A million taels?

When Empress Dowager Min heard the news, she was also shocked.

The daughter-in-law's dowry is extremely rich, and the Empress Dowager Min has long known about it. However, as a mother-in-law, Empress Dowager Min is quite conscious, and never asks her daughter-in-law how many private rooms she has, let alone moves her idea to her daughter-in-law to marry.

Unexpectedly, Gu Wanning was so generous and took so many silver taels!

Empress Dowager Min couldn't sit still, and immediately went to the Jiaofang Palace.

It has been a few days since Gu Wanning diagnosed the happy pulse, and all the palace affairs were handed over to the Empress Dowager Min, and the chief attendants and female officials in the palace all entered and exited Cining Palace. The lively Jiaofang Hall in the past suddenly stopped a lot.

The palace maid deliberately lowered the footsteps, and no one whispered. The huge pepper room hall is very quiet.

Empress Dowager Min arrived, and the palace maid was busy going in to spread the word, and it was Chen Yueniang who came out.

Empress Dowager Min swept her eyes and asked with a casual smile: "This is strange." Linlang and Linglong are not here today. ”

Chen Yueniang was blessed, pursed her lips and smiled: "It's a coincidence." The mother only diagnosed the happy pulse, and the two of them also had good news. The mother took pity on the two of them and ordered them to raise the baby in the house. You don't have to go out on an errand if you have nothing to do. ”

Linlang Linglong is Gu Wanning's confidant, Gu Guanning has been married to Xiao Xu for ten years, and Empress Dowager Min is also very familiar with Linlang Linglong. Wen Yan smiled happily: "This is good news. Neither of them is too young, and it is time to have children. ”

After thinking for a while, he asked: "The two of them can't be on duty, is there enough manpower around Guan Ning?" Do you want to pick a few more palace maids to enter the Jiaofang Palace?"

Chen Yueniang deserved quite tactfully: "It's not necessary." There are enough people in the Jiaofang Palace. Moreover, the mother is not used to being served by others. It is enough to have slaves and coral pearls. ”

It's not that I can't believe the Empress Dowager Min. It's just that Gu Wanning is like this by nature, and the people who stay by her side and serve must be completely loyal and reliable.

Empress Dowager Min didn't care, and said with a smile: "That's fine." What about the people of Guanning?"

"The mother is a little sleepy, and she is taking a nap in the bedroom, and the slave and maid will go in and pass the ......"

"No need. Empress Dowager Min interrupted Chen Yueniang without thinking: "Let her rest for a long time." It doesn't hurt to sit down for a while and wait. ”

……

Gu Wanning slept for more than an hour before waking up.

Liuli and Yingluo neatly stepped forward to wait for the change of clothes, while reporting: "The Queen Mother is waiting for her mother outside, and she has been waiting for half an hour." ”

Gu Wanning's mind suddenly sobered up a little, and he said angrily: "Why didn't you wake me up earlier." ”

The slave wanted to wake up the mother, but the queen mother didn't allow it. It is said that it is to let the mother have a good rest. Yingluo replied helplessly: "The slave doesn't dare to disobey the Queen Mother's orders." ”

Liuli immediately answered: "Yes, slaves and maids can't disobey the order of the Queen Mother." ”

A pair of flamboyant clever ghosts!

Gu Wanning glared at the two of them, with a little smile in his eyes: "Linlang and Linglong are pregnant, so I let the two of you replace them." If you do not behave well, this palace will punish you to go to the pulp washing room. ”

Liuli and Yingluo, who are familiar with her temper, are naturally not afraid, and continue to plead guilty with a smile.

After a few words, Gu Wanning was already dressed neatly.

"Mother Lao has been waiting for a long time. Seeing the Empress Dowager Min, Gu Wanning first apologized and confessed: "In the future, when the queen mother comes to the Jiaofang Palace, she will let the slave call me." ”

Empress Dowager Min immediately said: "If there are happy people, they should have rested more." I'm fine, and it's okay to wait a while. ”

"No matter what, there is no reason to let the mother-in-law wait for the daughter-in-law. If this spreads, it will inevitably end up with a reputation for disrespecting elders. Gu Guanning said softly.

Empress Dowager Min said confidently: "I don't mind at all as an elder, who dares to talk like this!"

In the tone, the domineering spirit of the queen mother was revealed.

Gu Wanning smiled dumbly, and his heart was warm.

Empress Dowager Min quickly got to the point: "Guan Ning, I only found out today that you actually donated all your private body to military salary! Wouldn't it be too wronged for you to do this!"

Gu Guanning said lightly: "My daughter-in-law only donated thirty percent of her private house!"

Empress Dowager Min: "......"

The daughter-in-law is so rich......

No, now is not the time to think about that.

Empress Dowager Min fixed her mind and said: "For such a big matter, you should always discuss it with Ah Xu." ”

Gu Wanning chuckled: "He naturally knew it for a long time." ”

Empress Dowager Min: "......"

The son is also too easy-going......

"It's always not nice to use a wife's dowry. Empress Dowager Min didn't have so many twists and turns, and soon said in her heart: "With so many pairs of eyes inside and outside the court, he has to take care of his face as a son of heaven." ”

Therefore, what Empress Dowager Min really feels sorry for is her son.

Gu Wanning didn't mind, and said with a slight smile: "My daughter-in-law has a good reputation, and it is also a matter of shame to the emperor." Moreover, husband and wife are one, and there is no distinction between each other. My dowry private house will not be donated to the treasury, and it will be left to Gillian's sisters and brothers in the future. If that's the case, what's the point of sooner rather than later?"

That's just as well.

Anyway, it is the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family, and the private house will always be left to the descendants of the Xiao family in the future.

Empress Dowager Min was easily persuaded, and quickly smiled: "You are so generous, I can't be stingy as a mother." However, my private room is not as good as yours, so I can barely make up 300,000 taels!"

Gu Wanning said with a smile: "How can you make the queen mother break the money like this." If the queen mother has a heart, she will give 100,000 taels to add glory to the emperor. ”

"How can this work!" Gu Wanning said, but it strengthened Empress Dowager Min's determination. Empress Dowager Min thought about it and changed her words again: "I'll add another 100,000 taels to make up 400,000 taels." ”

Gu Wanning smiled.

She didn't do it on purpose, but it seemed like she was retreating.

Empress Dowager Min couldn't help laughing: "People's minds are really strange. If someone asks me to come out with so much money, I may not be willing to do it. If you refuse, I have to do it. ”

……

Gu Guanning is well versed in people's hearts, or if he doesn't make a move, he will be vigorous and well-known.

Within half a day, Empress Gu's donation of one million taels of silver as military pay spread throughout the capital. Even the people in the streets and alleys have heard of it.

For a while, everyone was moved, and their mouths were full of praise.

"The queen mother is so generous that she donated all her private money. ”

"Daqin has such a queen, it is really blessed. ”

"In this world, only Queen Gu is worthy of sitting in the middle palace. ”

"Exactly. The emperor favors the queen alone, and it should be. With such a queen, where can other women still get into the eyes of the emperor. ”

…… Gu Guanning's reputation also quickly climbed to the top.

As for Gu Wanning's biological mother's unchastity, at this time, no one mentions it anymore. Even if someone occasionally wants to mention it, they will be scolded by the crowd around them and shut up.
