Getting Rich from Legend of Zhen Huan

The Fourth Prince was so excited that he couldn't wait to bring the sweater to the palace to report to Kangxi.

Yixiu hurriedly advised, "I know this item is of great significance, but it is just an experiment now, and there is no regulation. Isn't it inappropriate to report it to the emperor like this? At the very least, you should knit two well-fitting sweaters for the emperor to present to him, so as not to be disrespectful."

The fourth prince put down the sweater in his hand embarrassedly and said, "It's my fault for not considering it well."

Yixiu smiled and praised the Fourth Prince, "Your Highness is wholeheartedly devoted to the country and the people, which is a blessing to the people."

It is difficult to go from zero to one, but it is not that difficult to go from one to ten, to one hundred. The Fourth Prince followed Yixiu to experience the process from wool to wool yarn. Although it was simple, it was enough to show the future prospects.

By the time several senior maids, together with the younger maids from Xiliyuan, had finished knitting the sweaters for presentation, it was already the end of the year. After all, they were to be presented to the emperor, so every detail from dyeing to weaving had to be done with extreme care.

The Fourth Prince felt that the timing was perfect and such a gift was suitable for the New Year occasion.

Kangxi originally planned to hold another Banquet for Thousands of Old Men after the first month of the lunar year, so the court officials racked their brains to give Kangxi gifts during this New Year's Day. Is there any causal relationship between the two? Of course there is! The Banquet for Thousands of Old Men is a grand banquet that the emperor wants to have fun with the elderly all over the world. The time is so close, you can't let the emperor be unhappy about the gift, right?

However, all officials had to give gifts, and Kangxi could not look at them one by one. Only important officials with enough weight could make Kangxi listen to them. Of course, the princes and grandchildren were not among them. After all, to them, Kangxi was both the emperor and the father. If the son gave the father a gift, how could the father not look at it?

The Third Prince thought that as the eldest son, he should set an example for his younger brothers, so he took the lead in presenting gifts. It was a longevity picture, which was carefully arranged with 10,000 longevity characters spelled out into one character, and one hundred ways of writing it were used. It was written by one hundred long-lived elders who were good at calligraphy.

Wasn't it for this auspicious sign of longevity that Kangxi wanted to hold the Banquet for Thousand Old Men? Now the longevity painting sent by the Third Prince really touched Kangxi's heart. He asked Liang Jiugong to take it and look at it carefully for a long time before asking him to put it away.

The Third Prince sat back in his seat triumphantly. He didn't believe that anyone's gift was better than his!

The gifts that were sent out one after another were exactly what the Third Prince had expected. They were full of treasures but not thoughtful enough. The longevity stones and longevity peaches were all so weak!

Kangxi watched his sons present gifts with a smile, but at the end, everyone noticed that only the Fourth Prince had not yet presented his prepared gift. Seeing the Fourth Prince sitting there with a confident look, everyone was a little curious about what the Fourth Prince had prepared.

The Fourth Prince took his time to present gifts to Kangxi, holding hands with Yixiu. "I am ashamed that the gifts I prepared are just two pieces of clothing woven by Fu Jin."

Clothes? Kangxi raised his eyebrows. He didn't think it would be ordinary clothes. "Then let me see the craftsmanship of the Fourth Lady."

Liang Jiugong brought the clothes to Kangxi. As he walked along, the sharp-eyed people noticed that the clothes on the tray were not made of fabrics they had heard of.

Kangxi also realized this. He touched the clothes with his hand and felt warmth as soon as he put his hand inside. He directly asked Liang Jiugong to help him try them on. After putting them on, Kangxi couldn't help but be surprised. What warm clothes!

Under the tray, in addition to sweaters, there were also scarves, gloves, hats and other winter cold-proof items. Kangxi tried them one by one, his eyes shining, "Fourth Lady, what are these made of?" As soon as he put on the sweaters, Kangxi's unconscious fear of cold in the past few years was almost cured.

Yixiu replied respectfully, "My Emperor, it is clothes woven from wool."

Wool! Kangxi was even more delighted than before. He said in disbelief, "It's wool!"

The ministers below also began to talk to each other and whispered that if it was really wool, there would be earth-shaking changes.

The Third Prince no longer had the confidence he had just had. He glared at the Fourth Prince hatefully. What kind of shit luck did the Fourth Prince have? It was obviously his turn to be in the limelight, but he was actually solved by his Fourth Brother's wife. It really pissed me off!

Kangxi took off his sweater. After all, it was not good to wear a sweater outside the dragon robe. Kangxi still paid attention to his personal image. After sitting down again, Kangxi called the fourth prince to bring Yixiu forward.

Kangxi looked at Yixiu and praised her, "Honghui was brought up very well by the Fourth Lady. Now you have discovered the use of wool, which is beneficial to the Qing Dynasty. You are really a blessed person." He also reminded the Fourth Prince, "Your Lady is so blessed. You must cherish her!"

The Fourth Prince nodded repeatedly and said in agreement, "Fujin is virtuous and kind. I was able to marry her thanks to your wise eye. I thank you very much, your Majesty."

Kangxi is old, and what he likes most is the harmony of his children and a happy family. Now the Fourth Prince and his wife have a good relationship, and the child they raise is smart and has made such a contribution. How can Kangxi not be happy? He said to Jiang Chen in the front row, "Wangxuan, they say that nephews resemble their uncles. This niece looks like you, she is smart!"

Jiang Chen was proud of this. He said without any modesty, "My niece is indeed very smart and beautiful!"

This made Kangxi laugh, "Good Jiang Wangxuan, I didn't expect you to be so boastful."

In this lively atmosphere, we entered the 61st year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi.

The Fourth Prince took his family on a carriage and returned to Prince Yong's mansion. On the way back, the Fourth Prince was a little tipsy. He hugged Yixiu excitedly, "Xiaoyi, today is really thanks to you."

Every move of Kangxi would be interpreted thousands of times. If the Third Prince really won the first place today, countless people would want to join the Third Prince tomorrow to gain the credit of following him.

Yixiu was a little uneasy. "Just now, my ninth brother kept looking at me, but is there anything wrong with me?"

As soon as the Fourth Prince thought about it, he knew what the Ninth Prince was planning. "The wool business is huge. He might be thinking of getting the technology from you so that he can be one step ahead and open up a trade route to the grassland!"

Yixiu smiled and leaned against the Fourth Prince, saying regretfully, "If Ninth Brother doesn't follow Eighth Brother, he would be a good choice. Fourth Sister has prestige in the grassland, and Ninth Brother has a close relationship with Fourth Sister, so it would be convenient if he really wants to do something.

Actually, Eighth Brother is also suitable! He has always been able to bewitch people and is sure to be able to fool the princes and nobles on the grasslands."

The Fourth Prince raised his head slightly and said with emotion, "Yes! But once people have taken the wrong path, it is not easy to turn back. Now, the Emperor doesn't like them. Even if they are suitable, what's the use?" This is just him not knowing the consequences of his own actions and insisting on going down a path to the end.
