Chapter 287: New Clothes and Charcoal

Qin Shumin looked at the wooden box that was carried in, and said with a frown: "Where did it come from?" ”

Xiao Rang hurriedly said: "Back to the emperor, it was Her Royal Highness the eldest princess who asked Lu Zhou to send it!" ”

Hearing that it was sent by Sister A, Qin Shumin immediately put down the red pen in his hand, got up and walked to a few large boxes.

"Your Majesty, the old slave will open it for you."

Qin Shumin's head.

Several large boxes were opened, and when he saw the contents inside, Qin Shumin was stunned, and then his heart seemed to be wrapped in warmth.

Three large wooden boxes, one of which contained the new clothes that Qin Shuhuang personally made for Qin Shumin.

Because of the rush of time, there is not much embroidery, but the stitches are fine.

Originally, Xiao Rang also said that he couldn't make his new clothes for the New Year, but he didn't expect that Sister A had already helped him make them in advance.

There are not only new clothes, but also cloaks, jade pendants, and purses.

In the remaining two boxes, one box contains all kinds of wool products, and the other box is a special product brought back from southern Xinjiang in Guangnan.

Along with these three big boxes, there is also a letter written by Qin Shuhuang to Qin Shumin.

In the letter, there are many thoughts about Qin Shumin, the affairs of Guangnan and southern Xinjiang, as well as the usefulness of wool and future plans.

Every word is for the sake of his and Dawu's future.

Before, the three years when Qin Shuhuang married out of the palace were the loneliest times for Qin Shumin.

It seems that the whole world has abandoned him, and even the sister he cares about doesn't want him anymore.

It made him lose interest in the world.

Now Sister Ah is "back".

Even if it is for the sake of Sister A, he wants to become the true supreme of Dawu!

Only in this way can Sister Ah live unscrupulously and live the life she really wants!

When she woke up early in the morning, Xia Qianwei couldn't help but shrink into the quilt.

Feeling the coldness in the dormitory, Xia Qianwei called the palace maid who was waiting in, scolded the palace maid with her head and face, and asked why she didn't put a charcoal basin in her bedroom.

The palace maid was scolded by Xia Qianwei and didn't dare to raise her head, and after a while, she said hesitantly: "Back to Concubine Wei, there is no charcoal distribution in the palaces now......

"The surname Xue, isn't there the surname Kong!"

The palace maid lowered her head, regardless of Xia Qianwei, and said in a low voice: "Concubine Xue and Concubine Kong have charcoal ...... there."

"Then they do, why don't I!"

"Concubine Xue and Concubine Kong bought it with their own money......"

"Then we can't buy it!"

"Wei Concubine Niangniang, we don't have any money......"

Xia Qianwei lifted the quilt and took the peach box with the silver ticket at the head of the bed, and after opening it, she saw that there were only two ingots of silver left in the peach box...... Less than twenty taels in total......

Xia Qianwei then remembered that she had used up all the silver she had saved before, and the twenty taels of silver were still the share of silver sent by the palace this month......

There has been no news from Xiao Dong since she recuperated from her injury, and it was not easy for her to inquire if she wanted to, after all, Xiao Dong was recuperating in Xiao Rang's yard.

She is detained every day to learn this and that, on the surface, she is the emperor's former maid, she is an orphan, if the emperor does not give silver taels, she will not dare to reveal her true identity at all, then it is even more impossible to ask the princess regent or the Xia family for silver.

Xia Qianwei found that for a charcoal basin, she didn't know what to do!

"Help me dress up, I'm going to see the emperor!"

The palace maid knelt on the ground, her head bowed lower, "Shao Gongzheng said, you must pass the small test to have a chance to meet the emperor......"

The scumbag Xia Qianwei almost collapsed after hearing this, and angrily smashed a lot of things in the dormitory to calm down her emotions.

smashed it like this, accidentally smashed her only hand stove, and when she went to class, she didn't even have a hand warmer.

After the class, Xia Qianwei got another inferior class from Mr. without exception.

She glanced at the first-class Kong Danqing with disgust.

Shao Gongzheng said today that Kong Danqing learned the best, and if this continues, on Chinese New Year's Eve, only Kong Danqing is qualified to accompany the emperor to the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

At night, a woman's angry scream suddenly sounded in Kong Danqing's palace.

The things that Kong Danqing's family finally sent into the palace for Kong Danqing were intercepted by Xia Qianwei!

It didn't take long for Xue Ruzhen to hear the news that Kong Danqing and Xia Qianwei were fighting.

I don't know if it was too cold this winter that aroused the anger in the hearts of Kong Danqing and Xia Qianwei or what's going on, but I heard that the two of them scratched each other's faces.

The palace maid brought Xue Ruzhen a charcoal basin.

Xue Ruzhen's parents died early, and he began to learn to be a family with his grandmother at a young age.

Although the Xue family is a family, it is not a huge wealth, except for poetry and books, the family background is just solid.

Xue Ruzhen knows how to be frugal in order to live well.

Before winter, she knew that the palace would not give charcoal to the harem halls a few years ago, so she bought charcoal in advance and stored it.

It's not a good charcoal, but it's enough for heating.

Once, she passed by the Qinzheng Hall and saw Xiao Neiguan taking the little eunuch out to exchange for charcoal, and the exchange was also for this ordinary charcoal.

She knew that the man was like her in private.

Although he couldn't meet in person, Xue Ruzhen felt that the two of them seemed to be getting closer.

The night became quieter and quieter, and when Xue Ru was really ready to rest, Xiao Rang brought someone to send a wooden box.

Xiao Rang said with a smile: "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess entrusted the old slave to transfer it to Concubine Xue. ”

Xiao Rang left his things and took people away.

Xue Ruzhen opened the wooden box, and inside was all kinds of rituals she needed.

There is also a letter in it, telling her about the recent situation of the Xue family, her grandmother's health is very good, and her younger brother's studies have progressed.

When she was about to ask someone to put the wooden box away, she glanced out of her corner and suddenly saw something.

She crouched down to check.

This thing is spread on the very bottom layer, separated by a baffle.

She had just seen it because of a little silvery frost on the edge of the thing.

Now remove the planks and you'll see the whole thing.

It's a silver frost charcoal that can only be used by the royal Ouchi!

Now the use of the palace is controlled by Concubine Liu Gui, and only two people in the palace can use this kind of charcoal, that is, the emperor and Concubine Liu Gui.

It is impossible for Concubine Liu Gui to distribute silver frost charcoal to the palaces, so it is needless to say who the rest of the person is.

Thinking that Qin Shumin himself used ordinary charcoal, but sent the silver frost charcoal to her through the hand of the eldest princess, Xue Ruzhen's eyes were slightly wet.

The emperor is still the man she saw in the eldest princess's mansion and made her fall in love.

She still doesn't regret entering the palace.

……

Half a decade later, the caravan of the Stone Drum Academy arrived at the outskirts of Beijing, the destination of the capital.

After the caravan of the Stone Drum Academy went to the capital to sell goods this time, they actually planned to go to the four bazaars on the outskirts of Beijing to buy goods, which Qin Shuhuang did not expect.

The four bazaars in the four counties on the outskirts of Beijing have only been held for three months, but they did not expect that the fame has already spread to the ears of the Shigu Academy.

Qin Shuhuang really wanted to follow the caravan to see the bazaars in the four counties on the outskirts of Beijing, but he didn't have that time.

After separating in the suburbs of Beijing, Qin Shuhuang had to hurry to Beidi.

It has been delayed for so long, and the envoy team who wants to catch up with Liu Renci is afraid that there will be a hard run.

Fortunately, in the days of the caravan, there was a caravan to take care of, and Qin Shuhuang Xie Xuanye's spirit was good.

Bidding farewell to the caravan, the group changed into the warmest winter clothes and rode to Beidi.

When he was sleeping in the open at night and boiling hot water, Qin Shuhuang found that the boiling water was poisoned!
