Quick Wear: Everyone knows I am a good person

Emperor Jiaheng opened his mouth, "You found out?"

"That means the official in charge of grain seeds in the Ministry of Revenue made a mistake. What does it have to do with us?"

Shu Jiao nonchalantly shifted the blame, saying, "Besides, we can sell the ripe and unripe ones together. As long as one plant grows, our seeds will be fine."

The seeds are fine, so whose fault is it that they didn't grow?

It's all their fault.

They failed to take good care of their crops, resulting in a poor harvest, so how dare they blame others?

Emperor Jiaheng naturally understood the rest of what was said.

After understanding, his expression became even more subtle.

After a few seconds, he nodded. "Great idea!"

Forget about reputation and morality; this method might just add 5 or 6 to his empire!

"Hehehe~"

Shu Jiao smiled innocently.

Following Shu Jiao's train of thought, Emperor Jiaheng continued, "In that case, I can also send weapons. It just so happens that the Armory Administration has a batch of obsolete and obsolete weapons stored there."

After clearing out this inventory, the house feels much cleaner.

"deliver?"

Shu Jiao shook her head. "What's given away isn't worth much; we still have to sell it. And it has to be an official from the Ministry of War who sells it."

The Ministry of War officials...

Oh yo~

Emperor Jiaheng and Sun Wenzhong quickly figured it out.

"Yes, yes, yes, it has to be people from the Ministry of War who sell them."

Sun Wenzhong nodded.

We must make those people believe that they bribed the Ministry of War and illegally purchased the most advanced weapons of our Great Kang Dynasty at high prices.

We can't let them know that those are scrap materials.

There are also grain seeds.

The Ministry of Revenue can also sell the grain seeds.

Whatever happens then will truly have nothing to do with Emperor Jiaheng.

It was the vassal state that wanted to buy it; they were the ones who were tricked. This way, if they dare to ask for it again, Emperor Jiaheng can easily swindle them once more.

Hohoho~

For a moment, the hall was filled with cheerful laughter.

Emperor Jiaheng looked at Shu Jiao and felt very gratified.

When Shu Jiao returned, she felt the sky was bluer, the clouds were whiter, even the air was fresher, and her mood was no longer irritable. In short—

He was happy!

And what about Shu Jiao?

Following Emperor Jiaheng, he came up with more and more wicked ideas.

Emperor Jiaheng was also happy to discuss matters with her.

Compared to her, Sun Wenzhong seemed like an honest man who couldn't keep up with her pace.

Sun Wenzhong: ...

Honest people are good.

He likes to be an honest person.

Sometimes, when Shu Jiao opened her mouth, he felt incredibly kind-hearted. He was so out of place with those two scheming women!

Life just went on like that.

The following year, Ren Dong brought good news: she had given birth to twins, a boy and a girl.

Shu Jiao took a look.

Tsk~

Were there no good-looking human babies when they first came into existence?

One of the children gave her a jade pendant and casually stuffed a box of gold leaves into Honeysuckle's hand, saying, "Keep it, it's free."

Honeysuckle chuckled weakly, "You're still the same."

Shu Jiao shrugged slightly, found a chair and sat down. "How's your husband? If he mistreats you, tell me and I'll get you a new one."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard some faint noises behind him.

Turning her head, she saw Ren Dong's honest husband standing outside, looking uneasy with a very subtle expression.

Shu Jiao glanced at him without changing her expression, and even nodded quite kindly.

The honest husband was stunned for a couple of seconds, wondering if he had just imagined it.

"Pfft~"

Ren Dong couldn't help but laugh out loud, clutching her aching stomach. "Jiao Jiao, stop teasing him."

"Just kidding."

Shu Jiao curled her lips into a smile, but her tone was unusually serious.

Honeysuckle understood what she meant and said softly, "He treats me very well. If one day he treats me badly, I will definitely find you and find someone new."

Replace it with a new one.

What about the old ones?

The only option is to bury him in the wilderness.

Ren Dong gently squeezed Shu Jiao's hand to reassure her.

She had served in the palace for several years, so while she might not be able to scheme against people, she would certainly not hold back when it came to being ruthless.

After a brief exchange of glances, Shu Jiao lowered her eyes and poked the baby's face.

"If you like, I'll pick one and give it to you."

Honeysuckle waved her hand magnanimously, "If you don't like any of them, then I'll have another one for you."

Shu Jiao: ...

There's no need to be so generous.

After chatting for a while, seeing that Ren Dong looked tired, Shu Jiao went back to the palace to gossip with Emperor Jia Heng. Occasionally she would go to see Ren Dong, and when she had nothing to do, she would go to Jiangnan again and again.

"No, why do you keep going to Jiangnan? Who exactly lives in Jiangnan?"

Emperor Jiaheng was displeased.

Three years.

In the past three years, he has only been to Jiangnan once, while Shu Jiao has been there six, seven, eight, nine, or even ten times!

"Don't try to fool me with that nonsense about gathering intelligence. Tell me, what are you going to Jiangnan for?"

Emperor Jiaheng asked unhappily.

After he leaves, how many more days will it be before he sees his close friends again?

And there's also San'er, a friend of the gossip lovers!

"In Jiangnan, there are beautiful women."

Shu Jiao was very frank, "Your Majesty, I'll just take a quick look and come right back."

"Why don't you just raise it in the capital?"

Emperor Jiaheng subconsciously asked a question in return.

He was taken aback after asking the question, and Sun Wenzhong was also taken aback.

A beauty?

You, Shu Jiao, look so innocent and aloof from beautiful women, but it turns out you're keeping a mistress on the side?

Want to take another look?

Nobody believes you'll come back after just a couple of glances.

Shu Jiao looked at him with a subtle expression, "Then, will I really be raised in the capital?"

Emperor Jiaheng: ...

He pondered for a full two minutes before finally nodding, "Behave yourself, I'll give you an estate."

After saying that, he turned his head to look at Sun Wenzhong and said, "I will also give you an estate."

Sun Wenzhong: ? ? ?

Does he raise them too?

This... isn't appropriate, is it?

"You can go to Jiangnan this time, but leave San'er with me."

Emperor Jiaheng continued.

"That won't work."

Shu Jiao patted 003's little head, "I will never be separated from San'er."

"Yes, yes, my sister and I will always be together~"

003 flapped its wings and made a heart shape with its hands, "Sister, I'll go outside the palace tomorrow to pick out a beauty for you."

After this round of banter, Shu Jiao ultimately did not go to Jiangnan. The next day, 003 did indeed leave the palace to select beauties for her, who were then raised in the estate bestowed upon her by Emperor Jiaheng.

Emperor Jiaheng was very generous.

The property they offered was the Royal Hot Spring Resort, an entire mountain owned by Shu Jiao.

After several years of this, Emperor Jiaheng's health gradually deteriorated.

As he aged, a power struggle for the throne began to erupt in the imperial court.

At this time, Shu Jiao's greatest pleasure was to drag Sun Wenzhong to Emperor Jiaheng every night and complain about the bizarre and outrageous things her sons did.

For example, "You invited someone to dinner, but they had an allergic reaction to the food."

For example, "After going to great lengths to win over an official, the whole operation backfired, and the person almost thought they had been recruited as a spy by a competitor"...

Because Shu Jiao's news was so timely, Emperor Jiaheng had no suspicion of his sons at all.

Every day, when he went to court, he would watch his sons fight until they were bloodied and battered, which he considered like watching a grand opera.

Should we be wary?

Should we take precautions?

He knows exactly what his son says in his sleep every night, so he can't even feel nervous if he wants to.

All I can say is that Shu Jiao provides an overwhelming sense of security.
