Princess Zhaoyang spoke, and the emperor responded with a smile.
When Princess Zhaoyang happily chose one side and went back, she saw that there were only three sides left. The emperor scanned around and found that the third prince was the legitimate prince. Even to maintain the stability of the palace, he had to have his side, so he gave it with a big wave of his hand. Meet the third prince.
Of the remaining two sides, Concubine De's natal father is the Prime Minister of the Left and the head of civil servants, so she has to give face to Concubine De. Although Concubine Xian only has one daughter, her father is General Pingnan, so it's quite nice to guard the border for him. , the last time was given to Concubine Xian.
The two concubines thanked the reward and proudly asked the palace servants to move the mirror back.
Those who didn't get a share were jealous. The princes didn't have to have a mirror. Although this glass mirror was indeed very good, they were men. Naturally, they would not look in the mirror all day long, but would be jealous of the favor. The pet, concubines and princesses are crazy with envy!
Who knows how tempting a mirror can be to a woman!
Women in the harem have to take 800 photos every day, okay?
The second princess from Concubine Xian, Princess Chenxi, was okay. She got a side from her mother-in-law, and she could go to her mother-in-law's place to take pictures of her. The third princess from Concubine Hui, Princess Jinghe, couldn't even keep a smile on her face. Jin Guiren said The fourth princess couldn't help crying!
Although Jin Gui and Hui Concubine also wanted to meet each other, they were either from prominent family backgrounds or had been favored by the Holy Spirit, and there were also princes accompanying them. They knew that it would not be their turn. It was not worth getting angry because of an object. It would be difficult to live without a mirror in this palace, and without the emperor's care!
Seeing the fourth princess crying, Mr. Jin quickly coaxed her out of fear that the emperor would be unhappy.
Although the Holy Lord is aloof, he is also a father. Even if he does not love the fourth princess as much as the eldest princess, he still feels distressed when he sees the fourth princess crying and sobbing, and he can't help but say
"There aren't many mirrors this time, so if you guys don't have them, just pick two cups to play with, then write to Han Zhongyu and ask Han Zhongyu to send another batch, and then you'll have them all!"
Stop crying! The majestic princess cried so hard that she couldn't be ashamed of herself! "
After the emperor spoke, the fourth princess did not dare to cry anymore, and she and several princes went to choose their favorite tea sets!
Except for the emperor, the empress, and the queen mother, there were two complete sets of tea sets each. Most of them were divided among the princes, and only five sets were left, intending to be given to meritorious ministers and relatives of the emperor!
This is still the case when there are only a few princes. If there are more than a dozen princes, it will not be enough!
The princesses each chose a pair of artistic water glasses. They wanted to choose some more goblets and light and luxurious embossed art cups, but the emperor refused.
"Okay, these items have to be left to your Uncle Eighteen. If you don't leave him a copy of such a new thing, he will definitely make trouble!"
After hearing this, all the princes and princesses reluctantly put down their chosen cups.
All that could be divided was distributed. Emperor Qingyuan looked at the sad expressions of the concubines who had not received anything. He had a headache. If he had known better, he would not have let them come with him!
The same goes for Han Zhongyu. Don’t you know what’s going on in the palace? Just send this little thing in, don't you sincerely embarrass him?
Even though he cursed Han Zhongyu ten thousand times in his heart, he had nothing to conjure up and give to them, so he had to pretend not to see it, waved and said
"Okay, let's all disperse!
Eunuch Liu, look how many pieces of glass are there?
Keep half as a reward, and divide the rest according to the palace rules. Keep the ones in the Qinzheng Hall, and replace them with this glass in all the places I can before New Year's Eve! "
"嗻!"
Emperor Qingyuan left after giving his instructions. Eunuch Liu asked the young eunuch to take a look at the counting book. The glass was 200 pieces, and there were 26 windows in the Qinzheng Hall. After removing these 26 pieces, there were only 170 windows left. Four dollars.
Leave half of it, and the only money that can be used in the palace is eighty-seven yuan. According to the rules, the emperor has ten yuan, the queen and the queen mother have eight yuan, Chu Guifei has six yuan, the virtue concubine has four yuan, and the two concubines have two yuan each. , noble people with heirs will share a piece.
Four pieces for the third prince, four pieces for the eldest princess, two pieces for the other princes and princesses, and the remaining five pieces are placed in the royal study.
After Eunuch Liu calculated the distribution in the palace, he asked people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to quickly install it. He himself drew up the number of rewards for several important ministers and relatives of the emperor and gave them to Emperor Qingyuan for verification.
At this time, Emperor Qingyuan remembered the memorial that Han Zhongyu had come up with a few days ago, saying that he would allocate a piece of land in the name of the government government to invest in Jingde Xiangjun's villa industry, and then use the dividends to fill the tax, thereby reducing the taxes of local farmers.
At that time, he only felt that a small Yuquan Villa with a big butt could produce no output. Even if there was a mine, it would not be able to fully drive the local economy, so how could it offset part of the tax revenue!
At that time, I just thought that Han Zhongyu was whimsical, so I ignored it. Anyway, the entire valley only had thirty or forty acres of land. Counting the ten acres that Han Zhongyu allocated to buy shares, it was only fifty or sixty acres. With such a big ass, it was worth writing him a special note. Zhezi said, there is really nothing to do!
At that time, Emperor Qingyuan approved a day-long memorial. Either there was a shortage of money or a shortage of food. Either the country was about to move, or there was a need for military supplies. There were also greeting notes from ministers from various places who sent local specialties. The whole article was nonsense or just one sentence.
"This is lychee from Lingnan/this is mango from Hainan/the weather here is very good this year!" He had to reply to such unnutritious nonsense.
"I know!"
Good time has been wasted by them!
Emperor Qingyuan was so annoyed that he wanted to scold his mother, but Han Zhongyu bothered him with this nonsense again. He was so angry that he threw the memorial into a corner. He, Han Zhongyu, could toss with it as much as he liked!
But he never expected that what Yuquan Villa produced would be such a magical thing as glass!
As an emperor, he could see the future of this glass at a glance! Not to mention the royal relatives, dignitaries, gentry and wealthy people in this country, as well as the dignitaries from neighboring countries, as long as they see this thing, can they resist buying it?
It happens to be the 60th birthday of the Queen Mother on the 19th of February next year. Originally, he planned to have his courtiers enter the palace to accompany the Queen Mother and lively. But now he has changed his mind. He will post a message to various countries to open the eyes of these local bastards and make a fortune from them. !
This is a living money bag!
Not to mention Han Zhongyu wants to buy shares, he also has to buy shares!
Emperor Qingyuan thought that when the envoys from other countries saw the glass, they must have looked like shocked country turtles, and they were more energetic than taking the elixir. He wrote a reply to Han Zhongyu with a brush.
The general idea is
"I saw the glass you sent me. I like it very much. Everyone in the harem also likes it very much. Please hurry up and send me some more. I don't even have enough.
You mentioned that the local government government will invest in the land, and the dividends will be used to offset part of the agricultural tax. I think this is feasible, so go ahead and do it, but you have to take me with you!
I will invest 30,000 taels of silver into the stock, and give Xie Yushu a token from the Imperial Merchant. The net profit will be given to me forty-six cents, and you six, I will take one cent, and just three cents will be put into the treasury!
There is no way, I have too many wives and sons, my private treasury is almost empty, and all the people in the imperial court are asking me for money, it is too difficult for me! "
