Not long after the three of them arrived at Princess Changping's mansion, Caiyun came out to greet them.
She looked at Li Changkong with a strange look, as if she was wondering what kind of mentality Li Changkong had that allowed him to sell out more than 100,000 taels of silver in less than half a month.
This person really vividly explains what it means to spend money like water.
But since he didn't say goodbye, Caiyun still bowed down, saluted, and said, "I've met Uncle Anbei."
"Your Highness has been waiting for a long time. Just come with me."
When Li Changkong heard this, he nodded slightly and didn't say much.
As for Zhen Jian and Li Jibei, they remained silent and planned to just act as foodies today.
After a while, Li Changkong and the other three followed Caiyun into the main hall of the princess mansion.
Then they saw Princess Changping, dressed in red, with an exquisite face, looking at Li Changkong with a smile on her face.
When Li Changkong saw this, he couldn't help being slightly shocked.
Because he keenly noticed that Princess Changping seemed to be wearing rouge today!
Princess Changping was born extremely beautiful, and her long military career added a bit of heroic spirit that is rare for women. She can be described as heroic!
Among all the women Li Changkong has seen, Zhaoyang and Huaiqing are equal to them in terms of appearance.
But when it comes to temperament, Zhaoyang is inferior.
Only Huaiqing can barely compete with him.
If all the legendary deeds of Princess Changping are added to it, then Huaiqing will be incomparable.
Although Huaiqing was also famous for her talents in Daqian, she was still inferior compared to Princess Changping and other strange women who formed a women's army and went to fight on the battlefield.
"The princess is really beautiful and beautiful, and her grace is unparalleled." Li Changkong sincerely praised her.
Hearing this, Princess Changping had no reaction on the surface. She just said calmly: "Bo Anbei is so complimentary. Please come to the table."
However, only people like Caiyun who are familiar with her can feel her joyful mood at this moment.
After all, Princess Changping's slightly raised eyebrows, slightly raised corners of her mouth, and the joy deep in her eyes cannot deceive anyone.
"Oh, it seems that His Highness is really interested in this boy." Caiyun sighed deep in his heart, feeling a little helpless.
Although Princess Changping repeatedly emphasized to her that Li Changkong was very talented, she must not neglect him.
But in the past half month, what Li Changkong has done in the capital of Jin really doesn't look like he has great talent.
He looks like a gambler who has become addicted!
I don't know if it was to entertain Li Changkong, but all in all, today's dinner was very sumptuous.
There are even musicians and dancers to add to the fun.
Caiyun felt that even if His Majesty entertained guests, this would be the standard.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Princess Changping asked Li Changkong: "Uncle Anbei came to see me today. What do you mean?"
"Your Highness the Princess is joking. Could it be that if nothing happens, I won't be able to come?"
"Of course not, it's just that Uncle Anbei never visits the Three Treasures Palace for anything. I think he will only think of me when something happens." Princess Changping raised her eyebrows slightly and said with interest.
"Ahem." Li Changkong coughed twice and looked embarrassed: "The princess really guessed it right today."
"I came here this time to...want to borrow some money from Her Highness the Princess."
As soon as these words came out, the entire Princess Changping Mansion fell silent instantly, except for the sounds of Li Jibei and Zhen Jian eating.
Caiyun looked at Li Changkong dumbfounded. Deep down in his heart, his impression of Li Changkong had dropped to the extreme!
How could anyone talk about borrowing money so smoothly, so naturally, and so grandly?
And he still borrowed money from women!
Whether in Daqian or Dajin, men are often the backbone of the family, and the money they earn far exceeds that of women.
Therefore, as a man, it is undoubtedly an extremely shameful thing to borrow money from a woman.
Looking at all the countries in the world, this is the case!
After all, he, Li Changkong, was also a fourth-rank general of the Western Conquest of Daqian, and he was also the Anbei Bo appointed by the Emperor of Daqian.
For such a person, he is not afraid of making people laugh when he says such things?
However, unlike the turmoil deep in Caiyun's heart, Princess Changping only narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at Li Changkong with a sharp look, that's all.
To be honest, after hearing these words, Princess Changping, instead of being angry, actually let down a lot of her guard.
After all, Li Changkong said such words without even caring about his own reputation.
That means that the news that he is addicted to gold mining is 80% true.
In this way, the person's danger level will drop sharply.
From this point of view, borrowing some silver is nothing.
"How much does Uncle Anbei need?"
"Not much, just fifty thousand taels."
Hearing this, Caiyun almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.
Fifty thousand taels, is that enough?
Do you know what you are talking about?
Ninety-nine percent of people in the Jin Dynasty will never earn a thousand taels of silver in their lifetime.
Not to mention fifty thousand taels?
Even high-ranking officials who have been in officialdom for a long time cannot come up with such a large amount of money!
Even enough to wipe out the entire wealth of a small aristocratic family!
Only some big aristocratic families or money shops that are more than a hundred years old can get such a large sum of money at once!
However, when it came to Li Changkong's mouth, it was just that!
You said these two words so easily!
Caiyun glanced at Li Changkong calmly, his expression even more indifferent, even showing a bit of disgust!
On the contrary, Zhen Jian and Li Jibei thought it was okay.
After all, Li Changkong started his family with fifty thousand taels of silver!
And I still owe fifty thousand taels!
Besides, just a pair of jade dragon bis sold for one hundred thousand taels of silver.
You are such a dignified princess that you can't even afford fifty thousand taels of silver, right?
"Okay!" Princess Changping took a sip of tea and said, "It's just that fifty thousand taels is not a small amount!"
"Even I can't lend it to you for free."
Princess Changping's eyes are deep and incomprehensible.
"Then what does Her Majesty Princess mean...?" Li Changkong asked following the other person's words.
"We have to make an agreement between you and me!"
"Since this money was borrowed, it must be paid back!"
"If you pay it back, there must be a deadline!"
"If the time limit is exceeded, there will be punishment, how about it?" Princess Changping said with a smile.
"If you borrow money from someone, you will naturally have to pay it back. This is the only right thing to do!"
"Your Majesty, if you have any requests, just tell them right away."
"Okay, then it will last for one month. If Uncle Anbei fails to repay the 50,000 taels of silver after one month, he will become an official in the Jin Dynasty!"
As soon as these words came out, it was like seeing a dagger in a picture.
The atmosphere in the entire main hall suddenly became stagnant.
Even Zhen Jian and Li Jibei, who had been immersed in eating, noticed something was wrong. They stopped their movements and looked at Li Changkong seriously.
Don't agree to such a request haphazardly, otherwise, you will easily be unable to stand up!
