Boss Xu really didn't understand. Shen Yuerong had already returned to her master's house and could take care of the business herself, so why should she give the business to someone else?
"You should have heard the rumors in the room. After I divorced the general, I became closer to that prince. I will not hide it from you. I want to marry that prince."
"Are you going to be a princess?"
"That's not so fast."
After all, it is right in front of us now. But there are many difficult problems that are difficult to solve.
Boss Xu, who had been looking somewhat cheerful, became somewhat disappointed after hearing this.
It was as if he was one of the protagonists who was deeply in love but could not get married.
"The troubles that the Shen family shop has encountered this time are most likely caused by me. I thought... it would be better to hand the shop over to someone else to manage. This way, I won't come here often, and slowly everyone will forget about me as a hands-off manager and won't intentionally make things difficult for them anymore."
The solution that Shen Yuerong came up with was also quite brilliant.
But in this way, Boss Xu became the main manager of the entire shop.
"Aren't you afraid that if you give me this position, I will just take the Shen family shop and change its owner?"
"That's what I deserve."
Since you have chosen to believe that others can do things for you, you will never doubt this person's nature.
Shen Yuerong placed the seal that had been made on the table, "Boss Xu, I specially asked someone to make this seal. I don't know if you want it, but... I am willing to give it to you."
Boss Xu looked at the seal on the table with some hesitation. His ambition prevented him from letting it go. He took it and thanked Shen Yuerong.
"I will definitely not let my employer down and will make sure everything is properly arranged."
Shen Yuerong also believed him.
When I returned to the Shen family at night, I didn't expect that the prince who had been busy day and night was here.
"Did the prince cause you any trouble? It's rare that you have time to come to my place today."
"I haven't had dinner with you for a long time. I didn't expect that if I came back first, you would go to the shop. What's the matter?"
"It's just a normal audit, and I'm handing over the power of the family to Boss Xu."
"You still gave it away?"
Shen Yuerong discussed this matter with Chi Mu. After all, it was her career, so Chi Mu did not interfere too much. Instead, he gave her all the money for her choice.
Shen Yuerong nodded.
"I don't think I'll have much chance to manage the shop in the future. Instead of letting them pile up all those accounts in my yard, where I can't finish reading them and won't be able to handle them in time if something goes wrong, it's better to delegate power to my subordinates."
"Following me will make you suffer."
"What kind of suffering am I going through?"
Shen Yuerong looked at the dishes on the table.
"Since I've been with you, the food and things I use in my yard, as well as the clothes and things I wear, have become much more expensive. A few days ago, my neighbor next door asked me if I was going to have good luck soon!"
When talking about marriage, Chi Mu was a little depressed and silent.
"I'm not forcing you to do anything by bringing up the matter of marriage, it's just..."
Chi Mu sighed and held her in his arms, "If it weren't for the current turbulent situation that forbade me to marry you, I would definitely ride in a sedan chair to welcome you into the palace and make you my legitimate princess."
"Who said I want to be your princess? Don't be shameless. The prince has never been able to push Fu Hengyu out. I always feel like there is a bigger conspiracy behind this."
She looked at him, somewhat worriedly, "I don't know what this prince wants?"
"What can the prince want? It's just the throne."
"But if your majesty dies, the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace has already been appointed, and his position is legitimate. Why would he argue with you?"
Shen Yuerong. Some people are puzzled as to why the prince is scheming like this.
"Although he has done a lot of dirty things over the years and is afraid of being investigated by His Majesty, he knows that he is willing to hide behind the scenes. It is not necessarily me who is investigating these things. If he doesn't embarrass me, I will naturally not stop."
Shen Yuerong had indeed not expected this, so naturally she had not thought that the prince would behave in this way.
"It's been a bit gloomy lately. How's your old leg injury?"
"It's nothing, it just rained a few times. You don't have to worry about me so much. You might as well worry about the court. Although the disaster has subsided, those poor people still have to rebuild their homes, which is a considerable expense. Has the court given any instructions?"
He shook his head. "No, Your Majesty wanted to talk about it a few times, but was fooled. He just said that the money would be taken from the national treasury, but there was not much in the national treasury."
This is a troublesome matter.
The second day.
The way the prince looked at Chi Mu made him feel a little strange, but the next second he saw him kneeling on the ground.
"Your Majesty, I have something to say."
The emperor didn't know what play the prince was singing, so he asked him quickly, "What's the matter? Just stand up and answer."
"A few days ago, my father was worried about the reconstruction of the disaster area, so he thought about taking money from the national treasury. However, the national treasury has been empty for a long time, and I am afraid it will be difficult to support the people to rebuild their homes. So I took the initiative to share your worries and raise funds among the merchants, especially the Shen family shop, which handed over a thousand taels of gold for subsidies."
A thousand taels of gold.
He really dared to speak up.
Chi Mu didn't ask Shen Yuerong how much the final fine was?
But this thousand taels of gold.
There is no way this could be the income of the Shen family shop in the past six months. It seems that in addition to the income from the shop, the shop owners have also made a lot of money.
"Really? Then it seems... Chen Yuerong is really as good as any man."
The national treasury was empty, but a shop that had only been in business for less than a year could easily hand over a thousand taels of gold. How could this make people feel that this matter was a bit strange?
Although Chi Mu wanted to stand up and speak for him, he didn't know how to start at this moment.
"Speaking of this, I have to thank the prince. The prince has been leading the troops to stop the flood for those innocent people. He is already very tired. I thought that the task of raising the charity funds would fall on my shoulders. Dacheng thought that after Miss Shen knew about this, she asked to see me several times. Even though I declined repeatedly, it was really hard to refuse her enthusiasm. So I had to reduce Miss Shen's donation. I would like to trouble the prince to express my gratitude again and again after he returns."
Many of the civil and military officials in the court knew that Shen Yuerong had often visited the prince in the past few days.
And the emperor naturally just wanted to know what Shen Yuerong wanted to say to him?
"As a merchant in the capital, the Shen family is protected by the capital on weekdays. Naturally, they should step forward at such a critical moment. This is not something... to be thankful for."
He was under pressure from everyone, but he could only temporarily let all the planning fall on himself.
This is exactly the result the prince wanted.
