Looking at the high-spirited Huang Qiong in front of her, Princess Jincheng decided to give King Teng and King Song a good beating after going back. At least let them be able to stay on their own terms in the future. Just thinking about the virtuous concubine in the palace gave Princess Jincheng another headache. Princess Jincheng was not completely ignorant of the ambitions of that concubine. With that Concubine De here, can I really persuade the King of Song?
And so did King Teng, after he harassed Huang Qiong's mansion last time and was beaten a few times by himself. Princess Jincheng has now felt that Prince Teng is much alienated from her. Some words may only be heard on the surface, but in the heart one does not take them seriously, and some even do so in a positive and negative way. I heard that even his mother tried to persuade him to stop, but he was very contradictory and never entered the palace again.
This is true for his own mother, and how can he really restrain his sixth brother, whose ambition is getting bigger and bigger, but whose talent is simply unable to support his ambition? Especially when behind him, there were Queen Song's mother and son who were desperately trying to encourage him to come forward to compete with Huang Qiong in the ring. Just as my ninth brother said, my sixth brother is so stupid and ignorant that he doesn't even know he has become a knife in other people's hands.
She was even a little complacent, thinking that King Song and the concubines behind King Song were sincerely supporting him in his fight for the crown prince position. Thinking of this, Princess Jincheng couldn't help but sigh. She now had a feeling that both Prince Teng and Prince Song would eventually be destroyed by the ambitious Concubine De, who had high ambitions but low abilities, and whose talents were simply not enough to support her own ambitions.
Perhaps those who will be buried with her ambition in the future will not only be their mother and son, but also Prince Teng, as well as her family, which is known as the first civil servant family in the dynasty. It seems that the family is still prosperous, but in fact, the old man has begun to neglect the family and even ignore it to a certain extent. In the past ten years, the old man who was the chief examiner of the general examination has been stubborn. Even before he became an official, he never presided over an examination.
As for the two sons, although the eldest son has a high position, he is just a minister of Sinong Temple with little real power. The other one was originally appointed as the prefect of Jiangnan, but after the death of Queen Daxing last year, he was transferred from such a position of real power as the prefect of the prosperous place of Jiangnan to Shandong Road and served as a left-hand political participant. Although it seems that he has been promoted to the third level, his real power is gone.
The old man in their family, Concubine De's father, is now terminally ill. Maybe the old man is just waiting for the day when he dies. Looking at the energetic Huang Qiong in front of her, she thought of King Teng and King Song, as well as Concubine De, who was behind all this. If this continued, it might not end well, and Princess Jincheng felt weak in her heart.
Even if he knew that the second king would be unlucky in the future, he would be unlucky to himself, and now he was desperately seeking death. But these two people were, after all, the younger brothers he raised. How could she really have the heart to look at them and ignore them? Princess Jincheng knew that the only thing she could do now was to think of a way to persuade the two younger brothers to stop and not continue to seek death. This could be considered as her last act.
As the ninth younger brother, he could even tolerate the absurd King Yong, and even recommended him to take over the job. Maybe his mind is much broader than he thought. If that day comes, I can only hope that his mind can continue to be preserved, and that he can keep the two kings, and maybe their whole family alive. No matter how much she does, as a woman who cannot do politics, she can only resign herself to fate.
As for Princess Jincheng's thoughts at the moment, she is persuading King Yong to take this job, and she is thinking that King Yong will not live up to expectations. How can Huang Qiong, who is timid about even such a big deal, know? King Yong, who was scolded by Huang Qiong and made sullen, was finally persuaded by Huang Qiong. Although he still hesitated in his heart, he finally nodded.
As for Huang Qiong's request to stay away from drinking and sex, King Yong had no choice but to agree. After meeting this guy and agreeing to his request, he looked downcast. Huang Qiong could only shake his head helplessly, wondering if recommending this guy would become his biggest failure since he came to this era. I don’t even know if this guy can really do it.
Huang Qiong, who was really worried, gritted his teeth and said: "As long as you agree to these two requests of my little brother, you can take all the women you are secretly raising outside back to your house. If there are any of them, you want to give them a I can also promise you the title. As for He Mansion and Sister-in-law Seven, I will intercede on your behalf. In addition, I will have someone select some Dali women for you to send over in a while. "
Huang Qiong, who really didn't believe that this guy could really give up these two most tempting things in the world, simply came to a place where it was better to be sparse than to block. If you let this guy go hunting wild food all day long, someone will take advantage of him sooner or later. For a person like Yong Wang who is used to being dissolute, blindly blocking him will not make him become honest at all, but will only make him more rebellious.
Rather than letting him hunt for wild food outside, it would be better to let his group of warblers tie him up in the house. Just thinking about how to convince the He family gave Huang Qiong another headache. The last time, I just postponed Prince Yong's wedding, but I was crippled by Mrs. He, and made me jump all over the place. If I try to persuade him again, let the He family tolerate King Yong's romantic problems.
That old lady He, that dragon-headed crutch, couldn't just hit her directly? There are those grandmothers and mothers in the world who are willing to let their children share a husband with other women. And not with one woman, but with a whole bunch of them. What's more, the He family still has such a family rule? Especially the mother of my seventh sister-in-law, who still has such a relationship with me.
Just when Huang Qiong was having a headache trying to convince the He family. King Yong over there, his eyes lit up after hearing Huang Qiong's promise. His attitude quickly changed from the original reluctance to patting his chest and promising that Mo Kouzi would definitely assist the old man and take over the overseas trade matter. I will never let the old man and the ninth brother down.
King Yong changed his face so quickly that Huang Qiong couldn't help but be stunned. Immediately, Huang Qiong and Princess Jincheng could only look at each other and smile bitterly. Huang Qiong once again doubted whether his original approach was correct. It's just that the words have been spoken, and the old man has already agreed, and it's too late to regret it now.
In desperation, Huang Qiong thought of someone. After hesitating for a while, it was more reliable to transfer Ma Rui back and assign him to assist or monitor him. A few days after his child was one month old, Ma Rui came to Beijing quietly. In addition to having a long secret conversation with Huang Qiong, he also met Lin Hanyan. I saw Lin Hanyan living a good life under Huang Qiong's protection.
Although I can see that there is something not right about the relationship between Lin Hanyan and the British King. But Ma Rui, who was finally relieved, didn't care. He himself comes from a family of businessmen, and is not the kind of old-fashioned person who was taught by scholars. I didn't pay much attention to this kind of thing. What he was more concerned about was whether Huang Qiong was caring about King Jing's family.
The well-being of his former mistress, Lin Hanyan, was what he valued most. After meeting Lin Hanyan and talking to Lin Hanyan alone for half an hour. Although there were King Jing's last words, Ma Rui had been stubborn and refused to really commit to Huang Qiong, and was always waiting and watching. When he saw Huang Qiong, he knelt down and kowtowed three times. The title was changed directly from the original King of England to Master.
The account books that King Jing smuggled to Northern Liao, Goryeo, and Japan, which had been kept by him, were also handed over to Huang Qiong. However, Huang Qiong did not look at the account book he handed over, and clearly told him that he would keep 30% of the money as a reward for his travels over the years. Except for leaving 20% of the rest for Lin Hanyan, the rest remains in his hands for the time being.
Thirty percent of it will be divided equally among Prince Jing and his daughter at an appropriate time in the future. The remaining 20% will be placed in his hands for the time being. As for when to use it and how to use it at that time, let Ma Rui listen to his own news. However, Huang Qiong talked to him about the imperial court's intention to take back the power of overseas trade. He also clearly told him not to do smuggling in the future.
He established a trading house and openly participated in overseas trade. As for the capital, Ma Rui contributed 30%, accounting for 30%. 10% of the 20% inheritance left by King Lin Hanyan and King Jing was invested in this business as capital, and he was still considered a 20% share. Of the portion left for Prince Jing and his daughter, 10% was invested in it, which was regarded as occupying 10%.
The rest of the shortfall will be invested by the British royal family, one hundred thousand dollars, to occupy the other four elements. Huang Qiong's intention in doing this was obvious, that is, to push Ma Rui out to fight in the ring. The secret power of Guilin County Prince's Mansion in Jiangnan is now extremely large. The big merchants in the south of the Yangtze River have been relying on the Guilin County Prince's Mansion for their survival for many years and are extremely afraid of the Guilin County Prince's Mansion.
The imperial court took over the power of trade, and these merchants may not dare to openly support the imperial court at the risk of offending the prince of Guilin. Even if they have the right to do business overseas, they have been coveting it for hundreds of years. But in front of the behemoth Guilin County Prince's Palace, they may not really dare to openly stand up to cooperate with the court and do business with those merchants from other vassals.
If I don't introduce someone to take the lead, I'm afraid that the old man's thoughts may just go astray. As for whether Ma Rui can do this, Huang Qiong is still quite confident. He had chatted with Lin Hanyan about this person more than once. Although Lin Hanyan only met this person twice, he was full of praise for him. Lin Hanyan even told him directly that if Ma Rui could be used for him.
Even if it means giving up those shady businesses and switching to honest business. As the King of England, he will never worry about money in his life. If the imperial court could make an exception and appoint Ma Rui as the Minister of Household Affairs, the imperial court's annual income would not be so difficult. Although Lin Hanyan said that she and King Jing had a mutual respect for each other, King Jing always respected her and kept most things from her.
Therefore, Lin Hanyan still knows very well about Ma Rui's character and abilities. Therefore, as early as when the old man made up his mind to take back the power of overseas trade, Huang Qiong had his mind set on Ma Rui. As for why the shares should be divided in this way, Huang Qiong's idea is simpler. There is no use keeping money, it can only become dead money. Only letting money make money is the real hard truth.
And the 40% he occupies is not all reserved for himself. One percent of it was prepared for King Yong. In addition to wanting to win over King Yong, he also didn’t want King Yong to make mistakes regarding money. Another reason is that he really can't get it now. But if you piece it all together, you can get up to 70,000 strings at most. Just for this, I have to take out the rewards given to several children by the mother.
All the money that the old man rewarded for the family division can be put into it. Although I don’t know what the real money source of that guy Yong Wang is, I have never frowned on buying a Persian dancer from this guy and spending a lot of money on a big gamble. Huang Qiong knew that this guy was definitely not short of money. But tens of thousands of dollars is probably still a small thing for my seventh brother.
