Chapter 279 This corner is a bit harsh
After being advised a few words, Prime Minister Wei agreed deeply with it.
The Queen Mother had always been extremely suspicious, and Prime Minister Wei had a grudge against her. The Queen Mother used him while also being on guard against him.
The master is right. If you rely on the Queen Mother, even if she gains power in the future, she will definitely abandon you.
"Master, there is something I don't understand."
In front of Lu Yunxi, Prime Minister Wei acted very humble and asked the question in his heart, "On the day of the palace coup, Jiang Fulu fled with his men. The Jiang Mansion and the other mansions were empty. Could it be that the news was leaked in advance?"
No one knew where Jiang Fulu was, and Prime Minister Wei felt itchy and frustrated.
When Jiang Fulu became a prisoner and his entire family was executed, Wei Shoufu would go and trample on him severely. He even prepared steamed buns stained with human blood.
"Master, it can be seen that Jiang Fulu has a master behind him."
In recent years, the Xuan family has been acting arrogantly and the Queen Mother has been overly indulgent. Perhaps there were signs of rebellion already.
"I'm not surprised that old man Jiang Fulu figured it out. On the Lantern Festival, the palace was under martial law. How did Jiang Fulu lead the adults to escape under the noses of the Imperial Guards? Who was the person who helped him escape?"
Not only did he escape, he did so quietly.
Prime Minister Wei speculated that Jiang Fulu had been preparing for a long time and had not taken any action.
This move only proves one thing: there is someone behind Jiang Fulu.
Lu Yunxi raised his eyebrows and said lazily in a low voice, "So what? You can hide for a while, but you can't hide forever."
Xiao She also escaped, and Lu Yunxi was too lazy to look for him.
As long as Xiao She does not give up the throne, he will surely make a comeback when he gets the chance. This is like a hungry dog that cannot find food outside and will go home sooner or later.
"Minister Wei, if you hold a grudge against Jiang Fulu, then you should strike him at his weakest point. What's the point of arguing? If you hold Jiang Fulu's lifeblood in your hands, how can you worry that he won't show up on his own initiative?"
Lu Yunxi stood up, looking extremely calm.
The best strategy for now is to use stillness to overcome movement.
The Queen Mother wants to eliminate dissidents, and there is bound to be bloodshed in the capital.
Lu Yunxi was too lazy to do anything that would offend people and cause him hardship and suffering. He considered the debt owed to him by the Queen Dowager Xuan as atonement.
As a prince of the Great Qi Dynasty, he was abandoned as a dead fetus, and anyone who tried to take his things was accused of being a traitor. All of this was blamed on the Queen Dowager Xuan, his vicious mother!
Lu Yunxi had a sarcastic look on his face. He wondered if the so-called queen mother had felt guilty towards him over the years. Perhaps she didn't even know of his existence?
Wei Shoufu pondered for a moment and still had no idea, so he asked, "Master, what do you mean by seven inches..."
I don’t know when it started, but Jiang Fulu became the inner demon of Wei Shoufu.
That old thief is obviously a corrupt official who has accomplished nothing. He relies on flattery to form a small group, and then goes against him, the Prime Minister, to become the emperor's confidant, and climbs up by stepping on his head. How?
"Jiang Yuzhu."
Lu Yunxi said three simple words, and Prime Minister Wei suddenly understood.
Although he understood, Wei Shoufu couldn't understand: "Does Jiang Fulu really care about a little girl?"
Maybe Jiang Fulu had already planned to cling to Xie Zhao, and doting on his daughter was just a way for him to show off in front of others.
Lu Yunxi did not give a direct reply, but said: "Why don't you try it and know?"
Then, he disappeared in the Wei Mansion in a flash.
There are too many subordinates who are holding him back. Lu Yunxi is afraid that if he sits down any longer, he will be angered to death by those stupid fools.
Wei Shoufu sat on the chair, muttering: "Let's try...let's try it."
It seems that we still have to send people to the north to capture Jiang Yuzhu and Xie Zhao first.
…
On the seventeenth night of the first lunar month, a heavy snowstorm suddenly hit the north.
In just a few hours, the snow was suddenly half a meter deep and was showing a trend of continuing to increase.
The barbarians slowed down their offensive, and the soldiers who had been struggling to defend the city were finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.
The border town was in chaos.
"Madam, the people who were originally persuaded to evacuate changed their minds and turned back before they even left the city."
Inside the room, Jiang Yuzhu was roasting sweet potatoes, corn and potatoes on a small stove. When she heard what Hongli said, she asked in surprise, "Why?"
In order to persuade the people, Princess Yutan sent people to make great efforts.
People like to follow the trend, and when some people return, it will affect the emotions of the majority and bring great difficulties to the migration.
Hongli pointed to the roof and said helplessly, "To come back and sweep the snow."
This is the case in the north. Every time there is a heavy snowfall, the roof must be cleaned in time, otherwise the heavy snow will collapse the house.
In the border town, several lazy people are killed or injured every year. The destructive power of snow disasters is no joke.
"The people in the city are not rich, they don't have land, and they rely on odd jobs and small businesses to make money. Houses are their roots."
Once the house is crushed, when you return from the neighboring city, your home will be gone.
One person decided to stay, and the people who originally agreed to move changed their minds.
There was a rustling sound on the roof.
Huang Dali and Huang Xiaomei were quick and efficient and quickly finished sweeping the area.
When Jiang Yuzhu put on her cloak and went out and climbed onto the roof, she saw people working on the roofs of the surrounding houses.
Timely snow removal in winter is also a major feature of the border town.
The blizzard did not stop all night, and the snow on the streets became deeper and deeper.
The house is sturdy, but even so, it needs to be cleaned every hour or so.
The swept snow is transported to the base of the wall using a dustpan.
When I opened the door of the mansion, the streets were covered with white snow. The snow was more than one person high. The heavy snow blocked the door and the road was paralyzed.
Fortunately, people in the north have the habit of storing food, so even if they encounter a snowstorm, every household will have enough food to eat.
Families who did not have enough firewood chopped up tables, chairs and benches at home and used them to burn for heating.
Unable to go out, Jiang Yuzhu stayed in the room reading medical books.
The medical theories of this era are similar to those of traditional Chinese medicine. Jiang Yuzhu asked Yan Lin for help when she didn't understand something. After they discussed it, they improved the trauma suture device.
"Thank you, Madam. I have always been thinking about one thing."
Yan Lin had a similar idea a long time ago. When he proposed it to his tribesmen, he was met with strong opposition.
At that time, he was not strong enough, so Yan Lin forced himself to suppress it and not mention it again. Now that he is about to take over the Yan family, he is ready to make a move again.
Jiang Yuzhu made a gesture of invitation, took a sip of chrysanthemum tea, and asked, "Doctor Yan, you are half my master, so just speak frankly."
"Yan doesn't deserve it."
Yan Lin and Jiang Yuzhu have different ideas, but that does not affect their discussion of medical skills. Every time Yan Lin feels that he has made progress.
He stared at the tea for a long while before saying, "Mrs. Xie, to be honest, I want to do business with you."
"Cooperate with me?"
Jiang Yuzhu stared at the blooming chrysanthemums in the glass teacup and said nonchalantly, "Is there any business that the Yan family cannot do?"
"It's not that we can't do it, but the Yan family is not worthy of it."
Yan Lin is a vengeful person. He was humiliated in the past, and he doesn't want his clansmen to be involved in the profitable business.
When he achieves something, those shameless people will take all the credit for themselves. Yan Lin worked so hard, but he couldn't get any fame or fortune, so what was he trying to achieve?
"Then tell me in detail. I'm interested."
The war between the two countries hindered Jiang Yuzhu's business in the north.
The money in your hands is dead stuff. Only by investing it can you make money continuously.
Yan Lin stood up, his face suddenly became serious, and he coughed twice and said, "Madam Xie, let me be frank. I have been optimistic about the pharmaceutical business for many years."
Although patented medicines are not extremely profitable, they are a long-term investment.
If nothing unexpected happens, Yan Lin's descendants can make a living from this business. Even if there are unfilial descendants, they will not starve to death.
Jiang Yuzhu twitched her face and said incredulously, "Doctor Yan, I didn't expect you to think so far ahead."
"Let's not talk about the formula and proportion of the finished medicine. To make the medicine business, there must be a supply of medicinal materials."
Jiang Yuzhu pointed out the problem directly, "Whether it is the medicinal materials in the south or the north, they have long been controlled by major medicinal materials merchants. It is not easy for us to get a piece of the pie."
Medicinal materials are the source. If they cannot be controlled, it is like a living person being strangled by the throat. He may die at any time.
To open a medicine shop, you must first have a channel to purchase low-priced medicinal materials.
"have."
Since there was no one in the room, Yan Lin simply said, "Madam Xie, how could you forget that the military supplies and medicinal materials for the North City Camp all depended on Jishidiang."
Jiang Yuzhu thought she had misheard, and after a while she reacted, "Are you planning to make medicine and compete with Jishidiang for business?"
Using Jishidiang's medicinal material channels to make medicines to make money and suppress Jishidiang, it has to be said that Yan Lin's poaching is quite ruthless.
