Stop acting, Your Majesty, the queen knows you're faking it

Chapter 301
Chi Xinian's ability to adapt has always been good, and after the initial discomfort was put aside, she naturally leaned on the armrest and thought carefully: "If you only say that he is a soft bone, then he is too much.

"But ordinary interests are not worth his life. Does it mean that the two countries are peaceful and close, is there any long-term benefit for him?"

Chi Xinian stroked his chin, and pondered for a moment: "By the way, Xue Qin or someone related to Xue Qin is in charge of the trade matter you mentioned earlier?
"Commerce between the two countries is a good thing for the people, and it is also a good thing for the country. The goods are in circulation, the people make more money, and the taxes will naturally increase. What's more, a large number of goods pass through the customs, and taxes have to be paid...

"Tell me, is it possible that Xue Qin is thinking about this money?"

Naturally, an ordinary amount of gold and silver money would not be able to tempt this world's number one aristocratic family.

But what about the tax cuts for border trade?

A huge amount of wealth that can be obtained for a long time... Not to mention the Xue family, even the royal family cannot be tempted.Otherwise, why was Yan Chujing staring at trade affairs all day long?
What Chi Xinian thought of, Yan Chujing also thought of.

But just because he thought about it, the doubts on his face became more serious: "But as far as I know, there is basically no group of people headed by the Xue family who are in charge of trade matters.

"Because there is too much room for seeking profit in this matter, I am worried that Xue Qin and others will make money from it and strengthen their own power, so I deliberately selected a group of my own people to hold the power.

"Although members of the family headed by the Xue family have arranged some due to affection, but they are all idle jobs, and they can hardly earn money..."

When Yan Chujing said this, Chi Xinian understood what he meant.

Those who seized this business opportunity were all Yan Chujing's people. Even if the two countries were really close and continued this intangible wealth, Xue Qin would not be able to gain any benefit from it.

If he can't make money, then this peace is useless to him.

"But...if he hadn't set his sights on this wealth, what was he after?" Chi Xinian's doubts gradually deepened, and his brows gradually frowned.

After thinking about it, she elbowed the people around her again: "Could it be that someone pretends to be sincere to you, but is actually Xue Qin's accomplice?"

Chi Xinian felt that this was not impossible.

The Xue family has a century-old family, several generations of important officials, and has deep roots in the court.His foundation was simply beyond the control of Yan Chujing, who had only been on the throne for six years.

In this way, it is completely achievable for Yan Chujing to put his own people under Yan Chujing's hands and quietly do things for him.

But when Yan Chujing heard the words, he still shook his head without hesitation: "What you said may be realized, but in my opinion, it has nothing to do with Xue Qin's positivity."

"Why?" Chi Xinian was startled.

"Because marriage and trade are not necessarily related." Yan Chujing thought for a while, and tried to analyze the matter from another angle, "Do you think, why can I destroy the marriage so decisively?
"Isn't it because, without this marriage, there would be no loss for me at all?
"Commercial trade is an important way to enrich the national treasury. If it is really affected by the marriage, I may think carefully before taking action."

"Oh yes... What Xue Qin cares about is the marriage, not just the continuation of the peace between the two countries." Hearing this, Chi Xinian also quickly reacted.
