Chapter 460: Princess Kangning with a fiefdom
Chapter 460: Princess Kangning with a fiefdom
Early in the morning, an imperial edict was sent out from the palace.
"Princess Kangning? I am now a princess?"
Yuxiu took the bright yellow imperial edict from Eunuch Gui and was quite surprised.
You should know that when the cement and glass samples came out, Qi Siyuan sent her a contract.
It was clearly written in black and white that after these two items were sold, 10% of the profits would be given to Yuxiu every year.
Although it doesn't sound like a lot, once these things are made, you can imagine that a huge number will be sold every year.
By then, even if the profit is only 10%, it is estimated that it will be enough for Yuxiu's family to have no worries about food and drink.
Yuxiu was still very satisfied with this result.
You don't have to spend any money or work, and you don't have to worry about anything else. You can just sit at home and get some free money. It's a great thought.
She thought it was over, but she never expected that the emperor could give her such a big surprise.
"Your Majesty's words are golden, so they cannot be false."
Eunuch Gui was quite amused and kindly reminded her:
"Princess Kangning, you are the first princess to have a fiefdom so far. His Majesty values you so much, you must come to the palace in person to express your gratitude."
That’s right, it seems that the emperor was in a very good mood this time. Not only did he confer the title of princess on Yuxiu, he also generously gave her a fiefdom.
The name of the fief was Chen County, which was said to be a very remote little place in the north.
After hearing what Eunuch Gui said, Yuxiu quickly nodded in agreement.
A small place is fine, she doesn't mind.
Going to express gratitude was also the rule, and she naturally understood that.
He gave some reward money to the young eunuchs and gave Eunuch Gui an especially large red envelope before sending the person away.
After sending away all the people who had gathered to watch the fun, Yuxiu returned home with Old Mrs. Cui and her two younger brothers.
It was a coincidence today. Xu Qinghe took his people to work outside the city early in the morning, and Cui also had a very serious patient to deal with.
Since both adults were not at home, Mrs. Cui was happy but also a little nervous.
"Xiu Xiu, that princess from last time was sent away to marry a foreign prince. You, this..."
The old lady didn't understand the twists and turns between the big shots in the capital, she just wanted her family to be safe and sound.
The last time Xu Letie was named Princess Le'an and then married to the Beidi, even though the old lady rarely went out, she had heard about it from the maids and old women.
In the old lady's eyes, the Northern Di were all savages who ate raw meat and drank blood.
A little girl who grew up in the capital, who has been pampered all day long and has never suffered any hardship, if she were to marry someone thousands of miles away, wouldn't she be bullied to death?
"Don't worry, old lady. Not only is the world peaceful now, there is no need for marriage. Besides, even if that day really comes, we are not afraid, right?"
Yuxiu casually placed the imperial edict on the table and went over to help Old Mrs. Cui sit down.
"My whole family is in the capital. Even if I want to get married, I won't marry someone in such a remote place."
Yuxiu knew that the old lady had never seen such a big scene and was probably a little scared, so she quickly said a few words to comfort her.
"You're right to think so. When a woman gets married, it's her second reincarnation. If it's a good reincarnation, she can continue to be a human being. If it's a bad reincarnation, she can only be a slave..."
Old Lady Cui took Yuxiu's hand and patted it, admonishing her:
"Don't act on your own. No matter what happens, your parents are there to support you. At worst, we can just leave the capital and live in a remote place. There's no need to put yourself in a difficult position..."
Yuxiu nodded her head like a chick pecking at rice, but actually she wanted to laugh.
I don’t know if this old lady has been listening to too many storybooks recently, but she is always afraid that she will be bullied by someone because of the implicit meaning of the story.
The two chatted for a while, and then Cui and Xu Qinghe came back together.
They were both very happy to learn that their daughter was named Princess Kangning.
"Be good, just give out two prescriptions, and His Majesty will make you a princess?"
Xu Qinghe took the shining imperial edict and looked at it again and again, touched it again and again, feeling very emotional.
I have to say, my daughter is really amazing.
"Don't you see how useful those two prescriptions are?"
Cui was also very happy. She wiped her hands on her body again and again, then took the imperial edict and looked at it.
Touching the large golden characters on the imperial edict, his eyes suddenly became hot and tears fell.
"When my daughter was born, she was so thin and small, even her cry was so weak..."
She thought about how harshly the old Xu family had treated her family when they were in Xujia Village, and she felt sad and bitter.
"That vicious old woman saw that the child was skinny and small, and she told me several times to throw her away in the back hills, saying that a little girl wouldn't amount to anything even if I took the trouble to raise her..."
What a pity, what a pity, that old woman died too early.
We should let her live well and open her eyes to see that even though our daughter is still a girl, she is no longer an ordinary girl now.
One day, Cui heard the old woman talking to Wang from the first wife, saying that the second wife had given birth to a useless and money-losing child, and she had spent a lot of effort to take care of the child.
I don't know how much work was delayed by going back and forth. If I had known, I would have thrown her into the urine bucket and drowned her after she was born...
Since that day, no matter what Cui did, she would always keep little Yuxiu by her side, for fear that someone would find a chance to harm her.
"Let the past be the past. Now our family is harmonious and happy. Even if those people want to see it, they don't have the chance to see it anymore."
Seeing that Cui was sad, Xu Qinghe hurried forward to comfort her.
As for the people in the old Xu family, all of them had died in the last incident with Xu Linzhi.
However, even if those people were still alive, they would probably be angry to death after seeing such a scene.
I thought the biggest happy event of the day was this imperial edict, but I didn't expect that when Yuxiu returned to her room, there was an even bigger surprise waiting for her.
"Ding ding ding... Report to the host, the small system upgrade is complete..."
As soon as she returned to the house, Yuxiu heard a series of familiar electronic sounds.
"Is the upgrade complete? Come out and show it to this host..."
Yuxiu was delighted. This guy said he wanted to upgrade, and then he disappeared without a trace for several days.
If the system mall and space were not operating normally, Yuxiu would sometimes wonder if this little thing had abandoned her and ran away.
"Hehehe...After this upgrade, all those functions that were previously only viewable but not usable can now be used."
Not only was Yuxiu happy, but even the small system's tone was filled with excitement.
With a flash of light, the virtual display screen appeared in front of Yuxiu again.
But what is different from before is that a small window similar to a video call appears in the upper right corner of the display.
