199 Indemnification

It's just a simple thing, but those in power think too much.

Ah Huan said: "In the eyes of Prince Min, the Lord of the Seven Counties is a person who can make a lot of money?" ”

"Lord Min knew that the Lord of the Seven Counties was unmarried and pregnant, but he let it go, that is, he did not care for it or punish it. He thought that once things developed according to the good trend and the Seven County Lords successfully married Li Guan, he would take the Seven County Lords in the future and let her take the silver money back to her parents' house from time to time.

If he punished the Seven County Lords at this time, wouldn't he gain more than he lost? At least under the words of the people, he did not punish her, and still let her live in King Min's Mansion with good food, drink and clothing, which is to treat the seven county lords well. ”

King Min is very cold to his children, who makes him have more children than the emperor's, he really can't control it, he really exerts his "breeding \ horse" habits, only cares about giving birth to children, but never thinks about how to raise children well.

Ah Huan reprimanded lightly: "These people have a lot of thoughts, could it be that money is more important than fame?" ”

"Xiao Qi is just a concubine who is not favored. And the royal family is something that ordinary people can discuss, and it only ruins the reputation of the seven county lords. Do you think the other concubines in the Min Palace's mansion can be affected? The six county lords are still going to leave the cabinet, and the eight county lords are still discussing their relatives. The favored daughter can still have a good fate, and if she is not favored, let her be ice and jade, without the help of the princess and Concubine Gu, who knows that you have such a daughter in the Min Palace. ”

Whoever goes to ruin the reputation of the royal family, this is not their own life.

Even if you want to talk about the princess of King Min's mansion, the family is also a royal surname and a royal daughter.

Ah Huan sighed, "In the final analysis, scarcity is precious. If you look at the Rong Palace, there is only one son of Lang Shizi, whose dignity is two points stronger than that of a serious prince. ”

Prince Min has too many children, more than 20 Haohao, and the sons are sorted separately, and the daughters are also sorted separately.

When they reach marriageable age, there are five county lords: three county lords, five county lords, six county lords, seven county lords, and eight county lords. Although there are many county lords in King Min's mansion, there are only three county lords with titles: the big county lord from Princess Min - Ming Shan; The five county lords of Concubine Gu - Minglan; The three county lords of King Min's favorite concubine Liu Chengyi-Mingbo, because her mother is the most favored concubine of Prince Min, and the daughter is more precious than her mother. King Min Shangshu asked for a county lord title.

According to the royal rules, the county lord enjoys the first-class county lord position, which is the fifth grade; The county lord from the side concubine can also get the title, however. Its rank is different from that of the county lord, and he enjoys the second-class county lord position, which is the sixth grade; The county lord from the concubine can only enjoy the third-class county lord position, which is the seventh grade. It is equivalent to the county lordship, but it is just a good name.

The county lord of Mingbo enjoys the treatment of the county lord, and because of the title, he is more decent than other county lords who have not been titled. The lord of Mingbo County also lives in a decent noble lady's attic, although the attic is not as good as Ming Shan and Ming Lan, but it is enough to make other concubines envious.

Two days later, Li Yuanyan's second son, Li Wang, bullied the seven county lords of the Min Palace.

The imperial history was even more folded, impeaching Li Yuan's godson for no way, bullying men and women, and even the seven county lords of King Min's Mansion were not spared. even made the Seven County Lords pregnant, and the infatuated Seven County Lords were still waiting for Li Yuan's "arrangement".

The power of the imperial history is huge, and I don't know where to collect a few examples, saying that in a certain year and month, Li Wang defiled the daughter of a widow and woman Xi Shi of a tofu shop, and denied it afterwards, forcing the woman to jump into the river at the age of twenty-eight to find a short, and then Mrs. Li Er came forward and gave the tofu shop two hundred taels of silver; In another year and month, Li Wang accompanied his mother to the Temple of Our Lady of Chunhui to offer incense. Seeing that the daughter of a certain family surnamed Zheng was pretty, he deceived others, causing the woman to become pregnant soon, and finally. This Zheng girl was actually immersed in a pig cage by the clansmen......

In this way, Lieluo came up with six incidents with names and surnames, and justified evidence.

Murong Mao and Luo Fengzhi made trouble in the Li Mansion, and Luo Fengzhi cried and asked the Li family to marry the seven county lords as his wife; And Murong Mao accused Li Wang of ruining the reputation of the Min Wangfu and insulting his sister in front of the Li family. ordered Li Wang to be beaten with a blue nose and swollen face, not to mention, and said that he wanted to recuperate for the lord of the seven counties, and he had to force Li Yuan to take out one million taels of silver.

If Second Mrs. Li didn't take it, Murong Mao beat Li Wang.

She had a pain in her flesh and had to take the silver ticket.

Seeing where they gave Murong Mao, Luo Fengzhi cried and refused to leave, saying that her daughter was now thin and was forced by her brother to ask about her husband, so she was so frightened that she was short, and she was rescued, and she must have asked Lang Zhong to see a doctor and take medicine to recuperate......

The Li family lives in the area of Taiping Lane in Mingyue'an, where there are young eunuchs, among which the Wen family's Jia Longbo lives nearby, which attracted the attention of the surrounding people for a while.

Second Mrs. Li cherished her reputation, and took another 50,000 taels of silver tickets, wanting to send Luo to serve and leave, but where did Luo serve, she only said that this bit of silver was only enough to eat bird's nest a few times, "Second Mrs. Li, don't look at the face of the monk and see the face of the Buddha, my daughter is still pregnant with your grandson, this is your golden grandson, why do you want to send people with such a little money?" ”

Although Luo accepted it, he still refused to leave.

Second Mrs. Li was distressed, so she had to add another 50,000 taels of silver tickets, sent her grandmother to say good things, and Luo served before leaving the Li Mansion.

For a time, the Li family was out of the limelight, not a good name but a bad name.

Murong Mao received a compensation of one million taels of silver, and it soon spread out.

*

When Princess Min and Prince Murong Jin heard about it.

Murong Jin's eyes were about to stare out: "The boss went out to make trouble, and he got the Li family's compensation of one million taels of silver?" ”

The errand boy said: "Back to the world, it's true, the guards and subordinates who went with me all looked at it." ”

A million taels?

This must be enough for King Min to spend for a while.

The Middle Garden, the East Garden, and the South Garden can all be under the control of Princess Min's mother and son.

Concubine Gu's mother and son only managed one West Garden.

Murong Jin felt a pain in his flesh: "How could such a good thing be won by Concubine Gu's mother and son." ”

"Princess, Concubine Gu picked up a courtyard in Xiyuan, saying that it was for Luo to serve. At this time, Luo served and moved in with his mother-in-law. Concubine Gu also said to Luo Fengzhi and the seven county lords that he and the eldest prince were in charge of the family affairs of the seven county lords, and they would not let the Li family be bullied in vain. ”

Where is this tube, it is clear that the benefits are picked up for nothing.

That's a million taels of silver for nothing.

Murong Jin said: "It's a pity! What a good opportunity, he was picked up by the boss, and he gained a reputation as a friendly brother and sister, and he also got benefits. The younger brothers and sisters in the house may think how benevolent and righteous he is? ”

Princess Min said coldly: "Xiao Qi is the daughter of the prince, they got the silver, can it belong to them?" Xiao Qi was raised by the prince, and Xiao was wronged, and he has his own prince in charge, where is their turn. ”

Murong Jin's eyes lit up, "Mother Concubine is right." ”

King Min didn't want to care about these messy things in the back house, but he couldn't help but hear that the Li family gave one million taels of silver with a wave of his hand, and his eyes lit up immediately, if it was tens of thousands of taels, he didn't want it, but this was one million taels, which was a lot of money.

At night, King Min entered Concubine Gu's courtyard for the first time.

Concubine Gu warmly entertained him, set up a wine banquet, and poured wine.

"Concubine Gu, did Li Yuan give the eldest prince a million taels of silver tickets?"

Concubine Gu was slightly stunned: I wanted to hide it, but how could I hide it. She smiled, "Mao'er is also angry, the prince doesn't know how deceitful the Li family is." The child in Xiao Qi's belly is Li Wang's, but he forced Xiao Qi to marry Li Guan......"

Concubine Gu talked about him left and right, hoping that King Min would forget about the silver.

After she finished speaking, King Min drank a cup of tea and said unhurriedly: "Give one million taels of silver tickets to this king." ”

"Lord, the princess's mother and son's family business is still small? said that it was the princess's dowry, how many years has it been, and her dowry can be increased tenfold? It's not the prince's family business, Minglan is married, and he is a famous family, so this dowry can't be thin. Although Mao'er became a relative, she is in her twenties, with no title and no fame. I have served in an idle position in the Ministry of Officials, and these are all things to be dealt with. ”

King Min saw her pulling at the side, and said with a dignified face: "Give 500,000 taels of the total." ”

"Lord Wang, back then, you said that you would not establish a concubine, and gave the position of the prince to Ah Jin, can I have trouble with you?" Concubine Gu thought that her background was no worse than that of Princess Min, and the two knew King Min at the same time, and married into King Min's mansion in the same year, but Princess Min pressed her everywhere. Princess Min gave birth to her eldest daughter, and she gave birth to her eldest son.

Thinking of the bitterness of these years, tears slipped down, and she took the handkerchief and wept softly, "The son she gave birth to attacked the prince, and the daughter she gave birth to is also a point more noble than my daughter, with the title of Mingshan, the pearl of the royal palm, but my family Lan'er is the lord of Minglan County...... Woo, although she is also the lord of the county, she is half a point shorter than her child.

Lord, you and I have been husband and wife for more than 20 years, I treat you wholeheartedly, because I love you and value you, I have endured how many grievances she has given me......"

King Min frowned slightly: In Emperor Tianqian's life, there were two empresses, one was the Holy Empress Cirong to whom his heart belonged, and the other was his wife, Empress Cijing. This Empress Cijing is Concubine Gu's aunt and grandmother, and the Gu family also had a title back then, but it was only later that Emperor Yonghe ascended the throne and took the title of the Gu family.

Otherwise, with Concubine Gu's background back then, how could she be willing to live in the position of a side concubine.

King Min felt uncomfortable for a while when he heard this, "Why did I say that I wouldn't give the Marquis to Mao'er?" ”

"You didn't say it, but it's been more than twenty years......" Concubine Gu cried profusely, thinking that they were also sons, Murong Mao was only less than two years older than Murong Jin, and Murong Jin was crowned the prince when he was ten years old, but his son still hasn't gotten the title, "The people in the house say that you want to leave the title to the fifth prince." ”

The fifth son, Murong Ying, is the youngest son of Princess Min, and he is also a concubine.

"Who did you listen to?"

"It's been spread all over the house over the years, and I still use the concubine body to say it. It's good that the prince is in the prime of life now, if he is all old, the concubine will look forward to walking in front of the prince, so as not to see the Mao'er family being bullied in the future...... The fifth prince has a son-in-law, and he has his own son to take care of him, but my Mao'er...... What if I went? ”

Concubine Gu is old and has lost her face, if it weren't for the fact that she has been a husband and wife with King Min's Mansion for more than 20 years and has a pair of children under her knees, how can she have a place to speak in the mansion.

Today, when I saw that King Min took the initiative to come to her yard, I wanted to cry.

She had to get a knighthood for her son no matter what.

The prince can't compete for the position of Zhongyuan, but how can this marquis be returned to the second son of Zhongyuan.

"That's it! All right! I know it's not easy for you, I'll hand you over the favor another day, and ask the royal brother to give her a knighthood. (To be continued.) )
