Don't panic when the end of the world comes, the boss of the group has a system

After listening to Prime Minister Lin's words in the imperial study, Emperor Tianwu complained in his heart: Isn't this the same as not saying anything? If I had money, why would I discuss this with you? I would have solved it quickly...

Seeing that Emperor Tianwu was frowning and keeping silent, Prime Minister Lin did not disturb the Emperor from complaining in his heart. He stood quietly aside waiting for the Emperor's next words.

Alas! The treasury of Dongchu was empty, and the income was not enough to cover the expenditure. The Minister of Revenue wanted to beg on the street every day, not to mention the Prime Minister who was penniless.

Emperor Tianwu complained in his heart for a while, but felt that just complaining to the prime minister would be of no use.

I should think about where to get the money...

After walking around the hall a few more times, Emperor Tianwu still couldn't think of where to get the silver.

Prime Minister Lin saw that Emperor Tianwu was so stupid and refused to take advantage of the golden thigh. He could no longer bear it and said, "Your Majesty! Wantong Chamber of Commerce is rich enough to rival a country!"

"Prime Minister! Stop! I don't have the face to go to Concubine De!"

On the land of Qianyuan Continent, there are not only four equally powerful countries, but also four powerful underworld forces that are as powerful as countries.

These four major underworld forces are not subject to the control of any country.

The "Wantong Chamber of Commerce" in Dongchu, the "Tianya Pavilion" in Beimo, the "Rakshasa Palace" in Xiqi, and the "Wandu Sect" in Nanyou.

Now the only person in the world who knows that the Wantong Chamber of Commerce is named "Meng".

As for where its nest is, it is unclear.

The other three underworld forces are even more mysterious. Not only does no one know where their bases are, no one can even tell who is in charge.

Dongchu's Wantong Chamber of Commerce is the number one chamber of commerce in Qianyuan Continent and is as wealthy as a country.

Wantong Chamber of Commerce is spread across various countries in Qianyuan Continent, and its business covers food, clothing, housing, and transportation.

The Wantong Chamber of Commerce not only engages in legitimate business operations, but also has a "Wantong Pavilion" under its name.

Wantong Pavilion does all kinds of business: buying and selling intelligence, auctioning rare items, escorting, escorting, assassination, spying...

Meng Wantong, the head of Wantong Chamber of Commerce, is 55 years old this year and has two legitimate sons, one illegitimate son, and one legitimate daughter.

Defei Meng Zhao is the only legitimate daughter of Meng Wantong.

Emperor Tianwu is a man with a really good life, like a chosen son of God.

Emperor Tianwu's biological mother, Empress Dowager Su, is 52 years old this year. When she was a girl, she was a famous talented woman in the capital. She came from the Su family, a family of generals.

Empress Dowager Su, who came from a family of generals, was both civil and military, and quite resourceful.

In the struggle between the Su and Gu families, the Gu family, the favorite family of Emperor Chongde, was almost wiped out several times by the Su family.

Gu's methods were also remarkable. He remained calm in times of crisis and brought people back to life several times.

When the Su and Gu families were fighting in full swing, Emperor Tianwu was still a young and ignorant boy. He took no part in anything and unknowingly became the crown prince.

……

Look at the wife and concubines chosen by Empress Dowager Su for Emperor Tianwu. Each of them has a remarkable family background.

Queen Xiao Junyue is 35 years old. She is the eldest daughter of the current General Dingbei and the biological mother of Crown Prince Chu Yu.

Imperial Concubine Lin Yuwei is 31 years old. She is the eldest daughter of Prime Minister Lin and the mother of the second prince Chu Rui and the third princess Chu Ling.

Defei Meng Zhao is 32 years old. She is the only legitimate daughter of the head of Wantong Chamber of Commerce and the mother of the eldest princess Chu Zhen.

Concubine Su Xiumei is 30 years old. She is the niece of Empress Dowager Su, the legitimate daughter of the current General Dingxi, and the biological mother of the third prince Chu Che.

The virtuous concubine Zhao Lanzhi is 27 years old. She is the legitimate daughter of the current Minister of Personnel and the biological mother of the fourth princess Chu Xi.

Concubine Li Wen Xiaoli is 28 years old. She is the youngest daughter of Marquis Yongding and the mother of the second princess Chu Yan.

Wen Chenghai, Marquis Yongding, is the commander of the capital's guard, and his eldest son Wen Zimo is the consort of Princess Chu Rulan.

Emperor Tianwu was 36 years old this year. He had only a handful of concubines in his harem and few children, including three princes and four princesses.

The eldest son Chu Yu is 17 years old, the second prince Chu Rui is 15 years old, the third prince Chu Che is 12 years old, the eldest princess Chu Zhen is 14 years old, the second princess Chu Hui is 11 years old, the third princess Chu Ling is 10 years old, and the fourth princess Chu Xi is 8 years old.

Two of Emperor Tianwu's three sons were not good.

First: I won’t go into details about Crown Prince Chu Yu.

Second: The third prince Chu Che broke his leg while riding a horse two years ago and is currently in a wheelchair.

Despite the treatments of many imperial physicians and famous doctors, Chu Che's legs showed no improvement.

The old master of the Divine Doctor Valley also came to treat Chu Che in person, but Chu Che's leg still showed no improvement.

Currently, only the second prince Chu Rui is alive and well, but unfortunately he is neither good at literature nor martial arts.

Emperor Tianwu and Empress Xiao were a young couple.

After their wedding, the two of them have been in love and living in harmony.

Before Concubine Lin entered the palace, Emperor Tianwu's heart was entirely on Empress Xiao.

Concubine Lin was chosen by Empress Dowager Su.

When Emperor Tianwu married Empress Xiao at the age of 16, Concubine Lin was only 11 years old.

Concubine Lin was too young before entering the palace and had never attracted the attention of Emperor Tianwu.

After Concubine Lin came into the palace at the age of 15, Emperor Tianwu was astounded by her beauty, and his heart for Empress Xiao was instantly split into two.

Several concubines who had children and held high positions were all selected by Empress Dowager Su herself.

Even if Emperor Tianwu is reluctant, he must treat the concubine chosen by his own mother equally.

Emperor Tianwu had few children, so he loved all the princes and princesses very much.

Even if he didn't spend the night in the harem, he would still visit several concubines in the harem.

Over time, he developed feelings for several of his concubines.

-

Concubine De, Meng, was bright and generous, dignified and magnanimous, with a generous personality, great wealth, and a little bit of a love-brained girl. The eldest princess she gave birth to was smart, clever, and cute.

The harem is now managed by Concubine De.

Empress Xiao didn't have that energy.

Concubine Lin had no money and didn't want to worry about anything.

The treasury of Dongchu was empty, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs was also stretched to the limit.

Although Concubine De seemed to be in power, she was actually paying money to win the favor of Emperor Tianwu.

The eldest princess Chu Zhen is the eldest daughter of Emperor Tianwu, and Emperor Tianwu loves her like a treasure.

Before Chu Zhen reached the age of marriage, Emperor Tianwu gave her the name "Xihe".

Emperor Tianwu went to Concubine De's "Qingyang Palace" many times under the pretext of visiting his daughter.

Defei knew very well that Emperor Tianwu's treatment of her daughter was just a cover.

When there is something going on, she calls herself "Zhao'er"; when there is nothing going on, she calls herself "Defei."

……

A family like the Meng family has no intention of marrying into the royal families of Qianyuan Continent.

Empress Dowager Su was indeed an extraordinary person. When she started to target the Meng family, she often sent Emperor Tianwu out of the palace to play, and took advantage of various coincidences to let Concubine De meet Emperor Tianwu several times in the capital.

When Emperor Tianwu was young, he was as gentle as jade, extremely handsome, and full of the domineering aura of a superior.

Defei fell in love with him at first sight, fell in love with him at second sight, and was determined to marry him at third sight.

When Concubine De made a fuss about marrying Emperor Tianwu, her father and brothers were so angry that they died.

Many countries came to invite Meng Zhao to be the queen, but none of them, father and son, agreed.

Now she is eager to become Emperor Tianwu's concubine!

One can imagine how angry Defei's father and brother were!

……

Emperor Tianwu married Meng Zhao and named her Defei. It was a major event that shocked the whole world. I don't know how many people were envious of her.

The Meng family thought: Emperor Tianwu married Meng Zhao, so it would be fine as long as he truly loved her.

It's a pity that God doesn't fulfill people's wishes!

Concubine Lin entered the palace a few months earlier than Meng Zhao.

Ever since the day Concubine Lin entered the palace, Emperor Tianwu had been in love with her. There was no room for any other woman in his heart.

Finally, under pressure from Empress Dowager Su, Emperor Tianwu had to marry Meng Zhao and consummate the marriage with her.

After Defei entered the palace, she was treated coldly by Emperor Tianwu for more than two months before they consummated their marriage.

The person you choose should be loved even until death!

Although Defei was full of grievances, she accepted her fate and obediently served as Defei of Emperor Tianwu in the palace.

With a power like the Meng family, there is no way that anything can be hidden from them.

They were well aware of the cold treatment that Concubine De received in the palace.

Defei's elder brother was so angry that he wanted to kill Emperor Tianwu.

The eldest princess is already 14 years old. After so many years, the Meng family still dislikes Emperor Tianwu.

……

Silver or grain is really not a big deal for the Wantong Chamber of Commerce.

When Prime Minister Lin mentioned "Wantong Chamber of Commerce" at this moment, Emperor Tianwu understood what he meant.

Prime Minister Lin just wanted him to ask Concubine De for money or food.

Emperor Tianwu was very conflicted, and he would not go to see Concubine De unless it was absolutely necessary.

He was not only afraid of the way Concubine De would look at him, he was also afraid that the Meng family would look down on him even more because of this.

He would rather tighten his belt...

Unless you are at your wit's end...

"Prime Minister, please go and do your work! I need to rest for a while."

Emperor Tianwu rubbed his brows and said.

"I resign!"

……

Emperor Tianwu stood in the imperial study room, thinking that Prime Minister Lin had gone far away, so he left the imperial study room...

After leaving the Imperial Study, Emperor Tianwu hurriedly walked towards Concubine Lin's Chaoyang Palace...
