Isn’t it good for the five of us to be together?

Maybe he was afraid that something would happen to me again, so Qin Che pulled me to his side.

I knew the appropriateness of the occasion, so I followed him obediently. I just wondered why I should be left behind in such an occasion.

I couldn't bear it, couldn't think, so I could only stare wide-eyed.

We returned to the palace first, and then to the familiar Qinzheng Hall, where we should have to deal with business. I professionally took out a pen and paper next to me, preparing to record the "big things" they were going to say next.

Suddenly everything was quiet, and everyone's eyes...were on me again.

I:?

Not far away, the official who took out a pen and paper just like me looked at me with a complicated expression.

Ling Hengyuan: "You don't have to do this today."

me?"

The eldest princess covered her mouth and laughed again, but she gave me some face and turned around to smile secretly.

I silently put away the paper and pen, and finally understood the expression on the official's face. It turned out that he thought I was here to grab his job today.

I winked at Qin Che: What happened today?

Qin Che: Shouldn’t I ask you?

Me: No one told me.

Qin Che: Your Majesty didn’t tell you when you entered the palace yesterday?

I:?

I thought about it for a long time, and I did go to the palace yesterday. Because Ling Hengyuan was a little busy, he just gave me a booklet and asked me to go back and read it myself. I didn't look at it carefully, thinking it was just a simple process. After a few glances, I fell asleep...

I'm embarrassed. Could it be that the booklet yesterday was a newly revised process?

Ling Hengyuan looked like he was going to be careful if he made another mistake, and I immediately put all my energy into it.

Chi Wanshen was watching our actions quietly from the side, and then said with a smile: "It's too early now, I guess it's because Mr. Chen was busy dealing with affairs yesterday and was not in good spirits."

I nodded quickly, this is simply a good person who knows how to be cloudy.

Ling Hengyuan snorted coldly: "I picked up the sesame seeds and lost the watermelons. I lost my chain at the critical moment."

I smiled stupidly and did not refute: "I will obey your Majesty's teachings."

Finally coming to the topic, the two parties started from the perspective of peaceful development and discussed some things that I didn’t understand about the border issue between the two countries. They babbled a lot. I nodded beside them. I thought when I should think. It was better than the mascot. Also a mascot.

When it comes to farm machinery, my eyes light up and my ears prick up.

Chi Wanshen: "I wonder if His Majesty Nanyang would like to exchange Beiyin for something."

Ling Hengyuan: "What?"

Chi Wanshen: "Farming machines in Nanyang and... markets in Beiyin are open."

After listening to it for a while, I realized that although there was a long history of merchant exchanges between Beiyin and Nanyang, Beiyin did not pay much attention to commerce. Moreover, most markets in Beiyin were divided into South City and North City. To put it simply, Beiyin Merchant’s Land and Nanyang Merchant’s Land.

The merchant policies of the two cities are different. Nanyang merchants in Beiyin are subject to a lot of suppression, so in fact, Nanyang people rarely go to Beiyin to open shops, because they don't want to be the big enemy.

Unfortunately, Ling Hengyuan was one of the big grievances. Looking at the locations of his shops at that time, there were not many shops in Beiyin.

If the market is liberalized, it will be easier to make money.

I took a deep look at Chi Wanshen. Could it be that this person had already known that Ling Hengyuan had opened many shops in Beiyin, so he proposed this condition.

I was just about to watch Ling Hengyuan's show, but the next second, Chi Wanshen asked, "What do you think, Mr. Chen?"

I:"?"

Chi Wanshen: "After all, Mr. Chen made this farming machine, so it must depend on what you think."

As soon as I finished speaking, everyone looked at me.

I bowed my head and wiped my sweat: "In my humble position... How can I make such a big decision in my humble position?"

After hearing this, the eldest princess said: "Don't be coy, just say it, it won't punish you."

That's not your punishment.

I said: "Although the farming machine was made by humble ministers, humble ministers have already dedicated it to His Majesty. This is a thing from Nanyang. How can it be said to belong to humble ministers alone?"

Please give me a round of applause for my speech.

Chi Wanshen was obviously stunned.

Ling Hengyuan seemed to be very satisfied with what I said, and the smile on his face became even bigger.

Ling Hengyuan: "It's okay, just tell me what you think."

He half-smiled.

I:"……"

It would be a bit unethical to test me at this time!

Options appear:

"Agree to exchange"

"Do not agree to exchange"

I was confused, why should I discuss such a big matter?

I chose the second one.

I said: "This matter needs to be discussed in detail between the two countries. Such a major matter cannot be underestimated."

Seeing Ling Hengyuan's expression change, I breathed a sigh of relief, I made the right choice.

It seems that Ling Hengyuan has the same idea as me. To put it bluntly, the open market allows you to open a store every day and every moment. But if I, as a Beiyin native, were asked to choose whether to buy things in the South City or the North City, it would definitely be the North City. As the saying goes, the wealth does not flow to outsiders. , as long as the North City and the South City still exist, there will certainly be no shortage of this bias. Beiyin's own agriculture is better than that of Nanyang. If there is a farming machine to support it, wouldn't it be the icing on the cake and take off from the same spot?

Thinking about it this way, I found that I am still a little clever.

Chi Wan looked at me with a deep smile in her eyes.

I had a creepy feeling that I was being watched.

When I opened the panel and saw the word "gentle", I suddenly doubted its authenticity. Is this target so... easy to get along with? Why does it feel weird?

After that, no one found fault with me. I was like the mascot next to me. When I was called, I moved my mouth. When I was not called, I acted as a decoration.

The eldest princess obviously also knows something about government affairs, and she can also tell a lot about the conversation during the period. Obviously Ling Hengyuan admired her quite a lot.

But my point is - it seems that it was not said before that Princess Beiyin would come. I compiled the list and I remember it clearly.

I narrowed my eyes slightly, could there be some other purpose for this trip?

I don't know what the purpose is, but I feel a little chilly right now.

Especially Qin Che's wanton look in his eyes couldn't be ignored at all.

No one told me that I need to sit at the bottom of Ling Hengyuan. This position is not... not...

Even the Prime Minister was sitting behind me and was looking at me with confusion.

I repeatedly asked if the chamberlain had arranged the wrong position for me. The palace maid checked again and again, and she still said the same thing: "Sir, it's true. This position was ordered by the Holy One himself, and it cannot be wrong."

I:"……"

Ling Hengyuan hadn't appeared yet, nor was the eldest princess of Beiyin, but Chi Wanshen was.

Everyone is acting weird today, but I am the only outsider. But now I feel like this is a game set up for me. There is always a pit waiting for me.

Chi Wan deeply felt my gaze, smiled at me, raised the cup with both hands, and drank the tea in one gulp.

As for me, who is in a high position and unable to get off, I raised my glass to express my wish to drink together.

This Chi Wanshen is definitely not as gentle as he appears! Illusion! It's definitely an illusion!

If Ling Hengyuan doesn't come again, I will cause trouble at his banquet and arrange for me to be here. I feel that if an assassin attacks, I will be no different from a living target.
