Comprehensive film and television: Make trouble before lying down

"Using commerce to support the army?"

After listening to Jiuning's suggestion, Xiao Heng kept thinking about its feasibility in his mind, and the more he thought about it, the brighter his eyes became.

This is more than just killing three birds with one stone, it is probably far more than that. Once this policy is implemented, the border areas will be the first to cheer for it.

Secondly, he won over the merchants of Dayan and the hearts of the people, while at the same time breaking up King Cheng's power in the border areas and possibly blocking King Cheng's way of making money.

The more Xiao Heng thought about it, the more excited he became. He suddenly stood up, hugged Jiuning in his arms, and without saying a word, suddenly let go of her, turned around and ran out.

Jiuning looked at the new dishes and the bowls and chopsticks on the table, and left without even taking a bite. He couldn't help but laugh.

After Xiao Heng came out, he rode his horse all the way to the palace and broke in without notifying anyone. When he saw Emperor Hong Xiao Zhao Ye, the excitement on his face was beyond words.

Zhao Ye was also wondering, what had made him so excited after just finishing the morning court? He rushed straight into the study.

Before the question was asked, Xiao Heng explained the plan proposed by Jiu Ning and analyzed its pros and cons.

After hearing this, Zhao Ye, like Xiao Heng, felt enlightened. The two of them got together and listed the details one by one. The first step was to screen who was qualified to become the royal merchant of Dayan.

Not only must they have strong qualifications and be able to accommodate a large number of retired soldiers, but their character and reputation must also be acceptable. Otherwise, if they are harsh on soldiers in private, not only will it fail to achieve the desired effect, but it may also give King Cheng a handle to bite him back.

The second thing was the candidates to be sent to the border. The two discussed for a long time and finally perfected the details. Among the final shortlisted list, there was the Luyang Ye family.

After the two of them finished discussing the issue of the retired soldiers, they were in a good mood and sat down to chat. Zhao Ye smiled gossipyly and said, "I heard that you and Jiang Jiuning have been getting along well recently. Is that true?"

Xiao Heng chuckled twice and nodded, accepting it. However, the expression on his face was extremely smug.

Zhao Ye was also happy. Over the years, Xiao Heng had been carrying the matter of his father's death in his heart and pushing himself too hard, which led to the nickname "Jade-faced Shura".

All the respectable families in the capital were unwilling to marry their daughters to Xiao Heng, not even the unpopular girls.

Everyone was terrified when talking about Xiao Heng, and no one wanted to associate with him. Even though they grew up together and he had countless women in his harem, Xiao Heng had no one he could confide in.

Seeing that the other party had been frowning slightly, Xiao Heng asked with some concern, "Your Majesty, what are you worried about? Do you not want me to be with her?"

"She is not the King's man, nor does she belong to any faction, Your Majesty..."

Xiao Heng defended Jiuning anxiously.

Zhao Ye reached out and patted Xiao Heng's shoulder to comfort her: "I am not worried that she will have second thoughts. Judging from what she has done, it is not the work of other forces.

I was thinking that her opinions were of great benefit to Great Yan, but I was unable to give her an open reward, much less to tell everyone about her achievements."

Hearing this, both of them frowned, walked down from the desk together, came to the steps of the hall, and sat side by side.

"I think she doesn't care much about these things. Just give her some gold and silver."

Zhao Ye raised his eyebrows and nudged Xiao Heng with his shoulder. "I'm not a pedantic person. It's just that the time to announce it is not yet right. Since you have chosen her, her current status is too low, and there is also the stain of the Chaste Girl Hall."

Zhao Ye smiled, agreeing with his own thoughts: "However, I have thought of a way to publicly reward her and also to legitimately arrange a marriage for you two."

"Grant a marriage? What does Your Majesty have in mind?" Xiao Heng was very interested in this topic.

Zhao Ye: "Let her enroll in Mingyi Hall."

Xiao Heng: "Why is that?"

"Wan Ning came today and proposed that this year's annual exam be conducted jointly by men and women. If you can get someone in there and get a good ranking, I can then legitimately reward her and give her the title of County Lady."

"I've helped you solve so many problems, yet you only give one reward to a county lady. Why don't you give her another piece of bread? Her shop will open in a few days."

Zhao Ye didn't want to pay attention to this guy who was pushing his luck: "Now that we're done, get out of here!"

"Your Majesty, what about the plaque?"

"I agree, get out!"

The matter has been accomplished, Xiao Heng is happy, he wants to go back quickly to claim the credit, I believe Jiu Ning will also be happy.

"What? Enrollment?"

Jiuning opened her eyes wide, full of confusion. She was so busy that she couldn't even run the shop all day, and she still had to go to school. With her 2 skills, she would get the last place in the class. Isn't that embarrassing?

"No," Jiuning pouted indignantly.

Xiao Heng followed behind her and took the account book from her hand: "You don't have to do anything? Just take the exam and go through the motions."

Wouldn't it be even more embarrassing for her to take the exam without studying?

"No, I won't go no matter what you say."

Helpless, Xiao Heng could only use his last trump card: "His Majesty said that he would give you the title of County Lady afterward. Do you want to go?"

"County Lady? Are you serious?"

Please forgive her for changing her mind so quickly. Even a normal person couldn't resist this temptation! From now on, she will be a person of status in Beijing.

"Go, I must go. Your Majesty has spoken, how can we, a commoner, disobey? It's just studying, I can do it."

Jiuning raised her neck proudly. No matter how big the problem was, it could not stop her from making progress.

When Xiao Heng saw Jiuning agreed, he couldn't help but start to take credit, with a look on his face that said, "Praise me!"

Jiuning tapped her toes, cupped the other's cheek, and gently kissed her on the lips.

Xiao Heng felt the softness and was too stiff to move, but the smile on his lips grew bigger and bigger.

When he reacted, Jiu Ning had already walked a few steps away, so he strode forward, grabbed the person and brought him into his arms. This reward was really good, but it was a bit of a mouthful!

That day, Jiu Ning dressed up, put on the clothes of Mingyi Hall, and was led in by a servant holding a few books.

At this time, the entire school was quiet and everyone had already started class.

As far as she knew, Xue Fangfei had persuaded her father to come to Mingyi Hall, and the class that Xiao Heng had gotten her into through the back door was exactly Xue Fangfei's class.

The servant brought the person to the door, said a few words to the teacher, and left. Jiuning followed him generously. There were about twenty or thirty people in the whole classroom. She glanced around and saw a familiar figure, then smiled faintly.

"Hello everyone! I'm a new student today. My last name is Jiang Jiuning. Please take care of me in the future."

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Xue Fangfei waving at her. She walked over without hesitation and found a seat to sit down.

As soon as the get out of class was over, Xue Fangfei pulled Jiang Li aside to ask all sorts of questions, then talked about their recent situation, and also introduced Jiang Li to Liu Xu from the next table, who was the daughter of Madam Liu who had rescued Xue Fangfei that day.
