Chapter 433: The prince's wife must not be bullied! 17
The prince’s wife must not be bullied! (17)
"Princess, you're welcome, this is Li's responsibility!" Li Shuzheng smiled and sat back down in his seat.
Unexpectedly, before his butt touched the chair, he heard Chu Tianjiao ask in an innocent tone, "As far as I know, it rained a lot in Northwest County this year, and the East County area had a bumper harvest, but why did the taxes collected turn out to be so bad?"
That’s a 50% reduction from last year?!”
"The princess doesn't know something!" Li Shuzheng stood up hurriedly. No matter what, she was a princess, so he didn't dare to be too presumptuous. "Although there was a bumper harvest in the east county, there was a severe drought in the west county, and even the seeds were not produced.
When I come back, I will transfer the grain and grass from the East County to the West County to help the victims according to the tax regulations you formulated, so the tax will be greatly reduced this year!"
The false accounts have been prepared and everyone has agreed on the same story. He doesn't believe it. What can this little girl do?
"So that's it!" Chu Tianjiao nodded innocently, "Master Li will reward you with a hundred taels of gold for being an official and caring for the people!"
"Thank you, Princess!" Li Shuzheng smiled in his heart. After swallowing the taxes and receiving some silver, this little girl was not as smart as the rumors. She was clearly a fool.
"In the future, you will have to guard your honors to help me manage the affairs of Northwest County. This reward is also worthy!" Chu Tianjiao said, he had already left the chair, and walked to Li Shuzheng personally holding a bottle of wine, "Come, my concubine pays homage.
One drink for adults!”
"I don't dare!" Li Shuzheng said he didn't dare, but his hand had already stretched out the cup.
Chu Tianjiao raised a sneer on his lips, tilted his fingers and poured the wine in the jug in his hand towards his chest.
Li Shuzheng never thought that she would do this deliberately. In shock, he instinctively dodged to the side, but Chu Tianjiao deliberately took a step behind him, then let out an exaggerated ouch, and then deliberately sat on the ground, hugging his feet.
Moaning, "My feet!"
"Princess!" Long Xiang and Lan Nuo rushed towards her almost at the same time, and worriedly helped her up from the ground, "Your feet?!"
"Well, Li Shuzheng!" Chu Tianjiao's face was still as gentle as before, and his face seemed as cold as a layer of frost. "I personally poured you wine, but you not only refused to accept it, but also deliberately stepped on my feet.
, what crime should be committed!"
"You..." Li Shuzheng almost burst out of anger, thinking that it was you who fell on me on purpose and pretended to fall to the ground. After all, he had been immersed in official circles for many years. He had already guessed that the other party was deliberately making things difficult, and he was busy
He suppressed the anger in his heart and said with a smile, "I am scared, I don't want to kick the princess by mistake, please forgive me!"
