Chapter 68 This is an earth dragon!
"Ah!"
Emperor Xuanwu sneered and didn't want to pay any attention to her at all.
He just didn't understand, who did this kid take his shamelessness from?
Emperor Xuanwu actually couldn't quite remember what kind of woman her mother, Concubine Lan, was.
But even if he was only one-tenth as shameless as this kid, I'm sure he would be very impressed.
Since she didn't take after Concubine Lan, then it couldn't be that she took after him, right?
Emperor Xuanwu thought shamelessly.
……
The bright yellow dragon chariot passed through most of the harem and finally stopped steadily outside Fengyang Palace.
Emperor Xuanwu was the first to step down from the dragon chariot and strode towards the main hall of Fengyang Palace.
He wanted to see what this shameless brat had come up with, to the point where he had the audacity to conclude that all the concubines in his harem would come to her for help!
He walked straight through the eunuchs and palace maids who were kneeling on the ground.
As soon as Emperor Xuanwu arrived at the gate of Fengyang Palace and before he even entered, he felt a warm wave of heat blowing towards him.
A strange color flashed in his eyes, and he took a few steps inside.
Sure enough, it got warmer.
Unlike the gradual change in temperature in his imperial study, the warmth in Fengyang Palace was like stepping directly from the cold winter into spring.
Every corner is equally warm.
The most important thing is that there is not even a pot of charcoal fire to be seen in this hall!
Emperor Xuanwu quickly thought of the messy ground in Fengyang Palace that had been dug up the last time he came here.
Did she lay the wall of fire underground?
But that’s not right either!
It is simply impossible to cover the ground of such a large Fengyang Palace with charcoal and keep it burning.
No wonder she was so confident that she could make money from the concubines.
Emperor Xuanwu secretly marveled in his heart, but still snorted:
"Is this the surprise you were talking about?"
"Father, this is called a ground dragon, or floor heating."
Yunshu introduced enthusiastically:
"Isn't the weather getting colder? I am also afraid of the cold, but each palace only has a small amount of silver frost charcoal. If I use it sparingly, it will still be cold. If I don't use it sparingly, I will have to use lower-quality charcoal later.
But inferior charcoal is quite choking when burned, so I thought of making this thing.
It does not require something as expensive as silver frost charcoal. Ordinary charcoal or dead branches picked up from anywhere can be put in. As long as it can be burned, it can be stuffed in.
Apart from spending a little money upfront, the results will be better and you can save a lot of money later on!"
"Ah."
Emperor Xuanwu nodded dignifiedly.
Yun Shu even paused and waited for a while, but he never got to express any opinion.
It is indeed an old fox!
Sighing silently in his heart, Yun Shu could only speak reluctantly:
"Father, do you want to also use this in your Ambergris Palace and Imperial Study?"
"how,"
Emperor Xuanwu glanced at her slowly:
"It's not enough that you've set your sights on my concubines, now you're trying to make money from me too?"
"How can you think like that? I can make money from anyone else, but not from you!"
Yun Shu quickly denied:
"Don't worry, Father. The money for laying the floor tiles in the Dragon's Semen Palace and the Imperial Study is my filial piety to you. I will cover it all!"
"Oh?"
Emperor Xuanwu was quite surprised. He turned his head curiously and looked Yunshu up and down:
"Aren't you short of money? Why are you so generous?"
"Respecting the emperor is what a son should do!"
After skillfully blasting out a dragon fart, Yun Shu changed the subject and smiled flatteringly at Emperor Xuanwu:
"But you, Father, also know that I have been introverted and low-key since I was young. I do not seek fame. I have never been the kind of person who wants to make everyone know about the little things I have done. So you see... can you not let others know that I am honoring you?"
"Reserved and low-key, not seeking fame."
After picking out these words and repeating them again, Emperor Xuanwu, who had already seen through Yun Shu's thoughts, curled the corner of his lip:
"Wouldn't it be better to announce to the public that I gave you money?"
"My son is timid!"
Yun Shu's little thoughts were seen through, so he simply didn't bother to hide them. He changed his route and started to play the victim:
"Father, you are in charge of the affairs of the country and have a lot of things to do every day. You definitely can't keep an eye on the movements of the harem all the time.
Ke Erchen is just an ordinary, weak and helpless little princess.
If I accidentally offend any of you, I will be worried all day and all night, unable to eat or sleep well..."
"okay!"
Emperor Xuanwu's mouth twitched. He knew she was acting, but he still broke through in a second. He pulled out a purse from his waist that was given by an unknown lady and threw it to Yun Shu:
"I gave money in the first place, so this is not considered a rumor."
Yun Shu: “…”
How much is this little rag bag worth?
She didn't even dare to sell the gifts given to the emperor by the imperial concubines.
Might as well just throw a coin at her!
At least it's a penny.
But if her cheap father insisted on this face, she would just give it to him!
Anyway, as long as the goal is achieved.
Yun Shu took the purse and stuffed it into his sleeve pocket with a smile, nodding his head quickly:
"That's right, my father did give me money, and it was quite a lot!"
Emperor Xuanwu: “.”
It seems like his concubines are going to be tricked a lot this time.
But it’s also good this way. Almost all of the concubines in his palace are from aristocratic families and have very strong family backgrounds.
Although he was in the harem, he still had a lot of money in his hands. He didn't know where he spent it.
But bribing the young eunuch in the palace today and bribing the young palace maid tomorrow must cost money.
The more money is spent like this, the more things will happen in the harem.
Just let Xiaowu do it!
How many people he can cheat depends entirely on his ability. If he can trick all those who are most likely to cause trouble and make them behave themselves, he will have to thank her!
After figuring this out, Emperor Xuanwu completely let it go.
So overnight, the fifth princess made something called "earth dragon". It only needed the most ordinary black charcoal to make the whole palace warm like spring.
Even Emperor Xuanwu, after experiencing it, could not help but pay out of his own pocket and asked the Fifth Princess to lay "ground dragons" in his Dragon Bergamot Palace and the Imperial Study. The news spread throughout the harem.
Concubine Liu was the first one who couldn't help but ask Yun Chuhuan to ask Yun Shu about this matter when he went to the study the next day.
"So the 'earth dragon' thing is true?
How much would it cost to pave our Yaohua Palace? Is 100,000 taels enough?"
Yun Shu: “!!”
He really is worthy of being her sixth brother!
The starting price was 100,000 taels.
She really wanted to nod!!
But no.
Hum!
