Chapter 214 Palace Intrigue World: A Harem Pierced Through Like a Sickle VS An Awakened Emperor with
The more Su Jinyue thought about it, the more feasible her idea seemed, so she straightened up and spoke to Xiao Jing'an.
"My Taobao system has many good things, such as making soap, bar soap, white sugar, glass, clocks and watches, etc."
In ancient times, which of these things wouldn't represent enormous profits? Weren't those royal relatives who followed Xiao Mohan also after profit?
"We have these formulas in our hands, and we're willing to share the profits with them. They'll naturally abandon the darkness and turn to the light, giving up on Xiao Mohan..."
Xiao Jing'an carefully inquired about the uses and value of these items from Su Jinyue. Su Jinyue thought for a moment and realized that she had some money saved in her Taobao account, so she could buy some samples to show Xiao Jing'an.
Xiao Jing'an did not receive a reply from Su Jinyue. Instead, he saw Su Jinyue tap a few times in mid-air, and then several things appeared out of thin air.
His pupils contracted sharply, and then he realized that this must be the Taobao system that Su Jinyue had mentioned that could connect to another world.
Xiao Jing'an fiddled with the items that appeared out of thin air, wondering in his heart that it was quite magical.
Su Jinyue explained the uses of these items to Xiao Jing'an one by one. Xiao Jing'an was not a spoiled brat who was out of touch with reality. After listening to Su Jinyue's explanation, he instantly understood the value of these items.
But he was even more moved by Su Jinyue's willingness to share everything without reservation.
Su Jinyue could have easily protected herself, but for his sake, she didn't hesitate to expose her special qualities.
She said she came to save him, and Xiao Jing'an believed it to be true, but he preferred to believe that it was a miraculous encounter arranged for him by God.
And all Xiao Jing'an can do is never let him down!
Seeing Xiao Jing'an staring blankly at a watch, Su Jinyue couldn't help but ask him, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this watch?"
Xiao Jing'an quickly snapped out of his reverie, shook his head with a smile, and said, "No, it's just that I feel it's such a waste to give such a good thing to those heartless bastards."
Su Jinyue smiled and comforted him, "What's wrong with that! Good things always need to be updated and innovated. We always have first-hand information, and they can't keep up with our pace of updates."
Besides, we still have you. You're just too busy to deal with them right now, so we're using them as bait. Once you've dealt with your other problems, dealing with them will be a piece of cake..."
Xiao Jing'an was surprised that Su Jinyue thought so highly of him. He reached out and pinched the tip of Su Jinyue's nose, teasingly saying, "I didn't expect you to have so much confidence in me?"
Caught off guard by Xiao Jing'an's sneak attack, Su Jinyue defiantly raised her chin: "What, you look down on yourself that much? Even if you do, you shouldn't underestimate me! You have me, so what are you worried about failing for?"
"Hahaha..." Xiao Jing'an was amused by Su Jinyue's self-praising way of comforting people and burst into laughter.
Su Jinyue felt embarrassed by Xiao Jing'an's laughter. She had only said those words to comfort him, so how could Xiao Jing'an do that?
Enraged, Su Jinyue raised her hand and lightly slapped him: "Xiao Jing'an!"
"Alright, alright," Xiao Jing'an laughed until tears streamed down his face, but seeing that Su Jinyue was really angry, he quickly got up to coax her.
"It's my fault. What Jin Yue said is true. I underestimated you..."
Xiao Jing'an stepped forward, naturally embraced Su Jinyue, and apologized softly.
As he spoke, Xiao Jing'an's attention was drawn to the beautiful scenery before him, and he then veered off-topic.
They were already in bed, naked, and now they were so intimate, it was only natural that they would be attracted to each other. It wouldn't be surprising if it happened again...
The New Year arrived quickly, and high-ranking officials, their families, and members of the imperial family all entered the palace for a banquet.
Although Empress Jiang Lingyao deliberately tried to provoke Xiao Jing'an by using the issue of the palace banquet list last time, she should have felt uncomfortable.
But she was, after all, the Empress. She behaved herself for a few days, and when she saw that the matter in Qianqing Palace had not been spread, she knew that Xiao Jing'an had cleaned up the mess for her.
In this way, no bad reputation spread, and Jiang Lingyao was relieved.
Although she no longer had any image to speak of in Xiao Jing'an's eyes, Jiang Lingyao didn't care much about Xiao Jing'an's opinion of her.
Anyway, Xiao Jing'an is unlikely to depose her from her position as empress. At most, it will be a little more difficult for her to sleep with Xiao Jing'an next time.
Jiang Lingyao quickly prepared the New Year's banquet in the palace according to palace rules.
Jiang Lingyao didn't deliberately spread the news that there was a beauty in Qianqing Palace, but there are no secrets in the palace. From the day Jiang Lingyao left Qianqing Palace, news began to circulate.
But Xiao Jing'an was, after all, the emperor. None of the newly arrived concubines had yet served him in bed, so no one was confident that they could win Xiao Jing'an's favor, and naturally, they had no right to complain or question him.
Everyone was watching Empress Jiang Lingyao's news closely. After all, the Empress had been in the palace for more than two years, so it was perfectly legitimate for her to step forward.
But after watching for several days, Jiang Lingyao was busy with the New Year's banquet and had no intention of paying attention to this matter at all.
Undeterred, they tried different methods to send messages to the Empress Dowager.
But the Empress Dowager is too ashamed to interfere in Xiao Jing'an's love affairs right now.
The Empress Dowager originally wanted to matchmake Xiao Jing'an and Han Wanyue, but Han Wanyue really didn't understand the rules of the palace!
Last time, when Xiao Jing'an created an opportunity for her and Xiao Jing'an, she managed to get Xiao Jing'an to bestow upon her a governess. However, at the banquet prepared by the Empress, she was completely unpresentable in terms of makeup, speech, and dance.
After learning of Han Wanyue's actions, the Empress Dowager was furious. Even now, knowing that Xiao Jing'an had hidden a beauty in the Qianqing Palace, she had no face to care about the matter.
Seeing that the Empress Dowager remained silent, everyone finally realized that no one was standing up for them.
Their hopes were dashed, and since they were all in the inner palace and couldn't reach the Qianqing Palace, they had no choice but to give up.
However, they did not completely give up. Before, when Xiao Jing'an did not enter the harem, they thought that Xiao Jing'an was not interested in women at all. But now that they know there are beauties in Qianqing Palace, then Xiao Jing'an is fine.
Since Xiao Jing'an's orientation is not a problem, the New Year's palace banquet is a good opportunity to see him. The concubines in the harem are all putting in their best efforts to dress up so that Xiao Jing'an will take a liking to them at first glance.
Therefore, the palace became quiet before the New Year's banquet began.
The day before the palace banquet began, Su Jinyue finally returned to her palace in a low-key manner.
After all, she needed to attend the New Year's banquet, and her previous confinement should be lifted by then.
These past few days, Su Jinyue and Xiao Jingan have been discussing how to utilize the Taobao system and spending their time chatting.
