After hearing what Xiao Jingyi said, Qin Renshan knew that Xiao Jingyi had said it for him on purpose. Only then did he realize that he had almost done something bad because of his good intentions and his unwillingness to do so.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. From now on, no matter who asks me to join the Chamber of Commerce, I won't agree."

"Father-in-law should know that you are my father-in-law. Anyone who wants to give you a hard time is trying to embarrass me and slap the royal family in the face.

From now on, if anyone comes to your house with bad intentions, just let the servant beat them out. Don't be afraid of offending anyone. I will take care of the consequences.

As for my second uncle, even though he has General Pei to protect him, I will also protect him.

Even if my fourth uncle passes the imperial examination and becomes an official in the future, as long as they are loyal to the emperor, the Qin family will not bully others, and the emperor will make the decision for them.

The Qin family is now thriving. If you all hold the idea of ​​showing mercy to others no matter who they are or what they are here for, you will only hinder your uncle and his brothers."

It won't hold him back, but some people will talk behind his back, thinking that he is not close to the Yue family.

Some people are short-sighted and might end up like President Qi today.

"I know. I won't do it again."

Only then did Qin Renshan face up to some of his and his family's actions. It was true that the Qin family was different now and could no longer act the same as before.

They don’t want to bully others by taking advantage of their power, but they must not let others think that their family is easy to bully, just like President Qi today.

As for not taking advantage of one's power to bully others, Xiao Jingyi did not specifically mention it, as his father-in-law's family were all honest people.

The smartest ones are my second and fourth uncles, but they would never do anything to bully others.

After Xiao Jingyi returned home from Qin's house, he called Zhu Qing.

"How's the investigation going?"

“Your Highness, President Qi has been the only one in power in the Chamber of Commerce in the past few years. His daughter is the concubine of the youngest son of the previous minister. He has always relied on the people behind him, and others dare not speak out.

In addition, originally this term of imperial merchant was supposed to be the Qi family's turn, but because the Hou family had a close relationship with the Qin family and had done many good things, the emperor allowed the Hou family to continue for another term.

When President Qi came to the Qin family, I asked, but no one in the Chamber of Commerce knew about it.

besides……"

Zhu Qing reported the information he had obtained to Xiao Jingyi.

Xiao Jingyi took the Chamber of Commerce matters that Zhu Qing had sorted out and went to see the emperor again.

He doesn't know how to do anything else except looking for the emperor when he has something to ask.

"Your Majesty, if I hadn't happened to see him today, I wouldn't have known how rampant President Qi was.

Look at how much they embezzle every year?

The annual harvest of my palace is not enough to cover their corruption.

They want to take over the power, why?

When the emperor saw that the money embezzled by the people from the Chamber of Commerce was almost equal to the annual income of the national treasury, his eyes turned red.

On the same day, people were hired to investigate the Chamber of Commerce. When the evidence was verified, the faction of President Qi was directly confiscated and all their property was filled into the national treasury.

The Chamber of Commerce cannot exist. If it doesn't exist, there will be no one to manage it, so the president is replaced every three years. Now Hou Dansheng, from the imperial merchant Hou family, serves as the president.

The Qin family’s royal merchants are different from those people and do not need to join the Chamber of Commerce.

The emperor has issued an edict, who dares to say anything else?

Besides, who would dare to confiscate their property?

As the New Year is approaching, the national treasury finally has some money deposited into it.

When the emperor saw Xiao Jingyi again, he smiled kindly, "Royal brother, after all, the princess's family is related to the royal family. If anyone dares to be blind, especially rich, in the future, you must tell me and I will take care of it!"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. If anything goes wrong, I will definitely ask you for support."

The weather was clear on August 16th, and magpies chirped non-stop in front of the Qin family's door early in the morning.

It was like a magpie knew that today was the day Qin Erlu and Bae Lexuan were getting married.

The Qin family's threshold is about to be trampled down by others today.

After what happened yesterday, the Chamber of Commerce's former president Qi had his property confiscated, which was enough to show that the Qin family's threshold was even higher.

Many families with daughters are eyeing Qin Sixi, the glittering and wealthy son-in-law.

But Qin Sixi said that he would not consider getting married for the time being, at least after he was twenty years old, and now he would start a career first.

After these words were spoken, those people still did not give up the idea.

If you don't want to get married, you can settle it first and then get married when he is 20 years old.

Those families choose candidates from daughters who are younger, for example, those who are just getting married, or those who are about to reach the age of marriage, as long as Qin Sixi likes them.

On that day, countless families came secretly to see the bride and groom under the pretext of attending a wedding.

Those girls were all dressed up beautifully. When they met each other, they looked at each other cross-eyed and wanted to get close to Qin Sixi.

But Qin Sixi was in the front yard and never came to the back yard, so the girls couldn't see him at all.

You can't see it, everyone is the same, there is no intrigue, and everything is peaceful.

But there was one person who insisted that she might be the chosen one and was secretly trying to make trouble.

Lord Yang has calculated that his daughter has not yet found a suitable family. It’s not that there are no ones who like his daughter. There are several scholars who are interested in her.

But he looked down on him. That poor scholar just wanted to climb up the social ladder. He could tell at a glance that he was sincere and had ulterior motives. After all, he was that kind of person.

Therefore, this good opportunity of the Qin family's wedding today must not be missed, and Lord Yang shamelessly brought his daughter to the Qin family again today.

Before leaving, Lord Yang specifically told his daughter Yang Xue, "No matter what, you have to succeed today. It's either the prince or the fourth son of the Qin family. You must seize this opportunity. If you miss it, there will be no such good opportunity again."

Yang Xue had a determined look on her face, "My daughter knows."

What Yang Xue was thinking about was how to conquer Xiao Jingyi, and as for Qin Jia Silang, she didn't even take him seriously.

With Prince Xiao Jingyi in front of her, Qin Jia Silang is just a small juren. What is there for her to worry about?

So he never even thought about conquering Qin Jia Silang.

There are so many members of the Qin family coming today that if their house wasn’t quite big, it would hardly be able to accommodate so many people.

The area beyond the third courtyard belongs to the backyard. The women went from the third courtyard to the fourth courtyard. As they didn’t want to make too much noise in the front courtyard, many of them even went to the fifth courtyard.

There were countless male guests in the first and second halls.

Among the Qin family, Qin Erlu is the only official in office at present. He basically doesn't know the civil officials, and there are also a lot of military officers who come.

People like Prince Wang and General Pei were basically greeted personally by him, the groom.

If Lord Pei wasn't marrying off his daughter today, it would have been difficult for him and his wife to visit his in-laws. They would have definitely come to join in the fun today. In contrast, the Pei family seemed a bit desolate.

Only General Pei was a member of her niece's family when she was at home, and he was Qin Erlu's superior when her niece was away.

The main reason is that the Bai family is a little worried about their daughter, fearing that she might be bullied.

Of course they knew that the Qin family was not that kind of people. There were many people coming today, including all kinds of people, and they were afraid that the Qin family could not cope with it, so they asked the general to come and keep things under control.

However, after he arrived, he realized that his family was too suspicious. With King Xiaoyao here to support him, who would dare to cause trouble here?

Yet there are still people who dare to do so!
