The maid reminded him, "Now that the prince has been confirmed as a disciple of the Huangquan Sect, your chance has come. The Taiping Blessed Land has a chance to fall into your hands. As long as you operate well, with the opportunity of the Taiping Blessed Land, you may even be made the crown princess."
The eldest princess' eyes lit up.
In a world where one can practice cultivation, gender is not that important. The most important thing is always strength.
As long as you are strong enough, whether you are a man or a woman, you can suppress others and make them unable to raise their heads.
For example, Fairy Linglong.
There is little sexism in this world, and strength is the biggest criterion.
The eldest princess has an advantage that other princes and princesses do not have:
She is an outer disciple of Danqing Pavilion.
Because of this relationship, it is very easy for her to communicate with Cao Ziming and Ji Changsheng.
However, the eldest princess did not immediately ask for the Taiping blessed land.
"Please invite Mr. Lin here. I want to ask for advice."
"Yes."
After a while.
A scholar holding a feather fan appeared in front of the princess.
"Your Highness, Lin congratulates Your Highness."
The princess invited Mr. Lin to sit down, and after she had some tea, she asked, "Mr. Lin, what brings you joy?"
Mr. Lin smiled and said, "The Crown Prince's identity has been exposed, and the Eastern Palace is vacant immediately. The other princes and princesses will have an opportunity immediately. Whoever can properly handle the current situation will win the favor of His Majesty and smoothly enter the Eastern Palace. And Your Highness is the most suitable person to handle this matter. I believe His Majesty will think so, so Your Highness's opportunity to ascend to the sky will come soon."
The princess asked cautiously, "Sir, do you think this is a good opportunity?"
"Of course." Mr. Lin said firmly, "The prince's position was previously stable, and the other princes and princesses had no chance at all. And now, with the death of the prince, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If Your Highness misses this opportunity, it will be difficult for you to ascend to the throne again in the future."
The princess did not get excited. She remained calm: "Sir, if you want to handle this incident well, you must handle the subsequent troubles of 'Taiping Fudi'. Regarding this matter, can Mr. Lin teach me?"
Mr. Lin pointed out: "Fudi is the most important source of treasury income for our Sheng country. It is related to the national economy and people's livelihood, and even more to the connections behind the major Fudi merchants. Your Highness, as long as you stand with these Fudi merchants, they will be your biggest supporters. If all these people support you, then His Majesty will not be able to shake your position. As for the opinions of the people, you don't need to care about them. They can't decide anything."
The princess nodded slightly: "Of course, we don't need to care about the opinions of the people, but Ji Changsheng seems to want to do good deeds and rectify the business of Fudi. How should I deal with it?"
Mr. Lin laughed: "Ji Changsheng is daydreaming. Even among the major immortal sects, only Xuandu Temple can ignore the blessed land business. One of the biggest sources of income for other sects is the sale of blessed land. Your Highness, he wants to die, we can't follow him."
"Of course I won't follow Ji Changsheng in offending others, but Ji Changsheng is now the representative of Xuandu Temple after all. He didn't even give face to Fairy Linglong. If I don't give him an explanation on the matter of 'Taiping Fudi', will he give me this face?" The eldest princess said worriedly.
It has to be said that Ji Changsheng's image of being upright and righteous has been successfully established throughout the world.
No one doubted Ji Changsheng's just stance.
Neither the Princess nor Mr. Lin had any doubts.
But Mr. Lin didn't take it seriously.
"Your Highness, what if Ji Changsheng doesn't give you face? After all, he is a disciple of Xuandu Temple. We must follow evidence and rules when doing things. We cannot punish without teaching. To deal with such righteous disciples, as long as we do everything legally and reasonably within the procedures, they can't do anything to us even if they don't like it. Ji Changsheng attacked the prince because he was a disciple of Huangquan Sect. Your Highness, you are a disciple of Danqing Pavilion. Is it possible that Ji Changsheng will attack you? There is no need to worry at all."
After receiving Mr. Lin's advice, the eldest princess was completely relieved and a smile appeared on her face.
"Sir, you are right. I am an outer disciple of Danqing Pavilion and have nothing to do with the Demon Cult. As a disciple of Xuandu Temple, even if Ji Changsheng does not accept my treatment of the 'Taiping Blessed Land', it will not affect me. He will stay in Shengguo for a year at most, but those blessed land merchants have to stay in Shengguo forever. We really can't offend a local tiger for a dragon that has crossed the river."
"Your Highness is wise, but we still have to give face to Ji Changsheng. Your Highness can just pretend to be nice."
"Please give me some advice, sir."
"In fact, there is nothing new. Just use the most commonly used nonsense literature. You can come up with some content without any substance to appease the people and show your kindness. For example, reduce the proportion of spiritual stones they prepay for the first time from 30% to 20% or even 10%, to ensure that those people can afford to buy the blessed land, and then let them pay more interest to the bank later."
At this point, Mr. Lin laughed and said, "Anyway, the banks are all run by the imperial court, and Your Highness has a stake in them. Such a measure will benefit the country and the people, and Fudi Merchants will not suffer any loss. You can get more, so why not do it?"
"My sir is better than a hundred thousand soldiers!"
The eldest princess was sincerely convinced.
"Help me change my clothes. I need to go see my father."
Half a day later.
The eldest princess took over the "Taiping Paradise".
And he went to visit Ji Changsheng in person.
"Elder Ji, my father is very angry about the Crown Prince's matter and has ordered the Six Gates to conduct a thorough investigation. If we find any more disciples of the Huangquan Sect lurking in the court, we will not tolerate them."
The eldest princess' tone was very serious.
Ji Changsheng chuckled.
It was too formal for the Sheng Kingdom's court to order the Six Gates to investigate the Huangquan Sect.
Ji Changsheng absolutely believed that the Six Gates would not be able to find out anything.
But he was too lazy to pursue it.
This is not important.
He came to Sheng Country not to hunt down the disciples of Huangquan Sect, but to do good deeds and accumulate virtue.
"Your Highness, Princess, please tell me about the 'Taiping Fudi'." Ji Changsheng went straight to the point: "I heard from Senior Brother Cao that after the Crown Prince's death, you will be responsible for handling the aftermath of the Taiping Fudi?"
"Correct."
The eldest princess nodded and explained, "My father entrusted this matter to me."
After a pause, the princess added her identity information very seriously: "I have joined Danqing Pavilion before. Although I was not able to enter the inner sect due to my talent, my father still trusts me and believes that I can reach a consensus with Senior Brother Cao and Elder Ji."
What this means is that we are family and can discuss things easily.
Ji Changsheng was very considerate and he had always been a very polite person.
"So, Your Highness is still a disciple of Danqing Pavilion. I am so sorry." Ji Changsheng sincerely got to know the princess again, and then returned to the topic: "I think that with the purpose of Danqing Pavilion, Your Highness will definitely sympathize with the people and give them a fair explanation."
"It's natural."
The eldest princess accepted all of Ji Changsheng's praise.
"Elder Ji, I already know your idea and I have received your suggestion. If I understand correctly, you want the first batch of guests who bought Taiping Fudi to move back in, right?"
"Of course, this is the treatment they deserve." Ji Changsheng said, "I have restored the spiritual environment of Taiping Fudi. They spent money, so they should enjoy the corresponding services."
Although the price is still high, they basically buy it voluntarily when they first buy it.
Ji Changsheng took a step back and didn't pursue the past. He was satisfied as long as these people could live there peacefully.
Ji Changsheng felt that he was really too kind.
The eldest princess seemed to agree with Ji Changsheng's proposal.
"Elder Ji is kindhearted, and I admire him. I agree with what Elder Ji said. Since the first batch of guests of Taiping Fudi have already spent money, they should enjoy the spiritual environment of the Fudi."
A smile appeared on Ji Changsheng's face: "Your Highness is wise."
It seems that killing a chicken to scare the monkey is indeed useful.
Killing a prince will make the next person in charge much easier to talk to.
"What are the specific arrangements, Your Highness?" Ji Changsheng asked.
The princess said, "Just follow what Elder Ji said and let them use the price Sheng Taiping paid to buy back their blessed land as a prepayment of spirit stones, and they can directly buy back the original blessed land."
"and many more."
The smile on Ji Changsheng's face disappeared instantly.
He grasped the point very keenly.
"Prepayment of spirit stones?"
The princess nodded and said, "Yes, these guests only need to use the repurchased spirit stones that Sheng Taiping gave them as prepaid spirit stones to buy back again. I will not charge them any extra spirit stones to avoid burdening them."
Ji Changsheng smiled: "You are a very nice person. Shouldn't they thank you?"
The princess said modestly: "It is all thanks to Elder Ji. I have only made a small contribution to help these guests reduce their burden."
"Your Highness, do you think what they lack is prepaid spirit stones?" Ji Changsheng asked.
The princess explained, "Elder Ji, perhaps you don't understand enough. In fact, our Sheng Kingdom is very humane. We allow guests who purchase blessed land to pay off all the outstanding debts within 60 years. And the interest rate is very low. This is a welfare specially formulated to take care of the people of Sheng Kingdom. In this way, these guests don't have much financial pressure, and they can successfully move into the blessed land they like. You have also successfully helped them. Isn't it the best of both worlds?"
Ji Changsheng asked seriously: "Your Highness, can we discuss this further?"
The princess nodded and said, "Of course, for Elder Ji's sake, I can allow these people to move into Taiping Blessed Land directly without paying the advance spiritual stones. As long as the interest is paid on time every month, the court will take it as a loss and make special arrangements for Elder Ji's sake."
Ji Changsheng looked up to the sky and sighed.
"I didn't want to expose your identity, but since you are shameless, don't blame me. Witch girl, you are clearly a disciple of the Heavenly Demon Sect, and you dare to tarnish the reputation of Danqing Pavilion. Senior Brother Cao, close the door and slay the demons!"
Chapter 71: Witch, Don't Try to Quibble
Cao Ziming failed to react again.
After all, this was only the first day he and Ji Changsheng knew each other.
Having just killed the crown prince of Sheng State, he has not yet adapted to Ji Changsheng's efficiency of action.
What’s more, I never expected that the evil cult monsters would appear one after another.
The one who was even more confused than him was naturally the eldest princess.
The eldest princess almost thought she was hallucinating.
"Elder Ji, who do you say is the disciple of the Heavenly Demon Sect?"
Ji Changsheng angrily scolded: "Witch, you are still pretending. Don't try to quibble. I can see at a glance that you can't hide the aura of the Heavenly Demon Sect at all."
The next moment, something happened that made Cao Ziming's heart skip a beat.
Behind the eldest princess, a sea of blood suddenly appeared and a bloody murderous aura rose into the sky.
Cao Ziming's face turned pale. He immediately set up a barrier and protected Ji Changsheng behind him.
"It turns out to be a witch from the Heavenly Demon Cult. Junior Brother Ji, be careful."
Although things happened too quickly and Cao Ziming still hasn't reacted to what exactly happened, the aura of the sea of blood cannot be faked, and the bloody aura cannot be faked even more.
Thinking of this, Cao Ziming was filled with hatred: "What's going on with this Sheng Kingdom? Why did the Crown Prince and the Princess both join the Demonic Cult?"
Ji Changsheng looked up to the sky and sighed: "Shengguo is rotten from the root."
The eldest princess looked at Cao Ziming who was on high alert and Ji Changsheng who was compassionate, and her brain was still in a state of shutdown.
In fact, she is not a simple person.
But she is really an outer disciple of Danqing Pavilion and has nothing to do with the Tianmo Sect.
Most importantly, she is truly a civilized person, at least that's what she thinks.
Unlike the Crown Prince, who was a genuine disciple of the Huangquan Sect, the eldest princess had no intention of making things difficult for Ji Changsheng when she came to visit him this time.
She really hopes to reach a consensus with Ji Changsheng.
If everyone takes a step back and saves each other's face, she can then resolve the Taiping Fudi incident and be named Crown Princess for her merits.
The princess understood the intrigues, but she had never seen such things as the Demon Cult being accused without any evidence and being framed by laundry detergent, especially when it happened to her.
So I couldn't react at all.
"Elder Ji, wait, is there some misunderstanding?" The eldest princess still tried to resolve the issue peacefully.
Because until this point, she didn't think Ji Changsheng was slandering her.
Ji Changsheng now has a very strong reputation in the world. He is not afraid of power, is upright and righteous.
Who could have thought that a young hero who dared to confront Linglong Fairy, the strongest person in the world, would frame others?
Only Bai Guanlin would think of this.
Unfortunately, Xiaobai is already dead.
Death has no evidence.
"I have nothing to do with the Heavenly Demon Sect. Senior Brother Cao, my joining the Danqing Pavilion is recorded. My name is on the list of outer disciples."
The eldest princess hopes to resolve this misunderstanding with her sincerity.
What happened on the Xuandu Temple Mountain, especially what involved Ji Changsheng's true character, was well protected by the temple master and did not spread.
