The whole family is obsessed with love? The princess woke them up one after another.

"Qi Yan even schemes against his own bedmate, cooperating with him... Father, we must be careful." Jiang Tinghao said worriedly.

The ruler of Beidian seemed to be deep in thought, but did not draw a conclusion directly: "I have heard that Qi Zhiyu and Qi Yan have a deep-seated grudge."

Jiang Tinghao nodded and said understandingly, "Father, we need to investigate this thoroughly."

"Cooperating with Qi is a major undertaking. If we are betrayed by Qi, it will be extremely disadvantageous for us."

"Very well." The King of Northern Dian agreed with his statement. "The investigation is entrusted to you!"

"Yes." Jiang Tinghao readily accepted the task.

The Crown Prince watched quietly from the side, feeling utterly absurd as his father entrusted the matter to Jiang Tinghao.

Jiang Tinghao went to investigate?

Isn't that all done according to Qi Zhiyu's wishes?

He knows the whole truth, which is why he can see it clearly.

If he knew nothing and was caught up in the situation, he would really be led by the nose by Qi Zhiyu.

The key point is that every step they took was reasonable, and then... they reasonably jumped into the pit she had dug in advance.

The prince felt a chill run down his spine, and his hair stood on end.

After the King of Northern Dian made his plans, Qi Yan returned home with a gloomy expression, sitting in his chair sulking.

Princess Qi was quite understanding: "Your Highness, don't be angry."

"Qi Zhiyu has such a foul mouth."

"It's a pity that this is Northern Dian, not Great Rui. Her leaving the banquet without regard for others is a disgrace to the King of Northern Dian."

Princess Qi covered her mouth and chuckled as she said this, "The Emperor of Northern Dian is not my father, he won't indulge her."

Qi Zhiyu is in for a lot of trouble!

Qi Yanhe watched as Princess Qi talked to herself, trying his best to calm himself down.

Don't get angry with an idiot.

"I admire Qi Zhiyu quite a bit." Qi Yanhe finally spoke, but his words instantly ignited the jealousy in Princess Qi's heart.

Why did her husband admire Qi Zhiyu?

That slut Qi Zhiyu actually seduced her husband!

Qi Zhiyu is already married, why is she still so restless?

"She's deliberately going against you in order to sabotage the cooperation between our Qi Kingdom and Northern Yunnan," Qi Yanhe remarked, seemingly oblivious to the burning jealousy in Princess Qi's eyes.

"She said all that just to portray me as a despicable person, so that the King of Northern Dian would become suspicious of me."

"From now on, no matter what I say, the King of Northern Dian will not believe me."

"Qi Zhiyu, what a cunning scheme!"

Princess Qi was overjoyed upon hearing this.

She said that everything Qi Zhiyu said at the banquet was nonsense.

What do you mean by her husband pushing her to the front while he benefits from behind?

That's simply impossible.

Her husband wasn't that kind of person!

As expected, it was all Qi Zhiyu's conspiracy!

"Qi Zhiyu is shameless!" Princess Qi was so angry that her chest ached. "She deliberately sabotaged the friendship between our Qi Kingdom and Northern Dian just to please my father."

"She's just doing this for Da Rui's benefit; she's shameless!"

Qi Yanhe sighed: "The current situation is... the King of Beidian should already have doubts about me."

"Never mind, it's just a side thing to connect with Bei Dian. The main reason I came here is to accompany you to visit Qi Zhiyu," Qi Yan said with a gentle smile.

"You've come to see me, so you can rest assured. That's more important than anything else."

Princess Qi was deeply moved, but in her heart she cursed Qi Zhiyu to death.

Qi Zhiyu is a heartless bastard!

Her husband was such a good person, yet Qi Zhiyu still threw dirty water on him.

Qi Zhiyu is not human!

"Alright, let's rest." Qi Yanhe patted Princess Qi's hand and said with a smile.

He knew her personality best. As long as she suffered more setbacks in front of Qi Zhiyu and made a scene with Qi Zhiyu, the King of Beidian would know that the two of them were not on good terms.

Therefore, Qi Zhiyu's words were a deliberate attempt to smear him.

In this way, there will be no problem for him to cooperate with Bei Dian.

This time, he must reach an agreement with Bei Dian and take over Da Rui in one fell swoop.

Only in this way can the losses he caused to the Qi Kingdom be made up for.

Those losses...

Qi Yanhe's heart bleeds whenever he thinks about it now.

All of that was done by Qi Zhiyu!

As long as he succeeds in cooperating with Bei Dian, the day he attacks Da Rui will be the day Qi Zhiyu's head rolls!

Both the rulers of the Northern Dian Kingdom, Qi Yan and others, harbored their own agendas.

With such a juicy piece of meat like Da Rui right there, who wouldn't want to take a bite?

It would be even better if we could divide it up directly.

Making a profit is fine, but they are also cautious, fearing that the other party might set a trap for them.

They each had their own agendas, while Qi Zhiyu remained completely unaffected.

Luo Yu watched the princess leisurely reach out her hand, then silently poured her a cup of tea and handed it to her.

Originally, she thought that she and Ning Shuang would experience many life-or-death situations when they came to Northern Yunnan with the princess, and that they would have to be wary of open and hidden attacks every day.

Or, they would inquire about whatever the princess needed to do.

Now it seems... she really overthought things.

The princess has absolutely no need for it.

The princess sat in her room, and if she wanted to know any news, Jiang Tinghao would find out for himself.

The identity of Prince Ning... is really too useful.

"Contact the shopkeepers of those stores," Qi Zhiyu said slowly, "and raise the prices of your goods fivefold."

Luo Yu stared at the princess in shock: "Raise it... raise it five times?"

Is there something wrong with her ears? Did she mishear?

Otherwise, why would the princess give such an order?

The shopkeepers of those shops are His Majesty's spies planted in northern Yunnan.

Wouldn't their sudden price increase expose them?

Luo Yu asked the question subconsciously. After asking, she immediately lowered her head and cupped her hands, saying, "This servant knows her mistake."

"This servant will take care of it immediately!"

"Mm." Qi Zhiyu nodded slightly.

Ning Shuang was also puzzled, but she remained silent.

Since the princess did this, there must be a reason behind it.

The princess would definitely not allow those people to be exposed.

But... she was also incredibly curious, why increase the price fivefold?

Soon, Ning Shuang and Luo Yu found out.

Because Princess Qi successfully established frequent contact with some ladies in the capital of Northern Dian Kingdom, and their relationship seemed to be quite good.

Even within the ladies' circles, some people were criticizing their princess behind her back for being ungrateful.

Despite having such a caring aunt as Princess Qi, Qi Zhiyu showed no gratitude and instead constantly embarrassed Princess Qi.

Princess Qi's good intentions were truly wasted.

In just a few short days, Princess Qi has accomplished all this. It has to be said, money is truly a wonderful thing.

Qi Zhiyu loosened her grip, and the silver in her hand fell into the box.

The box was full of silver, which was truly enviable.

The Crown Prince exclaimed, "The princess's ability to make money is truly extraordinary."
