When Bai Ruyi received his subordinate's report and rushed over, he had already removed his bow and stood motionlessly in front of the steel bars of the dungeon.

Beneath her feet, bright red blood dripped everywhere.

Bai Ruyi was so frightened that he retreated two steps, and then hurriedly took two steps forward and peeked his head out of the dungeon. Prince Xian had long since stopped breathing, his eyes were tightly shut, and his neck was tilted as he laid on the mat. His body was like a hedgehog, densely packed with arrowheads.

"This... "This …" Bai Ruyi was confused for a moment.

The Prince Xian was a prince who was very serious. Although she was locked up, her crime was not set, and she just died in the dungeon. Jin Xiaolou had committed a grave crime, death was guaranteed.

Just as Bai Ruyi was hesitating about whether he should catch the person in front of him or not, he heard calm and powerful footsteps coming from behind him. Turning around, he saw Prince Yao Qin De and his guards quickly approaching.

After Gao Lang received the decree, he worriedly looked at Jin Xiaolou. Seeing that the osmanthus branch in the house had disappeared, Jin Xiaolou frowned, and immediately brought Chang An to the Supreme Court, where she saw Jin Xiaolou.

Looking at Jin Xiaolou's expression, Gao Lang's heart ached. This kind of cruel action where his hands were stained with blood, he should do it for her.

Gao Lang waved his hand and immediately led his men to surround the people in the dungeon.

With a sweep of his eyes, Chang An said in a cold voice, "As long as half a word of today's matter gets out, none of you will be able to survive."

As soon as his words fell, all the guards kneeled down and said, "Don't worry Prince Yao, I didn't see anything and I don't know anything."

"Very good." Chang An nodded, "Prince Xian committed suicide out of guilt, you should all remember this."

"Yes, yes, yes." One of the smarter ones immediately answered, "I saw it with my own eyes, Prince Xian couldn't take it, he committed suicide and died, we couldn't stop him!"

Amidst the buzzing sounds in the dungeon, Gao Lang walked straight towards Jin Xiaolou, opened his arms, and pulled the tearstained face into his arms. "My wife, I'm here."

Jin Xiaolou turned his head and placed it on Gao Lang's chest, feeling much better.

After a long while, he slowly opened his mouth, "Let Nan Yang go, it's just that... I don't want to see her right now. "

The Great Zhou had greatly developed the military and economic sectors, making the land under unified management. The diligent Prince Yao Concubine Jin Xiaolou had pulled all the rare treasures and flowers in the garden behind the Prince Yao Palace, and turned them into some kind of experimental field. Year after year of research, the variety had been improved.

The crops improved by the Prince Yao Concubine not only had a better drought resistance and resistance to insects, but also had a good yield and taste of fruits. Forget about farmers, a year's harvest was as good as it had been two or three years.

As soon as the harvest was good, the people would be well-dressed and would have plenty of money to spare. The economy of trade would be better off as well. Not only was Great Zhou's domestic economy flourishing, it had also attracted the surrounding nations to come forth and do business.

Jin Xiaolou had specially opened up a path of trade, greatly promoting the prosperity of his Great Zhou. Because of the economic exchanges they had had, the borders of their Great Zhou had also reached an unprecedented tranquility. The other nations all hoped to be able to do business with their Great Zhou, so naturally there would be fewer wars.

The capital was already the capital of ten thousand kingdoms. Walking on the streets of the capital, people of all kinds of languages and races came and went one after another.

The silver that he earned every day was like flowing water, the more money he had, the more he would work on her business blueprint, he would set up the first bank in the capital, and set up a deposit slip for the ordinary citizens, receive money from their stores, and even provide services for them to borrow money.

Because Jin Xiaolou was the Prince Yao's Concubine and had researched many crops that would benefit the citizens, everyone in the Great Zhou praised the Prince Yao's Concubine Waive. He was a remarkable woman that was rarely seen in a hundred years, so everyone naturally trusted her and deposited all the money they had saved into the bank.

As the private bank gradually disappeared, the bank blossomed all over the place, spreading out from the capital city to its surroundings. Very quickly, the entire Great Zhou, and even the most remote small town, had the existence of a bank.

After Jin Xiaolou obtained a large amount of funds, she started to build a large general store center in each of the large cities in Great Zhou.

There were even shops from other countries that were introduced to sell things that were full of exotic emotions. The outer walls of the center were all pasted with the advertisement of the fiery girl from Liuli Workshop. After changing at intervals, not only did they earn the advertising fees, but they also accumulated more and more popularity for the girls.

Originally, the commoners in the south would not be able to see the specialties in the north in their lifetime. But now, they could buy things from all the stores in the slightly larger counties, in the hearts of all the shops, and even buy things from all the places in the Great Zhou.

Such a large change was achieved in a short three years, and Jin Xiaolou's name became a legend known by every household in the Great Zhou.

Jin Xiaotao was right under her nose, she saw that Jin Xiaolou had done everything she could do, bit by bit, better and better, with a posture that made him seem like she was as rich as a nation. The commoners were even grateful and fond of Jin Xiaolou, causing Jin Xiaotao to clench her teeth in jealousy and hatred, but she couldn't do anything about Jin Xiaolou.

Right now, with Jin Xiaotao's status, it was already impossible for him to have any interactions with Jin Xiaolou, even if sshe wanted to meet Jin Xiaolou once, he would need to pass the words to him one by one, and it would depend on Jin Xiaolou's mood to see him.

Jin Xiaotao was in panic, the anger in her heart did not have anywhere to vent and it had all been poured onto He Guangkun's body.

They said that the eldest son of the Prince Yao's Consort, Jin Xiaolou, Zhao Lin, would be six years old by the end of the month. The Emperor had specially invited the Prince Yao's family and the court's officials to the palace for a feast on Zhao Lin's birthday.

It was only natural for the Emperor to place such importance on Zhao Yao. The Emperor was only twelve or thirteen years old when he ascended the throne, and the Empress Dowager was behind his back. If it wasn't for the Prince Yao helping him take back the Imperial Jade Seal, he probably would still be a puppet emperor now.

In these last few years, it was all thanks to Prince Yao and his wife that their Great Zhou had been so flourishing. One of them was like a god using troops, and was intelligent enough to know his place, so in just three short years, he was able to promote many capable people.

However, there were also rumors that the Prince Yao couple had rendered great merits for their master, the Emperor already harbored resentment towards them. It was just that due to the lack of ability, he still had to rely on them, but if there was a chance in the future, he would definitely remove the hidden danger beside him.

Jin Xiaotao's shop had long been closed for business, she did not have that ability in the first place, she used to copy all the Mountain Note, but now, the Liuli Workshop were not only unique, the secret recipe she could not learn, and the price was even cheaper than hers. The De's Shop did not have any business, and the money she earned from it was not even enough to split with the shop assistants, so she dismissed the shop owner early and rented out the shop.

Seeing that the other people's days were getting better and better, but she was getting worse, and at the moment when she heard Jin Xiaolou's name being called outside, Jin Xiaotao was so angry that she smashed her cup, and cursed sinisterly: "A bastard with the surname of Jin, and the surname of Zhao, is he worth celebrating so unrestrainedly? I think the people in this palace really have nothing to do after eating their fill all day! "

He Guangkun who was leaning on the side and reading his casual book, frowned upon hearing this: "All these years you have been talking more and more about me, what does what I do have to do with you!"

Jin Xiaotao was not satisfied with He Guangkun in the first place, not only did she eat at home everyday, he even acted like a young master.

"If you want to act like the young master is the boss, then scram back to your home in Xin Ning. I'm in charge here, even if you fart, don't use a single copper coin!"

When Jin Xiaotao finished shouting, her face was red and white.

Although Jin Xiaotao had despised him, other than him, Jin Xiaotao could not find another man. The two of them had lived together for so long, yet neither of them mentioned or left each other.

But every time there was a quarrel, Jin Xiaotao would always poke a knife into He Guangkun's chest.

"You, you! "How vulgar!" He Guangkun sighed, "It's all because of the Jin Family. You two sisters are like heaven and earth! I, Jin Xiaolou, have no parents, and I am much more capable than you, a girl who has a father that dotes on your mother! "

"She has no parents …" Jin Xiaotao gasped for breath, so angry that his eyes were red. But after a slight pause, she suddenly rolled his eyes, and her expression suddenly revealed a baffling sense of pride, "She would have liked her to have no parents, but unfortunately, everything in this world cannot be as she wishes!"
