"Mother, I understand."

Speaking of business, Yongqi said solemnly, "It is indeed my son's responsibility to handle these matters.

There are also matters concerning silver."

Yongqi stopped talking here.

After a brief hesitation, he continued, "Mother, I am planning to train a death squad.

Sneak into Liuli Country to dig for silver mines.

Instead of leaving it to those Japanese pirates, it would be better to give my son some help."

"I didn't expect you to have such an idea."

Li Siqi did not refuse, "You can try, after all, the Japanese pirates at this time are not that powerful.

Of course, mining silver alone is not enough.

Mining silver is not easy and takes a long time.

You can also train a team of pirates.

They specialize in robbing each other of their own accord and harming those foreign devils.

The foreigners' firepower is not strong during this period, so you just need to recruit a group of martial arts masters who are good at swimming.

You can definitely roam the seas.

Don't miss out on opportunities to make money.

Of course, guns are also essential, and your people will need to go out and grab them from the foreign devils."

"Mother Empress, that sounds very exciting."

Yongji's face was filled with helplessness, "My son is eager to take action immediately.

However, if we train them now, it will take at least five years to produce such talents.

I wonder if the Empress Dowager has such talents.

Can you lend it to your son?"

"I told you not to fleece others."

Li Siqi laughed angrily, "You are such a bad boy, you are just fleecing your royal mother."

"Empress Mother, there's nothing I can do right now."

Yongqi gave a flattering smile, "The few men my son has are good enough for minor fights.

If you really want to become the pillar of the family, you are still a long way off.

Empress Dowager, please help your son.

If foreigners were found carrying opium at sea, my son would have them killed immediately.

Besides, your son can rest assured in the care of your people, Empress Dowager.

Nor are they afraid of their betrayal.

My son is currently lacking such a person."

"Okay, let's wait for a while."

Li Siqi rolled her eyes and said, "I'll hand it over to you once we have the manpower."

"Thank you, my son, Empress Dowager."

"It's good that you don't cause me any more trouble."

"There's nothing I can do about it. The talents cultivated by the Empress are just amazing."

"No need to be so slick. If you have time, go to the Cining Palace more often."

Li Siqi said, "You, a harmless grandson, should spend more time with her. Everyone will be happy."

"Yes, son, I know what to do."

……

From now on.

When the twelfth prince comes to the palace to pay his respects, he will definitely stay in the Cining Palace for half a day.

He chatted with the Queen Mother.

An old man and a young man can talk for half a day about any topic.

The Queen Mother enjoyed chatting with him more and more.

Especially since he always looks sick every time he appears.

The Queen Mother was heartbroken.

He tried his best to send all the good things he had saved to Prince Chen's mansion.

Many princes and princesses were envious when they saw this.

Some people followed suit, but unfortunately the Queen Mother treated all of them the same way.

Since the Empress Dowager did not favor them, they no longer went to the Cining Palace to join in the fun.

The Cining Palace soon returned to its former tranquility.

Time always slips away when we are not paying attention.

Five years later.

The Wei official woman gave birth to two daughters.

She was promoted to Wei Guiren.

But what's the matter? He's just a noble person.

It did not have much impact on the concubines in the harem.

Compared to the comfort of the harem.

Those people far away in Lingnan did not live a comfortable life.

A group of pampered young masters and rich ladies.

Except for Liu Qing and Liu Hong, no one else is hardworking and patient.

They have done their best to survive in such a place for five years.

As living standards continue to decline, people live lives similar to those of ordinary people.

They don’t have enough to eat or wear, and they suffer every day just to fill their stomachs.

Especially the children around me were crying with hunger.

Every day is a torment.

Princess Qing and the others were having a very devastating time.

Finally, they couldn't hold on any longer.

After discussing together, everyone decided to take the baby back to Beijing.

If we only rely on these people, let alone raising children, it will be a problem for us to survive.

Yongqi was the first to receive the news that these people were preparing to return to Beijing.

Thinking of what my royal mother had told me.

Send a message to the people in Guangzhou and help them return to the capital.

Kunning Palace.

"Queen."

Qianlong reappeared and looked at the people around him, "Yongqi is not young anymore.

It's time to get married.

In this year's draft, he should be chosen as a wife.

Does the Queen have a favorite candidate?"

"marriage?"

Li Siqi was stunned, then sighed softly, "In the blink of an eye, Yongqi is already eighteen years old.

Seeing his current appearance, I have forgotten his age."

"It's my fault."

Qianlong looked apologetic and said, "Yongji should have been arranged to marry a long time ago.

I see that he has always been in poor health, so I always want to let him recuperate for another two years.

Now Yongqi is eighteen years old.

You can't always avoid getting married.

I have consulted the imperial physician, and he said there is no problem with Yongji's offspring.

I can only rest assured when he has a child of his own blood."

"I understand what Your Majesty means."

Li Siqi nodded, "It is indeed time for Yongji to get married.

However, I have not gotten to know the legitimate daughters of various families over the years.

Yongqi himself lived outside the palace.

I don’t know if he knows or likes anyone.

Your Majesty might as well ask for his opinion.

After all, she is the one who will spend her whole life with Yongji.

I think it is more important that Yongji likes it."

"Row."

Qianlong agreed immediately and said, "I will go back and ask Yongji what kind of wife he likes."

"Thank you for your hard work, Your Majesty."

Li Siqi smiled and said, "Once the date is confirmed, I will take care of the wedding arrangements for him."

"That's what we do as parents."

Qianlong smiled and said, "Yongqi is smart and sensible, it's a pity that the child has lost his vitality.

I've raised it for so many times, but it still hasn't recovered.

Otherwise, Yongji would also be a good helper to me."

"There are countless ministers who can serve the emperor."

Li Siqi's smile faded a little, and he responded softly: "Our Yongji should just be a rich and idle person.

Besides, Your Majesty is in good health and full of vigor.

No matter what happens, you can handle it with ease.

Your Majesty, please don't worry about Yongji.

It's good that he doesn't cause you any trouble."

"The Queen underestimated Yongji."

Qianlong's smile grew even wider, "This child is just like my ninth uncle.

Born to do business.

I think he has been doing pretty well in recent years.

In the future he will be able to raise a large family.”

"Look at what the emperor said."

Li Siqi deliberately showed displeasure, "Can you still treat Yongji badly when the emperor is here?

Your Majesty, don't try to shirk responsibility.

From now on, Your Majesty will be responsible for supporting me and Yongji's entire family.

In short.

When Yongqi and I opened the pot, we asked the emperor for money to eat."

"How can a queen of a country say such shameless words?"

Qianlong was amused and confused when he heard this, "How could I not care about you and Yongqi?

What I mean is that Yongji is a child who has the ability to support his own family.

He is a capable child.

After he gets married.

I will let him stay in the Ministry of Revenue.

He didn't have to do anything, just keep an eye on the people in the Ministry of Revenue.

By the way, give some advice and share your thoughts."
