Be A Virtuous Wife! So Tough!

C203 – Tang Yue’s Confession

“Little Prince, have you had a good time today?” Yangu took care of Little Luoyuan after he took a bath and changed him into the clothes that Tang Yue designed himself.

“Yes,” Little Luoyuan said. Little Luoyuan grabbed the two balls of fur on his clothes and began to blurt out some of the contents of today’s game.

Yangu touched his little head in relief. Before coming to Ye City, she had always been uneasy and worried that the Crown Prince Palace might not be able to take good care of the young master.

When she found out that Crown Prince had already taken a concubine, she had thought about not sending the young master over without following the agreement. With the inheritance left by the General’s Estate, it was enough for her to raise the young master. But that way, the future of the young master would only be mediocre.

When the general was alive, the young master was still a noble, but after the death of the general and his wife, the young master had no elders or brothers, so his identity was awkward.

Yangu admired General Luo more and more, and hoped that the young master would become a man with indomitable spirit. Therefore, entering the Crown Prince’s Palace was the best and most direct way out.

“If the young prince wants Crown Princess to be well, you are now under Crown Princess’s care. In the future, you will be the legitimate son.” Crown Prince’s direct son, what kind of noble status was that?

Little Luoyuan naturally did not understand this sentence. After Yangu finished speaking, she smiled first, “It is this servant who is anxious. You are still young.”

Little Luoyuan looked at her a few times and gave half of the delicious and fun things he bought today to her. In Little Luoyuan’s memory, Yangu was the same as his mother.

His father was naturally Tang Yue. As for Crown Prince, his father in name, he was sorry. In Little Luoyuan’s heart, he was at most an uncle.

From the second day onwards, Tang Yue entered an unprecedentedly busy time. He shut himself in the study for three whole days, writing and drawing. He organized a hundred pages of paper. The content covered the agricultural, business, labor, studies and medical systems. Other than the medical system, it was his specialty. The rest is just a vague concept.

For example, he knew that the development of agriculture needed to be done with water irrigation, but he did not know how to do it. He knew that to increase production, he needed to improve good seeds, but he did not know how to improve it.

He knew that the development of business relied on the support and encouragement of the government, the appropriate subsidies and rewards, and the reduction of taxes, but he only knew the basics of how to do it.

There was always a distinction between work and farming. If one wanted to do good work, one had to make good use of it first. In terms of farming tools, tools, and weapon improvements, he believed that he could be of great help.

In war, burning food was the most expensive. They needed sufficient food, equipment, and soldiers. Every single one of them was money.

Tang Yue wrote in his manuscript that in the next five years, at least two-thirds of the annual financial income would be used for military expenses. This required the financial income to reach a high level. Otherwise, it would not be able to maintain the normal operations of a country.

When this manuscript was handed to Crown Prince Zhao, he was completely stunned. The content here was definitely not something that could be found in this era. If it could really do what Tang Yue wrote, then it would be impossible. South Jin and North Yue were no longer on the same level.

The country was rich and the people were strong. These four words were written in a simple manner, and it was extremely difficult to write them. In this era where productivity was so low, Tang Yue’s ideas could be said to open up a door for the entire South Jin to become rich and the people were strong. This allowed Crown Prince Zhao to see the light of victory.

“Did you write all these?” Crown Prince Zhao did not know how to describe Tang Yue’s talent.

Tang Yue reached out his right hand and smiled. “Let’s get to know each other again. My name is Tang Yue. I came from the 21st century. I am a surgeon.”

This was the first time Tang Yue told Crown Prince Zhao his real identity. He knew that no matter how hard he tried to cover it up, it would be useless. When he was ready to help Crown Prince Zhao, he knew that this day would come.

Since Crown Prince Zhao knew that his identity was suspicious, it would be a waste of his trust if he pretended not to know.

Besides, Tang Yue was very confident that he could get Crown Prince Zhao’s approval. From the beginning, he knew Tang Yue, not the countryside kid who grew up at the border.

Crown Prince Zhao rarely panicked because of something. He had not been afraid for many years. However, when he looked at this familiar person and the familiar voice, he felt a chill in his heart.

“Who… who do you think you are?”

“My name is Tang Yue. I don’t know what the original owner of this body is called, but since the first time we met, I am the current me.”

Crown Prince Zhao secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He reached out and touched Tang Yue’s face, inch by inch. It was hot, soft, and smooth. It was no different from the normal feeling.

“You said the original owner of this body… then you?” Crown Prince Zhao already had a guess, but he felt it was too unbelievable.

He did not believe in ghosts and ghosts, did not believe in heaven and earth. He really could not understand what was happening.

“Yes, the original owner of this body is already dead. And I am a soul that came from over a thousand years later. To put it bluntly, I am actually a person who came back from the dead. Is His Highness afraid?”

Was Crown Prince Zhao afraid? He asked himself. After a long time, he had to admit that he was afraid, but not because he was afraid of the soul that came back from the dead, but because he was afraid that Tang Yue’s condition would be unstable.

What if one day the soul disappeared as well?

What if one day the soul and the body did not fit together?

What if one day this soul suddenly returned to his original world?

So many if it really did happen? What would Crown Prince Zhao do? What would their family do?

Crown Prince Zhao held Tang Yue tightly in his arms and asked in a low voice, “Do you feel uncomfortable now?”

He could not imagine how Tang Yue felt when he was resurrected in this strange body and saw a completely foreign world.

“Don’t worry, I’m fine. I think I can live another forty or fifty years.” Tang Yue relaxed when he heard his heart beating too fast.

This secret had been hidden in his heart for too long. He didn’t dare to tell others. Only Crown Prince Zhao could make him want to tell others.

“No wonder…” Crown Prince Zhao let out a breath. In this way, there would be an answer to all unbelievable things.

Tang Yue knew what he wanted to say. He joked, “Your Highness must have suspected my identity a long time ago. Why didn’t you ask?”

“Why? Your whole body belongs to me. Even if you have secrets, they belong to me. As long as you are alone in the Crown Prince’s Palace, Crown Princess, these secrets will forever be hidden in your heart.”

He did not mind her keeping this secret for the rest of her life.

However, when he heard Tang Yue tell his biggest secret, he felt a sense of trust and satisfaction in his heart.

From now on, they would be husband and wife without holding anything back.

Tang Yue spent some time talking about modern things, but words alone could not describe a modern world, because Crown Prince Zhao could not understand or imagine it.

What was a car? Four wheels and an iron leather cabinet?

What was a plane? It could carry hundreds of people flying in the sky?

He could not find an answer to these questions. Tang Yue did not want him to know the answer. They were two eras that had crossed thousands of years. They could not be compared.

“I learned medicine. I have accumulated knowledge in other aspects in my daily life. Some are common knowledge, some are my personal understanding. It may not be applicable. I can do it. That’s all I can do.”

Crown Prince Zhao looked at the article about increasing the production of food and smiled in satisfaction. “Enough, this is enough!”

With these inspirations, he believed that In less than three years, South Jin would be able to double the grain output.

The Crown Prince’s Palace was unexpectedly busy. There were many officials and people who came and went. These people usually stayed in the Crown Prince’s Palace for more than half a day.

Old Prince’s spies in the Crown Prince’s Palace only found out that Crown Prince had been working harder and harder recently. The lights in the study didn’t go out until the third night.

This was a good thing for a country. Old Prince could not report him because of his diligence, but he felt a little uneasy.

There were more and more officials in the Imperial Court who were leaning towards Crown Prince Zhao. Wang Zixu and Crown Prince Zhao had been involved in the gossip of brothels, but the former was despised for a long time, and the latter was not hurt at all.

It had to be said that Crown Prince Zhao held an important position in the hearts of the courtiers and the common people.

However, he knew that this was also because Crown Prince Zhao had established an upright and mighty image from a young age. Even if he bullied men and women in public, no one would believe him.

Just as Old Prince was about to attack Tang Yue, Crown Prince Zhao suddenly offered 32 policies to govern the country at the court meeting. The long and long policy shook the entire court, and even King of South Jin was shocked.

Crown Prince Zhao did not sign his own name after the thirty-two policies of governing the country. Instead, it included fifteen officials in the court, as well as twenty-three capable people among the people. He had written down every single one of them in detail.

These names were written on it, which greatly reduced King of South Jin’s vigilance towards Crown Prince Zhao.

Although there were some officials in the royal court who impeached Crown Prince for forming a party, Crown Prince Zhao listed all the officials who participated. It was considered that they had crossed the clear road.

If he wanted to form a party, these officials did not work for him, but for the entire South Jin. If he wanted to rule, these strategies were only proposed by him, and the final decision was still in King of South Jin’s hands.

It was said that the 32 policies of governing the country included almost all kinds of industries. Agriculture was the most important, education was second, and then there were all aspects of labor, business, medicine, and so on.

There were also people who objected to the 32 policies. The most common reason was that there was not enough money. No matter which one it was, it was a big investment, and the national treasury did not have money.

However, this reason was rejected by Crown Prince Zhao. He listed out the entire budget. Only less than one-tenth of the budget was needed from the national treasury. The rest of the budget was from the private treasury of the Crown Prince’s Palace. Some were sponsored by the nobles of Yueyang Marquis’s Mansion and some were invested using the profits from the paper mill.

Speaking of the paper mill, the profits of the factory controlled by Yueyang Marquis’s Mansion were considerable. The price of the paper was not high in South Jin, but there were a lot of people who bought it.

After selling it to North Yue, the paper was unexpectedly approved by all the scholars. Even if the price was high, those who had the conditions were willing to buy it.

Although North Yue’s treasury was poor, the aristocratic families of North Yue were all rich. They didn’t need to hesitate to spend some money to buy paper.
