Chapter 249 Who can handle this?

There is no shortage of people in the Shang Palace Bureau, but there is a shortage of money in the emperor's treasury.

Every year, Guangdong and Guangxi ask for money to build roads and dig canals. If they are not given money, they will jointly write a letter with officials from the two places to tarnish the reputation of Emperor Xuanwu and make the people think that the court does not allocate funds.

But how can they build roads every year and ask the court for money every year?

Even if the emperor's treasury is not empty, no emperor would complain about having too much money.

Jiang Xinyue glanced at Emperor Xuanwu. His eyebrows were tightly furrowed, there was a dim light flashing in his eyes, and his lips were tightly pursed into a line, looking unhappy.

But she noticed that his right hand was turning the jade ring on his left thumb, and the frequency of the rotation was not heavy, but a little brisk.

He wanted the Qin family's property, but he didn't want people to think that he was a greedy emperor.

Although he was greedy for these things for the betterment of the Great Yan Dynasty, it would be embarrassing to say it out loud.

As long as she could see his attitude clearly, Jiang Xinyue knew what to do.

She walked forward, helped Qin Ruofang up from the ground under her anxious eyes, and smiled softly at her: "Miss Qin, for the sake of her parents and sister, dared to stand up to the emperor, which is really commendable. Not to mention that the ladies present here feel sorry for you, I can't bear to see it either." The

beautiful imperial concubine looked at the emperor and said coquettishly: "Your Majesty, please agree to Miss Qin! Let her join the Shang Palace Bureau and make a few beautiful hairpins for me! I have heard of the name of Qin's Jewelry Pavilion in the palace! Can you fulfill my wish this time?" All

the men present felt soft in their hearts.

If there was such a beauty who acted coquettishly to them, even a copper wall or an iron wall would open a hole for her.

Who can withstand this?

Emperor Xuanwu said that he couldn't stand it. His eyes, which were full of frost a moment ago, showed tenderness that he didn't often show when he looked at Jiang Xinyue: "Since it is Yue'er's request, how dare I say no?"

He turned his head and glanced at Tang Shiliang: "I left a boat here. You bring people to accompany Miss Qin to deal with family affairs, and then come to the palace together. At that time, I will arrange for the female officials of the Shanggong Bureau to replace you."

"Your servant obeys your order."

Qin Ruofang showed gratitude on her face. While thanking the emperor, she did not forget to bow to Jiang Xinyue.

After such a small episode, everyone understood that the Royal Concubine had an unshakable position in the emperor's heart.

"Grr...Grr..."

The gorgeous boats were crowded on the water and sailing towards Chenzhou. A violent dry belching sound came from the cabin of the main ship.

"It's so uncomfortable, really so uncomfortable...wow..."

Magpie fanned her nose and quietly opened the window of the cabin to breathe. Nanny Lu, who was pale from vomiting, rushed over and lay at the window to breathe fresh air.

But then wave after wave came, her stomach was churning and her head was dizzy: "I...I feel like I'm going to die."

"Puh, phuh, phuh..."

Magpie said while making her a bowl of dried orange peel water: "What nonsense are you talking about? We'll be there in half a day. Just bear with it and it will be quick."

"Xijue..."

Shuangjiang knocked on the door: "How is Nanny Lu? Can the Queen come in?"

Xijue jumped up quickly and blew all the smells in the cabin out of the window. After making sure that there was no bad smell, she ran over to open the door: "Queen, Shuangjiang, you are finally here. Nanny Lu is almost vomiting to death."

Jiang Xinyue stepped aside: "Doctor Yan, go in and take a look at her first."

After Doctor Yan went in, Jiang Xinyue followed him in. She was shocked when she saw Nanny Lu with a pale face.

She thought that the eldest princess who was prone to motion sickness would definitely get seasick, so she prepared countless motion sickness medicines and various sour, spicy, and sweet snacks for the eldest princess.

Before setting off, Xiao Xiangzi had done some research. No one in Hexi Palace was prone to car sickness. They had all overlooked it. Nanny Lu used to live in the village and had never left the village. How could she have taken a sedan chair or taken a boat to travel far?

Doctor Yan took her pulse and wrote a prescription. He was about to take Xiao Xiangzi and go get the medicine, but Nanny Lu waved her hand and said, "I don't want to take the medicine. I have to... I have to breastfeed the Sixth Prince. I can't take the medicine."

She was afraid that the medicine would be poisonous if it entered the human body and the Sixth Prince drank her milk.

After hearing this, Jiang Xinyue felt a little softer: "Don't worry, the medicine prescribed by Doctor Yan will definitely have no effect on the Sixth Prince."

Nanny Lu shook her head: "How can it have no effect? ​​Medicine is three-quarters poison, your majesty, you don't understand, I won't eat it, I... ugh... I can hold on."

Jiang Xinyue thought for a moment: "Then Doctor Yan, you give her some tangerine peel water, Xi Que will boil it for Nanny Lu to drink later."

Hearing that it was tangerine peel water, Nanny Lu didn't object. That thing can prevent the baby from getting flatulence, and there is no harm in drinking it.

She was honest and didn't understand the eye contact between the Royal Concubine and Doctor Yan and Xi Que.

What she finally got was a bowl of motion sickness medicine prepared by Imperial Physician Yan, which had no effect on the Sixth Prince.

After drinking it, Nanny Lu felt much better and sighed to Nanny Xiang: "It is indeed the Chenpi water in the palace. It is much more effective than the one in our countryside. I am not dizzy anymore."

Nanny Xiang glanced at the smiling Jiang Xinyue, took the Sixth Prince and put him in Nanny Lu's arms: "The Sixth Prince is hungry, feed him quickly!"

If this fool keeps talking, the Empress will reward her with 10 kilograms of Chenpi.

The Emperor dealt with such a big case of corrupt officials today, and many matters needed to be arranged, so he went to the front to discuss with the court officials.

The magistrate of Guiyang County and the governor of Qinzhou were both dismissed. The reason for this cannot be arranged in just a few words.

Qinzhou is located in a remote area. It is cold all year round, but there is plenty of sunshine. There are many Luan trees planted in Qinzhou, right on the river bank.

The yellow and green leaves on the branches of the trees are mixed together, forming a rich and colorful picture.

The most amazing thing is its pink and green flowers. It is not known whether they are flowers or fruits. They are strung together like small lanterns, spinning and falling in the air.

A rain of flowers can make painters intoxicated with its beauty.

Because there were beautiful scenery along the way, Jiang Xinyue didn't feel bored. The concubines in the harem were now huddled together for warmth, squeezing out her, the imperial concubine who was the only one favored by the emperor.

What's the matter?

Jiang Xinyue didn't care about this kind of fake sisterhood.

It would be a big joke to believe that there is true friendship among the women in the harem.

The scenery is so beautiful that the days pass by unnoticed.

When all the ships docked, it was already night.

On the shore were officials who had been waiting since morning. In the bright lights, Jiang Xinyue's feet didn't feel light and fluttery until she landed.

Nanny Lu seemed to come back to life, looking here and there, and finding everything new and interesting.

But she remembered what she had told the nanny, not to look at people, not to step out of the protection circle, and followed Xi Que and others closely.
