In the East Palace, Concubine Su sent someone to find the prince.

"Your Royal Highness, Niangniang bitter summer, the meals made in the imperial kitchen, Niangniang didn't eat much, I wanted to eat a mouthful of Linggua, but the two that His Highness gave to Niangniang have been eaten, Your Highness ......"

After listening to what else the prince should do, he instructed the attendant on the side, "Go to Qi Ya's shop and buy another car, and divide a few more everywhere." Concubine Su gave birth to an imperial heir and was meritorious, and she was rewarded with two more. ”

"Yes. The slave ordered someone to do it. The waiter went out.

The palace people who came to pay tribute breathed a sigh of relief, if this matter was reported to the crown princess and Concubine Wei, I am afraid that they would be ridiculed. Fortunately, Niangniang added another son to the prince last month, and the prince valued him a little.

He saluted the prince and bowed down.

After the people left, the prince discussed with his staff, "Father and the emperor ordered the mausoleum households to plant mausoleum melons in half of the fields next year, fifty households in one mausoleum, and nearly 1,000 mausoleum households in the entire imperial mausoleum, even if each household plants two or three acres, the output of mausoleum melons next year is quite huge, and this matter cannot be handed over to Qi Yaqi pet shop to do." ”

That Qi Ya shop, behind it is the Jiang clan, who has made enough money in the past few years, who in the capital is not jealous?

It is also flowers, birds, fish and insects, all kinds of bath balms, all kinds of overseas oddities, glass and pearls, and the money earned is afraid that the sea will go.

His two good brothers, King Qin and King Chu jumped up and down behind their backs, if it weren't for the protection of Uncle Qi Wang, I am afraid that they would have been eaten and wiped clean by King Qin and King Chu.

Now the store has signed an agreement with the mausoleum on the other side of the imperial mausoleum to collect melons, and there will be so many melons planted next year, and the Jiang family wants to swallow them alone, but I am afraid that it will not work.

"Your Royal Highness, this matter is the emperor's order, and the entire imperial mausoleum will follow the cultivation of melons, only the Jiang family wants to do a unique business, I'm afraid it can't." I am afraid that this matter will be handed over to the clan and the Lingling Cheng side to jointly co-ordinate, and the Jiang side branch as a merchant can only get a piece of the pie.

You can't do it all by yourself.

"The prince might as well send someone to the sect to see who is in charge of this matter." The prince has a lot of industries under his name, but there are few such good businesses for a pound of melons.

The prince quickly discussed with his staff and sent someone to meddle in the melon business next year.

King Chu of Qin, who had the same idea as the crown prince, was not far behind, and the prince asked the person in charge one step earlier, grabbed half of the melon business early, and crossed the clear road on the emperor's side.

One mu produces 2,000 catties of melons, as long as the total sales of 500 mu of melons are sold, one catty of 100 wen, it is a business of 100,000 taels of silver, and this is only on the surface, and then get some seeds, their Zhuangzi will be planted, and they can make a lot of money in a year.

The King of Qin and the King of Chu would not let go of such a good thing.

"Are you sure King Yue didn't interfere in this matter?" King Qin asked the people below.

King Qin's staff nodded, "Sure." King Yue has no heirs, and it is estimated that it is useless to ask for so much money. Since the summer solstice festival was seriously ill, he has been recuperating in the palace. In the past, he occasionally went to the Xiangdian to copy scriptures for the first emperor, but then he stayed at home. ”

"Are you sure you want to stay at home?" King Chu asked.

"Sure. The entrances and exits of the mausoleum area, the sentry have been asked, and the entry and exit lists have been checked, and even the Gonggong Cao beside the king of Yue has rarely gone out in the past few months, and it is estimated that the king of Yue will be relieved in the palace. ”

In the earliest days, Cao Cuo often went out to ask for medicine for King Yue, and then gradually stopped going out, for fear that he knew that King Yue's medicine stone was ineffective, and no miracle would happen, so he gave up looking for a miracle doctor.

King Qin and King Chu glanced at each other, and they could see the smiles in each other's eyes.

"My seventh brother is pitiful, when he returns to Beijing in the future, I will ask my father for instructions, and give him a child from the next clan, so that he will not be empty in the future."

The King of Chu also laughed, "If the seventh brother takes a fancy to the son in my house, I will also pick it with him." ”

"The righteousness of the king of Chu." The staff complimented him.

Not only did the East Palace and the King of Qin and the King of Chu want to share the cup of Linggua, but the rest of the people are also blushing and ready to move.

Jiang Mansion, Jiang Xiang can listen to reports everywhere, as stable as Mount Tai.

The two sons, Jiang Xuyang and Jiang Wentao, stood aside and watched their father write a secret letter to King Yue.

Seeing that his father had written it and stuffed it into the envelope, he said, "Father, we don't need to remind the prince to prepare early, in addition to the Lin family, sign some more acquisition agreements?" ”

The Lin family planted five acres of linggua this year, which was also planted at the behest of King Yue, and signed a five-year purchase agreement with his family in the name of Qiya Shop as early as possible.

The emperor ordered the entire mausoleum to follow the planting, and let the Lin family produce seeds, all of which were convenient for the Yue King and the Lin family, and now the business is changed hands and put on the side of the clan and the princes, so didn't the Yue King make a wedding dress for others?

"The imperial mausoleum was originally the land of the royal family, and if it was distributed to the mausoleum households, it did not mean that it was the mausoleum households' own fields. Now that the emperor has decreed that the mausoleum households should plant melons in the fields, naturally how did the royal family tell the mausoleum households to come, and you still want to intervene? It is not easy for King Yue to fall the five acres of the Lin family. ”

And King Yue now doesn't rely on the shops in the capital to lay golden eggs.

Jiang Xiang got the secret report of the king of Yue, and vaguely learned about the business situation of Yuedi, and Jiang Xiang was very relieved. Otherwise, those tens of thousands of soldiers and horses will not be able to eat it just for a month.

"The glass business is already eye-catching, or the prince has a vision, and he sent a hundred percent of the dry shares to Prince Qi early, so he saved it, otherwise do you think the glass business can be protected in the name of the side branch of our Jiang Mansion?"

Jiang Xiang looked at Jiang Xuyang, who was not moving like a mountain on the side, and saw that the eldest son was now more and more stable, and his heart was satisfied, looking at the younger son who was jumping up and down on the side, his brows twisted again, "You learn from your eldest brother, don't be in a hurry to jump up and down when something happens, you are not small now." ”

Thinking about the marriage of his youngest son again, and thinking about it again, the county lord of Deyang has been delayed for three years for this little beast, and he is even more worried.

Get up and hand the sealed secret letter to the eldest son, "Let someone send it to King Yue." With that, he walked out.

"Father, where are you going?" Jiang Wentao stepped forward to stop him. The words are not finished, the matter is not explained clearly, where is this going?

Jiang Xiang glared at him, "Where are you going?" I'm going to find Prince Qi for a drink! Choose a good son-in-law for Deyang with him, see which son in Beijing can be a match, and give it early, so you don't have to delay Deyang. ”

Jiang Wentao paused suddenly, so anxious that he couldn't do it, for fear that his father would really help Deyang choose someone else, and "Father ......" wanted to hold him, but he paused.

Jiang Xiang glanced at him and sighed deeply.

This year, no matter what, we have to promote the marriage of Deyang and Wen Tao, if the emperor hinders it again, let Prince Qi worry about it, after all, his daughter is also nineteen, and it is not good to stay.

If it doesn't work, let Deyang choose another son-in-law early, so that the child will not be delayed.

"Why don't you go to the Qiya Library and watch! Didn't King Yue send another batch of books? You don't have to arrange for someone to print and copy them. ”

Jiang Wentao opened his mouth and bowed his head in response, "Yes, I'll go." ”

After Jiang Xiang left, Jiang Wentao grabbed Jiang Xuyang, "Big brother, my father won't really discuss with Prince Qi to choose a good son-in-law for Deyang, right?" ”

Jiang Xuyang looked at him anxiously and smiled, "Don't worry, if Prince Qi wants to choose another good son-in-law for Deyang, it will be given a long time ago, and it will be delayed until now?" ”

According to him, Prince Qi and Princess Qi took a fancy to their younger brother early, but the emperor had a concern for his father and didn't want the two families to marry, so he ordered the clan to keep blocking him, but now Deyang is also nineteen, and if he doesn't marry, I'm afraid it will affect the marriage of other women in the clan.

There has to be a result.

patted Jiang Wentao on the shoulder, comforted him a few words, and said: "You helped the prince run the library before, and collected books from all over the world in the name of the library, didn't you get several unique ancient books, as well as a few books from the emperor of the previous dynasty, didn't your father ask you to sort them out and send them to the prince and Changzhi, you have copied them all?" ”

Jiang Wentao nodded, "It's copied." After a while, I took it to the eldest brother, and the eldest brother sent it over, and there were many ancient calligraphy and paintings collected from all over the country, which was enough for the prince to sell for a while. ”

"That's good." Jiang Xuyang nodded, seeing that he was anxious, he comforted him again, "Prince Qi has been close to our family over the years, and our family has been tied to the boat of King Yue early. So even if your father doesn't look at your mind, he will do his best, so don't worry. ”

"Who, who's worried." Jiang Wentao blushed and refused to admit it.

Jiang Xuyang smiled, "You just have to help the prince run the library with peace of mind, the library has more and more books in recent years, and it is open to students all over the world for free, resulting in students from all over the world going to Beijing early in the spring every year, soaking in the library every day, and benefiting a lot, and students from all over the world are grateful for the grace of the prince to open the library for free." You help the prince manage this matter, pay attention to it secretly, and don't let people slander the reputation of the prince. ”

"Big brother, don't worry, I know that this matter is important, and I don't dare to relax for a moment."

The two brothers separated, and Jiang Wentao went to the Qiya Library in the west of the capital. At this time, it was lunchtime, but as far as the eye could see, there were still people in the library.

The library has five floors, except for the top floor, which is a unique ancient book collected from all over the world, which is limited to people with fame and a certain status, and the remaining four floors are open to students from all over the world.

There are four floors, divided into categories, and each layer has a different collection of books. Each floor is surrounded by tall bookshelves with books of all kinds, and long tables and chairs in the middle for everyone to sit and read.

There is no restriction on the identity of the library, you can enter the library to read books, and no one will rush to sit in it for a day, and you can read or copy it inside, and you can also borrow books according to household registration and road guides. In addition to borrowing a book a day and charging five pennies, reading and copying books in it does not charge a penny.

Since the opening of the library, it has attracted the attention of all students in Beijing. In just one year, it has attracted the attention of students from all over the world, and attracted students from all over the world.

Just because there are so many books in it and the content is extensive, it is rare in the world.

The family also has a library, but it is never open to the public, let alone on this scale, let alone borrowed and copied. Keqiya Library, open to students all over the world for free, can be borrowed or copied, attracting countless people to enter the view.

Not to mention ordinary students, even students from high-ranking families may not be able to read so many books.

Before the opening of the museum every day, the entrance is full of students waiting to enter the museum. There are too many people, Jiang Wentao has no teacher, and invented the function of making an appointment, making an appointment early, and he can't enter the museum when the appointment is over.

Otherwise, as soon as they all crowd in, this library will be crowded and collapsed.

Even if the daily reservation quota is full, there are still many people waiting at the door of the library, hoping that someone inside will come out and quickly fill the seats.

It attracted the attention of all parties for a while. There was a lot of discussion, speculating about King Yue's intentions.

Two students from other places, a few days in advance of the appointment, until today can enter the library, as soon as they enter the library, by each layer of this dense collection of books shocked to the jaw almost hit the ground.

"God, we don't have as many books in the city as we have here." This row of shelves is densely packed, and there are four floors! God, how many books is this!

"I heard that the fifth floor is a lone ancient book, and there is not even a palace one." A student stared at the stairs up the fifth floor, and tears of envy almost fell.

"When you and I have fame, we will be able to go up."

Seeing that his friend was still staring at the stairs going up to the fifth floor, he explained: "Don't complain in your heart, people don't let us go up, we can come in, we are already glad." I heard that I couldn't get in after waiting in line for days. ”

"What nonsense, am I such an ignorant person? You see in our county, the Li family, a few books, built a library, and everyone has to stutter and beg around with all kinds of benefits to go in and take a look, and they can't stay for half an hour before they have to come out, you look here, free to read books to students all over the world. ”

He saw it all just now, many of them were children of poor families, and they were still wearing straw sandals on their shoes.

I heard that there are also books copied here, and some books for the library can be copied, and you can get a lot of copper coins! Many poor students from other places come in and copy books while reading books to earn a few money for food and housing, otherwise it is not easy to live in this place in the capital, and they will go out as beggars.

"I heard that the master behind this library is King Yue."

"Really? Isn't it the Jiang family? ”

"Shhh, it's King Yue. I heard that King Yue understood the hard work of the students and wanted to open up the people's wisdom, so he opened this free bookstore. I heard that I want to save some good fortune for my deceased relatives. ”

"A deceased relative? It's ...... first."

"Shhhh Shut up! Let's just think about the good of King Yue, don't talk around with a big mouth, when the time comes, no one will be able to save you. ”

They all know who the deceased relatives of King Yue are. In fact, nine years ago, who doesn't know what happened? Say that Lu Guogong and the prince rebelled? The children didn't believe it.

The first prince was crowned the prince when he was young, so he could use it to rebel?

It's just that everyone doesn't dare to discuss royal matters. I didn't dare to mention it.

Thinking of King Yue, who had been assigned to the Imperial Tomb for nine years, the two students looked at each other and sighed in their hearts.

They didn't care about anything else, so they opened such a free bookstore for King Yue to give their students the Son of Heaven, so that they could read all the books of the world for free, and they recognized King Yue in their hearts.

Jiang Wentao listened to the whispered discussion of the two students, turned around and walked away quietly.

Your Highness will not do this in vain. What if you know that it was opened by King Yue, you want the world to know. Like the East Palace, King Qin, and King Chu, even if they know that His Royal Highness's mind is not pure, what if they want to use the world's students to save fame? With such a thing that benefits the country and the people, what do you want to give the prince a bad name?

The king of Yue is extinct, can he still rebel?

Now the East Palace and the King of Qin and the King of Chu just want to get along with each other, and both sides want to get this help, but they don't dare to offend His Highness easily.

Jiang Wentao walked to the fifth floor, to see which books could be read by Changzhi over there, and then ordered someone to copy one more copy and send it to the child.

Thinking of growing up, Jiang Wentao tugged at the corner of his mouth, that child is nine years old this year, it's really good.

Catch the worm right away
