Chapter 1633 The Eldest Princess Longyue

( ) Speaking of which, the reason why the eldest princess supported the prince was to tell her when the previous emperor died, why the palaces below were not in chaos, because the palaces were all inherited by the eldest son, and The royal family is not like this. Not everyone can be the emperor. If the eldest son is not capable, but the other princes are very capable, forcing this position to the head of the eldest son will hurt him. Yes, it is because of this reason that many eldest sons did not inherit the throne, but when the previous emperor was dying, he suddenly understood that if the eldest son inheritance system continues like this, others will regard this as an iron law , and no one will object. When this thing becomes a thing that even a few years old children understand very well like 1+1=2, this will not change. It's a pity that he couldn't change anything when he was dying. His eldest son was too ambitious, so those who were not hit by him no longer had any power. At that time, the prince was I The current emperor was the most powerful person at that time. If he is not allowed to be the emperor, the empire will probably be split, so when he was dying, he confessed to their brothers and sisters that they must inherit the eldest son system in the future. Now His Majesty the emperor also admired the prince very much at the beginning, but when the prince grew up, he suddenly found that the current prince is really a little clueless, but he is a very reliable person, but his brain seems to be not very good, so he started Yi Chu thought about it, but thinking of what his father said back then, he still couldn't make up his mind, and the current crown prince can still defend the city, so he didn't move. m

The eldest princess Long Yue has always been the strongest supporter of the prince. She often dares to do things that others dare not do, because of what? Because she is the most powerful person among the princesses, no one can surpass her, even if her husband is gone, there is no one. When such a business is famous all over the world, of course the common people don't know that the business is hers, but people in the upper class know it well. Of course, the upper class refers to people above the duke, people like Suo Ye I also know it, and Long Yun and Li Cong also know it by the way. In fact, even if there is no reason for Suo Ye, Li Cong will meet her soon, and also want to meet this legendary woman. Suo Ye and the others are here Here is just a reminder to Li Cong. No matter what, this matter cannot be told to the eldest princess. The eldest princess already has a kind of doting on the prince. Even the queen can't compare. This woman is also very close, and it may be because they are about the same age. Over the years, any supporter of the prince has reservations, but this aunt has no reservations about his support. After the incident, the eldest princess who was recuperating outside the city quickly returned.

The grand princess is very ostentatious, as the emperor's most beloved sister, and as the big shopkeeper of Yitian, so Longyue's guard of honor is also second only to the emperor and queen mother in dì dū, other princes and so on Even if she can't keep up with the princess, it can also be seen that this woman is capable in the empire. It stretches for twenty miles, and a team of 30,000 people is coming towards the empire. The eldest princess's manor is in the south of dì dū,

On this day, the Dì dū Public Security Bureau dispatched tens of thousands of soldiers to maintain the order at the south gate of the dì dū. Except for emergency military situations, all other ordinary people and nobles must go through the other three gates. The county king is no exception. Only the prince can follow The princess entered the city together, but all the princes are in the palace, so there is no reason for them to go out to serve, so today this city gate is specially opened for the eldest princess. Ten imperial guards in yellow mandarin jackets went to greet them. His Royal Highness and the Crown Princess took the whole house out of the city to greet them. Li Cong directly lamented that the princess's airs were too big. His manor It's only thirty miles away from the capital, and the prince went ten miles out of the city to meet him.

The small merchants and hawkers around the south gate are dying one by one. This is the best time of the year. During the Chinese New Year, the turnover of a day’s work will be several times higher than usual, but look Today, although not all businesses are closed, it is no different from closing the doors. There are not a single commoner. The streets are full of soldiers from the Public Security Department. They will not come to patronize, and even if they do, they will probably come to check Yes, it would be better not to come.

In the ten-mile long pavilion in the south of dì dū, His Royal Highness has been waiting here for another five minutes. In the distance, you can already see the Luanjia of the eldest princess. The white horse of the good guy is walking in the front, not only the speed is the same Yes, the most terrible thing is that the frequency of these horses raising their legs is the same. This man can be trained to be like this. I really did not expect that the horse can also be like this. It looks really neat. Even His Royal Highness is a little envious of my aunt This guard of honor, this is the guard of honor of Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess, consisting of 5,000 knights, just for this guard of honor, the Eldest Princess has to throw in 500,000 gold coins every year, and this is just the maintenance cost, if all It is estimated that one million gold coins is not enough, but the most important thing that His Royal Highness the eldest princess needs is money, so he is going to talk about this pomp, and the next one is the Luanjia of the eldest princess, 128 people No matter how far the sedan chair was carried, the eldest princess would not know how to make a carriage, and would be carried by others.

The Eldest Princess has a thousand bearers. If you say this on the emperor, 100% of the people will definitely say that what you said is true, because if you count now, there will be three or four hundred. The princess goes out with several groups of bearers. Each of these bearers can bear a weight of three hundred catties. The average weight of each person carrying the eldest princess's sedan chair is only a few dozen catties. The main reason is that It is relatively safe to be carried by a person. Basically, except for the elderly men in the empire, they do not sit in sedan chairs, and His Majesty the Emperor will not allow it. If everyone in the royal family is powerless, it would be ridiculous. As for women Ladies and gentlemen, His Majesty the emperor gave sedan chairs, mainly to accept their hearts, but the princess's sedan chair was not given by the emperor, it was given by the previous emperor, and the one given by the previous emperor was not so luxurious at that time , The latter things were all made by the eldest princess herself. If Li Cong saw this sedan chair, he might immediately smash his proud carriage.

"His Royal Highness is here, kneel..." the chief eunuch of the eldest princess said in a long tone, and all the tens of thousands of people present except the crown prince and his wife knelt down, because the eldest princess Returning to Beijing is not a big deal, so there are not many people who came to greet her. The eldest princess came out to take a look. She was a little dissatisfied with those who should have come but did not come, and those who should not have come instead. I have some ideas, what are these people going to do?

The eldest princess signaled everyone to get up, and then asked the prince and princess to go forward together in his sedan chair. Even if five or six people entered the sedan chair carried by 128 people, they could barely feel anything. After the guests were seated, the eldest princess I saw the couple with bitter faces, as ugly as they could be, it was really not good, "What's the matter, you two, one is a majestic prince, and the other is a princess, is it just because of a black dress?" The army is so sad? Auntie knows that you care about the army in black, but I don't see it to this extent." The eldest princess said with a smile, she naturally knew that the prince's heart was not about this problem, After talking about His Majesty the Emperor's intervention that day, His Highness the Crown Prince began to think wildly.

"Auntie, it's not like this. It's not the matter that makes our prince sad. Don't you know what he's worried about?" The prince blushed. The little aunt was speechless, so at this time, the crown princess could only speak. I am very satisfied with the crown princess and the eldest princess, mainly because the power behind her is very powerful and can help the prince to dǎng It hurt the emperor's seat, otherwise she wouldn't bother to look at it.

"I think so, I've heard of such a person, we have never seen such a person before, this time it appears, even if it is from the secret army of the emperor's brother, what does it mean, the emperor's brother If you don't like it, why would you make trouble at this time, he knows what the New Year is, and he will stop anyone who wants to make trouble at this time, you are very quiet during this time, he will not come to you for problems, There are quite a few restless nobles, so I think this matter should have nothing to do with the emperor." The eldest princess's mind was wandering very quickly, and a few simple words made the crown prince Mao Sai suddenly realize, yes, from now on. In terms of strength, that person is qualified, but at this time, the father will not mess around.

"But, aunt, if that person is not from the father, I can't think of any power in the world that has such a person. If it is our enemy, this is really a terrible thing." The prince was a little scared He said, this is indeed a very important question. If this person is the second or third child, wouldn't he be able to kill himself at any time?

"Did your father summon you during this period, or did you give you any rewards?" The crown prince said that the eldest princess also felt that this matter was a bit tricky. Back then, she knew how the two secret troops were trained. It can be said that it is very easy for the people who came out there to kill these black-clothed soldiers, but they have never heard that they can kill people with a distance of hundreds of cloths. I haven't seen it myself, but I can't deny that it wasn't done by someone somewhere. After all, I'm just a princess. Even if the emperor of the previous generation loved me, I wouldn't be able to do it. Tell me all these things, everyone will have their own. Some secret ones, not to mention such a big organization.

"This is not missing. The father is the same as before. He summoned him twice without any scolding and gave him a lot of rewards." The prince thought for a while and answered, so it seems that it is not his father People, that is another result.

"Forget it, I think it's better not to make wild guesses about this matter. It's also possible that your enemy created such a person for you. He may have been hired. Otherwise, why don't you make another shot after taking one shot? This person also understands what he can bring to you. If this person continues to make shots, I think you will soon know who this guy is, so they all have a good reputation to make shots. What they are waiting for is that you mess up. Now You have already shown such signs. You must always remember that you are the crown prince of the empire. It is useless for them to be more powerful than you. They are all dishonest. Right now, the most important thing to solve in this matter is the recovery of the black army in your hand. If you don’t have a decent manpower in your hand, it will be very fatal. Don’t talk about looking for other people’s troubles, it’s your own safety. I think it's all a problem." The eldest princess thought for a while and said, this is considered to be a serious matter, guessing without any factual basis for a few days has already made His Highness the crown prince's brain, and now I heard When his aunt said that, he had found a new goal. With this goal, his mind would not be thinking about it, so he nodded quickly.

"Yeah, now there are only half of the black army left, and those who lost are the most powerful people. Yanshan also told me the truth, the remaining half can only have 30% of the original number at most. His combat ability is really useless." His Royal Highness is depressed when he thinks of Yanshan, **I have wasted so many years of cultivating people, and now they are beginning to bear fruit. Then let a mysterious person be killed, this heart is blocked.

The princess looked at the two mothers. Although he was considered the closest person to the prince, every time the princess saw her highness, the princess would feel a little inferior. Although her status was not low, but How can I say that I am also the daughter-in-law of the royal family. Compared with these daughters of royal family background, there is really a gap. Besides, my husband can trust his aunt unconditionally, but he must not trust himself unconditionally. In fact, she may not have She realizes that she has fallen in love with this man for so many years. In fact, every move of this man involves her. It is just a habit to seek benefits for her family. She saw that the eldest princess felt inferior Another most important reason is that she is not as beautiful as the eldest princess. The eldest princess was the most famous beauty in the imperial court back then, and she herself is just a group of flowers. The beautiful ones, in fact, I know what they are really like. When my husband lost so many manpower, my first thought was to take a few honest and capable people from my guard and give them to my husband. Unexpectedly, my husband I refused because my own safety needs to be paid attention to. If that was the case, I would be very touched. In fact, it is far from the case. My husband does not want my own people to enter his life, even if it is to help him in the past. It's also not allowed, he and himself are discussing things, and he and him are more like an ally, rather than a husband and wife. This kind of relationship is inexplicably tragic for a couple, but why not at the beginning? If you think about your husband in this way, it’s just that you have changed, but your husband has not changed. The one who changes first is miserable.

"Prince, I have trained a team in the other courtyard. Their ability is naturally not as good as your black-clothed army. Combined with the army, they can stand up for a while, but for now, it can only be done first." The eldest princess thought that she had just trained a team of horses and horses, and it was not many, only twenty people, but These are 20 people selected out of thousands of people. They spent four years training in the mountains, and recently helped me complete several good tasks. Although I spent a lot of money and hard work, but Now that there is a lack of people around my nephew, the eldest princess is not stingy at all, but after she finished speaking, the face of the princess beside her became even uglier. She is not as good as her aunt in terms of her husband's psychology. I can understand that what I took out was not my own elite, but what the eldest princess took out was her own elite. In fact, I had some reservations about my husband. The eldest princess did not have any Reserved, the relationship between their aunt and nephew is estimated to be realized when she is old. Of course, she doesn't know what the eldest princess is thinking. In fact, it is not just his husband, as long as it is anyone He would support anyone who became the eldest son of the empire, not because of the love they grew up with when they were young, it was just a beautiful excuse.

"Could it be Auntie's Fengluanwei?" The prince naturally heard about the team of the Eldest Princess. Although it has only been out for less than two months, he has made a lot of contributions to the Eldest Princess. Speaking of which, the reputation is also very powerful.

"Of course it is. What my aunt gave you is naturally a good thing." The eldest princess smiled proudly. The things in the court can't affect those old antiques, so I can only slowly give the prince some in this regard. helped.

The princess on the side looked at the two aunts and nephews coldly. She was not happy at all. Her husband believed in her aunt so much. Could it be that His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess really has no other ideas? How could she support her husband so unconditionally? Speaking of which, Feng Luanwei himself knew about it, and his own people had seen these people when they were working. They were all girls under twenty years old. Those who use their beauty and skills to do things have never failed since their debut. These people should be able to help their husbands do more things in the hands of their husbands, but these people can sometimes help their husbands, but their masters After all, it still belongs to the Eldest Princess. If one day the Eldest Princess does not support her husband, then it will be...

"Auntie, although the matter this time is very big, there is no need to end your vacation and return to the emperor, right? There are still a few days before the New Year. Auntie used to come back only by order of the emperor?" ?” After talking about the serious business, there is still a while before arriving at the imperial court. The crown prince and the eldest princess began to chat about some gossip. Naturally, the crown princess just sat and listened. Everyone knows about the concubine, so she simply fell asleep on the sidelines right now.

"No, you think your matter is that big. I have another thing to do when I come back this time. I want to see Li Cong sooner. I originally wanted to see him after a year, but the people below reported that The people of Yanping County Prince's Mansion have already started to build tea houses in a large area across the country, and we may be a step behind then, do you know how huge our sales in the Southern Empire are during the New Year?" His Royal Highness the Princess is also impatient when she thinks of the tea leaves Terrible, this thing has already made Her Royal Highness the eldest princess who is sitting on hundreds of millions of gold coins feel itchy. In the past, I also had a lot of profitable transactions in my hands, but nothing compared with this , this new report came back and stimulated myself even more.

Seeing the prince's eager gaze, Long Yue didn't hold back, "We shipped 350 catties of goods to the Southern Empire this month. The original highest price was 2,500 gold coins a tael, but now it's the lowest. The highest price we sold was 3,300 gold coins." One or two, what kind of concept is this? Let’s get rid of other expenses. This 350 catties of tea leaves can bring us tens of millions of gold coins, and the demand there is still increasing. I want to have a good relationship with this kid Let's talk, no matter what he asks, we have to take this down." Her Royal Highness said, the prince's eyes also showed light, and the income of a month is more than 20 million gold coins, and a year is Nearly 300 million gold coins, not to mention him, even his father is envious, but a few days ago, his father had warned His Royal Highness the eldest princess not to support these princes, but He can't say anything about supporting the prince. This is also the old emperor's will, and everyone has to abide by it.

"I really didn't expect that this little tea can make such a big profit. It seems that with this money, we can do more things, train more dead men, and get a lot of news." His Royal Highness Said happily, Long Yue also nodded with a smile, no one would feel that he had a lot of money, in the past, Long Yue could provide tens of millions of gold coins to the prince every year, this money seems to be a lot, you must know There are also tens of thousands of people who need to be supported, and many of them are purely for consumption. It seems that these ministers of the court want to get closer to them. This year's three festivals and two lives are necessary. This gift The money is very heavy, and there are other expenses for ostentation. In fact, the prince feels that his aunt’s ostentation is a bit big. See if the return trip is only 30 miles, it will cost more than 100,000 gold coins. , The money can also be left to do a lot of things, but the money is earned by my aunt, isn't it allowed to spend money?

"Here are five million gold coins. Take it. It's the end of the year. There will be more entertainment. Many places need to be managed. You are the prince, and many places are higher than other princes. Especially in the palace, those concubines who gave birth to daughters but have no sons, you should pay close attention to these people." Long Yue thought about it for a while and had to remind the crown prince, the annual gift that the crown prince sends to the palace is like It's all the same, with this money this year, we can do more things, that is, all the eunuchs in the palace, including some maids, have to be arranged, otherwise it may be because of such a small detail, although these It is impossible for people to be useful to themselves, but if they can’t be managed by themselves, they may become their enemies if others do. Sometimes the prince will pay hundreds of thousands of gold coins just for such a thought, the prince laughs After taking over the money, the five million gold coins should be able to buy off the ladies, big and small, in the palace.

I can't afford to offend these people in the palace. Sometimes a court lady next to the emperor has to catch up with the minister's skills. Your Highness has caused a lot of trouble. For those concubines who have already given birth to princes, naturally there is no need to curry favor. They can save face. My mother and queen want a big gift, although they are all Ladies and gentlemen, the queen not only has her own son, but also Jiudi and the twelfth brother. The twelfth brother is still a baby when he is less than seven years old, but the ninth brother has already been appointed as the grand duke. It's not a joke, this kid has always been greedy for money, so I have to give him a share, so the prince began to calculate where to go with the five million gold coins, seeing that he got a windfall, but he didn't expect it to come As for dū, the five million gold coins were divided from his own mind, and it would be a headache to have too much money.

The eldest princess and His Royal Highness the prince separated at the gate of the city. Her highness the eldest princess wanted to go to the palace to have lunch. Because the emperor did not pass on the crown prince, he could not go with him. There are many royal rules Even the two of you can't say that you want to eat together, so he will eat together. The rules and rules can annoy people to death, and the palace has begun to set up banquets. For this younger sister who is much younger than himself, His Majesty the Emperor is also very happy. She loves her, she makes no secret of it.

"This is one million gold coins. My aunt gave five million gold coins just now. You can distribute them at your natal family. Add the money to the previous annual gift and send it over. Now we are in a relatively weak time. , Then Feng Luanwei doesn’t know when he will be able to merge with those people under my command, pay more attention, our enemy is very powerful.” Thinking of his younger brothers and princes makes him feel dizzy, although the imperial law is clear It is stipulated that a prince without the right of inheritance cannot develop his own power, but now it seems that this statement is simply nonsense. As long as any prince who goes out of the palace to live his own life will not have his own world, their subordinates are not only There are private armies, and various organizations, and even their influence has already developed into the court, and many people have become even more serious, and even want to develop into the army. The prince sees this See you, but there is no way, he is also doing that, and he is violating the rules, so we can't blame others.

"Your Highness doesn't need to hang on to my natal family. They can only support you. The other princes have nothing to do with them. It would be a waste of money to spend on their side. Besides, our annual ceremony this year was originally It's a lot worse. I think it's the empress who needs to pay attention. The Ninth Prince heard that the gift he prepared for the empress was a letter made up of three thousand pearls. It made the empress very happy. We It is better to add this to it, there are a lot of people in the empress's palace, and there are a lot of expenses." The crown princess did not directly take over the money as before, but said something like this , the prince smiled slightly, maybe at this time the princess began to enter his role. In fact, the prince from the princess's natal family has figured it out. The queen mother is already old. Although it is very useful, but In the long run, it will not be of much use. The Crown Princess should become the pillar of their family. In the past, the Crown Prince thought it was not a big deal to occupy such a large share, but at that time the Crown Princess had not been fully recovered, and now it is just the beginning. Well, the prince touched the princess's hand, and then took back the gold ticket of one million gold coins, and the princess also smiled.

It's just that after solving these things, the prince wants to know who the mysterious person is even more. He has such a great ability. This is simply a very good thing. His Royal Highness is just so similar. He knows how capable such a person is. Maybe the day he becomes the emperor, this person may be able to submit to him, but if he If you know Li Cong's identity, you probably won't think so. Li Cong will not submit to anyone. What he wants is to be able to rule a piece of the world. Speaking of which, this piece of the world is not what Li Cong wants. Li Cong's ambition Much bigger than them, a planet, just passing by.

After encountering the matter of the Black Clothes Club, and knowing about the eldest princess from Long Yun and Suo Ye, Li Cong began to live in seclusion, not because he was afraid of them, but because there were two people beside him. Well, I have to take them into consideration, so Li Cong chats with two beauties in the room every day, playing cards and so on. When the news came, the eldest princess wanted to see Li Cong.

As the eldest princess, there are naturally a lot of things to do in the imperial court. After returning, I am busy receiving gifts and giving gifts. Speaking of which, they can save tens of thousands of gold coins every year by receiving gifts, but you are a person with something to do. People, since you want to do something, you will definitely ask for it. If you don’t do something, you don’t need to ask for it. Naturally, you can’t do it empty-handed. At this time, you can see what their money is doing, just like It’s the same with the emperor, he doesn’t need to give gifts, except for his mother’s place where gifts are accepted. What the eldest princess gave to the emperor is a horse, twenty catties of tea, and other things. It's worth tens of millions of gold coins. His Majesty the Emperor couldn't help but laugh from ear to ear when he saw these things. Whoever said that the emperor must be rich, the emperor also needs a lot of money to do a lot of things that can't be put on the table As for things, the common people still need to have private money, let alone the emperor, and there are even more private affairs that need to be done.

The place where Li Cong met the eldest princess was Yitiandang's diì dū head office. The eldest princess never thought of taking Li Cong to her home. After all, Li Cong was a businessman. In their minds, this businessman is here to make money for them. It is absolutely impossible to be equal to them. If Long Yun and Suoye hadn't known how fierce Li Cong was, they probably wouldn't have treated Li Cong that way. Yes, there is no way, this is an idea that has been formed for tens of thousands of years, and it is not easy to change.

dì dū's Yitiandang is also the most luxurious Yitiandang in the entire empire. Below it is a trading counter with a length of more than 300 meters. Hundreds of employees are doing business with thousands of ordinary people outside. It is the end of the year, and there are flowers everywhere. money, so the business of this pawn shop is very good, although the price given by Yitiandang is not the best, but it is safe here, and it will definitely keep it for you for a few days if you say it. There will be no other things, such as looking at your things in other pawnshops, and they will stop you when you want to redeem them in the few days, so that you can't make up the money. The money is gone, the last baby is also theirs, this kind of situation will never happen in Yitiandang.

Li Cong took a casual look when he entered, he had such a good copper pot, if it was outside, it would cost 80 silver coins, but here it is only 30 silver coins, it is absolutely new It’s no different. If you don’t buy it back, Yitian will double the profit. In the past, Li Cong didn’t know much about the business of pawn shops, but now he understands it. Daring lovers are also an industry with absolute profits. It’s just that the base number is not very large, but Yitiandang’s scale is so large, if this kind of business is done all over the country, it will be the same as stealing money. Li Cong saw three deals done all the way, and he did all of them. If it is successful, you will get a few gold coins. These hundreds of employees have to receive fifty or sixty people every day. According to the minimum, one person has to earn dozens of gold coins a day. He brought nearly tens of thousands of gold coins to Yitiandang, but this was just a shop for Yitiandang, and it was the least profitable business.

The second floor is the place where items worth 1,000 gold coins are traded. There are far fewer people here, and there are only less than a hundred employees working here. These people must be very careful when collecting things Be careful, many things here are also fake, after all, if you spend tens of gold coins to get a fake thing up, as long as the people here don’t see it, they will never come back after taking the money, this is also because You folks here have misjudged, it has nothing to do with others, the things traded here are really all kinds of things, Li Cong continued to follow people forward, it seems that the eldest princess is still giving him face, There is no intention of stopping until the third floor. Half of the third floor is the warehouse, and the other half has more than a dozen employees chatting. These people don't have much business right now. They are here to entertain transactions worth more than 100,000 gold coins. , They only need a few people to come up every day to complete the task, most of the time they are just talking nonsense.

Finally on the fourth floor, Li Cong entered a room, probably this is the reception room of the eldest princess. Li Cong went in and took a look, but there was nothing special. He knew the pomp of the eldest princess, but he didn't expect her to be there When I saw myself, I thought of being low-key. This is just a very ordinary reception room. After Li Cong entered, the eldest princess hadn't come yet. A beautiful maid brought tea to Li Cong and went out. , Li Cong is not in a hurry, princess, she always has airs.

A few minutes later, we opened. Li Cong was different from other people. He didn't have the habit of kneeling. He just nodded towards this charming lady. This lady knew that Li Cong was not an ordinary person, so he didn't. Concerned about this issue of etiquette, the eldest princess is followed by two women in red clothes. They are very handsome, but they are not beautiful, but Li Cong can feel that these two people are masters. The master is negotiating with him, and he is still on his own territory. This eldest princess really thinks highly of herself, can she still violently hurt others?

"Mr. Li, thank you very much for coming to my place. Presumably you know what it is when I let you come to my place. I want to know the output of Mr. Li's tea next year and my share." The eldest princess didn't think so. It is a good thing to waste such a long time with a businessman like Li Cong, so there is no nonsense. This is a shameful thing in Li Cong's view. It seems that you don't care much about Lao Tzu.

"I don't know about this either, it depends on the weather." Li Cong replied indifferently, and the two people behind the eldest princess frowned, rude boys. ! ! !
