Chapter 157 The opportunity given by Zhu Xuntao

After hearing that Zhu Xuntao was also taking a bath, Jiang Yijing simply followed Xiao Yuanshan and felt that it was quite good to take a bath. After

taking a bath more often, Jiang Yijing discovered the magic of this Chinese medicine bath.

She couldn't tell what its specific effects and functions were.

But the amazing thing was that after taking a Chinese medicine bath, she slept more soundly every day, woke up more energetic, and her complexion became more rosy day by day...

So unknowingly, Zhu Xuntao made Chinese medicine bathing popular in Yongjing Marquis's Mansion.

After Xiao Jingzhan presented the Chinese medicine package to the prince, and the prince asked the emperor to try it,

it became popular in the palace.

The nobles in the palace were taking baths, and other officials knew about it, so there was no reason not to follow suit.

When Zhu Xuntao realized this, the people around her were the same as her. They

no longer smelled like cosmetics, but medicine mixed with the powder... What

Zhu Xuntao didn't know was that the prince had started a business with this Chinese medicine bag.

Not only did he start this business, but he also didn't bring Zhu Xuntao with him, and took advantage of Zhu Xuntao's "creativity" for free!

"Sister-in-law, I've figured it out."

Xiao Jingshen breathed a sigh of relief. He was finally done for the day.

Zhu Xuntao, who was so busy that she turned around, smiled when she heard this:

"Third brother, you have worked so hard today. Go back and have a rest."

"Remember, come to sister-in-law's place tomorrow."

"If you are not responsible for these things, then mother and housekeeper Yang will have to trouble you."

So, Xiao Jingshen is not helping her, but her mother-in-law, and himself, because Xiao Jingshen is also a member of the Yongjing Marquis's Mansion.

"I know, sister-in-law."

Xiao Jingshen knew that he, a coolie, could not escape for a while.

Okay, mother and housekeeper Yang have worked so hard for so many years, and he has only helped so much, so he gritted his teeth and went over.

"Is Jingshen gone?"

Xiao Jingzhan came out of the bath, and Zhu Xuntao was the only one left in the room.

"Yeah."

Zhu Xuntao was so busy that she didn't even have time to raise her head.

She had to help with the accounts of the Yongjing Marquis's Mansion, and she couldn't fall behind in her own shop.

Not to mention, Zhu Xuntao had many other tasks to do, and the accounts she had to settle were no less than those of the Yongjing Marquis's Mansion.

"Don't work too hard, it's still early, mother won't rush you."

"You go ahead, I'll go see Jingshen."

Although Xiao Jingzhan felt sorry for Zhu Xuntao's hard work, these tasks would sooner or later fall into Zhu Xuntao's hands.

Now, Zhu Xuntao has only taken over part of it, and can still push it to Jiang Yijing.

In the future, when she becomes the Marquis's wife from the Crown Prince's Consort, these tasks really can't be pushed away.

"Brother, why are you here?"

Xiao Jingshen, who was rubbing his shoulders in his room, saw Xiao Jingzhan coming and stood up quickly.

Xiao Jingzhan pushed Xiao Jingshen back to sit down:

"If you are tired, take a bath more often. The medicine bag your sister-in-law made is very useful and can relieve fatigue."

Feeling the care from his dear elder brother, Xiao Jingshen smiled:

"Don't worry, elder brother, I am also using the medicine bag prepared by my sister-in-law."

Compared with Xiao Jingzhan, Xiao Jingshen lives a relaxed life and has no physical problems. He is not very experienced in Chinese medicine baths.

"What did you learn from your sister-in-law today? Have you summarized it?"

"If you have summarized it, give it to me and I will bring it to the prince tomorrow."

Xiao Jingshen was not moved for a minute before Xiao Jingzhan poured him a basin of cold water.

The elder brother's love for his younger brother is there, but not much.

"I'll get it for you."

Xiao Jingshen was not hypocritical. Anyway, he was well prepared and was not afraid of his elder brother's surprise attack.

"Today my sister-in-law taught me the multiplication table."

"In addition to mental arithmetic, based on the multiplication table, my sister-in-law has many clever calculation tricks that can help us solve a large number of complicated numbers."

"I haven't learned the rest yet, but I have memorized the multiplication table."

Zhu Xuntao asked Xiao Jingshen to be his bodyguard, and Xiao Jingshen went there to learn from Zhu Xuntao.

"Very good."

Xiao Jingzhan took the multiplication table without hesitation,

"Your sister-in-law is very capable. Although her talent is different from yours, she is also a person of profound knowledge."

"Learn more from her, it will benefit you."

Xiao Jingshen nodded:

"Brother, you don't need to say it, I understand."

"If I were not your sister-in-law's brother-in-law, I am afraid I would not have the opportunity to learn from her."

Any knowledge learned from sister-in-law is something that cannot be learned from others.

Xiao Jingshen felt that what sister-in-law knew was enough to support a school.

Anyway, his feeling every day was that there was no end to learning, and there was no end to learning at all.

Xiao Jingzhan hesitated for a moment, but still told Xiao Jingshen the prince's plan:

"The prince knows Taotao's ability very well, but it's a pity that Taotao is a girl. He wants to use Taotao, but I'm afraid that Chao Gang and the ministers don't agree."

"So the prince still hopes that you can take the imperial examination and have the opportunity to take over the position of Zhao Shangshu in the future."

Originally, the Yongjing Marquis's Mansion had an outstanding young man like Xiao Jingzhan, which was enough to protect the glory of the Marquis's Mansion.

If you don't want to cause discord with the royal family and arouse the royal family's suspicion,

it is not appropriate for the Yongjing Marquis's Mansion to have a second outstanding young man like Xiao Jingzhan.

What's more, Zhao Shangshu is the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, who manages the purse for the Great Yong Dynasty.

Such an important position should not be held by someone from the Yongjing Marquis's Mansion.

But the prince had this plan.

The relationship between the Yongjing Marquis's Mansion and the Crown Prince is already ironclad.

Therefore, since the Crown Prince has such a plan, Xiao Jingzhan cannot stop him.

The Crown Prince is not the current emperor. As long as the Crown Prince has not ascended the throne, the only promising child in the Xiao family can be Xiao Jingzhan.

"..."

Xiao Jingshen was shocked by the news:

"Is the Crown Prince serious?"

The Minister of Revenue, him?

It's not that Xiao Jingshen thinks he doesn't have the ability to sit in this position, but before today, no one had such a plan.

"Will the Crown Prince joke about such a thing?"

Xiao Jingzhan asked Xiao Jingshen to wake up and stop talking nonsense, otherwise it would be bad if people misunderstood.

"Those things of Taotao Club, although you didn't learn them so easily, they were not bad either."

"It's not the same for others to learn the same things, even my little sister's learning ability..."

The prince was very angry about this.

With this arithmetic ability, Zhu Xuntao can be called "Grandmaster".

What bothered the prince was that Xiao Miluo learned it easily, but his staff couldn't learn it? !

Many people couldn't even compare with Xiao Miluo, let alone Xiao Jingshen, who had some talent. They were simply killed by Xiao Jingshen in seconds.

Just a simple thing created a huge gap between Xiao Jingshen and those people.

Minister Zhao was not the prince's man. He dared to sell the news about Zhu Xuntao to Chief Minister Wei after hearing the prince's words.

Naturally, how could the prince like Minister Zhao?

Xiao Jingshen was already trusted by the prince, and now, he has learned a lot of unique skills from Zhu Xuntao.
