Chapter 1595 Make Cotton Shoes
On that day, when a palace maid was giving Cui Yunxi a dish, Cui Yunxi sent the maid out.
Ning Siyu looked at Cui Yunxi's depressed look and asked, "I'er is not satisfied with them? If you are not satisfied, please change."
Cui Yunxi hurriedly said, "They did a good job, either they were dissatisfied with them, or because they did it so well, I felt that I could not do anything. Now I almost let them feed them to my mouth even if I had a meal."
Ning Siyu said: "If Xier doesn't want to, just let them wait outside the house, but they can't send people away. Gu is about to lead the army to fight. There are more people around Xier to take care of him, so Gu is more at ease."
Cui Yunxi was shocked when she heard this and asked quickly: "Your Highness wants to lead people to attack Nanfan in person?"
Ning Siyu explained: "Now that the cold winter is approaching, Nanfan is very active in the border for the sake of materials. Gu led his soldiers to take away Youzhen's tribe. If Gu personally led his troops, it would be able to enhance the morale of the soldiers. With morale, the generals would be more likely to win the battle."
She could only ask reluctantly: "When will your Highness set off?"
Ning Siyu sighed, held Cui Yunxi in his arms, and said, "I will set off soon."
Cui Yunxi knew that this battle must be fought and won, so that Daning's current turbulent situation could be harmonious and stable.
Although Cui Yunxi was reluctant to leave, she knew that the overall situation was the most important.
If Ning Siyu personally led his troops, I don’t know how many people would be sacrificed.
"Prince, try to minimize casualties. Behind everyone, there is a family looking forward to their return home." Cui Yunxi said.
Ning Siyu never cared about these things in the past. There were no immortals in the war, but since he had her and children, his heart became much softer.
"With those things about the princess, I will do my best to defeat the other party with tactics, and will not ignore the lives of the soldiers and use swords to fight for victory or loss."
Cui Yunxi bent the corners of her mouth and nodded.
soon.
It was time for Ning Siyu to lead the troops to fight.
Cui Yunxi went outside Beijing to see them off.
Looking at the thin clothes on the soldiers, Cui Yunxi felt a little unbearable.
As soon as he returned to the palace, Cui Yunxi organized the palace maids to make cotton shoes for the soldiers who went to war.
As the saying goes, cold starts from the feet.
As long as your feet are warm, people will not get sick easily.
Moreover, shoes require less cotton, which can help more people.
Xia Lian was responsible for registering materials. Looking at the cotton in the account, Xia Lian had a headache and went to Cui Yunxi to report: "Empress, we have taken the lead in embezzling the supplies for the palace people in winter, but the cotton in the account is still almost used up. If the cotton is gone, our cotton shoes will not be able to be made."
Cui Yunxi pondered for a moment and said, "Take 20,000 taels of silver from the private warehouse of this palace and go to the northern Xinjiang to buy cotton. If there is too much, just buy it. You can negotiate with the other party to settle some of it and then press some of it, and say that you will settle all of it after you send it over. Cotton can be more, not less."
Xia Lian received the money and hurried out to do business.
It happened to meet Meiren Jiang who came to see her. When she heard about the cotton shoes, she also gave an idea: "Crown Princess, the distance water cannot save the near fire. Why don't we help the people in the city? They won't sit idly by."
