Chapter 251: Miss Lin Xingfan
Hearing that Sister Fan was willing to marry him, Liu Xie was overjoyed, and he didn't expect that the famous No. 1 beauty in Jingzhou in the Three Kingdoms was also included in the harem by him, and she was still in the cabinet period, Liu Xie felt that he had picked up a big baby. (Note: Guiyang County is under the jurisdiction of Jingzhou.) )
Liu Xie grabbed Sister Fan's hand, Sister Fan wanted to withdraw her hand, but she couldn't pull it, Liu Xie said: "Uncle Yue, Miss Fan, tomorrow the Han army will go out early in the morning, and I will also go with the army to Yuzhang ......"
Before Liu Xie finished speaking, Sister Fan said, "The people are willing to follow Your Majesty together." ”
"But the journey is bumpy, and the young lady is weak, I don't know if I can adapt to it?"
Sister Fan said: "In order to follow Your Majesty, the people don't care about this. ”
Liu Xie said: "In this case, it's not too early, and I have to go out early tomorrow morning, why don't you go back to the imperial camp with me?" ”
Sister Fan bowed her head and said nothing, Fan Weng was also confused, this emperor is too anxious, this is going to take Sister Fan back, it is inevitable that something good will be done tonight.
Seeing that her father and daughter didn't speak, Liu Xie asked, "What, isn't Miss unwilling?" ”
Sister Fan pondered for a moment and said, "The folk girl is willing, but it's too hasty, and the folk girl is a little overwhelmed." ”
Liu Xie said: "In troubled times, people don't have to be confined to small sections. Since Miss is willing to go with me, then go and pack up and say goodbye to your family, I am still here waiting for you. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty," Sister Fan said and went out.
There is only Fan Weng left in the private room, and Liu Xie said: "Uncle Yue, I am a poor emperor, and I don't have any dowry for you." ”
As soon as Liu Xie's words came out, it was clear that he wanted to empty the rhythm of the white wolf, and Fan Weng said: "The little girl can enter the palace to serve Your Majesty, that is the blessing of the little girl, and it is also the blessing of my Fan family." The grass people don't ask for any dowry. ”
Liu Xie thought for a while and said: "That's it, pen and ink are waiting, I will give you an inscription, you can hang it on the door plaque of the restaurant, so as to attract customers." ”
Fan Weng was overjoyed, and the man was in a hurry to get the pen and ink, and Liu Xie inscribed the three big characters of Diecui Building, and then wrote "Jingzhou First Restaurant" on the right with six boys in a vertical line, and the word Milky Way in the lower right corner was stamped with a big seal.
Fan Weng got Liu Xie's inscription, and if he got the treasure, he immediately instructed his servants to extend the inscription and make it into a plaque and hang it in the place where the signboard was originally hung at the entrance of the restaurant.
Liu Xie chatted with Fan Weng about his restaurant business, as well as Guiyang's cultural customs and so on.
About half an hour later, Sister Fan also packed up, only bringing two sets of clothes and nothing else.
Sister Fan came to Fan Weng, knelt down crying and said, "Daddy, my daughter is traveling this time, I don't know when I will see you, you take care of your body." ”
Fan Weng hurriedly helped her up and said, "I can't help it, you are the imperial concubine when you enter the palace now, you must not perform this great gift and torture me." ”
The father and daughter spoke, and Fan Weng said: "Daughter, you all complain that your father treats you badly on weekdays, and you feel deeply guilty for your father." ”
As she was talking, the stepmother of the Fan family walked in, first saw Liu Xie, and then took out a silver ticket and handed it to Sister Fan and said: "Sister Fan, you entered the palace as a concubine today, how can you go out empty-handed, this is too hasty, and I didn't prepare a dowry for you, this is a thousand taels of silver, just take it as a dowry for you, don't be too little." ”
The stepmother has always been harsh, but she didn't expect to be so generous at this moment, Sister Fan was also shocked for a while, but immediately excused herself and said: "Mother quickly put it away, the restaurant needs money turnover, and the two younger sisters still need to be raised." ”
The stepmother said: "Sister Fan, I usually treat you badly, but now I think about it, it's really hateful, you must accept it, otherwise how can I be safe in the future?" ”
Fan Weng also said: "You just accept it, with Your Majesty's inscription, the business of our restaurant will become more and more prosperous in the future, and there will be more days to make money." ”
Sister Fan accepted the silver ticket.
It should be noted here that silver tickets first appeared in the Northern Song Dynasty as circulating paper money, so there were no silver tickets in the Eastern Han Dynasty, but this is not a problem, Liu Xie crossed over, bringing the concept of cross-era, and therefore there was a silver ticket not long after Liu Xie ascended the throne.
In order to avoid the existence of fake tickets, the Han court stipulated that only official silver could be printed and issued, and silver tickets could be circulated between official silver and private bank.
The Han dynasty set up three kinds of hard currency: gold, silver, and copper, which were roughly the same as those of previous dynasties, but the exchange ratio was more suitable for modern times.
The 1,000 taels of silver that the stepmother of the Fan family gave Sister Fan as a dowry is equivalent to 200,000 RB now, so Sister Fan's dowry is quite objective for a family like hers.
Of course, this is not comparable with Wen Yin at all, Wen Yin's dowry is 5 million taels of silver, which is equivalent to 1 billion yuan in modern times, which also set a record for the most dowry in the Eastern Han Dynasty.
The second most dowry is Shen Fang, the eldest lady of the Shen family, a wealthy man in Hanzhong, 10,000 taels, which is equivalent to 2 million now, but compared to Wen Yin, it is not worth mentioning at all.
Although these favorite concubines all entered the palace with dowries, Liu Xie did not accept them, but let them use them at their disposal, Liu Xie himself thought that he had got their people, and it would be too unkind to ask for their money.
Therefore, Wen Yin, who is both civil and military, and rich is the most popular in the harem, everyone likes to be with her, who makes her the number one rich woman in the palace?
said that Sister Fan accepted the silver ticket given by her stepmother and put it in hand, and Liu Xie asked the Fan family to send a plaque of "Guozhang Mansion", with this thing, no one in the local area would dare to bully him.
Later, his restaurant had the "Dicui Building" plaque inscribed by the emperor himself, and the business was very prosperous.
It is said that after Sister Fan and her parents and sister said goodbye in tears, they left with Liu Xie.
When they left the restaurant, the officers who were eating in the lobby didn't dare to eat too much because the emperor was upstairs, so they all paid and slipped back early.
Sister Fan was delicate and had never ridden a horse, so Liu Xie asked Xiao Luozi to bring a more docile horse, and he personally helped her on the horse, and then several generals led the horse and walked slowly to prevent her from frightening her.
In this way, on the streets of Guiyang at night, everyone left the restaurant together and went to the camp. On the way, Liu Xie felt a burst of secret joy in his heart, he didn't have much hope for whether he could find Miss Fan, the first beauty in Jingzhou, who could know, the emperor lived up to it, and he really let him find it when he came out.
Thinking of this, I looked at Sister Fan excitedly, and sure enough, the beauty was uncomfortable, and the more I looked at it, the more I liked it, but Sister Fan just bowed her head and didn't say anything, and she couldn't tell if she was blushing in the night.
When he returned to the post house, Liu Xie couldn't wait for a long time, so he picked up Sister Fan and went directly to the room.
"Your Majesty, what are you doing here?" Sister Fan asked shyly.
"What else can I do, of course, it's to do Zhou Gong's courtesy, Xiao Luozi, close the door, and don't allow anyone to disturb you!"
