Quick Wear: That Female Supporting Character is Super Strong
Chapter 175: The "Substitute Marriage of a Concubine" in the Two Male Protagonists' W
His aura of majesty without even getting angry was like he was a completely different person compared to just now.
The shadow guard, who had already gotten used to the terrifying pressure from his master, unconsciously lowered his body even lower.
"Master, this is the record of the court this morning."
Xi took the record book from the shadow guard with a sullen face and began to read it.
The topics were mainly those which were not new, nothing more than who desperately advised him to expand his harem and add more children to the royal family as soon as possible.
Someone else also suggested that the noble lady of a certain family was both virtuous and talented, and was the perfect candidate to enter the imperial palace.
Each hand stretched out longer than the other.
"Humph! It seems that I let them live too comfortably on weekdays. They spend the whole day thinking about how to interfere in my private affairs."
The shadow guard certainly didn't dare to respond to the master's sarcasm, and could only try his best to reduce his presence again and again.
So as not to make the master even more unhappy.
Apart from the various verbal framing and tripping among the various forces in the court in order to interfere in the affairs of the harem, Xi focused more on issues related to people's livelihood and border defense.
Under his governance in recent years, many miscellaneous taxes have been abolished. In addition, there has been no war on the border, so the people in Yao Kingdom can live and work in peace.
There are no man-made disasters, but there are occasional natural disasters.
Just like Ye County, although it is summer now, Ye County in the west has not seen a drop of rain for two or three months, and the drought is getting worse.
In Jiangcheng County in the south, it has been raining continuously, and the water levels of rivers and lakes are about to exceed the highest water levels recorded in previous years.
Obviously, he needed to carefully consider the selection of people to be sent to the local area to provide disaster relief...
Continuing to read, I actually saw a court official mentioning the Longxing Chamber of Commerce, which had suddenly emerged in Yao Country recently.
Without any evidence at all, he brazenly slandered the Chamber of Commerce in the court, saying that it might be set up by spies from other countries with the intention of endangering the foundation of Yao Country.
This nonsense made Xi's face instantly become extremely gloomy.
Let’s look at the person who raised this topic. He was the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and a disciple of Duke Yin.
Xi just recalled it briefly and remembered the entanglement of interests involved.
The person in charge of purchasing silk fabrics for the royal family among the imperial merchants today is the family of the wife of the Left Vice Minister.
Obviously, his wife has touched the interests of these people, and they are trying to frame his wife.
They want to use the government to suppress dissidents without first finding out who they want to slander.
In that case, let's not do business anymore.
"Have someone pay attention to see if Madam is doing a fabric business. If so, have the palace find a reason to take back the original fabric business rights, and then re-bid it in a way that will not arouse Madam's suspicion and hand it over to her."
"Yes! Master!" The shadow guard immediately took the order and went out to contact other shadow guards.
As soon as he left, other shadow guards took his place and waited on the side to take orders.
The process was very orderly, and it was obvious that this operation was not the first time.
After Xi finished dealing with the agenda of the morning court, he also reviewed the memorials that the shadow guards had packed.
While he was busy handling state affairs while Yue Luoluo was away from home, Yue Luoluo was naturally not idle either.
In order to go home early to be with her insecure man, she had already started working overtime to check the accounts while she was still in the carriage on the way to the teahouse.
She passed on all the things that needed to be arranged in advance one by one through Yinglan, the female guard and right-hand assistant assigned by Xi.
In this way, the work efficiency was more than doubled.
Fortunately, including Yinglan, the people selected from Longxing Villa are all capable enough.
Not only are his skills outstanding, but his loyalty and execution are also top-notch.
Basically, she can complete all the tasks she assigns accurately and perfectly.
For example, if she asked them to renovate the shop, she could give the order in the morning and inspect it the next morning.
If she wanted to find an embroiderer to make ready-made clothes, they could find the best one in the city for her in a very short time.
It can be said that this team is definitely the most powerful one she has encountered since she traveled through so many hours and spaces.
But in addition to this, Yue Luoluo also realized that someone seemed to be secretly protecting her.
She was able to pull off such a big commotion in such a short time so smoothly. According to past experience, her peers who wanted to ruin her business should have lined up from one end of the city to the other.
But the fact that this group of profit-seeking businessmen can still hold back until now is very unusual.
It was hard for Yue Luoluo not to notice this.
He eliminated the few people he knew in this plane.
In the end, there are only two possible candidates: Lu Qingping, Marquis of Zhenyuan, and her husband.
But she and Lu Qingping were just friends after all, and their relationship was not very deep, so the person who could help her could only be her man.
Xi thought he was being very secretive, but unfortunately he still underestimated the sensitivity of his wife.

Moxin Teahouse
Yue Luoluo arrived at the agreed location on time.
Unexpectedly, the person she was having business talks with this time was even more relaxed than her.
She had already arrived at the private room that had been reserved in advance and had even had her tea, but she still hadn't seen anyone.
There was only one shopkeeper who arrived earlier and stood aside, smiling apologetically.
"Miss Luoyue, I'm really sorry. Our young master was delayed by something and has not been able to keep the appointment yet."
"It's okay, I can wait."
Yue Luoluo curled the corners of her mouth in a forced smile.
If this wasn't a big business deal and the target wasn't the owner of a bank with branches all over Yao Country, she wouldn't have wasted her time drinking tea here.
Finally, after waiting in the teahouse for a full quarter of an hour, the other party finally showed up.
Seeing that it was a familiar face, the fake business smile on her face almost broke.
"Lolo?!"
Obviously, the person on the other side saw that it was her and there was obvious surprise on his face.
"Master Hou."
Yue Luoluo stood up politely and bowed to the other party.
After all, it is an ancient plane, so the proper etiquette must be observed.
She had no intention of being a troublemaker and challenging the social system here.
As a tasker, if he can keep a low profile and save trouble, he naturally won't be stupid enough to make an unnecessary high profile.
In response to this, Lu Qingping shook his head helplessly, "We agreed that the names would match each other later."
"Then..." Yue Luoluo saw that he really wanted her to call him by his name, instead of being full of hypocritical courtesy, so she readily changed her name to "Qingping."
"It's been several days since we last met." So when he saw the other person just now, he was a little slow to react.
Seeing that Lu Qingping was very emotional about this, Yue Luoluo didn't know how much of his sincerity was.
After all, the guy sitting opposite her is the busy protagonist in the plot.
So now she just continued with what he said.
"I can see you are really busy."
"is not that right."
The opponents have been making moves recently, especially the Yin family. Ever since the old Duke became incapable, the new Duke has been completely unrestrained in the court and has been extremely rampant.
This forced him to spend more time suppressing these people.
Speaking of which, there were people who impeached Longxing Chamber of Commerce during the morning court today, and they were from Duke Yin's faction.
I didn’t expect that the president of Longxing Chamber of Commerce, Luoyue, is actually Yue Luoluo.
How capable is this little girl in front of me? Not only has she achieved such accomplishments in martial arts at such a young age, but now she has also demonstrated such an amazing talent for business.
Just like an inexhaustible treasure, she refreshed his understanding of her again and again, making it difficult for Lu Qingping not to become more interested in her.
