Princess Yuhime

Because Fu Yue was really lacking energy, Su Jiming left early, and it was not until noon when he left the palace today.

In the past, Su Jiming, as a second-rank female official and as the companion of His Royal Highness Fuyue, always ate with Fuyue.Fu Yue's mouth is light, and she eats little, not to mention that the dishes in the palace are always small, so Su Jiming can only eat half full every time.

Catch up with leaving the palace early today, and Linglong was not around to serve her, Su Jiming became playful, and wandered to the south of the city by herself, stopping and stopping along the way, thinking about buying something to eat.

But when she really wandered to the south of the city, she didn't see the bustling street scene in her memory, it was just a clean road with residential houses on both sides, not like a place for buying and selling things.

"Ma'am," Su Jiming asked the old woman who was mending clothes on the side of the street, "You don't do business in the south of the city anymore?"

The old woman looked up at her, "The little girl hasn't come back for several years? The south of the city has long been forbidden to do business."

"I haven't been back to the capital for four years. I just came back these days. You said that business is not allowed in the south of the city. What is it... not allowed?"

"Hey," the old woman was filled with righteous indignation, and she slapped her thighs, "You said that we small businesses, with this place in the south of the city, we can support our family anyway, and we can do it as a living."

"Who knows which goddamn high official said that we are a "businessman" or something cheap, and told the emperor to listen to this nonsense. We are not allowed to do business here, and the small stalls that were there before are not allowed to open again. There is a tax to pay. The tax is too heavy, little girl, we can't afford it."

When the old woman was emotional, she even raised her voice several times, pulling Su Jiming's arm and telling her how difficult the people's life is——

"What's wrong with us doing some business? In my opinion, this kind of thing is done by corrupt officials who want to take money from us. But where do we have money? They were all taken away..."

Su Jiming listened to the old woman's words, but did not respond.She only looked at the account books sent by the shopkeeper every month, and the tax was indeed increased.But because the restaurant's business is booming, it doesn't matter if the tax is heavier.

At first glance, what the old woman said made sense, but when you think about it carefully, it doesn't make any sense.Most of the corrupt officials in the world who manage the business of ordinary people have conflicts of interest.But this street wants to be pornographic... I'm afraid it's because the black yarn hat has been worn for a long time, and I don't even want my head anymore.

But to be honest, Su Jiming became worried again——

She is a restaurant owner, and the disappearance of the snack street is of course good for her, and the traffic will increase, but if this trend continues...

Business travel is not good, and the treasury is not rich.

If the national treasury is not abundant, it will be difficult to realize large-scale construction projects, and the tax must be increased elsewhere.If the tax is imposed on the peasants, it will shake the foundation of the country.

But... Ximan is not peaceful, so the crown prince is still guarding the border; Beidi is watching, at least Su Jiming has seen Beidi's riding and shooting at the border——

Although a child of three years old, he can also bend a bow and shoot an arrow. It can be said that everyone practices martial arts.

Su Jiming shook his head, not daring to think about it any further.She can only hope that these are her wild dreams and will not come true.

Just then, someone called her from behind.

"Ji Ming?"

The author has something to say:

There will be two more in a while, Jiumi
