As soon as the old emperor's imperial edict was issued, Duke Ping hurriedly sent someone to Huaizhou to capture Xie Xun. However, the person who came reported that Xie Xun was no longer in the Huaizhou camp and had followed Shi Yuan to the border pass.

Within a few months, the Minister of Household Affairs began to complain, "Your Majesty, I don't know how long this war will last. If it doesn't take a year, the national treasury will be in deficit again."

However, if taxes are raised in various places at this time, public dissatisfaction will inevitably boil over. Most of the people do not understand the war and will only blame the imperial court for finding wars.

The old emperor was also worried. This is indeed a problem. In wars, the people have always suffered the most, but there is no way to do it. We must not suffer the hardships of the soldiers on the front line of life and death.

Recently, various palaces have been cutting down their expenses, to some extent.

The Minister of Industry is anxious. His waterway will be completed soon, but it cannot be cut off at this time!

Just say that this battle cannot be fought.

At this moment, Su Juan said, "Sir, don't worry, I still have some private properties and shops there, which are very profitable."

As Su Juan spoke, her flesh ached. Although she had prepared for the war early in the morning, she still couldn't bear to take it all out.

When Mo Shangshu heard this, his eyes immediately lit up. Xiao Su had donated a lot back then, and now he still has private property! ?

The old emperor asked: "Jinyang, are you going to donate your private property again?"

Su Juan nodded, "My grandson only hopes that he can contribute a small amount to the imperial court."

The old emperor remained silent. Even so, how much could he do?

Other courtiers are also thinking that even if Princess Jinyang donates the entire Su family, she may not be able to survive for long. Fighting is not a simple matter. Food, herbs, as well as cotton clothes and armor robes to keep out the cold in winter, etc. But it's not a small amount.

Everyone fell into sorrow.

The next day, when Su Juan once again sent the prepared account books to the old emperor, the old emperor's eyes widened!

He looked at the Su family in disbelief. This was more than before. How much private property did this girl hide? How much money could the Su family make from doing business?

I am an emperor who is very poor, but my wealth as a businessman is worth several treasuries.

The more the old emperor thought about it, the more sad he became. If he thought like this, why should he be an emperor? It would be better to just do business.

He felt complicated and handed the account book to the chamberlain. The chamberlain passed it to Mo Shangshu of the Ministry of Revenue. After Mo Shangshu saw the account book, he almost jumped up on the spot.

Money, it’s all money!

This Xiaosu is basically a money tree. Shake it twice and money will fall out in a steady stream.

She even donated it all without any hesitation. No wonder she is the Crown Princess!

If it were anyone else, how could they be willing to take out so much private property in their hands? Anyway, I would certainly not be willing to part with it.

Thinking of this, Mo Shangshu admired Su Juan so much that he said, "Your Highness is righteous!"

Princess Jinyang's donation of private property once again caused an uproar in Beijing. The people were so happy to know that there was no need to increase taxes.

Many people also question why Princess Jinyang has so much private property. Maybe she has embezzled a lot in the Ministry of Household Affairs over the years.

Some people also lamented that the Su family is indeed the richest businessman, they are rich!

When Mr. Su saved his life on the city wall, he was so frightened that he didn't dare to go out. He also didn't dare to think that Princess Jinyang's biological father was out and about, so he lived with the few money he had in the mansion every day.

Su Lingling went back to the Su Mansion several times. She originally wanted to tell her family the good news about her husband's promotion. She was influenced by Xin Zhang. She also wanted to persuade her father to donate some money to the court at this time, but Mr. Su didn't get a cent. Kemba.

Mrs. Su was not surprised. She was afraid that her husband would keep the money until his death, and would not care about the outside business, and would have to worry about it as a woman.

The imperial edict was sent to the Su family, and everyone in the capital came to see the excitement, only to realize that the Su family had gained the title of imperial merchant. This was the first time in a hundred years.

Anyone who knows the inside story knows that the name of this imperial merchant was obtained in exchange for most of the Su family.

Mr. Su is now afraid of death and just wants to live with money. He doesn't care about the title of Huangshang or anything. He doesn't want to recognize Su Juan, a prodigal daughter.

After learning that the Su family members had donated a lot of private property, Master Su didn't accept the imperial edict. He was so angry that he vomited blood in the mansion, fainted, and kept saying "injustice". Mrs. Su is happy. With the title of Huangshang, the outside business can also be taken care of, the son-in-law can also be respected by others, and it will be more convenient to do things in the court.

Su Juan's thigh was really right back then.

When she was young, she thought Li Ruohua was capable, but she didn't expect her daughter to be even more capable now.

The news that Mr. Su vomited blood and fainted spread widely. People said that he gave birth to a good daughter, did good things for the people of the court, and was a great good man.

Shen Ruhui came here specifically to inform the Su family members of the rumors, and teased the Su family members with a smile, "Now, I'm afraid you won't be able to return to Su Mansion."

The two were playing chess. Su Juan was not very good at chess originally, but Shen Ruhui often studied chess records. She studied with her for several years, and now her chess skills have improved a lot.

Su Juan's voice was calm, "I don't plan to go back either."

Although Li Ruohua was not killed by him, he died because of him.

If it hadn't been for his design, Li Ruohua would not have married him at all. After getting married, he was trapped in the square yard. In the name of raising a baby, he was not allowed to touch the business before marriage. Later, he even used his daughter as a threat to take away all Li Ruohua's business. Take control.

Others said that being a mother means being strong, but Su Juan always felt that if Li Ruohua hadn't saved the man she was engaged to, if she hadn't married, and if she didn't have a daughter later, she would have been better off.

Her daughter became her weak point, and she was manipulated by Mr. Su who tore off the mask, and finally died in depression.

Su Juan raised her eyes and looked at Shen Ruhui, "What should I say, are you going to become an official or continue to hide in my square yard?"

A long time has passed since the Pei family case, and the innocent people involved have long since received justice, including Mr. Shen back then. Now if Shen Ruhui wants to become an official, he can recommend him to the old emperor. With his ability, It is not difficult to get an official position.

Shen Ruhui smiled and shook his head, "I haven't thought about it yet."

At first, I really wanted to become an official, but it was difficult to do so. Now that the opportunity is in front of me, I am hesitant.

"Are you going to escort the grain shipment to the border in a few days?"

Su Juan nodded, "Well, winter is coming soon, and the border crossing has been going on for half a year. Although there have been one or two good news, my uncle has been worried about Xie Xun, so I stopped by to have a look."

Shen Ruhui smiled and said, "Everyone in the Xie family is really a character."

I heard that Xie Xun has now become Shi Yuan's deputy general and has made many military exploits without bringing any embarrassment to the Duke of Ping.

Su Juan smiled, "He is a natural general, but he didn't have the chance before."

Some people are mediocre just because they don't have the right opportunities. Once they seize the opportunity, these people will skyrocket. She thought, Xie Xun is like that.

Shen Ruhui suddenly said, "This time, can I go with you to see it?"

Su Juan was a little surprised, "You also want to see Xie Xun?"

Do these two people have such a deep relationship?
