Princess of the auxiliary country

Chapter 393; Birthday banquet invitation

After chatting with her husband about the recent situation for a while, the eldest princess Ningyang did not stay at the house to have a meal.

Nowadays, she has fallen in love with the hot spring villa. She lives a relaxed and comfortable life there. The most important thing is the endless food, which is completely unmatched by the capital.

She originally went there with her daughter-in-law and her grandson, intending to stay for a month or two, but now she has become a permanent resident, and only comes back to the capital occasionally.

Along with the banquets in many circles, now the posts are sent directly to the hot spring villa, which has become the real eldest princess's mansion.

Huo Jingzhi and Huo Jinyan father and son had no objections to this.

Anyway, it's not that far away. Besides, they all like the hot spring villa very much. Whenever they have a vacation, they will go directly to the hot spring villa to stay.

Huo Jingzhi has even decided that when he retires, he will live with his wife and the others in a hot spring villa, where he will grow flowers, drink tea, and spend time with his grandchildren.

Back at the Hot Spring Villa, Princess Ningyang immediately went to find Huo Junyao and told her the news in detail.

Huo Junyao was also quite surprised by this. She never expected that her father actually knew more than she did. You must know that she now has a very huge intelligence network in her hands.

It seems that he really underestimates his father.

But think about it, my father is also the Duke of the country after all, and he is also someone who few people dare to provoke in the court.

If there is no power, it would really be a bit unsatisfactory to just rely on the identity of the royal family.

"I think dad is right. We can't get involved in these matters. We can just leave them to the emperor."

Huo Junyao has always stayed away from the struggle for imperial power.

In the past, she would not have paid attention to whether King Qin would rebel, let alone cared about it. But now, because the business is so big, if the Yu Dynasty becomes turbulent, it will have some impact on her business. influence, so I pay attention to it.

It is convenient to make some preparations in advance to prevent heavy losses when the time comes.

Of course she would listen to her father's words, but this would only prevent Princess Ningyang from getting involved, but she herself could not stay out of the matter.

After all, she has so many businesses, and these businesses are still the foundation of her foundation. She must not make any mistakes, otherwise won't years of hard work be ruined in one day?
The most important point is that this thing is her trump card to confront the imperial power. No matter who becomes the emperor, as long as this trump card is there, the imperial power cannot touch her.

The energy she showed when she deposed the crown prince last time has made many people feel fearful in their hearts. I am afraid that Emperor Zhaowu also regretted his original indulgence.

There is almost no doubt about this. As an emperor, who doesn’t want to be high and in control of everything?
Who would be willing to let go of an existence that could compete with him? Even if he knew that this existence would not affect his rule and would even bring benefits to his rule, it would be wrong to be able to compete with the imperial power.

It's just that Emperor Zhaowu didn't expect her method to be so fast before, and he also underestimated the terrifying power of this energy.

He was also confused by those benefits, but after what happened last time, Emperor Zhaowu must have noticed it in his heart. Even if he didn't take any action now, he would inevitably have some precautions in his heart.

And if Huo Junyao's power is impacted by the King of Qin's incident, then it will be impossible for her to achieve the current scale again, and Emperor Zhaowu will never allow it. And Huo Junyao will not give up either, this is the foundation of her life.

After seeing off the eldest princess Ningyang, Huo Junyao went directly to Wang Xia and asked her to arrange for people to pay attention to any movements in the Qin Prince's Palace and Xuanwu Marquis.

At the same time, she was also asked to notify Fang Zhilan and ask her to use the company's internal channels to deliver the news to shareholders in various places, asking them to come to the capital in two months to attend her birthday party.

Fang Zhilan was stunned when she received the news. In the past, Huo Junyao's birthdays were just a simple family get-together, never a big event.

Why do you suddenly want to do something big this year? And this is just a casual birthday, not a full ten.

"The lady said that the Hot Spring Villa Company has developed well in the past two years and needs to plan its future. She already has some ideas and wants to take this opportunity to meet with all shareholders."

Hearing this, Fang Zhilan showed a look of surprise. It is true that the development of Hot Spring Villa in the past two years has been very good, but the income has begun to show weakness.

Although the loss will not be huge, if there is a good plan and it can continue to shine, naturally we cannot just let it go.

Immediately, she agreed and arranged for someone to deliver the news.

Soon, news of Princess Zhaode’s birthday invitation was received from all over the country.

In the past two years, those shareholders, big and small, have made a lot of money on the big ship of Hot Spring Villa, especially because they are here for the right reasons and don't have to worry about the clean money being targeted by the court.

Transporting a lot of money home, you don't have to worry about being watched, which is much better than sneaking around before.

Even those nobles have become honest now. Their purpose is nothing more than money and power. Now that the money comes from an open source, they already have the foundation for power. Now that they have money to maintain relationships, it is natural. What's good is there.

Just make money safely and securely, and your status will be stable. Didn't you see that in the court now, the emperor no longer competes with the officials of their noble clan?

As long as they can ensure stability and wealth, these nobles will not foolishly challenge the imperial power, let alone replace it.

Although the emperor's position is very good, it has a lot of troubles. I didn't see that the current royal family, the Xiao family, was once a member of the noble family. What kind of life was it like in the past few years?
How frustrating. Others may think that the emperor is good, but people from the gentry do not feel that way.

There is a truth to it: between a century-old imperial power and a millennium-old noble family, who is better? People from the noble family can tell the difference very clearly.

In the past, they loved to make trouble. Wasn't it because they had no money and couldn't maintain the relationship? They had to steal money from the imperial court. Now that they had an honest way to make money, they had already passed the clear path. Naturally, they would not go to the imperial court in front of them.

It is no exaggeration to say that the imperial court has three melons and two dates. Even if the imperial court is rich, it will allocate hundreds of thousands or millions at every turn.

Moreover, there are so many nobles, and in order to unite the front, they all need a share of the pie. When it falls into their own hands, won't they only have three melons and two dates?
Doing this with an eye on the risk zone of losing your head, anyone who is not a fool will know how to choose.

Therefore, these people are still very grateful to Huo Junyao and are willing to have an in-depth friendship with her. As soon as they received the news, they immediately arranged for people to start preparing birthday gifts. This was the first time that Princess Zhaode invited everyone to a birthday banquet. You have to prepare well.
