Chapter 437 Palace Banquet Crisis
Bai Zhi was finally recognized, which shocked many people's jaws.

But when she thought of the child in her womb, she felt normal again.

Now that Prince Jing's mansion has recognized this concubine's room, it's inappropriate for Bai Yanxi to shout and kill again. For the sake of Prince Jing's mansion, he asked Mrs. Bai to prepare a not-so-heavy gift for him.

This can be regarded as the support from the mother's family.

Bai Zhi knew what kind of person his father was like, seeing that he might be useful, he began to show his favor, but at this juncture, Bai Zhi did not refuse.

Her goal is Su Luo, don't make any troubles.

After winter, people tend to be lazy. The old lady and Princess Ning and Su Luo go there once every five days, and eat, sleep and sleep in the yard for the rest of the day.

Everything in Furu Zhifang is on the right track, and Zhang Xi comes to report once a month.

The two brothers managed the paper workshop very well, and the accounts were very clear. In the first few months, due to natural disasters and man-made disasters, they could barely make ends meet. However, in the past two or three months, the profits have skyrocketed.

During the family dinner, Su Luo accidentally said something that even Princess Pingning couldn't believe.

At the beginning, she withheld a lot of money from the paper workshop, but at that time the paper workshop itself did not earn much. The money Su Luo earns now is at least three times that of when she managed it!
This gap is too big!
What Su Luo meant was that although this Zhifang belongs to Jiang Shu's property, there is no separate family now. It is said that many of Xuelou's food and expenses are paid for by the public, so it should make some contributions to the Duke of Qi's government, so this part of the profit will be Take [-]% for confiscation.

The second and third wives are naturally happy to see the results, and the old lady nodded.

It's good that she dotes on Jiang Shu, but when the child grows up, if he knows how to feed back, that's the way of filial piety.

Su Luo will be the mistress of the Duke's Mansion in the future, and if everything is only planned for their small family, the old lady will be a little worried.

Except for the [-]%, the rest of the money went into the small coffers of Su Luo and Jiang Shu.The money will always be dead, Su Luo is lazy and doesn't want to spend his own time, so he gave some of it to Shen Cong.

Although Shen Cong became a Viscount, he didn't let go of business, he just took it as a hobby, but found a housekeeper, so he didn't show up easily.

Su Luo partnered with him to make money together.

The two have cooperated many times, and they trust each other with a tacit understanding. As soon as the black and white contract was signed, Su Luo lay under the covers and waited to collect the money.

After returning to her own yard, Tsing Yi was a little puzzled: "Miss, the second and third wives have made things difficult for you in the past. Now that you have confiscated all the money, you have made it easier for them!"

After walking all the way, it was very cold, Su Luo put his hands together by the fire and rubbed them repeatedly: "This is not my money, it is actually Jiang Shu's money, he is a descendant of the Jiang family, those are all He broke the bones and tendons of relatives. If they are peaceful, I don't want to do too much. Spend a little money, the buyers are harmonious, and no one comes to me to provoke me, I think it's worth it!"

Tsing Yi curled her lips: "Actually, miss, you are helping my uncle take care of everyone, miss, you have already regarded yourself as the future mistress!"

Su Luo paused, and slowly lowered his hand: "Go get some water, I want to wash my face!"

"Good class!" Tsing Yi didn't continue, turned around and left to work.

Su Luo's thoughts flew far away involuntarily.

In the depths of my heart, is it really what Tsing Yi said?

No, no!
It's just a habit.

She used to be a queen, and she had to do some hypocritical things in order to manage her affairs in her position. What she does now is just a habit left over from her previous life.

Moreover, since she sought Jiang Shu's protection, she naturally had the responsibility to make his family harmonious.

You can't ask him to protect yourself and disturb his family's restlessness at the same time!

Su Luo finally found a suitable excuse and let out a long breath!

In this way, half of the twelfth lunar month passed quickly.

The winter solstice is here.

The fighting in the north is still going on. Yecheng is cold, and the north is even colder. Those northern barbarians lack clothing and food, and attacking south is the only way to save their lives.

Rather than being frozen to death, it is better to give it a go.

The country of Yue is rich, there is food and clothing in the city, and there is no need to go hungry or cold. This belief supports every Beiyi people, allowing them to explode into unprecedented fighting power.

Yue Huang knew early on that this war would not end so soon.

The Beiyi people will not retreat, unless the spring is warm and the pastures turn green, those barbarians may retreat.

Fortunately, the Duke of Qi was brave and good at fighting, and in many fights, he won more than he lost, and the whole country of Beiyi went south, and only captured one city.And it was because the army lacked weapons at that time, otherwise, maybe even a city would not have to be lost.

At first, everyone was trembling.

But as the war entered a stalemate and the end of the year was approaching, Yecheng gradually regained its vitality.

The queen, who had been ill since Lin Hongyuan's death, finally recovered at the beginning of the twelfth lunar month under the careful care of the imperial physician.

She suggested to His Majesty that a palace banquet be held during the winter solstice.

The more tense the war is, the more relaxed the atmosphere must be created, so that the courtiers and the common people know that this war is nothing special, and the Yue Kingdom will definitely win!

The Emperor Yue felt that the queen's proposal was quite good and agreed!
No, the aristocratic families in Yecheng, officials and officials of the fifth rank or above, all received invitations for the Winter Solstice Palace Banquet, and the Qi State Duke's Mansion was no exception.

The old lady is old, and it is not suitable to travel in the cold winter months, so she will not go.

Princess Pingning brought Su Luo and Jiang Yingying into the palace.

After several months of hard work, Jiang Yingying is now as graceful as the first-opened stalks, and she is still a little worse than Su Luo, but compared to her before, it is simply a world of difference.

Princess Pingning was very excited, and urged the tailor to make new clothes for Jiang Yingying, and kept telling her: "You have to behave well when you enter the palace. Your mother and I have been gossiping a lot behind other people's backs over the years. Now I want them to take a good look at it!"

Jiang Yingying was still a little nervous: "Mother, I, I don't think I'm ready yet!"

"What are you talking about, you just need to follow behind me, hold your head up and let others see your current figure!"

"But mother, I think the material you chose for me looks like a flower peacock. I'm not here to open the tail. My sister-in-law said that my face and figure are suitable for a more elegant dress, which can highlight my temperament. !"

Princess Pingning...

I feel uncomfortable.

My daughter actually felt that Su Luo's words were more reasonable than her own.

Jiang Yingying also knew her mother, so she quickly took out the two clothes she had prepared a long time ago: "A few days ago, my sister-in-law asked someone to make them for me. I think they look good in them. Look at them, mother..."

In the end, Jiang Yingying entered the palace wearing the clothes prepared by Su Luo. When Su Luo got into the carriage, Princess Pingning let out a cold snort from her nasal cavity.
