Chapter 156: Draft Decree

He waited, and when she hit a wall, he knew that he was wrong, and when the time came, don't blame him for being polite. I really don't know the sky and the earth is thick, do you think that if you have two points of cleverness, you can mess around in the capital?

"Dad, don't worry, I understand!"

"Mother, my son has left beforehand, and I will come to see you tomorrow."

"There you go."

Qi and Xie Yunqian also hurriedly followed.

Mrs. Xie complained angrily, and Su and Xie Yunshu comforted her again and again.

The day after returning from Lingyu Temple, the emperor issued a decree, and the entire capital was blown up.

The emperor decreed that the draft would be held in early March of the following year, and from the date of the decree, women who had not yet been married, and who were over 14 years old and within 18 years old in the family of the third grade or above in the capital should participate.

In other provinces, a certain number of outstanding women are selected from within the age of 17 in accordance with the requirements of the Holy Decree.

This is taking into account the situation in other provinces, such as a place in the northwest that is less and a beautiful place in the south of the Yangtze River, and the number of places is naturally more.

The emperor has not been drafted for ten years, and there is no warning at all, and the matter is suddenly restarted, which naturally caused an uproar.

More importantly, in this draft, the harem is filled by the way, mainly for the princes, princes, some clansmen, and a small number of sons of powerful and important ministers.

At this moment, all the families moved, and they inquired about the news.

The princes' mothers and concubines were even more troubled for a few days.

They were all shocked, and they didn't know why the emperor suddenly made such a will, which disrupted all their plans.

Although they can still marry their chosen daughter-in-law after some operation, it is difficult to say whether there will be any accidents.

What's more, the selection of the crown princess, they can't control it anymore, this must be favored by the emperor and personally hand-picked.

Thinking about it like this, Concubine Xiang, Concubine Jing, and Concubine Shu of the harem all regretted it in their hearts.

But soon, they all adjusted their mentality, and who knows what will happen during the draft? Let's look at it, it may not be that there is no chance.

There are all families in the capital that are suitable for the draft conditions, and they are also busy, a few are happy and a few are sad, but the thunder, rain and dew are all Jun's grace, and the holy decree has been issued, so it must be obeyed no matter what.

Those who have the heart to seize the opportunity to climb the dragon and the phoenix have begun to choose clothes and materials, make jewelry, and hire various teachers of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting to teach their girls to strengthen their training.

According to the requirements of the holy decree, the two young ladies in Pingbei Hou's Mansion, Xie Yunshu and Xie Yunqian, will participate in next year's draft.

Qi and Xie Yunqian were overjoyed, so they could compete for the position of the third princess, everyone competed fairly, and there was no need to taboo Lu Mingyan.

Xie Yunqian is full of confidence, and the third prince obviously likes her, so he will definitely find a way to ask the emperor to marry.

Xie Yunshu was a little confused, she never thought that she would encounter this kind of thing one day!

Su Shi is very happy, in this way, her daughter will have the opportunity to be pointed out as a good family. Then she doesn't have to worry.

Xie Yunshu is not as optimistic as her mother, but she didn't pour cold water on her, let's watch it first, and then talk about it

The next day was the day when he made an appointment with the prince to meet at Qingyun Garden on the shore of Jiulong Lake, Xie Yunshu went out after breakfast, planning to go to Yangliu Lane to see the progress of the construction period, and then go to Qingyun Garden.

On the other side of Yangliu Lane, it has already become lively, the Qingyun Bridge has been built, and the store is already making the final decoration.

Xie Yunshu took Qingqing to look at it, very happy.

Du Ayan waited for her to see her and hurriedly came up to greet her, and said with a smile: "The eldest lady came just in time, and I want to report to the eldest lady, please set a good day for the eldest lady to open!" Three more days will be fine here. ”

Xie Yunshu nodded and smiled: "Thank you for your hard work!" When I went back, I looked at the days and told you, and you looked at the rest of the arrangements. How many days have you been building up publicity? ”

Du Ayan agreed, and nodded again and again: "I have hired a lot of people to spread it in this area, and now everyone knows that the owner of Qingyun Food Square has built this Qingyun Bridge to benefit the people, and I heard that Qingyun Food Square will open in the near future, and there will be dozens of snacks and delicacies that have not been sold in the capital, everyone is waiting!" These days, many people deliberately turn around, see our place, there is no curiosity, do not look forward to, the eldest lady rest assured, when the opening, there will be a lot of guests, a wide range of money, hehe! ”

Xie Yunshu and Qingqing both laughed.

Xie Yunshu was full of confidence, and smiled: "That's inevitable, wait and see, our Qingyun Food Square must be a place to make a lot of money!" You work harder, keep an eye on it, and send someone to the house to tell you if there is anything. ”

"Yes, Miss!"

Xie Yunshu was not worried about attracting customers at all, the first step was to promote in a large area around the city, and after a few days it was on the right track, everyone adjusted and became orderly, and then went to other parts of the capital to publicize.

The food is delicious, and the business will not become more and more lively, and the business will get better and better.

After grinding and grinding, I saw that the sun was rising high, and it would be noon if I didn't go.

Xie Yunshu straightened her clothes and hair bun, got into the carriage again, and went to Qingyunyuan.

An Tong and Biqiao didn't follow, and went to the house in Yuhu Hutong to teach how to make snacks.

When she arrived at Qingyun Garden, Xie Yunshu asked Qingqing to wait in the lobby, and the guy stepped forward to ask and ask for her identity, so he politely led her upstairs.

It was still the private room of the last time, the prince was dressed in a moon-white flower robe, a jade crown and his hair was tied up, and he was sipping tea in a leisurely manner, and there was no one else in the private room except him.

Xie Yunshu pushed the door in, looked at each other, and the prince got up and nodded with a smile: "Miss Xie!" ”

Xie Yunshu was about to salute, and the prince raised his hand: "No outsiders don't have to be polite." ”

"Yes" Xie Yunshu's heart was a little peaceful, still a little restrained.

The prince knew that he was very gentle, and while inviting her to sit down, he poured tea for her: "This is the best Qi red fragrant snail brought by Gu from the palace, it tastes good, Miss Xie try it." ”

Xie Yunshu smiled and thanked her, seeing that the tea soup was dark and red, clear and clear, and it was rich and elegant when you took a sip, with a faint orchid fragrance, which made people's eyes shine.

"It's really good, the prince is naturally not bad."

The prince smiled: "Gu brought a can, Miss Xie likes to bring it back after a while." ”

Xie Yunshu was stunned.

Tea is a dowry, the man is hired for tea, and if the woman accepts it, it is intentional.

At this time, the prince was pouring tea for her and sending tea again, Xie Yunshu always felt like . Didn't think much about it?

No, it's better to think about it too much, but it's just tea.

"Prince Xie!"

Xie Yunshu thanked him generously, but there was a little drum in his heart. Subconsciously think about this.
