Chapter 406: Awesome
"This is a good opportunity, the timing is right. If you had exposed this matter before, it wouldn't have had such an effect."
Jiang Youzhen picked up the tea bowl. She believed that the Fourth Prince would not refuse, because as long as he wanted to ascend to the throne, he would not give up such an opportunity.
"I know that His Highness is currently in charge of the Ministry of Revenue's mission to deliver grain and fodder to the border. We won't discuss what's wrong with it and whether he knows about it or not. But if you want to make a big fuss about it, shock the court and the country, and make the emperor investigate the case strictly, then it depends on whether His Highness is willing to do so."
Jiang Youzhen stopped there, and believed that the Fourth Prince and Tong Huaian would figure it out later.
"How do you know this? You mean to start with food and fodder? But His Highness thinks that food and fodder are the lifeblood of the soldiers at the border, so he will never touch them."
Tong Huaian felt that Jiang Youzhen in front of him was too unfamiliar. Such scheming and strategy were simply too scary.
"If he doesn't move, what about the others? Can you guarantee that they won't move? It's up to you to decide. Food and fodder are too important. I don't believe that the people outside the Great Wall have been self-sufficient in food, clothing and daily expenses in the past few years. Isn't this a phenomenon that has existed since the previous dynasty? If we investigate it strictly, can we still find out something?"
Jiang Youzhen said it very easily, and at the same time he made a move.
"Oh! Brother Huai'an, you lost again. You lost three games in a row today."
"Why do you know so much?" Tong Huaian didn't care about the chess game at all. Jiang Youzhen had shocked him too much today.
"The court reports and history books are good things. Of course, I will read the reports and make analysis! It's a pity that I don't have anyone I can use."
Jiang Youzhen sighed as she spoke. She didn't know how many skills those boys and girls had learned now. She had to find time to go and take a look.
"You can tell all this just from the official newspaper?" Why is Tong Huaian so unconvinced?
"Of course, we have to find clues from it! We have to use our brain!" Jiang Youzhen pointed to her head. It's true, her brain is so good now that it doesn't even feel like her brain anymore.
A smart guy.
Tong Huaian was extremely shocked. He originally thought that Jiang Youzhen was powerful, but after all, he had not yet entered the court. But he did not expect that Jiang Youzhen was so well hidden and was even more powerful than he imagined.
"Why did you say it now? And why did you tell us? What about the Second Prince? I remember you also had a close relationship with him."
Tong Huaian suddenly thought of Qian Chongen as he spoke. Could it be that Jiang Youzhen told this matter because of Qian Chongen? Then was Qian Chongen's matter related to the prince?
But is this matter worth Jiang Youzhen making such a fuss? After all, he is not his mentor.
However, he then felt that Jiang Youzhen might really do so, and His Highness also said that she was loyal and righteous.
It seems that I have to investigate the prince when I return. If he is really related, then Jiang Youzhen is too terrible. He is simply vindictive!
"Haven't you heard that you can't put all your eggs in one basket? I approached Brother Huai'an because I'm familiar with him, and I'll definitely give you the benefits! Besides, with the Second Prince's ability, I'm afraid he won't be able to handle it." Jiang Youzhen shook his head.
Because the fourth prince is now working in the Ministry of Revenue, and the food and fodder allocated by the Ministry of Revenue is very important, and the second prince cannot interfere.
"I'll go back now, wait for my news!" Tong Huaian couldn't sit still anymore, he suddenly stood up and said goodbye.
"Don't forget to agree to my conditions!" Jiang Youzhen reminded.
"Don't worry! If you really give the Fourth Prince a great opportunity, he will definitely not go back on his word." Tong Huaian said and left without looking back.
Next, just wait and see the show, Jiang Youzhen sneered.
The days passed as usual. Apart from sending some medicinal materials to the Qian family from the Second Prince's place, Jiang Youzhen went to the same place every day.
"Teacher, I will take a day off tomorrow. It is early summer now, why not go to the farm to escape the heat and enjoy the lotus flowers."
Because the Shen couple couldn't sit still, Jiang Youzhen bought a small farm to keep them busy in the city.
After a long time, the couple got used to it. Especially now that Jiang Youzhen found a wine-making recipe that aroused the couple's interest, and there happened to be some fruit trees in the farm, they started to make wine in the farm.
It's early June and the weather is starting to get hot.
Jiang Youzhen was afraid of the heat, so he had bought a lot of ice and put it in the house. But ice was very expensive, selling for 500 coins per pound. When the weather got hotter, ice was even more expensive, and there was no demand for it.
Jiang Youzhen's idea is to dig a cellar in the farm and store ice cubes every year, so that he can use it for himself and make money.
"There are game, wine and food in the manor, and it is lively with many people."
Jiang Youzhen pushed Qian Chongen into the yard in a wooden wheelchair to cool off under the shade of a tree.
"Go! It's troublesome..."
"What's the big deal? They're all carriages anyway."
Jiang Youzhen knew that Qian Chongen was afraid of trouble her, so she accepted it.
Qian Chongen used all the spiritual spring water, and now he is much better. His face and mouth are no longer crooked, but he can still walk a few steps with the help of a high stool, but he needs someone to take care of him.
Qing Lang walked over quickly from a distance, "Master!"
He hesitated to speak, and Jiang Youzhen knew that he had something to report.
"You go and do your work, let Ru'er push me." Qian Chongen pointed at Qian Ru who was rushing over.
"Then I'll excuse myself for a moment."
"What's the matter?" Jiang Youzhen took Qinglang to the outer study.
"It's the Second Prince who has come down. He is waiting in the side hall of our house."
"The second prince?" Jiang Youzhen immediately understood that he was probably here for that matter.
It's almost time, should we close in on the Fourth Prince?
After going back to report to Qian Chongen, Jiang Youzhen hurried back to the house.
Qian Ru looked at Jiang Youzhen's leaving back, disappointment flashed in her eyes. Qian Chongen behind her couldn't help but sigh when he saw this.
How could she not understand her daughter's thoughts? But Jiang Youzhen was not an ordinary person. He would surely become very successful in the future.
Even though he had been able to bring it up before because of his status as a mentor, how could he have the nerve to bring it up now that he was in this state? If he brought it up, it would ruin Jiang Youzhen's future.
He couldn't suppress those evil spirits, which led to the current situation. If he really proposed it, Jiang Youzhen would agree out of consideration, but could she keep her position as the legal wife?
Things are different now, everything is just a delusion!
It seems that from today on, Madam has to take good care of her daughter and not let her get involved in this anymore.
When Jiang Youzhen returned to the house, Qingyan came to greet him.
"Master, the Second Prince looks very bad."
"Yes!" Jiang Youzhen nodded, "Please invite him into the outer study!"
As soon as he entered the outer study, Jiang Youzhen heard a sarcastic remark.
"Some people are really capable! They are not in the court, but they can stir up trouble in secret."
Qing Lang and Qing Yan quickly closed the door and stood a little further away.
"Your Highness, aren't you currently leading the construction of the dock? How come you have time to come to my place?"
Jiang Youzhen lifted the corner of his robe and then sat down gracefully.
"Qinglang, a distinguished guest has arrived. Why are you still being lazy and not serving tea?" Jiang Youzhen shouted softly.
Qing Lang made a bitter face and quickly went to prepare.
