Chapter 848: We each get what we need, no need for thanks
ed talking about it. Their family must be severely short of water, that's why he kept coming to their door.I didn't mention a word about water when I left just now.The village chief called his son Tie...As soon as Prime Minister Yuan spoke, the silent officials began to chime in with each other in twos and threes.
Historically, the imperial merchants who supplied goods to the palace have always been monopolized by prominent families.
Where there's wealth to be had, everyone wants a piece of the pie.
Suddenly, a woman named Fang Jinshi appeared at the birthday banquet out of nowhere. She was unknown to everyone, not from a prominent family and without any powerful connections behind her. So how did she become a royal merchant
"Indeed, Your Majesty. I also believe this matter requires further consideration."
"We agree."
The emperor frowned. He couldn't even eat a vegetable without these ministers' consent. Was he the emperor, or were they
"Hmph, don't think I don't know what you all are thinking."
"Isn't it just because you see that this woman has no one to support her, and you think she can't handle the honor of supplying vegetables to the palace"
When the emperor spoke, everyone broke out in a cold sweat.
Normally, Your Majesty would turn a blind eye and never make a scene in front of so many people.
Yuan the chancellor frowned.
"Your Majesty, we are truly concerned for your health. What Ms. Fang just said was merely her one-sided account. No one has actually seen the effects of these vegetables and grains prolonging life."
"If her intentions are malicious, Your Majesty's safety is in jeopardy."
"Please reconsider, Your Majesty."
Fang Jinshu stared intently at Yuan Buyu. He was the prime minister, he was the culprit who had taken her mother-in-law's husband!
Zong Pingchuan's greed for wealth and power is certainly despicable, but Yuan Buyu, as a high-ranking official of the current dynasty, shouldn't it be easy to investigate the family background of a student
She didn't believe Yuan Buyu didn't know about Zong Pingchuan having a wife and children back home.
Mr. Yuan, the prime minister, noticed Fang Jinxiu's scorching gaze. As soon as he turned his head, Fang Jinxiu had lowered her eyes and restrained all her emotions, as if nothing had happened just now. She remained kneeling there obediently.
Fu Ming was somewhat anxious. He hadn't expected that even for supplying vegetables to the palace, Yuan Zai Xiang would have to intervene in such a small matter.
The Emperor was very wary of this person. No, he had to think of a way and couldn't let Fang Jinshu's plan go awry.
"Your Majesty, I think Grand Tutor Yuan is being overly cautious."
"Fang was just an ordinary commoner, as she herself said. Even if her father gave her a thousand guts, she wouldn't dare to offer problematic food and vegetables to the palace."
"As far as my knowledge goes, many households in the capital city now purchase fruits, vegetables and grain from Jinxiu Vegetable Garden, including Yuan Xiang’s household. You have already tasted the fruits, vegetables and grain planted by Fang's family."
"May I ask how everyone is doing lately Have you all improved compared to before, or have you encountered any problems"
Fu Ming's words were like a stone thrown into the water, causing astonishment among the officials.
"What, she, she's the owner of Jinxiu Caizhuang"
"This woman is actually the mistress of Jinshu Cai Zhuang."
"No wonder he dares to present vegetables before Your Majesty."
Many officials began to whisper amongst themselves. The emperor was taken aback and quickly pointed to someone.
"You, tell me what's going on Is what Lao Qi said true"
The official, trembling with fear, stepped forward and knelt down to answer.
"Reporting back to Your Majesty, the Seventh Prince's words are true."
"The vegetables and grains from Jinxiu Vegetable Farm are truly delicious, and after eating them for a long time, my health has improved significantly compared to before."
Fang Jinshu smiled, "Of course, all these grains and vegetables are grown from soil watered with spiritual spring water."
She has completely changed the nature of the soil, so that the fruits and vegetables that grow afterwards, even if they are not watered with spring water, will be more tender, delicious, and have a longer shelf life than ordinary vegetables.
What you eat at the entrance, if it's healthy, your body will naturally feel lighter. Isn't that mutually beneficial
The so-called effect of longevity is actually dietary therapy.
It's just that no one else understands.
"Father, why not ask Minister Yuan if his stomach ailment has recurred recently"
It is well-known throughout the court that Yuan Buyu suffers from a stomach ailment. The emperor has even sent imperial physicians to treat him with all their care and skill, but unfortunately, this is not a condition that can be cured quickly. It requires long-term conditioning and protection for improvement.
As soon as Fu Ming spoke, Yuan Buyu's eyes narrowed slightly before returning to normal.
When the Emperor looked at him, he had already bowed in response.
"It seems this old servant has mistaken a pearl for common stone, never expecting that this lady would be the mistress of Jinxiu Vegetable Garden."
He smiled and turned to Fang Jinshu, "Thanks to your family's cooking, these days my appetite has truly opened up, and my stomach ailment hasn't bothered me in ages."
Fang Jinshi hurriedly returned the salute, “It is an honor for a common woman to be able to help the Prime Minister recover.”
Moreover, it's all business. You all bought these at a price, so we each get what we need. No need for thanks or anything like that.
Fang Jinxiu's clumsy performance made the emperor burst into laughter. If this woman could truly handle herself in front of all the civil and military officials like this, he would start to doubt if she was really a commoner.
Such performance now has eased the Emperor's suspicion considerably.t benefit your family at all."When Li Muhai was stopped, he felt indignant. "If we don't go to the county office to report them, should I just let my son suffer so much for nothing Our family's saving...
