Royal daughter-in-law makes money

One hundred and sixty-seven

He had known for a long time that those boxes were filled with silver.

Suddenly, Chu Yuanming thought that since his son married Qiao Anan, his money-making ability seemed to have been ignited.

After all, my son in the past seemed to be an insulator to gold and silver. No piece of silver could ever stay on him overnight.

"Your Majesty, what are these things that the Second Prince brought back?" Xiao Qinian asked curiously.

"You'll know in a moment." Chu Yuanming was in a good mood.

Just wait a moment and blind these ministers.

He also got the news that the second brother had specifically asked the people of Nanyue Kingdom to exchange the money for cash.

So the things in that box are all real silver ingots.

"Has anyone checked what the second prince of Chu Yuan State brought back?" Zhou Chengzhi, who was hiding in the crowd, asked his subordinates beside him.

"Your Highness, I heard that Chu Yuanguo asked Nanyue for three million taels of silver in compensation. The things in these boxes may be that silver." The subordinate on the side quickly replied in a low voice.

"What three million taels? How could the Nanyue Kingdom be willing to give them so much silver?" Zhou Chengzhi was shocked and felt that the Nanyue Kingdom would never do such a thing.

These days, in order to prevent the people of Chuyuan from doubting his identity, he has not contacted the people of Xijing.

Today, I finally managed to come out and meet with my subordinates while there were many people around and no one was paying attention.

But he didn't expect that he would miss such important news.

He couldn't understand what Chu Yuan State had done to make Nanyue State willingly pay so much money.

In his opinion, the Chu Yuan Kingdom was no match for the Nanyue Kingdom.

Even if the princess of Nanyue Kingdom did such a thing, as long as she returned to Nanyue Kingdom, Chuyuan Kingdom would have no power to fight back.

Moreover, he didn't think that the Nanyue Kingdom would be willing to pay so much silver to redeem a princess.

After all, what the royal family lacks the least is probably princesses.

Which royal family doesn’t have seven, eight, nine or ten princesses?

"Your Highness, it is said that the Chuyuan Kingdom has a very powerful weapon. They tied the weapon to a bow and arrow and shot it at the city wall of the Nanyue Kingdom, instantly blowing up the city wall of the Nanyue Kingdom." The subordinate said quickly.

"What?" Zhou Chengzhi felt terrible after hearing this, but when he heard the power of this weapon, how come it was so similar to their cannons?

"Is the news reliable?" Zhou Chengzhi asked again.

"It's absolutely true. Our spies saw with their own eyes that people from Chuyuan State used that weapon against the city wall of Nanyue State." The subordinate said again.

"Spy, did you say whether that thing is similar to our cannon?" Zhou Chengzhi asked quickly again.

After all, it is rumored that the cannons of their Xijing Kingdom are just as powerful as this.

However, he also knew that the cannon was not as powerful as rumored.

Now, the cannon in their hands is just an empty frame and cannot exert its original power at all.

The method that could make the robe extremely powerful had long been lost in Xijing Kingdom.

"Your Highness, our spies said that thing is very small and can only be tied to a bow and arrow. It should be different from our cannon." The subordinate quickly shook his head and said, after all, everyone in their Xijing Kingdom knew that their cannons were very bulky.

It takes more than a dozen people to lift it up and put it on a special vehicle each time.

However, although their thing is so small, its power is comparable to their cannons.

"Tell me, if Chu Yuanguo really has such a powerful thing, will he still be afraid of our cannons?" After Zhou Chengzhi asked this question, he felt very frightened.

When they think about the fact that Chu Yuan State has weapons that are more powerful than their Xijing State, can they still suppress Chu Yuan State?

If this is the case, their purpose of coming to Chuyuan State to seek peace this time may have turned from fake to real!

"Have they talked about the princess's marriage?" Zhou Chengzhi asked another question.

"Your Highness, the princess doesn't want to marry Lord Ren and is arguing with Lord Suo." The subordinate said quickly.

"What's going on?" Zhou Chengzhi frowned, thinking that his sister was really spoiled.

"The princess was unwilling to marry Lord Ren, so Lord Suo locked the princess in a room in the post station and would not let her leave." The subordinate could only say something evasive.

"Nonsense, how can she refuse to marry if she wants to or not?" Zhou Chengzhi said a little irritably.

"Your Highness, Lord Suo is still waiting for you to go back and take charge of the situation. After all, you also know that the princess is unwilling to listen to Lord Suo." The subordinate said quickly.

"Have they done anything unusual during the days I was away?" Zhou Chengzhi asked again. This time he was asking the people from Chu Yuan State whether they had noticed that he was not at the post station.

"When you were away, Lord Suo asked Xiaowu to disguise himself as you, but he didn't attract the attention of the Chu Yuan people." The subordinate said quickly.

"Okay, I'll go back with you later." Zhou Chengzhi nodded with satisfaction.

Zhou Chengzhi didn't know that the shadow guards arranged by Chu Yuanming had been following him all the time.

At this moment, he was standing next to Zhou Chengzhi and heard everything Zhou Chengzhi and his subordinate said clearly.

Zhou Chengzhi thought that the safest place was the most dangerous place, so he did not take people to the hidden places in the teahouse. He was just standing on the street, pretending to be a passerby, pretending to watch the things Chu Haojue brought back. He did not avoid anyone and talked to his subordinates on the street.

The shadow guard disguised as an ordinary citizen was also shocked after hearing what Zhou Chengzhi and his subordinates said.

He didn't expect that this person's identity was actually the third prince of Xijing Kingdom.

Yin Yingwei couldn't help but sigh, why do princes and princesses from other countries like to disguise themselves as guards or maids and come to their Chu Yuan Kingdom?

However, Xijing Kingdom had better not have any other thoughts, otherwise, the fate of Nanyue Kingdom today will be the fate of Xijing Kingdom tomorrow.

Palace of Heavenly Purity

The ministers looked at Chu Haojue with great curiosity, and they were even more curious about the things Chu Haojue brought back.

"Father, I have fulfilled my mission and brought back a total of three million taels of silver as compensation to us from the Kingdom of Nanyue." Chu Haojue's words were like a thunderclap.

Everyone in the court was so shocked that they were stunned.

What did the Second Prince say just now?

Compensation from the Nanyue Kingdom.

Three million taels of silver.

How is this possible?

Even if Nanyue Kingdom didn't ask them for silver, it would be good enough. How could they be willing to give them three million taels of silver?

They really don't want to believe this fact.

"Your Highness, the Second Prince, you are not taking the Qiao family's money to make up the numbers, are you?" Lin Qi looked at Chu Haojue with suspicion and asked.

Chu Haojue was almost stumped by Lin Qi's question.

He used the Qiao family's money to pretend it was compensation from the Nanyue Kingdom?

As for doing this?
