Chapter 548: I Have an Idea
By the time the lunch in King Jing's Mansion was ready, Zhu Junyang had not yet returned, and Princess Jing and Xiaocao thought that he had been left in the palace by the emperor for lunch. Because of the presence of Wu Junling, a foreigner, King Jing's Mansion was divided into two tables for men and women, separated by a screen. At the table outside, only King Jing and Shizi sat down.
Halfway through lunch, Zhu Junyang hurried over from outside. As soon as he entered the courtyard gate, someone told him that Miss Yu was here, and when he entered the flower hall, he found that only his father and brother had eaten without saying a word. Just as he was hesitating, he heard the crisp and sweet voice of the little girl coming from inside the screen, and was about to turn in, but was stopped by his father: "There are female guests inside, if you haven't eaten, just sit here and eat?" ”
Zhu Junyang sat down quite reluctantly, picked up the dishes and chopsticks handed over by his subordinates, and listened to the jokes and chatter inside. He knew that this little girl had always been in the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and he didn't know if she came to him this time because of her mother's concubine.
"Father, Xiaocao came today, did you say what happened?" Zhu Junyang listened for a while, but didn't get the answer he wanted, and couldn't help but ask King Jing, who came back before him.
On weekdays, the family sits together and eats lively, and the concubine also gives him a few chopsticks from time to time to eat his favorite dishes, but now he has to face two stinky boys, eating the food dryly, King Jing is quite unhappy in his heart, so he said with a little anger: "You Laozi and I just came back, where do you know what they said?" ”
"That'...... When Xiaocao greeted you, was the expression on his face happy, or was it a little sad? Zhu Junyang is afraid that the little girl will encounter any difficult problems, and she will not be able to eat well if she has something in her heart.
King Jing glared at his youngest son and said unhappily: "How can you still have a long face when you ask someone to say goodbye?" Xiaocao's girl is so sensible, even if she has something in her heart, she won't put it on her face to worry others. When you ask this, don't you deliberately make things difficult for you? ”
Princess Jing's laughing voice came from inside: "Little grass girl, what are you looking for Yang'er, hurry up and say it." lest he have a stomachache at this meal! ”
When Zhu Junyang heard that the little girl was looking for herself, he stretched his neck, for fear of missing a word in her words. I only heard the little girl eat and laugh a few times, and a sweet and crisp voice came out: "Actually, it's not a big deal." I'm going to organize an outing in two days, and I don't know if you, a busy person, are available to participate. ”
The little girl finally listened to his words, and she wouldn't have a fruit-picking party like last time, and she didn't expect him. However, before he was happy, he frowned again, the little girl finally invited him once, but he received the imperial mission and needed to leave the capital for a while. The emperor is really right, he doesn't assign tasks in the morning, he doesn't assign tasks in the evening, and he is sent out when the little girl is invited to travel. He can't be by her side, and the little girl doesn't know how disappointed she is. (King Yangjun, you think too much!) )
"Princess Duan's fiftieth birthday next month, because she loves pearls alone, so the emperor wants to send a pearl crown to her. It's hard to find a pearl in good condition, let alone a pearl with nine thumb-thick pearls. Even in the treasury of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, only one was barely found...... Therefore, this morning I entered the palace and received the emperor's order to purchase pearls. Zhu Junyang was afraid that the little girl would be unhappy, so he explained to her in detail, hoping that she could understand her hardships.
When Yu Xiaocao heard this, she suddenly came to her senses. If the top-grade pearls can be found easily, the emperor will not send his right-hand man to go in vain. Experienced pearl divers on the beach have their own fixed sales outlets, and they can easily find them, and they may not have goods in their hands. Those pearl sellers, if they have the best pearls in their hands, who doesn't hide them, or sell them at a high price, and wait for you to buy them? Those who can afford to buy top-quality pearls either have money or power, and who is willing to transfer pearls to others? Even if you are an envoy sent by the emperor, you can't force you to buy and sell, right?
So...... Yu Xiaocao's eyes rolled and asked, "Princess Duan will have a birthday next month, and there are still eight top-level pearls left, and the time is tight and the task is heavy." Do you have a plan in mind? ”
Zhu Junyang was also confused in his heart, as soon as he came out of the palace, he went straight to the inner courtyard, and he didn't have time to gather the staff around him to discuss this matter in the long run. However, listening to the little girl's excited and somewhat expectant tone, it seems that she has something to say. This girl has always had a lot of ideas, maybe she can give him feasible advice.
"What's the point? Ye Zheng is at a loss! It's hard to find one, let alone eight, of the top pearls. The emperor didn't deliberately make things difficult for people! Zhu Junyang deliberately pretended to have no way at all, and replied with a sigh.
"The third! As a courtier, how the emperor explains, you can do it, where is so much nonsense? The emperor handed over such an important matter to you, that is to value your ability, you should go all out and share the emperor's worries! King Jing took into account that there were outsiders inside, glared at his youngest son, and said a few high-sounding words.
Zhu Junyang squeezed his eyes at his father, sighed a long time, and said weakly: "Aren't I so worried that I can't help it?" No one is allowed to complain a few words! ”
"I have a rather immature idea, I don't know if I can help!" After all, this is an errand assigned by the emperor, and even the omnipotent King Yangjun is at a loss, so she is naturally a little girl who can't talk too much.
"Oh? What do you think, let's talk about it......" Zhu Junyang couldn't sit still, he couldn't wait to pull open the screen, pull the little girl out, and ask carefully.
"Ahem!!" King Jing cleared his throat and said with a slight warning, "You don't talk about food, you don't talk about business, and you don't talk about business when you eat." Eat first, and go to the study to talk! ”
King Jing also has his own concerns, although the girl of the Wu family looks good, but her superb mother, as well as her previous practices, makes King Jing look down on her. The tasks assigned by the emperor must be cautious, and don't be disturbed by some well-intentioned people. Recently, the younger son has been in the limelight in the DPRK, and many of his political enemies are looking for opportunities to stumble on him.
In the following lunch, we really achieved "food without sleeping", and the speed of everyone's eating was significantly improved. Wu Junling knew that the next thing was not something she could mix, and as soon as she finished eating, she didn't even drink a sip of tea, so she said goodbye and left.
Princess Jing looked at her departing back, and said with emotion: "Ling'er, this girl, I have observed a few times, but I have changed a lot. If she weren't the mother, she would be a good girl. ”
Zhu Junyang looked at Wu Junling's gaze, as if looking at an irrelevant stranger. In his eyes, she is an irrelevant person, who can't change or not, what does it have to do with him? As long as he no longer pesters him and comes to talk to his mother to relieve his boredom, he will not stop him.
Zhu Junyang led Xiaocao to the outer study, and several staff members who rushed over after getting the news were already waiting in the study. They had heard about the task assigned by the emperor, and they were discussing it enthusiastically. However, until the master came in after eating, they didn't seem to have come up with any good countermeasures.
The staff greeted the master and found that there was a little girl behind the master. The rumors about the master in Beijing, the staff still heard a little. Some say that the master is pedophile, some say that the master has a poor vision and falls in love with the rural girl, and some say that the master first strikes to force Miss Yu to occupy her...... But rumors are rumors after all, and it's better to see them.
This little girl who is not tall, has a delicate face, and is a little childish, is she the rumored heroine? looks like a teenager, does the master really have a pedophile fetish?
"Cao'er, didn't you just say that there is a way to deal with pearls? Come and hear it! Not only did Zhu Junyang look like he was waiting for her to speak, but the others, including King Jing, who came uninvited, also focused their eyes on her, obviously with a bit of disbelief and scrutiny in their eyes.
Mr. Shen, who had a white beard among several staff, had disdain on his face: they discussed for a long time, but they didn't dare to say that they could come up with a practical and feasible solution, a yellow-haired little girl, what good advice could there be?
Lu Wenxuan, who was younger among the staff, was more curious in his eyes. If you want to say that this Beijing is in the limelight, in addition to her own master, there is also this little girl in front of her. It looks white and pure, and the text is weak, if there is really any difference, the eyes are bigger, the skin is whiter and finer, and it doesn't look much different from the ladies in Beijing.
But doesn't the old saying say that "people can't be good-looking", people can earn a glorious future for their family with their single-handed planting skills, not to mention, but also bring huge profits. Greenhouse vegetables, "Hua Xiangrong" beauty club, Yu Ji Pharmaceutical...... I heard that the master's "heaven and earth" entertainment club in the suburbs was also the plan given by the little girl in front of her.
Thinking about the daily income of the entertainment club, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a daily income. In particular, the betting horse market is simply full and popular throughout the capital. This little girl, how many ghost ideas there are in her little head, he expressed curiosity.
In the face of so many curious, scrutinizing, or skeptical eyes, Yu Xiaocao did not show any timidity at all, and said generously: "My ideas may not be so mature, let's listen to them." The temperature is just right for pearl diving. So, why not have a pearl diving competition. Widely publicized in the fishing villages along the coast, with generous prizes and honors, to attract experienced pearl divers to participate. The competition ends in the middle of next month, as long as you can get the pearls together before the end of the month, Ruizhi, your errand will be successfully completed? ”
Yu Xiaocao's idea is also a temporary idea, and it may not be so perfect. However, listening to the ears of the staff, it was like a treasure, and the heart full of confusion suddenly became bright.
