After traveling through time, I married the prince by signing in

Chapter 346: If you are poor, you should take care of yourself; if you are rich, you should help the

After she left, King Qiong looked at Xiao Lele and asked, "Do you know who it is?"

Xiao Lele shook her head, "I don't know. The bad guy just said that I was blocking someone's way. Just when he was about to commit the crime, the Crown Princess arrived."

Whose way is blocked?

King Qiong's eyes were dark and unclear.

Then, the palace steward ran in.

"Your Highness, someone claiming to be the Crown Princess asked me to give this to you."

King Qiong took it and opened it. When he saw the contents on the paper, he closed his eyes.

"Le Le, I'm sorry. Today's disaster is all because of me."

"You take a rest first. I will take you back to the palace later and apologize to Minister Xiao."

"I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter."

Xiao Lele nodded and followed the maid to the guest room to rest.

But it is not suitable for her to go back now, as she is afraid that her father and mother will worry.

Prince Qiong did not enter the palace with the evidence, but went to East Lane and got the information he wanted before entering the palace.

After talking with Emperor Zhao for a long time, he returned home.

Seeing the girl sleeping soundly on the couch, they had only met a few times since the first time they met.

I can’t say I like her, I just feel that she is different from other girls.

Funny, lively, and slow to react were his first impressions of her.

Since you promised me to be your wife, I will definitely protect you.

Yuanman returned to Lexiangshan and took out the evidence of the system reward.

Looking at the evidence, I took a deep breath.

Hui Chengyuan came in and looked surprised when he saw what was on the table.

"Is this what you just went out to get?"

Yuan Man nodded, "How was the talk with Master Chu going?"

Hui Chengyuan picked up the testimony on the table and said, "Jinnan agreed with him."

"These things, even if they can't get the Sima family to be exterminated, at least they can get rid of his entire family."

"What are you going to do?"

Yuan Man pondered for a moment, "Emperor Zhao needs some evidence to overturn the case of the general, right? Then give it to him."

"I heard that he has sent someone to investigate the assassination attempt on Qi Ming Jie."

"It just happens to be an opportunity. Just arrange for someone to pass it on."

"Have someone make a copy just in case."

Hui Chengyuan nodded, "I'll let Ling Feng arrange it. He has people who know how to do this."

"Will the stakes for entering the palace tomorrow be lowered?"

Yuan Man shook his head, "No, it's good for us anyway."

"After we finish talking, we can almost leave Ningcheng."

"Aren't you going to wait for Yanbei to build his mansion?" Hui Chengyuan held her in his arms.

Yuan Man relaxed in his arms, "No more waiting."

"The more reluctant we are, the more we have to let him go. He has his own life, and we can't protect him forever."

"Besides, he has Jinnan watching over him, so I feel relieved."

"Then let Hele help keep an eye on it."

"The road has been paved, it depends on how they want to go."

The next day, before Hui Chengyuan and Yuan Man entered the palace, they heard that Princess Xixia had been stripped of her title.

Princess Chang and Marquis Changsheng were both implicated and sentenced to reflect on their mistakes behind closed doors for three months.

Prince Heng was also punished, although it was not made clear whether or not this was related to the incident.

But he was fined, which means he was also involved in the matter.

Hearing the news, Yuan Man raised his eyebrows.

Of course, she had read Yuan Yi's confession to King Qiong.

He did not identify King Heng, so it seemed that he had investigated it himself.

I didn't expect him to move so quickly.

Apart from anything else, there should be no problem in protecting Xiao Lele.

When they entered the palace at 15:30, Prince Qiong just came out of the palace with Xiao Lele.

King Qiong looked at the carriage driving into the palace, then looked at Xiao Lele and said, "Let's go. I'll take you back first."

Xiao Lele also watched the carriage until it drove away.

"No need, my lord. I can go back by myself. You go ahead and do your work."

Then he bowed and walked towards the carriage at the palace gate.

Although Prince Qiong was very polite and considerate, for some reason, she was afraid of him.

She knew very well what she was thinking, and she could never hide anything from him.

Therefore, before getting married, try to have as little contact as possible.

King Qiong looked at her small steps. They were small but exceptionally fast.

She chuckled and motioned for the guards to follow her and take her back to the mansion.

Emperor Zhao read the contract Hui Chengyuan gave him and looked at Yuan Man in surprise.

"Has the Crown Princess already reached an agreement with the Tongzhou Xingyuan Escort Agency and the Qinhe Chamber of Commerce?"

Yuan Man nodded, "Of course, it's clearly written in the contract."

"If Emperor Zhao wants to see the contract I signed with them, I can bring it in later."

"My people will come to Zhao soon to inspect the traded goods. Your Majesty, please ask the Emperor Zhao to arrange for them."

Emperor Zhao looked at the contract on the table, pointed to the tax clause and said, "Crown Princess, are you sure you want to pay 20% of the tax?"

The State of Zhao only paid 10% of its commercial tax, and some people even evaded taxes.

Compared with the taxes levied by the people, the proportion of commercial taxes paid in Zhao State was not as high as the taxes levied by the people.

Yuan Man nodded. "Merchants seek profit, they make money with their brains, farmers are pragmatic, they make money with their labor."

“Neither is easy.”

"But in comparison, businessmen will gain more than farmers."

"And the reason why I am willing to raise taxes by 10% is because it is easier for me than for them."

"What are the conditions for this 20%?" Emperor Zhao didn't think that she would increase taxes by 10% just because she made money easily.

One percent of tax revenue may not seem like much, but it amounts to a lot over a year.

Trade is for the benefit of the people, and the other party is willing to increase taxes and give 10% of the profits to the national treasury.

So, it is impossible that there is no cost at all.

Yuanman smiled.

"Open a house for Jinxuan."

"He is now King Jing, so it is not against the rules to open a government office."

Emperor Zhao frowned, "Just to open a mansion for the Sixth Master?"

Yuan Man nodded, "Yes, this is one of them."

"Second, if you are poor, you should take care of yourself; if you are rich, you should help the world."

"There is not much I can do. I hope that during the peace agreement, the four nations will be peaceful and prosperous."

This is her true thought.

No one wants to see the battlefield littered with bones and ruins.

The people were in misery and suffering.

Emperor Zhao was stunned.

Whether it was sincere or fake, this kind of courage was something that many men did not have.

Emperor Zhao looked at Hui Chengyuan with eyes full of envy and jealousy.

How come Hui Chengyuan is so lucky? If the Crown Princess was from Zhao State, there would be no need to worry about him always being at the last place.

Yuan Man continued, "As for the matter of the shelter, I have already sent a message to have someone come over."

"It's just that you need to provide the land yourself. Otherwise, if I buy it, this shelter will belong to me."

Emperor Zhao nodded, "I will have someone choose a location, and I will send a list to the Crown Princess when the time comes."

Next, Hui Chengyuan began to talk with Emperor Zhao.

After all, in addition to trade, they can also discuss diplomatic relations between the two countries.
