Dominate the ancient academy
Chapter 84 Given to the Emperor
Emperor Jingming rushed to the Dingbei Marquis Mansion, only to find out that the person in trouble was not Yun Qinghan, but Yun Qinghan's junior brother. Seeing the little guy's pale face and the discomfort he was holding his stomach, he felt a little amused.
But no matter what, it's better to be a misunderstanding than for my nephew to really get into trouble. As long as nothing happens, that's fine.
As for this little guy who caused the misunderstanding, not to mention that he was someone Yun Qinghan valued, even with the horse hooves and fine salt before, Emperor Jingming had a very good impression of Shu Xiaoxiao.
Emperor Jingming would not say anything about Qinghan's worried look.
He also gently advised this little junior fellow: Don't be too greedy for coolness in the future, and eat everything in moderation. He was still expecting the little guy to serve the court in the future.
Shu Xiaoxiao really didn't expect that the first time she met the legendary emperor, the scene would be like this. Fortunately, the emperor was wise and not an unreasonable tyrant, otherwise wouldn't she be deceiving the emperor?
And if anyone finds out that the emperor left the palace because she ate too much and got an upset stomach, that would be a huge social bummer. How can she face people in the future!!!
Since Ye Xiao was no longer seriously injured and saltpeter and other things were readily available, Yun Qinghan directly talked to Emperor Jingming about the ice-making matter.
The more Emperor Jingming listened, the brighter his eyes became. He had tasted the sweetness of the fine salt before, and now this ice-making business pleased him even more!
It is hot right now, and the price of ice is not only high, but also in short supply. The problem is that making ice does not cost money! Since ancient times, people have always liked to do business with no capital, because they don't have to worry about losing money.
What's more, nowadays, even if you sell ice cream with your eyes closed, you won't lose money.
Emperor Jingming made some calculations and realized that what he had the most was manpower, and saltpeter could be reused. As for shops, there was no need to worry about them. In this way, if these shops were bigger and each state and county opened one or two shops, there would be no problem with sales. Maybe there would be no need to worry about insufficient silver in the national treasury for three years.
"Okay, okay, I will give you a great credit this time." Emperor Jingming said happily.
Seeing Ye Xiao, whose face was still a little pale, he even advised: "Ye Xiao, take good care of your body these two days, and don't use too much ice. Qinghan, you have a good relationship, so you should also keep an eye on this little guy.
Doctor Zhang, you will be responsible for taking good care of Ye Xiao's health in the next two days. She is still young and cannot be left with any root of illness."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Several people bowed.
Emperor Jingming left with great joy, and after that, supplements flowed like water to the Dingbei Marquis Mansion and the General's Mansion as if they were free, and it was specifically stated that these were for Ye Xiao's health.
Ye Xiao: Although this emperor is very generous, he just likes to stay cool. As for these ginseng, ganoderma lucidum and so on, are they good for the body?
However, this also shows that the emperor values her as a meritorious minister and did not forget about the meritorious person just because he got the prescription.
However, Shu Xiaoxiao really has no shortage of tonics. Not to mention that ginseng is the biggest tonic. She can understand what the plants say, so collecting herbs is a piece of cake for her.
But seeing the way Doctor Zhang's eyes lit up when he looked at the medicinal herbs, Shu Xiaoxiao specially asked him to pick two of them. No matter what, the doctor had made this trip, so she should just consider it as the consultation fee.
Doctor Zhang smiled and picked out two rare herbs. He patted his chest and said, "Young Master Ye, if you get sick again, just come to me. I will never refuse."
Shu Xiaoxiao:......
I don't want to get sick at all, can't you say a few nice words? Believe it or not, I will take the herbs from you.
If you say that, I hope I will never look for you.
Anyway, Doctor Zhang's medical skills are impeccable. Not long after I drank the medicine, my stomachache went away.
Shu Xiaoxiao wanted to go back home, but Yun Qinghan was still thinking that she had not recovered well yet, so she stayed in Dingbei Marquis Mansion for one night and went back after she was fully recovered.
Shu Xiaoxiao refused immediately. It was fine for her to go out and play, but staying overnight, wasn't it because she was afraid that her identity would be exposed soon enough? She absolutely couldn't stay overnight, it was too dangerous, what if someone found out?
When Yun Qinghan was about to send her back personally, eldest brother Shu Tingyu came to pick her up. It was Senior Brother Yun who specifically asked eldest brother to watch over her and not to use ice for the next two days.
Senior Brother Yun didn't need to tell me. Looking at Big Brother's expression, if she didn't tell me to use ice, he might not even be able to have cold drinks.
After returning home, Shu Tingyu sat in the room and said, "Tell me, what happened?"
He had just returned today when he heard that several young masters who came to visit the mansion all had stomachaches and had called a doctor. His sister even called the imperial physician at the Dingbei Marquis' Mansion. He hurried to the Dingbei Marquis' Mansion to pick them up, not knowing what had happened exactly.
Shu Xiaoxiao: "Brother, let me tell you, I am really amazing... In the end, I gave the method of making ice to the emperor, but the emperor said that we can use ice in the general's mansion, but we must not let the news leak out."
Shu Xiaoxiao told the whole story from beginning to end. Her mouth was dry, so she picked up the tea on the table and drank it all in one gulp.
Warm, with some heat.
Shu Xiaoxiao paused the warm water in her mouth for a moment, looked at her brother's expression, and swallowed it immediately. She then poured two more cups and drank them all in one gulp.
Alas, for someone who has drunk ice drinks before, the difference between drinking warm water here is immediately apparent, but now she doesn't dare to mention cold drinks at all.
Shu Tingyu didn't expect that her sister had accomplished so many things in just such a short time since she came back. She was worthy of being her sister, so smart and clever, so amazing. There were few civil and military officials in the court who could compare with her sister.
What's more important is that she is very smart. What my sister is thinking about are all major matters that benefit the country and the people. Their general's mansion has no intention of rebellion, so the best way to deal with it is to hand these methods over to the emperor. In this way, my sister can not only make a contribution, but also leave a good impression on the general's mansion in front of the emperor.
"You did a great job, but since the method of making ice has been handed over to the emperor, we in the General's Mansion should not make ice privately. In the future, you can make a small amount of ice yourself, but not too much. The General's Mansion does not need you to make ice, understand?"
Otherwise, when the emperor was selling ice, they in the general's mansion had no shortage of ice. The first bird to stick its head out would be shot. If someone came to ask about the method of making ice, they would either give it to them or not. So they just didn't use it and said they didn't know.
But the ice was donated by Xiaoxiao, so it was okay for her to use some. With the protection of the Emperor and Prince Yun, no one dared to force Xiaoxiao, so it didn't matter if she made less ice.
"Also, you have to explain to your classmates in our mansion that the recipe for making ice has been given to the emperor. Ask them to pay attention to it."
"Okay, I know bro!"
The emperor is still waiting to earn money from these ministers. They know how to make ice, but they just don't open shops. But as long as they don't buy the ice made by the emperor, the emperor will lose money.
When Su Shiche and others heard that Shu Xiaoxiao had already handed over the ice-making method to the emperor, they immediately promised that they would never leak the ice-making recipe. After all, if they went against the emperor, they would have several heads chopped off.
The medicine prescribed by the doctor was quite effective. Before 3 p.m., although the few people were still a little weak, they were able to run and jump.
After dinner, everyone went home.
