The little ancestor of the family

"This Xiao Huaian," King Rui thought, "really has no mercy at all."

Xiao Huaian continued mercilessly, "If it's just love for the house and the dog, then it's fine. I hope the prince doesn't fall in love with my wife."

"I……"

King Rui's old face turned red. "I'm already this old, how could I still have that kind of thought?"

Xiao Huaian bowed to King Rui, but he didn't give in at all. "Maybe I heard something wrong, but I still want to say that no matter who it is, if they dare to mess with my wife, I will never let them go."

King Rui didn't know how to explain it to him, so he said, "Okay, I know what you're thinking, but you don't have to tell me. First, I won't think that way, and second, I don't have time to help you with the housework. You can handle it yourself."

"Don't worry, Prince Rui. I will never trouble others with this matter. But Prince Rui,"

Xiao Huaian took the opportunity to say, "Now that things here are almost done, should I go out for a walk?"

"You're leaving now?" Prince Rui brought the topic back to the topic, "The Emperor issued a new order today, wanting to make a set of farm tools for the autumn harvest and assign one to each county government office.

The ministers are complaining again, saying that the treasury is empty and they really can't afford to squander money any more!"

"You call this squandering?" Xiao Huaian was puzzled. "The emperor has neither built a private residence nor three palaces and six courtyards. He is purely seeking benefits for the people. Someone calls this a waste?"

"After all, Daliang is short of ironware, and taxes have been reduced this year, so it's normal for officials to have such thoughts!"

"Didn't King Rui tell them?" Xiao Huaian asked.

"Tell them what?"

"Tell them about the iron mine?"

Xiao Huaian said: "Hasn't the Northern Frontier already reported last month's revenue? Just from buying iron ore, they earned several million taels of silver. Who on earth still thinks that our Daliang treasury is in deficit?"

"Shouldn't this kind of thing be kept low-key?"

King Rui said, "The silver is still on its way back to the capital, so I won't let anyone know about it. Even if it is brought back in the future, I won't let anyone know about it. Some things don't need to be known by so many people."

"In this case, I think Prince Rui will have to endure this hardship for a while. Anyway, the wealth will not be exposed. As long as the Ministry of Revenue can keep this secret from top to bottom, it doesn't matter if people question it.

As for the iron used to make farm tools, it cannot be hidden even if we want to. Let the people know that we have a new iron mine in Daliang, and everyone will be happy. "

King Rui seemed to remember something and said to Xiao Huaian, "By the way, there are envoys from foreign countries who want to buy iron ore, and I have arranged for someone to send them over.

Since you are going to Northern Xinjiang, I will leave this matter to you."

Xiao Huaian frowned, "Didn't you say that I could go out and relax?"

King Rui snorted, "Just be content. I'm trapped here now. I can't go anywhere and I can't even sleep well. You really have much less to do than I do."

"Okay, since this is all for the emperor, I have no choice but to accept this matter."

Xiao Huaian compromised, but he was also very happy that his plan to travel with Ye Xinran could finally be realized.

The two pillars of the country were struggling to move forward, while the instigator of this situation, Chang'an, was still in the Yangxin Palace thinking about what new ideas he should come up with.
