King Tao was tired from all the tossing and lay flat on his back in the carriage, looking at the roof of the carriage with dull eyes.
In terms of money, he was actually very wealthy.
The imperial concubine's father was the Minister of Civil Affairs and her brother was the magistrate of Suzhou. She had never been short of money.
In order to make it easier for the imperial concubine to take care of things in the palace, her family would take advantage of the opportunity to visit the palace every quarter and bring snacks to the palace to visit the imperial concubine, and the fillings of these snacks were large-value banknotes.
Back then, the imperial concubine seemed to know that she would die suddenly. During that time, she kept asking for money from her parents' family.
As for these banknotes, they were eventually sewn into King Xi's underwear by the imperial concubine.
It can be said that the imperial concubine really raised Prince Xie as her son.
During that time, the imperial concubine claimed that King Tan had a fever and detained him in the room without letting him out.
And he was reminded every day that he could only wear underpants when sleeping every night and put two sets of underwear by the bedside.
Whenever he hears any strange movement in the palace, he wears the quilted inner clothes.
If the weather is calm, keep your thick undershirt properly and make sure it doesn't get dirty or wrinkled, let alone get wet.
If there is any movement in the palace during the day, you must go back and change your inner clothes as soon as possible, and you must not tell anyone the secret.
At that time, King Xi seemed to understand what he heard. He only knew that his mother-in-law would not let him go out to play, and she was depressed for a long time!
The imperial concubine's worries were indeed correct. One night, she died suddenly.
Hearing the shouts outside, King Tao felt that his mind went blank. He only remembered that he had just put on his clothes when a group of eunuchs rushed in.
Apart from the clothes on his body, he couldn't even take away his previous toys.
He still treasures that inner garment properly. Although he doesn't know how much silver is in it, King Xi knows that it is all the imperial concubine Aniang can give him.
Not long after the death of the imperial concubine, the housekeeper came to him.
King Tan always felt that the steward and the imperial concubine knew each other, because the steward knew his affairs very well.
When he was a child, he was always reminded from the side that he must not spend the money until it was time to go to the fiefdom.
But in the past two years, the housekeeper rarely mentioned this matter.
Speaking of which, he failed to live up to expectations and had no official position. Although he was the second son, he was still spending the rewards from the palace and occasionally receiving pocket money from the queen.
The people in the capital were all human beings, and they could clearly see that the queen didn't like him, and she would not suffer the consequences of marrying her daughter to him.
People with high status look down on him, and people with low status dare not marry the prince? It is really difficult for his wife to marry!
King Tao covered his face with his hands and quietly wiped away his tears: Mother, you left too early? The child wants to go to the fiefdom!
The butler sighed: "Your Majesty, next time you want me to help you find a way, just tell me directly? There is no need to call me Imperial Concubine."
King Tan asked doubtfully: "Did I just cry?"
The housekeeper looked up at the sky: "Just now, a salesman was so frightened by your voice that he fell down and lost his teeth."
King Tan imitated the butler and sighed: "I feel the same way, and feel bitter in my heart!"
This time, the housekeeper did not complain about King Tan in his heart. Instead, he replied to King Tan seriously: "Your Majesty, why don't you get married to the Marquis of Huaiyin? His family's title is enough, and there are two girls." Sooner or later you will rise, and you will definitely not suffer.
Moreover, his family is now weak, so no one will stop this marriage. "
Did he figure it out today? The eldest and second girls of the Lan family are really number two.
As for the third girl...it’s hard to describe in words!
King Tan thought about it seriously. Thinking of Jin Qing's two-meter-tall body and brutal methods, he felt a chill on the back of his head. What would he do if he married a woman like that? Beat him three times a day.
Thinking of Lan Ruyun who scolded people to shame? King Tao: "..." Didn't the damn fat man want to kill him?
Perhaps knowing that Prince Xin was thinking wrongly, the housekeeper sighed: "Your Majesty, the person I'm talking to is Lan Ruyu, the second daughter of the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion. That girl is the most suitable for the Prince."
Although he didn't see Lan Ruyu with his own eyes, the title of the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion was here, and he also saw some of Lan Er's skills. Such a scheming girl was just right for his unscrupulous prince, but he didn't know that the girl had There is no such meaning.
King Tan: "..." He seemed to have been scolded again.
This time, before Prince Tan could take action, the housekeeper spoke first and said, "Your Majesty, actually it is not easy to marry the second girl of the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion. We have to prepare a lot of things."
After the conversation suddenly turned serious, King Tan's expression also became serious: "You tell me." In fact, he also thought it would be good to go to the Lan family girl, so that he would not have to pay for weapons in the future!
For his current situation, marrying a wife is not because of feelings, but because Lan Ruyu is just right for him at this time!
After the housekeeper's voice became serious, the hoarse voice he originally pretended to be a little broken: "You need to prepare more money and gold sore medicine, but if you have enough money, the gold sore medicine can be used later." The eldest lady of the Lan family looked at it. He seems quite greedy for money. I guess as long as he has enough money, he won't be beaten out by Miss Lan.
However, in the future, if his prince wants to marry a concubine, have a concubine, and raise a thin horse...
It seems that he still needs to prepare some golden sore medicine for his prince.
King Tao understood the meaning of the butler's words: "..." I'd better fight with you!
Here, King Tan and his steward were thinking about proposing marriage to the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion, while on the other side, things were exploding in the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion.
Wu Zhenfeng was the backbone of the Zhenguo Palace. Now something happened to Wu Zhenfeng, and his eldest son Wu Pinggui has also fallen into a coma. The only people who can make decisions are the female family members and a few unworthy bastards in the palace.
In the end, the Duke of Lao Zhen stood up with a golden dragon-headed cane and lectured those bastards with shrunken heads: "We in the Wu family only have men who died in battle, not cowards who were beaten to the ground. All of you are Go back and change clothes for me.
Then ask the housekeeper to go to the military camp and ask the second brother to bring 300 armored guards from the field battalion, carry crossbows on their backs, and push two three-bow bed crossbow carts to wait at the door of the Lan family boy's house. I will let them know today. , who they can’t afford to offend. "
Xu Shi was so angry that the old Duke of Zhen took two violent breaths and pointed to the old lady of Duke Zhen beside him: "Go and put on your official uniform, and go into the palace with your daughter-in-law and take my sign to report to the Queen. The matter must be resolved by our own government. Afterwards, I will definitely go to the palace in person to plead guilty to the emperor."
Since he was ready to plead guilty, that is to say, he must commit today's crime, and he must make the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion pay the price.
Otherwise, how could the face of his government be saved!
After hearing the impassioned words of the Duke of Laozhen, everyone in the room raised their arms with blood and shouted: "Revenge, revenge, revenge!"
The eyes of the Duke of Laozhen exuded a deep chill: Kill!
