After Yuan Qingling walked around, he sat in the gazebo, and the baby was placed in the stroller made by Yuan Qingling to continue to bask in the warm sun. The little snow wolves also crawled beside the car, and the golden autumn sunshine flowed on the three children and three wolves. Indescribable unbridled comfort.

Man'er and Ah Si also came over, and Ah Si sat down to talk to Yuan Qingling. Man'er and Kira Green Sprouts learn to embroider, and in the distance, his grandmother instructs Kao to tidy up the flowers and trees in the yard. In the distance, girls walked back and forth in the house. Methodically busy.

Yuan Qingling narrowed his eyes and sighed that the years were quiet.

But Ah Si frowned, "What a waste of time, what a good morning, what should you do?" ”

Yuan Qingling smiled. That's the difference between an old woman and a little girl. It's only been a little over a year since I crossed here. But after several lives and deaths, she feels that her state of mind has reached aging, and she just wants to live a stable life.

But Ah Si is still like this rising sun. Vigorous. Ambition.

Xu Yi came back and informed that His Royal Highness had left the palace and returned to the Yamen.

Yuan Qingling asked, "How is Your Highness in your mood?" ”

Xu Yiyi: "Obviously it's not very good. Since leaving the palace and returning to the yamen. Just said a word. ”

Ah Si asked, "What did you say?" ”

Xu looked at her like an idiot, "Tell me to come back and tell the crown princess his whereabouts." ”

Yuan Qing Ling's eyebrows sank, and he said, "I know, you go and get busy." ”

Xu Yi retired.

Yuan Qingling's mood deteriorated suddenly, and he sighed softly, the fifth child must have truthfully reported to the emperor, but what will the emperor do? Will you move the virtuous concubine?

At noon, the palace eunuch came out to Xuan Yuanqing Ling to enter the palace to see the driver, which made Yuanqing Ling a little surprised, guessing that it was for the matter of Concubine Xian, but this matter shouldn't be mixed with her, right?

Yuan Qingling entered the palace alone, and came to the outside of the Winter Nuan Pavilion with the inner chamberlain, she was stunned, "The emperor is inside?" ”

Before the inner eunuch could answer, he saw Mu Ru's father-in-law come out, and said with a smile: "The crown princess came just in time, and the emperor is waiting for you to eat." ”

As soon as he heard this, Yuan Qingling's scalp was numb, such a grace, the minute paid was double the price.

"Crown Princess, please come in." Seeing her standing still, Mu Ru's father-in-law continued to smile and wave.

Yuan Qingling had no choice but to follow Mu Ru's father-in-law in, her skirt swept over the steps, and she was so dazed that she almost fell.

Entering the warm pavilion, I saw that the tableware had been placed on the sandalwood eight immortals table, Emperor Ming Yuan sat at the desk next to read a book, Concubine Hu was waiting next to him, and when he saw her coming, Emperor Ming Yuan raised his head and looked at her, "It's coming!" ”

Yuan Qingling immediately went over to salute, "The daughter-in-law sees her father, and she sees Concubine Hu." ”

"Excuse me, sit down." Emperor Ming Yuan stood up, his face seemed to have a smile, but Yuan Qingling didn't dare to stare at it, but felt that at a glance, the smile was forcibly squeezed out.

Emperor Ming Yuan sat down first, Concubine Hu sat beside her, with a demure and beautiful smile, and smiled gently at Yuanqing Ling.

Concubine Hu was originally a passionate woman, but after she became pregnant, her temperament seemed to have changed greatly, she had faded away from her youth and recklessness, and had become calm and mature.

It seems that men and children can indeed make a woman change quickly.

Yuan Qingling took a seat, listening to Emperor Ming Yuan's instructions to Mu Rugong's father-in-law, she cautiously asked first, "I don't know what happened to my father and daughter-in-law to enter the palace?" ”

Emperor Ming Yuan said: "What can happen?" Please eat. ”

Yuan Qing Ling sneered, "Thank you, father." She secretly glanced at Concubine Hu, hoping that Concubine Hu could give her some hints, but Concubine Hu's eyes were gentle and loving, as if she was looking at her own daughter-in-law.

There was no hint at all.

In a moment, the palace mermaid rushed in, three people, four dishes and one soup, very simple, delicate but not sumptuous, vegetarian dishes accounted for three things, and there was only one fish in the meat dish, braised pine nut fish, sweet and sour, it should accommodate Concubine Hu's appetite.

Emperor Ming Yuan, who had always eaten and didn't speak, looked at Yuan Qing Ling and said, "The food in your Chu Palace's mansion is more sumptuous than my imperial meal, right?" ”

Yuan Qing Ling's heart was full of alarms, could it be that the emperor suspected that the silver embezzled by Concubine Xian had subsidized the Chu Palace?

She shook her head slowly, "If you go back to your father's words, eating in the Chu Palace's Mansion is also very simple, if there is only me and Lao Wu, it will probably be two dishes." ”

"Really?" Emperor Ming Yuan said lightly, "I heard that the fifth child was more luxurious in the past. ”

Yuan Qingling said firmly: "It's not extravagant at all, now that it's autumn, the fifth child and I haven't made new clothes, and the baby hasn't done it either." ”

"Why not? Is there a shortage of money? Emperor Ming Yuan's voice was slightly questioning.

Yuan Qingling said: "There is no shortage, just enough to wear, and the most important thing is that the silver is useful." ”

"In this way, he is good at taking care of his family's wealth, and now he is afraid that he has accumulated a lot, right? How many, say the number to listen. Emperor Ming Yuan raised his head when he asked this, and looked at her with sharp eyes.

When Yuan Qingling heard it, this is a direct investigation of family wealth, so he has to tell the truth, and he must explain the origin of the silver, otherwise he will really misunderstand that the silver that Concubine Xian greedy for was given to the Chu Palace.

Yuan Qingling put down his chopsticks and said, "If you go back to your father's words, if you don't count the land and real estate and the arrears outside, the amount of silver on hand now is between two million taels." ”

After a pause, Yuan Qingling cautiously added, "It's probably this number." ”

After all, she didn't calculate the specific number, but it was probably so much, and the fifth child should still have some stored in the bank, and the deposit ticket was put away by her and put it into the account room, and it also cost a sum to rent the academy, and the account in and out may not be matched, but it is probably such a number.

When Emperor Ming Yuan heard this, a glint flashed in his eyes, and he asked solemnly: "There are still arrears?" Lent it to whom? How much was borrowed? How much profit do you receive? You should know that although the dynasty can lend money, there is a limit to the profit, and if it exceeds the prescribed amount, it is a crime. ”

Yuan Qingling lowered his head and said slowly: "Father, it's not a loan, it's you...... The IOU you gave the call. ”

Emperor Ming Yuan was stunned, and then said dissatisfiedly: "Isn't that IOU all redeemed?" When you ask to go back to your mother's house, it's already full. ”

The first big guy in the Northern Tang Dynasty!

Yuan Qingling said helplessly: "Then there is no arrears." ”

Concubine Hu looked at Emperor Ming Yuan, "Your Majesty, do you still have an IOU?" ”

Emperor Ming Yuan straightened his face and said, "Eat, don't talk when you eat." ”

After a meal, after eating with their own hearts, the palace people came in to collect the remnants, re-spread the tablecloth, set up the tea set, and Mu Ru's father-in-law personally made tea.

Concubine Hu said: "The crown princess, try the cloud tea sent by Daxing." ”

The tea was fragrant, Yuan Qingling took a sip and praised it, "This is good tea." ”

Emperor Ming Yuan waited for her to drink a cup of tea, and then said to Concubine Hu: "You go back and rest, I still have something to say to the crown princess." ”

"Good!" Concubine Hu said obediently, Yuan Qingling stood up and sent her body off, and Concubine Hu left with a warm and happy smile on her face.

After Concubine Hu left, Emperor Ming Yuan's expression was closed, and Yuan Qingling suddenly sat upright, knowing that eating was a prelude, and now talking is the right thing, but I don't know what his idea is, I always feel that it is not a crime or a good intention.

Emperor Ming Yuan slowly spoke, "Your mother-in-law, did the fifth child tell you?" ”
