The two looked at the wrinkled little child, and their hearts softened.
In the end, the old prince could not resist his persistence, and the child was named Gu Chenguang.
In the end, Gu Yanming did not ascend the throne to become emperor, but remained King Wucheng.
King Wucheng and his ministers went to court as usual and handled government affairs. Everyone performed their duties. If there was any disagreement, they would vote to decide.
Ye Xinran quietly put back the money that had been taken from the national treasury. He also put back an extra 10% as the economic pillar of a country.
Now, there is no emperor in the palace. The palace has no other use except for holding court. Everyone thinks that it is a waste of money to keep so many palace maids and eunuchs, and wants to dismiss them all.
Palace maids were fine, as they could get married after leaving the palace. But eunuchs, after leaving the palace, could do nothing, could not get married, and had no offspring.
Ye Xinran came up with an idea.
"Why not turn the palace into a park where you can pay to enter!"
Gu Yanming was surprised, "Ranran, tell me more about it!"
Ye Xinran then expressed her specific thoughts.
That is to say, the palace was turned into a park that could be entered for a fee. In this way, the fees collected could be used to support those who could not survive outside the palace, as well as the emperor's concubines, etc., as well as the chefs in the imperial kitchen and the imperial doctors in the palace.
For example, wealthy merchants could pay 100 taels of silver per person to take a one-day tour of the palace, complete with a four-course meal and a soup! Plus a professional consultation with an imperial physician!
I believe many people would like to visit the palace.
If you want to stay in the palace, you can! Three hundred taels, a two-day tour of the palace, including accommodation! Anyway, there are many places to stay in the palace.
The money collected can be used to repair the palace, pay for the maids and eunuchs, and support the concubines! If it works well, it will definitely make a fortune! At that time, it can also replenish the national treasury!
Ye Xinran thought, in modern society, the Forbidden City receives 17 million tourists a year. If they get 10%, they will make a fortune! After all, the charm of the palace is still great!
The more Gu Yanming listened, the more excited he became!
Finally, this idea was brought up at the morning court session. Most of the ministers agreed, but a small number took a wait-and-see attitude.
The news spread quickly.
Zhu Qian was a person with a lot of money. She brought her one-year-old son, Daoqin, Mr. Zhu, and Mrs. Zhu. She paid 10,000 taels and arranged a professional private tour. In addition to the standard tour of the palace, she also had imperial meals in the morning, noon, and evening, and consulted with the imperial physician. She and Daoqin also rode all the precious horses in the royal stables.
Finally, she took a bath in a hot spring that only imperial concubines could take baths in. She was served by palace maids in various ways.
It can be as comfortable as you want.
The palace maids and eunuchs also received a lot of tips. They were all very happy. They didn't have to worry about being beaten or killed by their masters. Now their safety was guaranteed.
Palace maids who want to get married can also apply to leave the palace and get married.
Many wealthy businessmen, officials and ordinary people, after seeing Zhu Qian's success story, signed up and wanted to take a look at the palace.
Because there were too many people, they had to limit the number of people entering the palace every day. The queue started and stretched to three months later. But the number of people still increased. Some people even paid a high price to get in line.
The current chief steward of the palace was very happy to collect money and enter it into the account every day. He was very friendly to the young eunuchs and palace maids.
Ye Xinran and Ye Liang decided to buy the entire street next to the imperial palace and turn it into a food street in Yanjing City.
The first floor is full of various special snacks, and the second floor is a restaurant, inn, and teahouse. The courtyard and house at the back are elegantly built and used as a club for receiving literati and scholars.
On the opening day, the whole street was bustling with people and carriages. Yanran became a new landmark in Yanjing City.
The revenue of the entire street on the first day was an astronomical figure. After that, every day thereafter, people made huge profits.
Ye Xinran handed over all the work to her subordinates. The children were taken care of by the old prince and princess. She became an idle person. Every day she was idle, just going shopping with Zhu Qian and a few new female companions! How comfortable!
Half a year later, Long Er came back to report to Gu Yanming, and Gu Zhenting was dead. He had a mental disorder caused by drugs, and then fell into the water and died.
That’s right, Long Er is Gu Yanming’s man, and King Wensheng was also killed by Gu Yanming.
The emperor's secret guards have always been led by the Wucheng Palace since the first generation.
Unfortunately, Gu Zhenting didn’t know.
Gu Yanming didn't want to be constrained by the people of the late emperor's lineage. How could he let them go when the late emperor treated his grandfather and father like this? Now, only King Zhou Ting was left alive! However, King Zhou Ting was a sickly person and didn't have many days left to live.
After everything was done, Ye Xinran and Gu Yanming took their children and traveled around the world!
When encountering corrupt officials on the road, Ye Xinran simply took all their property and distributed it to the people!
Gradually, the people spread the rumor that Princess Wucheng was a fairy who came down to earth to help the people who were suffering.
