After Breaking Off My Marriage, I Became A Powerful Minister's Treasure

Chapter 172: I know how to do it!

Of course, Xiao Hanzheng was deliberately revealing his flaws.

Otherwise, it would be easy for a godly doctor like him to pretend that he was ill.

He reached out to pull Shi Qingluo over and hugged her on his lap. “You helped me in and suddenly I don’t feel dizzy anymore.”

Shi Qingluo looked up at him with a smile. “Looks like I’m still your potion!”

Xiao Hanzheng smiled. “That’s right.”

Shi Qingluo looked at her little husband who was getting more and more good looking and leaned over to kiss his chin. “Then I want to be your sweet-tasting potion.”

“Yes, you are sweet.” Xiao Hanzheng lowered his head and rubbed her forehead.

Shi Qingluo smiled and reached out to pinch his waist. “You are jealous of a woman? Old Xiao, you’re really good!”

She couldn’t tell that her little husband had the potential to be a drama king.

Xiao Hanzheng hugged her tightly and said domineeringly, “You only belong to me.”

The smile in Shi Qingluo’s eyes deepened and she leaned into his arms. “Yes, yes, only yours.”

Oh my, her husband suddenly said the domineering words of a CEO. How exciting!

She didn’t expect to experience it in the modern world but she experienced it in the ancient times. Very good.

......

She was now used to asking her husband for advice. “Old Xiao, what do you think of Xi Rong’s proposal?”

Xiao Hanzheng was just a little jealous.

Hence, he would not really care about it or stop his wife from interacting with Xi Rong.

After all, it wasn’t easy for his wife to make a good friend, even though this friend was very inappropriate…

“You can cooperate with Xi Rong. She has a fantastic family background and she is not those that would betray others after gaining some achievements.”

He paused and said, “She wants to work with you to fund her military expenses.”

Shi Qingluo was stunned. “Fund her military expenses?

“She’ll probably build her own female army troop in the future.”

Xiao hanzheng paused and said, “The prince who killed her parents is already dead, but it was the Ge people who rushed in to slaughter her entire family.

“Back then, that prince used the Ge people’s power to try to seize the throne, but he failed.

“That marquess from the Ge kingdom who colluded with that prince is still alive.

“So, she must have hated the Ge people so much that she wanted to go to the battlefield to kill and take revenge.”

Shi Qingluo did not expect so many twists and turns in this plot.

If she was her, she would definitely want to avenge her parents.

“Then, we have to support her.”

She smiled and said, “So, Xi Rong is not only a female dandy, she will also be a strong woman in the future.”

“Mmm, so it’s good that you collaborate with her.”

Xiao Hanzheng did not have much feelings for Xi Rong, but he had heard that the female army she led was very brave on the battlefield.

This was something worth affirming.

After she finished talking about Xi Rong, Shi Qingluo suddenly thought of a problem. “Old Xiao, I went to take a look today. The corn will ripen in about ten days’ time.

“How should we offer this god-given seed?”

She could still explore and have fun dealing with the agriculture or business aspect of this.

But when it came to matters related to the court, she was really not good at it.

Xiao Hanzheng thought about what he knew in his past life.

He suddenly remembered something.

“Recently, that prince in the fief has been doing a lot of things.

“He has been spreading news in many places to accuse the current emperor of using his power to seize the throne, and that it is unorthodox.

“Many commoners were fueled and are making a ruckus.

“Now is the right time for us to deliver the corn grain. We can help the emperor resolve this unfavourable rumour.”

Shi Qingluo asked, “What you mean is that we say that this bag of high-yield seeds is bestowed by the heavens to our emperor to prove that he is actually orthodox?”

Xiao Hanzheng nodded. “More or less.

“I can imitate the old priest’s handwriting and write a will of what would happen to the corn.

“The intention is that the current emperor is orthodox and he is recognised by heaven.

“So, the heaven gods bestowed this bag of high-yield so that the people of Daliang will no longer die from famine.”

Of course, even if corn became a common good in Daliang, there would definitely still be people who would starve.

However, if they wanted to make it look like a miracle, they needed to exaggerate it a little.

He said regretfully, “If I write this letter now, there would be people in the imperial court who would be able to trace when this letter was written.”

Shi Qingluo grasped the main point. “So we just have to make the will look older right?”

Xiao Hanzheng nodded. “That’s right. It’s better if we make it look as if it was written many years ago. This means that the heaven gods have long acknowledged our current emperor.”

Shi Qingluo smiled and said, “I know how to make it old!”

Her grandfather loved collecting antiques, especially ancient paintings.

Once, she excitedly bought an “authentic painting” and gave it to her grandfather.

In the end, her grandfather concluded that it was a fake.

At that time, she felt that it was unlikely.

After all, it looked very old.

Then, her grandfather personally made a painting and let her see for herself as he gave it an antique feel.

Those who didn’t know would have believed that the painting was produced more than a hundred years ago.

They wouldn’t be able to tell that the painting was just created.

At that time, she had seen the entire process, so she knew how to do this.

Xiao Hanzheng was stunned.

He obviously didn’t expect his little wife to know how to do this. “Alright, then I’ll go write the old immortal’s will. Then you will age it in the next few days.

“Doing this means we offer the high-yield seeds and solve the problem for the current emperor. It won’t raise any fear among the public.”

He emphasised, “Most of the credit for the corn belongs to the emperor. Heaven has bestowed this emperor with the responsibility to bless his people.”

Shi Qingluo smiled and said, “I understand. No emperor would want to see anyone with a higher status than him.

“These high-yield seeds are bestowed to the emperor to recognise his efforts to rule Daliang. People in Daliang would trust the emperor’s ruling.

“Let’s just take a little credit from him. This is good enough.”

Xiao Hanzheng smiled lightly. “My wife is really smart.”

Even though his wife had never gone to the imperial court, she was able to see through the situation so clearly.

In contrast, many of the courtiers were unable to see through it.

If others were to obtain a high-yield grain like corn seeds, many would definitely show off and donate the seed under the spotlight.

They would wish that everyone knew that they were the ones who discovered these seeds.

Initially, the emperor would be happy, of course.

But whenever others mentioned the corn seeds and credited it to others which did not seem to have anything to do with the emperor, would the emperor still be happy?

Even if he was fine with it at the beginning, if someone were to constantly provoke him, he might feel more and more uncomfortable.

Moreover, there were still a lot of internal problems within the governance of Daliang.

If they kept advertising these corn seeds under their own name, it was very likely that that prince would use them as a weapon to attack the emperor.

Shi Qingluo asked curiously, “Did you just say that that prince wanted to usurp the throne?”

Otherwise, why would he spread rumours that the emperor wasn’t orthodox.

Xiao Hanzheng nodded. “That’s right. He was the son of the late emperor’s favourite concubine.

“He also had some talent.

“When the late emperor was still alive, he revealed his talents too much and was suppressed by the other princes.

“Moreover, this prince is a little headstrong and self-opinionated.

“He is not suitable to be the emperor.

“Our previous emperor conquered the Daliang kingdom.

“As long as he doesn’t wish for the Daliang kingdom to be defeated so quickly, he will naturally choose a more suitable heir to the throne.”
