Chapter 507 The Jealous Concubine Yu
"What is your Highness playing with the two little princesses? They are so happy that I can hear your laughter from a long way outside."
Concubine Yu pushed the door in with the latest intelligence document in her arms, and she couldn't help being stunned when she saw Xiao Xin'er and Xiao Wan'er riding on Ying Yu's shoulders.
"Your Highness really dotes on the two princesses!"
Yu Ji smiled.
"That is, who does not spoil my own prince? With these two little guys around, no matter how bad the mood is, it will get better."
"However, if you can add a few more little guys, then the prince will be happier."
"Why don't we both work harder to make the Prince's Mansion more lively?"
Ying Yu looked at Yu Ji and laughed.
"Your Highness, you are the Crown Prince of the Great Qin Dynasty. You have no right to say such embarrassing words in the open sky."
"Besides, even if it's a child, I'm afraid it won't be the slave's turn. Didn't Your Highness just make an appointment with the number one beauty in Rome, Princess Sophie?"
Concubine Yu stared at Ying Yu with big eyes, and continued to speak with a gesture of asking questions:
"I remember that His Highness said a few days ago that he didn't like any Roman princess at all, but after seeing her once, he was captured physically and mentally by that Roman beauty."
"Your Highness likes children so much, and likes to be lively, why don't you go to Princess Sophie to give birth to ten or eight for you, why are you looking for me?"
Seeing her cute appearance, Ying Yu didn't know that Yu Ji was jealous because of his marriage with Sophie.
But Ying Yu was not surprised, because he had already expected this scene to happen when he agreed to marry Sophie.
"Silly girl, you have been with the prince for so long, why don't you understand me?"
"Marriage is always a matter of two people, and it involves a lot of things. Isn't your sister Diya the same?"
"Furthermore, a girl with a yellow flower came from a long distance. If I reject this marriage, wouldn't it be equivalent to abandoning her in the whole world?"
"This prince can't do such a heartless and ungrateful thing."
Ying Yu smiled and explained to Yu Ji.
"Hmph, don't think I don't know. You only agreed because of the beauty of that Roman princess. Anyway, you are the prince, so it makes sense."
Yu Ji thought for a while, then nodded slightly.
"Okay, okay, always flattening your lips, but it will become unsightly, and then don't blame the prince for not wanting you."
Ying Yu put down the two little guys on his shoulders, then gently hugged Yu Ji's shoulders and comforted her.
This made Yu Ji, who was aggrieved and jealous just now, suddenly melted away.
"Hey, in fact, it's a good thing to have one more sister to accompany us. You can chat with us to relieve boredom, and save your Highness from tossing us all the time."
Speaking of this, Yu Ji couldn't help but think of the playfulness before, and her pretty face couldn't help but bulge.
"It turns out that Xiao Yuji is still thinking about this matter. It seems that the prince has to deepen your impression."
As he spoke, Ying Yu smirked and took Yu Ji into his arms.
After the two played and played together for a while, Yu Ji remembered that she was here to deliver information.
"Your Highness, there seems to be another big move in Rome recently."
"Well, because of the national conditions of Rome, Scipio was the chief executive of Rome, but he has been restrained for a long time, and he can't do many things. Now he finally married our Great Qin, and some big moves are normal."
Ying Yu nodded.
"According to the latest intelligence, Scipio, the supreme consul of Rome, gathered almost all the great nobles and held a meeting of elders in his mansion. At the meeting, he issued a new decree to the whole country, announcing that from now on, Abolish the tax exemption rights of all nobles in Rome, and change it to a unified tax payment to the country from nobles to commoners throughout the country."
"This Scipio knows how to apply what he has learned. His Highness has just implemented the policy in Daqin not long ago. We haven't fully popularized it in the new counties and counties of Daqin. He just learned it from Scipio."
"However, I have heard about the selfishness of the nobles in Rome. It is said that some of them even colluded with the enemy and treasoned with Carthage for their own interests. The new law promulgated by Nascipio this time is so unfavorable to them. Are you willing to carry it out?"
"Besides, many nobles in Rome have private armies. If Scipioza does this, isn't he afraid that they will jump over the wall and cause riots in Rome?"
Yuji asked curiously.
"Of course not willingly. This new code is equivalent to greatly reducing the wealth of those nobles. With the character of those nobles who regard wealth as their life, how could they be willing."
"However, even if they are reluctant to implement the new code, they still have to implement it. The current Scipio is different from before. In the past, he had to rely entirely on the support of the Cornelius family in Rome, otherwise he would be unable to move forward."
"But now Scipio has married my Daqin, that is to say, there is my Daqin's shadow behind him now, anyone who wants to take action against him must first weigh himself, whether he can afford to touch Daqin The Consequences of Tiger Whiskers"
Ying Yu said lightly.
"But Your Highness, although my Great Qin is far stronger than Rome, the distance is too far after all. The Suez Canal and the railway that can quickly lead to Rome have not yet been completed. If there is a riot in Rome, my Great Qin should be too far away. "
Yu was very puzzled.
"You don't know this. Those people in Rome have been oppressed by nobles all year round, so they have been dissatisfied with the unfair treatment of nobles and commoners for a long time."
"Now that Scipio has promulgated a new law, forcing the nobles of Rome to pay various taxes to the country just like the common people, his prestige in Rome will definitely be greatly improved, even if it does not reach the level of popular support. , at least you can respond to everything.”
"Those nobles started riots internally, and I, Daqin, are indeed out of reach, but even if they succeeded in killing Scipio, so what?
At this time, the new law code has been promulgated. Even if they reverse the promulgated new code, they will be outraged by the public, and no one will abide by it. "
"Furthermore, my Daqin is beyond reach, but it is not always out of reach. Even if the Suez Canal is not opened, it will only take a little more effort for our Daqin army to reach it, but it is not impossible to reach it.
At that time, they will have to face the liquidation of Daqin. "
"Although those Roman nobles are selfish, they are not stupid. They will never do such a thing that is not worth the loss."
Ying Yu smiled slightly and explained it to Yu Ji in detail.
"So that's the case, but why do I always feel that my Daqin has become Xibi's tool man? He used my Daqin's prestige to achieve his various goals."
Logically speaking, Rome should be the enemy of Great Qin. Yu Ji couldn't figure out why Ying Yu would help Rome.
