Quickly wear "I am the empress"

Zhiyu shook her head, "Fifth brother, if you're not used to it, just wear it more and you'll get used to it."

"We are all wearing this kind of fabric. If you wear silk, it will look out of place."

"If you feel itchy, just put on your own underwear and wear this dress outside."

Seeing that Zhiyu insisted on letting him wear this dress, Zhu Youjian had no choice but to agree.

Since everyone is wearing this clothes, there is no reason why he can't wear it.

After leaving the tailor shop, Zhiyu looked at Zhu Youjian for a long while, then bought a cheap wooden hairpin on the street and handed it to him.

"Fifth brother, take off your white jade crown and wear this instead."

Seeing the crudely crafted wooden hairpin in Zhiyu's hand, Zhu Youjian's mouth twitched, and he waved his hands repeatedly to refuse, "Eighth sister, this doesn't look good."

"If you don't want me to wear this white jade crown, then I'll buy a new one."

Wen Yan Zhiyu looked at the wooden hairpin in her hand and said, "It's pretty nice."

"Fifth brother, do you have a problem with your aesthetic sense?"

Zhu Youjian: “……….”

"Eighth sister, this wooden hairpin in your hand is not the most beautiful one in the stall."

Zhiyu shrugged, "But this is the cheapest."

"It's OK if it's cheap, it doesn't matter if it looks good."

Zhu Youjian was speechless for a moment after hearing this: "Eighth sister, although the treasury of our Ming Dynasty is not abundant, there is no need to buy even the cheapest wooden hairpin."

Hearing this, Zhiyu looked at Zhu Youjian disapprovingly, "Fifth brother, what's wrong with being cheap? As long as it's wearable, it's fine."

"You don't wear it every day, why buy an expensive one? You don't know how expensive firewood and rice are if you don't manage the household."

As he said this, Zhiyu clapped his hands and happily decided: "Fifth brother, when the imperial examination is over, you can go to the Ministry of Revenue."

"I'll let you be my host for a few days so you can experience how poor we are."

Seeing that Zhiyu was serious and didn't seem to be joking at all, Zhu Youjian didn't know what he was thinking about, and said silently, "Eighth sister, let's not do this."

"I know you trust me, that's why you want me to go to the Ministry of Revenue to manage the money."

"But... I am a spendthrift and not suitable to be in the Ministry of Revenue."

Zhiyu shook her head and said with a smile: "No, you are suitable to stay in the Ministry of Revenue."

As he spoke, Zhiyu looked at Chen Lingyi behind him with great interest, "When you go back, draft an imperial decree to let my fifth brother take up a post in the Ministry of Revenue."

"After the imperial examination is over, you will go and announce the decree."

Chen Lingyi nodded, "Yes."

Seeing that Zhiyu had made the unilateral decision on this matter, Zhu Youjian's face instantly fell.

"Eighth sister, a member of the Wang clan cannot serve in such an important place as the Six Ministries."

Zhiyu shook his head, "Fifth brother, didn't I already issue an order to abolish the support system for the royal family and let everyone find another way out?"

"Since I have issued this decree, the rules passed down by our ancestors will naturally no longer apply."

As he said this, Zhiyu patted Zhu Youjian on the shoulder and said, "Fifth brother, work hard in the Ministry of Revenue in the future."

When the group arrived in front of a simple inn, Zhiyu stopped.

She turned around and looked at Chen Lingyi behind her. Chen Lingyi nodded at her imperceptibly.

After receiving Chen Lingyi's signal, Zhiyu and Zhu Youjian strode into the inn.

"Boss, is there any room left?"

Chen Lingyi stepped forward and asked the shopkeeper who was fiddling with an abacus out of boredom.

The shopkeeper waved his hand without even looking up, "There's only one superior room left. If you want to stay, pay the money. If not, go somewhere else."

Chen Lingyi looked a little embarrassed when she heard this, "This............"

"Shopkeeper, are there only the best ones?"

"Are there no other rooms?"

The shopkeeper was too lazy to pay attention to Chen Lingyi, "If you don't want to stay, just leave. Don't delay my business."

Hearing this, Chen Lingyi pursed her lips hesitantly, then turned to look at Zhiyu with an embarrassed look.

"Cousin, cousin, there is only one upper room here."

"Or, let's go ask somewhere else."

Hearing this, Zhiyu sighed somewhat dejectedly, "Cousin, how much money do we have left?"

Chen Lingyi lowered her head, stared at the purse on her waist for a while, and sighed, "Our money is only enough to rent a room for ten days."

After hearing this, Zhiyu thought for a moment, and then said firmly: "It is important for Fifth Brother to take part in the imperial examination, so let's decide."

Chen Lingyi frowned, "But..., if we book this room, we will have no money left."

Zhiyu sighed, "If we don't have money, we'll find a way to fight for it."

"No matter what, we have to let Fifth Brother take part in the scientific examination."

Zhu Youjian looked at the two people acting in front of him with a confused look on his face.

What on earth was his sister talking about? When did he need to take the imperial examination? When did the royal family become so poor that they couldn't even afford a room in the upper room?

"Eighth sister..., I am your brother"

Seeing Zhu Youjian speak, Zhiyu quickly grabbed his arm and said in a sad voice: "Fifth brother, don't persuade us."

"Before Mom and Dad passed away, I promised them that I would take good care of you."

"Now that the scientific expedition is imminent, you can live here with peace of mind."

"My cousin and I will go out and find a place to work."

"No matter what, we will earn enough money to pay for your accommodation during the scientific expedition and our travel expenses back home..."

Hearing Zhiyu's words, the innkeeper slowly raised his head and asked, "We are looking for a place to work?"

Zhiyu nodded, "That's right, does the shopkeeper have any recommendations?"

The shopkeeper waved his hand calmly: "It's not a recommendation. Our inn's kitchen is still short of a few odd jobs."

"If you want to work, you can do it here."

Hearing this, Zhiyu excitedly looked at Chen Lingyi, and hurried forward to say gratefully: "Thank you, shopkeeper."

As she spoke, Chen Lingyi seemed to have thought of something and quickly asked, "Boss, we are working here, do we have a place to stay?"

The shopkeeper nodded without even looking up, fiddling with his abacus out of boredom and said, "There's a woodshed, would you like to live there?"

The two nodded and said in unison: "Stop."

As she spoke, Chen Lingyi took off the purse from her waist and said, "Boss, please open a room for my cousin first."

"We'll go to the kitchen to work in a bit."

The shopkeeper took the purse, weighed it in his hand, and then generously asked Zhu Youjian to step forward and ascend the throne.

Zhu Youjian blinked with a confused look on his face, and held the pen for a long time, but could not write anything.

Seeing this, Zhiyu snatched the brush from his hand and wrote a name on the paper: Li Wuniu.

Seeing this name, Zhu Youjian collapsed, "Eighth sister, this..., I........."

Seeing that Zhu Youjian was so anxious that he was a little incoherent, Zhiyu blinked, patted his head and said suddenly: "Fifth brother, everyone usually calls you Wu Niu, Wu Niu, I almost forgot that you have a proper name."

"I'll write your proper name on it,"

As he spoke, Zhiyu scribbled a new name next to Li Wuniu, Li Xingchen.
