me and the chief minister, it never reached a complete break. But what truly turned us into enemies was when I went to see him once. I heard him instructing his confidants outside the door about col...Chapter 526: Holding the Upper Hand

When he said this, Li Chen completely forgot how he had reprimanded Sanbao for being less generous just seconds ago.

As the crown prince, Li Chen didn't pay much attention to such trivial matters. He was more concerned with how to get the money house project off the ground.

Such a large-scale plan, and one that is unprecedented, could hardly be accomplished without cabinet approval.

But right now, given his relationship with the cabinet, it's really unbelievable that Zhao Xuanji isn't putting obstacles in their way.

It's just like when Li Chen vetoed several lists of official appointments submitted by the cabinet. Basically, any policy proposals put forward by Li Chen would be met with all sorts of resistance from the cabinet.

But Li Chen wasn't worried. Right now, he and Zhao Xuanji had a chance for mutual benefit, namely the matter of Li Yinhu.

Li Chen suddenly felt that Li Yinhu was truly an excellent experienced child, pitting him once, Zhao Xuanji had to offer some benefits in exchange.

This time, Li Chen planned to use the agreed-upon power of having Li Yinhu be responsible for eradicating the Bai Lian Jiao in the Jing'ji region in exchange for Zhao Xuanji's approval of the imperial court opening a bank.

Li Yinhǔ let out a long sigh and said, "Right now, the East Palace is refusing to approve my appointment. Elder Minister, what do you think we should do"

Looking at Li Yinhu acting, Zhao Xuanji didn't show any expression on his face, but he thought it was childish and ridiculous in his heart.

This set of acting skills, he had already worn out ten years ago, I didn't expect Li Yinhu to show off his tricks in front of me now.

" Qin states in negotiations, if successful, we will have to face the Liao state. If unsuccessful, then even if there are no consequences, the word 'failure' itself is my responsibility."Therefore, whe...
