Three days later, Zhongyibo drank the medicine of the entire porcelain altar. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhu Yuanxiao came to visit Zhongyibo Mansion again.

And the next day was the 70th birthday of Mrs. Xinwu Houtai.

Zhongyi Bo started earlier than yesterday, and left Zhu Yuan to have breakfast together.

After breakfast, Zhongyi Boliu and Zhu Yuan drank tea together, and even ordered Su Steward to look forward to it and play chess with him.

After the first game, seeing that it was almost lunchtime, Chu Yuning never showed up.

Zhongyibo knew that Zhu Yuanxiao must be extremely busy today, and after thanking him again, he did not leave lunch and personally sent him to the door.

After lunch, Zhongyibo said to Steward Su: "Go and see what the county lord is doing?" If you have time, come to my yard. ”

The dormitory steward nodded and went to the guest house.

Chu Yuning looked at the Dao and asked, "The prince has already left?" ”

"Yes." The dormitory steward replied respectfully.

"Please wait, steward." Chu Yuning asked the Ning family to allocate an account room and two girls who could settle accounts to help take the inventory in the past two days, took the booklet in his hand, and went to the courtyard of Zhongyibo.

She put the booklet in front of Zhongyibo, lowered her eyes and said, "Grandpa, the jewelry you gave to your granddaughter, your granddaughter has been counted in the past two days, please take a look." ”

When Zhongyibo heard the word "gift", his eyebrows raised slightly, and he quietly picked up the booklet and read it one by one.

The number of strings of pearls, the pairs of jasper bracelets, and the number of coral trees were all recorded clearly, and there was an estimate at the back, and he turned page after page with the same expression, until the last page, on which was written a total price, "Two hundred and twenty-four thousand taels of silver." ”

Uncle Zhongyi sneered and put down the account book.

"The first two of 200,004 should be the price of northern Xinjiang, but it is more than this in the capital."

Chu Yuning nodded kindly, "I don't see many coral trees, and the valuation will inevitably be biased." ”

"But it's not easy to get there." Zhongyibo looked at her with appreciation.

"Two hundred and twenty thousand taels of silver, enough for two hundred thousand soldiers to eat for a year." Chu Yuning looked at Zhongyi Uncle calmly, and a sentence came out of his mouth coldly.

Zhongyibo smiled dumbly, "Swords and armor, shields and war horses, these are more expensive than food. ”

"Won't the guild overestimate the granddaughter? The next time your granddaughter is not in danger and is rescued again, will you have to come up with so much money to reward others? ”

Zhongyibo looked at her with a torch in his eyes, "Ning girl, not just anyone can have the ability and courage to rescue you....." He looked at her with deep eyes and didn't continue.

Chu Yuning's expression narrowed slightly, although Zhongyi Bo did not continue, but she heard what he meant.

He was comparing Zhu Yuanxiao with Lan Zhou.

Although Lan Zhou sacrificed his life to save her life, he failed to protect her and escape.

Zhu Yuanxiao took the guards and went deep into the Black Wind Village and rescued her from the place guarded by thousands of people.

Presumably, this is what Zhongyibo wants to express.

This batch of treasures worth more than 200,000 taels of silver is not only to thank Zhu Yuanxiao, but also because of his identity as the prince of King Ning, the Xinwu Marquis Mansion behind him, and the 150,000 troops in southern Xinjiang, as well as the 30,000 forbidden troops in the hands of King Ning who defended the imperial city.

"So, my grandfather has made up his mind, which side is he going to stand on?"

Zhongyi Bo sneered, "Ning girl, you are probably not familiar with your grandfather's temperament, I have always been a person who will repay me, who made me uncomfortable, even if I can't help him now, one day I will return it tenfold!" Grandpa's thoughts have been made clear enough to you that day, and you don't have to say anything more about temptation. If the prince wants to go to that position, he is destined not to fight alone, and he will definitely find someone to form an alliance in the future...... and in Zhongyibo's opinion, the best candidates for the alliance are undoubtedly the Xinwu Marquis Mansion and the Ning Wangfu.

King Ning is the younger brother of the former emperor and the current emperor, a relative of the emperor, and one of the most trusted people of the emperor.

When the Dingguo Mansion and the Emperor Taishang and Emperor Xilong ate the dog, Ning Wangfu either chose to stand on the side of the Emperor Taishang, or followed the trend of history, and then he was the most capable candidate for the throne.

Therefore, showing goodwill to Ning Wangfu and forming an alliance with Ning Wangfu is a foolproof strategy for Zhongyibo.

And judging from his cold eyes in the past few days, Zhu Yuanxiao's kid is obviously very affectionate towards Yu Ning.

If the two of them can get married, if King Yong'an is not moved in the end and has not participated in the battle for hegemony in the world, with Chu Yuning's relationship, his foundation in Jinling can also be maintained five or six times out of ten.

If King Yongan also joins the ranks of the world's hegemony and wins, he, as the ruler of the country, will be one of the winners.

If King Yong'an unfortunately loses, King Ning looks at the original 200,000 taels of silver, plus Yu Ning pleads from the side, at least it will not be a problem to leave the lives of Brother Hao, Brother An and others, and it can be regarded as preserving the bloodline of Zhongyi Bofu.

"You have been in Jinling for a long time, and tomorrow after attending the 70th banquet of Mrs. Xinwu Marquis, you will start preparing to return to Northern Xinjiang. At that time, I will arrange for your aunt and brother Hao to go back with you. Uncle Zhongyi changed his words and changed the subject.

Chu Yuning raised her hand and gently stroked her cheek, raised her eyebrows and looked at Uncle Zhongyi, "Is my granddaughter going too?" ”

Zhongyibo glared at her, puffed out his eyes and said, "Go!" How not to go! ”

If there is anyone in the Ruoning Palace's Mansion or the Xinwu Marquis Mansion, there is a look of disgust for Chu Yuning's appearance, and Zhongyi Bo only thinks that he has looked away, and the more than 200,000 taels of gold, silver and jewelry have been lost.

There is no need to mention the alliance in the future!

Those who have achieved great things, if they stick to such details, they are destined to have no great achievements in the future!

"Yes. My granddaughter got it. Chu Yuning bowed to Zhongyibo, turned around, and walked out.

"Wait." Zhongyibo stopped her, picked up the booklet on the table and handed it to her, "Copy another copy and remove the estimate." ”

Chu Yuning took the booklet and did not tell Zhongyibo that she had already written another gift list.

In addition to the congratulatory gift that Princess Ning had set for Mrs. Xinwu that day, plus a brightly colored coral tree, the other wooden boxes were just some rice, cotton wool and other things.

As for the reason, she had already thought about it, and saw that winter was coming, and it would soon be snowing in Jinling City, and there would be people who lacked food and clothing.

The Xinwu Marquis Mansion has always given porridge and quilts to people who can't eat in winter.

And Chu Yuning mentioned sending these rice, cotton wool and other things, in order to praise the bodhisattva hearts of the ladies of the Marquis of Xinwu, presumably this can please Mrs. Wuhou more than gold, silver, jewelry and other things.

As for Zhongyibo's plan to make do with her and Zhu Yuanxiao in order to complete the alliance between Ning Wangfu and Yong'an Wangfu, she has no interest in using herself as a bargaining chip to put on the trading floor and clearly mark the price.
