Chapter 296 Establishing Cooperation



"You can learn how to make a wedding dress if you don't know how, but it's too late for you to learn now. How about this, you embroider a pair of pillows instead! Find someone else to embroider the rest."

Zhao Hanyue thought about it and realized that even if she asked the girl to learn now, she probably wouldn't be able to. The wedding dress was already very complicated and couldn't be embroidered in a short time. It seemed that she would have to find someone else to help. There was also Xin Xin's dowry to prepare.

Xin Xin is marrying into the royal family to become a princess, so how can her dowry be small?

With that thought in mind, Zhao Hanyue didn't have time to pay attention to Lin Yuxin anymore. She simply kicked Lin Yuxin out; she had things to do.

Lin Yuxin, who had been kicked out, touched her nose and chuckled, "As long as I don't have to embroider my wedding dress, anything is fine."

Just then, a servant came over and said that a young master was looking for her!

Lin Yuxin immediately guessed who it was and had someone take him to the reception area.

May Princess Pingning be blessed with long life and good health!

As soon as Qiu Jingfan entered, he saw Lin Yuxin sitting in the seat of honor, drinking tea, looking lazy and languid.

"Your Highness is too kind. Has Your Highness come here today because you've come to a realization?"

Lin Yuxin saw Qiu Jingfan, parted her lips slightly, and asked directly.

“Princess Pingning is indeed wise. I agree to cooperate with you, so please send me back to Zhao as soon as possible.”

Qiu Jingfan now greatly admires Princess Pingning. This woman not only has courage but also ability; she truly possesses a convincing skill.

"Since the Second Prince has agreed to our cooperation, we need to make it clear beforehand that we will help you return to your country and assist you in becoming emperor, on the condition that your Zhao Kingdom cannot send troops against the Xia Kingdom for a hundred years. Can you do that?"

When Lin Yuxin heard Qiu Jingfan's eagerness to go back, she didn't nod, but instead repeated the conditions with a serious expression.

"Of course, I will definitely keep my promise since I have made it to you."

Seeing Lin Yuxin's serious expression, Qiu Jingfan assumed she didn't believe him and immediately repeated himself in a serious tone.

"Okay! Sign this one, then we'll talk about the next one!"

Seeing that he had admitted it, Lin Yuxin quickly pulled a piece of paper from her bosom and made him sign it.

"What's this?"

Qiu Jingfan stared at the paper with a puzzled expression. He picked it up and examined it, his face growing increasingly dark with each glance. Finally, unable to contain himself any longer, he questioned:

“Princess Pingning, something’s not right here! I’ve become the emperor, why should I help the Xia Kingdom? Is the Zhao Kingdom always there for you when the Xia Kingdom is in trouble? It makes it sound like the Zhao Kingdom is just a little brother.”

"Furthermore, in order to promote friendship between the two countries, we must open up trade between them. Zhao's specialty grains must be sold to Xia at half price. Aren't you robbing us?"

Qiu Jingfan grew angrier and angrier as he spoke. It felt like a contract of servitude! No, it was a contract of treason!

Upon hearing Qiu Jingfan's question, Lin Yuxin, with a look of disapproval, began to carefully analyze the situation for him:

"That's a harsh way to put it. How can it be considered robbery? We're discussing this. Look, once you become emperor, you'll be the top leader of Zhao, and the future development of Zhao will be entirely up to you."

"This will open up trade between the two countries, promote friendship, increase exchanges, and enable both countries to make progress, achieve common prosperity, and develop together! Have you been to my fiefdom before? Jibei City?"

Lin Yuxin asked.

Qiu Jingfan hesitated for a moment, then nodded; he had indeed been there.

Seeing him nod, Lin Yuxin knew she was right; this kid had investigated her before. So she continued to deceive... no, to be reasonable:

“There is a commercial street that I built there. It has now become the trading center for merchants from the Xia Kingdom. Merchants from all over the Xia Kingdom, or other people who are traveling, will stay there, play, and trade, which will increase the trade value of Jibei City.”

"It will also make the entire city of Jibei more prosperous. If our two countries cooperate, we can turn Zhao and Xia into a commercial street, boosting the economies of both countries. Do you think our two countries won't prosper? Why should we be afraid of Qi?"

"And by then, you will be the only one in Zhao who can lead the people to a life of peace, prosperity, and wealth. You will surely be remembered throughout history!"

It can be said that Lin Yuxin's promise was incredibly grand, and it actually persuaded Qiu Jingfan, making him extremely excited. He felt that he would become the greatest emperor of Zhao in the next second, leading Zhao to glory.

Although he is still a prince with nothing and his life is in danger at any time, people can't help but dream!

"Okay! I'll sign!"

Qiu Jingfan was brainwashed by Lin Yuxin, and in a moment of impulsiveness, he picked up the calligraphy brush that Xiao Die handed him and signed his name.

After a long while, Qiu Jingfan finally realized that he was not the emperor yet and could die at any time, so signing the document would be useless.

He considered saying something to back out, but ultimately didn't say it. Oh well, the contract was already signed, and it was useless now. He'd wait until he became emperor to deal with it.

Lin Yuxin accepted the signed contract with satisfaction, folded it, put it in her sleeve, and then threw it directly into her spatial storage. Only then did she say to Qiu Jingfan:

"Now that you've signed the agreement, we're partners. Let's talk about what to do next!"

"What should we do? Shouldn't we send me back to Zhao immediately?"

Qiu Jingfan asked, puzzled, "Do we need to use some special method to deal with Fifth Brother? That incredibly powerful thing?"

Qiu Jingfan looked at Lin Yuxin with some excitement as he thought about this.

Lin Yuxin: ...?

This second prince seems a bit dim-witted! Did she pick the wrong person?

"Going back now would just be suicide; we have to wait!"

Lin Yuxin gave Qiu Jingfan a look as if he were mentally challenged before speaking.
