After the whole sect traveled to ancient times, I led the rebellion

—— Shengjing ——

"Lord Fan, how has the emperor been these days?"

"The emperor is seriously ill. He must have been poisoned."

The officials in the capital each took their positions. Fan Huifu was among the loyal ministers. He was originally a fourth-rank official but was promoted several ranks higher. Now he was the chief minister of the cabinet.

Logically speaking, his official position could not be so high.

But the number of loyal officials in the court is decreasing.

Emperor Tianchi had no one else to use, so he went against all odds and promoted Fan Huifu all the way.

The emperor's power was declining and the eunuchs and relatives of the emperor were in power.

The power of eunuchs and relatives of the emperor's wife was widespread in the court, suppressing the emperor.

The crown prince died in prison, and now the emperor is reluctant to issue an edict to appoint a crown prince.

The eunuchs and the relatives of the emperor were waiting for the emperor's death to support the prince they supported to ascend the throne.

In addition to the crown prince, there are five other princes.

The eldest prince Shangguan Yi's wife has a powerful family, who are members of the queen's clan.

The second is the third prince Shangguan Bingjian. The third prince has always stood on the side of the eunuchs.

The seventh prince, Shangguan Mo, commands a large army, but he is stationed at the border all year round and has not returned to Beijing for a long time.

The thirteenth prince, Shangguan Sheng'an, is only eight years old and is the emperor's favorite, but his mother's family is from the prime minister's lineage.

The last prince is the Eighth Prince Shangguan Ziying, who is sixteen years old and has no power or influence. His biological mother is a palace maid who died mysteriously after giving birth to the Eighth Prince. Now he lives in the palace like the Thirteenth Prince, but does not have a prince's mansion and is considered a marginal figure.

The officials in the court each placed their wealth on the first four princes.

Fan Huifu and others did not make their attitudes clear and were gradually excluded by other court officials.

Now that the emperor is seriously ill, they are repeatedly suppressed.

The court was in a bleak state. Although other cities had long been in turmoil, Shengjing was still a city of its own.

Just looking at the four streets of Shengjing, the long streets are still prosperous.

Jiang He led the caravan through various cities along the way. As soon as they approached the official road of a city, they would change into ordinary escort uniforms.

Arriving in Shengjing, Jiang He looked at the city walls and gates again, and suddenly felt that the city walls of Anping seemed to be even higher.

As soon as she arrived at the city gate, she stuffed a silver ingot into the hands of the officers and soldiers.

So she naturally led the team to the front and quickly passed the search.

It was much faster than in Anping, but Jiang He did not look happy. She looked at the loosely guarded Shengjing city gate with a solemn expression on her face.

War is raging everywhere. What if spies from other cities infiltrate the city?

But she was only worried for a moment. After all, whatever she could think of, her superiors could naturally think of as well.

She is just a businessman and has no right to interfere.

As soon as Jiang He entered Shengjing, he behaved himself.

What she didn't expect was that tolls and head taxes had increased again.

Jiang He couldn't help but miss Anping. Anping didn't have all kinds of taxes, only one commodity tax.

Considering the large number of dignitaries in Shengjing, Jiang He felt that this trip was not in vain, so he paid the tax.

Also required to be paid was "filial piety silver", officials in the area where the stall was located, and the officers and soldiers in charge of the area.

After everything was arranged, Jiang He finally set up his stall.

Part of the goods were sold at the stall, and part of the goods were handed over to shops that she had previously been on good terms with for them to sell.

Although the latter still required a certain fee, the sellers were either rich or noble, and it was best to sell the goods she brought from Anping there.

Jiang He went to bed peacefully and spent the next day touring Shengjing. This year's Shengjing was similar to the Shengjing she had seen two years ago.

Still so prosperous.

The people in other cities are not like Shengjing.

Even the villages far away from Shengjing City are out of tune with the prosperity here, not to mention the cities outside Shengjing.

Jiang He's eyes suddenly dimmed when he thought of the poor people who were still struggling for food.

If she had never been to Anping, she might have been indifferent, but she knew how the people in Anping lived.

Jiang He shook his head and let go of those thoughts.

She was shopping and purchasing goods while her eldest and second brothers followed behind her, carrying the goods.

Jiang He had a unique vision and could tell at a glance how much profit could be made by reselling those goods to other cities.

The three of them were walking along the streets.

When arriving at the next shop, Jiang He heard a call from behind.

"Jiang family husband, stay!"

Jiang He's elder brother Jiang Zhong turned around.

It is easy for women to suffer losses when doing business outside, so Jiang Zhong has always been the one who negotiates the price of goods in Shengjing.

Jiang Zhong turned around and looked at the person who came.

The one who called the three members of the Jiang family was the shop owner they had contacted.

Anping's goods were displayed on Xuanwu Road, one of the four busiest streets. They had only been there for one day when the shopkeeper came.

Jiang He pursed his lips, wondering if there was something wrong with Anping's goods.

This was the first time that the Jiang family brought goods from Anping to Shengjing for sale. Jiang He glanced at Shopkeeper Qian calmly.

Shopkeeper Qian had a white and plump face and a slightly fat body. His body swayed greatly when he walked. He was worried about the message his clerk would bring, so he found out the news about the three members of the Jiang family and came running.

When he came in front of the three people, Shopkeeper Qian gasped:

"Finally I found you."

Jiang Zhong looked at Shopkeeper Qian with concern:

"Manager Qian, what's wrong?"

"You may not know yet, the batch of goods you brought yesterday..."

After saying a few words, Shopkeeper Qian stopped to catch his breath for a while, which made the three members of the Jiang family very anxious.

Jiang Zhong: "Manager Qian, you go ahead."

Qian supported his knees with both hands and paused for a while before saying:

"The batch of goods you brought was all sold out within one day!"

? !

"Manager Qian, please say it again." Jiang He came forward hurriedly.

Shopkeeper Qian glanced at Jiang He and repeated what he had just said.

After hearing this, the three of them looked at each other in shock.

It's only been one day, how come they are all sold out?

In previous years, it would take more than ten days to sell most of the goods displayed in Qian Zhanggui's shop. By the time Jiang He and others left, it would be considered a great success if all the goods were sold.

Jiang He calmed down. She didn't care about anything else. Before Jiang Zhong replied to Shopkeeper Qian, she spoke:

"We still have a lot of goods. I hope Manager Qian can help take care of them."

Jiang He winked after he finished speaking, and Jiang Zhong finally reacted:

"Manager Qian, please forgive me for taking such trouble. I will definitely reward you handsomely one day."

"That's easy to say, but where did you get those rare goods? Many officials have come to the Qian family's shop, waiting to get those tissues."

Shopkeeper Qian breathed a sigh of relief. Today, many wives of officials came to his shop:

“As long as there is stock, it’s good. As long as there is stock, it’s good.

Mr. Jiang, you have to send someone to the store to restock the goods today."

"it is good."

After seeing off Shopkeeper Qian, Jiang He turned around and went back to his residence without even scanning the goods.
