The world is heavy and late

Chapter 222 Profitable
Qiao Huan looked at the time, waited for the time to pass the dinner, and ordered a plate of Jinyu sweet-scented sweet-scented osmanthus cake.

Xia Qing read the booklet for a while, then picked up the pen that was left on the washbasin, took the paper and began to check the calculation.

There was silence, and when Xia Qing put down the pen, Qiao Huan's eyes retracted from each piece of paper. Xia Qing looked at the final result and asked, "Have you seen the empress?"

Qiao Huan came back to her senses: "Yes, according to the father-in-law's tone, the empress should be satisfied."

Xia Qing directly put away the papers and handed them to Qiao Huan to let her go to study by herself. She glanced at Shuyi's last signature, Gong Yiling, she closed the opened Shuyi and said, "Forget it, I'll look for it tomorrow." Tell me, Empress Dowager."

She let out a sigh of relief, she didn't seem to be agitated just now, but she was preoccupied. After thinking for a long time, she said: "The manpower on the side of the Siwu Division can no longer be transferred. Do you know who else in the Sixth Division is smarter? It's better to be better at math." .”

Qiao Huan was stopped by the question for a moment, and after a long silence, he said, "What kind of person does Auntie want? A maid or a servant?"

Xia Qing stroked the jade gourd, and pondered: "Female officials are the best, and it doesn't matter if court ladies and eunuchs are fine; if you can handle affairs and have excellent accounting skills, the accounts in this meeting are not good enough."

Qiao Huan was a little surprised. She knew Xia Qing admired Ji Ling a lot. Could it be that the small talk she personally made didn't catch her eye?

Xia Qing didn't hear Qiao Huan's answer. She raised her head and saw Qiao Huan's expression. She handed the briefing to Qiao Huan and said, "Look through this briefing. Is it different from the ones you usually hand over?"

Qiao Huan paused, and took it with both hands. She read a lot of Xia Qing's papers here, and many of them were not so important or urgent. , even more puzzled.

"My servant thinks that Ji Ling... the girl's remarks are not inferior, fluent and elegant."

Xia Qing nodded and motioned her to read again: "Her rhetoric has always been outstanding, but the accounts are not clear. She is not responsible for purchasing and knows very little about the market. Secondly, with the platform she set up, she can't do it alone. If you can't finish singing this play, you have to find someone who is smarter to answer for her."

Qiao Huan had heard Xia Qing's words, and after carefully reading the discussion, she could find the problem. She thought for a while and said, "I can't think of anyone right now."

Xia Qing nodded, expressing his understanding, and suddenly seemed to think of something and said: "A few days ago, I mentioned to the company the story of the law department, Su Ye, was very quick-witted? What does her family do?"

Qiao Huan knew all the stories about these newcomers, just for this kind of moment: "She is the daughter of an eighth-rank master of the Ministry of Punishment."

Xia Qing raised her eyebrows and said: "Daughter, should I have taught the housekeeper? This account management skill should be good too?"

Qiao Huan lowered her head: "It's not bad, but I'm afraid I still need to discuss her whereabouts with Hu Sizheng."

Xia Qing knew, "She is going to be sent by Hu Si?"

Qiao Huan remained calm. If Xiang Cang hadn't often come to tell some gossip about such trivial matters, she might not have known about them.

"That's not true. It's just that Hu Sizheng thinks that Su's anecdote has a lot to do, and Peng Si made a few positive remarks. Now Su's anecdote is very popular in the Silu department."

Because of this matter, she was also greatly excluded, but there was no need to tell Aunt Xia.

Xia Qing sighed and said: "It's not easy to win love again, anyway, you should pay attention to other people first."

Qiao Huan agreed.

Early the next morning, Xia Qing took Shu Yi to the main hall, perhaps it was too early, and happened to meet His Royal Highness and Second Highness who came to greet him.

The Second Highness Jing Ning rushed forward to ask Xia Qing to hug him. Xia Qing bowed to Prince Gu Weiyun before picking up the Second Highness and said, "Your Highness, you must be careful now. Your Majesty still has a baby."

The Second Highness ignored Xia Qing's words and started quacking, quacking, and talking about what he had done these days. It was difficult for Xia Qing to intervene, so she couldn't help but glance at Gu Weiyun, who gave her a look of helplessness .

God knows that she listens to this every morning, and her head is getting bigger. It's really strange. Neither she nor the emperor are talkative people, so why this kid can't stop talking all day.

It was still His Royal Highness who couldn't help watching the joke for a while, and finally he couldn't stand it and said: "Shut up, and keep yelling that I won't take you today."

Jing Ning's voice faltered, and he immediately covered his mouth with his hand, and turned his face towards the prince to indicate that he would not talk too much, his eyes flickered.

Helplessly, the crown prince has been seen for a long time. He looked at Xia Qing and said, "What have you been doing these days? It looks like you are going to be sick?"

Xia Qing smiled brightly at the prince. It's been a long time since she saw him, but she still misses him a little: "I can't help but think about those things, I just didn't sleep well yesterday, where is Your Highness?"

Seeing Xia Qing's bright smiling face, the prince nodded proudly and said, "It's good to be alone, why can't you sleep peacefully?"

The prince was still too young when Gu Weiyun was pregnant last time, and Xia Qing was also accompanied by Xu Zhong, so she looked different, Xia Qing didn't say why, she just smiled and said: "I can't sleep after drinking some strong tea, Your Highness Hurry up and go to the Chongwen Museum, if it is too late, the Grand Tutor may be going to remonstrate."

Xia Qing was just reminding him casually, but the crown prince gave Xia Qing a look, turned around and left with his own little tail.

Xia Qing was a little confused, this was some kind of madness suddenly, if he didn't want to go or not, that's fine, who could force him to fail, why stare at her?
Gu Weiyun laughed lightly, waved away everyone in the hall, looked at Xia Qing and said, "Your Majesty's letter also arrived yesterday."

Xia Qing understood instantly, gloating: "Did you scold Your Highness?"

Gu Weiyun took a look at her, but didn't say anything against it. The emperor has always criticized the prince more than he praised him, but he can also give people a glimpse of a father's love, so that the pair of monarchs and ministers, father and son, are not left with only cold rights. .

Xia Qing accepted Gu Weiyun's signal, but did not give up easily, and still gloated: "I think His Majesty should scold you too."

Gu Weiyun was helpless, Xia Qing smiled triumphantly, Gu Weiyun knew that she might be pregnant and didn't tell the emperor, if she could let the emperor get angry.

Wuzi laughed for a while before taking the proposal in his hand and said: "I would like you to think about this proposal for a while."

Gu Weiyun paused, took the comment but did not open it: "Do you think there is a mistake?"

Xia Qing smiled and said: "This method is very good, but the most important point is wrong."

Gu Weiyun was a little puzzled, she asked, "Where is it?"

Xia Qing said directly: "Because it's not profitable."

Gu Weiyun was a little stunned, and then smiled and said: "This is not a hindrance, there is no need for the emperor's private treasury, even my private treasury is enough. My Gu family may not be as noble as the aristocratic family, but it has never been short of money."

Listening to Gu Weiyun's rich and powerful words, Xia Qing deeply felt that the fate was unfair, the drought died, and the flood died.

She looked at Gu Weiyun with a heavy face and said, "I don't think it's very good for you to say this in front of others, especially in front of me."

Gu Weiyun smiled and pushed Xia Qing, of course she knew that Xia Qing was joking, and she also comforted: "So you don't have to worry, if this money can be exchanged for more women's dignity, even all my private property, I will buy it for you." If you don’t hesitate, you will feel worthy of the move.”

Xia Qing looked at the serious Gu Weiyun, and felt admiration and admiration in his heart. This is Gu Weiyun, the Gu Weiyun who was looking for a way out for the girl, really hasn't changed at all.

Even with her influence around her, Gu Weiyun himself is already ahead of too many people, maybe some people are born leaders?

She looked at Gu Weiyun and said, "I didn't say this because I love your money. After all, your money can only be yours, not mine. Why do I feel sorry for you?"

Xia Qing had a narrow face, and Gu Weiyun was amused and puzzled: "Why is that?"
