Waiter: Are you shocked? Besides this landlord's concubine, Princess Yuyan's other concubines have even higher returns from their business ventures.
[Waiter: She has many mistresses, and there's more than one wealthy landowner who owns a lot of land; so, of course, there must be more than one mistress who's also involved in business.]
[Waiter: The tributes Princess Yuyang receives from her concubines each year are almost two-thirds of the national treasury's revenue. Do you think she is extremely wealthy?]
Wushuang took another breath.
What does it mean that you can get two-thirds of the national treasury revenue every year?
She is so rich that she can rival a country.
Is Princess Yuyang such a powerful person?
Is her face so powerful?
[Waiter: Although her mistress is quite capable, the reason she earns such a high salary is entirely due to her bullying and abusing her power for personal gain.]
[Waiter: Haven't you heard that all the ways to make money are written in the law?]
[Waiter: Princess Yuyang's lovers, half of them basically make money through illegal means.]
Wushuang really didn't expect this. She had thought Princess Yuyang was a good person before, and her values were at least not that distorted.
The result now left her stunned.
[Hiss—If that's the case, then Princess Yuyang is richer than her father? How could her father, an emperor, not be as wealthy as his own daughter?]
Waiter: Of course. The national treasury's income isn't the emperor's personal property, and there's a lot of money to be spent every year. The national treasury probably doesn't have as much money as Princess Yuyang right now.
"So, if we raid Princess Yuyang's private vault, wouldn't we become rich?" Wushuang said eagerly.
She had never met anyone like Princess Yuyang, and she really wanted to rob the rich and help the poor.
"Waiter, do you think I should rob the rich and help the poor? Princess Yuyang is so rich, I'm so jealous."
[I suddenly realized how poor I am.] Wushuang sighed.
Mo Yuncheng and Shangguan Sui: "..." We also feel that we are poor.
Mo Yuncheng looked at his half-sister with surprise. He really didn't expect that she was so rich.
The annual income is 60% to 70% of the national treasury, which is really appalling.
"Princess Yuyang is so rich, does she have a prince she supports? Has she sponsored any prince in his bid for the throne?" Wushuang asked curiously.
"Yes, she supports Prince Su." The waiter replied.
[Waiter: Most of the expenses for Prince Su's rebellion were supported by Princess Yuyang.]
[Goodness, goodness... Why would Princess Yuyang help Prince Su? They can't be siblings from the same mother, right?]
[Waiter: Prince Su promised that when he ascends the throne, he will make Princess Yuyang the Princess of the Nation, or even a king.]
[Waiter: As you know, the title of king is generally reserved for princes. But Prince Su promised her that even a princess could be crowned king, so of course she was tempted.]
[Empowering Princess Yuyang as a king? This Prince Su is surprisingly avant-garde?]
Wushuang really thinks that Prince Su is avant-garde in his thinking. He even dares to promise Princess Yuyang that she will be crowned king. He is really amazing.
[Waiter: After all, Princess Yuyang is now rich and powerful. Besides becoming the empress herself, the only thing that could attract her is, of course, the title of king.]
[Waiter: Prince Su wants to be the emperor, so of course he can't promise Princess Yuyang the title of Empress. He can only make her a princess.]
Mo Yuncheng listened to the inner conversation between Wushuang and the waiter, and looked at the back of Princess Yuyang who had left in anger.
Mo Wanrou had already been angered by Shangguan Ya's words. She was the legitimate daughter of a duke and the princess's sister-in-law, but she was despised by Shangguan Ya so much. How could she remain indifferent?
Before, when she saw Wushuang being disliked by Shangguan Ya, she gloated over it. Now it was her turn, and she understood the feeling of being disliked.
Mo Wanrou ran away, and Shangguan Ya took Lu Qingwan to socialize.
He knew very well that if Lu Qingwan wanted to marry him, she had to integrate into this environment, so he took people to meet other people.
Of course Shangguan Ya would not let Lu Qingwan meet those who had a bad relationship with him, or those who were very hostile and malicious towards Lu Qingwan. Since Lu Qingwan was attending a banquet for the first time, it would be better for her to meet people who were more friendly to her.
Shangguan Ya thought a lot about Lu Qingwan. Although he was only eighteen years old, he was still able to protect his beloved very well.
After Lu Qingwan left Wushuang, Shangguan Ya basically stayed by her side all the time.
So now the only ones left there were Wushuang, Shangguan Sui and Mo Yuncheng. Even Princess Yuyang saw the disappointing Mo Wanrou running away, and Shangguan Ya and the others also left. The others ignored her and left with gloomy faces.
She is the Princess Yuyang, rich enough to rival a country. How could she be ignored at the banquet she hosted?
It doesn’t matter if Shangguan Sui and Wushuang don’t give her face, there are plenty of people who want to curry favor with her.
Mo Yuncheng came back to his senses and said to Shangguan Sui, "You two can go have fun. I'll be leaving first."
Mo Yuncheng learned from Wushuang that Prince Su was going to rebel, and even that Duke Su was colluding with Prince Su to conceal the iron and gold mines. He also learned about Princess Yuyang's huge wealth, so he had to go back and deal with it.
Prince Su and Princess Yuyang are both the emperor's children. No matter whose business it is, they must tell Mo Xuan.
After all, Mo Xuan is the father of these two people and the emperor of Dayin. It is most correct for him to handle this matter.
Mo Yuncheng is a good prince, but he will not interfere in other people's affairs and handle matters without telling his father.
After all, he was only the crown prince, and the emperor was still his father.
"Farewell, Your Highness." Shangguan Sui bowed politely.
Wushuang also perfunctorily bowed and sent Mo Yuncheng away.
At this moment, only Wushuang and Shangguan Sui were left here.
She smiled and took Shangguan Sui's arm, then asked with a smile, "Husband, the yard is full of flowers today. Will you accompany me to see them?"
Shangguan Sui looked at her and nodded, "Okay."
Wushuang took his hand and happily admired the flowers with him.
Princess Yuyang is worthy of being someone who can compete with the emperor in wealth. The flowers she displayed at the flower viewing banquet this time were all very beautiful.
Wushuang saw many precious flowers. These things represent money. Without money, how could one afford to hire a gardener who could cultivate such excellent flowers?
"Princess Yuyang is so rich." Wushuang couldn't help but sigh. She reached out and pinched the leaves of a flower. Looking at the bright red flowers, she felt pretty good.
Shangguan Sui was silent.
"Husband, our family shouldn't be that rich, right?" Wushuang looked up at him and asked.
Shangguan Sui nodded.
Their Changping Marquis Mansion was indeed not as wealthy as Princess Yuyang, and he had nothing to be embarrassed about admitting it.
"It's more than enough to ensure you have food and clothing." Shangguan Sui comforted her.
"Well, I believe in my husband." Wushuang nodded with a smile, as if she trusted him wholeheartedly.
