The room was quiet, Yu Zheng hugged Jiang Shu and refused to let go for a long time.
Jiang Shu, whose hands and feet were a little cold after returning from outside, was surprised to be warmed by Yu Zheng's body temperature.
Jiang Shu couldn't help but sigh, the weather was getting cold, and Yu Zheng's constant-temperature hotpot came in handy again.
"Ah..." Yu Ziyou, who was lying on the soft couch, waved and kicked his legs in protest.
Jiang Shu patted Yu Zheng on the back and said softly: "Ziyou is going to make a scene."
Yu Zheng took a deep breath and let go of the man in his arms.
Jiang Shu stood up, picked up Yu Ziyou and teased him.
Yu Zheng looked at the mother and son with an extremely gentle expression.
"Prince, Princess, dinner is set." Chu Yu came in and took Yu Ziyou from Jiang Shu.
It was getting late, Yu Ziyou played for a long time, felt a little sleepy, opened his mouth and yawned.
Chu Yu carried him back to the house to rest, while Jiang Shu and Yu Zheng went to the outer room to eat.
After a tiring afternoon, Jiang Shu was starving and felt that tonight's meal was particularly delicious.
"Eat slowly, don't choke." Yu Zheng served her a bowl of soup, warmed it and handed it to her.
Jiang Shuzheng felt a little dry and drank half the bowl in one breath.
Seeing her like this, Yu Zheng frowned slightly: "Don't be so busy that you don't care about your health anymore."
"I know." Jiang Shu obeyed and gave him a piece of ribs.
After resting for a while, the two of them went to take a bath together.
Jiang Shu sighed happily as his tired body soaked in the hot spring pool, feeling warm and comfortable all over his body.
Yu Zheng took the cotton handkerchief and carefully scrubbed it for her bit by bit.
Jiang Shu had long been used to it, closing his eyes and letting Yu Zheng manipulate him.
Two quarters of an hour later, the two came out of the bathroom and went to bed to rest.
Yu Zheng pulled the quilt and held Jiang Shu in his arms, asking her the details of today.
It is not an easy task to call on all the silk shops and cloth shops in the city to help the court without making any money.
Jiang Shu whispered, and Yu Zheng listened carefully.
After Jiang Shu finished speaking, Yu Zheng kissed her cheek and said, "I'm sorry for you."
"Although everyone was reluctant at first, after the truth was explained, they were willing to do it, and it was not difficult." Jiang Shu said in a relaxed tone, not wanting to burden Yu Zheng.
However, Yu Zheng understood everything in his heart. He kissed her again and said, "If anything like this happens again in the future, don't face it alone. I'll be with you."
"At least, let me know in advance."
"Okay." Jiang Shu arched in his arms like a lazy cat.
Yu Zheng stroked her hair and couldn't help but kiss her again.
Jiang Shu yawned and thought thoughtfully: "Although the raw materials have been obtained, it will still take time to rush into production. Two hundred thousand soldiers will need at least two sets per person. Even if the whole city's embroiderers work together, it will probably take more than a month."
But the border officers could not wait so long.
With cold hands and feet and a hungry stomach, it is impossible to hold a knife and kill the enemy steadily.
Yu Zheng was silent for a moment and whispered: "I'll find a way."
"What can you do?" Jiang Shu asked curiously.
Yu Zheng thought about it and told her what he was thinking.
After hearing this, Jiang Shu said excitedly: "If this can be done, the first batch can be produced within ten days, and all of them can be completed within twenty days."
"Yeah." Yu Zheng responded, tucking her in the corner of the quilt that she pulled away.
Jiang Shu leaned in Yu Zheng's arms, hugged his waist, and thought: "With all the food, grass and winter clothes, the soldiers will definitely be able to defeat Mobei."
"Yes." Yu Zheng took a breath and said touchedly: "With your full support and the united efforts of the army and people of Dazhao, there is no difficulty that cannot be overcome."
Jiang Shu was a little embarrassed and whispered: "Jiang Ning said that only when the country is safe can the family be safe. We are just doing our best to protect our own family. It doesn't mean anything."
There is Yu Zheng in her family.
And Yu Zheng is King Zhaojing.
In the past, Dazhao was prosperous and peaceful, and they could do business safely because they were protected by the king and soldiers. Now that Dazhao is in trouble, they should try their best to help.
"Jiang Ning has grown up." Yu Zheng sighed.
That night, the two talked a lot.
Yu Zheng kissed Jiang Shu's cheek from time to time, almost always in the same place. By the end of the kiss, Jiang Shu felt that part of his face was almost numb, which was funny and helpless at the same time.
I don’t know how long they had been chatting, but a heavy sleepiness came over me. Jiang Shu said softly, "Go to sleep, husband."
"Go to sleep." Yu Zheng kissed her again.
Jiang Shu changed into a comfortable position and fell into a deep sleep.
Yu Zheng hugged her lovingly, like a rare treasure.
In the morning court the next day, Yu Zheng told the emperor that Jiang Ji, together with all the silk shops in the city, was willing to sell grain and winter clothes to the imperial court at cost price.
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the palace.
"Does His Highness King Jing really mean this?"
"If this is true, the problem of food, grass and winter clothing can be solved." The Minister of the Ministry of War couldn't contain his joy.
In order to collect food, grass and winter clothes, he had no food and no sleep these days. Every time he faced the emperor's cross-examination, he was frightened and sweating.
Seeing Yu Zheng nodding in confirmation, the other officials also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Great, His Royal Highness can lead the soldiers to fight with peace of mind, without any worries..."
The emperor was shocked when he heard this, and asked in shock: "Is it Princess Jing's idea?"
Yu Zheng nodded.
The emperor exclaimed: "With such great righteousness and magnanimity, you are better than a lady from a noble family. You have married a good princess."
"Thank you, Father, for your praise." Yu Zheng accepted it calmly and felt honored.
Taifu Zhou said sincerely: "Princess Jing can set an example for women in the world."
"What Taifu Zhou said is that Princess Jing's feats make us admire and admire her." The other courtiers praised her.
All high-ranking families value status, especially the royal family. The emperor and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, who had originally criticized Jiang Shu, were convinced after witnessing Jiang Shu's successive righteous deeds.
Although she is the daughter of a merchant, she has the style of setting an example for the world.
After hearing the praises of the ministers, Yu Zheng calmly said: "There is still a difficult problem at the moment..."
After hearing this, the emperor asked: "What solution do you have?"
He knows his son better than his father. With the emperor's understanding of Yu Zheng, he must have thought of a way.
Yu Zheng said in a condensed voice: "The embroiderers in the palace's clothing bureau are all free and can help with the production. Furthermore, there are maids in the families of the courtiers and aristocratic families who can sew clothes, and there are also many common people who can sew..."
If all these people are mobilized, we will get twice the result with half the effort and save more than half of our time.
"Your Majesty, this is a very good policy, and I agree with it." Prime Minister Xie was the first to speak out.
"I second the proposal." The remaining courtiers said in unison.
The emperor had no objection to such a good plan, so the matter was settled.
Yu Zheng added: "Dazhao is not only the Dazhao of people in Beijing, but also the people of the whole country should be united. Although food and winter clothing have been solved, fodder is still a problem."
Whether it is transporting baggage or going into battle, horses are extremely important. And fodder is as indispensable as food.
"My ministers thought that we should issue orders to various places along the way and order local officials and people to prepare fodder and supply supplies along the way."
Shangjing is thousands of miles away from the border, and it would take a month for the army to arrive. The horses will eat a lot of forage along the way. If they don't get supplies, there won't be much left when they get to the border.
In the past, when transporting grain and grass, some would only be replenished during rest periods at the post station. However, the demand this time is too great, and it is far from enough to rely solely on replenishment at the inn.
The ministers discussed it and all agreed.
"What the prince said is reasonable, and I agree with you."
"That's it." The problem that troubled his heart was solved, and the emperor suddenly felt relieved.
