Chapter 513: Going to Beijing to See the Emperor
"Princess Chu, you misunderstood. The reason we prioritized his order is because he promised to unconditionally supply us with duck and goose feathers, as well as wool. Furthermore, his order was originally ranked very high, so I agreed to it without authorization."
Quan Zhaonian explained with a smile.
Hearing this, Yu Mengqing nodded immediately and gave Quan Zhaonian a thumbs up.
I have to say that handing over the affairs of the Northwest to Quan Zhaonian is indeed a wise move.
Just from the account book, Yu Mengqing knew that it was a right decision to open this factory in the northwest.
With this income, at least life in the northwest is guaranteed.
Yu Mengqing is already very familiar with the northwest area.
With this silver on the books, the lives of the villagers in the northwest should have changed a lot.
"When will you meet the emperor?" Chu Shiheng suddenly asked.
"Your Highness, in ten days." Quan Zhaonian replied respectfully.
"Just let me know if you need any help." Chu Shiheng said again calmly.
After saying this, he immediately received an ambiguous look from Yu Mengqing.
Just by looking at her expression, Chu Shiheng knew that she was very happy.
He gently pinched her fingers under the table, then said to Zeng Zhao beside him:
"Let him take all the books on governance in the study back home and read them!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
However, Quan Zhaonian, who heard this, suddenly became excited.
He didn't expect to gain such a reward by coming here today.
Naturally, he would not refuse such a thing.
There's no way to refuse.
You know, these books are the books he needs most now.
Especially since these books come from Prince Zhan’s Mansion, they are truly rare and hard to come by.
Thinking of this, Quan Zhaonian quickly knelt down in front of Chu Shiheng and said, "This humble official thanks Prince Chu!"
"Okay, we don't have so many rules here, get up quickly!" Yu Mengqing said with a smile.
Then he pointed to an empty seat nearby and said, "Sit down and try this brine. Isn't it famous in the northwest? See if it tastes good."
"Well, I won't be polite then!"
After saying that, he picked up a piece and put it in his mouth.
To be honest, he was really surprised when he first saw it.
He didn't expect that the legendary brine would be such a dark food.
In his eyes, shouldn’t all delicious food be golden and bright?
However, looking at the brine, he really couldn't associate it with delicious food.
Only when he put the brine into his mouth did he realize that he was wrong, extremely wrong.
How can this be described as delicious food?
This is simply too delicious.
"Prince Chu, Princess Chu, this... this..."
"Is it delicious? Don't be embarrassed. You had the same expression when we first ate it. Just get used to it!"
Guo Peiying said proudly.
After that, he pushed the pig offal in front of him and said, "Try this, it tastes better!"
Having tasted the brine, Quan Zhaonian was not polite and picked up a piece with the bamboo stick and put it into his mouth.
"Isn't this delicious?" Quan Zhaonian said repeatedly.
As soon as he finished speaking, he couldn't help but fork in another piece and put it in his mouth.
Looking at Quan Zhaonian's childish appearance, Yu Mengqing felt even more distressed.
The scene when she first saw Quan Zhaonian is still vivid in her mind.
I didn't expect that the skinny boy has grown so big now.
Actually, if you think about it, Quan Zhaonian is just a teenager now.
In the apocalypse, a man his age should still be in high school!
Yet he has to bear so much.
Thinking of this, Yu Mengqing said to Caiyue beside her, "I'll pack some for Master Quan to take back and eat!"
"Yes, miss!"
"Princess Chu, this... this is so embarrassing! I..."
"Don't be embarrassed, they are all like this. Every time they are here with me, they carry and take things away!"
When saying this, Yu Mengqing raised her head towards Guo Peiying and the others.
However, after receiving Yu Mengqing's strange look, the few of them shamelessly pretended not to see it.
Just do what you should do.
Seeing this, Quan Zhaonian subconsciously became envious.
From the way they interacted, he knew that they were very good friends.
Once again, the Princess of Chu, although she was complaining about their faults, there was still a smile in her eyes.
It was not until he left that Quan Zhaonian realized that the Princess of Chu was not joking at all.
Because he was really holding baskets full of brine in his hands.
In addition to brine, there was also a wooden box of books.
These were all personally delivered to his residence by a carriage sent by Prince Zhan's palace.
Quan Zhaonian never dreamed that he would gain so much from this trip.
He was very nervous when he came, fearing that the Princess of Chu and the Prince of Chu would not want to see him.
I didn't expect the result to be like this.
Exactly the opposite result of oneself.
Only after Quan Zhaonian left did Yu Mengqing breathe a sigh of relief.
"Actually, I'd like to go to the northwest and take another look." Xue Zhonglan touched her belly and sighed.
However, the speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional.
When Yu Mengqing heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up.
There is nothing much for her to do in the capital now.
Zui Xiang Lou was already on the right track, and with Cai Xia as the manager, she could completely let it go.
The servants took care of the affairs of the mansion, and the three children had a wet nurse to take care of them...
Thinking of this, Yu Mengqing became even more eager to act.
At this moment, Yu Mengqing didn't know that the expression on her face was seen by Chu Shiheng next to her.
He knew before that she wanted to go to the northwest.
It seems that the opportunity has come now.
He also wanted to take her to travel around the world and be a carefree couple.
So, that night, when the two of them finished making love, Chu Shiheng mentioned this matter to Yu Mengqing.
"You also want to go to the northwest?" Yu Mengqing asked with wide eyes.
"Well, I want you to go with me!" Chu Shiheng said softly.
Hearing this, Yu Mengqing immediately understood.
They have been married for many years, so what is there that she doesn't understand?
I guess he must have known that I wanted to go to the Northwest, so he told me about this, right?
Thinking of this, Yu Mengqing took the initiative to offer her red lips again.
Putting her hand on his lips, she whispered, "Chu Shiheng, thank you. I'm very happy to have met you in this life!"
Chu Shiheng lowered his head, kissed her back, and said softly, "Silly..."
