"What are you laughing at? The King is right. Why fight a war if not to make money?" As a 'half-princess', the wicked husband naturally blindly supported Ying Zheng.
"Ahem..." Ying Zheng cleared his throat, his gaze falling on his wicked husband, and instructed, "This is all I can give you. The rest is up to your own abilities."
