Chapter 273: The Queen Mother

The little father-in-law said with a determined face, and Chang Gonggong was funny in his heart, he had been with him for so long, and it was really rare to be able to maintain this innocence.

Prince Yong has always boasted of his high attainments in calligraphy and painting, few people can match it, and now even the emperor sees that it is a fake, but he is still out of sight and sent to the palace to exchange paintings with the emperor, which is unreasonable.

It is also when he is lucky that the king is in a good mood when he meets the emperor, otherwise he will have to be reprimanded.

Jiang Juan and Qi Moyuan stayed outside the imperial study, and Chang Gonggong went in first.

The emperor didn't know that Jiang Juan and Qi Moyuan were coming, and Gonggong Chang stepped forward to salute, and the emperor said, "Jing'an Wangfu is embarrassed by the princess?" ”

Gonggong Chang shook his head and said, "The slave didn't enter the Jing'an Palace. ”

The emperor frowned slightly, and Father-in-law Chang hurriedly smiled, "As soon as the slave arrived at the Jing'an Palace, the prince and the princess left the palace and were ready to enter the palace, and the slave returned to the palace with them, and the people were outside the imperial study at this time." ”

"Xuan."

The little father-in-law hurried out.

Jiang Juan and Qi Moyuan walked into the imperial study side by side.

When they came in, Grandpa Chang had already told the emperor what happened in the Jing'an Palace.

The emperor is in a better mood than before.

These two juniors are more worthy of his heart than the Manchu Dynasty civil and military.

There has never been a time when the Queen Mother is so happy.

The Jing'an Palace, the Protector's Mansion and the Protector's Mansion have always been well water and do not interfere with river water, and since the assassination and poisoning of King Jing'an in the hunting ground, the Protector has revealed some ambitions and tried to get his hands on the military power in the hands of King Jing'an.

He was still a little jealous of the marriage between the Jing'an Mansion and the Hejian Palace, but he didn't expect that after the granddaughter of the old prince Jiang married the son of the King of Jing'an, the relationship with the Huguo Mansion was not only not better, but even worse than before.

Now even the prince is also on the bar with the Protector Mansion.

King Jing'an did not prevent them from opening a study and squeezing the word Zhai, which shows that he agreed.

The two of them saluted the emperor together, "I've seen the emperor." ”

"No courtesy," the emperor said in a bright mood.

Qi Moyuan and Jiang Juan looked at the emperor, and the emperor was also looking at them.

To be precise, the emperor is looking at Jiang Juan, after all, papermaking and printing are all from Jiang Juan's hands.

Jiang Juan didn't leave a good impression on the emperor, but when I saw him at this time, the emperor still couldn't believe it.

But with such a great credit, the prince of Jing'an will not casually stuff it to the princess and honor him in her name.

Jiang Juan, who looked at the emperor, was a little uncomfortable, and just when she couldn't help but speak, the emperor smiled, "Why did you enter the palace, I already know." ”

"The opening of Wanjuan Building has damaged the prestige of the Queen Mother, and it is not necessary to enter the palace to compensate the Queen Mother."

"I'll go with you."

The emperor will accompany them to see the Queen Mother, which is what Jiang Juan and Qi Moyuan expected.

The queen mother knew that the emperor was supporting the Wanjuan Building, and the money she earned would be used to open the academy, but she just took some rare books from the palace to support the field, and the queen mother put pressure on the emperor in order to repay the old lady of the Guogong Mansion for saving her life.

The eldest princess Yide will go to tell the princess about this, obviously the emperor does not agree to take back the lonely rare book and hand it over to the queen mother, and the eldest princess Yide can't persuade anyone, so she can only ask the princess to come forward and let them back down.

Although it was not the emperor's initiative to open his mouth, but it somewhat fell on the emperor's face, and now such a good opportunity to find the field, the emperor will definitely not miss it.

Besides, the emperor was afraid that the old lady would punish them, so he sent Chang Gonggong to support them, and now they have to face the queen mother, can the emperor not protect them?

The Shunning Palace, where the Queen Mother lived, was a little far away from the emperor's imperial study, and it took a while to arrive.

In the palace, the Queen Mother was sitting there angry, and the grandmother had already returned to the palace and told the Queen Mother about the affairs in the Jing'an Palace.

As soon as he finished the ceremony, the little father-in-law stepped forward and said, "Queen Mother, the emperor is here." ”

After saying goodbye, the little father-in-law stepped aside.

The emperor stepped in, and Jiang Juan and Qi Moyuan followed behind the emperor.

The Queen Mother took a deep breath, suppressed her anger from her face, and said with a smile, "The emperor has finished dealing with the government?" ”

The emperor saluted and said, "Let the Queen Mother wait for a long time, what is the important matter that the Queen Mother sent someone to find me before?" ”

The Queen Mother felt that there was no need to say anything, and her eyes fell on Jiang Juan and Qi Moyuan.

The two stepped forward to greet the Queen Mother.

The emperor said, "Today is the day when Wanjuanlou is reopened, I didn't expect that it would damage the prestige of the Queen Mother, and they came to make amends to the Queen Mother." ”

The Queen Mother's face was gloomy.

Whether she really didn't expect it, or did it on purpose, she, the queen mother, knew it in her heart.

She was about to reprimand, but the emperor took the first step and said, "It was also my negligence, and I took pity on the heavy losses of Wanjuanlou before it opened, so I allowed them to put the copied rare books in Wanjuanlou to sell, I didn't think that Wanjuanlou and Xizizhai were evil, and they wouldn't communicate with each other, so they didn't set the same price." ”

The queen mother's anger surged to her chest, and the emperor helped Jiang Juan and Qi Moyuan speak, forcing her to swallow her anger.

What can I do if I don't swallow it?

Originally, Wanjuanlou sold solitary rare books first, but she relied on herself to be the queen mother, and forced the emperor to hand over the power to sell solitary rare books to Xizizhai under the pretext of wanting to repay the kindness of the Protector Mansion.

The emperor was already unwilling, how could he let Wanjuanlou destroy the copied books?

If the emperor really does this, where is the majesty of the emperor?

In the final analysis, the fault of this matter lies in the cherishing of the word.

It's a pity that the word Zhai is what she wants to do, even for the sake of her own face, the Queen Mother will not count the pity of the word Zhai in front of the emperor, the Queen Mother said, "I also want to make more money and hand it over to the emperor to open the academy." ”

After speaking, the Queen Mother looked at Jiang Juan and Qi Moyuan, "Wanjuanlou's books are sold so cheaply, is there really a profit at all?" ”

Jiang Juan nodded, "The emperor wants everyone in the world to be able to read, and Wanjuanlou naturally does not aim to make money, and the profits are enough to feed a academy." ”

Only...... That's enough......

The emperor has a black line on his face.

Father-in-law Chang was a little skeptical that the princess knew how much it cost to open a academy.

The annual profit of Wanjuanlou is not 10,000 or 20,000 taels, and it is difficult to open the academy.

This academy has not yet opened, and it has already made a reputation, and it is not only to be opened, but also to be opened well, without 20,000 taels, it will not be able to fight.

There are many shops in Kyoto, and there are only a handful of shops that can earn 20,000 taels a year.

is obviously very profitable, but he is stunned to give people a feeling of ignorance that he is not aware of losing money, the princess is very capable, and Chang Gonggong admires it in his heart.

The queen mother glanced at the emperor, she suspected that Wanjuanlou could only do the first half, not for the purpose of making money, and might even lose money, don't wait until the end of the emperor, for the sake of face, from the treasury to open the academy, although it is a good thing, but she will never agree.

The Queen Mother said, "Since Wanjuanlou is so sure, those lonely and rare books will ...... in the future." ”

Before the Queen Mother finished speaking, the emperor interrupted her, "No matter who sells the lonely rare book, it is all for me to open the academy. ”

Jiang Juan stood there, a little wanting to laugh.

Xizizhai grabbed a hot potato this time, or the kind that can't be thrown away if you want to.

The Queen Mother helped the Protector of the Kingdom to grab a rare book, and grabbed it, but now I don't want to do it, how can it be so cheap, even if she and Qi Moyuan agree, the emperor will not agree, who made him Protector of the Kingdom not interesting.

Knowing that it was the emperor who was behind Wanjuanlou, and asking the queen mother to put pressure on the emperor, didn't you put the emperor in your eyes?

Thinking about the word Zhai, Jiang Juan felt sorry for the protector.

Wanjuanlou opened opposite the word Zhai, the book is still sold so cheaply, don't want to make money after the word Zhai.

Although those lonely rare books will not be sold in the future, the price has spread, and the word Zhai is expensive, that is too dark in the heart, but it can be sold cheaply, not only losing money, but also not making money to shout.

The important thing is that the profits from the sale of rare books must be handed over to open the academy, and the profits must be handed over if you lose money.

What's more, in order to sell these unique rare books, Xizizhai can't close its doors......

Such a good location, used to open a study that loses money, thinking about Jiang Juan, I can't help but want to laugh.
