Chapter 1141: The Palace (26)
The woman's voice was not hurried, and although there were many things in the tray, there was no intention of rushing to sell.
Soap and rouge are good things and don't worry about selling.
She has not been selling soap and rouge on this road for a day or two.
Seeing her selling, there are few who are willing to take care of her, but when she introduces the soap in detail, most of them will buy some and try it back, or even buy it short.
The princess is richly dressed and has a graceful temperament, and at first glance she is not bad for money.
Especially when the prince sits beside her, the princess doesn't buy it, but the prince will also buy some to please her.
But the woman didn't have a chance to speak, and the magpie said, "We don't buy soap." β
The woman was stunned, she hadn't said it was soap, and even the maid knew about it?
The woman was embarrassed.
The woman asked the magpie, "How much did you buy your soap?" β
The magpie replied, "Two pieces of silver." β
The woman sneered, "It's expensive, I only need eight pieces of silver here." β
The magpie laughed too, "Do you have that scented soap here?" β
"Yes, but it's expensive, a tael of silver," the woman laughed.
"That's what my wife uses," the magpie laughed.
ββ¦β¦γβ
The woman was even more embarrassed.
She's selling for twice as much as others.
People sell one tael of silver for two pieces, and she sells one tael of silver.
But there are not many people who sell soap in Daqibianguan, and it takes one, two, or three to buy two pieces of that crystal clear soap, where did they buy it?
The woman inquired, and the magpie did not hide it from her, "I bought it directly from Daqi Kyoto." β
The woman laughed twice, "No wonder, it's normal for things at the border to be more expensive than in Kyoto, and I can't sell them at this price, otherwise my family will have to lose it." β
The woman turned around with the tray.
The king of Nan'an and they sat a little farther away, and the woman introduced them to the king of Nan'an when they were not with the princess.
The jade fan in Nan'an Junwang's hand knocked on the tray and said, "Don't do soap business in three months, you will smash your hand." β
The woman wondered, "Why?" β
"In three months, someone will sell soap, and the price will be much cheaper than what you sell," said Wang of Nan'anjun.
The woman smiled, but did not take the words of the king of Nan'an to heart.
Seeing that no one was buying soap, he brought the tray back to the house.
Women don't come to the stall to drink tea and will bring out a tray, this soap is a precious thing, not ordinary people can use it.
After the princess and them, the woman served them a few more times and sold a few pieces.
The next day, Su Jin and Xie Jingchen rested at the tea stall, and the woman saw Su Jin and Qin Han'er, as well as two children, and her eyes were shining with joy.
Your lady is willing to buy soap, and she is even more willing to spend money for children, and this soap is the most suitable for children to bathe.
The woman thought that the tray would be sold out, but she could not sell a single one.
As soon as it was served, Xing'er was surprised, "Nanliang also sells soap?" β
Woman," ....... β
Don't let people do business?
If you don't buy it, forget it, and don't even give her a chance to speak.
The woman glanced at Su Jin and Qin Han'er, and then looked at Xing'er, "Listening to the accent, it doesn't look like I'm from Nanliang?" β
"We're from Daqi," Xing'er said sincerely.
ββ¦β¦γβ
No wonder.
In Daqi, how can the rich and noble not use soap?
It's Nanliang, and a noble lady who doesn't use soap is not a noble lady.
Yesterday, the king of Nan'an advised the woman not to sell soap anymore.
Xing'er persuaded her too.
Woman," ....... β
Su Jin didn't stay long at the tea stall, and set off after drinking a cup of tea.
After seeing the carriage go away, the woman looked at the owner of the tea stall and said, "Boss, yesterday someone advised me not to sell soap, and today someone persuaded me to do so, is this soap business really not possible?" β
In these months, the money from selling soap is much more than selling tea.
It was not sold, and the woman was reluctant.
The owner of the tea stall looked at the carriageway that walked away, "Today's group of people is no worse than the group of people yesterday, they must have some kind of gossip, and if we do it for another two months, we won't do this soap business." β
The woman looked distressed and said, "It can't be a deliberate spread of news, so I can sell it myself, right?" β
The owner of the tea stall said, "If this is the case, then it will not be able to be done." β
How can they compare with those big businessmen?
If the noble lady wants to buy soap, she will buy it from the shop first, but she can't buy it, so she thinks of them.
Moreover, the store has a lot of stock and the price is cheap, and if they do not have an advantage in price, it will be even more difficult to sell.
This way, although it was bumpy, the carriage walked slowly, stopped and stopped, and toured the mountains and rivers, but it did not tire the two children.
Su Jin and the princess always kept a day's journey.
The guards will mark them, and they will know when the princess rested here yesterday.
Because he brought the little county lord, he not only walked slowly on the road, but also rested a lot of times.
Without stopping, the secret guard ran to the latrine.
After many times, the king of Nan'an County still wondered if the secret guard had something to be ashamed of, and patted him on the shoulder to tell him not to hide his illness and avoid medical treatment.
The secret guard was photographed by the king of Nan'an County, and they didn't think much about it at all.
Two days later, the eldest young master of the Dingguo Mansion found that the secret guard had carved two words on the ground next to the latrine: noon.
The eldest young master of the Dingguo Mansion asked the dark guard, "What do you do with lettering?" β
"It's nothing, carved to play," the dark guard was a little weak.
The eldest young master of the Dingguo Mansion was a little unconvinced.
But if you want to give people a tip-off, it is obviously impossible, the secret guard is very loyal to Xie Jingchen, and it is impossible to betray Xie Jingchen.
But his behavior is too suspicious, in the spirit of caution, the eldest young master of the Dingguo Mansion and the king of Nan'an County said it.
King Nan'an touched his chin and thought, "There must be something wrong with this." β
"What's the problem?" Hou Shizi of Beining asked.
ββ¦β¦ I don't know. β
But I don't know if it doesn't hinder the king of Nan'an County, they secretly changed the word.
Noon is changed to midday.
When the secret guard told Xie Jingchen and Su Jin, both of them thought that the princess had sped up.
changed it twice, and successfully brought Su Jin and the princess to the dock.
It's just that unfortunately, when the princess and them arrived, the scheduled boat was requisitioned by the yamen, and they could not leave until tomorrow, and the princess and they could only stay in the town for one night.
Su Jin and the boat they booked had been waiting for two days, and they were waiting for them eagerly.
And thenβ
Su Jin went directly to the princess and them from one day behind.
The dark guard followed the princess on the boat, and there was no way to send news to Su Jin and them, and the speed of the ship was about the same, and there was not much difference between speed and slowness.
Riding on a boat is more comfortable than riding in a carriage, but the little county lord doesn't know what he has eaten, not only diarrhea, but also vomiting.
There was no doctor on the ship, and the anxious princess didn't know what to do.
The prince asked the boatman to find the nearest place to dock, and to find a doctor to treat the little county lord, and the doctor said that the nearest dock would also take a day.
The dark guard felt that it was better to wait for the princess to find a doctor, so he told Su Jin about leaving for Nanliang one day later.
If it was before, the prince would definitely blame Xie Jingchen for being too indulgent to Su Jin, but now that the little county lord is sick, the prince didn't say anything, let the boat slow down, and wait for Su Jin and them to catch up.
The king of Nan'an County trembled in their hearts, and asked the secret guard if he was leaving a message for Xie Jingchen when he carved words on the side of the toilet.
The Dark Guard admitted.
The king of Nan'an County chopped off his own hand, and the heart was gone.
If Xie Jingchen was in a hurry according to the hour, it should not be long before them, and they were delayed for another day, and they might have already run ahead.
They shouldn't stop, but catch up as soon as possible.
Inevitably delaying the illness of the little county lord, the king of Nan'an County confessed to the prince.
The prince brought a carrier pigeon, in order to prepare for emergencies, immediately wrote a letter to Xie Jingchen, and then asked the boatman to hurry as soon as possible.
When the carrier pigeon arrived in Xie Jingchen's hands, Xie Jingchen immediately ordered the boatman to turn around and go back.
Su Jin found out and asked Xie Jingchen, "How do you go back?" β
"Ruo'er is sick," Xie Jingchen said.
"Then we should hurry forward," Su Jin said.
"We are in front of them."
Su Jin, "....... β
One rushes forward, the other goes back.
Four hours later, the two ships met.
Xie Jingchen flew to the princess's boat with Su Jin in his arms.
The little county lord leaned on the princess's arms, his little face was pale and dignified.
Seeing Su Jin, the princess asked, "Is Yuan'er okay?" β
"Yuan'er is fine," Su Jin replied.
She hurriedly checked the pulse of the little county lord, figured out the cause, took the antidiarrheal medicine from the medicine box, mashed it and fed it to the little county lord.
After feeding the medicine twice, the little county lord was fine.
After two days of raising, the little face is rosy again.
After eight days on the boat, I switched to a horse-drawn carriage.
On this day, the weather was excellent and the sky was clear.
They finally arrived at the foot of Nanliang Kyoto.
Nanliang had long known that Daqi had sent the prince and the king of Nan'an County as envoys to congratulate him.
I just waited day after day, and I couldn't wait for anyone to come.
It wasn't until a few days ago that I learned that the princess had brought the little county lord with her, and she didn't leave slowly until she took care of the little county lord.
Zhao Xu wanted to go out of the city to greet him in person, but was stopped by Zhao Xiang.
King Ling had already decreed a few days ago to cede the throne to him, although he had not officially ascended the throne, he was already the new emperor of Southern Liang.
How can there be a reason for the prospective emperor to go out of the city to welcome the envoys who came to congratulate Daqi?
Zhao Xiang took this errand and greeted King Jing ten miles out of the city.
When I received someone, I learned that not only the prince and the princess were here, but also Su Jin and Xie Jingchen were there, in addition to the little princess, there were also two children.
Zhao Xiang is happy.
He likes children and knows that children are the heart of his parents.
is not valuing Zhao Xu, and will never be willing to let the child suffer from bumps.
The princess has not seen Zhao Xiang for more than ten years, when the princess's appearance was ruined and she was wearing a veil, Zhao Xiang asked a doctor to help her heal, but she was helpless.
I only remember that my face was scarred, but I never thought that after the scars faded, the princess's appearance would not be inferior to before.
Zhao Xiang and the princess only exchanged a few words of greeting, and then set off for Beijing.
Taking into account the little county lords, they didn't go fast.
And he didn't enter the palace, but arranged to stay in the palace.
Zhao Xiang explained, "Three days later, the palace held the enthronement ceremony of Xu'er, and the palace was busy at this time, and Xu'er would not be able to come to the princess to say goodbye later." β
"When Xu'er succeeds to the throne, a banquet will be held for the prince and princess to wash the dust."
The king of Nan'an County couldn't hold it back, and he asked Zhao Xiangdao, "Can we go into the palace to find Brother Zhao?" β
Zhao Xiang knew a few of them, and asked the guards to take them into the palace.
In the imperial study, Zhao Xu was reviewing the folds.
After the king of Nan'an walked in, his father-in-law wanted to tell Zhao Xu, but was stopped by the king of Nan'an.
quietly walked to the dragon case, and just as he was about to speak, he saw Zhao Xu take a piece of pastry and stuff it in his mouth, and then took a pen and dipped it in ink to write annotations on the minister's fold.
The corners of the king's mouth twitched, "This hasn't ascended the throne yet, do you want to work so hard and forget to sleep and eat?" β
A familiar voice sounded in his ears, and Zhao Xu suddenly raised his head.
Seeing the king of Nan'an, he was excited and choked in his throat.
The pastry in his mouth sprayed the king of Nan'an.
King of Nan'an, "....... β
