Chapter 295 No Problem
Looking at Xiao Yiran's worried expression.
Xie Xunfeng gently stroked Xiao Yiran's face and said, "Don't worry, there are people I care about here... I don't want to die..."
After hearing what Xie Xunfeng said, Xiao Yiran smiled faintly and looked at Xie Xunfeng's affectionate eyes.
Xiao Yiran gave Xie Xunfeng a hug directly...
The next day.
The fourth prince, Xiao Wenqin, was waiting at the door early.
Xie Xunfeng didn't bring anyone this time and let Jing Fei stay here.
He still needs someone he can trust here.
Looking at Xiao Wenqin carrying several carriages full of things.
Xie Xunfeng looked at Xiao Wenqin and said, "What have you prepared? Why are there so many things?"
After hearing what Xie Xunfeng said, Xiao Wenqin said, "I took all the money I had..."
Seeing Xiao Wenqin say this, Xie Xunfeng smiled bitterly and said to Xiao Wenqin, "We are going to fight. Isn't the Ministry of War responsible for money and food?"
Xiao Wenqin said to Xie Xunfeng, "Xie Zhizi, those soldiers in Yuntai Mountain are all extremely vicious people... Didn't I say that money can make the devil work?"
After hearing what Xiao Wenqin said, Xie Xunfeng smiled faintly, and then said, "It is true that money makes the world go round... But how many troops are there on Yuntai?"
"About 100,000..."
Xiao Wenqin said to Xie Xunfeng.
Xie Xunfeng looked at the carts of gold, silver and treasures and couldn't help but smile and said, "I'm afraid these gold, silver and treasures are not enough to fill their teeth..."
Xiao Wenqin smiled awkwardly, then said, "It's better than nothing... It's better to have something than nothing..."
Xie Xunfeng smiled faintly at Xiao Wenqin and said, "You can have someone send them back... We each have one horse, so we need to go faster..."
After hearing what Xie Xunfeng said, Xiao Wenqin looked at Xie Xunfeng and said, "Xie the proton, don't you want it?"
Xie Xunfeng said to Xiao Wenqin, "It is true that money makes the world go round...but we also need enough money...we don't have money right now, but it's not a big problem...I have a way..."
Xiao Wenqin looked at Xie Xunfeng.
No further questions.
Xiao Wenqin learned nothing else from his trip to the Great Zhou with Xie Xunfeng.
But, I still learned one thing.
That is to believe...
They did not question any decision made by Xie Xunfeng, and chose to trust him unconditionally.
That's enough.
Xiao Wenqin didn't waste any time and directly asked people to take all the treasures back.
Xie Xunfeng had also asked Shi Yan to find a few good horses.
The three of them left in this simple manner.
After they left Longyang City on horseback.
At this time, the emperor was in the Yangxin Palace.
The Queen Mother sat upright.
Xiao Shentian sat on one side and Meng Fengfei sat on the other side.
A eunuch reported to them.
"Your Highness the Fourth Prince, Xiao Wenqin, Xie Zhizi, and one of his men. Three people, three horses, and they are leading the troops..."
After listening to this, Xiao Shentian smiled faintly and said, "To be honest, I still like Xie Xunfeng very much... He is brave and resourceful, and he doesn't waste time... I hope he can give me a surprise... If he comes back safe and sound this time, I will definitely let him go..."
After hearing what Xiao Shentian said, the Queen Mother smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, I know that you love talents... If Xie Xunfeng was from our Great Xia, or a commoner, I would not treat him like this! On the contrary, I would promote him and make use of him, but he is not from our Great Xia..."
Meng Fengfei at the side also quickly said, "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is right... Those who are not of our race must have different hearts..."
After hearing what Meng Fengfei said.
The Queen Mother nodded and said to Xiao Shentian, "Your Majesty... Concubine Feng is right... Although he is very obedient to Xiao Yiran at this moment... It seems that Xiao Yiran can control him... But let's not forget... Xie Xunfeng is also a very good actor. He played the fool before and fooled everyone."
"How do we know that his love for Xiao Yiran is real? Paralyze us..."
After hearing what the Queen Mother said, Xiao Shentian nodded and said, "Mother, you are right... Then if he really defeats the Great Zhou, how should we treat him..."
"Then we can't keep him... How can we keep such a ruthless person who can even sell out and harm the interests of his own country?"
Xiao Shentian nodded.
Xiao Shentian said to the Queen Mother, "Mother...Also, if we rashly transfer the 100,000 evil troops from Yuntai Mountain...then what should we do if the barbarians from the south attack rashly...by then, our gate will be wide open. Although the 100,000 evil troops are notorious, their combat effectiveness is still very good..."
The Queen Mother said to Xiao Shentian, "Your Majesty, how long made any movement... decades, perhaps... In the harsh environment of the Nanman, the Yiren are probably extinct... It doesn't matter..."
After hearing what the Queen Mother said, Xiao Shentian nodded and said, "Indeed, there really aren't many people in the Nanman area these years..."
The Queen Mother said to Meng Fengfei and the others, "Also, you all should keep quiet for the time being... Don't mess with Xiao Yiran... I heard that Xie Xunfeng has set up a lot of spies in Longyang City to find out about Xiao Yiran... Don't attract that lunatic back..."
After hearing the Queen Mother's words, everyone nodded.
After that, the Queen Mother said to Xiao Shentian, "Your Majesty, have you read the tax reform proposal that I asked Xiao Jinshan to give you before?"
Xiao Shentian said to the Queen Mother, "Queen Mother, this tax reform... will affect the entire body... This time is really inappropriate..."
The Queen Mother said to Xiao Shentian, "Your Majesty, you are confused... Don't you know who my tax reform is targeting?"
Xiao Shentian said to the Queen Mother, "Mother, I naturally know who this tax reform is targeting... First of all, I investigated Cai Shoucai's Chamber of Commerce and indeed, Xie Xunfeng has shares in it... But it's only a part of it. Cai Shoucai's Chamber of Commerce is indeed doing well... Even without the tax reform, it can still earn us a considerable amount of income every year. Moreover, the fine salt workshop they run has already cooperated with Beiliang and Dazhou... Our royal family also makes a lot of money..."
"If we rashly carry out tax reforms, it will undoubtedly be like killing the goose that lays the golden eggs..." Xiao Shentian said.
After hearing what Xiao Shentian said, the Queen Mother smiled bitterly and said, "My good Majesty, you are really too naive... Huitong Trading Company is an example. Once a business is ruled by a certain trading company, the imperial power will be a little afraid of them..."
