The emperor was still not at ease, and summoned Fu Yuanling into the palace to inquire carefully.

Fu Yuanling was very surprised, he didn't expect His Majesty to pay so much attention to the follow-up situation in the western suburbs, and only then said after a pause: "Daughter-in-law, there is no way, there is still no money to make trouble." Not to mention the many workshops that will be expanded in the future, but the craftsmen who are about to be recruited will be settled, and the monthly salary is a big expense. Although it is a bit unkind to borrow cow milk, the daughter-in-law exempts them from rent for five years, although it is a little compensated, in fact, the merchant still has some losses. ”

The emperor looked at Fu Yuanling, "Loss? Will you trade at a loss? ”

Fu Yuanling was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Father, such a big industry as the western suburbs is built from brick by brick, and it costs a lot of money, not to mention that the daughter-in-law does not have such ability, even if the merchants in Shangjing empty their families, they can't build it." ”

The emperor looked at his daughter-in-law with a complicated expression, "So there was no matter of Xilinguan in the first place, and you are afraid that you will also be a white wolf with empty gloves?" ”

"It's mutually beneficial, everyone takes what they need. It's just that the national disaster is at hand, and everyone's patriotic heart is gushing, and the daughter-in-law takes advantage of the situation to borrow the east wind. Speaking of this, Fu Yuanling said faintly, "The daughter-in-law got the silver in her hand, but the real money entered the household and went to Xilinguan." ”

Emperor:......

Okay, it's not the first time I've been picking wool anyway, and I'm suddenly a little used to it.

"Then what are your ideas this time, tell me the truth." The Emperor asked with a straight face.

Fu Yuanling looked at the emperor with a frank expression, "The daughter-in-law doesn't want to have a second crisis of making a situation, this is the most fundamental idea in the daughter-in-law's heart." ”

"The second contrived bureau?" The emperor glanced at Fu Yuanling again, "You dare to say and do, and those merchants are also messing around with you?" ”

"Father, this is not nonsense. Daqian has gone through two wars in just a few years, and he urgently needs to recuperate and recuperate, and we merchants also need to recover the capital of the silver invested. Such a big place in the western suburbs will inevitably stand shoulder to shoulder with the Bureau of Creation in the future and become the second money bag of Daqian. If this place becomes owned by merchants, what is the difference between this and the original creation bureau being held in the palm of the palm of King Rong's mansion? You trust your daughter-in-law and hand over the western suburbs to me for disposal, and your daughter-in-law cannot live up to her father's trust and expectations, and must not leave troubles for the imperial court. ”

Therefore, this is Fu Yuanling's surrender of the western suburbs, and later he gave her ten years of power, and she made such a big move, in the final analysis, for the sake of him, the emperor, and for the sake of the country.

It's a pity, this daughter-in-law would be his son.

This kind of mind, means and vision, succumbing to a woman's body, is wronged in the end.

"Ten years from now?" The emperor looked at Fu Yuanling and asked.

Fu Yuanling smiled embarrassedly, "That daughter-in-law is cheeky to ask you for a reward, this first batch of merchants who follow the daughter-in-law to open up the wasteland, I hope my father can give some shelter." ”

The emperor looked at Fu Yuanling's embarrassed smile and chuckled, "You don't want to ask for something for yourself?" ”

"You gave your daughter-in-law ten years, and that's enough." Fu Yuanling knew that he would accept it when he saw it, and the emperor might not really give it to you when he asked you.

"You're content." The Emperor sighed, "What reward do you want to ask them for?" ”

"The merchants have contributed money and efforts to build shops but they are not their own, if the officials sent by the imperial court in the future are honest and honest, it is fine, if someone engages in favoritism, these merchants are afraid that they will suffer. The daughter-in-law wanted to ask her father to give them a talisman, and under the same conditions of renting the shop, they had the right to renew the lease of the shop. ”

This condition is really not a big deal, the emperor didn't expect Fu Yuanling to only ask for this, and happily agreed.

The emperor smiled, looked at Fu Yuanling and said, "If Xiao Jiu can manage the Creation Bureau well, I plan to hand it over to him in the western suburbs in ten years." ”

Fu Yuanling: ......

I don't want to.

Isn't this to repeat the old path of the Rongwang Mansion?

I always felt like I had a big knife hanging over my head.

But looking at the emperor's meaning, it seems that he is serious, and Fu Yuanling's heart is heavy.

Right now, this is naturally a good thing, if Xiao Jiuqi can hold the Bureau of Creation and the Western Suburbs Workshop in his hands, then Xiao Ting can't toss it in Que Zhou Xingang, he can't toss it here.

But in the long run, it is not a good thing, but it can be stepped down in the future.

Xiao Jiuqi really didn't do it, could His Majesty still be able to force it?

Fu Yuanling thought so in his heart, but he said with a little embarrassment on his face, "I'm afraid the prince won't agree, you know his temperament, a pretentious game has to go next, plus a western suburbs, I'm afraid I will turn his face." ”

The emperor was also happy when he thought about it, looked at Fu Yuanling and said, "It's okay, I have my own way." ”

Xiao Jiu is his son, can he not understand?

As far as Xiaojiu's daughter-in-law's property is in the western suburbs, can he watch and let others interfere?

That's impossible.

Fu Yuanling came out of the imperial study, and went to Fengyi Palace to greet the queen's mother, this time he was in a hurry to enter the palace, so he didn't bring the child.

Seeing the queen, the queen looked at her with some concern, "Your Majesty suddenly summoned you into the palace, for what?" ”

As soon as Fu Yuanling told the matter, the queen didn't know what to say for a while, and it took a long time to say: "This stall in the western suburbs is getting bigger and bigger." ”

"Yes, when the queen mother has time, I will go and see, and when we build a water row along the lake around the city, it will look much more majestic." Fu Yuanling said with a smile.

"The queen mother will go and see it when she has time, and it is said that she has taken on a name in the Human Craftsman Association, and she must go to see it."

"When the spring is warm, the queen mother will go out of the palace again, it's still too cold now, even if you go to see the withered grass, there's nothing to see. When spring begins, let's clean it up over there. Fu Yuanling said softly, "The southwest of the two major workshops is still a barren grass lake. ”

The queen was amused, "Then you have to take care of it, and when the time comes, I will ask Your Majesty to go with you and give you a strong reputation." ”

"There, the daughter-in-law thanked the queen mother first." Fu Yuanling didn't smile, if the emperor could go around, it would naturally be the best.

"If you don't have anything else, you can go back quickly, there are still two children in the house." The queen said.

Fu Yuanling nodded, "This time the father and emperor are in a hurry, and the daughter-in-law didn't have time to bring the child, so I will bring it in next time to ask the queen mother for peace." ”

"There's no hurry, you can go."

Fu Yuan ordered the luggage to be returned.

As soon as Fu Yuanling left, the queen looked at Shu He and said: "Look, this is an idle person, other people's daughters-in-law drink tea at home and enjoy the flowers, our family is really hard." ”

It's all for Xiao Jiu and King Chu, although the queen is the mother of a country, but outside the palace she can't go if she wants to.

"This is the blessing of the prince, how many people saw the joke at the beginning, and now as His Majesty values the princess, how many people are envious." Shu He said with a smile.
