Chapter 45: Sister Confession is a trap

Early morning.

Jiang Tian was woken up by a sharp knock on the door.

When I opened the door, I found that it was Xiao Tao who came.

Without waiting for her to ask, Xiao Tao pulled her out, "Jiang Tian, the prince is looking for you, you come with me to see him." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly found that Jiang Tian was still wearing underwear.

immediately pushed her into the house and washed up quickly.

Waiting for Jiang Tian to rush to the study.

Dong Lu Ziheng was already waiting a little impatiently.

Seeing this, Mo Yang was about to ask Xiao Ding to call someone.

Jiang Tian was already carrying his skirt and rushing towards this side quickly at a speed of 100 meters.

After entering the house, he knelt hard, didn't care about the pain in his knees, and hurriedly spoke: "Lord, the slave is late, I beg the prince to calm his anger!" ”

Donglu Ziheng turned his head to look at Jiang Tian's slightly messy hair.

The expression between the eyebrows softened a lot.

The uneasiness that hung in my heart also settled down.

He finally made up his mind to recognize Jiang Tian as his sister-in-law.

Don't be timid at this time.

"Moyang, you lead people to step down, I have something to say to Jiang Tian."

Yes? Before Jiang Tian could react, Mo Yang had already left with someone.

I also closed the door before leaving.

In an instant, only Jiang Tian and Donglu Ziheng were left in the house.

The atmosphere became a little awkward at this moment.

Jiang Tian even felt that the room was a little frighteningly quiet.

To be honest, even though she has been here for more than half a year and often spends time alone with Donglu Ziheng, she is not used to the murderous aura that he often exudes, intentionally or unintentionally.

Donglu Ziheng looked at Jiang Tian's expression before and after.

He wanted to speak, but his mind went blank as he spoke.

I don't know how long it has been.

Jiang Tian only felt that his knees were getting more and more painful, and his calves were numb.

In the end, she couldn't help but ask boldly: "I don't know what the prince ordered to call the slave maid?" ”

“…… Uh, that, this Jiang Tian, I, I, you, I-" Dong Lu Ziheng was so nervous that his tongue began to knot.

I didn't say anything for a long time.

So he began to take a few sharp breaths.

Because the pumping sound was too loud, Jiang Tian was so frightened that he thought that he was cursing, and the moment he raised his head in a panic, he met his blood-stained red eyes.

"Lord Wang." Jiang Tian wasn't sure where he was uncomfortable, so he looked at him for a few seconds and then continued to ask, "Lord Wang, are you unwell?" ”

The concerned eyes fell on Dong Lu Ziheng's eyes, and he quickly avoided her gaze, "No." I'm fine. ”

Shortly after he finished speaking, his stomach gurgled uncontrollably.

Hearing his stomach growling, Jiang Tian remembered that he hadn't gotten up late today to make breakfast for him.

I guess he's going to be hungry by now.

"Lord, the slave promises that she will never oversleep in the future, and the slave will go to cook for you. I implore the prince to allow the slaves and maids to retreat first. ”

As soon as he heard that Jiang Tian was leaving, Dong Lu Ziheng hurriedly turned around, and on the roof, Mo Yang was anxious when he saw this scene.

Last night he wrote a message to the prince.

He didn't memorize it all.

Why can't I say a word now?

Say it!

He was really anxious.

He was so excited that he unconsciously made some noises.

Donglu Ziheng and Jiang Tian in the house heard the movement at the same time, and the two of them looked at the top of their heads.

Xu was disturbed by Mo Yang like this, and Donglu Ziheng suddenly stopped being nervous.

He sighed, "...... That Jiang Tian, I want to recognize you as a righteous sister. ”

"Ahh Even if Jiang Tian had known about this for a long time, it was still extremely shocking to hear it with his own ears.

She didn't think about it and asked, "Why?" ”

After asking, he realized that he didn't need to be humble, and hurriedly changed his tone, "Please forgive the prince, the slave has a low status and does not dare to climb high." ”

Donglu Ziheng heard Jiang Tian's answer, and recalled in his mind what Mo Yang reminded him last night: "Lord Wang, you proposed to recognize Jiang Tian as a righteous sister, her first reaction must not even think about rejecting you directly, but don't worry, you can tell her like this......"

Thinking of this, Donglu Ziheng spoke: "Jiang Tian, the people of the entire Qingxuan say that my fiefdom Yecheng is prosperous and rich, but no one knows that the taxes we pay every year are three times that of other places, and the former emperor recruited me into the palace, saying that the treasury is short of silver this year, and I will collect an additional profit of one percent in the silver mine......

One percent profit!

I'll go.

Jiang Tian knew that there were many silver mines in Yecheng, and most of the people were miners.

Not to mention that mineral deposits are non-renewable resources, they are gone after digging.

As far as the mining disaster is concerned, there is no way to avoid it.

In addition, farming did not make money by mining in Yecheng.

Over time, not many people were willing to cultivate food.

So the old prince came up with a way, where the family has good land to grow grain, 20 years of taxes will be exempted, and silver money will be rewarded according to the annual yield per mu......

That's why many farmers are willing to farm.

But herein lies the problem.

There are 100,000 people in Yecheng, and the taxes of the 10,000 acres of land that are exempted have to be paid by the royal government.

The main source of the royal government's income came from the sale of silver mines......

If the emperor wants to increase the profit of the silver mine in the future.

Then the extra profit will have to be Donglu Ziheng to find a way to balance the income and expenditure.

"Jiang Tian, I know that I shouldn't put these responsibilities on you, but I really can't help it, I have to pay all the taxes to the treasury at the end of next spring, and there are still more than 5 months left before now. If you can help me earn 500,000 taels of silver in five months, I'll give you back your freedom!" ”

Hearing this, Jiang Tian's eyes widened unconsciously.

Was she dreaming or was it all true.

Could it be that she heard the prayer to God every night.

That's great.

There is still a month and a half to go before the Chinese New Year.

Chinese New Year is the most profitable time.

She definitely wants to take this opportunity.

Donglu Ziheng originally thought that this trick would not work.

However, I saw the smile on the corner of Jiang Tian's mouth.

The number of insecurities in my heart is gone.

In this way, he told Jiang Tian the details, and showed her the contract he had drawn up last night.

After Jiang Tian took it, he saw the first one: "During this period, Jiang Tian must call himself the righteous sister of this king......"

"Lord Wang, the slave has signed it." After Jiang Tian pressed the handprint, he thought that he could stay away from the villain of Donglu Ziheng and the imperial city.

I was so excited.

It wasn't until he saw Jiang Tian far away that Mo Yang jumped off the roof.

"Lord Wang, quick, let me see." Mo Yang snatched the deed in his hand.

After seeing Jiang Tian's name and handprints clearly, I was very excited.

"Lord Wang, with this deed, you can rest assured, Jiang Tian definitely didn't expect that she signed a marriage letter, and the invisible ink effect from the Western Regions is really good......"

Mo Yang's voice was so loud that Dong Lu Ziheng hurriedly closed the door.

After all, this thing has been done in a dishonorable manner.

But he also wanted to leave a way back.

In case Jiang Tian can really earn 500,000 taels of silver in five months.

If she wants to leave then, he can keep her.

"But Lord Wang, I don't think I'm underestimating Jiang Tian's ability. How do I think she can earn 500,000 taels of silver in less than five months? If that's the case, when the time comes, when she is leaving, do you really want to take out the marriage certificate and tie her up? ”
