Just before her family was confiscated and exiled, Shen Yunyue emptied her own storeroom and, while she was at it, also emptied the太子(crown prince's) mansion's storeroom.
This was...
Chapter 299: Prince Rui brings people to Yunheng Palace to suppress bandits
Ba Nian looked in the direction Bai Mu Ke left and said to himself:
"He looks like a poor young man. His clothes may be worn, but they're very clean. Even the cuffs are neat."
Shen Yunyue didn't care about this person's origin.
"Just someone who occasionally gets into trouble here."
Perhaps Bai Muke was grateful for the hospitality provided by Yu Yunheng Teahouse, so he went downstairs and told the shopkeeper Yu that he would first tell the story about the chapters he had read today.
Shopkeeper Yu looked at him puzzledly.
"Mr. Bai, our boss's wife said there's no rush to make money."
"Manager Yu, just listen to me. I'll go wash up and then go on stage to tell the story."
Shopkeeper Yu lowered his eyes and thought for a moment.
"Whatever. I have some clean clothes here too, you can change into them later."
Shen Yunyue drank a pot of tea.
Slowly writing and drawing on the blueprint on the second floor, she looked at the pedestrians passing by on the street.
Yunheng Teahouse uses a lot of ice, so it’s not hot inside.
"Ba Nian, go call Shopkeeper Yu over."
"yes."
Bayan opened the door of the private room.
The faint sound of a storyteller drifted in.
Shen Yunyue listened carefully for a few words and found that it was the Romance of the Three Kingdoms that she had given to the shopkeeper Yu.
Wait for the shopkeeper to come up.
She pointed to the people walking on the street outside and said:
"From now on, put a table at the door every day and put two buckets of herbal tea on it."
"This herbal tea is for the poor people and passers-by to drink."
Before, Manager Yu also drank two buckets of herbal tea every day to prevent colds.
But it disappeared after I finished drinking it.
From what Shen Yunyue said, this herbal tea needs to be made continuously.
"Madam, will it be provided from the time the shop opens until the evening?"
"Yes, non-stop." Shen Yunyue nodded.
She has collected too much other people's property in her space.
Although those people deserved it.
But she also wanted to do something for the people.
"At noon, in addition to the herbal tea, I'll also make a big pot of mung bean soup. It's served while supplies last."
"Yes." Shopkeeper Yu agreed.
"We have plenty of ice here. I'll give you a recipe. Make some cold drinks and sell them in the store, and also sell some green bean drinks at the door."
These are all simple recipes and do not conflict with the shop opened by the eldest branch of the Shen family at the dock.
Shen Yunyue handed the prescription in her hand to Shopkeeper Yu.
Shopkeeper Yu took a look and was surprised. Every day, someone from Yunheng Palace would deliver ice to him.
I also make ice cubes in the backyard to beat the heat.
The money saved on this one item alone was quite a lot. He knew that ice cubes in summer were a big expense for teahouses and restaurants.
"If you have anything to say, go find An Yi."
Shen Yunyue gave him some instructions and asked him to take care of some little beggars in Yonghe Town.
The little beggars in the town can also become their spies. These little guys are smart and inconspicuous, making them very suitable to be their people.
The Yinghei guys were very familiar with them in Yonghe Town.
Shen Yunyue is also willing to continue to support them.
Then select the outstanding ones from among them to be trained in Yunheng Palace.
Shopkeeper Yu agreed immediately.
After arranging all this, Shen Yunyue left the teahouse. Several young people came over hurriedly.
"I heard from the servant that the storytelling at Yunheng Teahouse is very good, and it's something we haven't heard before."
"Just now, my servant called me out from Tianfeng Teahouse. It was to tell me about the new story."
"What's the story?"
“I don’t know!”
…….
Everyone walked into Yunheng Teahouse murmuring.
Shen Yunyue, sitting in the carriage, lifted the curtain and took a look at the four big words "Yunheng Teahouse" written by Fu Xuanheng.
She thought to herself:
This is only the first day of storytelling, is it already so popular?
Shen Yunyue first came to the dock.
Shen Zhou and Shen Lu, sisters-in-law, were busy in the dock shop.
I found a few waiters to help in the store.
The two men came with a maid each.
Business at the dock was booming, and Shen Zhoushi even had the goods delivered to nearby shops.
She felt someone coming in and looked up to see that it was Shen Yunyue. She hurriedly greeted:
"Yunyue, come in quickly."
She turned around and ordered the maid beside her, "Xingzi, go and bring over the sweet soup. And also bring over the milk rice cake."
Shen Yunyue smiled faintly.
I took a look and saw that the store was full of customers.
Some people ordered various fruit smoothies, while others ordered red bean smoothies.
"Aunt, business is good."
Shen Zhou nodded with satisfaction, "Thanks to you. The weather is so hot now, and many people who got off the boat come to the store to have some ice drinks.
Our popsicles are selling very well. We just sent a hundred popsicles to the ship."
There are many ships docked at the pier.
The Cangjiang River is a waterway hub between the north and the south, and Yonghe Town is a supply point in the middle.
Shen Yunyue took a red bean popsicle, took a bite, and chewed it slowly. "Aunt, you can also make it in mung bean, peach, or jasmine flavors..."
When she said this, Shen Zhou slapped her thigh in surprise:
"Why didn't I think about it so carefully?"
Shen Lu was keeping an account book and put it down when she heard this. "Sister-in-law, all of us in the Shen family combined are not as smart as Yun Yue."
"That's right."
"Second aunt, is there still no news about Brother Yunteng?" Shen Yunyue saw some crow's feet at the corners of Shen Lu's eyes, and remembered that her eldest son Shen Yunteng went out with the wandering monk and said he was coming to Shihanzhou.
It's just that it's been a while.
Even Madam Mo came to Baijia Village from the capital.
Shen Yunteng hasn't arrived yet, which makes people a little worried.
Shen Zhou frowned worriedly, "Your second aunt hasn't been able to sleep or eat well these days because of this."
"You said to ask around. We have to ask somewhere. We have no idea where he went."
Shen Lu wiped her red eyes.
"Yunyue, I'm worried. You said you barely escaped beheading. If something happens to you, what will I do..." Mrs. Shen Lu wiped the tears from her face with a handkerchief.
"There's no news at all."
Shen Yunyue understood what was in her heart and watched her cry silently.
Seeing that she had calmed down a little, he comforted her:
"Perhaps no news is the best news. I'll have someone secretly inquire about it. If they come across him, I'll have him come back."
"Yes, thank you very much."
Shen Lu suppressed the sadness in her heart.
She only allowed herself to be sad for a while and not stay depressed forever.
She also has her youngest son here.
As they were talking, someone came running towards the door with a panicked look on his face.
"The army is coming to town."
"I heard that it was Prince Rui who brought people to suppress the bandits."
Shen Yunyue's eyes darkened, and she glanced at the store calmly. She calmly instructed:
"Aunt, Second Aunt, the two of you should go back to Baijia Village. As for the cold drink shop, let the owner take full responsibility."
"Let us stay with you." Shen Zhou was worried about Shen Yunyue and Fu Xuanheng.
How can two teenagers, who are only in their teens, face the army brought by Prince Rui?
Even people like the deposed crown prince and Shen Cixuan were beheaded.
Shen Yunyue shook her head gently. "We're fine. I let you go back to Baijia Village mainly to reassure Grandmother and the others. Yunhai and the others will stay in Yunheng Palace."
"Okay, let's go back." Shen Zhoushi was not the kind of person who would drag his feet.
Shen Lu looked at Shen Yunyue deeply and repeatedly reminded her:
"Yunyue. Be safe."
"knew."
Shen Yunyue asked someone to arrange a carriage to take Shen Zhou and the others away from a small road.
He hurried back to Yunheng Palace with Bayian.
Fu Xuanheng was in the front yard of Yunheng Palace.
Shen Yunfeng and his children were all gathered in the front yard.
Everyone's face was calm and indifferent to their age. "Brother-in-law, don't forget to assign us tasks."
Shen Yunfeng and Shen Yuncheng, holding short swords in their hands, stood at the front with serious expressions.
Shen Yunzheng moved his little arms.
She performed a difficult movement steadily, "Brother-in-law. And me too."
Fu Xuansheng didn't dare to disturb Fu Xuanheng, but he also stood with his head held high and chest puffed out with Shen Yunhai and Shen Yunfei.
Fu Xuanheng glanced at them indifferently.
His tone was cold, "Get out of my way."
"Oh, okay." The little guys walked obediently to a place where they would not be in the way.
They looked at each other and asked, "Are we still weak?"
Shen Yuncheng nodded, "Weak. Can't beat Ying Hei."
"Oh." Shen Yunzheng simply sat on the ground.
He looked up at Yingbei who was leaving not far away and asked, "When will I be better than them?"
Shen Yunhai shook his head. Anming said that everyone has their own expertise.
“It’s difficult.”
Several people huddled in a corner dejectedly, thinking of a solution.
Shen Yunyue walked to Fu Xuanheng and whispered:
"How many people did Prince Rui bring with him?"
"Five thousand people. I heard that Shi Hanzhou has 20,000 people waiting for his transfer order, asking me to hand over Yunheng Palace." There was a fierce coldness on the corner of Fu Xuanheng's mouth.
This is the Yunheng Palace that he took from the Qing Gang.
Who is Prince He Rui?
What is the emperor of the Great Zhou?
Fu Xuanheng's eyes were cold, and he wished he could destroy the palace. He grabbed the old emperor, now the retired emperor, by the collar and made him kneel before the graves of his father, mother, and concubine to confess his crime.
Then drag him to Yun Wei's grave and make him kneel in front of her grave even if he dies.
Shen Yunyue felt like she had heard a huge joke.
"Hahaha. Then I will let the soldiers of the Great Zhou see the strength of the Yunheng Palace." Shen Yunyue thought of using weapons.
There were only a few hundred people staying in Yunheng Palace, and some had been sent out.
A few hundred people against five thousand people, there is not much chance of winning.
She didn't want to waste the lives of the people in Yunheng Palace.
"Xuan Heng, come with me."
Fu Xuanheng's eyes turned dark, and he instructed Anming:
"The one keeping an eye on Prince Rui."
"yes."
The two came to the warehouse in the backyard.
Shen Yunyue directly released a sniper cannon from the space, as well as two submachine guns, which were already available hot weapons.
There is no need to let the little fool go to other planes to exchange.
"This is our treasure." Shen Yunyue patted the sniper cannon.
Fu Xuanheng didn't know how to use a submachine gun, "How do I use it?"
"Come with me."
Shen Yunyue took him into the space and first asked Xiao Daigua to simulate it on the screen.
Just like a game.
"Is that okay?"
"Okay." Fu Xuanheng's eyes were filled with murderous intent. "I can't wait to start a killing spree."
Shen Yunyue: ... "Xuan Heng, you can't keep killing people."
"You must know that you will strive for that high position in the future."
Fu Xuanheng said nonchalantly: "You sitting on the emperor is the same as me sitting on the emperor."
Shen Yunyue slapped him with a slap on the face, "You want to tire me to death? I wanted to be a rich and idle person, but in the end I was forced to fight with you for the empire.
After conquering the country, I want to lie down and rest. Do you still want me to read those memorials that make my brain hurt every day?"
"Fu Xuanheng, don't go too far. Do you treat me like a cow?"
Shen Yunyue gave him a murderous look.
Fu Xuanheng immediately shut up and dared not say anything.
"Absolutely not." He could only defend himself in a low voice with grievance.
It’s a pity that he and Yunyue don’t have any children yet. If they had children, they would just raise them.
