Capítulo 454: Save You From Trouble

Li Xueyue could barely contain her smile. She didn't want to seem too arrogant by smiling so widely. This was one of her first victories without any external help. 

At the previous Round Table Discussion, her proposal of lowering taxes upon commoners was approved partly because there was Representative Wu Shiming who supported her idea. Her success then wasn't entirely her own. However, today, she had won over everyone by her own merits. 

Her eyes flashed with determination, as there were a lot more to changes she wished to make in Hanjian. But she was still young and her future here was bright. 

'One step at a time,' she reminded herself as the corner of her lips lifted up a bit, brightening her expression.

When she made eye contact with a disgruntled Duke Han, Li Xueyue slowly nodded her head in acknowledgement. He narrowed his gaze, but nodded back. He was still a powerful man, and she knew it would be unwise of her to make an enemy out of him.
