Bienbeicheng is a small, isolated and backward town. It is the closest town to the border between Jin and Zhou. But here is the most prosperous area in the north. It can be seen how backward the entire northern border is.
When Jian Yu came to Bianbei, the first thing she felt was the enthusiasm of the people, and then poverty.
No wonder Zhou Jinyan said there won't be any nice clothes or exquisite snacks, because many people here have trouble eating, and other material enjoyments are definitely lacking.
Zhou Jinyan introduced him to Jian Yu on the way here, and Mrs. Jian also said a lot, so Jian Yu was very prepared and was not too surprised.
Zhou Jinyan and Jian Yu talked about his efforts to improve people's lives. It's not that he didn't try, but he failed every time.
In the past seven years, Zhou Jinyan had made up most of his net worth, but nothing had changed in Bianbei City. Zhou Jinyan was good at fighting, and his IQ was top-notch in political strategizing. The only thing about leading Bianbei to wealth was that he suffered repeated defeats and defeats.
Jian Yu came here with great ambitions. No matter what difficulties and dangers she encountered, she would achieve her goals. However, the reality was very different from what she thought, because she basically encountered no obstacles!
According to the information Hongmei inquired about, the prince had killed all the thorns in Bianbei, and the remaining people were obedient.
Prince Jing is a powerful dragon and a local snake in the border area.
Jian Yu:......
It's really surprising but not surprising.

Prince Jing did not come back from Shengjing by himself, he also brought back a princess! Whether in the military camp or in Bianbeicheng, this is a big event.
As soon as the princess entered Bianbeicheng, she occupied a street of shops, and everyone was waiting to see what the princess would do.
Not only others, Jian Yu was also waiting. She wanted to see how the local merchants would react. Three days had passed, but their response was no response.
Jian Yu finally understood why Zhou Jinyan always failed, because no matter how hard he tried, Bian Beicheng was like a pool of stagnant water, like a fist hitting cotton, and without any reaction, he didn't know whether what he was doing was right or wrong.
But this is not difficult for Jian Yu. Compared with fighting with various forces, she actually feels that this situation is easier to handle!
In the past, Zhou Jinyan's behavior was just scratching the surface and did not really touch the needs of the people and merchants. This is what she is good at.
The momentum is great!
After arriving in Bianbeicheng, it seemed that Princess Jing had left the house after selling the store. In fact, she had already contacted the An family on the way here and planned to open a trade route.
When the people get rich and have money in their hands, even if she doesn't do anything anymore, Bianbeicheng will become rich.
After planning this, she had just replied to her grandfather's letter when Hongmei came in with an invitation, saying that Mrs. Huang from the city was here to pay her respects.
The people in Bianbeicheng are indeed poor, but the rich families are still very rich. After the several forces that once occupied Bianbeicheng were wiped out by Prince Jing, the original middle-class families came back to the top, with Huang Headed by the three families of , Liu and Bai.
They were more obedient and low-key than the previous forces, so they let it go.
Jian Yu also learned that these families monopolized several major industries such as grain, cloth, medicine halls and medical shops in the north.
As Princess Jing, Jian Yu could naturally sit still. As expected, these families became unsteady after watching.
According to inquiries from Shengjing, Prince Jing is very fond of Princess Jing, but the actual fact may be wrong. It has been seven or eight days since he returned from Shengjing, and the prince has been in the military camp and has not returned!
It doesn’t look like he’s being pampered!
So the ladies sent Mrs. Huang to take the lead, wanting to find out the background of Princess Jing. Even if she didn't have the identity of Princess Jing, her background was different!
The daughter of the Jiangnan magistrate, the most beloved granddaughter of the current emperor! Even if the prince does not favor him, they would not dare to mess with his sister-in-law who is highly praised by the emperor and whom the concubines in the harem give way to.
To be precise, they came to worship the mountain.
Prince Jing said in Bianbei that after several forces were wiped out in the past, they were indeed in a good position, but they were also worried in their hearts, fearing that one day they would be punished if they failed to do so.
Unfortunately, they have no channel to contact Prince Jing, even if they want to "understand", they can't! What should I do?
The arrival of Princess Jing solved the urgent need. No matter what, as the mistress of the palace, Princess Jing's words carry a lot of weight. If anything happens in the future, she will be able to speak in front of Prince Jing!
Unlike them, it is difficult to even meet.
Jian Yu did not respond to the invitation, but only said that there would be a banquet at the house the day after tomorrow, and Mrs. Huang was welcome to come. In addition, the Bai family and the Liu family also received the news. In addition, some generals' wives were also invited.
The peaceful Bianbei City became lively, and many ladies went to buy new jewelry and makeup, hoping to leave a good impression in front of Princess Jing.
Mrs. Huang: "When I go this time, I must first understand what kind of person Princess Jing is. We must not talk to each other. For the sake of the Huang family, I have to endure my temper and try not to express my position!"
Mrs. Liu: "Prepare gold, silver and jewelry as a gift. I don't believe that no one likes these. Don't have too many yellow and white things! Don't do anything else if you can lose money and avoid disasters! How about Princess Jing, we have to wait and see!"
Mrs. Bai: "If Prince Jing and Princess Jing are at odds, it will be bad if we get too close and offend the prince. Their relationship between the couple is just a small matter, but if it happens to us, it will be a serious matter of genocide. I will definitely not do much." Just speak up and do your part."
…
This was the private conversation that the wives of each family discussed with their husbands on how to behave at the banquet the night before.
The attitude of the other generals and wives is the same. Their husbands follow Prince Jing, and they don't engage in any messy things. Princess Jing can do whatever she wants. Anyway, the prince and his master cannot treat their men badly.
If Princess Jing really bullies others too much, they won't be able to bear it!
The generals and their wives had signed up before arriving. They were lying to Jian Yu, a noble lady from Shengjing, who was facing a powerful enemy and said they were not nervous.
Everyone reacted like this. The teahouse storyteller's story book should take the "first credit". The noble ladies in his stories were all the kind who talked and laughed happily and killed without blood.
Probably because he pays attention to the rules and at the same time can put people to death for you.
Not only are they nervous, many ladies are also afraid.
Even their husbands were a little panicked. If Princess Jing established the rules, how could their wife understand the complicated etiquette of Shengjing! I'm afraid that any place I look for will be wrong.
The Bai, Liu, and Huang families could not see Prince Jing, but the generals could, and those who were brave enough told him about it.
"Your Majesty, do you know that the Princess and the Queen are holding a banquet in the mansion tomorrow?"
"have no idea."
Zhou Jinyan really didn't know that after he came back, he started pulling out the nails in the military camp, reviewing the details, training troops, etc. He was so busy that he didn't go back for seven or eight days. When he finished it the day after tomorrow, he had to go back to the prince's palace!
It's okay not to mention it. When his subordinates talked about Princess Jing, the suppressed thoughts surged up and he wished he could go back home right away.
But as a general, he has his own responsibilities, and Jian Yu understands that. She even wrote a letter specifically to ask him to handle the affairs of the general camp first. She is also very busy in Bianbeicheng. She has something to do every day, not just guarding the boudoir. The resentful woman, who feels sorry for herself and is sentimental, reassures him.
These words made Zhou Jinyan dumbfounded.
Not only was he busy here, Jian Yu also wrote a letter telling him not to go back home these days, as she probed people's hearts.
Thinking of this, Zhou Jinyan looked stern, "No, I can't think about it any more, otherwise I will be scolded if I can't control myself and sneak back to find Yu'er."
I can’t think about it anymore! I miss you like crazy!
Zhou Jinyan walked to the martial arts training ground. He was originally going to train soldiers, so he decided to leave the field and fight all over to vent his anger, otherwise he would always think that Yu'er would not be interested in doing anything.
When the subordinate saw Zhou Jinyan leaving and stayed there for a long time, he realized!
It turns out that the relationship between the prince and the princess is not good! The prince became cold-faced when he mentioned it to me, which shows that his feelings are not deep!
There is no need to have too many taboos!
The subordinate passed the news to his wife, who then told the people around her. Inexplicably, the story of the prince and princess' bad relationship spread.
Those secret guards who know the truth are all deceived, aren't they? Are you all blind?
I forgot that on the day of returning to the city, the prince personally helped the princess get out of the carriage, walked in front and helped kick the stones, for fear of joking the princess, and escorted her all the way to the sedan chair!
Who can be treated like this by the prince? After following the prince for so many years, does he really have the temperament of a gentleman to be a master?
Can you do this if you don't like it? !
The secret guard shook his head, the general is indeed a bit simple-minded!
