After last night¡¯s fuss, Emperor Jinghe still couldn¡¯t hold it back when he returned to the palace and directly visited Wang Zhaoyuan.
Early in the morning, while still sleeping with his little wife in his arms, he heard voices outside.
The best charcoal is lit in the room, which is very warm. In this early spring season, it is especially easy for people to be greedy for bed.
After all, Emperor Jing He was old, and it was difficult to fall asleep once he woke up. He frowned, gently pushed Wang Zhaoyuan away like an octopus, covered her with a quilt, and then stood up. .
Wang Zhaoyuan is young, and after struggling for a long time last night, she turned around and fell asleep sweetly again.
The eunuch who was waiting in the corner quickly came forward: "Your Majesty, do you want a drink of water or a courtesy?"
"I'm going to get up." Emperor Jinghe said lazily, and he touched his waist, feeling a little sore.
It seems that time is still not forgiving!
¡°If I step back ten years, I will still be as powerful as a dragon or a tiger.
The emperor sighed, stood up and asked the eunuchs and maids to dress him, and asked by the way: "Who is talking outside?"
"It's General Manager Zhao, and His Royal Highness King De is also there." A eunuch replied.
"Mingqi is here too?" Emperor Jinghe said in surprise, "What time is it now?"
"Replying to your Majesty, it's already two o'clock."
"Huh? It's so late?"
Emperor Jinghe blushed a little. At normal times, he would have already gotten up, eaten, finished exercising, and started to deal with business.
¡°If it were a big meeting, more than half of the things that should be discussed would have been discussed at this point in time.
Sure enough, beauty is the main culprit that emperors, generals and ministers have been coveting for enjoyment since ancient times!
Fortunately, today is a holiday, and he will not go to court until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. It is also a rare holiday for the emperor.
With their thoughts swirling, they had already finished dressing Emperor Jinghe, and then a palace maid handed over a steaming towel, while another palace maid next to him held green salt and willow branches for washing.
After a simple wash, Emperor Jinghe walked through the door of the bedroom and walked through the small hall outside.
Seeing the emperor coming, the eunuch guarding the door of the palace quickly opened the door, and a cold whooshing breath hit his face, making the emperor shiver.
Stepping out, he happened to see Liu Mingqi and Zhao Shou chatting and talking with smiles.
"Oh, the weather is so good today!" The emperor stretched and said calmly: "I drank too much last night. It seems that people should not be greedy!"
Liu Mingqi glanced at him, and the smile disappeared from the corner of his mouth.
"You drink too much, but you have two dark circles under your eyes, Your Majesty!"
But he didn¡¯t dare to ask face to face, otherwise he would be dragged out and beaten up.
Liu Mingqi coughed lightly and said, "Your Majesty, I came to disturb you today because I really have something important to report."
"Don't panic yet." Emperor Jing He sat down in the pavilion next to him, "Have you brought your sulfa powder? I promised to give it to them today."
"I just handed it over to Eunuch Zhao." Liu Mingqi followed him, "Actually, what I'm talking to you about is related to sulfa powder."
"Say it!" The emperor happened to take a cup of eight-treasure tea from the eunuch next to him and said while drinking it.
"This morning, Jin Chenbai from Qiyan Heerda Subu came to see Xiaochen. He wanted to buy two thousand copies of sulfa powder."
"Um?"
Emperor Jinghe frowned and put down his tea cup, "Humph, where did he get the money? Two thousand copies? Even if Shi Wei buys it, he will have to break his muscles and bones, right?"
Shiwei owns the entire northeastern region, where there are endless treasures - ginseng, Polygonatum sibiricum, Polygonum multiflorum, deer antlers, Siberian tigers, black bears, roe deer, forest frogs, ash, hickory woodetc., endless supply. In exchange for them, they received a variety of resources and an incredible amount of money.
These precious delicacies and various products from the Northeast have always had loyal fans in Jiangnan and Gyeonggi, and a lot of them are consumed every year.
"If it weren't for Dakang, who also has top products such as porcelain, silk, and tea, I'm afraid they would have wiped out all the money long ago.
But even so, it is unrealistic for them to spend two million taels of silver to buy sulfa powder.
Liu Mingqi smiled and said: "Actually, the quotation I gave him yesterday was 2,000 taels per unit."
Emperor Jinghe almost spit out a mouthful of tea: "What did you say?"
"Jin Chenbai is the lowest, the last?On the contrary, it is not good, and he will not expose the emperor's pride.
"But I don't intend to make them feel better." Liu Mingqi smiled, "When the cows I bought arrive, I will publicize the fact that they bought a thousand copies of sulfa powder Then if Shi Wei wants some , I¡¯m afraid it¡¯s hard for them to refuse, right?¡±
"good idea!"
Emperor Jinghe had no burden whatsoever for harming these foreigners.
After all, during the New Year's banquet yesterday, Yelu Feiyang and others forced the palace in front of everyone, which really pissed him off.
"Did Governor Gao also ambush people in Shiwei? Let them instigate and provoke." Liu Mingqi continued to suggest, "Yelu Feiyang may understand the overall situation, but those stupid nobles don't. As soon as they hear that they are together, Erda Subu has a thousand servings of sulfa powder, how can you still bear it?"
"Haha! That's right!!"
Emperor Jinghe laughed happily, but then he said "ouch" and held his waist.
