C58 Lady Wans scheme (2/2)
However, the Emperor of the next month hoped that Feng Li could choose a person to marry as soon as possible. If not for her offending the crown prince that day, the emperor might have stood on her side. Unfortunately … The original owner didn't know anything.
And the old man kept pushing. She didn't have the time to think about it further, so she made the decision that seemed to be the most annoying at the moment. She had offended someone that should have been her backer.
She was alone and without help. If it weren't for the fact that Feng Zhi was interested in her, she probably would have died countless times over by now, right? Thinking of this, Mu Ru Yue slightly narrowed her eyes. A faint smile appeared on his lips.
”Miss, you can still laugh.” Xing'er saw that Mu Ru Yue didn't know what to think and smiled, a little disappointed. Others might not know about it, but she knew that the Prince had never stayed in his mistress' room once in the past few days.
If this carried on, he would be lured away by other foxes sooner or later. At that time, the young miss would be in trouble.
An unpampered princess... Just thinking about it made him anxious.
”If you can't smile, don't tell me you're going to cry?” Mu Ru Yue looked at Xing'er and asked.
”But you can't just watch that woman stay in the palace.” Xing'er said anxiously.
”Xing'er, you just need to remember that no one will be able to stop me. That's enough. As for that woman? I'm not interested in doing it anyway. ” Mu Ru Yue then extended her hand out of the carriage and handed over five copper coins as she said, ”Three skewers of candied fruits.”
After saying that, in less than two seconds, Mu Ru Yue reached her hand back. The three bundles of candied fruits in her hand looked really enticing. Mu Ru Yue handed them to Xing'er and Xiao Bai for a serving each. Xing'er was so angry that she almost died. ”Young miss!”
”Alright Xing'er, eat the candied fruits. ”Don't think too much.” Mu Ru Yue replied lazily and left to eat without a care for Xing'er. Lil 'White looked at Xing'er and then looked at Murong Yue. In her heart, he felt that Xing'er was worried for nothing.
The wangfei is not as cowardly and incompetent as Xing'er thinks.
The city was divided into four areas, north, east and south. In the center of the city was the imperial citadel. The city gates were at the north gate, while the Beijing refugee camp was at the south. Strangely enough, at the foot of the Royal Capital, the four regions should have been four prosperous zones that extended out to the outskirts of the Royal Capital. Only then would they gradually grow further and further away.
Yet … The refugee area occupied the entire south.
Because the north gate had a gate, it was the main street. There were only a handful of people who could do business there. Even the aristocratic families in the capital only had one or two stores.
The real business district was on the east and west side. There were very few places to the east, and there were many merchants in the west. As long as you could think of it, there was nothing that others could not do. That was the real business district.
The entire capital was gathered there.
There were so many people in the Imperial City this month. There were many who wanted to make money, but they could only stay in the west region. It was obvious how dissatisfied these people were. In addition, the entire south was occupied by the poor, and there was nothing built up. Naturally, everyone's plans were all set there as well.
The more merchants there were, the more money there would be. With more silver, when paying taxes, the treasury would naturally be filled. Not only that, at the foot of the Royal Capital, there was a place that would affect the prosperity of the entire Royal Capital. How could the Emperor be willing to allow that?
This was the reason for the current situation.
There had been no one to manage the south for years, and very few people were willing to give them food. Even that was not necessarily their problem. If they wanted to kill him, they had to drive him crazy first. These people had already lost all hope after being isolated from the outside world.
Right now, everyone was coveting this place. Those who hadn't had a chance in a long time, seeing that they could still get their hands on the silver and leave this damned place, would definitely be like a swarm of bees. But... Everyone had a good idea. Who would have thought that he would have such a retarded nephew like the Prime Minister's wife?
