Chapter 238 The Queen Lost



The meeting hall has become a medical clinic.

"Come on, come on, have you finished looking at everything? After that, go over there to get the medicine and pay the money!" Chu Youyang gave orders while strolling around.

Chu Younan and Su Bei breathed a sigh of relief. Although it was a bit outrageous, it was not unorthodox after all. They thought he was throwing a large party. Overall, this guy was not dissolute.

But when Chu Youyang turned around and saw Chu Younan and the other two, he wanted to run away like a mouse seeing a cat.

"Third brother! Why are you here? Don't hit me, don't hit me!"

Chu Younan stepped forward and grabbed the collar of his dragon robe, angrily asking, "What are you doing?"

Chu Youyang smiled awkwardly, "I need money everywhere, so I'm trying to find a way to generate income."

Chu Younan was about to get angry, but Su Bei stopped him and said with a smile: "This is a good idea!"

"Hmm?" Chu Youyang smiled. "Third sister-in-law, do you really think it's good?"

"That's right! Being able to collect money and helping people see their illnesses is pretty good!" Su Bei nodded.

But the people around were whispering.

"It's been several days since I last saw it. Everyone in my family has seen it!"

"Every day, they also required that you bring your family members to see the doctor, even the maids and servants!"

"If we spend all day treating patients, how can we handle the government affairs?!"

Yes! What should we do with the government?

Chu Younan raised his hand and said, "Let's all go!"

Su Bei held him back again and said loudly, "No! Don't leave! Everyone is here! Let me say a few words!"

With Chu Youyang's behavior, it didn't seem like a big deal for Princess Su to say a few words.

Everyone quieted down and the ministers outside the hall came in.

Su Bei said in a clear voice: "Your Majesty is preparing to transfer water from the south to the north, so a large amount of silver is needed. We plan to donate 40% of the income from the industries under the name of Su Wangfu to the national treasury."

As soon as the words came out, the hall became even quieter.

Chu Youyang asked the imperial physician to check all the family members these days. Who doesn't have some minor problems? Even those who don't have any problems need to be nursed back to health. Nursing is even more terrible. They need to use ginseng and deer antlers.

So each of them paid a lot of money.

Now that Princess Su has said such things, if they don't bleed, the Emperor will definitely remember it.

After a long silence, Prime Minister Jiang spoke first: "Donate 40% of the Prime Minister's Mansion's assets as well."

It's not that Jiang Bai is so self-aware, but since Chu Youheng left, his move with Jiang Ruwei has been ruined. He has to re-plan.

After thinking about it, Chu Youyang is much easier to fool than Chu Younan.

Chu Younan was a strict person, so it was impossible to get someone into his house. But Chu Youyang loved to play by nature, so as long as he trained a few of his daughters to play, it would be very likely that they would be able to enter the palace.

Just as he finished speaking, Jiang Ruyu, who came with him, spoke up: "I am also willing to donate some jewelry to help the country."

As she spoke, her eyes were always on Chu Youyang.

Chu Youyang naturally praised the first person who jumped out to support his career: "Good! Good! Prime Minister Jiang is indeed very righteous, and Miss Jiang is also a heroine!"

Jiang Ruyu: ...What kind of heroine? She just wants him to take her into the palace and make her his imperial concubine, or a noble concubine, or even better, the queen!

As soon as the father and daughter started speaking and Chu Youyang praised them, some people couldn't stand it anymore.

"I am willing to donate 10% of my property..."

"I am willing to donate 20%..."

Almost every minister expressed some interest in this.

Some people, in order to show off their reputation, would go back and talk to the people in their own government offices and ask them to donate as well.

Chu Youyang showed a relieved smile on his face, "Okay! Send someone out of the palace to tell the Queen! Tell her that I have raised 100,000 taels first! She lost!"

Chu Younan was confused, "Where is the Queen?"

Yu Chuan stepped forward and whispered, "Your Majesty, please come with me. I will take you to find the Queen."

Chu Younan and Su Bei looked at each other. The couple seemed to be working hard, but why did they seem so unreliable? Yu Chuan led the way, and the two followed him, all the way to the street, in front of the Nanbei Dim Sum Shop.

I haven't been here for a few days, and the entrance of the dim sum shop has really changed.

The snack shop has been holding activities, and children line up to learn nursery rhymes. No one sings the nursery rhyme about the country's demise anymore. The whole street is filled with the song "Little white rabbit, so white, with two ears standing up"...

This was something Su Bei had expected.

But she didn't expect that right next to her, there was also a long queue, and there was a big sign hanging there that read "Queen's Free Clinic".

Oh my god! Aren't you afraid of being assassinated? Su Bei and Chu Younan got out of the car and walked towards the shop.

The situation here was similar to that in the palace, but it was a little different. Xue Jinrong sat alone in the lobby, still wearing the queen's court dress. On one side of the shop, a young palace maid was selling medicine and collecting money. She could faintly hear the sound of pounding medicine coming from the backyard.

"You are overeating. You need to have a regular diet and lose weight. Also, you should eat more vegetables and less meat. Taking slimming pills will have a significant effect!" Xue Jinrong said to the fat man sitting opposite him.

The fat man nodded in agreement and looked Xue Jinrong up and down.

It had been open for a few days, and people knew that it was a free clinic, but medicine still had to be sold, so there weren't many poor people coming. Most of them were the idle children of officials.

The mother of a country, it is extremely difficult to meet her! And Xue Jinrong didn't even need to diagnose her pulse. The fat man just held his hand and it seemed that he was not going to wash his hands for three days.

Chu Younan's expression became even gloomier. He stepped forward quickly and whispered, "Empress, this is inappropriate!"

Xue Jinrong raised his head suddenly and grinned, "Third brother, you're here? I've raised a lot of money these days. Oh, doesn't Ah Bei want that hair dye? I've made it. Come on, go over there and pay the money to buy it. Black hair dye."

Su Bei glared at her, "You're going too far!" He was just about to shout throughout the city that Princess Su's hair had turned white...

Xue Jinrong covered his mouth and laughed secretly, "Tell your uncle from your mother's side to buy some and use it. It will turn your grey hair black. Dyeing it once will last for half a year!"

"Okay, okay, let's stop here today! The emperor said you have already lost!" Su Bei curled his lips.

Xue Jinrong's face suddenly changed, and he stood up and said, "What? He's so fast? How is it possible?! My pills are much more effective than the bitter medicine soups prescribed by his imperial doctors!"

"Well, the ministers in the court donated silver." Su Bei said in a low voice.

Xue Jinrong glared at her fiercely and asked, "Did you help him?"

"We entered the palace first. Seeing that he didn't even attend the court, we had to..."

Before he could finish his words, Xue Jinrong stamped his feet angrily, "Oh! Why did you help him and not me?! This is bad!"

"What's wrong?!" Su Bei asked in surprise.

Xue Jinrong did not answer, but hurriedly asked the palace maids to pack up the stall and drive out the patients waiting in line behind him.
