After the dynasty was over, Long Chen returned to the west palace courtyard, and Qingyue immediately called him to Di Luoxi's bedroom.
"Princess."
Long Chen saw Emperor Luo Xi sitting upright, obviously he wanted to talk about something serious.
"The Household Department has been in the hands of Jing Tianlie for many years. It is normal for there to be corruption and shortfalls. But if you conduct a thorough investigation this time, it is equivalent to making an enemy of the General's Office. You must be careful."
"Zhang Qian, you must protect Xiao Longlong."
Jing Heng has been in charge of the household department for more than three years. He was previously in charge of Jing Tianlie's department, so he said it had been in Jing Tianlie's hands for many years.
A thorough investigation of the accounts of the Household Department was conducted, not only Jing Heng, but also Jing Tianlie.
"I don't know something."
"explain."
"The Household Department has been in the hands of the Jing family for so many years. Your Majesty should know some things. Why did you choose this matter to thoroughly investigate the Household Department's accounts?"
Long Chen didn't believe that the empress was completely unaware of the Household Department's deficit. She tolerated the Jing family's corruption in the past, so why did she want to conduct a thorough investigation now?
Di Luoxi shook her head slightly and said: "I don't know, maybe...hey...maybe there is nothing we can do. Sifanglou notified the Ministry of Accounts that business will not be good this year and we will have a very difficult time."
Speaking of Sifanglou, the domineering and fierce Di Luoxi actually looked helpless.
"What is Sifanglou?"
Long Chen inherited the host's memory, but it was incomplete and he didn't understand many things in this world.
Di Luoxi leaned sideways on the couch and motioned for Long Chen to sit down.
Long Chen sat next to him. Di Luoxi put her legs on Long Chen and said slowly: "Have you ever heard of the Uncrowned King?"
Long Chen shook his head slightly, he had never heard of it.
"There is a chamber of commerce called the Tianxiahui, and the president of the Tianxiahui is the Uncrowned King."
"The world will have its caravans in all the countries around the world, and even the barbarians overseas. They do business everywhere, and they have huge amounts of gold and silver in their hands. They control the resources of the world."
"Their tentacles are all over the world, and many officials have received benefits from them and are members of the Tianxiahui."
"The Uncrowned King has no territory, but he controls the situation in the world. This Sifanglou is the branch of the Tianxiahui in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty."
"Sifanglou said that business in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty will be difficult this year, which means that the Tianxiahui will not support the Eastern Zhou Dynasty this year, and our tax revenue and business will be very bad."
After Long Chen heard this, he was very shocked.
Isn’t this the Jin-Yuan politics of later generations?
A huge business group, sitting on massive wealth, controls the situation around the world through capital.
Long Chen asked: "Why doesn't the world support the Eastern Zhou Dynasty?"
Di Luoxi said: "Because we captured Linjiang City, the current power of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty has the potential to overwhelm Nanliang."
Long Chen immediately understood and said: "The Tianxiahui wants to maintain the balance of power in the world and make all countries in the world equal in power. In this way, all countries want to get help from the Tianxiahui, and the Tianxiahui can control all the countries in the world."
Di Luoxi nodded with satisfaction and said, "You are very smart and can understand everything at once."
"Our power has become stronger now, and the Tianxiahui will not support us for the time being."
Xuan Yi asked: "Then will they support Nanliang?"
Long Chen said: "Probably not. Among the three kingdoms, Xixia is the weakest now, so they should support Xixia."
Di Luoxi nodded and said, "I think so too."
"Therefore, Nanliang and the barbarians are watching eagerly. Xixia may attack at some time. It will be very troublesome for the treasury to keep up with the expenditure. It is not surprising that the queen mother will conduct a thorough investigation of the household department."
"Xiao Longlong, the eldest sister is in charge this time. You go to help her, and you have to help her well."
Di Luoxi's fingers wandered around Long Chen's body, her eyes filled with meaning.
Long Chen immediately said: "Princess, don't worry, this is the Holy Majesty's will. Once the matter is completed, I will come back immediately. I will definitely remember that I am the Fourth Princess's person."
Di Luoxi nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "You are a teachable boy. If you dare to seek refuge with eldest sister, I will rape you first and then kill you."
Long Chen chuckled and said: "I am a eunuch, princess, don't scare me."
Di Luoxi suddenly turned cold and smiled evilly: "Do you think this princess is scaring you? I have many tricks!"
Damn it!
This princess is so perverted!
"Remember it, little one, don't worry, princess!"
Long Chen felt his anus tighten, and quickly stood up and left the dormitory. Zhang Qian followed Long Chen back to the side hall.
Returning to the side hall, Long Chen kept scolding in his heart: Damn it, when I turn around in the future, I will pay you back twice as much!
Xiang Ning saw that Long Chen was a little unhappy and asked, "Sir, what's wrong?"
Long Chen smiled and said, "It's okay. Prepare some hot water for me. I'll practice my shooting skills and then take a shower."
To be the king of martial arts, you must practice your cultivation.
Picking up the spear, Long Chen started practicing in the yard.
Zhang Qian watched from the side as Long Chen stabbed out one spear after another, and the energy and blood in her body surged.
She was very surprised that Long Chen's cultivation speed was so fast. He started from the early stage of Grand Master and reached the late stage of Grand Master in just a few months.
At this rate, we will be able to break through to the realm of kings by the end of the year, which will be almost the same as Zhang Qian's cultivation level.
Who will protect whom then?
Zhang Qian felt a sense of crisis and started practicing accordingly.
An hour later, both of them were sweating profusely.
Zhang Qian was wearing a white tight-fitting dress, her top soaked with sweat, which reflected the blue bellyband underneath. She would tremble violently with every punch.
Long Chen's whole body felt hot and he wished he could drag Zhang Qian in for a while.
"What are you looking at?"
Zhang Qian noticed that Long Chen was watching.
"You're all sweaty. Go take a shower."
Long Chen turned around and entered the bathroom, followed by Zhang Qian.
In the bathtub together, Long Chen picked up the bath towel and stepped forward to rub Zhang Qian. She didn't refuse, because the princess even let her rub her and she was used to it.
"Last time you gave the princess a body shape, did that technique work?"
Zhang Qian suddenly asked.
"Of course it works, you haven't seen how beautiful the princess is."
Long Chen was very sure that his method was effective.
"Then give me a few strokes, I'm worried...it will sag."
Zhang Qian looked down at herself.
Long Chen obliged and said, "That's necessary. You protect me all day long. It's my duty to shape and maintain your body."
After saying that, Long Chen drew a circle with his left hand, and then drew a circle with his right hand...round and round.
....
Coming out of the bathroom, Zhang Qian felt very hot. She didn't know whether it was because the water was too hot or because of Long Chen's technique.
Long Chen entered the study room, and Xiang Ning took a towel to help Long Chen dry his hair.
At this time, He Ningxin, the female official of the East Palace, entered the study wearing purple clothes.
It can be seen that He Ningxin put on light makeup and specially selected clothes before coming.
"Long Shangshu, the eldest princess invites you."
He Ningxin walked in and saw Long Chen. Although the expression on his face was serious, he could see joy.
"Lord He, please show me the way."
Long Chen stood up and followed He Ningxin to the East Palace, with Zhang Qian following behind.
Entering the East Palace, you can see mountains, rocks, flowers, trees, rare birds and animals everywhere, and the maids inside are obviously more serious.
Every princess has a different style and temperament.
