Chapter 35: The Empress is sober

Shi Ling, who was forced to be a coachman, looked at the paper in his hand and fell into deep thought.

Although he is Feng Wuxi's hidden guard, he is actually responsible for the management of the Qianfeng treasury and the property under Feng Wuxi's name.

These five herbs are all extremely difficult to find.

After thinking for a moment, Shi Ling asked tentatively, "Your Highness, is it not costly?" ”

Feng Wuxi glanced at him and closed the curtain, "What do you think?" ”

Shi Ling: "......"

Got it.

The five herbs are estimated to be in the hands of some wealthy merchants or important ministers.

Qianfeng is merchant-oriented, and the status of businessmen is not lower than that of courtiers, so they cannot be coerced, but can only be tempted.

If it is in the hands of the courtiers, it will be easy to do, and it will be coerced directly.

Shi Ling, who is the housekeeper of Feng Wuxi, began to silently calculate the money in her private treasury and whether she could hold on until she married the Taifu.

Zhaoyang Hall.

Gu Yu was waiting at the entrance of the hall with a plate covered with a red cloth.

Seeing Feng Wuxi's figure, he hurriedly greeted him, "Your Highness, the divine needle you want is ready." ”

Feng Wuxi looked happy and unveiled the red cloth.

Inside the plate, eighteen white jade needles of different thicknesses and lengths exude a lustrous luster under the moonlight.

She picked one up, and her tentacles were warm, not as cold as a silver needle.

"Is there any leftover material for the warm jade of the carving needle?"

Shi Ling said quietly: "Your Highness, there is still a piece of material the size of an egg left. ”

"Send it, and bring a set of carving tools by the way."

Shi Ling looked at Gu Yu and asked with his eyes-still carving needles?

Gu Yu shook his head, saying that he didn't know either.

This piece of warm jade, the original size of Keju, the old craftsman who carved it heard that it was going to be carved into a needle, and called it a violent thing, almost slapping her and Shi Ling to death.

After carving the needle, only the size of an egg remains.

Shi Ling lowered his face and silently thought about how to make more money.

A piece of warm jade costs a million taels of gold, plus herbs worth an unknown amount of gold......

Their Highness's pursuit of the husband is really expensive.

With a long sigh, Shi Ling looked at the sky with a bitter face, calculating how much gold could be exchanged for the treasures in His Highness's private treasury.

Although His Royal Highness after enlightenment is good, it is just a little ...... No, it's too expensive.

The next day, as soon as the sky was bright, Feng Wuxi had already dressed up and sat by the window.

The hazy glow of the morning sun shone through the window, staining her fair skin with a faint glow.

The delicate and fair skin is comparable to an egg that has been peeled.

The long, curled eyelashes cast a beautiful shadow under the eyelids, which is cool and bright.

At this time, her slender white fingers, holding a carving knife, carefully carved the white jade bead in her hand.

Her expression was extremely focused, and for a while she couldn't tell whether her fingers were white, or whether the white jade beads were whiter.

On the low table in front of him lay a jade plate, covered with fine silk, with seventeen pearl-sized beads and a slightly larger oval bead.

When Mu Linyuan came over with a fold, he saw her leisurely carving warm jade beads, and said quietly: "Your Highness, what good is it for you to tire me to death?" ”

He and Fu Yuyan dealt with political affairs overnight.

She is good, and she still has the leisure to play jade carving.

Feng Wuxi didn't raise his head, and said lightly: "I'm tired and don't die." ”

"If you die, this palace will count you as a martyr."

Mu Linyuan choked.

Take a deep breath and calm down your desire to kill the prince.

He lifted his robe, sat opposite Feng Wuxi, put down the fold and poured a cup of tea.

Looking at the beads on the low table, I reached for them curiously.

Before his fingertips touched the warm jade beads, he was held against by Feng Wuxi with a carving knife, "Don't touch it." ”

Mu Linyuan retracted his hand: "Stingy." ”

Gu Yu came in with breakfast, and happened to hear Mu Linyuan's two words, and couldn't help laughing: "Master Mu, this bead is ten thousand taels of gold." ”

"What? 10,000 taels of gold? Mu Linyuan's eyes widened suddenly, and he subconsciously moved away from the low table.

began to calculate in his heart how many years it would take him to earn such a jade bead.

Without waiting for him to calculate, the jade bead carving in Feng Wuxi's hand was completed.

She looked at it with satisfaction, put the carved jade beads back into the jade plate, and rubbed her sour eyes.

Mu Linyuan subconsciously looked at the plate and said suspiciously: "Hey, why do you carve this?" ”
