As the old saying goes, a good son is not the fault of his father. If you have anything to say, go to her father. Why are you staring at me? I am not a soft persimmon. Can you guys pinch me whenever you want?

The other party's shameless death made several colleagues stare in anger.

Although Chu Zhankui looked like a stubborn person, he was actually very anxious. But he couldn't show it openly under the emperor's eyes.

It was not until the king ordered his niece to be released that he caught her outside the palace.

"Chu Chi, come here!"

He pulled the man into his carriage, and seeing the man's money-obsessed look, Old Chu was so angry that his head was about to explode.

"Tell me, who said that to you? Why did you suddenly think of collecting the bad debts from the Ministry of Revenue?"

Chu Daidai, who was originally very happy about finding a job, found it a little difficult to understand why her uncle looked so unhappy.

"What's wrong, uncle? I'm going to earn the family business!"

"Earn a fortune, earn a fortune. You keep talking about earning a fortune all day long! Now that you don't have to worry about food, drink, or expenses, why do you have to earn so much money?"

Minister Chu was so angry at his niece that he had no idea what to do.

"Old Mo is such a stingy person that it's hard to get money from him. How can he be so easy to take advantage of? Do you know who owes the Ministry of Revenue money? How dare you come out and say you want to help him collect the debt?"

"do not know."

The honest child shook his head.

"I don't know what you are doing?"

If it weren't for the fact that this naughty kid is a princess, Old Chu would have to teach her a lesson!

"Go back now and tell the emperor that you have changed your mind. You are not responsible for the Ministry of Revenue's affairs. Do you hear me? Go now!"

"why?"

This is clearly such a good way to get rich, and it's a job completely tailored for me, so why doesn't my uncle let me make money?

If you don't understand, you won't be happy.

Old Chu is someone who understands Xiao Chu well. Seeing how she is determined to hold on to the money, he can only unravel the matter bit by bit and persuade her earnestly.

“In the entire capital, officials above the third rank, whether civil or military, are rare to have never written an IOU to the Ministry of Revenue, not to mention the royal family.

The law does not hold everyone responsible, do you know that?

How do you collect debts in this situation? Even if you can suppress them by force, you still can't settle the debts!

"At the beginning, they all said that they sold everything they had to serve the late emperor, and every household had to borrow the national debt to survive. Even your father, a tough guy, couldn't collect the debt, can you do it? Are you going to knock on someone's door and rob them?"

Minister Chu sighed, patted his niece's shoulder, and lowered his voice a lot.

"Now is the critical moment. Whether your brother Pei Xiaoliu can take the throne of the Eastern Palace depends on this!

Xiao Qi, can you just stay quiet for a while? Wait until the matter between Prince Xuan and General Shen is settled, then you can have the time to earn enough money to support your family!"

Chu Chi nodded and shook his head.

A few days ago, Shen Xiaowu and Pei Xiaoliu both talked to her, saying that they were a bit busy recently and probably couldn't take care of her. In fact, I don't know what they are busy with, but An An said that what they are busy with is very important.

but.

"What does this have to do with me?"

There is a head on top of the little question mark.

"They do their thing, I do mine, and everyone is busy with their own things. This is great! I don't need their help, I can go collect the debt myself.

Don't worry, uncle. I'm very professional. You can call me Chu Xiaocui from now on! Okay!"

In order to show the truthfulness of her words, she nodded her head very solemnly, which made her uncle laugh.

"Huh, you're just in a bad mood, aren't you?"

"No, it's the debt collector!"

"You are really stubborn. Didn't you listen to a word I just said to you? All the civil and military officials above the third rank in the court owe money to the Ministry of Revenue. Didn't you understand?"

"I understood!"

Dai bared his teeth happily, stretched out his snow-white little paws forward, and hooked them several times with a "bujiji" sound.

"Uncle, give me back the money!"

Lao Chu: "…………ヽ(?_?;)ノ"

"You are a second-rank official, don't think I don't know! You must also owe the Ministry of Revenue money, right? Accept the loss and pay your debts, quickly!"

The intelligence and wisdom he had accumulated over the past twenty years were now fully revived and thrown in his uncle's face, choking Old Chu so much that he gritted his teeth.

"I don't have any money! Go ask whoever you want to pay me, I don't care, get out of here!"

Even if he had the money, he couldn't pay it back. It's not like he was really tired of living. The Chu family's situation was not good at first, and it was such a sensitive time. Chu Zhankui would only be the first to show off unless he was kicked in the head by a donkey.

But who can blame him for having this weird princess in his stall? She has a straightforward mind. If she is sure of something, it must be true!

The turtle withdrew his hands and refused to leave even if he was beaten to death.

Chu Daidai tucked his head in his paws and stuck to his uncle. He kept repeating the same thing over and over again: Pay me back!

Chu Zhankui was so annoyed that he did not return to the Ministry of Justice for the whole day. Instead, he went to the offices of all his colleagues.

She strolled from south to north and from day to night, and all the officials from the six ministries of Da Qi knew that Princess Rongchang was chasing the Minister of Justice to collect debts.

As the sun was about to set in the west, Old Chu stretched out his finger, pointed at the large and magnificent mansion on West Street, and instructed softly.

"See? That's Prince Cheng's mansion. You also know that Prince Cheng is the clan leader, the patriarch of your old Pei family.

Not only is he rich, he also owes the most national debt.

If you can get the debt back from him, I will pay it back right away, okay?"

This is absolutely true. As long as Prince Cheng is the first to be beaten, Old Chu will certainly be willing to help his naughty child make money.

"Really?"

Chu Daidai's eyes lit up.

He had followed his uncle for a whole day, but he didn't get a penny back. He just followed him around the capital. If it were someone else, Master Chu would have let them know what strength and means were.

But my uncle is not someone else!

An An always said that her uncle was very kind to us and that he loved children very much. So she didn't know what to do.

But now that the uncle had given a clear way out, Dai, who had been depressed for a while, immediately came back to life and was full of life.

"Then just wait, I'll go collect the debt now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the debt collector got off the carriage and kicked open the door of Prince Cheng's mansion without any hesitation.

Old Chu sat upright in the carriage, stroking his beard and smiling with satisfaction, hiding his achievements and fame.
