The emperor stared at Ye Jingyan's plan without speaking for a long time.

Ye Jingyan panicked, lowered her head, and wished she could find a hole to crawl into.

She couldn't write policy essays; this plan was something she had been conceiving in her mind for a long time.

Ever since her brother took her out of the palace and taught her how to buy things, she discovered that the same rouge could increase in price fourfold simply by changing the bottle. That's when she got this idea.

Even though she dislikes appearing in public all these years, there are always some occasions she can't avoid.

She received a lot of attention because of her face.

Besides her face, her clothes, jewelry, and even the lip rouge she wore also attracted a lot of attention from the noble ladies.

They seemed to really like wearing similar clothes, jewelry, and headwear to her, and even applying the same lipstick!

So she kept thinking, if she could open a shop that specializes in selling things that wealthy ladies want, since they are all rich, would people be willing to buy it no matter how expensive it is?

This time, when her father asked them to write policy proposals, she couldn't write anything no matter what she tried. But somehow, she ended up writing this plan.

On her way to Chengqian Palace, she showed her plan to her brother, the emperor. He gave her a strange look before returning the plan to her.

Father won't be angry, will he?

Even though her elder brother didn't say anything after reading it, he would have definitely reminded her if there were any problems with the plan.

Thinking this, she took a small step, then another small step, trying to move herself behind her brother so that if her father really got angry, her brother could save her life!

But before she could move behind her brother, her father looked over first.

The way her father looked at her was exactly the same way her brother looked at her.

She dared not meet her father's gaze, and quickly lowered her head, not daring to move.

"That's a good idea," the emperor said after a pause.

"Jing Shu, take a look too." He handed Ye Jing Yan's proposal to Ye Jing Shu.

Ye Jingyan reached out to take back her plan, but as soon as she raised her hand, she saw that her elder sister had already taken her plan from the Emperor's hand, so she could only silently withdraw her hand.

She's definitely going to get yelled at!

My elder sister has lofty ambitions and hopes that they can become her helpers, but she wrote such a business plan. She will definitely be scolded to death!

"Ye Jingyan—" Ye Jingshu called Ye Jingyan's name.

Ye Jingyan silently raised her hand to cover her ears; she was about to be scolded, and she didn't want to hear it!

Seeing this, Ye Jingshu found it somewhat amusing and reached out to pull Ye Jingyan's hand away, saying, "Let go, I won't scold you."

Huh?

Ye Jingyan was somewhat surprised.

"I won't scold you; on the contrary, I'll praise you! Come back to Chaoyang Palace with me later, and we'll discuss opening a shop tonight!" Ye Jingshu said with a smile.

Ye Jingyan's idea is indeed excellent, and it coincides perfectly with her argument about increasing the national treasury's revenue in her policy essay. If their shops can open, they will definitely make a fortune!

"Really?" Ye Jingyan asked in disbelief.

“Really! Money is a good thing! Any business that can make money is a good business! Father, would you like to do business with us?” Ye Jingshu said, looking at the richest person in the world.

They'll need to invest a lot of money upfront to make this business a success!

"If you need any amount of money, just go to the Imperial Household Department and get it yourself," the emperor said generously.

"Thank you, Father. When we have income, your son will split it 50/50 with you!" Ye Jingshu said happily.

"Do you think I need your little bit of money?" the emperor said dismissively.

"Yes, yes! Since we're doing business, we should keep things clear between father and daughter. We might need your help in the future! Thank you, Father!"

As she spoke, she patted Ye Jingyan on the back.

"Thank you, Father." Ye Jingyan said hurriedly, still a little dazed. How could it be that in just a few words, she, her elder sister, and her father were going to do business together?

"Congratulations, Father, elder sister, and younger sister! If this deal goes through, you'll never be short of money again!" Ye Jingchen said with a smile.

If they succeed in this deal, it will be unique in the entire Da Yuan, something that modern luxury brands can't compare to!

"Thank you for your kind words. If business is good in the future, I'll let you all join me. We can all make money together!" Ye Jingshu said decisively with a wave of her hand.

"Your business hasn't even started yet, and you're already thinking about making money!" the emperor said, while looking at Ye Jingshu's strategy essay.

Her argument for increasing the national treasury revenue was to profit from the women of aristocratic families, because their spending on clothing, jewelry, and cosmetics was indeed staggering.

As for how to ensure the loyalty of soldiers, Ye Jingshu proposed the principle of checks and balances. There should be checks and balances between armies, between generals and their supervisors, and between generals themselves.

Balance is the way to longevity; this is an eternal truth.

The way a ruler governs his subjects is essentially the art of checks and balances.

The emperor was very satisfied with Ye Jingshu's policy essay.

At this point, everyone except Ye Jingchen had finished reading the strategies and proposals of the others.

Ye Jingming had previously worried that his younger siblings in the Wenhua Hall would not understand the military and military power and would not be able to write any meaningful opinions. However, it turns out that they have royal blood flowing through their veins and are born more sensitive to power!
