Yinzhen did not expect that Tong Cheng'er's situation was somewhat different from his.

But that's alright, it's actually better this way, since he knows very little about modern things.

After Tong Cheng'er's identity was exposed, she felt she needed some peace and quiet, while Yinzhen felt the opposite, because he finally had someone he could confide in, and he had a lot to say.

Yinzhen spoke in the study and continued speaking in his bedroom. Tong Cheng'er was getting tired of listening, so she said, "I'm sleepy today, let's talk about it tomorrow, okay?"

Yinzhen glanced at the time and realized it was indeed getting late, so he held his little wife and went to sleep.

Yinzhen thought he would have difficulty falling asleep, but on the contrary, he fell asleep very quickly and very soundly.

Tong Cheng'er, on the other hand, said she was sleepy, but when she actually calmed down, she couldn't fall asleep.

Tong Cheng'er was somewhat confused. She hadn't deliberately thought about her modern life for a long time, but after being exposed in front of Yinzhen today, she had no choice but to recall those days.

As she thought about it, she suddenly realized that it was all in her past life. She could just treat it as a nightmare, and now that she was awake, she had a loving father, mother, and brother, and she had married a man who seemed like a very good man.

Thinking about these things only adds to your worries. Life goes on, and people should always look forward. We've already gotten through the tough times, so if we want to make too much of a comfortable life now, we're just making ourselves suffer. Why bother?

After figuring things out, it was already past midnight, and Tong Cheng'er finally went to sleep.

When Yinzhen woke up the next morning, he was full of energy, but Tong Cheng'er was somewhat listless.

Looking at his young wife's appearance, Yinzhen felt a pang of regret. He had been too excited yesterday and hadn't considered her feelings. It seemed she probably hadn't gone to sleep until very late.

Yinzhen said, "Since you have nothing else to do, why don't you sleep a little longer?"

Tong Cheng'er shook her head: "No need, I'll get up and have dinner with you."

Seeing this, Yinzhen felt a pang of heartache; it was his oversight.

However, they didn't force her not to get out of bed. The imperial physician said that eating meals on time every day would make her less prone to illness.

He doted on his young wife, and at the same time, he hoped even more that she would stay healthy.

After the two got up and washed, they had breakfast together. After breakfast, Yinzhen was about to go to his post. Seeing that he was about to leave, Tong Cheng'er couldn't help but ask him before he left, "Do you have any plans for the Ministry of Revenue's loan?"

Yinzhen shook his head and then nodded: "I took what you said yesterday to heart, and I have some thoughts on it, but I need to think about it some more."

What the young lady said is indeed very good, but it involves many vested interests, so let's take it slow! After all, it's much better than his original idea.

Tong Cheng'er nodded: "Then think about it carefully. Oh, right, there's something else I didn't have time to tell you yesterday."

"you say."

"Actually, I think Father Emperor is still too poor. If what is said is true, Father Emperor can form a merchant caravan belonging to the imperial court. Merchants can make money, and there is no reason why Father Emperor cannot make money."

Tong Cheng'er knew that what she said was somewhat inappropriate, but the Qing Dynasty needed to have its own monopolistic industries, not too many, but necessary.

However, on the other hand, the current era follows the social hierarchy of scholars, farmers, artisans, and merchants, with merchants having a low social status. It would probably be quite difficult for the Emperor to engage in business.

Despite the difficulty, Tong Cheng'er still spoke up. She could see that Yinzhen hoped for a better Qing Dynasty. Although she didn't know what the future held, she decided to follow in Yinzhen's footsteps for now.

He wanted to address the issue of the Ministry of Revenue's lending practices, so she offered him as many suggestions as possible.

Yinzhen was taken aback upon hearing this.

Doing business?

He secretly engaged in business and made a lot of money. He didn't have the same aversion to merchants as Yongzheng did. But it was too difficult to let his father, the Emperor, do business.

He was able to do business in his life because his father, the Emperor, took pity on him. His maternal clan couldn't help him and even dragged him down. His father was afraid he would go hungry, so he turned a blind eye to it.

I still remember the scene in my dream where my father was furious about Yinzhen's desire to go into business, which shows that my father did not approve of it.

Because of what the young consort said, Yinzhen thought about it seriously. The court had its own commercial benefits, and the more he thought about it, the more benefits he felt there were, but at the same time, there would be no shortage of troubles.

After all, if the imperial court were to engage in commerce, everyone would know that it would not lose money, and there would be many opportunists, making it more troublesome to manage.

Moreover, it would harm the interests of merchants. Although merchants have a low social status, they can wield considerable power when you really look at it.

Yinzhen decided to think carefully about how to bring this up with his father, the Emperor.

Yes, Yinzhen took Tong Cheng'er's opinion to heart and really intended to discuss the matter of the court engaging in commerce with Kangxi.

But not now.

After listening to so much from his wife yesterday, Yinzhen learned a lot, such as the importance of offering the right advice at the right time to achieve the desired effect.

Now that the imperial court has no shortage of money, this matter cannot be brought up.

"I've got your word in mind. Rest at home and don't overwork yourself."

Tong Cheng'er nodded: "Don't worry, I won't mistreat myself."

The servants attending to the two felt helpless upon hearing this. Someone like the Fujin really didn't need to be told to rest well; she truly wouldn't tire herself out.

This is probably what they mean by "lazy people have good fortune"!

Yinzhen went on his official business, but Tong Cheng'er was a little different from usual today. She was thinking about whether she could do something for Yinzhen.

She wasn't a history major, but she had some basic historical knowledge. Yesterday, when she heard Yinzhen say that he dreamed about the situation hundreds of years in the future, she knew that he must have dreamed about that difficult period.
