Fu Yuanling nodded lightly, "If the prince is not in Shangjing, this is not easy to do." ”

Except for Xiao Jiuqi, no one in Shangjing dared to break into the Rongwang Mansion.

Even if the emperor is hindered by his reputation, he has to provide for the Rongwang Mansion well, and he can't be singled out.

So, it's a stalemate now.

"How's it going over there?"

"I took out a batch of account books, but this batch of account books looked like they were deliberately taken out to fool people." Yuan Li sneered, the other party had already prepared, it was really tricky.

Fu Yuanling sighed, "I can't be in a hurry now, I can only figure it out slowly, so how about the ore?" ”

"The imperial court is now allocating one-third of the share of the mines in various places to the smelting workshop, and the Bureau of Creation does not agree, but Ji Xiang and the others take the ordnance of the smelting workshop to negotiate with them, and they are reluctantly relieved."

"That's all we have to do for now." As long as there is ore that can be brought in, the smelting workshop will be up and running.

She can't do more in confinement now, and now she has reached a delicate balance, and if she wants to break this balance, it depends on which side is more prepared to act.

At least not on the smelter's side yet.

It's not easy to take a bite of meat from the Crafting Bureau, and the others can only wait for the right time.

Fu Yuanling actually already had an idea in her heart, but now she is not in a good condition to go out, so she can only wait until she is out of confinement.

The Bureau of Creation has long hated the smelting workshop, and it can't be picky in the egg, and it has been staring at the smelting workshop recently, and it wants to find a mistake to rectify it.

It's like the Creation Bureau has the protection of the Holy Ancestor's holy decree, and the smelting workshop also has the protection of the current saint, so the Creation Bureau is also a rat trap.

There are constant small movements in private, but there is peace on the face.

Qi Ruozhong is now staring at the smelting workshop all day long, for fear that he will be taken advantage of by the Fabrication Bureau.

Yuan Li took over the other affairs in Qi Ruozhong's hands, and Yuan Zhi and Yuan Xin also rotated like spinning tops.

Fortunately, the brocade workshop is not operated by the Fu family but leased out, which saves a lot of effort, otherwise even if there is a few help from Zhuang Xinrong, I am afraid that I will not be able to get busy.

Fu Yuanling's confinement has not yet been completed, and the battle report was sent to Xilinguan, after the king of Chu arrived at Xilinguan, he took over the affairs in Xiao Jiuqi's hands, but he didn't expect that just two days after arriving in Xilinguan, the northern Xinjiang attacked the city.

This battle is menacing, presumably the northern Xinjiang side also does not want to continue to consume, and wants a quick victory.

No one expected that Xiao Jiuqi, who was recuperating in the rear, secretly took more than 1,000 people out of the city with his injuries and disappeared without a trace.

When the king of Chu got the news, he was naturally anxious, and he couldn't wait to bring Xiao Jiuqi back and beat him, but the northern frontier was quite a battle to determine the outcome of the war, and the king of Chu really couldn't send people to pick up Xiao Jiuqi and others.

Fu Ren from the Northwest Racecourse got the news, and Zhang Xin, who was staring at the people from Mei Chengchuan's side, discussed it, and Zhang Xin combined the manpower of the racecourse, and borrowed people from the Wei Family Racecourse, and reluctantly gathered more than 300 people to find King Jin and others.

Zhang Xin was born in the Dragon Guard, and he was good at tracking, and soon found some traces and led people to chase him all the way.

Although the people who came out of the horse farm were not soldiers, they were with horses all day long, and their riding skills were excellent, and they didn't find it difficult to chase people.

There was no news for several days, and the king of Chu was worried, so he could only send a letter to the court while dispatching people to find Xiao Jiuqi, and he was going to be beaten if he found it back.

The queen was naturally worried when she got the news, and she was afraid that Fu Yuanling would know that she would not be able to do a good job in confinement, so she would block the news and not send a letter to the palace, but she couldn't stand that the Fu family had its own sources, and Fu Yuanling still knew.

With such a big movement in Fu Ren's racecourse, he naturally wanted to inform Fu Yuanling, so Fu Yuanling got the news.

"Princess, are you alright?" Yuan Li was worried about dying, for fear that the princess would feel uncomfortable and suffer herself if she didn't speak out.

Fu Yuanling folded the letter in his hand and put it away, and looked up at Yuan Li, "I'm fine, Uncle Ren is doing a good job." ”

Fu Yuanling has never been a person who acts rashly, even if he is worried, he knows that he can't save the fire from far water now, and it is useless to die in a hurry.

Others only think that Xiao Jiuqi made an impulsive decision, but she knows that although Xiao Jiuqi is sometimes impulsive, how can such a big thing be so reckless.

It must be that Xiao Jiuqi found something to take advantage of, otherwise he would not have dragged the sick body out of the city.

She can't do anything, she can only take care of her body and wait until she is out of confinement.

Aunt Song found that the amount of the princess's food did not decrease but increased, and she breathed a sigh of relief, and made the food more and more colorful, flavorful.

Mama You and Mama Shen were also frightened for a few days, and found that the princess paid more attention to cultivation than before, and even reduced the time to take care of Xiao Shizi every day, most of them were when they were sleeping, and they couldn't say whether they were relieved or more worried.

The tighter the battle at the border pass, the more frequent the battle reports, the two armies have their own victories and defeats, and the emperor has twice mobilized the soldiers and horses around the west pass to support.

Xiao Jiuqi still has no news, like a stone sinking into the sea.

No news is good news, isn't it?

On the day when Fu Yuanling came out of confinement, she bathed carefully from the inside to the outside, looking at the white and chubby son who was eating, the little doll in swaddling clothes didn't know the suffering of the world, and she smiled very cheerfully when she saw her mother, and she didn't know what she was talking about.

Fu Yuanling lowered her head and kissed her son's little face, she didn't hug her son, she just looked at Mama You and said with a smile: "I promised the queen mother earlier, when the child is full moon, I will take it to the palace to show my father and queen mother." I still have to go to the workshop to inspect, and Mama Lao will take the little prince into the palace. ”

Mama You couldn't help but feel distressed and said, "Why is the princess in a hurry, it doesn't hurt to slow down the affairs of the workshop." ”

Fu Yuanling smiled, "There are frequent wars, there is too much damage to the ordnance and it needs to be replenished in time, a group of wine bags and rice bags over there in the Creation Bureau, even if the smelting workshop rushes to work overnight, it is powerless due to the scale limitations." I have to go and see it in person, and my grandmother told me to confess to my mother, and when I have time in a few days, I will go into the palace to make amends to my mother. ”

Where can Mama You say badly, so she wrapped Xiao Shizi tightly, and then got into the carriage to enter the palace.

Fu Yuanling sent the people away and looked at Pear Blossom, "Two hours later, you will send this letter to the Chu Palace, and ask the Princess of Chu to hand it over to the Queen Mother." ”

Pear Blossom hurriedly took it, and her heart became more and more worried, "Princess......"

Fu Yuanling looked at her, "After I leave the city, you will have to worry about the affairs of the palace." ”

"Princess!" Pear Blossom was so frightened that her feet were weak, and she felt that something was wrong with the princess these days, and even Mama You and Xiao Shizi were sent to the palace by her, and sure enough, the premonition was fulfilled.
