Chapter 85: The Princess Is Gone

The twenty-third year of the Xishu calendar, this should have been an ordinary day.

But as I write this, this day is destined to be extraordinary.

In the Xishu Imperial Palace, hundreds of civil and military officials were listening diligently to the conversation of the man above, and the four princes were standing on both sides of the main hall.

Except for the eldest prince who had been meditating with his eyes closed, the rest of the people listened very carefully.

At least it seems serious.

Li Jin, the emperor of Xishu, after finishing speaking, breathed a long sigh of relief, and his eyebrows were full of relief.

The production line of perfume and refined salt has long been rolled out, and in the past few months, it has finally seen its first huge income.

In addition to the one to be distributed to Ye Wuwu, there is also a profit of eight million taels of silver.

That is to say, according to the original rule of four or six points of refined salt......

At this moment, Ye Wuwu's harvest can have nearly five million taels.

This is only the initial harvest, the refined salt caused a strong market reaction, Li Jin had already expected it, although he was happy, but not surprised.

On the contrary, it was the perfume thing, which he underestimated.

Or rather, he underestimated the purchasing power of women......

The first batch of perfumes was in short supply, and it was sold out in just a few days.

This is only a phenomenon in the imperial capital, and the rest of the places have not yet started to sell, and they have not even used the marketing method that Ye Wuwu said at the beginning.

The Tobe Shangshu standing at the bottom was in tears between his eyes at this moment.

In the first 20 years, he lost to Da Chu twice in the competition, and lost a lot of money, and in recent years, Xishu has been plagued by natural disasters, and the silver in the treasury has long been sent out for disaster relief, and there is not much left.

But this refined salt and perfume filled the treasury at once.

And this is only a quarter, the output is not perfect, and there is still a lot of room for improvement.

As far as he knew, Da Chu had already made a move to purchase these two items from this side......

If this is negotiated, the income from these two things alone can be worth a year's tax in Xishu.

And the one who brought all this was the crown prince Ang Lee!

Li An was standing in the main hall at the moment, and his expression was also proud.

Although I didn't research these two things by myself, I brought them back after all.

He glanced at the third prince and the fourth prince standing aside, and found that the other two looked ugly.

Li Anxin only felt that it was cool, but above the court, he was still silent.

This is only one achievement, and his position as the crown prince can be said to be sitting steadily, and no one can shake it.

Li Jin, who was on the dragon chair, looked at Li An with a kind face at this moment, thought about it, and spoke.

"The prince has worked a lot for the refined salt and perfume this time, and I intend to let the prince take over the ...... of the Imperial Forest Army."

However, as soon as these words came out, before they finished speaking, many people below changed their expressions drastically.

The Imperial Forest Army is the most elite and regular force in the imperial capital.

In the past, if anyone took over this force, it can be said that the future Xishu Emperor will be completely decided, and others will not be able to turn over the storm no matter what.

The third prince and the fourth prince who were standing on the side glanced at each other at this moment, and then the third prince gritted his teeth and stood up. ,

"Father, the son feels that this matter is a little inappropriate, and it is not appropriate to rush it."

Ang Lee frowned and didn't speak.

Li Jin glanced at the other party, and there was a faint smile in his eyes, but he still said with a solemn expression.

"Why not?"

The third prince looked a little hesitant at the moment, but he still said.

"The prince's contribution to bringing these two things this time is undoubtedly huge for our Xishu, but if you only use this as a judgment, it is really a little lacking."

Li Jin smiled and said.

"And what do you think is the judgement?"

The third prince's face turned a little red at the moment, but he couldn't speak for a while.

Li Jin didn't care about the other party's expression, but thought about it and said slowly.

"The prince's contribution is huge, if you are not convinced, you can also bring a few such things that can benefit the entire people of Xishu, understand?"

Li Jin said in a calm tone, but I don't know if it was the words of the third prince that played a role, or if Li Jin had changed his mind in his heart, in short, he didn't mention letting Li An take over the Imperial Forest Army for the time being.

Li An's face was a little gloomy, he looked at the third prince who had retreated from the side, and snorted coldly.

The third prince turned a deaf ear at the moment, but there was a hint of excitement in his expression.

The same is true of the Four Princes.

Although Li Jin didn't say it explicitly, as long as he could bring something equivalent to the refined salt perfume, right?

This is their chance.

Li Jin looked at his sons with different expressions below, smiled slightly, and just wanted to say something, but was interrupted by a figure coming in from the side hall.

Li Jin looked at the person who came, but found that it was his queen, frowned, and said.

"Above the court, what kind of system will it become?"

But then it seemed that the queen's face was a little flustered, Li Jin's tone softened a little, and said.

"What's so flustered?"

The twenty-third year of the Xishu calendar, July 14.

Just as the officials were surprised by the refined salt and perfume, they learned even more exciting news.

Princess Xishu is gone!

……

On the path, a luxury carriage drove slowly.

Ye Wuwu sat in the carriage, feeling the animal skin under his feet, the silk on the seat, and the night pearl that dotted above the carriage......

Ye Wuwu sighed a little, this is probably because there is a mine at home, the hidden family, I really can't afford to provoke it.

Beside him, there were Li Chuzhen and the woman in white, the three of them were in the carriage, but they didn't feel crowded at all.

As for Shanglu?

was thrown outside by Ye Wuwu as a driver.

After answering the questions that day, the other party left, and Ye Wuwu thought that this was the end of it.

But on the second day, the other party came to the door and wanted to visit the Taibai Sword Sect with him.

In all fairness, Ye Wuwu didn't really want to move forward with the other two.

After all, he couldn't figure out where the other party came from, and Ye Wuwu was still more vigilant in his heart.

But under Shang Lu's strong request and the temptation of this luxury carriage, Ye Wuwu still silently chose to accept it.

It's just that Ye Wuwu doesn't quite understand why the other party wants to take the small road instead of the official road.

However, the path was also faster, and Ye Wuwu himself wanted to return to the Taibai Sword Sect as soon as possible, so he didn't care so much.

Compared with the silence of the woman in white and the bitter cry of the merchant Lu outside the carriage, Li Chuzhen pulled Ye Wuwu and kept asking something.

At first, most of them asked about some things about the rivers and lakes, but unfortunately, Ye Wuwu didn't know much about it, so he could only blow the nearest living Buddha in the Western Regions with her, but Li Chuzhen was not very interested.

Ye Wuwu also asked the other party's family by knocking on the side, but Li Chuzhen was much smarter than he imagined, and he didn't knock out any useful information, but he learned that the other party was seventeen years old, the same age as his junior sister.

Chatting and chatting, under Ye Wuwu's eyes, Li Chuzhen took out an item and sprayed it on himself, and then carefully put it into the package.

A scent of flowers suddenly filled the entire carriage.
