Chapter 1800: Is our family very poor?
The King of Southern Xinjiang seemed to see through his daughter's thoughts and suddenly became furious.
"How much is your face worth?"
"She laughs at you, and you won't lose a piece of meat, right?"
Our entire southern Xinjiang will be laughed at by the world!
What we are missing is not just a piece of meat, but real money!
"Look at you, you're always feeding meat to other people's pets, deer, sheep, chickens, rabbits..."
The King of Southern Xinjiang felt distressed, and all his thoughts came out at once.
"Wouldn't it be better to eat those things yourself?"
"Wouldn't it be better to sell it?"
"Wouldn't it be better to change it into money?"
"Do you know how poor our family is?"
"Did you know..."
"Father?" Princess Zimo widened her eyes in shock, as if she didn't understand what her father meant.
What do you mean by selling it?
What does it mean to be extremely poor?
The King of Southern Xinjiang: "..."
The voice paused.
His expression changed.
Why did he blurt out his true feelings in front of so many people?
"Ahem!" The King of Southern Xinjiang coughed twice to cover it up, waved his hand, and said, "Father has something else to do, please leave."
How could Princess Zimo be willing to leave?
"Father, is our family very poor?"
The King of Southern Xinjiang: "..."
It's more than just poverty. They're so poor they can barely afford to eat.
The King of Southern Xinjiang looked into his daughter's innocent eyes, and thought of the trust she had placed in him since childhood. The words on the tip of his tongue could not be uttered.
My daughter is innocent and should live a happy and carefree life. It is better not to tell her these things.
The King of Southern Xinjiang sighed and was about to evade the question when a minister spoke up.
"Princess, you don't know that the national treasury is now empty, the monarch's private treasury is almost emptied, and the wealth of all of us has been emptied out. Our Southern Xinjiang, from top to bottom, is penniless..."
When the minister said this, he burst into tears with sadness.
Not only was he poor, he also lost his official position... wuwu...
Princess Zimo: "...How could this happen?"
Princess Zimo looked surprised.
These days she was only thinking about abducting Dabai and Dalang, and didn't pay any attention to the fact that the top leaders of the entire southern Xinjiang were all in a gloomy mood.
Of course, she didn't notice that her father was frowning every day.
"Sister, because we need to cure the addiction to Xiaoyao Powder, all the money in the hands of father and the others has been used to buy the antidote for Xiaoyao Powder." Prince Saji explained to his sister, "Now, most of our southern border's wealth has been in the hands of the young princess of Dayan."
Saji paused here.
He added, "Princess Su is rich enough to rival a nation, richer than all of us. Sister, please stop feeding her pet for free."
As a prince, he now doesn't even have pocket money.
Princess Zimo: "..."
"It turns out that all our money was given to Su Tang..." Princess Zimo murmured.
"That's right." An old official coughed dryly and said shamelessly, "The princess has been in frequent contact with Princess Su these days, so I guess they have become quite close. I wonder if the princess could ask Princess Su to reduce some of the medical expenses for your sake?"
He has already lost his official position. If he doesn't save some money, how will he live in the future?
However, even though I think this way in my heart, I still have to put aside my selfish thoughts.
"Of course, it doesn't matter if we are poor, but it is not appropriate to have an empty treasury. Moreover, all the money in Southern Xinjiang flows into Dayan, which is even more disadvantageous to our Southern Xinjiang."
"Exactly, exactly..."
Others began to echo.
Although it is an old saying that he failed with the high priest and is now suspected of deceiving Princess Zimo, it is undeniable that this matter is indeed very disadvantageous for Southern Xinjiang.
At this moment, everyone's face showed an expression of anticipation, and their eyes were full of hope as they looked at Princess Zimo.
It seemed as if Princess Zimo was their last straw.
Princess Zimo: "..."
Do you have such a big face?
Are you friends with Su Tang?
Every time I went to Su Tang's place, I went to feed Dabai and Dalang, and I had no interaction with Su Tang at all.
Princess Zimo opened her mouth.
For some reason, under everyone's expectant gazes, she suddenly couldn't bring herself to say no.
What's more, this matter concerns the stability of southern Xinjiang.
"Are you stupid?" Princess Zimo thought for a moment and said in confusion, "Su Tang is so rich, can't we just leave her in Southern Xinjiang? Isn't her money still our Southern Xinjiang money?"
Everyone: “…”
Don't they want to stay?
They want it too!
"Princess, do you want to take Princess Su hostage? I'm afraid the high priest won't agree," someone said hesitantly. "What's more, if Dayan uses this as an excuse to attack Southern Xinjiang..."
It's not that they haven't thought about it, but since it concerns the diplomatic relations between the two countries, they dare not act rashly.
Furthermore, neither the current high priest nor the successor high priest would agree.
"How could you think that?" Princess Zimo's eyes widened as she looked at the person who had spoken. "Su Tang saved my southern border from trouble on the day of the divine sacrifice. He was a great favor to us. How could you repay a favor with evil? That's what a despicable and shameless person would do!"
That person: “…”
I don't!
I'm not!
The man's face flushed red and he quickly tried to make amends for himself.
"Princess, you misunderstood. That's not what I meant..."
"Then what do you mean? It's something that can be easily resolved, yet you're so treacherous and heartless that you're willing to provoke a war between our two countries." Princess Zimo said with a puzzled look on her face, "Are you getting senile?"
That person: “…”
He didn't!
He is not!
Others: “…”
Why do they feel their faces burning?
There was no other way. They had all secretly thought of detaining the young princess of Dayan in southern Xinjiang.
Even if you can't detain the person, you must find a way to keep the money.
Anyway, Dayan is thousands of miles away from southern Xinjiang.
It is normal to encounter several waves of robbers along the way.
Anyone who wouldn't be tempted by such a huge fortune would be a fool.
Especially for those who are now extremely poor, they are reluctant to let it go.
At this moment, after hearing what Princess Zimo said, these people couldn't help but identify themselves with the person they were talking about.
"Ahem, Yimoer means..." The King of Southern Xinjiang coughed twice and asked.
He was rescuing the old minister, and also rescuing himself.
Because he thought so too.
"Father, are you confused too?" Zi Mo blurted out, "Su Tang hasn't married yet. We have so many good men in Southern Xinjiang. As long as we win her heart, we can make her stay in Southern Xinjiang!"
The King of Southern Xinjiang: "..."
Opened his mouth.
Why didn't he think of it?
He is really getting senile!
Zimo looked at Saji again and said with a face full of complaints: "Brother, I told you to pursue Su Tang a long time ago, but you insisted on wanting to marry Yi Mo. You are so blind!"
Saji: “…”
He was wrong!
He is blind!
How did he know that a little girl from a merchant family suddenly became the little princess of Dayan?
Moreover, she is a little princess who can become rich enough to rival a country with just a little effort.
