"I heard that my mother's dowry was made of stones. Did the British government make up for it later?"
"No, but I heard that the extra makeup given by Mrs. Wen Sihou's friend is already a huge fortune."
"Is my mother's friend so rich?"
Jiang Yuhuan began to think about how such a generous dowry could be so advantageous to those in Wensihou Mansion.
She won't always be the princess of the county, it's too dangerous to be around Fu Shiju.
When she was done with what she wanted to do, she ran away.
But to survive in this era, she must have money.
Now the only thing she can rely on is the dowry from the original owner's mother.
Of course, she couldn't get it for free.
You can borrow the dowry as start-up capital and then pay the money back when you earn money.
She remembered that the original owner had a younger brother, and the original owner's mother died in childbirth.
In exchange for taking care of the original owner's biological brother, she could temporarily borrow the dowry.
The more Jiang Yuhuan thought about it, the more feasible it became for him, so he said, "I'm going to the Hou Mansion, do you want to go?"
"What are you doing in the Marquis' Mansion? You don't have much time left."
"I know, I know." Jiang Yuhuan felt that there was no difference between Fu Shilu and Zhou Bapi at this moment.
But she couldn't say that she went to the Marquis Mansion to ask for a dowry in order to save money for her trip.
"I'll go back and see my brother."
Fu Shichang looked at her like she was a fool. Jiang Yuhuan felt insulted and became angry instantly, "What's your look!"
"Your brother is studying in Jinzhou."
Jiang Yuhuan was startled, "Why do you want to go to Jinzhou to study?"
"I don't know. But you were originally going to be sent to Jinzhou. It was because of this news that I carried you into the prince's palace as a concubine."
Jiang Yuhuan suddenly realized, "Send all the children of the first wife away to make room for Princess Zhaohua's children, right?"
She felt a little more resentful towards Jiang Qiao in her heart, and felt that her mother was not worth it.
"The academy has a holiday every September, and he will return to Beijing at that time."
"September..."
It’s only July, and there are still two months left.
It doesn't matter, it won't have much impact in two months. At worst, when she is done, she will go directly to Jinzhou with her dowry.
"I'm not going, let's go back home."
——
Shuntian Mansion.
The case has reached a stalemate, and the complainants can tell in detail when they met Ning Zheng and Sun Qi, when they had sex with them, including where the moles on their bodies are.
But Ning Zheng and Sun Qi never admitted it and insisted that they were bribed. Otherwise, how could they have come to Shuntian Mansion to sue them together by such a coincidence.
Zhou Zhe had a headache and decided to retry the case on a different date due to insufficient evidence.
The case went unsolved, and the accusers became angry and approached Sanqi one after another.
"Tell them to wait at home, and within three days, someone will come to them. But also remind them that if they want to survive, they should pinch their own life-saving charms and don't hand them over so quickly. Do they want money or money? If they want to gamble on glory and wealth, they can choose it themselves.”
The child in their belly is a life-saver.
Once the child is born, their life is in danger.
The safest thing is to give birth to a child and run away with the money.
If you are not satisfied with a little money and want permanent wealth, then it depends on whether you have the ability.
Those who are willing to beat the drum and redress the grievances basically have this idea, and some are looking for opportunities to retaliate. Those who are unwilling...
Some died the next day after being insulted, and some left because they had nowhere to go.
Duke Ning's Mansion.
"Quack doctor! Quack doctor!"
This was the first time that Ning Zheng got angry, and the first time that doctors gave almost the same answers.
After returning from Shuntian Mansion, everyone from Duke Ning's mansion gathered in Ning Zheng's room. One after another, the imperial doctors and doctors came, and some were snatched from the hands of the servants in Zuo Xiang's Mansion.
Ning Guogong's face became more and more gloomy. Finally, when Ning Zheng cursed again, he slapped his palm on the table, and the whole room fell silent for an instant.
"Send the doctor out."
Mrs. Prince Ningguo signaled to the nanny beside her to send him off, and screened away all the servants.
After the doctor sent him away, Ning Guogong spoke again, "Tell me what all this is about."
"Grandpa, haven't I already told you that it was Jiang Yuhuan who was scheming? Not only was she scheming against her eldest brother, but she was also plotting against her own sister."
Duke Ning Guo was not Ning Zhi, so he didn't believe Ning Zheng's statement.
Ning Zheng was able to do dirty things without telling so many people, and it was definitely not as simple as Jiang Yuhuan's calculation.
There is no enmity between them, so why should they be so cruel?
"to be honest!"
The voice was suddenly sharp, making Ning Zheng tremble in fright.
"Yes...it's the concubine."
Ning Zheng's eyes widened, "Brother, what are you talking about! Why does the Queen Mother..."
"Why don't you tell me everything quickly!"
"Jiang Yuhuan blocked the way of the concubine, and the concubine planned to get rid of her. I only know that someone will faint Jiang Yuhuan and lock her in a room in the guest house, and she will inhale the incense. At that time, only Sun Qi and I will She...she will die suddenly after that. That incense of love..."
Ning Zheng suddenly had an idea, "I know! It's Jiang Yuhuan! She was pretending to be drunk at the time. After knowing that we would go, she kept waiting outside the window. Later, she knocked us out and must have breathed the incense for us. That incense A woman who inhales it and has sex will die suddenly, and a man who inhales it and has sex will be equivalent to a sterilized person after that time."
Ning Zheng collapsed at the thought that he would have no heirs.
He slid down from the chair, walked to Duke Ning on his knees, and grabbed Duke Ning's clothes, "Grandpa, you must avenge your grandson! Your grandson cannot have no heirs! That's right! Those who complained today are filled with tears in their stomachs." They are my flesh and blood, take them back, leave the mother and leave the children. I will not be childless, no, no..."
Duke Ning Guo had a stern look on his face, "Did you really rape them?!"
"They seduced me first, how can it be considered rape?"
Ning Zheng's confident look made Ning Guogong angry, "You've been hiding it so well for so many years, why can't you keep pretending!"
Ning Zheng had always been the perfect heir in his mind, a gentleman, a clean and well-behaved man.
He also put a lot of effort into training him, but Jiang Yuhuan only used one move to make all his years of hard work go up in flames!
"It's all Jiang Yuhuan's fault. If it weren't for her, how could I have been exposed! How have I ever failed in so many years!"
Ning Zheng put all the mistakes on Jiang Yuhuan.
"When the concubine told you about this, why didn't you discuss it with us!"
"I thought it was just sleeping with a woman. It wasn't my first time. How could I know..."
Ning Guogong finally couldn't help it and kicked Ning Zheng in the heart.
"You bastard! If you open your mouth or shut up, you're sleeping with a woman!"
"Ah!" Mrs. Shizi exclaimed and hurriedly helped Ning Zheng up, "Dad! This is not Zheng'er's fault!"
"It's not his fault? He's so wrong! From today on, you don't have to come to my study. Jun'er, come to my study tomorrow. I have something to tell you."
Ning Jun looked at Ning Guogong in confusion, "Yes, grandfather."
Ning Guogong's words were like thunder exploding in Ning Zheng's ears. Regardless of the pain in his body, he pushed away the Crown Prince's wife and crawled forward to hug Ning Guogong's legs, "Grandfather, grandfather! I have an heir, I have an heir, you can't give up on me."
"You haven't figured out where you went wrong."
Duke Ning Guo kicked Ning Zheng away and left disappointed.
Ning Zheng had taken great pains to deceive him over the years, making him mistakenly think that Ning Zheng was some rare genius.
Now that I look at it, I see that he is just an idiot.
Ning Zheng and Ning Jun were both descendants of the prince's wife, Qi. Ning Zheng's reputation was ruined, but Ning Jun still had a chance.
The prince Ning Fu is confused. If he doesn't arrange everything well, how can Ning Guogong's palace survive.
He shook his head and slowly walked out of the room.
Mrs. Ning Guogong was extremely disappointed with Ning Zheng. Even now, he still cares about herself and does not care about the entire Duke Ning's palace because he is in huge trouble.
Concubine Sun is not a good person. If things go wrong, Duke Ningguo and his family will follow suit.
Not only that, I am afraid that no one will want to marry into Duke Ning's house in the future, and the girls in their house may not find any good families in a short time.
"Fu'er, as a father, you need to stand up and discipline your children well."
Ning Fu looked unconcerned, "Mom, Zheng'er is just ridiculous, it's not a big deal. In the future, it would be better to have more restraints on the affairs between men and women, why bother..."
"Idiot!" Mrs. Ning Guogong wanted to talk to Ning Fu patiently, but she didn't expect that he didn't realize the seriousness of the matter. She began to wonder if she and Ning Guogong had made the wrong choice when they originally chose who to be the crown prince?
But which family does not inherit the title by the eldest son?
She took a long breath, suppressed her anger, and warned him in a low voice, "If you continue to be so confused, your position as the heir apparent will come to an end!"
Ning Fu didn't care, "I didn't want to do it at first. The girl Su from the second brother's family is the queen, wouldn't it be more appropriate for him to be the heir apparent?"
Ning Cheng looked solemn, "Brother, don't make fun of me!"
"Your Majesty!" His wife wanted to cover his mouth.
"What are you talking about!" Mrs. Ning Guogong regretted staying and said these words, which was simply playing the piano to an ox.
She looked at Ning Cheng, "Watch your brother more."
Then he looked at the Crown Prince's wife and said, "I don't want you to fail at anything."
"Daughter-in-law should remember her mother's teachings."
After Mrs. Ning Guogong left, everyone in the second room also left, leaving only the prince's family in the room.
Ning Fu looked left and right and felt that nothing happened, so he left without even saying hello.
"Mom, you can't give up on me."
Mrs. Shizi helped him up and comforted him softly, "Mother knows, mother knows. Mother will ask your uncle to help and find more famous doctors to treat you."
"What if it can't be cured?"
"Fortunately, you still have an heir. Just in case, we have to arrange for those women as soon as possible. Once the child is born, we will keep it if it is definitely yours. By the way, which one of you two is the same as Jiang Li today... If You, we will bring you into the house as an aunt as soon as possible."
If Jiang Li is pregnant, the child's status will not be too low.
If Princess Zhaohua is willing to keep Jiang Li in her name, she will not be unable to become his wife.
Ms. Qi herself didn't realize that she had eliminated Ning Zheng from the heirs, otherwise she would not have considered Jiang Li.
"it's me."
"That's good." Mrs. Shizi breathed a sigh of relief. It would be best if Jiang Li was pregnant.
"Well. Then my reputation..."
Ning Zheng finally remembered the consequences of his affair being exposed. It was just that it was easy to ruin your reputation, but it was difficult to re-establish a good reputation.
Mrs. Shizi knew this truth well, but she couldn't tell the truth to Ning Zheng at the moment, so she comforted him and said, "As time goes by, you will forget."
Madam Prince comforted Ning Zheng and left with Ning Zhi and Ning Jun.
Before leaving, Ning Jun stood in front of Ning Zheng, "Brother, I...I will tell you everything I learned from my grandfather."
Ning Zheng's face suddenly changed drastically, and he got angry at Ning Jun, "Go away, I don't need your charity!"
"Zheng'er! Don't talk to your brother like that!"
Ning Zheng's scarlet eyes stared at Ning Jun, as if he wanted to tear him into pieces.
