"I don't know how to make paper, but I know what raw materials make white paper. ”

Xiao Changyi said: "That's enough." "There are many people in Xiyun Kingdom who know the process of papermaking, but they don't know what kind of material can make white paper, and they have been groping.

Quiet then said: "I have a kind of paper in the world called rice paper, it has the king of paper, the reputation of millennium paper, that is, white, not only easy to preserve, but also resistant to aging, no discoloration, long life." My grandfather used to give me that kind of paper to practice calligraphy, and the raw materials of this rice paper were sandalwood bark and straw. If the imperial father asked people to make white paper from these two materials, it would definitely be very profitable, and when the time came, the money would be used to fill the treasury, which would be considered to be made by the treasury, and there would be no need to take the road of raising taxes, forcing merchants and farmers to live in difficulty. ”

Xiao Changyi nodded and said: "If you really make a blank piece of paper, you really don't need to take the road of tax increase." ”

After a pause, he added: "The old man and Chengyu are worried about this, you see when you go and tell them this method, let them try to make it." ”

Quietly: "Go and say, I'm a woman, they definitely don't like me meddling in any national affairs." "The harem has clearly stipulated that she can't interfere in politics, and she naturally can't.

Xiao Changyi insisted: "You say." ”

Quiet frowned: "You're not afraid that they won't like me?" ”

Xiao Changyi said: "They have the capacity to accommodate people, if it is a method that is beneficial to the livelihood of the people of the country, they will not care whether you are a man or a woman." ”

Quietly raised his eyebrows and quipped: "It's rare that you think so highly of them." ”

Xiao Changyi was silent.

Quiet stopped joking, got up from his lap, and then pulled him up: "Let's go, let's go and tell them, save them from worrying, the day after tomorrow is the emperor's father's birthday, don't let him worry about state affairs so much." ”

Emperor Xiyun really loves her father-in-law, and Emperor Xiyun's identity as a stepfather is quite competent, so she will naturally treat Emperor Xiyun as her father.

The Imperial Study.

Emperor Xiyun and Su Chengyu were still in the imperial study, their faces were full of gloom, if it weren't for the empty treasury, they would never have taken the road of increasing taxes.

Su Chengyu saw that Jing Jing and Xiao Changyi were coming, greeted him politely, and called Xiao Changyi and Jing Jing to the royal brother and sister-in-law, but his tone was a little wilted, and it was obvious that his mood was very depressed.

It was rare that Emperor Xiyun didn't smile at Xiao Changyi, but just sat on the dragon chair, frowning, staring at one book after another on the table asking for a tax increase.

Xiao Changyi walked quietly to Emperor Xiyun, and said expressionlessly: "Old man, my daughter-in-law has thought of a way to solve the deficit of the treasury. ”

Emperor Xiyun didn't even look at Xiao Changyi, so he said weakly: "What can she do as a woman, it's okay, Yi'er, I'm worried about it now, you all let me be quiet for a while." ”

As soon as he heard Emperor Xiyun's words, Xiao Changyi pulled quiet and left.

It was Su Chengyu who hurriedly grabbed Xiao Changyi and did not allow Xiao Changyi to leave with quietness.

I saw that Su Chengyu dragged Xiao Changyi, who wanted to leave, without any image, and hurriedly said to Emperor Xiyun, who was still sitting at the desk: "Father, have you forgotten about the valley and the terraces?" This is all thanks to the imperial sister-in-law. Since Brother Yi said that the imperial sister-in-law has a way, then the imperial sister-in-law must have really thought of a better way than raising taxes, and the father should not underestimate the imperial sister-in-law, and missed the good prescription. ”
