were born into the imperial family. Originally, you wouldn't have achieved anything in life, and you might even have died young in this cruel environment of power struggles. But because of your weakne...Chapter 1180: Aunt and Someone Kissing

"That's new."

Li Chen became interested and said, "Tell me in detail. As long as it makes sense, this palace will listen to you."

Liu Sichun persuasively said, "If Your Highness were to personally appear, then in the eyes of those big merchants and landowners, even if Your Highness were to be most courteous, it would still be seen as the power of the East Palace Prince compelling them to pay."

"For the sake of their lives, they might surrender. But what we need isn't just their money. Even if they have a fortune, it's like a drop in the ocean compared to the well-being of the entire nation."

"What we need is for them to lead the way, spread the word, and present this as a phenomenal opportunity. Ordinary people wouldn't know about it otherwise. All they know is that these are the most successful businessmen in their eyes, if they say it's good, then it must be good."

Under the influence of herd mentality, with a little guidance from the court, this matter has a chance of being resolved.

Therefore, it's best if someone close to Your Highness possesses enough status and standing to subdue these people. However, it shouldn't be Your Highness personally involved. This way, it carries Your Highness's authority while avoiding any resentment or resistance... The Crown Princess would be the most suitable candidate.

When Liu Sichun uttered the three words "Crown Princess," he also braced himself, summoning all his courage.

In her opinion, only the Crown Princess was the most suitable choice.

Li Chen listened silently for a long time.

He is considering Liu Sicun's suggestions.

Have Su Jinpa do it...

Had there not been the rebellion that night, Li Chen would have absolutely refused Su Jinpa's stunningly impressive performance.

But now, it seems not out of the question.

After a long silence, Li Chen said: “Draw up a list of those landlords and merchants for me. I will have someone send them a message.”

This is done.

Liu Sichun respectfully said, “Your servant obeys.”

Getting up, Li Chen said, "Alright, it's about time. Let's have a meal first. After the meal, this palace should head back."

The meal at Liu's house was quite plain.

Only Liu Sichun, Liu Sida, and Uncle Liu San were able to keep him company.

Later, Liu Sida cleverly brought his son, Liu He, over. Li Chen was also very polite and directly let Liu He sit next to him for a meal.

"If Your Highness finds it agreeable, in the future, have Si Chun bring Liu He Duo to the East Palace to keep You company."

At the dinner table, Liu Sidar cautiously brought up.

Li Chen smiled and glanced at Liu He, who was eating with a wooden spoon, his face covered in rice grains. "That's good. The East Palace is sparsely populated and rather dull. Having a few more children can add some liveliness."

Liu Sida clenched his fist under the table with all his might.

He looked at his son, and he felt as if he saw a golden road ahead.

He never expected that one day he would have to rely on his son.

After the meal, Li Chen got up and returned to the East Palace.

The entire Liu family came out to see Li Chen off at the door.

At this point, the carriage had arrived. Li Chen stood beside it, accepting the list that Liu Sichun had prepared. He said to her, "Your nephew, Liu He, is very cute."

Liu Sichun pursed her lips and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your praise. To be favored by Your Highness is his blessing."

Li Chen's mouth twitched, "But I wonder, if it were your child, would it be even more adorable"

Liu Sichun was stunned, her eyes widening as she looked at Li Chen, a look of utter astonishment on her face.

Li Chen leaned in and gently kissed Liu Sichun's full, red lips.

This scene caused all the guards around to turn their heads, and the Liu family members kneeling on the ground buried their heads in the dirt.

Only little Liu He clapped his hands and giggled, "Kissing, kissing! Auntie is kissing someone!" will walk this path today. The only difference is whether I return with just Prince Zhao, or whether Lord Wang comes with me to the East Palace to meet His Highness"Wang Fuyong's mind was suddenly fl...
