Ye Yuanan turned his head and stared straight at the closed door, with a complicated light flashing in his eyes!
At this moment, he felt like he had become a canary imprisoned in this magnificent cage. Although he looked bright and beautiful on the outside, his heart was filled with pain and helplessness!
In ten days, he would have to step back into Wan Qingjiao's horrible cage and continue to live a life where he had no control over his own affairs. When he thought of this, he couldn't help but feel sad, and his eyes gradually became moist!
…………
"Xiaochuan, I wonder how you are doing today? Have you been studying hard and practicing calligraphy diligently?"
When Zheng Changchuan heard Wan Qingyan's concerned words, he couldn't help but feel happy, and a happy smile immediately appeared on his face!
He increased the strength of his massage on Wan Qingyan's shoulders and replied cheerfully, "Don't worry, Your Highness. I've had a very fulfilling day today. Not only have I read books, but I've also practiced calligraphy. And if you encounter any difficult problems, maybe I can help you with some advice!"
Zheng Changchuan blinked at Wan Qingyan, then he leaned close to her ear and said in a deliberately low voice, "And Ah Nian and Ah Ping are also very busy today!
Ah Nian is not only practicing diligently, but also studying hard. Ah Ping, on the other hand, has gradually improved his basic martial arts skills!"
While Zheng Changchuan was talking, he blew a breath gently into Wan Qingyan's ear in an ambiguous manner. The warm breath brushed against her skin, making her shiver slightly!
"Xiaochuan, I'm facing a difficult situation right now. Do you want to hear about it?"
Wan Qingyan stretched out her hand with a serious expression and pulled Zheng Changchuan over, and then pressed him onto the chair opposite her. At this moment, she wanted to hear some different insights and suggestions!
"Your Highness, of course I want to hear it, please speak quickly!"
Zheng Changchuan met Wan Qingyan's solemn and serious gaze, and he suddenly understood that it was time to discuss serious matters, so he quickly put away the smile on his face and sat up straight.
"I've taken over the Ministry of Revenue, but it's a mess. The accounts are in disarray, a complete mess. So, what should I do about this situation?"
After saying that, Wan Qingyan sighed softly, then raised his hand, picked up the teacup beside him, took a sip of tea to moisten his dry throat!
After Zheng Changchuan listened to Wan Qingyan's words quietly, his originally calm face suddenly became solemn, and his eyeballs began to move at an extremely fast speed!
At the same time, his right hand unconsciously raised up and kept stroking his chin, as if this could help him better sort out his thoughts.
At this moment, Zheng Changchuan was completely immersed in deep thought, and everything around him seemed isolated from him.
Wan Qingyan, who was standing aside, noticed all of Zheng Changchuan's subtle reactions. Seeing how focused and nervous he was, she pursed her lips slightly and revealed a faint smile.
She knew very well that the problem at hand was by no means easy to solve, so she was not in a hurry to urge Zheng Changchuan to give an answer. Instead, she chose to wait silently, giving him enough time to think of a solution.
Time passed minute by minute, and the whole room was so quiet that it seemed as if the only sounds were Zheng Changchuan's light breathing and the sound of his fingers rubbing his chin.
After a moment, Zheng Changchuan slowly raised his head, his gaze directed straight at Wan Qingyan opposite him, his eyes revealing an unprecedented seriousness!
Then, he said in a low and serious voice: "Your Highness, whether the account books of the Ministry of Revenue are bad debts or not is not something you can decide on your own!
The final decision-making power actually lies in the hands of Her Majesty the Empress. As long as Her Majesty the Empress determines that there is no problem with these account books, then the account books are fine.
Therefore, the most important thing for you right now is to find ways to gain Her Majesty's absolute trust and find out what her true intentions are."
After saying this, Zheng Changchuan still stared at Wan Qingyan. Deep in his eyes full of concern, there was a hint of worry that was difficult to conceal!
"Xiaochuan, what do you think the Empress's intention is? You can make a bold guess!"
Wan Qingyan looked at Zheng Changchuan with interest, a look of satisfaction on her face, and nodded slightly to show her approval. She was looking forward to what Zheng Changchuan would say next.
After a moment of thought, Zheng Changchuan slowly spoke, "Your Highness, in my humble opinion, the Empress is probably trying to rectify the officials in the Ministry of Revenue. Otherwise, why would she specifically send you to the Ministry of Revenue to take up a position there?"
After all, you didn't have much of a vested interest in the Ministry of Revenue before this, so it's only right for you to take on this important task."
At this point, Zheng Changchuan couldn't help but frown, and continued with a serious expression: "However, the Ministry of Revenue has been plagued by problems for a long time, and the problem of bad debts is even more complicated!
If you really decide to investigate this matter thoroughly, it will be like pulling out a radish and bringing out mud, and you will definitely offend a lot of people. By then, your situation will probably become precarious..."
After saying that, Zheng Changchuan sighed deeply, his eyes full of worry. He knew very well that this was a tough job that would easily arouse resentment and would be difficult to gain benefits from.
Deep down, he didn't want Wan Qingyan to fall into such difficulties and dangers, but he had no ability to stop it and could only watch. When he thought of this, he felt conflicted!
"Xiaochuan, what you said is absolutely true. This matter is indeed easy to offend people, and there is no real benefit to be gained. But even so, I have to do this!
Don't worry too much, I can definitely handle this matter properly, you have to have confidence in my ability!
If I'm afraid of offending others when something happens, then I won't be able to do anything. Just put your mind at ease!"
Wan Qingyan looked at Zheng Changchuan's tightly furrowed brows and his eyes full of worry, and quickly showed a comforting smile and said something to comfort him.
At the same time, she reached out and gently patted Zheng Changchuan on the shoulder, wanting to convey to him a sense of security and strength in this way so that he would not worry about this matter!
"Your Highness, I believe in your ability and you will succeed, but you must be careful. If there is anything you need me to do, just tell me. I will do it even if it means going through fire and water!!!"
