Spoiling my mistress and swallowing my dowry? After my rebirth, I changed my marriage to a powerful

The former Princess Roudan would never think of becoming an empress, even if she was ridiculous.

But Xinzi is a modern person nowadays, and the idea of ​​gender equality is deeply rooted in her mind. Women can be entrepreneurs, presidents, and even emperors!

Wei Shixun's face looked extremely ugly.

Since childhood, Princess Roudan has been ruthless and extremely cold-hearted. Supporting the Wei bloodline to ascend to the throne is her firm goal, so Lord Cheng'en chose her to be the "secret phoenix" of the Wei family when she was ten years old.

Over the years, at least half of the silver, money, grain, soldiers and horses that Duke Cheng'en had embezzled and schemed were in her hands.

A total of about 30 million was spent on buying ships, boatmen, and goods, but that was just the money he kept privately near Kyoto.

Over the years, the soldiers, horses, and food supplies they had hidden in Princess Roudan's hands were worth at least three hundred million (three hundred million).

This is the court's tax revenue for about fifteen years.

No matter how cunning Wei Shixun was, he was a little panicked and his expression changed.

No one understands Princess Roudan better than him. This person is cruel and there is no one in the world that she would not dare to kill or do.

If she dares to kill her half brothers, she dares to kill Wei.

The guy who was playing with the eagle got his eyes pecked by the eagle!

Wei Shixun suppressed his anger so as not to arouse Princess Roudan's suspicion.

"Princess, what you said is really unbelievable... However, I want to tell you, Princess, whether you or the Crown Prince ascend the throne, you must first remove His Majesty from that position. The most urgent thing for you, Princess, is to prepare the cash, food, and troops."

Princess Roudan said nonchalantly, "Don't worry, there's plenty of money."

However, the supplies cannot be converted into cash for the time being, and many of them are scattered in other places.

In order not to attract the attention of the Imperial City Bureau and His Majesty, the money and supplies were all in the hands of the male favorites.

She really couldn't come up with 20 million in cash.

She has two big ships, so she should probably be returning home soon.

When the ship left, Lao Wu said that a round trip would take about half a year to a year. It would depart in September and would be back by late spring at the earliest.

Wei Shixun saw that Princess Roudan was now thinking about becoming an empress, so he did not alarm her. He just said he would go back and discuss it with Wei Jingzhong.

However, he was cunning and still persuaded: "Princess, please prepare 20 million silver for grandfather first, and we can talk about the rest later."

Princess Roudan said, "I don't have any cash, but I will give you 20 million in three months."

Wei Shixun's heart was pounding. He didn't know that Princess Roudan was taking the Maritime Silk Road. He just thought that she was holding on to the supplies and refused to give them up in order to force the Wei family to support her as the empress.

He frowned slightly and said, "Princess, the war has started and the money cannot be delayed for a moment, let alone three months, even half a month is not enough."

"You started a rebellion without any preparation? You want me to pay for it? It's just money, but you want cash right away? How could I know you were in such a hurry?"

Wei Shixun said patiently: "Princess, you have to consider the overall situation. Even if you want to be the empress, you must have sufficient troops and food to force His Majesty to abdicate first."

"You've waited for so many years, why can't you wait another three months?"

Wei Shixun was really annoyed.

Does she know what she is talking about?

Now your majesty has drawn his sword, three months? The opportunity has already passed!

No, their bodies have already gone cold!

"Princess, I don't care what you think. Grandfather has issued the transfer order and the uprising is imminent. If you don't take out the silver now, tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people will die. I can suggest that Grandfather delay the time, but you must prepare the silver within ten days."

"When you borrow money, you are a grandson, and when you pay it back, you are a father. Ha, you are a borrower, but you are acting like a master before you pay it back?"

Princess Roudan said sarcastically, "You forcing the emperor to abdicate, what does this have to do with me? I have already fulfilled the relationship between the grandparents and grandchildren by not reporting you. My father is on the throne, my brother is on the throne, and I am a princess. There is no special benefit for me, so why should I risk my life to protect you?"

Wei Shixun looked at Princess Roudan. He really didn't expect that Princess Roudan would say such shameless words.

It's thieves eating thieves, right?

Starting a rebellion is treason, a capital crime, but isn't that the same thing about conspiracy? There are bound to be sacrifices and benefits.

It’s just that some people benefit earlier and some people benefit later.

He was very skeptical. Did his grandfather and father really think seriously before choosing Princess Yurong?

Suppressing his anger, Wei Shixun sneered back: "Princess, you are a princess while His Majesty is on the throne. If after a hundred years, it is not the crown prince who ascends the throne, you may not be a princess."

"What is this palace?"

"It's a corpse, it's rotten bones!" Wei Shixun said, "If the crown prince doesn't ascend the throne, and your majesty's illegitimate sons ascend the throne, you will die without a burial place."

"I only fulfill my duty as a princess and do not seek power or usurp the throne. Can't I be a rich princess?"

"How ridiculous! Who do you think you are? Look around, throughout the dynasties, who is as absurd as you?

As long as your reputation is protected, those people will use you to bring disgrace to the royal family and cut you into pieces to correct the trend."

"But the situation I'm in today was caused by the Wei family! Those lovers were all forced upon me by you, it's all because of you..."

"Princess, be careful with your words! This is all consensual. Otherwise, do you think you can survive to this day?"

Wei Shixun pushed his wheelchair and called for guards, and there was no way to talk anymore.

Before leaving, he said sternly, "Ten days, only ten days, you must personally deliver the twenty million taels of silver to the Wei Mansion. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences yourself!"

Princess Roudan was a little scared now.

She knew that this was ancient times, and it was not easy for a woman to become an empress.

If the Wei family tried their best to protect her, and she had the supplies, she could still fight for it. But if the Wei family turned against her, she would have no way out.

Even if Wei Jingzhong was not Duke Cheng'en, with his power, it would be easy for him to kill a princess who was hated by everyone.

"Ten days is not enough. I really can't get 20 million taels of silver."

When she bought a ship a while ago, she easily got 30 million taels of silver from her subordinates, and she immediately counted the property she had on hand.

Only then did I realize that she was more than just wealthy enough to rival a country.

He can be considered the richest man in mainland China.

But her money is hidden from the public.

"Where's the silver? Where's the silver that your grandfather and father gave you?" Wei Shixun had a very bad feeling. Could she have spent it all?

"I used the silver for investment and it will take at least three months for me to get it back." The return of the ship does not mean that I will have the silver immediately. The goods must be converted into cash, which will take at least a few more months.

"What? What did you invest in?" Wei Shixun was really upset, and his face was filled with visibly furious anger.

"I can't tell you for now. Anyway, I'll be able to get it out in three to six months."

"You, you bastard!" Wei Shixun cursed without thinking, "You ruined my grandfather's plan!"

Wei Jingzhong trusted Princess Roudan, and at least two-thirds of the supplies were hidden in Princess Roudan's hands.

At least half of the war horses were given to her for safekeeping, as well as various food, uniforms, armor, and supplies.

Wei Shixun thought desperately that the silver and supplies that Princess Roudan had kept with her might have been given away by her to some wild man.

I dare not think about it.

I'm afraid the uprising will have to be postponed.
