109 Jingjing's dowry shook Chang'an, and the dowry was in turmoil

In the car sat a person from Zaoshan Village, Xiaoman Town, Qingzhou, and He Sanshan, who was over eighty years old and wrinkled, took his five sons and daughters to Qingwangfu for a wedding banquet.

Last year, they all met Li Bing and his wife and Li Yunxiao in their hometown, and knew that He Qing and Kong Ye had such good in-laws, and they were happy for them.

At dusk, the convoy finally arrived at Qingwang's Mansion, and He Jingxin took the second housekeeper Zhao Sheben to greet him at the main gate and invited all the villagers in.

He Sanshan's family is not the first time to come back to Qingwangfu, but this time they are here to eat wine and not to send New Year's goods, and the gift they brought is a set of ruby jewelry bought by the whole village with money, worth 2,000 taels of silver, which is very expensive for them.

Kong Ye opened the mahogany box and saw the shining jewelry, and hurriedly said: "We sent someone to send you a letter saying that you should not give too expensive gifts, why are you still so expensive?" ”

He Sanshan is a person who has seen the world, and knows that this set of jewelry is far worse than the treasures of the royal family, so he said a little tightly: "This is what we gave to the little prince's daughter-in-law to protect the princess, and I am afraid that she will not look down on it." ”

Kong Ye said confidently: "Third uncle, my daughter-in-law will definitely say yes when she sees it." ”

He Sanshan smiled at this time. His three sons can't let go, but the three daughters-in-law and two daughters can talk to Kong Ye.

When he was young, He Jingmiao came back from looking at the furniture in Yanwang's mansion, and was very happy to see everyone, especially last year's playmate Doudou, and said with a smile: "Tomorrow morning, I will take you to my brother and sister-in-law's palace to have a look." ”

When He Sanshan entered the mansion just now, he saw the lights in each courtyard and asked, "Isn't the little prince's new house here?" ”

He Qing didn't explain this matter for the first time, and said naturally: "Third uncle, my eldest brother gave Jing Yan and his daughter an independent Yan Palace. Their little couple got married here, and they went back to live in King Yan's mansion. ”

Doudou Niang couldn't believe it, and wondered: "The little prince and the princess are going to move out alone?" ”

The custom of the Ding Dynasty is that the eldest son must live with his father and mother from childhood to adulthood, even if he is old and becomes a grandfather.

Kong Ye said with some anxiety: "My family Jingyan and my daughter take care of Xinlang, and I have decided to leave this place for Xinlang to live after his wedding." ”

Chang'an is every inch of land, in addition to the palace, the largest area is several palaces, Qingwangfu is one of them, the furniture and antiques in the palace are countless, it can not be said that it is priceless, and it is also extremely expensive.

Such a magnificent palace, He Jingyan and Li Jingjing were actually given to He Jingxin, such a generous eldest brother and sister-in-law are rare in the world.

For He Qing and Kong Ye, the palms and backs of the hands of the three children are all meat, and they will not ask He Jingyan to give him the best because He Jingxin was born with a disability, but this matter was brought up by He Jingyan and Li Jingjing together, saying that everything is for the good of this family.

But Kong Ye felt that this was too bad for He Jingyan and Li Jingjing, and he was very unsure.

He Qingdao: "After Jing Yan and his daughter's wedding, he will leave Chang'an to go to the fief given by my eldest brother, and I am afraid that we will be lonely, so I will let Miao Lang live here to accompany us after the wedding." ”

Doudou's two aunts both praised: "Home and everything is prosperous." The little prince and princess are really open-minded. "Little prince and princess are so filial, you are really blessed."

He Sanshan glanced at He Jingxin, who lowered his head and pondered, and said: "The little prince and princess are the eldest brother and sister-in-law, and they have set such a good example, and the little prince will definitely be very filial to you when he gets married in the future." ”

He Jingxin raised his head and looked at his father and mother with a kind face, and his heart was even more determined to marry a good daughter-in-law who was as filial and generous as Li Jingjing, and to be filial to his father and mother who had worked hard for him for more than ten years.

On the fifth day of the fourth month, according to the customs of the Ding Dynasty, the brothers He Jingyan and He Jingxin happily went to Li's house with gifts to send the sedan chair to the front.

A pair of adult geese, two wild boar, two carp of 20 catties of Bahe, 20 catties of palace halva, 20 catties of special brown sugar, and 20 catties of special tea, this is the six rites in front of the sedan chair.

In the afternoon of the same day, He Jingyan and He Jingxin returned to Qingwangfu and took Li Jingjing's dowry.

The dowry given by the Li family to Li Jingjing included 62 pieces of rare jewels and antiques more than 100 years old, as well as 200,000 taels of silver tickets, 1,000 acres of land, 12 shops, a set of Jin Si Nan furniture in the main room, a bedroom and a study, and 40 slaves and servants.

Li Jingjing's dowry since she was a child, a luxurious and peculiar Four Seasons Manor in Chang'an, six shops, 500 acres of medicine fields, nearly 100 pieces of jewelry and treasures, 7,000 hand-copied books, 5 million taels of silver tickets, 500 pro-soldiers, 8 slaves and maids, and 12 followers.

Such a luxurious dowry is the first in Chang'an, far exceeding the royal princess He Yiyun, and it is more than ten times more than the dowry that the fifth princess He Jinglian remarried a few days ago.

Ten miles of red makeup through the most prosperous streets of Chang'an, the common people have flocked to see, a piece of treasures and antiques, a huge amount of silver tickets, rare Jin Si Nan furniture, all of which are shocking.

Many literati were stunned and unbelievable when they saw the hand-copied books in rattan baskets and heard the number of 7,000 books, knowing that the Liu family, which was once the head of the four major families, did not have so many books.

"Li Bing, that Heavenly Evil Star, is really hidden deeply, and he is so rich."

"Who said last time that the Li family is a donkey dung egg, let him come over and take a look at the dowry given by the Li family to the princess of the country!"

"The girl who marries out, spills the water! Tiansha Star Li Bing gave the entire Li family's valuable things to the Qingwang family. ”

The Li family held the first two big celebrations, and this is the third high-profile time, which makes those who have always made fun of the Li family for having no family background and being poor and relying on Li Jingjing to support them.

However, these people have a new explanation, "Your Majesty's dowry to Princess Yan is not as much as Li Bing's to Princess Protector." ”

"Where did Li Bing get so much money?"

"Li Bing clamored every day to kill corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and he himself is the biggest corrupt official in our dynasty!"

The dowry procession walked without hurry, and the streets it passed were inhabited by many nobles from Chang'an.

He Jinglian got the letter in the princess's mansion, and immediately trotted to the highest part of the attic to look down at the street not far away, Li Jingjing's dowry procession had already walked through most of it, and only seeing a small part of the dowry made her crazy with jealousy.

Hu Xuelan, who once fell out with He Jinglian, went out of the East Palace in order to go to Qingwangfu to see with her own eyes how much Li Jingjing's dowry was, and came out of the East Palace with a cheeky face to find He Jinglian.

Hu Xuelan's broken left arm sleeve was empty, her right foot was slightly lame when she walked, her cheekbones were bulging so thin, her eyes were round and wide, and she looked a little hideous, and asked, "Cousin, I heard that the amount of Jingniang's dowry is worth the sum of the dowries of your princesses?" ”

Not only was she caught by a bear while hunting in Lishan, but she also lost a left arm and fell on her right leg with a slight lameness.

"I've seen it, Jing Niang's dowry is just more than Yun Niang's." He Jinglian's mind is the same as Hu Xuelan, but she has offended He Jingxin and He Jingmiao, and she is afraid that she will be scolded by these two direct goods.

Hu Xuelan saw that He Jinglian refused to go to Qingwang's Mansion, so she cursed a few words in her heart, and went alone after leaving the princess's mansion.

After Li Jingjing's dowry entered the Qingwang Mansion, there was an endless stream of people who came to see the dowry, except for the people of the royal family, as well as He Jingyan's friends and subordinates, the mansion was not lively.

Hu Xuelan entered the Qingwang Mansion in the name of the prince's concubine and brother's daughter-in-law, and took the two palace maids to the courtyard where the dowry was placed along the flow of people.

I heard the laughter of several women from a distance, and the voices of two of them were very distinctive, and Hu Xuelan could tell that they were Princess Deng who had just returned to Chang'an and Princess Niu who spoke mercilessly.

She was afraid of being ridiculed by Princess Niu in the past, so she waited for these first-class women to leave before she walked in.

The whole yard of golden silk nanmu furniture, soft pale golden yellow, smooth texture, carved dragon and phoenix auspicious pattern of thousands of beds, dressers, eight immortal tables, chaise longues, chairs, desks, wardrobes, etc., are all luxurious to the extreme.

Hu Xuelan clearly remembered that the entire Hu clan only had a big bed of golden silk nanmu for the old patriarch and the patriarch's wife, and there were so many pieces in front of him.

Her heart was pounding out of her chest, and she finally moved her steps, limping forward with a limp, seeing a whole hall of books, rubbing her eyes with both hands, and looking again.

He Jingmiao walked over with He Sanshan and his family, pointed to a basket of books and said with a smile: "The Murong family gave my sister-in-law more than 6,000 ancient books. My sister-in-law left the original at her parents' house and brought it with me as a manuscript. ”

Doudou clapped his palms and said excitedly: "A lot of books." Stacked up to form a mountain of books. ”

Hu Xuelan hid sideways in the door, gritting her teeth and looking at the back of He Jingmiao's head.

He Jingmiao looked back at Hu Xuelan, her face changed slightly, and she suddenly pointed to her broken arm, and said, "You are missing your right arm, you find my sister-in-law and beg her to give you a prosthetic." ”

Hu Xuelan's face was gloomy, she took two steps forward, and asked in a cold voice, "What did you say, I didn't hear it clearly?" ”

"My sister-in-law can put a prosthesis on someone who lacks an arm or leg." He Jingmiao pointed to Hu Xuelan's lame foot as if she had discovered a new continent, and said kindly: "Your right leg is shorter than your left leg, and my sister-in-law can cure this disease." ”

"You ugly hunchback, how dare you laugh at me?" Hu Xuelan shot a fierce light, raised her right foot and kicked He Jingmiao's lower abdomen.

Eight-year-old Doudou stood next to He Jingmiao, pounced without thinking about it, and directly threw Hu Xuelan to the ground, but he was also kicked in the chest by Hu Xuelan's foot, sat on the ground, and cried loudly.

Hu Xuelan fell on all fours, screamed in pain, and was helped up by the two palace maids who rushed over.

"You dare to hit me, you kicked and injured my family's Doudou!" He Jingmiao screamed and rushed forward like a tiger, and just slapped Hu Xuelan with a snap, he was hugged tightly by Hu Xuelan's martial arts maid.

Hu Xuelan took the opportunity to step forward and stomp on He Jingmiao's right foot, Doudou Niang's eyes were sharp, and she rushed up and knocked her away with her head before He Jingmiao's slave came up.

Hu Xuelan didn't stand firm and rolled to the ground, the back of her head hit the bluestone ground with a bang, her head buzzed, and in a fit of rage, she picked up a few books in the rattan basket next to her and threw them at Doudou Niang, and then got up and went to hit He Jingmiao again.

"You dare to throw away my sister-in-law's book! Shoot you! He Jingmiao was so angry that she stomped her feet and pushed the big palace maid with a bitter face.

The slaves and maids of the Li Mansion came up and put up the arms of Hu Xuelan, who had lost her mind and went crazy, so that her feet could not touch the ground.

The two palace maids knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and said, "Little county lord, for the sake of the prince, don't embarrass Concubine Hu." ”

Hu Xuelan screamed: "I am a dignified and second-class prince's side concubine, and I was beaten in King Qing's Mansion? I'm going to sue the royal court! ”

Doudou's father turned pale, squatted down and hugged Doudou tightly, and asked, "Doudou, tell Dad, where do you hurt?" ”

He Jingmiao glared at Hu Xuelan in annoyance, ran over to look at Doudou, who was holding his chest and crying with tears on his face, and said hurriedly: "Quickly send Doudou to my sister-in-law." ”

There is a doctor in King Qing's mansion, but since Li Jingjing treated He Jingxin and He Jingmiao a few years ago, He Qing's family has not looked for a doctor.

Doudou Daddy, Doudou Niang took Doudou and followed He Jingmiao out of Qingwang's Mansion in a hurry to find Li Jingjing.

When He Jingyan, He Qing, and Kong Ye arrived when they heard the news, Hu Xuelan had been locked in the study by the slaves and maids of Qingwangfu, and the two palace maids were persuading Hu Xuelan to give in and apologize to Qingwangfu.

Hu Xuelan sat upright and straightened her chest, and for a moment her eyes looked up at He Jingyan obsessively, and then suddenly tears fell like rain, crying: "My life is not good, I don't know who I offended, I lost an arm and was lame, just now Sister Miao said a few words to me, I was stimulated and misunderstood her for a while." I didn't mean to. ”

He Qing and Kong Ye heard that Doudou was kicked by Hu Xuelan and their hearts hurt, and Li Jingjing's marriage book was almost damaged, so they were so angry that they really wanted to beat Hu Xuelan, but Hu Xuelan was the side concubine of the crown prince He Yiyang, and she was a disabled person, so it was really difficult to deal with.

Both husband and wife looked at He Jingyan.

He Jingyan emitted a murderous aura all over her body, staring at Hu Xuelan until she lowered her head in fear to stop crying, and said coldly: "Send someone to the East Palace to bring a message to the crown princess and take Concubine Hu away!" ”

To put it bluntly, the crown prince's concubine is the noble concubine in ordinary people's homes. I didn't see anyone's concubine going out all day and night, visiting relatives' houses.

The crown princess, the mistress of the East Palace, didn't take care of Hu Xuelan well, and let her out to make trouble.

He Qing, Kong Ye, and He Jingyan went to the hall, and He Sanshan and his family came forward to apologize with sad faces.

He Sanshan and his family didn't expect that looking at the dowry would cause such a disaster, Hu Xuelan is the prince's side concubine, and now Ziqing Wangfu is equivalent to offending the prince.

He Qing said in a low voice: "The prince is my own nephew. He wouldn't be angry with our family for a concubine. ”

Kong Ye saw that He Sanshan was worried that Doudou was already old with tears in his eyes, and hurriedly comforted: "Doudou went to my daughter, it will definitely be fine." You can rest assured. ”
