Chapter 800: Bad appetite
Liu Yunxiang insisted on living in Wanchun Garden, but pushed Li Huai's affection away. Li Huai was a little unhappy, but he didn't dare to say anything else.
"The scenery in Wanchun Garden is beautiful, but it is not as peaceful as the home." Mrs. Li said this and paused. "Especially your status is valuable, and you can't be careless in terms of safety. Let's do this. Your husband will send more guards to guard the yard where the princess lives. By the way, he will also send some servants to serve, and all the food, clothing and expenses must be thoughtful and meticulous."
"Mrs. Li, there's no need to worry about it."
"What you want, and you have something wrong with Yanzhou. We can't explain to Your Highness Seventh."
Liu Yunxiang turned her mind and nodded and smiled, "Okay then."
However, she told Li Huai and his wife not to reveal her identity, "I came to Yanzhou to do business. It is not convenient to have the identity of the Princess of Zhenbei."
Li Huai and Mrs. Li responded all over, keeping the custody and not leaking it.
When he came to Wanchun Garden, he heard that Liu Yunxiang was about to live there. Gao Yuanwai was very enthusiastic. Seeing that Mrs. Li was busy, she ordered the guards of the hospital and transferred the servants to serve him, she couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.
"I am sorry that I have little knowledge, but I wonder if it is your mansion?"
Liu Yunxiang smiled, "I came to Yanzhou to do business."
“Do business?”
"Gao Yuanwai is a cloth merchant. You should know that the brocade industry in Jiangnan was very prosperous in the past. The brocade silk and satin produced was also well-known in all directions. Since the riot in Nanzhou, the brocade industry in Jiangnan has suffered a severe blow and is still sluggish. I bought a brocade workshop in Jiangnan. I wanted to revitalize the brocade industry in Jiangnan, but I am alone and my strength is so weak, so I want to cooperate with some cloth merchants."
Liu Yunxiang did have this purpose when he came to Yanzhou. Yanzhou also has a textile industry, mainly producing coarse cloth and cotton cloth, which is suitable for ordinary people to buy. However, Yanzhou also has Yan brocade, which is characterized by colorful colors. She has seen it once, and it is like weaving colorful clouds, which is very amazing. However, Yan brocade is not famous, not as good as Shu brocade and Yun brocade, which are difficult to see in silk and satin shops in other places.
"I wonder if Mr. Gao knows the boss of Luoxia cloth shop?"
Gao Yuanwai raised his eyebrows, "Do you want to find her to cooperate?"
"Yes, I heard that Luoxia Cloth Store has its own workshop, which specializes in producing Yanjin."
"I know him."
Liu Yunxiang was delighted on his face, "Please ask Mr. Gao to introduce me."
Gao Yuanwai bulged his belly and scratched the back of his head, as if he was a little embarrassed. Hongxuan said a few words to Liu Yunxiang, asking Gao Yuanwai to help him.
"Since the Taoist priest said that, I will go up the sword mountain and go down the sea of fire, so I will definitely help this."
Liu Yunxiang twitched the corner of her mouth. She just asked him to do something for a favor, and it was a small business, so why did she go up to the mountain of swords and fall into the sea of fire?
The room was cleaned up, and as soon as Liu Yunxiang sat down, Mrs. Li came again. She changed her clothes and the bright outer clothes were as bright as a colorful cloud. She seemed to be shining when she walked around.
"The color of Mrs. Li's clothes looks so good."
When Mrs. Li was happy, she immediately became a little awkward, "It depends on who wears it... Cough cough, of course, it looks better if the princess wears it."
Liu Yunxiang smiled, "Is this fabric Yan Jin?"
"The princess knows the goods, it's Yan Jin."
"I wonder where Mrs. Li bought it?"
"Liaoxia cloth."
Liu Yunxiang nodded and was about to ask a few more questions, but Mrs. Li directed the maid behind her to put a food box up. When the food box was opened, a strong oily smell stood on the surface. Liu Yunxiang might as well, and immediately became disgusted.
Since she became pregnant, she has not eaten too much oily or smelled it.
"Ah, Princess, what's wrong with you?" Mrs. Li hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern.
Liu Yunxiang waved his hand, pointed to the food box, and asked Zijin to take it farther away.
Mrs. Li exclaimed, "This is a famous fried candy bun in Yanzhou. It's just out of the pot. I'll deliver it to you while it's hot. Don't you like it?"
"I can't eat too much oil recently."
Mrs. Li looked at Liu Yunxiang, thought for a while, and asked, "Are you happy?"
Liu Yunxiang shook her head and smiled, "No, it's just that my stomach has been bad recently."
"So that's the case." Mrs. Li asked the maid to put away the food box and asked them to take it outside.
Liu Yunxiang had been running around for a day, and she couldn't eat well after she became pregnant and couldn't keep up with her energy. At this moment, she felt so tired that she yawned repeatedly, but Mrs. Li told her that she was old.
"Mrs. Li, it's almost time to order for supper." Liu Yunxiang reminded.
"No, I ordered a table of dishes in Tianan Building. Do you think we will go over and eat or let them deliver it here?"
Liu Yunxiang had no choice but to say, "I'm tired, let's talk about it later."
Mrs. Li's smile froze, then she forced a smile, "Then let's prepare a banquet at home and invite a few wives from local officials in Yanzhou, so you can join us."
Liu Yunxiang was about to refuse, but Mrs. Li said again: "Don't worry, you won't reveal your identity. Moreover, these ladies have some connections. If you want to do business in Yanzhou, you must deal with them."
Liu Yunxiang thought for a while and nodded, "Okay."
After sending Mrs. Li away, Liu Yunxiang had a simple supper, and then lay down in bed to rest.
The next day, Liu Yunxiang asked Zijin to go to Qu Moran's place first and found out that Li Zhu had not appeared yet.
"Doctor Qu is very worried about him." Zi Jin said.
"Maybe I should tell her the truth."
If Lee Joo never comes back, the more expectations, the greater the harm will be.
Hongxuan wanted to go to a place called Qi County below Yanzhou. Last spring, the drought occurred here. Yang He's memorial said that the seedlings died, the particles were not harvested, and tens of thousands of people needed relief grains.
"Yang He wanted to get relief from the court, but after three years of riots, the grain warehouse was empty in order to raise military funds. He even sent three memorials, and all three memorials were suppressed. In the end, the court did not give Qi County a piece of relief grain." Hongxuan said while stroking his beard.
Xue Changfeng widened his eyes, "The grain warehouse is empty, so other places can provide relief first. Even if you pay for the tax grain for the next year, you have to think of a way. You can't watch the people starve to death, right?"
Hongxuan shook his head, "The emperor pressed down the memorial, and the officials covered their eyes and closed their ears, regardless of whether they asked or listened."
Liu Yunxiang frowned, "Last spring, His Highness Seventh and I just returned to Beijing, and we really don't know about this."
"The princess donated 100,000 stones of food last year, which is already a great merit. There are many people suffering from Darong, and no matter how capable you have, you can't help it."
Xue Changfeng gritted his teeth, "The people are the foundation of the country. The court, regardless of the lives of the people, will start to rot like a pillar, and will sooner or later collapse!"
Hongxuan sighed, "If you want to not collapse, you must lift up a new beam and pillar and remove the rotten one."
