Chapter 92 The First Daughter Is Not Vicious33
Chapter 92 The legitimate daughter is not vicious 33
In the Fengtian Hall, the Queen Mother was on the throne. Not long after she returned from Jiangnan, Princess Pingning, who officially became the princess participating in politics, stood before the Queen Mother.
Princess Pingning's eyes contained a look of expectation. Her most important ally was about to arrive soon, and Princess Pingning was unbearably excited.
Glancing at the emperor cryptically, Princess Pingning knew that her brother-in-law was not as idiotic and only interested in having fun as he seemed on the surface.
But so what, time was not given to him. Now it was her mother who was in charge, and she was her mother's favorite daughter.
Now she has cleaned up the Jiangnan officialdom, proved her ability, and entered the court with great merit.
Although she did not show that she coveted that position, courtiers who were good at investing had secretly turned to her.
Now her ally Bai Wushuang has returned with great achievements and is about to enter the court and become her strong support. She is not afraid of being defeated by an emperor who dare not stand up.
The emperor on the dragon throne looked bored, sitting there with an absent-minded look on his face, but in fact he was very upset.
He had long known about Bai Wushuang, the new talent his mother had recruited.
At first, the emperor didn't take Bai Wushuang seriously. She was just a woman who could accomplish great things.
All we can do is get some opera singers to entertain people, and at most they are just sycophants.
Who knew that the other party would lead his men and build the river embankment in a blink of an eye.
Moreover, the embankment has been inspected. The embankment that flooded before the canal and was washed away every year was intact this time, protecting the surrounding people well.
After discovering that the other party had real abilities, the emperor wanted to recruit Bai Wushuang.
Unfortunately, before he could take action, the other party had already gone to Duozhe and Nozhen on the orders of his mother.
Although he did not receive the exact information, the Queen Mother's solemn and eager summons to the Fengtian Palace was certainly not to make a fool of herself in public.
The emperor had a headache. He had few useful ministers.
However, the queen mother has such a powerful close minister. Due to the ebb and flow of one thing and another, his path to personal governance will definitely be more difficult.
However, the emperor thought about the gender of the other party, and felt a little lucky in his heart.
The other party is a woman, and women always like to be emotional.
If he could make Bai Wushuang fall in love with him, and then promise him the position of queen, he might not be able to take this queen mother's confidant as his own.
Thinking of taking Bai Wushuang away, the emperor couldn't help but sit up straight and put away the bored look on his face.
He was planning to use a beauty trick, and it’s no wonder the emperor was so confident.
Wearing a black dragon robe with black gold embroidery, coupled with the emperor's impressive appearance, it really attracted the attention of women.
Wushuang stepped into Fengtian Hall and after bowing, she looked up and saw a peacock in full bloom opening its tail in front of her.
Wushuang was not sure at first that the emperor was seducing him. After all, he was sitting on it, facing all the ministers.
But when Wushuang and the Queen Mother were asking questions, the emperor's shadowy gaze could not be ignored by Wushuang.
It's hard to say whether the other party is seducing her, but it's obvious that he is very interested in her.
Without having to think too hard, Wu Shuang roughly guessed what the emperor was thinking.
No matter what the other party's intentions are, Wushuang cannot make the other party get what they want.
The most important thing for Wushuang at this moment is to report to the Queen Mother the entire process of the actions of Duozhe and Nozhen.
Wu Shuang brushed off his own contribution, but vigorously described Bao Yingying and Qing Lu's contribution this time.
Wushuang's approach of neither taking credit nor suppressing those below caused many courtiers to change their attitudes towards her.
It is normal for a superior to embezzle the credit of his subordinates, but no one likes such a superior. At least Wushuang is qualified as a superior.
Moreover, no matter how Wushuang downplays her own contribution, it does not prevent others from knowing how great her contribution is.
Wushuang showed her merits to her subordinates in this way, and her subordinates would naturally be grateful to her.
Qinglu has always been silent, only saying that he has been following the master, and all the credit belongs to the master.
Bao Yingying reciprocated the favor and praised Wushuang's achievements.
It is no exaggeration to say that his eloquence in business is as bright as a lotus tongue.
Through his words, everything Wushuang did was simply a story book passed down from generation to generation with ups and downs, thrills and excitement.
The Queen Mother was all smiles after hearing this, and even the Emperor couldn't help but sit up straight and rarely expressed his opinion: "Bai Qing is truly unparalleled in both wisdom and courage."
Wushuang saluted humbly: "Your Majesty is so complimentary, and I feel so ashamed that I don't deserve it. It's because Lord Bao over-praises his ministers' merits."
Without waiting for the emperor to intervene, the Queen Mother took over the words: "My dear, there is no need to belittle yourself. This plan to make money from Duozhe and Nozhen was originally what I loved.
This time, Aiqing is the one who deserves the most credit. I don’t know how the money that Aiqing harvested from her trip to Duozhe and Nozhen was brought back to me, Daerong? And where was it placed?"
Wushuang immediately said: "Yin Qianchen has brought all of my Da Rong back. As for how they were brought back, I would like to ask the Queen Mother and all of you to move outside the palace and take a look."
Hearing what Wushuang meant, he not only brought the silver back, but also brought it into the palace.
The Queen Mother, the Emperor and the ministers all became curious and wanted to see how Wu Shuang brought back so much money.
Outside the Fengtian Palace, the carriages Wu Shuang brought back were all driven into the palace.
Now they are arranged neatly and densely in the huge square.
Wushuang stood in front of the carriage, pulled out a long knife from the waist of a guard next to him, and scraped the carriage with the blade.
Soon, a layer of paint was scraped off by Wushuang, revealing a large area of silvery light.
The eyes of the Queen of Heaven and the many courtiers who had been watching were widened in surprise.
What was even more surprising was yet to come. As Wushuang scraped off the paint of another vehicle frame, what appeared underneath was a brilliant golden light.
When Wushuang collected money for road construction, many yamen did not have enough money, so they used gold to make up for it. Especially the emperors of the two countries gave the most gold.
Wushuang returned the knife to the guard and saluted the Queen Mother.
"Empress Dowager, I have made all the gold and silver I earned from Nozhen and Duozhe into bicycle frames and brought them back!
How many silver frames are there, how many gold frames are there, how many taels of gold and silver are there, I have already registered them.
The Queen Mother only needs to order people to melt these frames into gold and silver ingots, and then they can be collected into the treasury and used later."
After saying that, Wu Shuang took out the thick account book that he had prepared and put in the secret pocket of his sleeve, and handed it to the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother took the account book and flipped through a few pages. The more she read, the happier she became.
The amount of gold and silver made her excited. She would not have to worry about the treasury for at least twenty years!
After closing the account book, the Queen Mother stepped forward to examine the gold and silver carriage carefully, laughed twice, and felt very high-spirited.
Having such good ministers to assist her is enough to prove her ability to govern and look after people.
