Chapter 185: The Palace
While thinking about it, he said solemnly: "You already know that Xishan is going to be encircled as an imperial hunting ground, right?" DID YOU KNOW? In addition to building a hunting ground, but also to build a palace? Is the Liuhua River going to be transformed into a source of living water in the garden of the palace? β
"What? Palace? β
Ruan Yunsi's composure that she had maintained was finally gone, she suddenly stood up, looked at Ruan Siqi in disbelief, and said loudly: "Liuhua River is the source of living water, how big is this?" Such a palace, even if it is compared to the imperial palace, is not much worse? This is a matter of labor and money, doesn't it mean that today's saint loves the people like a son and is a wise king? He...... How could he do such a thing? β
"Give me caution. (倩倩Chinese.)"
Ruan Siqi scolded his sister angrily, then looked around the front window and back window, and made sure that there was no one around, Fang lowered his voice and said: "The emperor is a Ming monarch, and this matter is also a matter of labor and money, but the problem is that now the emperor has money, he doesn't care about this labor and money, and he is a good emperor who loves the people like a son, and he is also a fun-loving emperor." Otherwise, Grandpa Su would not have become the backbone of those loyal courtiers, sister, do you understand what I mean? β
Of course, Ruan Yunsi understood what her brother meant, that is to say, once the Xishan Hunting Ground becomes a royal hunting ground, the palace will inevitably be built at the foot of the West Mountain, and at that time, not to mention her own factory, even the entire Jinfang Township, I am afraid that there will be a big change. The wasteland and homes that the Dai people have worked so hard to reclaim will also be lost again, and they are not the people of Dawu, so it is uncertain whether there will be compensation at that time.
"How...... How so? Brother? How so? Even if the emperor didn't care, wouldn't there be a single minister in the court who raised objections? I don't believe that I don't believe that so many ministers let the emperor do this, even if ...... Even if the treasury is full, it is not a small amount after all......"
Ruan Siqi sighed and said, "How can there be no minister to dissuade you?" But what's the use? Now apart from the little grandfather, who else can compete with Zhen Yan? The emperor was in the imperial city, he already felt depressed and panicked, and when he thought about it, he suddenly knew that there was such a fun place, so Zhen Yan said that the sky was all over the place, and you said, can the emperor still put it down? β
Ruan Yunsi's face was cloudy, and she knew very well in her heart that this was not so much Zhen Yan's revenge on herself, but as his revenge on Su Mingxi. It's just that I've become the unlucky guy who was getting shot while lying down. Otherwise, a small Zhong Xiu and a Li family would not have to work so hard at all.
"What about the little grandfather? He...... Why didn't he help with a word? He...... He's ...... because of my business No, I don't believe he's that kind of person. β
Ruan Yunsi clenched her fists and muttered to herself. Ruan Siqi listened for a while before she heard what she meant, and couldn't help but get angry and said: "Confused, sister, you are really confused, who do you think of the little grandfather?" He is a truly broad-minded seven-foot man, how could he do such an act of revenge because of what happened between you? Don't you know? The little grandfather was sent by the emperor to the northwest labor army half a month ago, but I am afraid that it is only half of the journey at this time.
"Huh? He...... He was sent to the labor army? β
Ruan Yunsi's eyes widened, and she was ashamed of what she had just thought, and she lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry brother, I just ...... I just can't stand this blow all of a sudden, and if you put it this way, my factory has no other way to go...... But that's my hard work, no, it's not just my hard work, it's more related to the livelihood of too many people, so I said nothing in a hurry, brother, don't take it to heart, in fact, I don't know who he is? I was just...... Alas! I just didn't know that he was sent by the emperor to work in the army. β
Ruan Siqi sighed, nodded and said, "Yes, how do you know about the open and secret battles in the court in this poor and remote country?" I'll tell you the truth, that day, the little grandfather Lao Jun was recommended by Zhen Shangshu. The little grandfather has a very high reputation in the army, and he has always been jealous of such a good thing by Zhen Shangshu, how can the old thing give up if he sharpens his head and fights for it? This is naturally to take away the little grandfather, so that he can act here. β
Ruan Yunsi said hatefully: "Could it be that the credit of the Jianxing Palace in the hunting ground can be better than that of going to the northwest to work in the army?" That is the best way to get closer to the military, and he will do such a thing that hurts others and is not beneficial to himself, just to take revenge, this person is really narrow-minded and will be retributed. β
Ruan Siqi smiled bitterly: "Sister, you think too simply, it is important to have a good relationship with the military, but who is the military?" Isn't that a spear in the emperor's hand? Getting the support of the military is comparable to making the emperor happy? Is it worthy of the supreme grace of the Son of Heaven? What's more, he may not be able to get the support of the military, after all, most people in the military are still close to the Su family. At this time, wouldn't it be more profitable to give up the labor army and take Su Mingxi away, build a palace for the emperor, and change a dragon heart to be comfortable? β
Ruan Yunsi stood stunned for a long time and muttered, "That...... According to my brother, this palace must be built? Leaving no room for manoeuvre? β
Ruan Siqi nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Yes, even if Young Master Su rushes back, I'm afraid he won't be able to dissuade the emperor, although his emperor is like a nephew in his heart, but as long as the emperor makes a decision, even if he is a real prince, there is no problem, not to mention that he is actually just a courtier?" β
When he said this, he patted Ruan Yunsi on the shoulder and sighed: "The reason why I came to tell my sister about this today is to let you be mentally prepared, you will definitely not be able to keep this factory, hurry up and make plans as soon as possible." I'll look around in the capital these days, if possible, let's find a piece of land in the capital, build a big factory, and then my brother and I will help you with some money, hehe, just wait for you to make money, just give your brother some expenses every year. β
Ruan Yunsi is worried at this moment, where does she have the heart to joke with Ruan Siqi? Hearing this, he couldn't help but glance at him, and said angrily: "Brother, everyone is sad to death now, and you still come to make fun." How do you say that you are also the prince of the Hou Mansion, the future Hou Ye, there are countless shops in the thousands of acres of fertile land at home, although it cannot be said that it is rich and rivals the country, but it is also rich and noble, I am embarrassed to say this kind of thing to me.
Ruan Siqi was giggling, but when he heard his sister say this, he frowned and said softly: "Sister, don't say it, you know that my father and I have never taken care of these properties in the family, your sister-in-law is a kind person, and it is good if my wife doesn't bully her, where do you dare to ask?" Since three years ago, I felt that the family property seemed to be getting less and less, but I just told my father, and I don't know why, he didn't care too much. Over the past year, I have become more and more aware of the family's financial constraints, you know that my wife is a luxury person, but in recent months, she has also known that she is thrifty, isn't this a big joke in the world? So, brother, I really plan to put the private money I have saved over the years with you first, and once there is something at home, I won't be completely blind. β
Ruan Yunsi was puzzled: "Listening to what you said solemnly, it's just ...... Is this so? Although the wife is mean and vicious, she has always been careful when it comes to money. That's it, as the saying goes, the heart of defense is indispensable, since my brother wants to put the private money here with me, but I don't know how much money you have? β
"Well, I'll do the math......" Ruan Siqi pondered for a while before he smiled a little embarrassedly: "It's not much, only two thousand taels of silver......
"Poof", before Ruan Siqi finished speaking, Ruan Yunsi squirted out the sip of water she had just drunk, she looked at her brother with wide eyes in disbelief, and said in a lost voice: "What...... What the? You have saved up for so many years to save 2,000 taels of private money? Brother, you ...... You're the prince of the Hou Mansion......"
"What about the prince of the Hou Mansion?" Ruan Siqi was ridiculed by his sister, and he was also a little embarrassed, gritting his teeth and saying, "Do you think I'm a little grandfather?" The emperor rewarded him with countless things, and he didn't need to return them to the public school. What about me? Hum! It's a miracle that I can save 2,000 taels of private silver under the hands of a person like my wife, right? You're still disgusted, huh! You really look at yourself now that you have a lot of money, right? Don't put your brother's two thousand silver in his eyes, hum! You're a little too frivolous. β
Ruan Yunsi thought about it carefully, too, her father liked that woman and indulged her very much, but it was not a fuel-efficient lamp, thinking that at the beginning, she had been preparing for a possible escape in the future since she was a child, and when she escaped from marriage, all kinds of jewelry and silver added up, and he only saved five or six hundred taels of silver, and his brother can now save two thousand, which is already very remarkable.
Because he smiled: "Not frivolous, not frivolous, alas! It's just that if my factory goes somewhere else, although it is troublesome, it will not be desperate. But...... What about others? "She is mainly worried about those Dai people, ordinary villagers still have a lot of compensation, don't look at this is a feudal society of all evils, but since Ruan Yunsi crossed, I really haven't heard of any forced demolition or anything like that.
Ruan Siqi couldn't delay here for long, she left without eating lunch, here Ruan Yunsi arrived at the factory worriedly, sure enough, she saw more than a dozen strangers along the way, and she knew that this time the change was already on the verge of being sent. There was hatred and anger in my heart, and more chagrin.
After coming back, he told Yun Niang and others about the matter, and immediately fried the pot, this factory embodies everyone's hard work, is everyone's hope, and now the emperor is just a hunting ground, but if it is the Jianxing Palace, it is not only Ruan Yunsi's factory that suffers, but other villagers will also be panicked, how about the compensation? This is the place where the ancestors have lived for generations, and now the emperor has built a palace, and no one is allowed to live within a radius of dozens of miles, but where do they want to move there when the time comes? β
Ruan Yunsi didn't expect this, and originally thought that the people would move happily with the silver. Now that Yun Niang said it, she woke up. This is not a modern society, take the compensation for demolition, where to buy a house, the ancient people regarded the ancestral land as the same as the sky, the emperor built a palace here, even if he gave more silver compensation, it was inevitable to complain.
