Yun Zheng was the only daughter of the richest man in Daqi, wealthy beyond measure. In her previous life, she married into the Marquis's estate with a dowry covering ten li, only to become a la...
Chapter 235 Hanging Ye Yizhen on the City Wall
The emperor's tone was extremely cold. "Hang Ye Yizhen on the city wall. Seven days later, execute him at the Meridian Gate."
"yes."
Yun Zheng knew nothing about this. She slept soundly and came to the Imperial Household Department in high spirits, only to see several gray faces.
She looked at the dark circles under the eyes of the princes and twitched her lips. "Everyone, what's wrong with your eyes? Did you fight?"
Are you really that stupid that you didn't sleep?
The eldest prince felt a little uncomfortable and cleared his throat, "I stayed up all night last night and didn't sleep."
The competitive princes were unwilling to be the first to ask to go back and rest, and just endured it.
Who could have imagined that checking accounts would be so troublesome? His mind is now filled with densely packed numbers, and his head aches badly.
The only good thing was that he was fully aware of the losses that Guangchusi had incurred over the past five years.
Wow, the loss was so huge.
It’s no wonder that my father was angry and brought Yun Zheng up despite the opposition of all the officials in the court.
Yun Zheng shook her head slightly. "You can't even make it through the night? You're such a pampered noble, aren't you? Have you finished your work?"
She was as cold-blooded and ruthless as Zhou Baopi, and the hearts of the princes were cold and it was a thankless job.
The eldest prince was silent for a moment, "Not yet..."
Yun Zheng's eyes rolled around mischievously, "You all seem to lack both ability and energy. What a shame! I was hoping to help you all make a fortune."
Everyone was shocked, here they come!
They worked so hard to stay here, not only to sabotage the Third Prince's plans to take Yun Zheng and the Ninth Prince with them, but also for the sake of profit!
A little that slipped out of her palm would be enough for a prince's palace to eat and drink.
The Fourth Prince immediately jumped in and said, "I'm not tired, not at all. I can still work for three days and three nights!"
The Second Prince confidently stated, "My abilities are fine, it's just them who are holding me back."
The Fourth Prince retorted, "You, a cripple, are a burden to us all."
The second prince was hit in the sore spot and rushed over in anger, "You are looking for death."
The second prince and the fourth prince were fighting each other. The eldest prince and the third prince stepped forward to mediate. Somehow, the war spread and the four men started fighting.
The followers looked at each other, but did not dare to step forward to separate the fight. They were all princes, and it would be bad if anyone was hurt.
Yun Zheng looked at him with a smile and said, "Beat him, beat him hard. Your father has sent someone to watch him."
Manager Zhang rushed over upon hearing the news, and his face turned green when he saw this scene.
If something happens here, who will be held responsible?
"Stop fighting, Princess Jinyun, tell me quickly, what opportunities are there to make a lot of money?"
Yun Zheng raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and her smile was particularly bright.
The Third Prince and the Fourth Prince shuddered at the same time. This smile...why does it make people feel a little scared?
Before they could think about it, they heard Yun Zheng's voice, "The money the Imperial Household Department earns from doing business with the Imperial Merchants is ultimately limited. I want to start a business and create exclusive customized products for the Imperial Household Department. Under the name of imperial use, I can bring in a steady stream of income."
Exclusive business? It means monopoly and huge profits.
If it is given the title of royal family, it will be a king bomb.
Everyone immediately became excited, "What's the big deal?"
Even the emperor is short of money, let alone these princes who have just established their own courts. They need money everywhere.
If you want to seize the throne and win over others, you must first have money!
Yun Zheng raised her chin and said, "Come with us."
The farm in the suburbs looks plain and unpretentious, no different from the surrounding farms.
The Third Prince looked around. This was too ordinary. "Is this farm yours?"
Yun Zheng nodded slightly, "Yes."
She suddenly remembered something, "Oh right, your followers can't go in."
Several followers were dissatisfied. "This won't work. If anything goes wrong, who will take the responsibility? Princess Jinyun, can you guarantee the prince's safety?"
Guaranteed nothing. Yun Zheng rolled her eyes. "If you're afraid, don't go in. Who forced you to come? Let's go now."
Go? That's absolutely impossible.
The eldest prince's feet seemed glued to the ground, and he laughed, "It's broad daylight, under the emperor's feet, what danger could there be? Don't make a fuss."
The Second Prince glared at his followers in anger, "That's right, you are too timid. Could Princess Jinyun deliberately harm us?"
The Fourth Prince held his head high, extremely arrogant. "Who dares to touch me? Aren't you afraid that your entire family will be executed?"
The Third Prince gave the order directly, "Don't go in, just guard outside."
Once inside, I discovered there was something else.
Teams of guards can be seen everywhere, and the patrols are very strict, which makes people feel nervous involuntarily.
Yun Zheng stopped in front of a side courtyard, which was surrounded by guards.
The door opened, and a middle-aged man came out with a flattering smile, "Princess, you are here."
Yun Zheng asked, "Is everything going well?"
The steward nodded vigorously, his eyes sparkling. "It went smoothly. Everything was done as you wished."
Everyone walked in curiously, and the two huge glass windows immediately attracted their attention.
The Third Prince's eyes widened in shock. "Wow, this is priceless colored glass? Such a large piece is used to make a window? How much does it cost? Was it given to you by the Emperor? How come I've never seen such a fine thing before?"
The crystal clear glass emits dazzling light in the sun. When you walk in, you will see various glass products with exquisite craftsmanship, like works of art.
Everyone's eyes lit up. Just this glass house was priceless.
Who would have thought that such a treasure would appear in an ordinary farm.
The Fourth Prince picked up a pure glass and couldn't help but exclaim, "This is even purer and more beautiful than the luminous cups sent as tribute from the Western Regions. Where did this come from?"
Yun Zheng proudly showed off, "This is made according to my Yun family's secret recipe."
Made it yourself? Everyone felt as if they saw mountains of gold and silver waving at them, and they couldn't help but feel ecstatic.
The Third Prince expressed his doubts, "How could you bear to give away this family heirloom?"
Yun Zheng smiled slightly, "I invested in the company with the recipe, and the Emperor promised to give me dividends."
Okay, the king and his ministers have already discussed it.
Manager Zhang was stunned. He didn't expect Yun Zheng to cause such a big trouble right under his nose without informing him!
The Fourth Prince showed a delighted expression, "Not bad, not bad. Give me a set like this."
Yun Zheng smiled slightly. "These royal glass windows are five thousand taels each. How many do you need?"
The price is not expensive. A small glass luminous cup costs tens of thousands. The quality of this glass window is much better, and it is such a big piece.
But the Fourth Prince was not happy. He asked unconvincedly, "They say it's royal glass, why should I pay for it?"
"Wrong, it's your father's stuff."
The Second Prince frowned slightly, "You called us here, aren't you trying to sell us something?"
He really wants it, but he doesn't have that much money!
Yun Zheng's eyes rolled. "Do you want to make some money?"
Although the Fourth Prince looks good, he usually spends money lavishly and has already spent all the money allocated for the year in a lavish manner.
"You want to give us money?"
Yun Zheng rolled her eyes at him. "What are you dreaming about? My money is only for the Emperor to spend. However, I can help you earn some pocket money."
Is she really that kind? Everyone didn't believe it, fearing there was a big trap waiting for her.
However, a strong desire to make money urged them on.
"Princess Jinyun, please tell me what you want us to do."
