The second room is the upper study room.
The ninth elder brother took matters into his own hands and recorded the two sums of money, the eighth elder brother and the third elder brother.
After he put down his pen, he said to Shu Shu: "Go back and tell Lao Shi that you can collect as much as you can. The more, the better."
It can't be that the bonuses of other brothers are more than ten or two hundred thousand, but when it comes to the tenth brother, the amount is limited.
As for the twelfth elder brother, wait until the evening to visit the fifth house.
But I estimate it’s only two or three thousand taels.
Shu Shu said: "Sir, it's better not to hide it from your side. You'll be annoyed later, so just tell the truth..."
Concubine Hui was startled. When she turned around and the two of them touched each other, they were about to spill the beans.
Brother Jiu was a little hesitant after hearing this.
He also wanted to learn from Fifth Brother, Thirteen and the others, and directly asked his empress to "borrow" it.
After thinking about it, I forgot about it.
My dear mother-in-law, it would be too heartless to make these little calculations again.
Even if she is partial to him and Fifth Brother, if she really encounters difficulties, the empress will do her best to help.
He is his biological son, and he was not brought here.
He nodded and said: "Then when you are older and greeting me, tell me to see how much spare money I have, and then help me earn some pocket money."
Shu Shu nodded in agreement.
Even if we are close relatives, we should say it clearly to avoid lifelong suspicion.
At this time, He Yuzhu came back from Yuqing Palace and came in to report: "Nine masters, the crown prince said that he would be free later in the afternoon. The imperial kitchen had two baskets of crabs. It was just when they were full. The crown prince said Please come over later to eat crab..."
Brother Jiu looked a little ugly after hearing this.
This is to invite people to dinner, and there is no way to mention it on the same day.
There is no way that there is not even a post, and it is just a matter of people passing along a sentence.
However, there is an exception, such as the relationship between the ninth elder brother, the tenth elder brother, and the thirteenth elder brother.
They are all his brothers, not guests.
Perhaps the prince wanted to show his closeness, but he obviously lost some respect.
After all, they didn't have that kind of friendship before. Brother Jiu was already an errand brother, not a little brother who could manipulate Ti Fiao at will.
He Yuzhu held his breath and concentrated, not daring to speak.
Shu Shu glanced at the clock. It was the beginning of the afternoon when He Yuzhu went to Yuqing Palace, but now he saw that it was the beginning of the afternoon, almost an hour later.
Brother Jiu's face drooped, and he also thought about the time. He glanced at the clock and asked He Yuzhu, "Why did you go so long?"
The time spent on the road, plus the time to see you later, should be considered half an hour back.
He Yuzhu said: "When I passed by, I happened to catch up with the prince studying, so the concierge was a little late in passing the news."
Brother Jiu rolled his eyes and said to Shu Shu: "Look at the behavior of the people in Yuqing Palace. They have eyes on the tops of their heads. I am afraid that in their eyes, the dogs in Yuqing Palace are better than those in other places." Dogs are expensive!”
Shu Shu nodded.
That should be it.
Who said that was the East Palace?
It is the East Palace that has been established for more than 20 years.
Aktun's arrogance was brought out by these people.
Even the prince himself is used to being a king.
Throughout the morning, guests from the second house came one after another, and we still haven't had lunch yet.
Brother Ninth asked: "What do you want to eat for lunch?"
Shu Shu said: "Mian, I heard that Fifth Brother ordered noodles in the morning, and I'm hungry..."
Brother Jiu nodded and said: "Just in time, I want to eat this too."
Shu Shu just listened, but he also watched several brothers eating noodles.
It was pitiful to see them eating deliciously. It seemed that the food at home was not very good.
Brother Jiu then said: "I find that Third Brother is quite interesting. He obviously has a big appetite, but when I ate in front of others before, I never saw anyone adding more rice. I just finished it in one bowl. I am not a woman, so I am afraid of eating too much." Are you making other people laugh?"
Shu Shu thought about Third Brother's stature and how powerful he was in pulling the Shili Bow. He was more like a martial artist, but he did act politely in front of others.
Brother Ninth said again: "Fifth brother has become fat again, his stomach is full, and one extra meal will cost me a whole day..."
"Fourth brother is too thin. He is as thin as a stick. His waist is not even two feet tall. It is very difficult to eat. He eats noodles one by one..."
Shu Shu smiled and listened.
Brother Jiu was a little excited at the moment.
No one could have imagined that things would develop like this.
But Shu Shu was worried that the extra money would be six to seven hundred thousand taels more than originally planned when Yu Qinggong, the tenth elder brother, the twelve elder brother, and her own were counted.
What kind of business can you use so much capital for?
Although the ninth elder brother did not mention it in front of his brothers, he did mention it in front of the emperor.
It's not a military order, but it's still a time to show your abilities.
Of course you can't lose the chain.
After a while, the dinner table was set, and Brother Jiu realized something was wrong.
He looked at Shu Shu's bowl and said, "Is your appetite bad? Why do you eat so much less than usual?"
It turned out that Shu Shu's bowl also had more soup and less noodles, and only one poached egg.
It's actually no different from Ninth Brother's.
Shu Shu pointed to the dishes in front of her and said, "Eat more."
A bowl of braised beef just came out of the pot at noon, and it was so soft.
A bowl of sauce-roasted chicken legs looks red and tempting.
The side dishes are spicy and sour cabbage hearts and tofu with meat sauce.
Most of them are high-protein foods, so you don’t have to worry about gaining weight.
Brother Jiu was relieved when he saw that she had a good appetite.
The couple had lunch.
Brother Jiu stood up and said, "I'm going to Yuqing Palace right now. I won't be too late. What's there to eat? Why are you showing off to me? It's as if the imperial kitchen has never honored us..."
Having said this, he paused and said, "That's not right. Why didn't the imperial kitchen show respect to the two houses this time? Is it because of my 'grounding'?"
Shu Shu thought that crabs were cold and should not be eaten by pregnant women.
She said: "It should be that Dr. Jiang and his son came over yesterday and asked everyone to see it."
This palace is the emperor's palace, and it is also the palace covered by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Their news is well informed.
Brother Jiu gritted his teeth and said, "For this reason, there are no crabs from the Second Institute? Do you still want to thank them for their consideration?"
Shu Shu thought for a while and said: "It should be half and half, I also mean to wait and see."
Okay, what did Concubine Yi punish her son for?
They had to guess whether Brother Jiu had committed something.
Brother Ninth had a bad impression of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and now he was even more annoyed with them for being clever. He hummed softly: "I was just thinking about how to raise the issue of the palace with Khan Ama when the Qintian Supervisor came down in the past two days. Didn’t you just come?”
He said a few words angrily, and then went to change his clothes. He was originally a half-new sapphire blue uniform, but changed into a pure red uniform, with two light gold purses hanging on his belt.
Shu Shu was standing by, looking at his makeup and feeling a little familiar.
Isn’t this Brother Fourteen’s favorite look?
It seems that Brother Ninth also liked such bright colors before he went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
She doesn't look very stable, and her face is already tender, but she looks even smaller.
Not only did he change his clothes, he also took a makeup mirror and bared his teeth for a long time, imitating the innocent and cunning expression of the fourteenth elder brother.
Shu Shu, who was standing by, couldn't help but laugh and said, "I really put a lot of thought into this..."
Brother Ninth snorted and said: "If it's cheaper, the third brother and eighth brother will be cheaper too. It's the older brother and younger brother who brought me up. That one is the master, I don't want him to take advantage..."
The more unstable and unreliable it looks, the better.
Even if he wanted to compete with his eldest brother, the prince had to consider whether his money would be wasted when he saw him like this.
The other brothers are now rich, with 230,000 taels of silver allocated to the household, but the prince does not.
hey-hey!
The prince is the future owner of the East Palace and the palace. He does not have to divide households like other adult princes, so naturally he does not receive this money.
In addition to the dowry of the Queen of the Yuan Dynasty, what he had in his hands was the "worship" of the Hesheli family.
When he marries the princess, he should have another share of the Gualjia family.
Even if your hands are not nervous, this is not a small amount of money.
It's better to let him think about it and be lenient, and don't even think about competing with the elder brother...

Yuqing Palace, Prince's Study Room.
Listening to the eunuch's report, the prince felt a little embarrassed.
One hundred thousand taels!
The silver that the eldest elder brother and the fourth elder brother lent to the ninth elder brother were actually one hundred thousand taels each!
Brother Ninth is so brave. How much money has been removed from the inner treasury?
The prince thought more than others.
Others only thought that Jiangnan was using the money, but the prince thought of using the inner treasury.
I am still in such a hurry to raise money at the end of the year, and there is nothing else to do except make up for the shortfall.
Otherwise, just that cashmere weaving factory is short of money, and next to it is Jiangning Weaving.
Cao Yin has been in Jiangnan for more than ten years and has become a local snake. Where can he not raise hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to make up for it?
There is no other place but the inner treasury.
For this reason, he was very dissatisfied with Brother Jiu.
It is too greedy to be the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the small business is owned by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. If you encounter a big profit, it will be in your own name.
It's good now. If the money is spread out, it won't come back. I know I'm in a hurry.
He glanced in the direction of Qianqing Palace. Did Khan Amma know about this?
Then he smiled bitterly, there are eyes everywhere in this palace, what can be hidden from Khan Ama?
After all, he is the youngest son of a beloved concubine, so he can just make up for it, and there is no intention to pursue it.
Not only the eldest brother and the fourth elder brother moved, but also the fifth elder brother, seventh elder brother, eighth elder brother, and third elder brother also entered the palace one after another.
They should all be set up.
No one is stupid.
If we don’t express “brothers, friends, and brothers” at this time, when will we express it?
The prince knew that if he wanted to maintain his dignity at this time, he should add 20,000 to the 100,000 taels to suppress the elder brother.
This saves the eldest brother from having to act like an elder brother all day long and being so irritating to others.
But……
He doesn’t have 120,000 taels on hand!
Earlier there were two hundred thousand taels.
However, Li Gege's property was taken away by the Crown Princess before. Li Gege was crying and wiping away her tears, which was pitiful. The Crown Prince gave her 20,000 taels of banknotes and let her build a private house.
He took out half of the remaining silver and asked people to buy two large stores in Baoding, intending to give it to Akedun and his second brother.
As a result, he had less than one hundred thousand taels left on hand.
If after the New Year, the "Nian Jing" from before the year comes in, there will be more.
Now, if you want to raise 120,000 yuan, you have to talk to the Crown Princess.
But if a person named Guarjia knew that the prince borrowed money from his wife's dowry, what would he think of him?
He thought for a while, took a pen and paper, and wrote a letter to Cao Yin, hoping to get 50,000 taels from him.
There is nothing we can do about this. With such a large population in Yuqing Palace, who knows where the money can be used.
Brother Jiu has taken on so much foreign debt all at once, and it will take him who knows how many years to pay it back.
If he didn't keep any spare money, would he be too shameless to borrow it from others when he needed the money?
Should the remaining banknotes be prepared for Brother Jiu, 50,000 taels, or 70,000...

The third update will be very late, everyone will watch it tomorrow morning, ^_^.
