for the sake of the greater good. But the Crown Prince is different. As regent, he has a fiery temperament and wields great power. Who do you think he would listen to at this time”"Furthermore, he has...Chapter 1668: Liu Sichun's Vision

Liu Sichun is not stupid.

She could feel that before, Li Chen's words and actions towards her, though never explicitly stated, perhaps in his eyes, she had already become his forbidden treasure.

Even if Liu Sichun considered himself exceptionally capable, the Crown Prince wouldn't entrust such a crucial matter as national debt to him.

From the transportation of salt to the later promotion of sweet potatoes and now to money houses and national bonds, every step has been on an important node of the Prince's grand plan. Liu Sicun understands that when a man entrusts a very important matter to a woman, he already has the intention of wanting her.

After all, even the most trusted subordinates or confidants can't replace someone who is truly close to you.

There's nothing more reassuring than having a woman completely consumed, body and soul.

Besides, almost everyone in the court knows she is the prince's chosen one, so no one dares to have any thoughts about her... She doesn't look down on others, either.

Prior to this, Liu Sichun had adopted an attitude of simply accepting the situation and letting it unfold naturally since there was no way to resist.

But after her encounter with Su Jinpa today, Liu Sichun made up her mind not to enter the palace.

It's not that Su Jinping is too domineering, but rather Liu Sichun can feel that Su Jinping truly intends to accept her. However, for some unknown reason, Liu Sichun just doesn't want to enter the palace.

Rather than that kind of life, she would rather be unknown and live outside the palace for a lifetime.

Just as Liu Sichun had made up her mind, Liu Sidar suddenly appeared beside her.

"Little sister, just what the Crown Princess said..."

Don't overthink it.

Liu Sichun saw the gleam in his eyes and immediately understood what he was thinking. With a blank expression, she said, "I won't enter the palace."

Liu Sida was stunned and anxiously said, "Are you crazy This is an opportunity that countless women dream of, yet you refuse it Don't even say that you can live a life of wealth and glory for yourself, even our Liu family would benefit from this. Are you willing to just watch our Liu family be looked down upon as merchants"

"Now who would look down on the Liu family"

Liu Sichun countered, "Throughout the capital and most of the surrounding region, who doesn't know that the Liu family is an imperial merchant, deeply favored by the Eastern Palace Compared to official titles, the actual power in their hands is what people truly fear. Would anyone dare look down on the Liu family"

Liu Sida's words were blocked, and he stammered, unable to speak.

With a light sigh, Liu Sichun said, "Second Brother, I know what you're thinking. In the end, the Liu family still needs a man to stand out. Although my surname is Liu, the future children won't be. If the Crown Prince doesn't look upon me favorably, then I might never have children in my life. I can live alone until the end of my days, but the Liu family cannot be without an heir, right"

Li Sida blushed and felt a little embarrassed.

It wasn't just him; the several elders who followed also seemed hesitant to meet Liu Sichun's gaze.

After all, the current status of the Liu family was all thanks to Liu Sichun's efforts, yet they were already plotting how to return the heir of the Liu family to its rightful position. This is indeed unkind and unfair to Liu Sichun.

Liu Sichun gave a wry smile and said softly, "Since everyone is here today, I might as well announce a decision."

“In the future, once the national debt projects are completed and the Liu family returns to stability, I will divide the ancestral property of the Liu family into three parts according to a ratio of four, three, and three. Thirty percent will go to my second brother, another thirty percent will go to his future children, and that child will also become the heir of the Liu family. As for me, I will take forty percent, but this forty percent will not be from the ancestral property of the Liu family, but rather all the industries related to the Eastern Palace.”o.A trace of scarlet blood seeped from the corner of his mouth, and the scout knelt on both knees, collapsing heavily to the ground.The sudden change startled the surrounding people, who screamed and...
