Comprehensive Qing wear good luck
Chapter 88 4 Brother's Backyard Daily 13
Half a month later, the honeycomb coal workshop officially started operation. After it was confirmed that it could operate normally, Jiang Liang stayed to manage it. Yinzhen arranged for other people to supervise it before returning home.
After returning, Yinzhen went straight into the palace with memorials. Even interim results were still results, and he always told the Emperor about everything. This was what it meant to be a good son to the Emperor.
Being filial to his imperial father was the reason why Yinzhen was able to stand firm and hold on to the end.
His ability was the reason why Kangxi finally chose him.
After Le Shu came back, she first went to the main courtyard to pay her respects to the lady-in-waiting.
"Greetings to the Lady, good luck to the Lady."
Ulanara smiled kindly and said, "Get up. You've worked hard following me to the farm."
Le Shu stood up and said, "It is my duty to share the worries of Master and Lady Fujin."
"Mammy, please let Changgege sit down."
"Thank you, Mrs.
"It's not about right or wrong. The master told me about the honeycomb coal. Honeycomb coal can benefit the people. This is a favor and should be rewarded!"
……
When Le Shu left, she brought back a lot of rewards, including fresh silks and silks with patterns that were most suitable for her and in line with her preferences.
There are also many pieces of jewellery, all of which are quite exquisite.
In the main courtyard, after Le Shu left, the nanny thought about the news she had just received, and her face was a little worried. Ulanara saw it and said: "Mammy, just say whatever you want to say!"
"Fujin, I just got the news that Chang Gege has been interfering in many things on the farm, and even drove several craftsmen back to the Ministry of Works. I think Chang Gege has overstepped her authority by doing this."
Ulanara looked at the nanny deeply, and then said: "It's just sending a few craftsmen back. Chang Gege developed honeycomb coal. Sending them back must be because they didn't do a good job. How can it be considered as usurpation? She has such a great achievement. She came to the main courtyard to pay her respects as soon as she returned. She is a smart person. Nanny, please don't mention usurpation again."
The maid was shocked by her gaze and said guiltily, "Yes, Fu Jin."
"Let Chamei come in and serve, and Mammy, go down and have a rest."
"Yes, Fujin."
Chamei came in and saw that Ulanara looked a little tired, so she asked with concern: "Fujin, would you like me to massage your shoulders?"
"Please give me a press."
"Yes."
Camellia's cooking skills were very good. Ulanara closed her eyes comfortably and said, "Madame Liu has been with me for many years. She is old. Go check her out. If there is no problem, let her leave the house and live out her days in luxury!"
Chamei paused, then said, "Yes, Fu Jin."
Ulanara's eyes were not open, but her tone was somewhat desolate: "Chamei, over the years, many people have come and gone around me, and many of the people I brought from my mother's family are no longer around!"
Some of those people are gone, some were sent out of the palace to be raised by her, and some got married.
Camellia: "I will always be with you, Madam Fu Jin."
Ulanara's tone became more emotional: "It's good to have you accompany me."
Le Shu returned to Shaoguangyuan and asked Nanny Su to check it, register it, and then selected two pieces of cloth and asked someone to make new clothes.
When Concubine Li heard that Le Shu received a reward from the main courtyard after returning from the manor, she immediately grumbled in displeasure.
"Why does she get to accompany me out to play and get a reward from the concubine when she comes back? I think the concubine is useless. She can't even control a princess. She's always rushing to get ahead. Why wasn't she so generous to me before?"
"Concubine, you can't say that. Speak softly. If it gets out, Master and Concubine will punish you."
Concubine Li shut up.
She just had a bad mouth and fell out of favor, while Le Shu was favored again. She was very jealous, but there was nothing she could do. Le Shu was also a person with a bad mouth, so she couldn't confront her head-on and could only mutter a few words behind her back.
As for why she said that, it was mainly because she knew nothing.
Even though she was a concubine, she could not find out any news about the main courtyard in the mansion, let alone the Shaoguang Courtyard. Naturally, she did not understand what the concubine's reward was for.
A month later, honeycomb coal officially appeared in the capital. Because it was easy to use, durable and cheaper than ordinary coal, it quickly became a hot product. Upon inquiring, people heard that it was the emperor who paid for it and ordered the Fourth Master to make it. They all thanked the emperor for his grace.
This Huangen coal was soon called Kangxi coal.
Yinzhen went to the palace and told the matter.
"The people of the capital spontaneously changed the name of Huang En Coal to Kangxi Coal. Now they are all grateful for the emperor's kindness. They all say that the emperor cares about the people, so Kangxi Coal was created. I checked and found that the number of people who froze to death in the outer city has decreased by at least 50% in the past few days. Once Kangxi Coal is released, the emperor will surely be able to benefit the people of the world."
Kangxi was overjoyed when he heard this.
He knew the name of Huang'en coal, but the name Kangxi coal became popular, and it was obvious that the people really agreed with it.
"Yinzhen, you did a great job on this. Thank you for your hard work."
Yinzhen looked at Kangxi with admiration: "It is worth it to work for your Majesty."
After Yinzhen left, Kangxi felt much better. He had been paying attention to the issue of honeycomb briquettes, but he did not expect Yinzhen to report it so promptly. Looking at the memorials he submitted, he covered every detail.
Thinking of the prince's inaction, or even his nonsense, his excitement faded, and he called Liang Jiugong: "Go and call the prince."
"Whoo."
The prince learned about Kangxi's coal matter from Kangxi. When he came out of the Qianqing Palace, his face was not very good. He returned to the Yuqing Palace and hurriedly asked someone to find out the specific information.
When he went to court the next day, Kangxi brought up this matter and praised Yinzhen specially. His purpose was to remind the prince that as a prince, he should do some practical work.
But the prince felt that Kangxi was testing him and was dissatisfied with him, otherwise why would he praise Yinzhen for "caring for the people"? How should he, the prince, feel about this?
The relationship between the Crown Prince and Yinzhen had already broken down, and now it was even more broken than ever.
After the court session, the prince stopped Yinzhen. Yinzhen knew exactly why he came and his face showed confusion.
"Prince, second brother?"
Yinreng looked at his expression and became even angrier, so he said sarcastically: "Kangxi coal, fourth brother is really good at hiding it."
Yinzhen looked innocent: "Brother Crown Prince, this coal was originally made by a lady in my backyard. I thought it was better than ordinary coal, so I reported it to the emperor. The emperor used the money from his private treasury to ask me to do this.
I didn't expect such a good effect. It shows that the emperor is very kind. If I knew that this coal would have such an impact, I, as a younger brother, would never dare to monopolize it!"
The prince was puzzled and looked unconvinced: "Your princess in the backyard made this? How could a princess in the backyard think of making such a thing?"
Yinzhen immediately looked embarrassed: "There was a naughty servant in my house. The charcoal he sent was not good to use. My princess was very clever and made Kangxi coal. I happened to see it when I went there and asked a few questions. Isn't this..."
The prince understood and could comprehend the struggles in the backyard.
After hearing this, the prince decided not to hold him back. If he had known in advance, he would have taken the credit. But now Yinzhen had done everything, and this thing was made by a woman. It would be embarrassing if he stole the credit from his brother's concubine in the backyard!
When the prince left, he said, "You do have a good princess. Who pointed that princess out to you? You are very lucky."
"The Queen Mother pointed it out."
After seeing off the crown prince, Yinzhen happened to meet the eighth prince Yinsi and the ninth prince Yinlu. It was rare that the tenth prince was not there.
"Fourth brother."
"Eighth brother, ninth brother, is there something wrong?"
Eighth Prince: "It's alright, I just want to congratulate Fourth Brother for being favored by the Emperor."
Yinzhen shook his head: "It's nothing like my eighth brother who thrives in the Ministry of Revenue."
The Eighth Prince smiled, and the Ninth Prince took over the conversation: "Fourth Brother is really something. He knew to tell his brothers in advance about this good thing. If we had known about this good thing earlier, our family would have saved a lot of money on charcoal this year."
Although honeycomb coal is good, it is not as good as the charcoal offered as tribute to the royal family. They are all red charcoal, and he would not be able to use it even if he was given it.
Yinzhen: "My ninth brother, the God of Wealth is well-known, so how can you be short of money for charcoal? You are joking again."
