Mind reading, the emperor saw my fist hard

Chapter 208 Bank

Princess Changle has been extremely busy ever since she accepted the official position given by her brother, and she has forgotten where she was feeling when she was cheated by her husband.

Emperor Xuan was happy to see that she had become a princess, so he just let her be.

That day, Princess Changle returned to the princess mansion after finishing her work. Just as she sat down, the nanny beside her came to report that Lord Xu and Wuyang had come together.

"Hahaha·····"

Princess Changle laughed heartily.

Now all the officials know that His Majesty was tricked by Xu Jinyu and the Crown Prince, making his brother miserable. But it is difficult to tell others about the affairs of the harem.

He could only tell his imperial sister that when he thought of his imperial brother's dark circles under his eyes and gritted his teeth when he mentioned Xu Jinyu, the smile on his face was so bright.

Princess Changle wanted to laugh again.

This is the first time in all these years that my brother has suffered such a loss, and he suffered it willingly.

"Meet Aunt Changle."

"Meet Princess Changle."

After greeting each other, the three of them sat down, and Princess Changle asked Xu Jinyu with a smile: "Master Xu, why did you think of looking for me?"

Xu Jinyu: "I'm looking for you to do a good deed. I want to open a bank, but I can't do it with my manpower and energy, so I have to ask you for help."

[Ah~~ If this women's bank is opened, it will offend half of the world's population. I can't handle this alone, so it's better to bring in a few more people. ]

[It would be great if we could get the Queen and Queen Mother involved. As a role model for women all over the world, the Queen should be willing to do something for women.]

Princess Changle paused while drinking tea. It turned out that Lord Xu had no good intentions towards her, but she was also curious about what a bank was.

"What is a bank?"

"A bank is an institution for depositing money. We are princesses and have a lot of silver and money in our mansion. It's very troublesome to lock the silver vault with several padlocks and find guards to watch over it."

"Ordinary people have to hide their money if they have it, not only to prevent petty theft, but also to prevent rats and other things that can dig holes, which is not very safe."

"This bank is an institution where people can deposit money and let us keep it. If it's Daqian, we can open this bank all over Daqian. In the future, we don't need to carry money when we go out. We just need..."

As Xu Jinyu continued to talk, Princess Changle's eyes lit up little by little.

The benefits of banks are more than just these. With banks, merchants no longer need to carry large sums of silver when going out.

Even taxes can...

"nice one!"

Princess Changle slammed the table.

This made Xu Jinyu, who was still racking his brains to think of benefits for the bank, shut up.

[This bank is very convenient to use. It's really hard for me to describe it in detail.]

Princess Changle smiled and said: You are an unlearned person.

"This is a good thing. You can just submit a memorial directly. There is no need to come to me!" Princess Changle pretended to be confused.

Not only is it a good thing, as long as Xu Jinyu brings this matter up in the court, he can at least be promoted a few ranks. However, getting Xu Jinyu to come to his women's bank is definitely not an easy thing to do.

"Is such that······"

Xu Jinyu told Princess Changle what happened today.

"I was thinking of opening a bank that only serves women, so that the money earned by women can fall into my hands. Even if I can't deposit all of it, at least I can keep some of it."

"Otherwise, I'm worried that they will work hard all their lives and not have a penny left, or even have no money to see a doctor if they get sick."

The history she had learned told her that in ancient times, it was too easy to take away a woman's money.

Men even just need to talk.

After hearing Xu Jinyu's words, Princess Changle also fell silent.

She had the same idea as Xu Jinyu, which was to provide jobs for women and make their lives a little better. Just like in her own rice paper workshop, all the work that women could do was given to them.

But I didn't expect that these wages might not reach them.

However, the opening of this women's bank also involves heavy construction work on men's heads, and Princess Changle is not sure whether this bank can continue to operate.

but·····

Never mind. At least I can get it done while I’m here, and as long as I can fool around in the beginning it will be fine.

Princess Changle took action with great vigor and decisiveness and stood up directly.

"You go back and sort out the memorials for the bank. I'm going to go find my brother now. Remember to come to court tomorrow morning."

Xu Jinyu looked embarrassed.

[I don't want to go to court. If I go, the emperor will punish me. Four of the five people who bravely broke into the brothel that day were punished, and I am the only one who has not been punished yet. If I go to court tomorrow, I will be walking into the muzzle of a gun.]

[No! I won’t go even if I die!]

Xu Jinyu’s thoughts almost made Princess Changle laugh: This unfortunate child still knows how to hide!

“Ahem…”

"Tai'an, how can you not attend the court? You were the one who proposed the concept of this bank. If I were to explain it, I might not be able to explain it clearly."

"But..." Xu Jinyu still felt uneasy and didn't want to go to court.

"Have you forgotten those poor girls?"

"but······"

Xu Jinyu feels extremely guilty now.

"Don't worry! I'll be here tomorrow. I will definitely help you hold your brother back."

"Really?"

"real."

"Then I'll go!"

"That's right!"

Princess Changle nodded with a smile. She was not there last time and did not see the officials acting so agilely. Tomorrow when she went to court, she should be able to see the civil and military officials being angry but not daring to speak out.

It must be interesting to think about.

The next morning, Xu Jinyu struggled to get up from the bed and went to court.

After getting off the carriage, Xu Jinyu saw Lord Zuo Xiangan at a glance.

Xu Jinyu forced a polite smile, wishing he could disappear right there.

He was so excited at that time that he pointed at Zuo Xiang and shouted at Censor Luo. Now, seeing Prime Minister An’s old face, Xu Jinyu’s legs went weak.

When An Xiang saw Xu Jinyu, he snorted coldly: "Humph! Lord Xu has a sharp eye."

[Here they come, here they come, the one looking for the revenge, I knew that nothing good would happen when I went to court, why did I agree to Changle? ]

[There is also the emperor, and there are so many officials. How did I manage to offend so many officials at once?]

[I regret it!!! I regret it!!!]

[I was so excited at the time that my brain was boiling and I didn’t think about the consequences.]

Everyone: Isn't Lord Xu's reaction too slow? He has been enjoying himself for so many years and now only feels regretful. Isn't it too late?
