Ye Yucai added another sentence: "It's a pity that on the way to Qi State, we have to pass through Qingyi City. The terrain near Qingyi City is special. We must have an order from the city lord of Qingyi City to open the village road."
"I heard that Qingyi City has a new city owner recently, but I don't know if he will be a good one."
The Lord of Qingyi City ordered Ye Fuxun to call Xiao Yu and said: "Go and get the diamond-shaped jade plaque from my makeup box."
Xiao Yu quickly took the jade token over, and Ye Fuxun brought the jade token to Ye Yu and said, "Brother, this belongs to me, the last saint of the Tsing Yi tribe."
"You can take this token to see Aunt Qingyi, and she will definitely help you."
She added, "If you don't see Aunt Qingyi, go to the current saint Qingling, she will also try her best to help."
Ye Yu raised his eyebrows slightly: "My sister is familiar with the saint of the Tsing Yi tribe? That's great!"
The Walled Road of Qingyi City has always been the most difficult pass on the Yan-Qi passage. Although after the signing of the Yan-Qi Hundred Years Peace Treaty, the two countries will definitely increase trade exchanges, the Walled Road of Qingyi City may be slowly opened at the request of the imperial court.
But as far as business is concerned, time is money. The sooner you can clear the hurdles and get your business through, you will have an absolute advantage.
Ye Yu knew that Ye Fuxun followed the prince to the border of Yan Kingdom to participate in the battle, and he must have had a relationship with the saint of the Tsing Yi tribe to hold her token.
But the token of the Saint of the Tsing Yi Clan is not a simple thing, it is more precious and rare than the City Lord's token. However, since it was given by his sister, Ye Yu naturally would not refuse it.
He took the token with a smile: "This token is indeed of great use to my brother, so you're welcome."
Ye Fuxun curled up her lips happily. She had received so many gifts and affection from her aunt and Ye Yu, and it was her happiest thing to be able to repay them.
"Your sister-in-law's marriage has happened again," Aunt Shen mentioned about Ye Fuxun, "I heard it was Prince Bao's marriage?"
Ye Fuxun nodded and recounted the situation of that day, which made Aunt Shen and Ye Yu's faces darken.
"Young lady is really too much." Aunt Shen couldn't help but curse. Although her status in the mansion was not as good as that of Ye Fuxun, it could be seen that Ye Fuxun was bullying Ye Fuxun like this, and she was naturally angry.
Ye Yu frowned, he was really disgusted with the uncle's dirty thoughts.
It seemed that he still had to win the first prize as soon as possible. Only by becoming an official in the court and having enough status could he deal with all the ghosts and monsters who wanted to harm his sister one by one.
"Don't worry, aunt and brother, Ah Xun will naturally not be bullied by her." Ye Fuxun comforted the two of them, "Besides, with His Highness here, he will protect Ah Xun."
Speaking of this, Aunt Shen and Ye Yu looked a little brighter. The prince was really kind to Ah Xun.
The three of them chatted for a while, and then Aunt Shen and Ye Yu got up and left. Before leaving, Ye Fuxun asked Xiaoyu to fill a cart full of gifts as usual.
The only other goal was to let the people in the Zhenguo Palace know how she felt about her aunt and brother.
At night, when Ji Yannuo came back, Ye Fuxun held the box and showed him the title deed of the silver mine.
"Silver...mine?" Ji Yannuo took the land deed handed over by Ye Fuxun and looked at it twice, dumbfounded.
Silver mines are extremely rare minerals, and there are only about twenty silver mines under the control of the Yan court.
His mother-in-law, Ah Xun, casually gave away two silver mines to Ah Xun? This made him feel so embarrassed.
He had never had such a mineral deposit in his hand to give to Ah Xun. The feeling of being compared with his brother-in-law seemed a bit bad.
Seeing that Ji Yannuo's expression was not good-looking, Ye Fuxun couldn't help but feel nervous: "Your Highness, but now the court regulations prohibit private individuals from owning silver mines?"
"No...yes." Ji Yannuo cleared his throat, "The imperial court did not explicitly stipulate that private mining is prohibited, but you must obtain mining rights before you can mine privately."
"And after private mining, taxes must be paid in proportion." Ye Fuxun reassured him, and what Ji Yannuo said was exactly the same as what his brother said.
"It's just that silver mines are precious, and private mining is rare." Ji Yannuo pondered, "If Ah Xun is not in a hurry, these two silver mines can be explored slowly."
Ye Fuxun nodded and responded, "I'm not in a hurry."
The best Ji Yannuo will be mined after he ascends the throne. With Ji Yannuo as the emperor as his backer, there will naturally be no obstacles to silver mining.
Furthermore, Ye Fuxun actually does not need that much money. It is also a good thing to keep the silver mine for use when necessary.
The two chatted for a while, and Ye Fulun became sleepy again. Ji Yannuo held her in his arms and patted her gently until she fell asleep.
The next day is the Dragon Boat Festival.
This day happened to be a holiday, because a large-scale dragon boat race was held in the capital, and many officials took their families to the moat to watch the dragon boat race.
Because there were so many people going to watch the dragon boat race and it was crowded, Ji Yannuo and Ye Fuxun discussed it for a while and decided to stay in the house and relax for a day.
Ye Fuxun got up from a late nap. Seeing the gloomy weather outside, he couldn't help but ask: "Xiaoyu, it's probably going to rain soon based on the weather. Can the dragon boat race be held normally today?"
Xiaoyu helped her stand up with a smile: "Madam, people often say that it rains dragon boats. This is a rainy time around the Dragon Boat Festival. In previous years, even if it rained, the dragon boat race would still be held."
Qiaoer brought the basin for cleaning noodles: "I heard from the old man before that dragon boat racing is about swimming in the rain. It means that it is more interesting to race dragon boats in the rain."
"Your Majesty," Xiao Yu recalled Ji Yannuo's previous instructions, "His Highness said that there were courtiers waiting to discuss matters in the front yard, so he had breakfast in advance and went to the front yard. He asked the servants to wait for Your Majesty to wake up before informing Your Majesty."
Ye Fuxun nodded, Ji Yannuo has been busier than usual these days.
After washing and changing clothes and having breakfast, Ye Fuxun saw that the rain had not yet started, so he ordered: "I will go to the front yard."
When we arrived at Yongtan Palace, we went straight to the study without any obstruction. At that time, the officials discussing court affairs had just left the front yard, and Ji Yannuo was annotating official documents.
Seeing Ye Fuxun coming, he hurriedly put down his pen and greeted him: "I was just thinking about finishing the first two urgent documents and going to Mingyue Palace. Why is Axun here?"
She took out a tassel woven with colorful silk threads from her cuffs, with a Hetian warm jade in the shape of a Ruyi Yuanbao embellished on it. She stretched out her hand and waved it: "Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, so I personally made this tassel for you. You can wave it."
Righteous energy wards off evil spirits."
Ji Yannuo took the tassel and looked at it carefully, a smile flashed in his eyes: "Are these tassels really made by Ah Xun himself?" Ye Fuxun glared at him: "Of course! It took me a whole day."
"The craftsmanship is so good, I can't believe it." Ji Yannuo took out a rough Chinese knot from his arms and compared the two, "It really doesn't look like it was made by the same person."
"I understand," he continued, "Maybe it was because I taught him well that day that Ah Xun's skills improved by leaps and bounds."
