Chapter 398 I'll Let Them Lose More Than Just Stealing a Chicken
Chapter 398 I'll Let Them Lose More Than Just Stealing a Chicken
Qiao Ye could understand what Lu Shao meant.
She curled her lips and said, "Answer it!"
"I have the support of the Fifth Prince and Song Shaoyang."
"If I don't go and make a scene, it would be too unfair to their calculations."
Lu Shao approached her and asked, "Madam, do you want to go directly to my house to make trouble?"
Qiao Ye reached out and pinched his handsome face, "Smart."
"The Seventh Prince is back. The Emperor should be very happy these days."
"I'll take this opportunity to make trouble."
She chuckled again, "If someone reports me, or goes to the emperor to stir up trouble."
"I will throw out the thresher and tiller I am offering."
"Let them stare blankly and piss them off to death."
I had originally planned to donate a thresher two days ago.
But there were some rumors outside that were unfavorable to the emperor, the court, and her brother.
The young master received news that the seventh prince would bring back a batch of rubber-soled leather shoes.
At that time, the emperor will have people send it to the border for the soldiers to wear, to dispel the rumor first.
She was thinking of waiting until the emperor was very pleased and making him even happier.
The emperor was in a good mood and happy, so his reward to her would naturally not be bad.
It's a good time for her to make trouble now.
Those traitors wanted to take advantage of her and were fanning the flames and slandering her everywhere.
If she didn't dislike playing by the rules, she wouldn't have taken the initiative to look for Hu Xueyi and the others.
She was afraid that the other party would really throw dirty water on her and let Hu Xueyi take the initiative to tear her apart.
If she just let it go, the other party would probably take advantage of her even more.
Humph, I originally wanted to keep a low profile.
Since the other party doesn't allow her to keep a low profile, she will just help them to show off their talents.
And it is impossible for the Fifth Prince and Song Shaoyang to simply use her.
She would drag them down no matter what.
Lu Shao laughed out loud, "As expected of my brave and resourceful wife, she is always so unexpected."
Not to mention the traitors in the theater, even the Fifth Prince and others probably didn't expect that his young wife would choose to make trouble directly.
Qiao Ye raised his chin and said with a little bit of a smug smile: "That's right."
She snorted again in a proud tone, "Not only am I going to make trouble, I'm also going to steal their business openly."
"I just want to take this opportunity to let everyone know that I don't get along with them."
"They were the ones who provoked me when they stole my business, but I didn't deliberately pick a fight so that no one could say it was my fault."
"I'll let them lose more than they gain."
Lu Shao hugged Qiao Ye, his eyes full of smiles, "I support my wife."
On the same day, in the palace.
The emperor arranged for the ministers of the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War to send the rubber-soled leather shoes brought back by the seventh prince to the border.
Let the news be released first.
The emperor sympathized with the soldiers on the border, so he specially asked the crown prince and the seventh prince to make rubber-soled leather shoes and send them to the border as military supplies.
It also preached the benefits of rubber-soled leather boots and how expensive they are now.
Nowadays, ministers in the court are proud to wear rubber-soled leather shoes.
There were a few people who had a good relationship with the emperor and had a rather rogue temperament. They would often go to the palace to ask the emperor for rubber-soled leather shoes.
So the emperor had the rubber-soled leather shoes, which even the ministers were vying for, sent to the soldiers at the border.
This shows that the emperor did not treat his soldiers as unhuman beings, not denying them enough food and clothing, but instead treated them very well.
This batch of rubber-soled leather shoes was made and brought back by the Seventh Prince from Qiongzhou.
Guayule is planted on several large estates in the Royal Court, but has not yet been harvested.
The rubber used now mainly comes from rubber trees in Qiongzhou.
In addition to the rubber estates acquired by the royal family, the Crown Prince and the Seventh Prince also bought many places with rubber trees.
This time, the rubber-soled leather shoes were presented by the Crown Prince and the Seventh Prince to relieve the Emperor's worries.
Once the rubber-soled leather shoes came out, they dispelled the rumors that the emperor and the court were mistreating the border soldiers.
Therefore, after the two ministers left.
The emperor looked at the seventh prince with loving eyes, "You have worked hard recently."
The seventh prince sat on the chair at the bottom, crossing his legs.
He smiled carelessly and said, "It is an honor for me to share my father's worries. It is not hard at all."
"Besides, these rubber soles were made under the supervision of my brother, and I am just a porter."
"If you want a reward, give it to my brother."
The emperor smiled and said, "The things that the prince did in Qiongzhou were very good. I remember them."
His son has been too protective of his brother since he was young, which sometimes makes him feel jealous.
However, the deep love between brothers and the innocent heart of his son are rare and precious, which he is very happy to see.
The Seventh Prince stopped there and said with a smile, "And Qiao Ye's contribution, father, don't forget it."
He now has a very close relationship with Lu Shao, and he also admires Qiao Ye very much, and she has also helped them a lot.
So when he can take credit for her work, he will definitely not forget it.
The emperor smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will never forget Qiao Ye's contribution."
"Not only Qiao Ye, Qiao Yu is also my lucky general."
Good news came one after another from the border.
Of the cities that were captured by the enemy country in the previous dynasty, only the last one is left to be recovered.
This is an achievement of his reign that will be written into history books.
Qiao Yu was not only brave, but also very wise and capable of governance.
It is not only useful to recover the cities lost by the previous dynasty, but also to provide governance policies for recovering the cities.
He arranged the Flying Dragon Guards at the border, so nothing that happened there escaped his eyes.
Because Qiao Ye was known as the lucky star, as she did more and more things, the emperor became more and more convinced that she was really a lucky star.
And her brother was so capable, so naturally he would be the deputy general.
The Seventh Prince smiled and said, "Qiao Yu is indeed amazing."
Then he said with a yearning and lofty ambition: "If my father had not forbidden me to go to the border, I would also like to follow Qiao Yu to fight on the battlefield and recapture the city of Dayin."
He has a strong admiration for the strong. Although he has never had much contact with Qiao Yu, he admires and respects this person very much.
The Qiao brothers and sisters are all great.
The emperor said unhappily, "With your temper, you'd better not go to the border to cause trouble for Qiao Yu."
"I'd like to find an opportunity to summon Qiao Ye to the palace to meet him."
He has wanted to meet Qiao Ye for a long time.
It’s just that there have been a lot of things going on in the court recently, especially the trouble caused by the rebels, so it has been delayed.
Now they are sending the rubber-soled leather shoes to the border, which were made by Qiao Ye and presented to the court.
He could use this reason to summon Qiao Ye with justification.
The Seventh Prince nodded, "Father, you can indeed meet Qiao Ye and talk to her more. You may get something unexpected."
Seeing his son praise Qiao Ye so much, the emperor became even more curious about her. "Okay, I will summon her in a few days."
Because of the seventh prince's words, Qiao Ye gained more presence and favor from the emperor.
After talking for a while, the emperor had to go back to work, so the seventh prince left.
After leaving the palace, he asked someone to deliver a message to Lu Shao.
In the evening at Louwailou, he was going to entertain Lu Shao and his wife for dinner, and also invited Jiang Yilin.
He planned to reveal the fact that the emperor was going to summon Qiao Ye in advance so that she could be prepared.
Lu Shao asked his confidant to pass the message to Qiao Ye.
He went there after finishing school, while Qiao Ye went there with Jiang Yilin.
When Qiao Ye received the news, she thought that the Seventh Prince would not host a banquet today, so she was originally planning to look for him.
What a coincidence.
As the agreed time approached, Jiang Yilin and Qiao Ye got off the carriage and went to Louwailou together.
As soon as I reached the door, I met Song Shaoyang and two young men who were coming from the other side and also wanted to enter Louwailou.
After seeing Qiao Ye, Song Shaoyang's eyes lit up instantly.
He took the initiative to look at Qiao Ye and greeted her, "Miss Qiao, long time no see, I hope you are well!"
