After the father of the subjugated country secretly read my heart, he became angry.

Within a few days, there was news from Chu State that the romance novel "She Came Back Five Years Later" was sold out in Chu State calligraphy and painting shops.

Princess Yunwu over there placed a big order for five thousand copies of the complete works, saying that she would not only read them herself, but also give them away.

Not only that, the Ji sisters got the news and opened a storybook shop first, waiting to get the first batch of subsequent sales rights.

"Your Majesty, I didn't expect that the sales volume of our Jingguo storybook would be even better in Chuguo." Jiang Li, the Hubu, has been walking with wind and talking with a smile these days. It can be seen that the Hubu is involved and has earned a lot of money. Quite a few.

"Many calligraphy and painting shop owners in Chu State have ordered the second volume and asked us to print the first volume. The deposit has been paid."

"Based on visual inspection of the sales this time, Chu State accounts for the majority! Chu State is rich, so don't deceive me." Jiang Li concluded.

Xiao Yunzhou couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth as he looked at the book sales report he handed over.

I still have to continue to develop in a wretched manner, Jingguo.

After Jiang Li reported the report, he proposed his next idea, "Our book of words is now printed. We can write popular phrases in Jingguo and Chuguo on the cover of the book, and then sell it to other neighboring countries and open it. More markets.”

Since the Jingguo Special Elegant Gathering, the Ministry of Household Affairs has had many ideas on how to increase income, just as it has opened up the two channels of Ren and Du.

Jiang Li is busy and fulfilled every day, but he still has higher requirements for the current situation. "Your Majesty, I feel that the most urgent task now is to increase men's consumption."

"The latest survey by the Ministry of Household Affairs shows that the consumption of men in Jing and Chu has stagnated to a certain extent."

Xiao Yunzhou thought it was just right, "Ahem, Jiang Aiqing, I just thought of this question."

"After the No. 1 Scholar left that day, I also thought that if women are strong, men should also be strong. Why can't I write a book about self-improvement for men?"

"As soon as I said it, the Hanlin Academy helped write hundreds of chapters."

Xiao Yunzhou felt that his acting skills were already at the level of a movie king, so he picked it up at his fingertips, "You can print and sell this book "The First Immortal King" co-written by eighteen Jinshi of the Hanlin Academy."

"!!"

Jiang Li was greatly impressed. He took the scroll with both hands and stuffed it into his sleeves reverently, "I must try my best to do it!"

He quickly left the palace and sat in the sedan chair.

The bearer's legs were steady and he arrived at the household department in a short time.

"Master, we're here."

"Jiang Shangshu, here we are."

"Huh? Master?"

"Shang Shu, are you still awake!?"

The bearer gradually raised his voice. After waiting for half a cup of tea, he finally couldn't help but lift the curtain of the sedan chair. He saw that Shangshu Jiang Li was not unconscious or asleep. Instead, he was holding this thin manuscript and reading it with concentration.

Even if the sedan curtain is raised, his reading cannot be interrupted.

"Don't worry, wait until I finish reading this chapter."

"Hey, wait a minute until I get over this crisis."

"Hey, it's amazing, it's amazing! It's wonderful!"

"Wait, let me read another chapter!"

The bearer was stunned.

Not long after turning to the last page, Jiang Shangshu woke up as if from a dream, but as soon as he woke up, he almost lost his composure by stamping his feet and beating his chest.

"Why is it gone?"

"Why did you write it right at the critical moment of foundation building?"

Every doorway is filled with Jiang Shangshu's wailing.

"When will the next volume be released?"

"This chapter ends here, is it intentional? Eighteenth Jinshi of the Hanlin Academy!"

Jiang Li rushed out of the sedan on the spot, his eyes straight.

"Come here, go to the Hanlin Academy to urge me to write! If the Jinshi don't write, they won't be allowed to rest!"

"You, you, you, give me Jun a copy and send it to the four major bookstores for printing, quickly!"

"This is the first episode, it's bound to be a hit, it's bound to be a hit!"

"The King of Heaven is here, I can't stop!"

In the Royal Palace of Zhou Ai Kingdom, the Emperor Zhou Ling, King of Chu, was receiving the King of Chu who had just arrived here after more than 30 days of spring outing.

"Brother Chu, do you believe that there are experts in Jingguo? Do you really want to establish long-term diplomatic relations with Jingguo?"

Zhou Ai State is located in the northeast of Jing State, intersecting with the barren mountains.

Zhou Ai's country usually did not have close contact with Jing's country. On the contrary, Chu, which was not bordering on the other side, often had copper, iron ore, and rice grain exchanges.

King Zhou Ling looked at King Chu, who was already over sixty years old and had gray hair and beard, and felt a little contempt in his heart.

The King of Chu was old. Not only did he want to pass his throne to the princess, he also wanted to have a relationship with Jing Guo.

King Zhou Ling sighed secretly, "We have known each other for many years. Brother Chu, I would like to remind you that Jingguo cannot protect itself."

King Chu narrowed his eyes, "But what's happening around? Sheng Guo? Yuan Mu?"

King Zhou Ling's eyes were shocked, then he smiled and said, "I can't hide this from you, an old fox."

"The King of Yuan once inquired about the affairs of the Jingguo court from Zhou Ai many times, and even inquired about Xiao Yunzhou's harem." King Zhou Ling rubbed his wine glass.

The King of Chu was stunned, "Does King Yuan want to attack Jingguo?"

"I don't know what King Yuan is thinking," King Zhou Ling shook his head, but quickly put down the wine glass, causing the wooden table to shake. He narrowed his eyes and lowered his voice.

"But Brother Chu, I have asked spies to investigate many times. What do you think I found?" King Zhou Ling's eyes flickered.

"The former imperial concubine of Jingguo, a woman from Xiaoyunzhou, seems to have visited my country of Zhou Ai."

"And it happened to be a heavy rain at that time, so she stayed at a villager's house. Guess what, I discovered that traces of Prince Yuan seemed to appear there during that time."

"What?" King Chu was shocked.

He had never heard of this.

But does Xiao Yunzhou know about this?

There are experts in Jingguo who can predict even his own death, let alone the things around Xiao Yunzhou?

After the King of Chu was slightly shocked, he quickly regained his composure.

His calmness surprised King Zhou Ling, "Brother Chu, if you know this, do you still want to be on good terms with Jing Guo?"

"Did you know that the small farmhouse was bought by someone and guarded by experts?"

King Chu took a deep breath. King Yuan actually fell in love with Concubine Jing Guo. This girl was also a little sick.

King Chu shook his head, "Is it possible that King Yuan still wants to seize Xiao Yunzhou's imperial concubine?"

King Zhou Ling narrowed his eyes and said in a calm tone, "Brother Chu doesn't know something. Just last year, this imperial concubine was suddenly demoted to a concubine and banned from the palace."

The king of Chu was shocked.

King Zhou Ling closed his eyes, "Yuanmu Kingdom is far away from Chu Kingdom. Brother Chu may not know it, but our Zhou Ai Kingdom and Yuan Mu Kingdom are separated by mountains and rivers, and there are caravans coming and going from time to time."

"I heard that recently, the caravans over there often see sergeants practicing."

"!!"

King Chu stood up instantly.

King Yuan is preparing to attack Jingguo?

Just for a woman?

King Chu's eyebrows trembled. If so, could Jingguo survive?

He had a good relationship with Jing Guo, firstly because of the respect of the master, and secondly because he believed that Jingguo was now developing vigorously and could make their Chu land stronger together.

Chu will not accompany him to Jingguo's death!

"So Brother Chu," King Zhou Ling leaned forward, "to be honest, since you have come to my country of Zhou Ai, I want to hear something from what you, the emperor of the country, have seen -"

"Jing, is it really worth getting to know each other?"

King Zhou Ling asked with emphasis on every word.

And his eyes couldn't help but turn to a secret letter on the desk.

It is from Yuanmu country.

King Yuan wanted to borrow a road from his country Zhou Ai, saying that he wanted to go to the barren mountains to train his troops for a long distance!

The reward is one million taels of gold!

On the map, further forward from the barren mountain area is the land of Jingguo!

"Do you think Yuan Muqiang or Jing Qiang?"

King Chu was speechless for a moment, but he quickly took a deep breath and said, "Will you believe what I say?"

"Brother Zhou, why don't you join me on a private visit incognito, go to the scenic spot, and see it with your own eyes."

"?"

"!"

King Zhou Ling was stunned.
