The lucky star of rebirth

Chapter 107
"Wu Liang, take these shoes, this dress, and this purse...all out and throw them away."

Ji Songxian swiped her hands, and told Ruo Liang to tidy up all the things she won from Cheng Ping'an's body, out of sight and out of mind. After tidying up, she picked out a few things she liked, and the rest All the spoils were given to Wu Shi.

Afterwards, Ji's family went back to the house to rest, Ji Songxian was too excited after returning to the house to freshen up, he was not sleepy, and he would not fall asleep until dawn.

In this way, she got up late on the second day, and she didn't get up until noon. When she got up, she was shocked when she saw the sky, and complained that Zhuo Liang didn't ask her to get up earlier.

Raoliang was also wronged: "I originally wanted to wake up the girl, but the old lady told Sister Suixin to come over. She said that the girl was tired last night, so she didn't have to get up so early today, and said that the master and a few others would be excluded. Those who have to go to work must get up early, and everyone from the old lady to the wives in the other rooms have to sleep in late."

In this way, Ji Songxian breathed a sigh of relief, changed his clothes unhurriedly, and rushed over to pay his respects to Mrs. Wu at noon.

After talking with Mrs. Wu for a while, the steward came to look for Ji Songxian, and said that she had bought a lot of cotton and cotton cloth, and stocked them in a village outside the city. Ji Songxian was very happy when he heard that, and immediately called I found a small shop selling cosmetics and powders to sell those ready-made sanitary napkins.

After lunch, Ji Songxian took the chapter of her daughter's journey to the printing workshop to print. Because he won a lot of battles in the previous day, Ji Songxian was very happy. don't feel tired.

It's just that she is happy here, but Ji Yi has encountered difficulties.

It turned out that Princess Jinyang and Cheng Ping'an almost lost all their clothes. They felt extremely ashamed. After Cheng Ping'an returned, they held grudges against Ji Songxian and complained a little about Princess Jinyang.

Feng Rongrong and Princess Jinyang also had festivals, so they blew pillows with Cheng Ping'an, and said softly to Cheng Ping'an: "Cheng Lang has really suffered, if I were, no matter how angry I was, I would not insist on going to prison regardless of Cheng Lang's face. Pounce, Princess Jinyang is sincere to Cheng Lang in the left sentence, and only Cheng Lang is in her heart in the right sentence, and you value love and righteousness the most, so she coaxes you to take it seriously. I have pity for Cheng Lang's kind temper, but Princess Jinyang treats you as if What's the matter, I'm watching, I'm afraid she doesn't have you in her heart at all, otherwise, how could she embarrass you like this."

Speaking of this, Feng Rongrong sighed: "Since my aunt passed away, our sisters have been looking forward to having a mistress who can take our sisters together, serve the husband well, and have fun together, sisters know When Mr. Lang was going to marry Princess Jinyang, he was so happy. They all said that we would have a leader in the future, and we happily hoped that the princess would come in one day. How could I expect it... This is not what I should have said , I’m just feeling uncomfortable, so it’s inevitable that I’ll babble a bit, don’t worry about it, Lord.”

She kept telling Cheng Pingan not to care, but once she finished speaking, Cheng Pingan couldn't care less, not only didn't care, but cared even more.

Cheng Ping'an became more and more prejudiced against Princess Jinyang, and felt that she was not as sensible as the concubines in the family. After a comparison, she was not as virtuous and magnanimous as the deceased Feng Shi. Although she didn't say anything on the surface, Feng Rongrong I can also feel that I am peaceful, and I can't help but sneer.

Cheng Ping'an was uncomfortable on this side, and Princess Jinyang was also uncomfortable on that side. She calmed down after she went back, recalling her behavior on the street, regretting and annoyed at the same time.

He regretted taking Cheng Ping'an's clothes so recklessly, and was annoyed that Ji Songxian knew that it was inappropriate and provoked her, which made her lose face.

Princess Jinyang was always self-willed, so a lot of things happened with her anger.

Today, Ji Yi went to the Yamen to read a lot of papers and had many things to report to Emperor Ming Qingfeng, so he took the papers with him to the palace to ask for an audience. After entering the palace, he walked along the white marble road, bypassed a small gate, and looked at him. When we get to Qianqing Palace, I don't want to have a few people come over from the diagonal stab.

The first one is Princess Jinyang. Princess Jinyang is dressed in a red phoenix shirt, dressed like a fairy concubine, and there are several maids behind her, some with fans, some with chairs, and some with soft cushions, etc. .

Ji Yi looked at Princess Jinyang and bowed to salute: "I have seen the princess before."

Princess Jinyang looked at Ji Yi coldly, shook her sleeves and said nothing, a maid jumped out behind her and pointed at Ji Yi, "Bold, why don't you kneel down when you see the princess?"

Ji Yi raised his head sharply, and fixed his eyes on the maid for a moment, full of majesty: "Where did the little girl come from, she is so ignorant of etiquette, and the old man is a prime minister at such an old age, and his majesty doesn't usually pay homage to your majesty." Telling the old man to kneel, he will also give him a seat, even if he talks about the government affairs, he sits down and talks about it, the princess is His Majesty's own sister, how can he not know this, the princess hasn't said anything yet, a slave like you is so bold."

Princess Jinyang snorted coldly, feeling even more annoyed in her heart, saying that the old man Ji really deserved to be Ji Songxian's father, and he was equally eloquent, but she couldn't refute what Ji Yi said, so she could only bear her anger and say: "What Ji Xiang said is that it's all this slave, isn't it?"

Speaking of this, Princess Jinyang suddenly thought of a good idea, she smiled and said: "I have always heard that the emperor said that Ji Xiang has worked hard and made great achievements, and he has to work hard for state affairs at such an age. He only said that he would reward Ji Xiang. Hearing that, I think it's right, I saw Ji Xiang today, so how about I give this maid to Ji Xiang?"

Without waiting for Ji Yi's reaction, Princess Jinyang said again: "My maid is also proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and can also write poems and lyrics. Ji Xiang is a great talent. I think she can also talk to Ji Xiang. She is also old. After a while, Su admired Ji Xiang again, and only wanted to find someone as talented as Ji Xiang to be a husband, and Ji Xiang's family happened to lack a red-sleeved man, so wouldn't it be just right, there couldn't be a better thing than this. "

At the end of the words, Princess Jinyang covered her mouth and chuckled: "Chun'e, clean up for a while and then go out of the palace with Ji Xiang."

The maid didn't think about such a thing, she was shocked immediately, and then blessed her body: "I will clean it up now."

Ji Yi didn't object, didn't say anything, just looked at Princess Jinyang a few times and took the booklet into Qianqing Palace. Princess Jinyang thought that her plan had succeeded, and was so happy that she asked someone to clean up Chun'e quickly. Send her to wait for Ji Yi outside Qianqing Palace.

But he said that Ji Yi entered the Qianqing Palace and talked about many state affairs with Emperor Qingfeng, and then finished talking about various affairs, talking about several treaty ports such as Quanzhou and Guangzhou, and discussing how to change the tariff all at once.

It turned out that not only the Great Xia Dynasty, but also many previous dynasties set up tariffs for trade with foreign countries, with more exports than imports.

That is, when the country sells goods abroad, the tariffs are extremely heavy, while when foreign countries sell goods into the country, the tariffs are very light.

The rulers of all dynasties have the idea that they don't want to let the good things of the dynasty flow out, set heavy taxes to prevent the things of the dynasty from being sold outside, and the things outside can be bought and sold in the dynasty at will, so there is Such a strange tariff.

Ji Yi also thought it should be, but after Ji Songxian wrote the article about Future Tour, she confessed to Ji Yi and Wu Shi that she really went to the future when she committed suicide, and she got many memories that should not have appeared. In this way, Ji Yi Just pay attention, these days I often discuss various future policies with Ji Songxian.

He wants to know how future generations govern the country, how to prevent corruption, how to enforce law and order, and how to prevent crime.

When Ji Songxian mentioned that some countries in later generations have increased customs duties, and that the goods from other countries have heavy taxes on goods that flow into their own countries, while the taxes on goods exported from their own countries are much lighter, Ji Yi expressed his incomprehension, and then Ji Songxian I talked to him about trade surplus and deficit, and popularized the most common trade concept in later generations.

Ji Yi became vigilant all of a sudden, and after careful consideration, he felt that the methods of the later generations were indeed more correct. This time, he mentioned it to Emperor Qingfeng and wanted to change the tariff.

Emperor Qingfeng thought for a while and then wanted to find a customs office to try, to see if the tax revenue would be better.

The monarch and his ministers discussed for a long time, and when the discussion was settled, Ji Yi stood up and greeted Emperor Qingfeng again: "Your Majesty, Princess Jinyang wants to give me a maid, but I am afraid that your majesty also knows that my old wife can't tolerate this the most. , I am afraid that I will be beaten when I go back, so I ask Your Majesty to hire that maid herself."

"What happened to Jinyang?"

Emperor Qingfeng was annoyed when he heard that Ji Yi was his important minister, and what he was most annoyed and afraid of was the meddling of Empress Dowager Gao's lineage in the government. Now that Princess Jinyang wants to give Ji Yi away, Emperor Qingfeng couldn't help but think more , he naturally wondered if Empress Dowager Gao wanted to win over Ji Yi or something, and he was naturally very angry.

Ji Yi shook his head and smiled wryly: "Who knows, the old minister guessed that it was because the minister's daughter Guan defeated Princess Jinyang last night. The princess couldn't afford to lose for a while, so she wanted to trouble the old minister. Who in Jinling City doesn't know that the old minister is the most She is afraid of her inner self, the princess will not send her away, and she will give the old official a maid, who is still young and beautiful, if the old official really takes it back, he will not ask the old official's wife to beat her to death."

Ji Yi didn't think it was shameful to be afraid of his wife, so he said it very frankly: "The old minister is too old to stand this kind of trouble."

The more angry Emperor Qingfeng was, he slapped the table: "Jinyang is getting more and more unsightly now, well, I'm here to decide this matter for you, you go back first, I have a place to take care of that maid."

Ji Yi thanked Emperor Qingfeng and left Qianqing Palace. As soon as he went out, the maid named Chun'e followed, Ji Yi ignored her, Chun'e followed step by step, after a few steps, Wei Mou came out Call her: "Come here."

Chun'e glanced back at Wei Mou, as if she knew something, she bowed to Wei Mouwei: "Eunuch Wei, the princess summons the slave to serve Ji Xiang, and the slave wants to leave the palace with Ji Xiang to go home. If Wei Gonggong has something to do, Let's call someone else."
