"Don't call yourself my concubine, I'm not used to it."

"Your Majesty, what I said is true."

Xiao Leshan said in a low voice: "I have figured it out. After all these years, there is still any hatred that I can't let go of. What's the point of remembering it like this anymore?"

"There was a dynasty that was overthrown by an enemy country, and all the princesses and concubines became harems. What do I have?"

This is true, similar things do exist.

"Your Majesty still doesn't think I'm beautiful enough."

When Xiao Leshan was talking, she got a little closer to Guan Ning, and he could already feel the softness.

However, Guan Ning took a step back.

"Do you believe these words yourself?"

Xiao Leshan's expression flashed unnaturally, and she said, "What do you mean, Your Majesty?"

"Your hatred for me has never weakened, but has continued to deepen as time goes by..."

Guan Ning said: "Yuanwu has been here for seven years. You have been imprisoned for seven years. You are not allowed to go out in this palace. Ordinary people may have gone crazy. But what about you?"

"You actually figured it out?"

"Do you think I will believe it?"

Xiao Leshan's flattering expression gradually faded.

This made Guan Ning even more sure of what he wanted.

"Other than the support of hatred, I can't think of anything else. You tried your best but you didn't know how to get revenge. You were imprisoned here and you couldn't do anything, so you started to use the honey trap!"

Guan Ning looked at Xiao Leshan.

"It is true that you have unparalleled beauty and figure, but I am not someone who can't move when I see a woman!"

"A woman will only affect the speed at which I draw my sword!"

"you……"

This last sentence made Xiao Leshan completely change her face.

Her plan was discovered before it even started.

She had nothing but skin, so she used a honey trap. As long as she could lure him in and make him relax his vigilance, there would be plenty of opportunities...

But he was not moved at all.

yes!

The biggest flaw is that how can one remain normal after being imprisoned in this place for seven years?

It is hatred that supports her.

"Give up, you can't do anything."

Guan Ning looked at her.

That alluring dress couldn't make him feel any excitement at all.

"I hate you, I hate you to the core!"

"It was you who ruined the Xiao Dynasty, you traitor!"

Xiao Leshan became angry and returned to her original appearance, her chest rising and falling due to anger, which was particularly eye-catching...

Guan Ning shook his head, turned around and left without saying another word.

He stopped again.

"The last descendant of the Xiao family, who is also your younger brother Xiao Luan, is about to be caught by me. Let me tell you."

"I'm going to kill you!"

Xiao Leshan ran towards Guan Ning.

But before she had taken two steps, two maids came over and held her tightly.

This maid is not an ordinary palace maid, she was once from the first floor of Tianyi, specializing in taking care of Xiao Leshan.

She was furious and cursed angrily.

"Don't blame me for being heartless. I can only blame you for being born into an emperor's family. If you want to blame me, blame your father."

Guan Ning left without saying a word.

Honey trap?

Very funny!

I have never seen what kind of woman.

"His Majesty."

Grandma Xin came over.

"Keep an eye on her. If she wants to commit suicide...there is no need to stop her."

"yes."

"His Majesty?"

Yongning wanted to speak but stopped.

Although she was not Emperor Long Jing's biological child, and Xiao Leshan had treated her badly, she still couldn't bear it.

"It was a relief for her."

Yongning nodded.

yes!

Confined in this lonely hall, year after year, day after day.

It's really better to just die.

She stopped thinking about it and left here with Guan Ning...

Two more days passed.

Aunt Xin came to report, and Xiao Leshan used three feet of white silk to kill herself.

Guan Ning just sighed lowly after hearing this.

Xiao Leshan is the widowed daughter of Emperor Long Jing, and this identity has doomed her fate. It’s good that she is finally free and no longer has to bear hatred...

Apart from this, Guan Ning had no other emotions.

Xiao Leshan is dead!

Then there is really only the last person left...Xiao Luan!

He will also soon track down his father and brothers.

Guan Ning has already set off.

According to the planned itinerary, he was going to the border of Huaizhou to condolences the army, complete the transaction with Wei State, and then go to Beilin Province...

This time the team was huge.

In addition to his car, there was also a transport team filled with pork, grain, and wine...

Since it is a condolence, how can we go empty-handed?

There was also a caravan consisting of thirty-two merchants.

This was urgently prepared by the Commerce Department. When they knew that His Majesty was going to personally lead them to Beilin Province, they no longer had any doubts.

And they were also told that as the first batch of businessmen to go, this was in compliance with the government's policies, and they would also receive a series of benefits such as reduction of business taxes.

There was no need to worry about the market for the copper and iron received in Liang State, as the imperial court purchased it directly.

This is a sure-fire business.

Of course they won't refuse.

I just heard that Beilin Province is not very stable, but there is no problem in this regard. There will be troops to protect their safety.

Guan Ning not only wanted to target Liang Guo, but also took this opportunity to promote the development of commerce and cultivate a group of businessmen who could serve the court when needed.

This is inspired by the state of Wei.

The entire team was quite large and naturally attracted attention. Although he had already informed the place and did not have to waste time and money on reception matters, this routine was still unavoidable.

In order to avoid these situations, Guan Ning tried to reduce stops as much as possible, but necessary rest and supplies were still unavoidable.

Guan Ning chose Micangfu as his first stop.

This is intentional.

When the summer tax was collected, something big happened in Micang Mansion, causing great shock!

At that time, Guan Ning issued a requirement to collect all receivables, which meant that tax evaders would be severely punished.
To be continued...
