When the prince of no descendants found out that he had a baby, he went crazy

Chapter 86 The Kind Prince Li Xiao Junlin

His attitude made it clear that he was disabled.

Before several ministers could persuade him to kill the beauty who seduced the prince and let Xiao Junmo change his ways, he should go back to deal with the affairs of the court.

Xiao Junlin waved his hands impatiently and said, "I am a disabled person who is destined to have no offspring and has a broken arm.

Now I don’t want to do anything else except waiting for death.”

"But..." The Minister of Revenue Qin Chuan wanted to say something but was stopped by another minister next to him.

Whether it was the man's crippled arm or the imperial physician's pronouncement that he would be childless and then the news spread, they knew exactly who did all these things.

"For the sake of the millions of people in Daxuan, Prince Li, can you not let go of your personal grudges..."

Xiao Junlin looked at the official who said this with sharp and cold eyes, until the official lowered his head and dared not say another word.

"Whether the Daxuan Kingdom is good or not, whether it is prosperous or not, what does it have to do with me, a prince without any heirs to inherit the title? I think you have found the wrong person."

Only then did the ministers realize the seriousness of the situation.

Prince Li went to the battlefield when he was a teenager and was the god of war of the entire Daxuan. He had great prestige and influence both in the army and in the court.

In private, these well-informed officials were all unaware that the fact that this man could no longer have heirs was caused by the stupid, suspicious and suspicious emperor who now sat on the throne. No one would be able to forget their grudges and laugh it off.

Now their Daxuan Dynasty is only facing internal troubles. If the emperor does not deal with the disasters in various places, when other countries know the situation of Daxuan, it will not only be an internal trouble but will probably escalate into an external worry.

If by then he really gives up and doesn't want to enjoy this beautiful land because he has no children, and doesn't care about the invasion of other countries' armies, it will be a real disaster for Daxuan.

...Yes, these ministers guessed correctly.

Three years ago, shortly after Xiao Junlin was found after being poisoned, he was sent by Xiao Junmo to guard the northern border. After learning that he would have no heir, he no longer thought about defending the Daxuan kingdom for his cousin, the emperor.

Several ministers watched Xiao Junlin get on the prince's carriage, which was pulled by four horses and had a body inlaid with gold, silver, jade, gems and pearls. The body of the carriage was carved with patterns reserved for the royal family to show the royal nobility and luxury.

Apart from the emperor's dragon chariot pulled by six horses, this one is the most impressive in the entire imperial city. Now that the emperor has no heir, anyone would probably just ignore state affairs and muddle through.

As a traditional man of ancient times, Xiao Junlin was understood in this way.

The man sitting in the carriage with narrowed eyes curled his lips and smiled coldly, and said, "Cousin, you have caused me to be childless, and I still want to give you a beauty. This king is really too kind."

……

Because the boat that Gu Hua was riding on was his own, and they set out early, they had plenty of time, so they would stay for a few days in any city or county with beautiful scenery they came across along the way.

When Gu Hua took his four children and people around him ashore to play that day, he passed by a lyric workshop arranged by his family, and received the information collected and sent back by Mu Yu and his people in the capital.

"Ha!" After returning to the ship, Gu Hua opened the letter and couldn't help but sneer: "The emperor is greedy for pleasure and wants to build a luxurious palace for his favorite concubine, with wine pools and meat forests. This must cost a lot of money, right?!"

Gu Hua murmured, caressing the fourth child Lele who was dozing in his arms and unwilling to get off. Chunlan walked in and saw the little master in her master's arms, who had slowly closed his eyes due to sleepiness. She hurried over and lowered her voice: "Master, hand little master Lele to me and take him to the next room to sleep."

"Yes." Gu Hua gently handed the boy, who was lying in his arms like an octopus, to Chunlan and reminded her: "It's hot during the day and the boat is windy at night. Cover them with the thin blankets you brought at night."

Chunlan: "Yes, I understand."

After Chunlan left with the fourth child Lele in her arms, Gu Hua sat on the soft couch in front of the boat window, looking at the sky where it had started raining without anyone noticing.

This time, because Gu instigated the fourth branch to compete with her for the property, she realized the oppression and harshness of women in ancient society.

No wonder Mrs. Xi, who knew how to do business, handed the shop over to her husband to manage. In the end, the man and his mistress took away all the money in the family. Such a helpless thing happened.

Gu Hua originally thought that after leaving the Gu family, no one would be able to suppress her even if she revealed her identity as a woman. However, she did not expect that the fourth branch would turn against her and give the Gu family the opportunity to control her.

After realizing that she was destined not to get support from the government due to her identity as a woman, Gu Hua decisively hid all of the Gu family's assets in other places except for the shop that could not be moved openly for the time being.

Gu Hua now has a large box full of silver bills in his space, amounting to nearly 10 million taels of silver. Except for the nearly 8 million taels that he had raised at the beginning, the rest were working capital from the 80 shops that had been left in Su Fuying's hands and were withdrawn by her.

There was still a pile of valuable broken stones in the space, half of which had been sold.

Four boxes of jewelry, a small box of gold bars, and customized bills for two large sailing ships, one of which had been completed not long ago. These were just the properties in Gu Hua's space.

There is also an invisible force and industry that no one knows is hers, the water transportation operated by the Cao Gang, the intelligence organization that arranged for Mu Yu to find out where they are scattered, and the caravan that travels all over the country by Mu Lei.

These are forces that cannot be measured by money.

Even the Gu Mansion was sold at a low price by her to a foreign peddler named Gu Hua. Now the Gu family has no other businesses except those empty shops.

The news Mu Yu brought back from the capital included everything from the not-so-secret news in the imperial palace to the gossip in the streets.

Gu Hua held his chin up, thinking about the Maritime Customs Office established in the capital this time, which invited wealthy businessmen from all over the country to bid for the issuance of overseas trade licenses. He felt that there was something unusual in it.

Generally speaking, the imperial court's bidding activities have certain requirements for the wealthy businessmen who can participate, and those with average economic strength should not even be eligible to bid.

Just like the current bidding auctions, not everyone can participate. If you don’t have the strength to organize the event, you can’t even get in.

Especially seeing the last sentence in Mu Yu's secret letter, the national treasury is said to be very empty (the national treasury is empty)

This made Gu Hua decide to go to the capital to see the situation, in case he was accidentally slaughtered by the court as a fat sheep to supplement the emptiness of the national treasury. By the way, he would use the money of these wealthy businessmen to build a luxurious palace for his favorite concubine.

Originally, it only took about ten days to travel from Jiangzhou City to the capital by boat.

However, on the way, whenever Gu Hua, his children and the people around him saw a beautiful place, they would stop the boat and go ashore for fun. This trip took more than 20 days before they arrived at the Beijing Pier.
