After returning from rebirth, the eldest sister of Hou family destroyed her household registration b
Chapter 220 Why don’t you marry me?
"Yes." Xiao Jinzhi took Chu Huanyan's hand, "I just think that Yan Yan may be more suitable to take charge of this matter than me."
Careful and conscientious, well-organized, able to put himself in the people's shoes, and prepared from the beginning.
After thinking carefully, I am afraid that most of the courtiers may not think as clearly as the person in front of me.
Chu Huanyan smiled, "No matter how suitable I am, I am afraid that in the eyes of others, I will not be responsible for this matter."
Not for anything else, just because she is a woman. In the eyes of many people, this alone is enough to make it difficult for her to take on big positions.
It's like, no matter how useless Chu Ziyuan is, in the eyes of others, he is the one who is qualified to inherit the title of Marquis, and his sister, no matter how good she is, is not qualified.
The smile on Chu Huanyan's face was a bit mocking.
Xiao Jinzhi looked at her and clearly understood what she was thinking, "What about women? What hinders women is never their ability, but the world."
"Do you really think so?" Chu Huanyan looked at Xiao Jinzhi.
"Yes." Xiao Jinzhi nodded.
Chu Huanyan raised her eyebrows playfully, followed Xiao Jinzhi's example, propped up her chin and said, "In this case, why not... you get married later."
Xiao Jin was stunned, "Bringing in a wife?"
"Yes." Chu Huanyan blinked, and the narrowing between her eyebrows became more intense, "Of course it is impossible for me to hand over the Marquis Mansion to Chu Ziyuan, and I also want to try to inherit the title as a woman, so why not His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is coming to the Marquis Mansion as a bride?"
Chu Huanyan spoke leisurely, but deep down she was just joking. If it were an ordinary man entering the Marquis' Mansion, it might still be possible, but Xiao Jinzhi is the prince, how could he possibly...
"It's not impossible." Xiao Jinzhi thought about it and spoke seriously.
Now it was Chu Huanyan's turn to be stunned. She looked at Xiao Jinzhi carefully. She didn't see the joke in his expression, so she couldn't help but say, "You can't be serious, are you?"
"Why can't you be serious?" Xiao Jinzhi asked Chu Huanyan, "Does Yanyan not want me to live in the Hou Mansion?"
He prefers the Marquis Mansion to the Prince's Mansion. After all, it is the home of the person in front of him, and the place where the person in front of him is... will also be his home.
Chu Huanyan choked, "Of course it's not that I don't want to, but..."
It's just that Xiao Jinzhi is the prince after all. Even if he is not Xiao Emperor's biological son, he is still the blood of the former emperor. Strictly speaking, he is even more qualified to sit on the throne than Xiao Emperor.
According to the previous life, Xiao Jinzhi would indeed ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor in the end. How could he possibly enter the Prince's Mansion under such circumstances.
Unless... the situation in this life has changed.
"Yan Yan, you don't have to think so much. No one can predict what will happen in the future. As for the throne, it would be a lie to say that I have never thought about it. But now, for me, compared to the throne, it is already There are things that are more important and need to be cherished." Xiao Jinzhi looked at Chu Huanyan intently, with a pair of peach blossom eyes filled with indescribable love.
Rather than being the aloof emperor, what he wants more than to be is the husband of the person in front of him, and to stay with her until old age.
Some people may think that this idea is very futile, giving up everything for a woman, but he knows deep down that what he wants to choose is actually a life that seems happier.
Chu Huanyan stared into the eyes of the person in front of her. Since her rebirth, she had often secretly warned herself not to make the same mistakes again and give up her goals and life for the so-called love.
After falling in love with Xiao Jin, she actually didn't think clearly about whether the life in the harem was what she wanted if Xiao Jinzhi ascended the throne one day. But what she can be sure of is that she has no intention of giving up her goals and pursuits for Xiao Jinzhi.
But Xiao Jinzhi...
Chu Huanyan took a slow breath and spoke seriously to Xiao Jinzhi: "Xiao Jinzhi, I was really just joking with you just now. Whether you want to sit on the throne or not, I will support you, but only The only thing is, if you really want to give up, I don’t want that reason to be just because of me. I...can’t afford it.”
Things in this world are unpredictable, especially love. She likes Xiao Jinzhi and is willing to make a lasting promise with him, but this is only because the love at this moment supports her to do so.
But if love wears away one day, what you give up in the name of love now may not become a sharp sword that stabs the relationship between the two in the future.
And the sentence "I am willing to do it for you" has become "I am willing to do it for you"!
When their eyes met, Xiao Jinzhi and Chu Huanyan were speechless for a moment.
After a long time, Xiao Jinzhi chuckled softly and said, "Okay, I understand. Just treat what I just said as a joke. You don't have to feel pressured. We were just chatting casually. But Yan Yan, you have to remember that even if If I really give up something in the future, it won't be for you, but to make myself happier."
However, his happiness comes from the people in front of him.
Now that we have accepted the mission and issued a military order, we naturally cannot delay it any longer.
After Xiao Jinzhi tentatively formulated a plan, he quickly implemented it.
The first thing is to stabilize the price of rice. Several rice shops that had tried their best to buy grain before saw their prices increase five times, and they obviously wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune.
Although the people are dissatisfied, there is a shortage of food in the imperial city now, and they just dare to be angry and dare not speak out. Even if the food is high-priced, if they can buy some, they are calling Amitabha in their hearts.
The next day, Chu Huanyan arrived at Mipu and met shopkeeper Wang again.
"Take out half of the grain stored in the warehouse and start selling it. There is no limit on the number of buyers, but each person can only buy two kilograms per day." Chu Huanyan ordered shopkeeper Wang.
If there is a limit on the number of buyers, it will inevitably cause more competition among everyone, but if there is no limit, there is no guarantee that someone will hoard too much at once.
"Yes." Shopkeeper Wang nodded and responded, "Miss, are you maintaining the current price?"
"No." Chu Huanyan shook her head, "The price needs to change."
Shopkeeper Wang knew it well and was right. Now the price of rice outside has been increased to five times its original price, but they are still selling at twice the price, which is a bit of a loss.
"Starting from tomorrow, the price will be changed back to the original price." Chu Huanyan said.
"What?" Shopkeeper Wang was stunned for a moment, "Miss, what you mean is..."
"Return to the price before the snow disaster." Chu Huanyan took over Shopkeeper Wang's words and spoke.
"Miss, the current price of rice in the imperial city..."
"I didn't start hoarding that food just to make a fortune. Now the ridiculous price of rice in the imperial city should be brought down."
Shopkeeper Wang felt hot, it seemed that he had misunderstood the young lady! but……
"Miss, I'm a little worried. Although each person can only buy two kilograms, if there are too many people, I'm afraid many people will take advantage of the troubled waters."
