Wen Jin thought there was something else wrong with Xiaokui.
Who knew she wanted to change her last name...
"The former Li Kui is dead!" Xiao Kui looked at Wen Jin with burning eyes, "I no longer have anything to do with the Li family. I beg the master to accept me as a domestic slave."
Domestic slaves have the honor of being given a surname by their master.
In this way, she can change her surname to Wen.
Wen Jin asked Yingxiang to spread paper and grind ink.
She picked up her pen and wrote the words "Wen Xiaokui".
It was just a name change, and Xiaokui actually cried with excitement.
"The princess is the reborn parent of this slave! It is a gift to this slave that she can be reborn!"
Wen Jin told him to go to the Yamen in Fengchun to change Xiaokui's household registration. After changing her household registration, she would no longer have anything to do with the Li family or Baihualou.
Xiaokui and Yingxiang hugged each other and cried.
Wen Jin watched the two girls struggling and crying...
There was one thing she wanted to do more and more urgently!
"Your Majesty..."
On the way back to the palace, in a gently swaying carriage.
Wen Jin looked at Xiao Yuchen with shining eyes.
Xiao Yuchen was slightly startled, "Huh?"
He had a premonition that...she wanted to ask him for something.
Facing her gaze, Xiao Yuchen felt that even if she wanted his life... he would be willing to hold it in front of her with his own hands.
"I want to ask you a favor..."
"you say."
"I heard that the royal garden, Furong Garden, covers a vast area, is magnificent, and is extremely gorgeous." Wen Jin said, "I want to rent the Furong Garden for three days, around New Year's Eve."
That's it?
Xiao Yuchen was stunned, did she need to take this matter so seriously?
"The Royal Garden is not for rent. If you want to use it to hold a banquet, I'll ask Father about it," Xiao Yuchen said.
He thought it was because the princess held a banquet that made her unhappy.
Therefore, she wants to use a larger and more luxurious place to hold banquets to overshadow the crown princess.
Although...it doesn't quite fit.
But as long as she wanted to, Xiao Yuchen was willing to do it despite the infamy and risks.
"No. It must be rented. Prince Huai's Mansion can pay the rent to the emperor's private treasury." Wen Jin said.
Xiao Yuchen frowned, "Why is this?"
You don’t have to come here for free, do you have to pay rent? How much money can you burn?
The point is, is there no precedent for this? I’ve never heard of the Royal Garden being rented out!
"I want to borrow it for commercial use. I don't have to pay rent and just rely on favors. There will be various restrictions.
"If you pay the money, you will be relatively free. Even if it is put into commercial use, you have to say something ugly beforehand."
In a dimly lit carriage.
Wen Jin's eyes were shining brightly, as if what she was about to do was something extremely important.
"Commercial use?" Xiao Yuchen took a breath.
Leasing a royal garden is unprecedented.
She actually wanted to borrow it for commercial use...
"I'll go find my father and ask him about it tomorrow morning," Xiao Yuchen said.
I hope he won't be beaten to death by his father.
"If my father scolds me with his rod, will you heal me?"
His requirements are not high, just let him live in Qinghe Residence!
Wen Jin looked at him with a half-smile but not a smile, "Don't wait to say it privately when Father is alone. Aren't there ministers wishing Father New Year's greetings? Say it while there are many ministers!"
Xiao Yuchen:......
Is he afraid that his father won't hit him hard enough? Just pick a time when there are a lot of people to touch the tiger’s butt?
"Are you serious?" Xiao Yuchen looked at her.
Doesn't she want to be a widow because she has no hope of leaving?
Wen Jin nodded, "Some things can't be negotiated just because the benefits given are not enough. Or they don't see clearly the huge benefits contained in them."
Xiao Yuchen was slightly startled...
The huge benefits contained in it?
If he helped her handle this matter, would she trust him more? Rely on him more?
This benefit is big enough for him! Tempting enough!
"Okay! My husband will definitely do it for you!" Xiao Yuchen was filled with pride.
Even Wen Jin was stunned by his arrogance.
Xiao Yuchen is in charge of the Imperial City Department. He certainly knows which time every day there are the most ministers going to pay New Year's greetings to the emperor and the busiest time.
The next day, he followed Wen Jin's instructions and went to the palace to ask for an audience at a time when there were many people.
The imperial study room was warm.
There is less distance between the emperor and his ministers.
More of a friend-like intimacy.
The emperor and his ministers were talking about plans to build water conservancy projects and increase troops to the border after spring, when Xiao Yuchen came.
Xiao Yuchen saluted and also paid New Year greetings to the emperor and said some auspicious words.
Soon, he got to the point.
"My son wants to rent Furong Garden." Xiao Yuchen said.
The emperor and ministers all looked at him suspiciously, "You have your own villa, why are you using the hibiscus garden?"
“The Hibiscus Garden is bigger, and it’s also free when you’re idle. Cleaning and maintaining it all day long doesn’t cost money, either?
"I will rent it for three days, one day before and after Xiaonian," Xiao Yuchen said.
The emperor was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Your salary is too much, do you have a fever?
"It just so happens that we need to build water conservancy projects in the spring and send more troops to the frontiers. It all costs money! Since you have a lot of salary, use it to support the national treasury!"
Xiao Yuchen said: "The national treasury has a lot of expenditures, and the abilities of the ministers are limited!
"But by borrowing my father's garden, I can contribute to my father's private treasury.
"Isn't it time to celebrate the New Year? I can also send big red envelopes to all the ministers!
"What do you ministers think?"
When everyone heard this, they wondered if His Royal Highness, King Huai, could increase their income by renting the royal garden.
What a great feeling!
"Wonderful! Your Majesty, this is a wonderful move!"
"As long as people take inventory of the objects in the royal garden, after renting them, they must not be missing, and the environment must not be dirty or messy.
“After use, we have to restore it to its original condition, otherwise we will pay compensation one by one.
"Whether it's father and son, or monarch or minister, if you set the rules first, you won't be afraid of hurting your feelings afterwards! It can also fill the emperor's treasury, which is a good thing!"
The atmosphere was relaxed and everyone cheered.
The emperor looked at Xiao Yuchen, he still didn't understand.
The younger son wants to borrow it from him, and given his love for his younger son, he may not lend it to him.
Why is he talking about money? Still renting?
Judging from his tone, the amount of money he is willing to pay is quite a lot?
"What are you renting the Furong Garden for? And for three days?" the emperor asked.
Xiao Yuchen shook his head, "I don't know, Jin'er wants to use it. She said it is for commercial use, so she must pay and it must be a lease."
As soon as these words came out, the king and his ministers fell silent.
What does it mean that children are affectionate but heroes are short-tempered?
That is, if the God of War, King Huai, doesn’t love you, then that’s it.
When he fell in love, all his ingenuity, tactics, and brains were eaten by dogs.
Do you hear what he said? It turned out to be because the pregnant princess wanted to use it!
And he didn’t even know what it was for, so he kept coming to ask for it!
The emperor held his forehead... feeling tired.
His son used to look down on Wen Jin, so he was worried for him.
His son is now obsessed with Wen Jin, and he is also anxious...
Xiao Yuchen saw that the ministers seemed to be attacking him for "sex makes him stupid".
He was not in a hurry, he was prepared and spoke first.
"One thousand taels a day," Xiao Yuchen said, "gold."
hiss……
Ho...
A gasp!
His Royal Highness King Huai is indeed very wealthy!
The annual salary of a first-grade official is only six hundred and sixty-five taels of silver, plus rice.
Of course, this is the basic salary. We won’t mention additional rewards and gray income...
A thousand taels of gold a day, gold! What concept?
Spending their ten years of savings in three days? For some people, it’s more than thirty years!
