Chapter 306: Have you noticed that your son has changed?

Yun Shu: “…”

It’s a good guess, but I suggest you stop guessing, as you may get beaten to death by your father.

He pressed Yun Chuhuan's head back with one hand and forced him to forget the words "Father is a garbage recycling station".
That afternoon, the slowly advancing team finally arrived in the capital.

Yun Shu was the first to get off the carriage, and sure enough, all the famous ministers in the court had arrived.
Thanks to Princess Yunshu, Tang Yuanlin was able to stand in the first row next to the right prime minister as a fourth-rank official.

When he saw Yun Shu coming out of the carriage, a smile immediately appeared in his eyes.
The old man subconsciously took a step forward.
The next second, he saw a black shadow flashing before his eyes. When he could see clearly again,
Minister Yan had already rushed to Yun Shu and began to speak incoherently:
"Your Highness, you know that I have never been submissive to many people in my life. Apart from Your Majesty, only Your Highness can make me bow down to you!
What does it mean to be in control of the situation and what does it mean to win the battle from thousands miles away?

You are living in a farm outside the city, but you can still influence this year's commercial tax revenue with an article published in Tiansheng Weekly..."

"Master Yan, please speak directly."

Yun Shu interrupted him with a smile:

"The commercial taxes collected this year must be much higher than last year?"

"That's more than a little bit too much!"

Minister Yan, who always had a stern face and looked more serious than anyone else, couldn't help laughing out loud as he spoke:

“Originally this year, because new roads have been built with cement in various places, there are more caravans traveling than before.

As soon as your article "Secrets to Getting Rich Quickly" came out, chambers of commerce everywhere filled it in like crazy.

There are even quite a few large merchants who could legally avoid taxes, but they don't do so and simply pay the highest level!
Five hundred million! Hahahahahahahaha, I never dared to imagine that just one commercial tax could bring in five hundred million taels of silver to the national treasury in a year!"

It has nearly tripled compared to last year.
No wonder Minister Yan was so happy.

Yun Shu was infected by Minister Yan's wide-open smile, and couldn't help but laugh along with him:

"Minister Yan, just dream boldly. I can guarantee that next year's commercial tax will reach a new high!"

"Hahahahahaha, Your Highness is right! Then I won't be polite!

After I go back today, I will ask my wife to change my pillow and live out my dream of earning 600 million in business taxes a year!"

Yun Shu: “?”

He said it with such lofty aspirations that he even changed his pillow in order to dream boldly.

And you dare to dream of 600 million?
Who do you look down on?
Shaking his head helplessly, Yun Shu passed by Minister Yan who was still having fun and bowed to the ministers behind him:

"Thank you for waiting."

"I am terrified!"

Everyone quickly responded:

"Your Highness has personally set an example to reassure the people of the world and allow them to receive the smallpox vaccine with peace of mind.

We are only waiting here for a short while, which is nothing in comparison!"

……

In order to allow more people to witness this scene with their own eyes, Yun Shu said a lot of polite words.

The two sides fought back and forth for several rounds until Yun Shu felt that it was almost time.

Then he looked around and searched among the crowd:
"Is the Minister of the Ministry of Rites here?"

"Chen is here!"

The position of the Minister of the Honglu Temple was not very high. He was just quietly mixing with the crowd, making up the numbers, and making some money. He was quite happy with it.

The Minister of the Honglu Temple, who had no idea what was going on, suddenly stopped laughing when his name was suddenly called. Fortunately, Yun Shu was not looking for trouble with him.
She just pointed to the end of the team:

"The Beixiang delegation has arrived. You should know better than me how to receive them."

"Yes Yes……"

He was so scared that he thought he had accidentally done something wrong!

Lifting his sleeve and casually wiping his forehead twice, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites could not help but murmur in his heart -

Clearly, the post station had sent a letter before, saying that the Beixiang delegation would arrive in Beijing in about three days!
How come it suddenly arrived today?
Are you trying to do something weird again?
He secretly raised the level of vigilance against the Beixiang delegation to the highest level. After Yun Shu and the others left, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites immediately put on a professional fake smile and headed towards the delegation.

As for Yun Shu, after her performance at the city gate, there was no other work that required her to show up.

She returned to the palace smoothly, thinking about the contents of the letters that her arrogant father had written to her these days.

Yun Shu didn't even go back to the Eastern Palace, but went to the Imperial Study first.

At that time, Emperor Xuanwu was still sitting in front of the dragon table, secretly thinking about what would happen if a certain brat didn't remember to see him today.

Starting tomorrow, the number of memorials she has to handle will double.

Suddenly, Li Dehai ran in from outside with a happy face, saying that the princess wanted to see him.

The curve of Emperor Xuanwu's mouth suddenly rose significantly.

But the next moment, he snorted nonchalantly:
"Let her in!"

"Yes!"

Li Dehai suppressed his smile, knowing that the man was anxious to see Her Royal Highness the Princess, so he did not dare to delay for a moment and quickly turned around to invite the man in.

"Your son pays respects to the Emperor!"

Her unique and cheerful voice once again sounded in the imperial study.

Emperor Xuanwu glanced at her nonchalantly, then frowned:
"Didn't you say you can eat five bowls of rice for three meals a day? Why are you still losing weight?"

"Not skinny!"

Yun Shu subconsciously glanced at his waist:
"Isn't this good? I was worried that I would gain weight because I sat in the house all day long."

She came up to Emperor Xuanwu with a smile, half-lying over the dragon table with her upper body, holding her cheeks with both hands:

"Father, have you noticed that I have changed?"

"What changed?"

Emperor Xuanwu raised his eyebrows and stared at it carefully for a long while.

But before he could figure out what had changed, he saw her tilt her head again and said in a nonchalant manner, laughing:

"Has my son become more beautiful?"

Emperor Xuanwu: “…”

Where does this shamelessness come from?
He extended a finger in disdain, pressed it against her forehead, and pushed her away. Emperor Xuanwu rolled his eyes at her in annoyance:
"You came to me as soon as you returned to the palace, just to talk about this?"

“This is indeed more important.”

Yun Shu nodded seriously:
"But there is another little thing I have to tell you.

It must be the Beixiang envoys. They arrived early today, and happened to meet my team halfway before entering the city.

Afterwards, the Seventh Prince of Beixiang also expressed his intention to cooperate with me, saying that he could give me a city as a token of his sincerity."
