Zhiwan leisurely ate bird's nest porridge, listening to Poria cocos to tell the palace about the news, the corners of his mouth slightly curved.

Bai Xiang came in with pastries and said curiously, "Concubine Xian and Concubine Guifei didn't beat the queen, but the queen's face is allergic to pollen, where did the pollen come from?" ”

Poria thought for a while and said, "Wasn't it in the imperial garden at that time, there were no flowers in the imperial garden, and it was not surprising that there were allergies, but I heard that Concubine Xian and Guifei had been fighting for many years, and the emperor handed over the harem to the two of them, and I think the palace will be full of chickens and dogs sooner or later." ”

Zhuxiang also leaned over and said, "The palace is beautiful, but it's too dangerous, if the prince really becomes the prince, won't he live in the palace in the future?" ”

As long as I think of the little prince entering the palace, he still doesn't leave the prince of the county an inch, and he is almost killed, Zhuxiang is a little creepy, the palace is too terrible!

Mother Zheng listened to a few little maids talking, frowning slightly, the prince of the county is the eldest prince, and it is a matter of course to be named the prince, how many people can't ask for it, why can't they avoid it here?

But to be honest, she has lived in Linmoxuan for so many years, and her feelings for Linmoxuan are heavier than those for the palace, and she doesn't want to go back to the palace to live a life of intrigue.

Poria faked a cough, and smiled toothlessly, "The current situation is that the emperor wants to recognize our county prince, and the county prince does not recognize the emperor, so is he still a great prince?" ”

Bai Shao glared at Poria and said, "Be careful to let the prince of the county know that you are bent on the affairs of the military camp and beat you up." ”

Poria's face flushed, "Whoever cares, I'm just asking." The prince of the county was beaten, and that was also ...... He beat himself up! ”

The corners of Zhiwan's mouth twitched, and a picture was imagined in her mind. The picture is so beautiful that I can't bear to look at it directly.

And at this moment, the barracks are boiling hotter than ever before, the news is too exciting, their general is actually the eldest prince!

is still the emperor who wants to recognize but depends on his mood!

Chu Pei, Yuan Hao, Rong Jingxuan and King Chengjun conspired in the military tent.

Conspiracy theme: The eldest prince sacrifices himself for others, and pleases everyone with his rod, and everyone is happy to laugh when the time comes. Or is it better to be sad?

Chu Pei and Yuan Hao felt that they wanted to laugh and laughed. It's best to laugh with tears, preferably when those tears float to the wound.

Rong Jingxuan and King Chengjun felt that it was better to be sad, after all, it was a sad thing.

Hearing that the officers and soldiers had come in to announce that the future was coming, the four of them immediately stood up. He cautiously took the bamboo strip and went to the door of the big tent to greet him.

Ye Guiyue saw Chu Pei holding the bamboo strip in his hand for a while, his smile was extremely sinister, his expression remained unchanged, "Come on, General Chu can't wait for the bamboo strip so much, General Ben is willing to fulfill him." ”

Chu Pei jumped up and said, "Is there any mistake, you are the one who wants to hit the buttocks of the eldest prince." As a general, how can you go back on your word? ”

"I'm the eldest prince now?" Ye Guiyue asked lightly.

A bunch of people were dumbfounded, weren't you? The emperor has taken the initiative to recognize you, okay, Hanyuan Hall is discussing whether to make you the crown prince, okay?

Ye Guiyue dismounted, and a horse galloped over there, and the voice of the elder came, "Report!" ”

When they looked up, they saw an officer and soldier coming down from their horses. "General, the Sword Gate Pass is urgent."

Yuan Hao wondered. "Didn't you already know that the Jianmen Pass was in an emergency, why was it in an emergency again?"

In fact, what he wanted to ask was, was it in the wrong place, should such a big thing be entered into the palace, they are only responsible for training the government soldiers now.

"General Xida resisted desperately, and he couldn't hold it anymore," the officers and soldiers said hurriedly.

The faces of the crowd were solemn, and there was no longer the hippie smile of Fang Cai.

Entering the big tent and looking at the topographic map, if the Sword Gate Pass is breached, the enemy army will be able to break through all the way south, and may even go straight to Kyoto.

The Sword Gate Pass must not be lost, even if it is lost, it must be taken back at all costs!

Ye Guiyue and Chu Pei turned over and got on their horses and immediately entered the palace.

Half an hour later, Chief Manager Ye hurriedly came to inform the evening, "The princess of the county, the prince of the county will set off for the expedition tomorrow." ”

Zhiwan was stunned for a long time, "So urgent?" ”

Chief Manager Ye nodded again and again, "General Xida is in a hurry." ”

Knowing that he would caress his forehead at night, he will have 3,000 soldiers and horses, and when they go to the rescue, the daylily will be cold three or five times.

Zhiwan is not worried about the danger of going out, it is impossible for the emperor to put him in danger, not to mention that there are secret guards and ironclad guards, but he is gone, what should she do?

Zheng's mother asked Zhiwan, "The prince of the county is on the expedition, how should I pack this luggage?" ”

Zhiwan was also worried, she had the heart to make two sets of clothes for him to go on the expedition, but it was too late now, so she thought about it and said, "Prepare four sets of clothes, shoes and socks, and then prepare 100,000 taels of silver, and let the prince of the county buy it himself if there is anything missing." ”

Mama Zheng, "......." ”

Is the princess sure that this is for the prince of the county, not for the three thousand soldiers?

When Ye Guiyue came back, Zhiwan was counting the silver tickets, looking at Ye Guiyue and said, "I said before that I would build a water side at the border pass, can I go to inspect it?" ”

"No," the answer was neat and unquestionable.

Zhiwan pouted, and she knew that this would be the answer.

As soon as he thought of going on the expedition, he was a little reluctant to go on the expedition, "How long will this battle take?" ”

Before Ye Guiyue could answer, Zhiwan said again, "I heard that it is easy to pick up the princess of the enemy country on the battlefield, you won't pick one up too, right?" ”

A few of the maids in Poria almost didn't fall, but the answer of a certain county king made them even more broken, "So, I want to ask the emperor to take the princess with me?" ”

“…… Are you going to trade princesses with enemy countries? ”

"Most of the hostages are princes."

“…… Then be careful. ”

“……。”

It was night, full of sorrow and parting, unusually lingering.

The next day, the sun was three poles, and I didn't get up until late, and I didn't have time to eat breakfast, so I hurriedly got into the carriage and went to the city gate to see him off.

Yuan Hao, Chu Pei, and Rong Jingxuan, all with sad faces, asked each other how their parents were after going home yesterday, how many boxes did they pack?

Look at the cold wind and cold training again, and come over with the burden. Chu Pei was puzzled, "Do you still have a few carriages?" ”

Leng Feng was very proud," said the princess. On the battlefield, it is cumbersome to bring too many things, so everything is simple. ”

Yuan Hao nodded again and again, "That's what people who know the battlefield say, my mother can't wait for me to bring one or twenty sets of clothes, and I can't wait for me to marry my daughter-in-law last night and nag until midnight." ”

Chu Pei was also sad. He was originally the only seedling of the Chu family, who knew that he suddenly popped out that he was the son of the king of Zhennan. While kneeling on the Bodhisattva, the mother said, "The Chu family's children are so short-lived, and Pei'er is the son of the king of Zhennan." Let the fathers and fathers bless him with a safe return, and give birth to two sons to me in the future, and they will ...... me. ”

King Chengjun is more chic, his mother is not in Kyoto, and the things are packed by the subordinates, but there is also a big box.

Looking at the team again, there are grains, vegetables, and hundreds of carriages, which are still too many things. Can't take it away.

Rong Jingxuan said, "Shouldn't we leave something behind?" ”

Then he asked Leng Feng, "What did the princess of the county pack for the princess?" ”

"Nothing. Just four sets of clothes, shoes and socks from head to toe and 100,000 taels of silver tickets. ”

Chu Pei, "....... ”

Yuan Hao, "....... ”

King Chengjun, "......." ”

Rong Jingxuan, "....... ”

Why didn't my mother prepare money for me?

"I think we can all travel lightly," Chu Pei thought for a moment.

One hundred thousand taels. Three thousand, thirty taels for one person. If you buy a horse for ten taels or twenty taels, you can live for two years.

Rong Jingxuan faked a cough and asked, "What do you have to say?" ”

Leng Feng coughed violently, and he didn't say what the princess of the county told the princess of the county to kill him.

A few of them walked at the front of the line, and a few of them looked at them from the city gate, and Mrs. Rong and Rong Qingxu were there.

Rong Qingxu remembered his eldest brother's advice, afraid that he would forget it for a while, so he hurriedly said to Zhiwan, "Sister Zhiwan, my brother and they are on the expedition, and they said that the matter of the wine shop in the wine will be taken care of by you for the time being." ”

"Give it to me?" Zhiwan was stunned, "Why did you leave it to me, is there no one else in the shop?" ”

Chu Huan said with a smile, "My brother said that if the shop is handed over to you, you can make money, and you can't hand it over to others." ”

Mrs. Rong laughed when she heard this, this is the truth, when it comes to making money, who is as powerful as Princess Yuejun? And those recipes for winemaking are all given by her, and she takes care of them, so no one will worry.

But Zhiwan has a headache, she has no interest in reading accounts or anything!

Zhiwan thought that the emperor would lead the ministers of civil and military affairs to see him off, but half of the ministers did not wait, and as soon as the auspicious time came, the gongs and drums sounded, and the team moved forward.

Mrs. Rong and Mrs. Yuan wiped their tears, and Zhiwan stood aside and looked at it, feeling a little embarrassed, so she pinched her arm with her hand, and her eyes were red.

When the team walked away and couldn't see it, Zhiwan said, "I can take care of the wine in the wine, but I'm busy on the water side, and I may not have much time, why don't you help me?" ”

Mrs. Chu is overjoyed, the princess of the county is going to teach the two of them to manage the account books to make money, this is a good thing!

Rong Qingxu is even happier, which means that you can have nothing to do and play together.

Originally, I thought I could live a relaxed life for two days, but when I saw them carrying all the account books, I almost didn't break down.

After going down the city tower, suddenly the cold wind rode over, and Zhiwan looked at him wonderingly, "What's wrong?" ”

Leng Feng glanced at Poria Cocos, blushed slightly and said, "My subordinates are on the expedition with the prince of the county, I don't know how long it will take to come back, can Poria not be in a hurry to allow people?" And Bai Shao, she can't either,"

Poria was ashamed and angry, "You still want to marry two!" ”

Zhiwan glanced at Ling Ling, "Leng Xun is thin-skinned, he should be begging Leng Xun." ”

Poria pursed her lips, her face was blushing and dripping blood, she looked at Zhiwan with a smile, and Zhiwan chuckled, "Poria's family affairs are in charge of Yao's mother, I don't care." ”

The cold wind is urgent, and I don't know what to do, Yao's mother is still in the palace at this time.

Poria covered her face and urged him, "Why don't you hurry up and protect the prince of the county!" ”

Chu Huan giggled, "She agreed." ”

Leng Feng was overjoyed, turned around and rode away, leaving Poria stupid there, hearing the laughter of the four sides, and wishing to make a hole in the ground.

This fool, why can't you say such a shameful thing in private!

Chu Huan, Rong Qingxu and the county lord of Jining all arrived at Linmoxuan, Yuan Hao is an only son and has no sister-in-law, so Chu Huan pulled the county lord of Jining over. The county lord of Ji Ning shirked several times, "You should help your brother take care of the account books, how can I help?" ”

Rong Qingxu was quick for a while. muttered, "Why don't you be Brother Yuan's daughter-in-law, so that you can manage the accounts in a bright and bright way." ”

Originally, a few people were used to messing around in private, and there was nothing, but this time the county lord of Jining blushed and stomped his feet and scolded, "How can there be such a thing as you." Pulling me to work as a coolie doesn't count, you have to sell me. Then I'm talking nonsense, Chu Huan, you marry Brother Rong, so that we can look at the accounts together in the future. ”

Rong Qingxu married Chu Pei, and the lord of Jining County married Yuan Hao. Chu Huan married Rong Jingxuan.

Chu Huan was aggrieved, and his face was as red as a boiled crab, "I didn't say anything about you, why did you pull me up?" ”

Rong Qingxu felt that this proposal was good, "Instead of marrying someone we haven't met, how good is it to marry my eldest brother, when the time comes, let's grab the shop, and settle the account together?" ”

Chu Huan's face was hot, and the county lord of Ji Ning was more direct. "If you want to marry, then I will marry too."

Knowing that the night is broken, the laughing stomach and intestines are knotted.

Talk and laugh all the way. I don't know how to discuss it, but I really agreed.

Back to Linmoxuan, a few people first drank tea, and then went to the pavilion to check the accounts, several people are not young, and their parents have taught them to read the accounts. But when they saw the account book of the wine, several people's eyes were dazzled.

"It's so troublesome. I don't want to look at it," the county lord of Ji Ning was the first to give up.

Chu Huan also had a headache, "No wonder my eldest brother went into the study when he came back from the barracks, so much wine, it was okay to have a headache when he saw it." ”

Zhiwan drank the tea and said with a smile, "The more wine you sell, the more money you earn, not happy?" ”

A few people think about it too.

In the account book on the water side, it only takes half an hour to turn it down every day, and when I saw that there were many account books on the table, I also took a copy and looked at it.

She was looking at the books of winemaking.

Zhiwan glanced at it a few times, and his brows tightened, the production of wine was a little low, and the sake lees were basically useless.

Rong Qingxu noticed Zhiwan's eyes and hurriedly asked, "Is there a problem with the account book?" ”

Zhiwan shook his head, "The account book is fine, but the method of making wine is a bit wasteful, and the lees are too wasteful, if it is slightly rectified, the cost of winemaking can be reduced by two percent, and vinegar can be brewed." ”

Zhiwan suspects that the reason for the low yield of sake brewing is that the koji is not very good.

Chu Huan's brain was very flexible, "Brewing vinegar from sake lees?" If that's the case, why don't the three of us buy those sake lees, open a vinegar brewing field on the side, and then open a vinegar shop? ”

The county lord of Ji Ning was very excited, "Then we will also account for 20%, and the remaining 40% will be given to Sister Zhiwan?" ”

Rong Qingxu snorted and laughed, "We don't have the ability to ask the court to ban vinegar." ”

A few people burst into laughter.

After laughing, Zhiwan said, "The idea is good, you can give it a try, and now is the time when the autumn chrysanthemum is in full bloom, you can make chrysanthemum wine, and rice wine, which are not sold." ”

"Rice wine?" Chu Huan swallowed her saliva, she likes to eat rice wine, "It's not difficult to brew rice wine, and some will be brewed occasionally in the house, can it be sold?" ”

Zhiwan smiled lightly, it was even more beautiful than the beautiful chrysanthemum, "Every family can cook, why do people still go to the restaurant to eat?" ”

Chu Huan's throat was choked, his face was flushed, and he didn't know how to answer Zhiwan, Zhiwan smiled, "If you don't sell it, let's try it first." ”

Zhiwan won't admit it, she is hungry by herself, she has been in Dayue for so long, she seems to have never eaten rice wine once, and she couldn't help but buy it for half a month in her previous life.

There are ready-made glutinous rice in the house, and Zhiwan instructed Poria to say, "Go and ask the kitchen to take thirty catties of glutinous rice and soak it in cold water." ”

After the reconciliation, after lunch, the glutinous rice was almost ready, and after steaming, Zhiwan personally went to the kitchen and asked someone to put the steamed rice into a clean basin, and after the temperature dropped to more than 30 degrees, the koji was mixed in.

Press the rice with a spoon, dig a hole in the middle, then sprinkle some cool boiled water on top of the rice, cover it, and store it carefully.

The county lord of Ji Ning was a little greedy, "I can't eat it until the morning after tomorrow." ”

Rong Qingxu nodded again and again, "I think there should be a lot of people who like rice wine, and if you brew it yourself, you can't have too little at a time, how convenient it is to buy!" ”

After waiting for a day, this morning, the three of them gathered in Linmoxuan.

When the rice wine was opened, they smelled a strong fragrance, and Zhiwan poured boiled water into the basin, and then the maid filled a bowl for each of them.

Zhiwan ate happily, and said with a smile, "Take some out and send some to the princess." Send some more to the water side, everyone who is playing at noon today, and prepare a small bowl for each person. ”

The county lord of Ji Ning looked at the three major basins. Shaking his head, he said, "I think it might not be enough." ”

Zhiwan thought about it for a while and said with a smile, "It's also simple, use these rice wines to make rice wine glutinous rice balls, rice wine white fungus, and even rice wine simmered eggs." It's enough to use the whole on the water side, if you like it. We brewed and sold. ”

Chu Huan blushed and said with a smile, "Don't try it, this is definitely welcome." It's too square on the water side, and it's often delivered for free. ”

The county lord of Ji Ning smiled, "This is the clever part, let everyone like it first, and then sell it, don't you worry about not being able to sell it?" ”

Bai Shao asked her mother-in-law to send rice wine to the water side, and listened to Zhiwan's instructions, one person sent a bowl, and the popularity was staggering, and even many people ate it. It's a pity that there is only a small bowl per person.

The brewing cost of rice wine is not high, it is more than mellow, and it is not easy to get drunk. In addition, it can be appetizing and refreshing after drinking, has the functions of invigorating qi and nourishing blood, nourishing yin and nourishing kidneys, and is more beautiful, so it is more popular with ladies and ladies.

The three of them partnered to open a rice wine shop, and also hired a small servant to push the cart and walk the streets and alleys, and the sales of rice wine were amazing.

That street. Since the opening of the rice wine shop, there has always been a constant smell of rice wine. Hawkers often fight for a place, and the street, which was not very lively, is very hot.

Kyoto is so big that one rice wine shop is simply not enough, so a second and a third opened......

The boom in business has turned the three ladies into small wealth fans, and Mrs. Chu is speechless, why is it so difficult for them to make money, and in the hands of the princess of Yuejun, it is a matter of opening their mouths?

Not only rice wine shops, but also vinegar shop fanatics.

On this day, Chu Huan came to play with Zhiwan again, giggling at Chen'er Si'er, remembering a rumor, the county lord of Jining asked Zhiwan, "I heard the mother concubine say that the little prince defecated on the emperor's dragon case, is it true?" ”

"......." ”

"Is there such a thing?" Zhiwan is embarrassed, this stinky boy actually ran away from the emperor and did something wrong on the dragon case!

The county lord of Ji Ning nodded violently, "There have been rumors in the palace for a long time, saying that on the day the little prince entered the palace, Gonggong Xu secretly asked the little father-in-law to clean the paperweight and pen holder or something, and secretly took out the palace to exchange the silver, and later the imperial uncle knew about it and fined Gonggong Xu half a year's money...... ”

Rong Qingxu looked at the dust with a black line on his face.

Chu Huan giggled, "The things used by the emperor are thrown away and unwanted, if you take them out and sell them, any one of them will be enough for three years and five years, I heard that there have been many inexplicable things in the palace recently." ”

The county lord of Ji Ning trembled, "I heard that Jinhua Palace is haunted, the queen is scared, and she often beats the palace eunuchs inexplicably, and the harem concubines say that the queen is immoral, and she has asked the emperor to abolish the queen several times." ”

Rong Qingxu looked at the county lord of Ji Ning curiously, "It seems that someone sent a letter to the concubines of the harem, and everyone is dissatisfied with the queen, who do you say will send the letter?" ”

Chu Huan shook his head, "I think that person is very powerful, a few letters will make the queen anxious, and the queen mother is not happy." ”

The county lord of Jining nodded again and again, "There are many ministers who have impeached the Marquis of Qingyang recently, and there are many who originally supported the Marquis of Qingyang, but now they have inexplicably defected, which is really confusing, and the concubine said that the harem of the court has become a pot of porridge, which is a sign of chaos." ”

Rong Qingxu covered her lips and smiled, "Don't talk about this, it's scary, Guan Ling and King Lian Jun's family affairs are imminent, are you ready to add makeup to her?" ”

The county lord of Ji Ning smiled unkindly, "Guan Ling is heroic, if I give her a whip, she should be very happy, but when she arrives at Lian Wangfu, can she still use it?" ”

Chu Huan sighed, "You don't know, I get angry these days when I think of even the king of the county, how can he send a bowl to Guan Ling before me, I don't know what to send." ”

Rong Qingxu smiled, "I picked a bracelet." ”

The county lord of Ji Ning giggled, "Your bracelet must not be jade, when Guan Ling lived in the princess's mansion, she smashed a jade bracelet by patting the bracelet, and she said that she would not wear a jade bracelet in the future." ”

Rong Qingxu sighed, and the county lord of Ji Ning nodded again and again, "I'm not joking, it's true." ”

Chu Huan played with Chen'er's hand and said with a smile, "She will get married the day after tomorrow, shall we send Tian Makeup tomorrow?" Sister Zhiwan, are you going? ”

Zhiwan thought about it for a while and shook his head, "I won't go, Poria, bring me the makeup I prepared for Guan Ling." ”

Poria went back to the house and took the brocade box, and handed it to the county lord of Ji Ning in the evening, "Ming'er will transfer Guan Ling on my behalf." ”

The county lord of Ji Ning opened the brocade box curiously, and inside was a ruby hairpin, which was butterfly-shaped, with gemstones as wings, picked it up, and shone against the sun, emitting a dazzling light.

It's beautiful and it's amazing.

Ruby quickly became popular in Kyoto after selling ruby headdresses at the Kayokaku, and now who doesn't have two ruby hairpins is called backward.

It was precisely because of the popularity of the ruby headdress that there were only 100,000 taels of silver tickets for Ye Guiyue that night.

These days, half of the rubies obtained from King Chengjun have been used.

Zhiwan was very distressed, but he was not distressed by King Chengjun, he had a share on the water side, because he was one step late, he donated 160,000 taels to the imperial court...... (To be continued)
