Traveling through ancient times: starting with live streaming

Yuan Qi is not so optimistic, and even needs to think more carefully.

Therefore, she said: "Please rest assured, Your Highness Prince Yi, I am here to ensure that the Yuan family will do its best to compensate or reduce the losses caused to Your Highness Prince Yi by this incident."

There was little hope of overturning the verdict, but Prince Yi actually used a bet to have a chance to have his father acquitted, which shocked her greatly.

Zhou Chang believed he was 99% sure, and the corners of his mouth curled up with confidence: "Thank you Miss Yuan for your kindness, but this is a battle that must be won."

"Why is Your Highness Prince Yi so sure?" Yuan Qi certainly hoped it was true, but he still couldn't help but have doubts.

"Because this is the best solution I can come up with," Zhou Chang told the truth.

Yuan Qi was more concerned about the actual situation: "Your Highness, this is a big gamble, what are the chances of winning?"

Doing business is sometimes like gambling. When you are at your wit's end and there seems to be no other way out, taking a risk and taking a gamble can often lead to a bright future.

But doing business is not gambling. If you win the bet, it will be a huge change and you can win it all back in one go.

What if I lose?

This time what he lost was not only money, but also his father's life.

"Of course the chances of winning are 100%..." Zhou Chang wanted to say 100%, but somehow, when he looked into Yuan Qi's eyes, his heart suddenly tightened.

Yuan Qi's big eyes were as bright as autumn water, with ripples dancing in the air, and they were still filled with worry and anxiety about the unknown.

"I don't know how to fight, but this war has been going on for almost three years. I heard that victory was in sight some time ago, but everything changed overnight." Yuan Qi did not notice the change.

Earlier, she had heard others analyze that the best outcome of her father's case was to save his life, but at the very least he would be sentenced to exile or imprisonment, and at the worst his property would be confiscated and the Yuan family would be destroyed.

Later, even this best-case scenario was shattered, and his father was sentenced to death by beheading. So now the Yuan family should have the courage to take a risk, but they still couldn't help but worry.

Changing rapidly?

Zhou Chang was vaguely not so sure anymore.

"Your Highness Prince Yi?" Yuan Qi called again.

"Hmm?" Zhou Chang woke up as if from a dream.

Yuan Qi asked: "Your Highness, can you tell me about the bet in the Imperial Study today?"

Time was short, and the Yuan family had connections in the court, but they were limited to asking for information. As soon as he heard the news in the morning, Yuan Qi rushed to Prince Yi's mansion without stopping.

She was still discussing the matter with He Xi, but since she had only heard the news indirectly, it was not as reliable as getting first-hand information from Prince Yi.

Zhou Chang roughly recounted what happened in the imperial study, omitting the scene where he was throwing a tantrum.

After hearing this, Yuan Qi's eyes became even more worried: "Your Highness, His Royal Highness Prince Duan did not bet with you, but asked for more troops?"

"Yes." Zhou Chang didn't notice it at that time, but now when it was mentioned again, his heart skipped a beat.

Yuan Qi frowned and said, "So, in the end, Your Majesty agreed to the bet with Your Highness, but did not agree to Prince Duan's request to send reinforcements to the front line?"

This was the situation that He Xi analyzed for her by counting on his fingers on the way here.

"Not right, not right. If Your Highness loses and really leaves the Imperial City, you will never have another chance..." The words that Zhong Yu had just yelled at her were still ringing in her ears.

Zhou Chang slapped his thigh, she was taking it for granted.

Lin Guo must not only persist in fighting, but also send more troops.

"Your Highness Prince Yi?" Yuan Qi saw the unpredictable expression on Zhou Chang's face.

"Ah..." Zhou Chang came back to his senses again, "That's right. The ministers in the court are divided into two factions, one advocates peace talks, and the other advocates continuing to send troops to reinforce. As for whether to negotiate peace or send reinforcements, Your Majesty has not yet decided."

Upon hearing this, Yuan Qi frowned even more tightly: "Then Your Highness, do you think His Majesty will send more reinforcements in the end?"

"Since we have made this bet, whether Your Majesty agrees to send reinforcements or not, I will ask Your Majesty for permission." Zhou Chang clenched his teeth.

I thought the problem could be solved in one go, but it turned out not to be as simple as I thought.

Yuan Qi still has clearer ideas than her.

Yuan Qi suppressed her doubts and asked, "Since Your Highness Prince Yi is so confident, I believe him too. But I wonder, since this war concerns my father's life, what can the Yuan family do to win this war?"

Ever since the day before yesterday, Prince Yi offered to help her.

Afterwards, she also inquired carefully about Prince Yi.

I originally thought that Prince Yi had only two purposes: either he wanted to offset the damage to the jade pendant, or he knew that Long Yuyuan's family was very wealthy and wanted to benefit from it.

Even so, Yuan Qi decided to give it a try.

Unexpectedly, Prince Yi actually came up with an idea to make a bet with the emperor.

But the risk is too great, what is he trying to achieve?

"It's true." Zhou Chang slammed the table and stood up.

She couldn't make any decisions about increasing the number of troops at the moment, but once she started thinking, she suddenly thought of another option.

"What?" Yuan Qi was startled and asked immediately.

"Did the Yuan family originally have business dealings with the Mirage Kingdom?" Zhou Chang asked. This was what she knew from He Xi's memory.

"This..." Yuan Qi was cautious and didn't know how to answer.

The business between the Yuan family and the Mirage Kingdom was not publicized or made public.

Zhou Chang comforted her, "Miss Yuan, don't worry. It's not just your Yuan family that has business dealings with Lin and Shen. War is war, and business is business. Your father's case this time only mentioned the buying and selling of Kabuki, and he was not convicted for doing business with Shen."

Yuan Qi did not ask how Zhou Chang knew that the Yuan family had business dealings with the Mirage Kingdom.

Whether she was asked or not, she had already admitted the matter, so she only said: "That being said, my father cannot escape the blame this time. It is hard to say if it is not because he still has business dealings with the Mirage Country, so the Yuan Family has stopped doing business there."

"Well..., there is no need for that. On the contrary..." Zhou Chang tapped his fingers on the table and said while thinking, "The Yuan family mainly exports medicinal materials to the Mirage Country. If the Yuan family doesn't do it, there are other families that will. So why not let the Yuan family take over this business alone."

"Take charge of everything?" Yuan Qi didn't understand.

Zhou Chang didn't know if he was taking it for granted, but he still said: "If the Yuan family can monopolize the business of exporting medicinal materials to the Shen Kingdom and cut off their supply of medicinal materials, then wouldn't it be equivalent to helping our Lin Kingdom? After all, war will produce casualties. If the wounded have no medicine to treat them, they can't think of continuing the war."

She didn't intend to mention the fact that the King of Mirage was critically ill.

This matter was originally a confidential matter that was overheard. The fewer people who know about it, the better.

Yuan Qi also thought it made sense: "Your Highness is right, but how much effect can a monopoly of medicinal materials have?"

"How big of an effect it will have depends on the extent of the Yuan family's monopoly. If all the precious medicinal materials and life-extending medicinal materials not only cannot flow into the Mirage Kingdom, but also disappear from the Mirage Kingdom's market, do you think it will be a big deal?" Zhou Chang originally thought that the Yuan family was just a wealthy businessmen, but after having been one for a few days, he could also understand a thing or two from their memory.

The Yuan family was actually hundreds of times larger than she thought.

Yuan Qi's eyes lit up and she nodded repeatedly: "I understand what Your Highness means, and I will definitely go all out." "The late emperor's entrepreneurship is not even halfway through and we cannot stop here.
