Ji Rufan was not surprised by Song Qimin's straightforwardness. In fact, the two of them have often been together since they were young, so they don't feel strange when they get along.It's just that as we get older, in order to avoid suspicion and everyone has different responsibilities and missions, the time to meet each other becomes less.

"Now that Yuan Yiheng has fallen, although the Zhongyuanhou Mansion has not been implicated for the time being, it has obviously lost trust with the emperor. Even the new general who went to the border for Yuan Yiheng to take command of the border was also recommended by Prime Minister Song."

Song Qimin listened with a smile on his face. It seemed that Princess Yu knew a lot about the government.

"Right now, Prime Minister Song is the only one who is most relied upon by my father in the court, and Song Qimin is the only one who is the most ideal son-in-law candidate in my father's heart. If the Song family can ask for a favor for Chu Zhiyao, I think father Although the emperor may not take back all the conditions, he will definitely make some concessions."

Ji Rufan is not stupid, she knows that if the request is too difficult, Song Qimin will definitely not agree.And once it is beyond Song Qimin's ability, Ji Rufan can't force others, so she has to handle it just right.

Chu Zhiyao listened quietly, watching the two princesses put pressure on Song Qimin in turn for their own affairs, which can be described as both hard and soft.She was inevitably moved, and her desire to become a son-in-law became even stronger.

"Ahem, two princesses, thanks to your love and respect for Song, you have entrusted me with important tasks many times. But this time, I am afraid it will be really difficult." Song Qimin did not deliberately evade, but this time he wanted to openly oppose the emperor. , no matter what, it doesn't fit the Song family's style.

Ji Rufan also knew that it was impossible to persuade Song Qimin to do such a thankless thing for no reason.Therefore, some benefits must be given to achieve equivalent exchange.The Song family's influence in the court has now risen to a higher level. I am afraid that there is nothing that her status as a princess can give.

"Actually, princess, instead of wasting time on me, why don't you try to go to my grandpa. In fact, grandpa speaks more than I do." Song Qimin saw that Ji Rufan seemed to be planning something, so he didn't speak for a long time, so he took the initiative Suggestions are given.

"I can't even talk to you, so how can I convince Prime Minister Song?" Ji Rufan also had some respect for that respected old man.

Song Qimin sighed quietly, clasped the back of his head with his hands, and leaned back slightly.He was a little melancholy, and he didn't know whether Chu Zhiyao's insistence on being a son-in-law was a good thing or a bad thing.It is always difficult for people inside the walls to understand those outside the walls.For Chu Zhiyao, maybe the opposite is also true.

"Brother Chu, I heard that your family is in Nancheng, and you are in business?" Song Qimin sat up suddenly and asked about Chu Zhiyao's family background.

"Yes, the Chu family's firm has a certain scale in Nancheng." Chu Zhiyao was not modest, and told the truth.

Song Qimin touched his chin meaningfully. For Chu Zhiyao, who had been in contact with Song Qimin several times, she was very familiar with this expression.This shows that Song Qimin is about to come up with a very creative or very sure strategy.But what does this have to do with the Chu family business?

Ji Rufan had been keenly aware of the clues from Song Qimin's questioning, and always felt that Song Qimin would not care about this for no reason.

"There's some news, I also overheard it from my grandfather. I shouldn't say it nonsense, but I really want to help Brother Chu. In the future, I will have someone to chat with when the son-in-law gathers. with."

Hearing this, Chu Zhiyao had joy on his face, and it seemed that there was really hope.

"Yuan Yiheng hoarded war horses secretly, all of which were allocated by the imperial court over the years. In other words, apart from capturing a batch of good war horses, the imperial court has lost a lot of money. It is not clear what was misappropriated by Yuan Yiheng. Whether it was misappropriated or transferred."

Ji Rufan was shocked when he heard the words, his face was very serious.This matter has indeed had a great impact. Years of wars on the border have cost the treasury a large amount of silver every year. Although she doesn't know much about this matter, every time she hears her father mention it, she always looks sad.

"The national treasury is short, which means that Long Live Lord is now empty and poor. If there is a consort who is willing to contribute generously at this time, it should be a good happy event." Song Qimin finally got to the point.

Chu Zhiyao had fully understood this time, that he wanted the Chu family to donate money.

But Chu Zhiyao had never dealt with the imperial court. In the past, even if the firm donated money, it was his grandfather who came forward and donated it to the local government.This time she was dealing directly with the emperor, she really had no idea how much she should give.

"Even if the Chu family's business is rich, it is only the richest man in southern Xinjiang. Compared with the big families in the capital, it may not be much stronger." Ji Rufan gave Song Qimin a displeased look.

Sure enough, among the group of children, Song Qimin had the most ghost ideas.It was said that Chu Zhiyao was asked to donate money, but if he really wanted to donate money to the national treasury, if he could touch his father, he couldn't let Chu Zhiyao contribute all his wealth.

That's really for the beauty's sake. If Chu Zhiyao really wants to do this, he will definitely be instructed to die behind his back.The reputation of the prodigal son is solid, and Master Chu will not agree.Similarly, Ji Rufan would not agree.

No one wants their lover to mess up the family for themselves. Even if love is to be devoted desperately, it cannot all be at the expense of family members and those who care about them.

"The strength of the Chu family firm may not be able to make up for the loss of the treasury. This method is not feasible." Ji Rufan blocked this path for Chu Zhiyao calmly.

Song Qimin looked at Chu Zhiyao unsatisfied, resting his chin on his hand, waiting for Chu Zhiyao's own answer.

"I have to go back and discuss this matter with my grandfather. After all, although I have inherited the Chu family business, it was founded by my grandfather alone. I can't dispose of his hard work at will."

Song Qimin winked at Ji Rufan, indicating that he thought Chu Zhiyao's performance was not bad.

Ji Rusu was a little angry, and kicked Song Qimin lightly with his foot under the table.

Originally, he was asked to help figure out a solution, but instead, Chu Zhiyao had to donate his entire fortune, and also made Huang Jie and Chu Zhiyao openly disagree.Isn't this a disservice, really angry.

Song Qimin moved his legs away with a smile, and did not get angry with his fiancée.Sometimes he would just sigh helplessly, not knowing when Ji Rusu would understand what he wanted.But when he thought about his physical condition, he would rather Ji Rusu not have so many thoughts and feelings for him.

After careful calculation, Chu Zhiyao felt that donating money to the national treasury was not a complete loss-making business. As long as the emperor could see the sincerity of the Chu family, it might also help the Chu family firm gain a firm foothold in the capital.

If she really becomes a son-in-law in the future, she will no longer be able to run the business as an heir, and she will not be able to find a more suitable person to replace her for a while.Thinking that Dr. Min has been in the Chu family for so many years, but he is always a guest.If Dr. Min is invited to sit in charge of the firm in the capital, he can rest assured.Moreover, I heard that Dr. Min lived in the capital for a period of time when he was young, so he should not be uncomfortable with the capital.

Thinking of Dr. Min, Chu Zhiyao had an idea from a long time ago again, and she sized up Song Qimin.Although Song Qimin is still dressed in a low-key and elegant style today, he has definitely dressed in peace.And just looking at the fact that he brought freshly picked herbal tea, it was obvious that he must be interested in Princess Ze's invitation this time.

"Brother Song, I actually have an idea, I wonder if you would like to hear it."

"Appreciate further details."

"The Chu family has a doctor with excellent medical skills, who is my savior. She traveled all over the world when she was young, and she once studied art with an expert, so you might as well invite her to treat Brother Song's condition."

After hearing this, Song Qimin was taken aback for a moment, then smiled a few times, and waved his hands again and again.

"My body has seen too many doctors since I was a child. Even the imperial doctor in the palace has been ordered to treat me several times. If it really worked, I would have recovered."

Song Qimin's words were true. As soon as he finished speaking, both Ji Rufan and sisters fell silent.

Song Qimin sighed again, and said, "Anyway, it's still my own body that doesn't live up to it."

But Chu Zhiyao refused to give up easily. In her eyes, there is nothing more worthy of effort than resurrection from the dead.She basically saw that Song Qimin's long-term alienation from Princess Ze was due to his inner inferiority complex.He has some prominent background and extraordinary talent, but he doesn't even have a basic healthy body, which makes Song Qimin always a little bit reluctant to let go in front of the girl he loves.Over time, he didn't know how to express his hidden feelings, and Song Qimin himself couldn't figure out what he wanted.

"Since I have met so many doctors, it doesn't matter to see one more. I have been away from home for too long, and I even miss Dr. Min. Brother Song, you should sell me a favor, so that I have a good reason to invite her to Beijing. "

However, Ji Rufan saw a new turning point. She said: "If Dr. Min can cure Mr. Song's illness, then I think Prime Minister Song will be very happy."

"That's right, at that time grandpa will feel that he owes Chu Zhiyao a favor."

"Prime Minister Song will definitely intercede with the emperor at that time, and if the emperor pushes it further, maybe there will be a turning point!" Ji Rusu seemed to have seen that day come, and almost clapped his hands in celebration.

The boat was slowly advancing in the river, but the people on the boat had already reached several agreements.When a group of people disembarked and left the pier, they were full of expectations.Although the task is somewhat arduous, for everyone, the future is promising.

"Zhiyao, do you want to go back to Nancheng?" Back in the palace, Ji Rufan still felt a little bit reluctant when he thought about the money donation.

"Yeah, I haven't seen Grandpa for a long time, so it's time to go back and have a look. Besides, if I don't go back, I'm afraid Dr. Min won't go to Beijing easily." Chu Zhiyao has already started packing his bags, and it seems that he doesn't want to waste a second bell.

Looking at Chu Zhiyao's busy back, Ji Rufan stepped forward quickly, grabbed Chu Zhiyao's waist involuntarily, and put his face on her back.

Chu Zhiyao immediately stopped his movements and stood still.

It took a long time for Ji Rufan behind him to speak out slowly, and said, "Zhiyao, I can't bear to part with you. Even if you leave the palace, I feel the surroundings are very cold."

Chu Zhiyao held the hand around his waist with his hand, turned around and hugged Ji Rufan in his arms.

Kissed her forehead lightly, and coaxed: "Little fool, I am leaving this time to stay better in the future."
