In the original plot, Qin Xuezhen also used this method and promised to improve the family status of these merchants after he succeeded.

However, after she actually established her own kingdom, she put this matter behind her.

Because at that time, most of these businessmen could not escape bad luck because their country was ruined and their family was destroyed.

However, after some thinking, Yao Guangyue felt that there might not be any children from these merchant families.

If we can put aside those ranks, give them a path to the imperial examination, elevate their own status, and tie them to the court, then at the critical moment, if the court is in danger, they will definitely not sit idly by and do nothing.

After thinking about this path, Yao Guangyue gave the third prince such an idea.

However, the disadvantages of being an official for a businessman are also great. These businessmen are not short of money. Once corruption and fraud appear in the court, it will be troublesome.

"Little sister, do you know that these businessmen are not short of money. If their descendants become officials in the court and use their money to open a way out, the consequences will be disastrous!"

"Third brother, don't worry. I have already thought of this, so I will focus on you so that their descendants can become military generals."

The third prince suddenly realized that to be a military general, you have to go to the battlefield based on your true ability. If you are not careful, something will happen.

Many people were unwilling to send their sons to the military camp, but the court did make concessions, and they had nothing to say.

And even if there are one or two who can become the best, they cannot decide the national affairs in the court unless they speak up in the court.

In this way, there is no need to worry about any malpractice on their part. As for those who bully others, they will be dealt with according to military orders and regulations, which will be stricter than the law.

At the same time, the military is a very money-consuming place. It is indeed a good idea to tie these merchants and the military together.

"Little sister, you really gave the brothers some guidance! Great, now there is a way to solve the problem."

"Wait a minute, third brother, it's not just that. It doesn't sound good but it's what everyone pursues. How do you deal with those who don't want their descendants to become generals?"

These words immediately stopped the third prince, but he also knew that his little sister must have a way.

"Little sister, you are so smart, don't show off, tell third brother quickly!"

When talking about this, Yao Guangyue was actually in a dilemma. She only thought of a way to do this, either to benefit her descendants or to glorify the clan, but she really didn't know how to do it.

After all, Qin Xuezhen in the original plot did not give these merchants any actual benefits.

"Anyway, the third brother just remembers to seek fame and reputation. If it doesn't work, ask the second brother. I can't do the rest either!"

After saying that, Yao Guangyue ran away in a panic. When the third prince woke up from his dream, he was still in a daze.

"Buying fame and reputation? How do you do this?"

Yao Guangyue here also woke up from her sleep. It was already late at night and everyone around her was sleeping.

Yao Guangyue let out a long sigh and tried to talk to the system.

[System, are you asleep? I can only think of so much, and there are not many hints in the original plot. Can this matter be solved? 】

[Host, don’t be anxious. Let’s do our best to obey fate. We have already figured out a way. The rest depends on what the two princes do. 】

Yao Guangyue sighed and could only plead in her heart that the two royal brothers could understand her thoughts.

That night, the third prince didn't sleep at all for the rest of the night. He rushed directly to his second brother's room and threw himself on the bed.

The second prince was so frightened that he thought someone was coming to commit suicide, and he almost didn't get kicked.

"How brave, who is it?"

"It's me, second brother, stop fighting, ah!"

The second prince was so frightened that he almost flew out of his wits. When he realized that someone was pressing on him, he punched him with a combination of punches.

The third prince was unprepared and was beaten into panda eyes by his second brother!

Half an hour later, the man below brought two boiled eggs. The two brothers each peeled one egg and then treated the swelling in the third prince's eyes.

"You stayed up most of the night and just rushed into my room. Why did you stab me on the bed?"

The third prince is also aggrieved. Isn't he excited?

"I didn't expect you to be so harsh. Fortunately, you didn't hide the knife under your body, otherwise I would have told you here today."

"Just be satisfied. I thought that since General Mu is here, no one would dare to attack, so I put away the knife today."

The two brothers almost killed each other, but fortunately they had the majesty of General Mu.

"Why are you coming here in the middle of the night? Is there anything you can't talk about until dawn?"

"Isn't this exciting? I just met my little sister."

When the second prince heard this, he couldn't help but poke his eyes again with his hand.

"Oh, second brother, don't poke my eyes. What are you doing?"

"You have no memory, why did you go to the imperial concubine? The imperial concubine is your son-in-law, what are you doing in the middle of the night?"

The third prince knew as soon as he heard that his second brother had misunderstood, so he hurriedly explained.

"No, I didn't go to her place. It was my little sister who gave me a dream. The little girl in the dream looked like a little unicorn, red, and very cute. Those painting books in the market painted the unicorn mythical beast tall. Mighty, that's not the case at all, the little girl is soft, cute, and warm."

The second prince felt itchy after hearing this. He didn't expect his little sister to be so cute. However, she is only so old now. Even if she is a mythical beast, she should still be in her infancy.

"My little sister is young now. She should be in her childhood form. Did she tell you anything in the dream? Today I heard her asking for some gloves. It seems like it has something to do with the dream? And the focus is on you."

The third prince nodded repeatedly and told his second brother what his little sister had just said.

"She only left four words: "Gulling for fame and reputation," and I couldn't understand it. She said she wanted me to come to you, and here I am, and you beat me up."

The second prince heard what his younger brother said and instantly caught a glimpse of his thoughts.

"For fame and reputation, scholars, farmers, and merchants, merchants are the last. These merchants either want their descendants to get rid of their merchant status, or..."

The second prince thought for a long time and suddenly understood the meaning.

"I understand, my little sister wants us to ask Father's will to confer these business titles."

"Ah? How can merchants be enthroned? They can't give them too much power, otherwise the people will abandon farming and engage in business. This is just as convenient as being an official."

The second prince shook his head and explained: "It's not about canonizing the living, it's about canonizing the dead. It's about canonizing their fathers and ancestors, giving them a good name, and satisfying their desire to gain fame."
