Chapter 94 Shi Yu will seize the throne
"In the thirteenth room, anyone under six years old and over sixty years old can receive free medical treatment."
"Free treatment!" the emperor muttered as he slowly sat down on his chair. "What does he want?"
What's the point?
Feng Ruobao couldn't answer either.
You could say he was seeking fame, but Prince Rong never used the name of Prince Rong's Mansion when doing these things.
Even when the flood in Jiangnan two years ago caused the people to be displaced and complain about the court, Prince Rong donated a large sum of money for disaster relief in the name of the court to appease the people.
He also sent people to pretend to be ordinary people and asked the people at Huimin Medical Clinic why they did this.
I asked a few people, and they all said yes and followed orders.
Of course, they were obeying King Rong's orders.
Over the past three years, whether it was the drought in the north or the floods in the south, the shadow of Prince Rong's Mansion was there, but it was all done in secret.
If Your Majesty had not sent people to keep an eye on Prince Rong's Mansion, it would have been difficult for Your Majesty to discover it.
The emperor didn't expect Feng Ruobao to answer anything, and said, "A girl who is valued so much by Lan Shu must have a good character."
"Your Majesty is right. Prince Rong will be grateful to you." Feng Ruobao said hurriedly.
The emperor sneered, "He won't, and I don't care. I am just looking for a marriage for him in consideration of his contributions to the Wei Dynasty over the past three years.
Otherwise, you will be old and sick all the time, and when you die, you won’t even leave behind any incense."
"Your Majesty is kind and benevolent." Feng Ruobao continued.
The emperor glanced at him and said, "Instead of wasting your time trying to curry favor with me, why don't you go and see if there are any foolish people trying to seize his property."
Feng Ruobao took the opportunity to retreat.
Previously, some powerful officials in the capital, seeing that Prince Rong had lost his power, wanted to seize his Yuyan Tower and made many moves, but they were all secretly punished by Your Majesty.
Although the money earned by King Rong did not go into the national treasury, it was eventually used for the benefit of the people.
Over the years, if it were not for the efforts of Prince Rong's Mansion, countless people in the Wei Dynasty would have died from droughts and floods, and countless more would have died from plagues and locust plagues.
It was also because of this that His Majesty slept a few more peaceful nights. Just for this reason, he would also help Prince Rong keep an eye on his property.
But would Prince Rong, who does good deeds without leaving a name, really care about this kingdom?
As His Majesty's personal steward, he could clearly see that His Majesty did not really dislike Prince Rong, so why did he have to be on guard against him at all times?
At the same time, in the imperial study, the emperor was staring at one place in a daze, his brows furrowed.
After a long moment, he finally sighed softly, "I'm becoming increasingly confused as to why you said he was trying to seize my kingdom and why I should always be on guard against him."
On the official road outside the city, Wei Qingyan and his companions rode their horses forward.
After Shi Yu and Jingzhe met up with them from a side road, they ran for many days without stopping and finally arrived outside Yongzhou City.
Yan Lan looked at the mountains outside Yongzhou City, feeling sad.
With so many mountains, where is his brother buried? How can they find him?
"Let's find a place to rest first and come back at night." Wei Qingyan also glanced at the mountains and dismounted.
If we search inch by inch, it will be very time-consuming. We can only wait until night time and use the power of resentment to search.
After hearing this, Yan Qing knew that she had made arrangements, so he nodded and got off the horse.
"I have a farm nearby." Shi Yu said.
There are some shops in the city where you can stay, but Yongzhou is the territory of Wei Qingyan's brother-in-law, King Jing. Once you enter the city, it will not be as convenient to come out at night as outside the city.
Wei Qingyan nodded.
A group of people followed Shi Yu to his manor to stay.
Only half of Zhuangzi's land was used to grow crops, and the other half was used to grow medicinal herbs.
Without waiting for Wei Qingyan to ask, Jingzhe took the initiative to introduce, "The master owns many medical clinics, and these medicinal materials are all supplied to his own clinics.
It's not his own territory, so he can't make it too conspicuous. Therefore, although the prince has many farms like this, they are not very large, and are half used for crops and half for medicinal herbs. "
This way, it won't attract attention.
When returning to Beijing, Wei Qingyan inquired about Shi Yu's current situation. He knew that he was now very good at business, but he didn't know that he was so low-key and cautious now.
Wei Qingyan suddenly felt distressed. If it were the old Shi Yu, he would definitely take over the largest farm in the city and plant whatever he wanted in a high-profile manner.
Experiences change a person, and so do weaknesses.
"Have you done a lot of good things since you opened the clinic?"
Some things, once you get to your heart and think about them carefully, you will be able to understand them.
He was even willing to give her his own soul fire, so how could he not do good deeds for her?
I had been curious before, because Shi Yu was rich from the moment he was born, and his fiefdom was a rare prosperous place in the Wei Dynasty.
Even after the death of the late emperor, he had no one to rely on, but he had no worries about money. Why would he think about doing business when he was sick and weak?
Jingzhe was a little surprised, but then he thought General Wei was really smart, and immediately decided to take credit for his master.
He told everything about how Shi Yu had opened a clinic over the years, helped the people, and built bridges and roads for the poor people in remote mountainous areas.
“Some things were done by the master in the name of the Protector General. To express his gratitude to the Protector General, the people named the bridge the Protectorate Bridge.
Some people even erected a monument to the Protector General and offered incense and sacrifices during festivals, hoping to accumulate merit for him.
No wonder the girl’s health visibly improved after the lotus seal was formed.
Lan Shu glanced at Shi Yu and her impression of him changed a lot.
Jingzhe was unusually smart. He felt that he had said everything he wanted to say and could leave, so he invited Lan Shu to join him in the kitchen to prepare food for the two masters.
Yan Lan and others also retreated.
"Aunt, are you satisfied with me?" Shi Yu walked closer to Wei Qingyan, and when their sleeves touched, he hooked his fingers with hers.
Wei Qingyan laughed, "Auntie might not be able to see through your intentions."
If he didn't want to show off, he would have scolded Jingzhe as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Then I will do better in the future. Auntie will always be able to trust you to me."
Shi Yu smiled, "The crying child gets candy. I also want Xiao Yan to feel sorry for me."
The matter of the soul fire has been discussed. There is nothing left to hide. Xiao Yan will know it sooner or later.
He is honest.
"The emperor also knows?" Wei Qingyan asked.
Shi Yu nodded, "Knowing something, he's worried about me. If I don't let him know anything, he'll be watched even more closely.
This Wei Dynasty is his world. When I give alms and do good deeds, his people will benefit, and it is also a disguised way of giving him benefits.
He would turn a blind eye to some things and even help protect my properties.
Otherwise, how could my medicine shop spread so quickly throughout the Great Wei? In terms of compassion for the people, he is a good emperor."
Shi Yu rarely put aside his prejudice against the emperor and gave a truthful evaluation.
Wei Qingyan also agreed with this point. At least the emperor did not take Shi Yu's property for himself and squander it recklessly.
But deep down she was grateful to Shi Yu, "Thank you."
Shi Yu hooked his finger with hers and said with a smile, "You never said thank you to me before, I also had my own selfish motives.
Half of the Wei Dynasty was built by your Wei family. It has not been easy for the Wei family to protect the country for thirty years since the founding of the country. I hope that when you return, you can see that the people you protected live and work in peace and contentment. "
He paused, the corners of his lips raised, "In this way, I can take credit for it with you like I am doing now, right?"
yes.
But more importantly, Shi Yu himself is kind-hearted and cares about the world.
Wei Qingyan's heart was touched, and she wanted to hold his hand back, but doubts about her own life experience suddenly popped up in her mind. Her fingers stiffened, and she calmly withdrew her hand, "Shi Yu, after we find Yan Qing's body, I want to go see my mother."
