The only favorite concubine: Prince, no

Chapter 89 Nice
Li Chuchu looked up at the sky, which was blue and boundless, and then looked down at the long and winding river not far away.The river water is clear, and occasionally a few small fish can be seen frolicking in the river with their tails swaying.And beside the river, there are some unknown small flowers blooming, and occasionally there are butterflies fluttering among them.Li Chuchu felt that Ye Lingxu was constantly refreshing her impression of him.People who can find such secluded places to fish on a sunny day are either arty or hidden.Obviously Ye Lingxu is not that kind of arty person, so there is only another possibility.

Seeing her standing still, Yan Mo kindly reminded her, "His Royal Highness King Qin likes fishing very much. He can ask you to meet at this place, which shows that he still values ​​you very much. You should do well and don't let me down." I have received the great love of His Highness King Qin." Li Chuchu nodded with a smile, and walked down the winding river.After walking for a short distance, Li Chuchu saw Ye Lingxu from a distance, wearing light clothes, sitting upright on a stone by the river, holding a fishing rod in his hand. At the end there is a thin line hanging straight on the river.Under the sunlight, his indifferent and lonely voice was elongated by the light, and it was stained with a blurred golden color, making him look majestic and unapproachable.She pursed her lips and walked softly to the river.He picked a clean stone and sat down.

Ye Lingxu squinted his eyes, turned around slowly, his eyes as deep as black and orange squinted treacherously, holding the fishing rod with his slender fingers, and said lightly, "Yi Lan has already reported to the king what you have done. I did. I didn't expect you to be smart. This king asked you to take down Ye Chenshuo first, but you were able to use Yechenshuo's other women to take him down, and you were able to escape unscathed. Yes, it's not easy!" It's rare to be praised by a man like Ye Lingxu, Li Chuchu was somewhat moved in her heart, but she still hid her joy well on her face.She curled her mouth and looked at the fishing rod on the river with a smile, "His Royal Highness, you are not taking the bait like Jiang Taigong, are you?"

Ye Lingxu closed his eyes and kept silent, "No! The first person to fish with a straight hook is called originality, the second and third one is called arty imitation. Since I can't do the first If you are alone, be more mundane and be a utilitarian fisherman. Catching the most fish in the shortest time is what I should do." Li Chuchu twitched the corners of her mouth, bent slightly, and said with a smile, " His Royal Highness King Qin is very pragmatic." Ye Lingxu stared at her coldly, with a strange atmosphere, "I am an ordinary person. It is normal for ordinary people to do ordinary things." Li Chuchu was embarrassed, but Ye Lingxu was still It's really hard to talk.Seeing what he said to her, she didn't know what to do next. Since she couldn't answer, she simply started a new story and asked, "What's the important thing that your lord asked me to come here today?" Can't come to see you?" Ye Lingxu raised his eyebrows and asked unhappily.

"No, of course I don't mean that, I'm just... just curious. Since the prince is a layman, he likes to do things well in the shortest time. Then you... invite me to come here today Didn’t you want me to watch you fish or let me catch butterflies?” Ye Lingxu’s eagle eyes were cold, staring at the sparkling river, and said quietly, “That’s right, my king invited you here today , I have something important to ask for your help." "Can I help?" Li Chuchu raised her eyebrows and stared at Ye Lingxu in disbelief.Although her treatment in the palace seems to have improved now, she cannot intervene in Ye Chenshuo's affairs for the time being.She didn't know, what could Ye Lingxu ask her for help?Ye Lingxu directly ignored the doubt in her eyes, lowered her long eyelashes, and returned calmly, "The officials in southern Xinjiang wrote a letter saying that this year's weather is abnormal. There has only been one rainstorm in southern Xinjiang since the beginning of spring. With light rain, most of the crops in the field dried up and died. Now even people’s drinking water is almost a problem. And the worst thing is that there are already plagues in several small counties in southern Xinjiang. Now the officials there are writing a letter , asking the imperial court for disaster relief."

Hearing this kind of news, Li Chuchu frowned, drooped her eyes for a moment, and asked, "Then how can His Highness King Qin say I can help?" Although she doesn't have much ability, since Ye Lingxu came to her, then It proves that Ye Lingxu thinks she can handle things well.She is a selfish person, and she will not do things that harm herself and benefit others on weekdays.But things in southern Xinjiang are an exception. Drought and plague, these two natural disasters are a devastating blow to southern Xinjiang.If she can do something for the people there, she can still do her best.Ye Lingxu glanced at her again, a trace of melancholy appeared on his handsome and innocent face, and he sneered evilly, "The emperor received the memorial and threw it in the court angrily. Officials in southern Xinjiang asked for money. How can the imperial court provide money. But if there is no money to provide disaster relief, the people there will have to wait to die. You said that if you were the emperor, what would you do at this time?"

Li Chuchu bowed her head and meditated for a while, and when she looked up again, a shrewd gleam flashed in her eyes, "If I were the emperor, and I couldn't afford the money myself, then I would ask those rich businessmen in the private sector to get it." Money." She read a lot of books, and the kings have always emphasized agriculture and suppressed business.But even with such a policy, those businessmen are still good at drilling, and their money is still innumerable.Of course, those in power usually turn a blind eye to these businessmen.However, if it comes to a disaster year or special circumstances, the money of these wealthy businessmen and wealthy households will definitely be targeted by those in power, commonly known as "killing chickens for the New Year".Just like Wang Feng.Wang Feng is the eldest son and grandson of the Wang family.When he and Li Xueman came to Prince Jing's mansion, Ye Chenshuo specially treated them grandly. The reason was naturally not because Ye Chenshuo cherished talents, but because of the Wang family standing behind Wang Feng.If Ye Chenshuo wants to become emperor one day, then with the backing of the Wang family, he will naturally have more money on hand.

"That's right." Ye Lingxu hooked his lips evilly, "The emperor has now set his sights on those rich businessmen in the private sector. Then guess again, which rich businessman will the emperor start with first?" Since Ye Chen If Shuo can come to her, it must be the Wang family. "The Wang family," she replied calmly.Ye Lingxu raised his eyebrows coldly, and a faint smile curled up on the corner of his mouth, "You are right. However, things are still a bit troublesome. In recent years, those big families in Youzhou City have followed the lead of the Wang family. The current Wang family They seem to be representatives of merchants in the entire country. The emperor asked them to pay this time. The Wang family has already sent someone to say that they will send people to southern Xinjiang to deliver supplies in private. As for the money in the court, they will also donate symbolically Some, but not all. With the Wang family, merchants all over the country have followed suit. The disaster relief money has not come down yet." "The Wang family is really arrogant." Li Chuchu heard Ye Lingxu Speaking of this, he couldn't help but interrupted.

Ye Lingxu raised his eyebrows, two slight wrinkles appeared, and his dark eyes narrowed accordingly, "The emperor has issued an order, whoever can persuade the Wang family will be credited, and there will be other A reward." When Ye Lingxu said this, he burst into laughter again, his eyes and lips filled with infinite sarcasm. "Yechenshuo may have already started to act. Maybe when you go back, he will put you directly in the carriage and take you to the Wang's house." The woman who despises herself in ordinary times is humble, but now Seeing that he could do well with his own woman, he started to praise his woman again.This is his younger brother Ye Chenshuo.Like her mother, he never knew how to give charcoal in a timely manner, and only praised people who were superior and inferior.

Li Chuchu stared blankly at her beautiful eyes, shook her head slightly, and denied Ye Lingxu's words, "This should be impossible. My relationship with Li Xueman is very bad. And as far as I know, Li Xueman didn't ask me for it last time." Coincidentally, Liu Qianqian hadn't had much contact with her anymore. So even if Ye Chenshuo really pushed me into the carriage and took me to the Wang family, the Wang family would neither give me face nor Ye Chen It's a face-saving."
