After being bound to the learning system in my mother's womb, I became the empress

Chapter 178 The queen’s verbal battle with women
Lu Sanniang suddenly stared at Lin Xi, "I don't believe it. If we play another game, this time I will definitely——"

Mrs. Lu: "Sanniang, if you lose, you lose. It's just a game of chess. It's no big deal. Come back."

Losing chess is not terrible. What is terrible is not admitting that you have lost.

If this spreads out, it will damage her reputation!
Lu Sanniang was very reluctant, but her mother had already spoken and she had to obey.

After taking two steps, she turned back to Lin Xi and said, "Little sister, you are very powerful. What is your name? If I have a chance in the future, I would like to ask you for advice."

Lin Xi put on an invincible and cute face and said something that was so infuriating that it cost her life: "The loser has no right to know my name."

Lu Sanniang: "..."

The hands in his sleeves suddenly clenched into fists.

Everyone: "..."

This kid is so arrogant!
"I just won a game of chess, what's the big deal..." someone muttered.

"The person she won was Lu Sanniang." said someone next to her.

After a game of drumming and passing flowers, no one became the winner of the Ying family.

Except for Mrs. Pei at the beginning, no one else could get the recipe.

Mrs. Pei was complacent, but the others were waning, feeling that they had been walked around by the queen.

Especially Mrs. Cui, who had previously drawn the "leapfrog" flower note, she was very unhappy. She had already given the queen face by enduring it until now.

Not wanting to stay any longer, she stood up and bowed to the queen.

"Your Highness, I feel a little unwell, so I will take my leave now."

The queen did not stop her, "Bai Wei, send my wife off for me."

Mrs. Cui's husband is Prime Minister Cui, who is the leader of hundreds of officials, and she herself is a noble girl from the Lu family, a first-class family, so naturally she is not afraid of offending the queen.

Just leave.

The other ladies, who were also from first-class families, also found excuses to leave.

The queen's face was still graceful and gentle, and she didn't mind the trouble, so she let them go with a smile.

But the others did not have the confidence to leave without giving the queen face, so they still stayed in the palace.

It's just that I'm a little on pins and needles.

The queen glanced at the people below and said slowly: "Actually, the reason for holding the flower viewing banquet this time is because I got a treasure recently, and I want to invite you to come and take a look."

Following her words, someone from the palace entered the palace carrying a tray.

There is a large disk on the tray, which is covered with a golden cover carved with dragons and phoenixes.

Obviously, the treasure the queen was talking about was under the golden cover.

Those who stayed behind couldn't help but look forward to it.

The queen specially held a banquet for them to come and observe the baby. It must be extraordinary, right?

Fortunately, they didn't leave with Mrs. Cui, otherwise wouldn't they have missed the opportunity to see the baby?
The queen raised her hand to indicate that the palace servants lifted the golden cover and walked around the palace to let the guests see more clearly.

Everyone looked up and saw it clearly, and couldn't help but be disappointed.

That thing that looks like moldy flour, is it the treasure that the queen said?
Mrs. Ding covered her mouth and smiled softly: "I thought it was some kind of treasure that would conquer the country, but it turned out to be just a pile of dirt."

Lady A: "Your Highness, what is this?"

Queen: "This thing is called 'cement' and can be used to pave roads, build bridges, and build houses... The clean house you went to earlier was built with this thing."

Mrs. E: "From this point of view, it is indeed a treasure. It's a pity that it's not our turn to worry about this kind of construction." Obviously, these ladies and ladies here are not aware of the huge value of cement.

Just because it looks ordinary and does not have the jewels and jewels that a baby should have, it is not taken seriously.

The queen couldn't help but be a little disappointed, but she still told her the original plan.

"I plan to open a shop outside the palace to sell these things. Is there anyone willing to run it with me?"

As soon as she said this, she aroused unanimous opposition and even ridicule from everyone.

"Your Highness, you are the mother of a country. How can you act like a merchant and compete for profits with the people? How unworthy is this?"

"That's right. If word of this gets out, people from other countries may laugh at us in Dayong, saying that we have a merchant queen here."

"Tsk, I was originally wondering why the queen would invite us to see the baby. It turns out she wants us to pay for her to open a shop."

"This is the first time in history that I have heard that the Queen is going to open a shop to sell things. Could it be that His Majesty has short-changed her food and drink allowance?"

"She really got into Qian'er's eyes. If word spreads, Dayong's face will be completely humiliated by her."

Lin Xi glanced coldly at those who spoke ill of the queen, moved her fingers slightly, and ejected pills from her fingertips.

Those pills hit their hair accurately under the influence of internal force.

The pill was no bigger than a mung bean and did not attract their attention at all. They denounced and laughed at the queen without realizing it.

Relying on the law, he did not blame everyone, and also relying on the queen who did not dare to do anything to them just because of a few words.

Unfortunately, what they don't know is that they will soon pay a heavy price for what they said.

The queen did not take these people's words to heart. Her purpose was very clear, to find someone to partner with to share the risks that the cement plant might face in the future.

However, she is not someone who is easy to bully but refuses to retaliate when scolded.

"As far as I know, Mrs. Zhao privately runs a cosmetics shop, a silk and satin shop, and a gold and silver jewelry shop. How can I have the nerve to accuse me of competing with the people for profit?"

"Whether other countries will laugh at me, Dayong, does not depend on whether I, the queen, do business as a merchant. As long as my country, Dayong, is strong, let alone opening a shop, other countries will not have the guts to say anything even if I am in charge of government. One sentence."

"You ladies are elegant and noble, but don't you yourselves know what you rely on to maintain your elegance and nobleness? The clothes you wear, the piano you play, and the incense you smoke, none of them were sold to you by the merchants you despise. of?"

……

The queen is not only excellent in swordsmanship, but she is also not inferior to others when it comes to talking.

A man's words quarrel with a group of women, and those who speak are speechless.

As the queen's number one supporter, Mrs. Zuo Xiang said: "Your Highness is right! You all despise merchants here, but which one of you does not run a shop privately and compete with the people for profit?
"It's really shameless to look down on merchants while doing business."

"Wei! You——"

Wei Shi, the wife of Zuo Xiang, said: "What should I do? Am I right?"

He turned around and saluted the Queen, "Your Highness, I am willing to run the shop with you."

The queen nodded with a smile: "Okay, Bai Wei, give Mrs. Wei a copy of the deed."

After Mrs. Wei, Mrs. Pei also stood up to express support.

Then several more ladies expressed their opinions.

They may not really want to work with the queen, but their husbands are staunch emperor party members, so naturally they can only follow their husbands and wives and become the queen party members.

It doesn't cost much to open a shop. They just use some of their own money.
