Never divorce, never stop getting rich

Chapter 140 Everyone Shows Their Magical Powers

"It's just a routine question. Your Majesty, there's no need to be so anxious." The eldest princess took a sip of her teacup, seeming to be in a particularly good mood. If she could get rid of Qian Qiansui and also see the empress with her lost arm, all her efforts would be worthwhile.

"But...but why did my aunt take my people away as well!" Princess Yongle couldn't help it and said unhappily.

"Are your people there?" The Grand Princess feigned surprise and said, "This is a case under investigation at the government office. There may be some misunderstanding. I'll send someone to investigate later."

"You are a girl, a princess at that. Don't go out and show off every day. It's not decent. Prepare yourself well in the palace. If Crown Prince Ito has made up his mind, you should prepare to get married!" The eldest prince Fu Lilu said impatiently, without a trace of brotherly affection, as if the princess was just an item to be appraised.

"It's not your turn to make arrangements for my daughter yet." The empress threw the paperweight on the table at the eldest prince's feet and said with a grim expression.

The eldest prince was so frightened that he stood up and dodged, then reluctantly bowed and said, "It was my son who overstepped his bounds."

"Okay, it's just a few people being locked up. It's such a small matter, and Your Majesty is really anxious..." The eldest princess covered her mouth and laughed crisply.

"Is it a small matter? She even took away the people from my fiefdom. The Grand Princess is so arrogant!"

Several people in the hall turned around and saw the emperor's uncle, whom they hadn't seen for many years, walking in wearing the royal court robes that he hadn't worn for who knows how long.

This is Taizong's younger uncle and the late emperor's great-uncle. Although they are of the same age, this one is the oldest.

Mr. Cao walked in, lifting his robe, staring at the Grand Princess and saying directly, "Release them all."

"This doesn't seem to be your fiefdom, uncle. I don't even understand the affairs of your branch of your family, so why bother getting involved in the affairs of our capital." The eldest princess was not polite either. She was the elder sister of the late emperor and the only surviving daughter of Taizong. Over the years, the late emperor had always supported her behind the scenes. She didn't believe that a vassal king could do anything to her.

"You said the King of Hengzhou died in the capital, and you closed the shop to investigate. But during this time, you were closing shops and arresting people in other states. You even went after the people transporting the goods. Where are the goods from Conscience Paper now? You don't need me to tell you."

Mr. Cao originally didn't want to get involved in the mess in the capital, but the eldest princess touched his reverse scale. Touching Liangxin Paper Industry is equivalent to touching Panshi Academy, and touching Panshi Academy is equivalent to touching these old guys. He has been silent for so many years, but it doesn't mean that he is a coward.

"Your Majesty!" The chief eunuch rushed in and said in a panic, "Lord Kong is standing outside the palace gate with a number of civil servants, requesting an audience with Your Majesty."

The empress was startled at first, then immediately responded, "Hurry up and announce it!"

This time it was the Grand Princess's turn to look unhappy. Old man Kong was quite popular among the literati. When Panshi Academy had an accident before, he came out to save the situation and organized a big competition, which made Panshi Academy stand out.

Now, he is just a papermaker, but he has caused a commotion among the poor students.

"Paper and printing represent the cost of books. Many children from poor families cannot make progress because they are short of money. The books in the Conscience Bookstore are the cheapest and most clearly printed in Tang Country, and they are the only place where children from poor families can afford to buy books."

Mr. Cao stood opposite the Grand Princess and said, "By doing this, you are blocking their path to heaven. They will definitely not compromise."

"How dare some poor fellows who are not presentable rebel instead of returning to their hometown to work as peasants!" The eldest princess shared the same idea as the late emperor. She felt that Taizong favored ordinary people too much and even restricted the aristocratic families and hurt their interests. If this went on for a long time, the aristocratic families would probably have other ideas, which would be detrimental to the stability of the court.

But what are the people? What does the death of a few have to do with the death of hundreds or thousands? They are just stepping stones for Tang Country. Anyway, these people at the bottom can give birth. If they die, it doesn’t matter much if more people give birth. The country’s tax revenue depends on wealthy businessmen and wealthy families.

When the empress heard these familiar words, she avoided them in disgust.

Mr. Cao looked deeply at the Grand Princess and said, "You will regret this."

In Panshi Academy, when the virtual teacher rushed to the academy as soon as he learned about the accident in the paper industry, he had already returned to the workshop to work. He never made excuses to slack off, which made the teachers in Panshi Academy admire him and were greatly encouraged.

"How about a group of people come and kill them all to make fertilizer for the flowers." Ah Wu has recently been obsessed with growing some strange flowers and plants, but has been troubled by the lack of fertilizer, so he has long wanted to cultivate a batch of his own.

"No, I'll go back to Sikong's house..." After so many people were caught, Sikong Taxing felt that he might not be able to steal all the people by himself. If he called on his family, there should still be hope of achieving his goal.

But, he seems to be cheating on me recently.

"I've already asked...the group of brothers I used to lead...to set up camp nearby. If anyone comes again, no one will be able to escape." Han Zhi also regretted it. Last time, his subordinates who had become bandits said they wanted to be enrolled in the academy, but he didn't agree for fear of causing trouble. Otherwise, that group of people would never have the chance to enter the academy this time.

"The people around me have also gone to look for their old friends. It is said that they have gone astray and joined the Moon Worship Cult..." Dumbledore felt unhappy when he brought up this topic. He had left behind his past and became the dean, but these people could not change their beliefs so quickly.

Qian Qiansui exclaimed, "Wow, these people are really jumping from one fire pit into another. If she were to sell health products, she would definitely sell them to them. They are definitely a regular customer base."

"Strange, where did Mao Dong go?" Qian Qiansui stood up and looked around. Mao Dong had not slept well for several days because he was in charge of the paper industry. They did not dare to let him go out, for fear that he would be put in a sack if he went out.

"He should find a place to calm down. It's not his fault this time." Su Xin put the snacks on the table. She liked the academy and wanted to stay here for the rest of her life, but her ability was limited, so she could only encourage everyone with food.

Qian Qiansui looked serious, took a deep breath, looked at the location of the palace and said: "I am going to make a decision that goes against our ancestors."

Everyone was confused, but they didn't know that Qian Qiansui had already opened the entire skill tree.

[System, add all the points I've accumulated during this period to infrastructure and weapons, including the surrounding skill lines. I don't believe that someone like me, with an encyclopedia, can't kill a scheming princess!]

[Received, host, please replenish skill points as soon as possible. ]

Qian Qiansui never thought about clicking on the technology tree because she felt that she was just opening an academy, and at most doing some small business to make some money to supplement the academy, and then cooperate with the mission to complete it.

We should neither be reckless nor work too hard. From the experience she gained in her previous life, the harder you work, the more debt you will get into. She is really afraid.

However, she still forgot one thing. Just because you think your business is small doesn't mean no one will care about it. Only with sufficient strength can you keep what you have.

Well then... let's just stop hiding our strength and go for the big one.

"Have the students prepare. From now on, there will be a seven-day assessment. One assessment every seven days, and another after thirty days. The score cannot be lower than 90, otherwise you will have to retake the exam!"

"Ah?" No one could understand what this had to do with the exam.

Qian Qiansui would never tell them that only if most people passed the test would she have more skill points, and the more tests she took, the richer she would be!
