon as she put on her shoes, she didn't even take off her clothes when she came back yesterday, and she had to change them today.
Yesterday, she gave the shopkeeper a notice written by Qi Jingyun, calling on the people of Kyoto to buy fancy products for the country, subsidize military spending, and dedicate their own strength to repel the Huns. Qiao Mingyue was afraid that the situation would develop too quickly and get out of control, so she hurriedly took Biyu to Yunxiang Pavilion, and before leaving, she returned Qi Jingyun with a good morning kiss, so that he could wait for his good news with peace of mind.
Qi Jingyun's reaction was like a little daughter-in-law who was left at home by her newlywed husband, Qiao Mingyue felt funny when she thought about it.
The carriage couldn't move when it reached the street where Yunxiang Pavilion was located, and it seemed that there were more people coming today than when Hua Yanqiao first sold it.
Qiao Mingyue put on a hat and let Biyu wait in the car, blending into the crowd by herself, fortunately Qiao Mingyue didn't eat fat, and she could barely move in the case of crowding.
Qiao Mingyue walked in the direction of the back door of Yunxiang Pavilion, while observing the people around her, only to see that they each had a notice, the expression on their faces was angry and excited, it seems that this trick is not bad, the patriotic enthusiasm of the people of Kyoto is even higher than Qiao Mingyue imagined.
I don't know how long it took to squeeze, Qiao Mingyue finally came to the back door of Yunxiang Pavilion and walked in.
The shopkeeper had been waiting for her inside for half an hour, and when he saw her coming, his hanging heart finally fell back into his stomach.
"Princess, I asked Xiao Er to send the notice yesterday, and there were people surrounding the door of Yunxiang Pavilion at dawn today, and the guys in the store are almost unable to stop it now, what should we do now?"
Qiao Mingyue patted him on the back and said calmly: "Don't worry, you did a good job, I have another task for you below." ”
She tilted her head sideways and said a few words to the shopkeeper, asked him to go out to prepare, and consciously slipped up to the observation deck on the second floor to observe the reaction of the people.
I saw the shopkeeper walk out of the store, followed by Xiao Er, carrying a stool.
Xiao Er put the stool on the ground and helped the shopkeeper to stand up, and then silently pushed it to the side to guard.
"Everyone, be quiet, I am the shopkeeper of Yunxiang Pavilion, please let me say a few words."
The crowd downstairs heard his voice and slowly quieted down, waiting to hear what he had to say.
"Today is a half-monthly sales meeting, but this time the sale is different from the usual, I believe everyone has seen the notice issued by our Yunxiang Pavilion, the Huns are attacking, the country is in danger, Yunxiang Pavilion wants everyone to guarantee that all the proceeds from this sale will be handed over to the army with a good semicolon, so that everyone can contribute to the repelling of the Huns! In addition, tomorrow there will be a charity sale here, and a lot of second-hand goods will be sold here, and the same proceeds will be handed over to the army. If you have any doubts, when the sale is over, Yunxiang Pavilion will post all the amount and vouchers at the door, and everyone is welcome to supervise! Now, I announce that the sale is open! ”
After the shopkeeper said this, he quickly stepped back from his chair and retreated.
Facts proved that his choice was correct, the influx of people kicked the chair he had just stepped on five meters away in an instant, and the people rushed forward one by one with their money, regardless of whether they usually slammed the door or not, in front of the country, everyone was generous. The guards from the palace and the original guards of Yunxiang Pavilion surrounded them twice, and they barely managed to maintain order.
Qiao Mingyue stood upstairs and looked at the situation below, her heart was already happy, with the support of the people of the entire Kyoto City, if she couldn't collect all the grain and grass, I am afraid that God would not be able to stand it.
The purpose has been achieved, the shopkeeper will directly exchange the money for a silver ticket and send it to the palace when the sale is over, and Qiao Mingyue will not waste time in Yunxiang Pavilion, otherwise she will not even be able to get out when the sale ends for a while.
Besides, there is a charity sale waiting for her tomorrow, and she has to go back to the palace to pack up and see if there is anything to sell.
Qiao Mingyue only cared about her jewelry and clothes along the way, and she didn't even know when she arrived at the palace, but it was Jasper who came to remind her that she reacted.
As soon as she got out of the car, she was shocked by the scene in front of her.
The two housekeepers in the palace and Mama Rong were at the door, directing the subordinates to move things out box by box, quite a battle of raiding the house.
Qiao Mingyue hurriedly walked over and asked, "What's the situation?" Did the prince commit an accident? ”
Mama Rong laughed angrily at her words, "You girl, why do you always think about the worst." ”
Qiao Mingyue smiled embarrassedly, "Then what's wrong?" ”
"Didn't you say you were going to bazaar? When the prince came together, he ordered us to clean up the palace, and sell what should be sold. Mama Rong pointed to the boxes of things that went out one by one.
"I see." Qiao Mingyue suddenly realized, she didn't expect that Qi Jingyun's guy would also share the burden for herself, it seemed that she had to reward him for a while.
Just as she was thinking about how to reward Qi Jingyun, several subordinates came over carrying a box, and the box didn't know what it contained, and the three of them had some difficulty carrying it away.
Qiao Mingyue stopped them and asked, "What's in this box?" ”
The little guy who walked in front put the box on the ground, saluted Qiao Mingyue, and replied, "Back to the princess, the boxes are filled with books that the prince doesn't want, and there are three boxes in the back that are being transported." ”
"What?"
Qi Jingyun actually bought the book? Want to rebel while you're away? No wonder he is so empathetic today, it turns out that he wants to cheat for personal gain.
The more Qiao Mingyue thought about it, the more angry she became, and she lifted her skirt and ran in the direction of the study.
Rong Shuang looked at her back and smiled helplessly, and said to the little guys: "What are you doing in a daze, don't you see that the princess is unhappy?" Hurry up and move these books back, and by the way, tell the people behind you not to move them either. ”
The little guy nodded hurriedly, picked up the box and ran back, but it was much faster than when he came.
