Originally, she just wanted to be incognito, have a manor, have 100 acres of land, and live a simple life free and free of food and clothing, and did not want to expand the scale of business.
Now everything has changed, she has become an open princess, she has to walk around with the royal family from time to time, she doesn't want to touch the royal light, she makes a fortune by the emperor's favor, she wants to rely on her own ability, and have a certain strength in the economy.
By donating grain to the emperor and donating silver in disguise, she bought back the emperor's rewarded farmhouse, because as far as she knew, the royal dignitaries' granges did not need to pay taxes and grain to the imperial court, and after nearly a year of counterinsurgency war, the treasury's money and grain were greatly reduced, she was adamant to refuse the emperor's farm reward, and repeatedly said that her manor was very rich, but the emperor insisted on rewarding, and when she accepted it, she thought about it, and handed over or donated half of the output of the rewarded grange to the emperor's treasury every year.
This is similar to renting the emperor's land, the donated rights should be rented, and the yield grown with her seeds should be the highest rent paid by the Great Wu Dynasty.
Xiao Yao asked Steward Liu to pay attention to cultivating two people to be the stewards of the two granges among the five Zhuang Ding, because Zhuang Ding is illiterate and can't keep accounts, she is going to invite each of them to have a talent who can keep accounts, and the key is that these two people must be loyal and capable and not ostentatious.
Steward Liu is the chief steward of the three granges, and from time to time he has to go to each village to inspect and supervise the work, for this reason, Xiao Yao specially equipped the steward with a special carriage, and the salary has also doubled.
Xiao Yao specially gave the housekeeper three chapters: First, she is not the emperor's own sister, and she is not a genuine princess, so try not to say her identity when acting outside.
Second, be polite in case of trouble, never bully others, and never forgive anyone if you violate this precept.
Third, it is necessary to treat peasant households well, and when encountering families and elderly people who are in real difficulty, we must provide assistance to them, and do a good job in our relations with peasant households.
Xiao Yao asked Steward Liu to convey her covenant to the people below that she was afraid that the subordinates would rely on her princess and do evil outside, which was what she hated the most in her previous life and this life.
She sent a letter to Qiusheng in the capital and told him that she wanted to open a restaurant, and asked him to start selecting a site in the capital.
He is solely responsible for everything.
After arranging the big event, Xiao Yao always felt that there was something else that she couldn't let go, and it wasn't until she chatted with Xiao Cui in the evening, Xiao Cui mentioned that the New Year was over, and Young Master Yun hadn't come back yet, that she suddenly realized that she was worried about it.
Before leaving the palace, Xiao Yao specifically asked the emperor when Zhao Ruiyun would come back?
I remember that the emperor said that he could rush back before the fifteenth day of the first month at the latest, but now it is the twenty-fifth day of the first month, and there is not even any news, isn't it to quell the rebels and return to the dynasty in triumph?
It's been more than a month since I walked, and I should have come back a long time ago, could it be that something unexpected happened on the way?
Xiao Yao still has feelings for Zhao Ruiyun, although he is only one day older than herself, she loves and takes care of herself everywhere, and she really loves him as a brother in her heart.
She discussed with Xiao Cuiyi and decided to go to the capital early tomorrow morning to ask the emperor's brother about the situation.
Before dawn the next day, Xiaocui quietly got up, asked the kitchen to prepare breakfast for Miss and her in advance, and woke up Xing'er and Xiaoying to take a bamboo basket to the greenhouse to pick three blue fresh vegetables.
Now is the time when the vegetables are green and yellow, these three baskets of vegetables can not be bought for any amount of money, Xiaocui heard that the young lady said that the fresh vegetables they sent during the New Year added great glory to the emperor's banquet, and the emperor wrote a letter to praise it.
She and the young lady felt that there was nothing to take from the emperor, so they discussed simply taking three baskets of vegetables, one basket for the emperor, one basket for the queen, and one basket for Qiu Ju and Xia He.
Xiao Yao also asked Xiaocui to prepare four hundred taels of silver, and gave Qiu Ju and Xia He two hundred taels each, it is not easy for them to be in the palace, their mother's family is a poor family, although they followed them and also sealed the small official and rewarded the field house, it will be enough for the family to use for themselves, where is the money for the two of them?
The eunuchs and maids in the palace are the most powerful and greedy for money, and the concubines who have no money, no power and are not favored by the emperor, sometimes they are not alive and happy without the big eunuchs and the palace stewards.
Xiao Yao and Xiaocui lived in Jufu Palace for seven or eight days, feeling that Qiu Ju Xia He was extraordinarily angry, when they left the palace, they were so reluctant to shed tears, Xiao Yao felt very sad, she regretted helping them enter the palace to marry the emperor, and now she can't help them at all, so she can only give them some silver, so that they can be more generous in the palace and not be bullied by other concubines and subordinates.
Xiao Yao got up earlier than ever, Xiao Cui asked Steward Liu to prepare the car, and as soon as she entered the door, she saw that the young lady had already freshened up and was ready to have breakfast.
She quickly cleaned her hands and sat down to eat with the young lady.
While reporting to the young lady, everything is ready.
As soon as the two of them had eaten a few bites of food, they saw Yingzi running in a panic and said, "Miss Qiuyue is here, and she is crying with many people and begging to see Miss." ” Xiao Yao said, "Tell her to come in quickly."
While standing up and leaving the dining table and walking out, he complained in his heart: This autumn moon, when will I ask her to see me and report to me to ask for a meeting?
Wouldn't it be the end of just coming in?
What's going on?
Why are you still crying?
As soon as she walked to the door, Qiu Yue had already run over with red eyes, and she didn't care about saluting, so she said to Xiao Yao: "Miss, the emperor asked me to bring someone to pick you up, and the second young master of my family also asked me to invite you to meet him, he is very sick, I am afraid that he will not live long."
Woowoo" "What?
When did your second young master come back?
What disease do you have?
Don't cry, make it clear to me.
Xiao Yao said in surprise Xiao Cui hurriedly handed over a handkerchief to Qiu Yue to wipe her tears, and Xiao Yao took her hand into the door and asked her to sit down.
Qiu Yue stabilized her mood for a while, choked up and said: "The second young master came back last night, and the emperor has already let the imperial doctor see it, saying that he has been poisoned, and there is no antidote, and the imperial doctors are trying to find a way to detoxify it." ” Xiao Yao immediately asked Xiao Cui to take the master's medical book, medicine box and his own medicine box, put on his coat and went out, explained a few words to Steward Liu who sent him to the gate, and left in the car.
Hurried all the way to the mansion of the sixth old prince, Xiao Yao asked Qiu Yue and Zhao Ruiyun to send someone to pick him up and take him directly to Zhao Ruiyun's bedroom, she had been looking for a way to detoxify in the master's book on the way, she wanted to quickly see what kind of poison Zhao Ruiyun had been in.
Zhao Ruiyun's house was crowded with people inside and outside, the old prince and his wife, the eldest young master and his wife and the imperial doctor in the palace, the maid and so on were all in the house, Xiao Yao's arrival made the house even more crowded, she hurriedly gave the prince and his wife and the eldest young master and his wife in the house under the introduction of Qiu Yue, and came to Zhao Ruiyun's bed without the slightest hesitation, Zhao Ruiyun struggled to sit up, Xiao Yao held it down, and said to him: "Second brother, don't move, my sister is not an outsider, you need to treat the disease now." ” The three imperial doctors hurriedly came over to salute Xiao Yao, saying that the emperor ordered them to listen to Princess Huayang in everything.
Xiao Yao secretly screamed ashamed in his heart.
Hurriedly asked them about Zhao Ruiyun's condition.
One of the eldest of the three said: "The general's illness is like headache and dizziness, abdominal pain and nausea, and he has diarrhea symptoms this morning, sweating a lot and feeling weak.
When we checked the pulse, we felt that the pulse was very unstable, fast and slow. ” Xiao Yao asked again: "What do you think is the disease?"

What medicines are available?
Do you have a life to worry about now?
” The elder imperial physician said: "We see that the general seems to have been poisoned, but we haven't figured out what kind of poison it is, and we have used licorice and rhino horn for the general to detoxify, although the effect is not obvious."
There is no fear of life for the time being, but the disease is progressing rapidly, and we dare not guarantee it.
Please also ask the princess for advice. ” Xiao Yao read the master's book in the car just now, and knew that the most effective and commonly used detoxification in traditional Chinese medicine is raw licorice, dried ginger, rhino horn and the like.
She nodded and said, "You're using it well." ” He turned around and saluted the prince and his wife: "Lord, Xiao Yao has a request, Xiao Yao doesn't like to have someone next to him, can you move to another place and let Xiao Yao calm down and diagnose the disease." ” The prince was bent on saving his son's life, and last night the emperor and Qiu Yue praised Xiao Yao as a miracle doctor who had nothing on earth and was unparalleled in the sky, if it weren't for his sick son who insisted on refusing to disturb his sister-in-law in the middle of the night, he couldn't wait to invite Xiao Yao last night, how could he not agree to Xiao Yao's request now?
Immediately went out with a group of people.
Xiao Yao only left Xiao Cui and Qiu Yue.
She sat down in front of Zhao Ruiyun, looking at the sunburned and haggard face in front of her, her heart was sour, and she asked softly: "Second brother, do you have the strength to speak?"
Can you tell me about the before and after poisoning?
” Zhao Ruiyun looked at Xiao Yao, smiled softly, and whispered, "Sister, it's good to see you again!"
You haven't changed at all, but I'm black and ugly!
I was afraid that you wouldn't recognize me when you came in just now, and I thought it was a wild boy from somewhere. ” Xiao Yao didn't expect him to have the heart to joke, his eyes were red and he said: "Second brother, don't laugh, my sister is in a hurry to treat you now, can you tell me when you got sick?"
What did you eat that day?
What was used?
What happened out of the ordinary?
” Zhao Ruiyun put away his smile, fumbled and took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, and handed it to Xiao Yao, Xiao Yao opened it and saw that it was a branch with three leaves, and when she saw the three leaves clearly, her face changed greatly.
That's the oleander leaves, grandpa's yard planted three oleanders with different colors of flowers, she is very familiar with this plant, since she was a child she was told that the branches and leaves of oleander are highly poisonous, can not be touched, remember she also asked grandpa, why do you grow poisonous things at home?
Grandpa told her that although this oleander can harm people, it can also save people, it is a kind of Chinese medicinal material, and this flower is planted in the yard, which is not only beautiful but also can repel mosquitoes, as long as it is not eaten by mistake and touched by its poisonous juice, there is no harm to people.
She immediately asked, "Second brother, where did you get this thing?"
Do you know what this is?
How did you fall for this poison?
” Zhao Ruiyun listened to Xiao Yao's tone, and seemed to know what this thing was, and also confirmed his guess that he thought this thing was poisonous, and he was poisoned by this thing.
My heart became heavy.
He said quietly: "I don't know what this thing is, I just asked my soldiers to search everywhere when I was sick, and found that there was this thing in a man's house that no one had ever seen, and the man killed himself by wiping his neck when he heard about the search."
So I suspect there's something wrong with this thing," and after speaking, he smiled at Xiao Yao.
