Chapter 21: One Hundred Thousand Gold

After being stunned, the sixth prince came back to his senses, and he looked at Rong Yu mockingly: "I don't know which book I memorized a few ancient texts and came out to show off ......."

"I don't bother to meet you in general, and I don't want to talk to you too much, what are you going to do today?"

Rong Yu looked at the six princes calmly: "Your Royal Highness, the courtiers have the same idea as you, they don't have the same knowledge as you, and they don't talk to you too much." ”

The face of the sixth prince changed drastically, and he shouted angrily: "Rong Yu! ”

Rong Yu didn't look at him, she first saluted King Ying and the others in turn, and then said to Rong Ying: "Second sister, my sister wants to donate money on behalf of others." ”

Wear filial piety clothes to donate money on behalf of others......

Rong Ying looked at Rong Yu, turned around and walked to the fundraising table, and said, "Since you donate money, you will come here to register." ”

Rong Yu held the black lacquered wooden box she had been holding in her arms with both hands.

The vase stooped and opened the wooden box.

Bright sunlight shines into the wooden box, folding a dazzling golden light.

The onlookers probed to see the contents of the wooden box, but the gold was dazzling, and they couldn't see it clearly for a while.

Maybe it's an ornament......

Rong Yu raised the wooden box higher, and the golden man attracted more attention, and she said slowly: "The little girl was entrusted by Shao Rong, the fiancΓ©e of Shao Xize, the second son of the Dingguo Mansion and the eldest lady of the Taining Hou Mansion, to donate money on her behalf. ”

"Shao Rong's remembrance of her deceased husband, she thinks of the thousands of widows in the world who have lost their relatives like her, and is willing to scatter all her family wealth to help those women and children......

Rong Yu raised his voice, and the words were sonorous: "Shao Rong's pledge to donate 100,000 taels of gold!" ”

She looked at Rong Ying: "The Zhengtong Silver Golden Ticket is here, please check it with Miss Rong Er." ”

100,000 taels of gold......

After an unusual silence, the crowd of onlookers erupted into fierce discussions:

"One hundred thousand taels of gold! My God......"

"There's a golden ticket in that box! It is rumored that a golden ticket can be exchanged for 10,000 taels of gold! Is there such a thing in the world......"

"Shao Rong's female stream, how can there be so much money?! She donated all of them today, could it be that she was delirious after her husband died?! ”

Some people pulled their legs and ran away: "There is such a rare thing in the world, I have to call my mother-in-law and babies to come and open their eyes!" ”

Because of this discussion, more people came out of the shops on the street such as Guiyun Building, and gathered around the fundraising table to watch the excitement.

Rong Ying also looked at Rong Yu unexpectedly, she quickly regained her composure, first named a few people to protect Rong Yu, and then ordered the rest of the soldiers to disperse along the street to maintain order.

Unlike the people's endless discussions about 100,000 taels of gold, although the nobles and nobles present were also shocked in their hearts, they were not always hanging silver coins on their mouths, so they discussed:

"I remember that the second son of the Dingguo Mansion never married a wife before he went on the expedition, right? There is a Mrs. Shao Rong right now, could it be that I am mistaken? ”

"You are not mistaken, this little girl has already said that Shao Rong is the eldest lady of the Rong family and the fiancΓ©e of the second son."

"How can you be a wife if you are unmarried? The world is really not ancient, and now even Miss Gaomen acts so unruly! ”

"Just say a few words, the second son died fighting for the country, the Shao Rong family scattered all the family wealth and rescued women and children, they are all righteous people, how can we hold on to this detail anymore?"

"The Great Zhou is a country of etiquette, and weddings and funerals are the most important etiquette, why are they the details? If the name is not right, it is not good, Miss Rong's act of scattering her family wealth and donating a huge amount of money is indeed noble, and I admire it in my heart, but she acted in the name of her husband's family before she was married and called herself Shao Rong's, which is difficult for me to agree with! ”

A complicated gaze fell on her body, and a steady stream of discussions rang in her ears, Rong Yu looked as usual, holding the wooden box in a straight posture, as if she couldn't feel those eyes or hear those discussions.

After the discussion calmed down a little, Rong Ying walked up to Rong Yu and asked her seriously, "Is it true that the eldest sister asked you to donate money on her behalf?" ”

Rong Yu looked calm: "Naturally, otherwise how would I have this box of golden tickets?" ”

Rong Ying looked at Rong Yu, then looked at Shao Beicheng behind her, and asked, "Third son, does my sister know what she did today?" ”

Does the Dingguo Mansion know?

If Shao Beicheng replied "I don't know", then Rong Hua would not be able to donate this money in the name of "Shao Rong's......

Rong Yu turned to look at Shao Beicheng, and said before he could speak: "The Dingguo Mansion naturally knows, otherwise, the third prince will not personally accompany me here!" ”

"The Dingguo Mansion and the Taining Marquis Mansion made a marriage contract for Shao's second son and Miss Rong, and they knew each other and promised each other, and they lived and died......"

Rong Yu looked at Shao Beicheng fixedly, and shed tears: "After the second son died in battle, the eldest lady did not want to live alone in the world, but after the persuasion of her family, she changed her mind and decided to observe the festival for the second son!" ”

"The old ladies and ladies of the Dingguo Mansion are all benevolent people, although they can't bear to be a festival woman at a young age, but a living festival woman is better than a dead martyr, so they agreed to marry the eldest lady into the Shao family to observe the festival."

"After all, if the second son has a spirit in the sky, he must also hope that the eldest lady can live well......"

Rong Yu raised his hand to wipe his tears, and continued: "As for donating money today......

"The eldest lady's mother was born in the Shen family in Suzhou, and the eldest lady of the Shen family left a rich dowry for the eldest lady, and now the second son has died in battle, the eldest lady is only willing to marry into the Shao family to keep the festival quietly, and does not want these yellow and white things to attract criticism for the Shao family's century-old reputation, and sympathize with the widow of the world's soldiers, so she resolutely scattered all her family wealth and donated it all."

"The old ladies and ladies of the Shao family are high-spirited, they persuade the eldest lady to keep some silver money for her, and there is no need to talk about it in the accident, and then see that the eldest lady is resolute, so they will no longer persuade each other and fully support her righteous deeds!"

Rong Yu looked at Shao Beicheng earnestly and asked, "Third son, is the little girl right?" ”

ruined Mu Linyuan's destined marriage;

Concealing Rong Heng and Xiao Shen's actions;

created a situation to force the Shao family to welcome Ronghua into the door;

donated the real money of the Shen family......

She was not afraid to do any of these things.

As long as Rong Hua can live, she is not afraid of anything, dares to use any means, and dares to say any nonsense.

But Shao Beicheng is here at the moment, and she can't use all her scheming skills.

This time, she didn't want to have anything to do with him.

So, she could only beg him......

She didn't even know him, and she didn't even know how to ask him......

In his previous life, he once said to Rong Hua, "If my second brother knows everything, I must hope that you will cherish yourself and live well." ”

She repeated to him what he had said, hoping that he would be moved by compassion.

Shao Beicheng looked at her silently for a while, and said to Rong Ying: "As the third lady said, the elders in my family know that my second sister-in-law is going to donate a huge amount of money today, and they specially ordered me to escort the third miss." ”

Second sister-in-law......

Rong Ying nodded to Shao Beicheng, took the wooden box in Rong Yu's hand, took out a golden ticket from the box and looked at it, and then instructed a soldier to say: "Go to the Zhengtong branch in the eastern outer city and ask someone to check the ticket." ”

Someone in the crowd of onlookers immediately responded loudly: "Second Miss Rong, after Miss Third took out the golden ticket, someone ran to our branch to inform us of the matter, and the shopkeeper's order I will come over to take a look, and I will go back and ask the shopkeeper to come over!" ”

Rong Ying nodded, and the armor squeezed to the guy's side, and the two ran away quickly.

The king walked up to Rong Ying, took out a golden ticket and looked at it, and handed it to Ma Shizi.

Ma Shizi looked at it carefully for a while before putting the golden ticket back in the box, and looked at Rong Yu with complicated eyes.

The rest of the crowd waited quietly.

Zhengtong silver is the official office of the Great Zhou Dynasty, which has branches in all state capitals, and has several branches in wealthy cities such as Kyoto and Suzhou and Hangzhou, and the acceptance reputation of the silver bills issued is extremely high.

In addition to the silver ticket, according to legend, Zhengtong Silver also issued a kind of golden ticket, which was engraved with pure gold, and one could be exchanged for 10,000 taels of gold.

An oil cake costs two cents, a coarse cloth garment costs one hundred cents, and a single house in the outer city costs a thousand taels of silver......

This is the number of silver coins that ordinary people are familiar with, and as for ten thousand taels of gold, they can't dream of that much money.

Although there are many wealthy families in the noble and noble families, those family wealth is often purchased from granges, shops, antiques, etc., and few have deposited 100,000 taels of gold in silver trumpets.

Therefore, many onlookers saw the rumored golden ticket for the first time......

Zhengtong Yinhao East Outer City Branch and Guiyun Building are on the same street, not far away, the soldier and the little guy soon hugged a middle-aged man wearing a brown round-necked cotton shirt trotted over, everyone made a way, the middle-aged man first respectfully kowtowed to the king and others to say goodbye, and then took out a magnifying glass, meticulously checked the golden ticket in the wooden box, and took out a small account book from his arms to check carefully.

He repeated this ten times before carefully putting all the golden tickets back into the box, putting away the account books, and clasping his fists at Rong Ying and saying, "Miss Rong Er, these ten golden tickets are indeed issued by Zhengtong Yinhao, and the total amount of the tickets is 100,000 taels of gold. ”

The crowd of onlookers let out neat inhalations and exclamations.

Rong Ying thanked the shopkeeper, then walked to the fundraising desk and said to the little maid who transcribed the account book: "According to what Shao Gongzi and the third lady said, the fiancΓ©e of Shao Xize, the second son of the Dingguo Mansion, and the eldest lady of the Taining Hou Mansion, ......."

"Shao Rong's pledge of 100,000 taels of gold!"
