Before the second prince could find an excuse to leave, his actions were known to Liu Qingshao and Xiao Hanyin.

When Xiao Hanyin left the imperial city, he was worried that the second prince would stumble behind his back.

Although he has always pretended to be very low-key, it is impossible for a truly ambitious person to completely hide his heart.

The second prince thought that he could deceive everyone, but in fact, Xiao Hanyin had long been suspicious of him.

In order to avoid trouble for the second prince to find Liu Qingshao when he was not in the imperial city, Xiao Hanyin sent the best secret guard with the best martial arts around him to keep an eye on his whereabouts.

At the same time, he and Liu Qingshao's business in the imperial city is doing well, and they and the prince are everywhere.

When the second prince went to his henchmen and advisers in private, Xiao Hanyin already knew about it.

At that time, he was on the defensive.

Therefore, when the news came from the imperial city, he immediately told Liu Qingshao about it.

"You mean that the second prince may come to Jinju in person?" Liu Qingshao was shocked, "As a prince, he shouldn't be able to leave the imperial city without permission, right?" ”

"The second prince is so thoughtful, as long as it is what he wants to do, few people can stop it!" Finding an excuse to leave the Imperial City was really too simple for him.

"The emperor knows that he has ambitions for the throne, why doesn't he want to pull out his minions?" Liu Qingshao felt that the emperor was acting very contradictory.

He was determined to support the crown prince to ascend to the throne, but secretly released the second prince once.

The things that the second prince did before were enough for him to stay in the imperial tomb for the rest of his life.

"Your Majesty is old, the second prince is his own flesh and blood after all!" Xiao Hanyin frowned.

In fact, he can understand the emperor's thoughts.

He wanted to punish the second prince, but he couldn't bear it.

However, his heart to support the crown prince has always been very firm, the throne is destined to be the crown prince's, and there will be no changes, unless the second prince can really usurp the throne successfully, but this possibility is really too small.

The emperor and the crown prince have been guarding against him for a long time, and now the second prince has no military power at all, and usurping the throne is just a fantasy......

"So what do we do now?" Liu Qingshao didn't want to deal with the second prince.

"I'll write to the emperor immediately!" Xiao Hanyin didn't want to get involved in the royal family's battle.

Can the second prince come over, he will directly hand it over to the emperor to deal with.

If the emperor had been soft-hearted at this time, he would not continue to care about these things.

Liu Qingshao felt that his method was good, so she temporarily suppressed the matter in her heart.

She didn't believe that the emperor would give him a chance to leave the imperial city after learning about the second prince's thoughts.

The second prince and the crown prince are both his sons, and how to choose is completely in the emperor's thoughts.

A few days later, the emperor suddenly sent a letter to them, proposing to let Liu Qingshao be the emperor and directly provide some special items to the palace.

When Liu Qingshao received the letter, she was stunned.

Aren't they discussing the matter of the second prince, why did they get involved with her?

"What does the emperor mean?" Liu Qingshao's face was slightly cold.

The emperor had also mentioned this matter before, but Liu Qingshao directly refused at that time.

She felt that her business was very good, and she didn't need to add another layer of glory.

Although the name of the imperial merchant is useful, for her, there is no need at all.

Liu Qingshao just wants to do the things in front of her with Xiao Hanyin, and then set off to return to Beijing.

"The emperor should want to control all of us in the hands of the royal family!" Xiao Hanyin's face was ugly and he said his conjecture.

Now, the second prince's impatience has made the emperor have a new plan in his heart, and he and Liu Qingshao are likely to become victims of the royal fight.

They don't have the ability to fight against the royal family at the moment, but in order to completely control them, the emperor has the idea of letting Liu Qingshao be the imperial businessman......

Liu Qingshao knew that the emperor didn't want them to leave the imperial city.

However, the matter of the imperial businessman, she really has no way to directly refuse.

After all, Xiao Hanyin and her position in the Imperial City are special, and their positions are very low, but they are doing some very dangerous things.

The emperor wanted Xiao Hanyin to stay by the prince's side forever, but unfortunately they had no intention of officialdom.

Therefore, he planned to use such a means to make Xiao Hanyin unable to abandon his responsibilities.

Liu Qingshao and he are husband and wife, if they can keep her, it is equivalent to keeping Xiao Hanyin.

The emperor's move is very clever, and Liu Qingshao can't ignore it at present.

After all, Liu Qingshao needs to have a certain force to protect them.

Imperial merchants are a good choice, women can't be officials in this dynasty, even if the emperor rewards her, she won't have real power in her hands.

However, if she can become an imperial merchant, the merchants in the imperial city will have to give her a few more courtesy, and even the officials in the court will not dare to touch her easily.

"Do you want to promise the emperor?" After Xiao Hanyin knew her plan, she felt a little disapproving.

Once Liu Qingshao agrees, it will not be so easy to completely separate them from the imperial court, and even if he resigns in the future, he will not be able to leave.

"Ah Yin, now I have no second way to go!" Liu Qingshao understood his concerns.

If she could, she didn't want to take this path, but the emperor's decision, she could refuse once, but she would not have a second chance.

Previously, she and Xiao Hanyin didn't want to stay in the imperial city, so they disobeyed the emperor's wishes.

In a fit of rage, the emperor almost killed them, as well as the people of the Xiao family.

Companions are like tigers, and sometimes they can only obey and cannot have their own thoughts......

Xiao Hanyin hugged her and said, "I'm sorry, I put you in the situation you are in now!" ”

If it weren't for him, Liu Qingshao wouldn't have come to the Imperial City at all. Nuancai Literature Network

"Fool, if I don't, how can we be married?" Liu Qingshao never regrets her choice.

They were destined to leave the Imperial City with little chance of leaving, and in that case, Liu Qingshao would rather choose an outcome that was favorable to them.

The position of an imperial merchant is enough to see that the emperor attaches great importance to them.

They may lose their freedom now, but when the crown prince ascends the throne, they may not have other opportunities.

The next day, Liu Qingshao replied directly to the emperor and agreed to the emperor's business.

You can't hide from what is destined.

She fell in love with Xiao Hanyin and became his wife, and she never regretted it.

In that case, why can't she sacrifice her freedom for Xiao Hanyin?

Liu Qingshao has always been very clear about what she wants in her heart.

What she cares about is whether she can live a stable life with Xiao Hanyin, and glory and wealth are not in her consideration.

However, since there is a chance to get both, she will naturally not give up......

The matter of the imperial merchant was thus decided.

"Ah Yin, I want to send something special to the palace!" A few days later, Liu Qing Shaoshou suddenly had a new idea.

"Did you think of any new food again?" Xiao Hanyin raised his eyebrows.

"Ahin, the one who knows me!" Liu Qingshao hooked her lips and smiled, "That's right, I plan to send something different and unavailable outside into the palace!" ”

"The idea is good, the people of the royal family value the most face, and their status is beyond the reach of others!" Xiao Hanyin thought for a moment and said, "Their food, clothing, housing and transportation are the most outstanding in the imperial city, if you can really send something that can't be bought outside, the emperor will definitely be very happy!" ”

Everyone likes that everything they have is unique.

The emperor is naturally no exception.

The concubines in the palace are from extraordinary backgrounds, and they are all masters of silver, and they have never seen anything precious.

They never cared about things that were expensive but nothing new.

Before, when Liu Qingshao was doing business in the imperial city, the things in the shop could be sold so hot, in fact, a big reason was that she was novel enough.

Women love beauty, men love face, and they are willing to pay money for this.

"I want everyone in the royal family to like what I give!" When the time comes, she may be able to take the initiative in her hands.

"It's not a good road!" If she is not careful, she may offend the royal family.

At the beginning, Xiao Hanyin and Liu Qingshao had always refused to be imperial businessmen, and they had this consideration.

They are all casual in their bones, and they are not willing to fight for power and profit, but they can't help but get involved......

"I know, but I'll do it!" Liu Qingshao likes to be challenging.

The emperor wanted to tie them up with this, but if Liu Qingshao didn't make a counterattack, she would feel uncomfortable.

And her counterattack was different, and by the time the emperor realized it, it was too late......

After discussing with Xiao Hanyin, Liu Qingshao decided to provide the harem concubines with dresses to participate in the palace banquet, as well as some snacks and dishes that were not available in ancient times.

These things may seem inconspicuous, but they can invade their lives silently.

Although the clothes of ancient times are luxurious, the styles are those over and over again.

That's why Liu Qingshao thought of modern dresses.

Dresses can be used as essential clothes for banquets.

There are all kinds of dresses from previous lives, but they are completely impractical for conservative antiquity.

Therefore, Liu Qingshao deliberately modified it slightly when drawing the design drawing.

Most of the clothes in ancient times were not close-fitting, and the waist was directly fixed with a waist seal.

Such clothes can't show a woman's curves at all.

Liu Qingshao wanted to make a bold attempt this time.

As for whether those women in the palace can accept it, it depends on their ability to bear it.

If they accept the dress she came up with, they will love it in the future.

There are few women who don't like beautiful clothes......

In the days that followed, Liu Qingshao had been studying clothes and eating.

During this time, Xiao Hanyin continued to stare at those people, while she stayed in the courtyard.

In any case, she must complete this in the shortest possible time.

Liu Qingshao wants those people in the palace, and they can't do without what she sends.

In this way, she can have enough ability to protect herself and Xiao Hanyin with the help of their strength.

Half a month later, Liu Qingshao finally drew a few novel but skinless dresses.

She wanted to test the reaction of the concubines in the harem before deciding whether to continue.

If they really can't accept it, then she will simply find another way.

When Xiao Hanyin came back, she found that she had almost packed all her things.

Recently, Xiao Hanyin also gave a lot of opinions on the things that Liu Qingshao came up with.

He has a lot of ideas in design, and he is an ancient person, so many concepts are useful to Liu Qingshao.

"This set stays?" Xiao Hanyin took out a picture directly from his sleeve.

"Are you really okay with me wearing this?" Liu Qingshao looked at the white slim embroidered dress, and couldn't help laughing.

After Xiao Hanyin saw the dresses she designed before, she felt very fresh, so she asked her to make her own set to wear at home.
