"Let's go back to the manor!" Zhou Yuying said triumphantly.
Without Li Zhiwei, Prince An will only belong to her.
Once she's in the Prince An's mansion, she'll teach that brat Xu Qingshi a lesson.
Golden Palace
"This humble subject, Li Tianyou, greets Your Majesty! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!" Li Tianyou bowed deeply to Zhu Jingchen with trepidation.
"No need for formalities!" Zhu Jingchen said with a smile, this was his cash cow.
Zhu Jingchen summoned this person to the palace for a reason.
Rumor has it that Li Tianyou has a real knack for making money.
The reason why the national treasury is empty is because those people in the Ministry of Revenue are useless.
Just then, the Vice Minister of Revenue retired and returned to his hometown, making him the best candidate to become the Minister of Revenue.
Zhu Jingchen could already imagine that with Li Tianyou in charge, his national treasury would be overflowing with gold coins.
When the time comes, he will build himself a golden bed so that he can dream of the smell of gold every night.
Let's see who dares to laugh at their Lanno Kingdom for being poor.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Li Tianyou felt a burning gaze on him, but he dared not look up.
He felt a little uneasy and prayed that he could leave the palace to see his daughter soon.
"Li Tianyou, on behalf of the people of Lanno Kingdom, I thank your Li family for your generosity and righteousness," Zhu Jingchen said with a light cough.
"It is an honor for the Li family to be able to share the burdens of the Emperor and the people," Li Tianyou quickly replied.
"Is it true that the Li family is a wealthy and influential family in our Lanno Kingdom?" Zhu Jingchen had seen the dowry donated by Li Zhiwei. It was incredibly diverse and comprehensive. Some of the items were things that even he, the emperor, had never seen before.
He had to admit that Li Tianyou was indeed a formidable person.
"I wouldn't dare." Upon hearing this, Li Tianyou broke out in a cold sweat. Could it be that he had also threatened the Emperor's interests?
"Hey, Li Tianyou, don't be afraid. It just means you're a good manager." Zhu Jingchen, seeing Li Tianyou's posture, figured he must have misunderstood him, and quickly said.
"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty." Li Tianyou was sweating profusely. This was his first time facing the emperor, and he had no idea what the emperor was up to.
"I'm not praising you, but think about it. There are many capable people in the Ministry of Revenue, but none of them are as competent as you, Li Tianyou." Zhu Jingchen felt extremely disgusted when he thought of those useless people in the Ministry of Revenue.
They're all just occupying the toilet without doing their business.
They still want to eat his food and use his things.
Sometimes, they wouldn't allow this or that. Even if he wanted to make a dragon robe, they had to calculate it carefully. Just thinking about it made him feel frustrated.
Li Tianyou dared not respond to that.
Accepting that would offend the officials of the Ministry of Revenue, wouldn't it?
If they ever make some kind of deal, I'll be the one who suffers.
"Li Tianyou, I wonder if you have any intention of entering the court as an official?" Zhu Jingchen asked Li Tianyou with a smile.
To enter the imperial court and serve as an official?
Li Tianyou was dumbfounded.
