Chapter 495: Bride Price
Gu Shendui was still confused.
She thought that her previous ideas had become utopian, and the family business she had worked hard for quick success could only save her life for the rest of her life, but it had no original meaning.
"Obviously, the rumors outside say that you are going to be with the princess, and everyone says so, I thought it was ......"
I thought that what was said outside was true, after all, all the rumors were not groundless, since the princess of southern Anhui had come, there were traces of the marriage, and it should be a matter of course to respect the prince to come forward.
"She has a sweetheart, and when she has a choice, it is not normal for her to choose the one she likes the most." Ye Qian's expression was calm, and people couldn't see the effort he had put in before.
Gu Shendui looked at him with some complexity, even if some words were not said explicitly, she was not stupid.
The emperor agreed, his original attitude was not very tough, but the concubine obviously hated her very much before, why did she agree so happily this time?
Even if it looks a little reluctant on the surface, it is enough to surprise people that there is no refutation, but it is still very cooperative.
"You let me slow down a little bit...... How did you suddenly become the crown princess in my identity, what did you do behind this? "It's not just the attitude, it's the opinion.
She has been busy for more than half a year, so that her hair has become a lot thinner, and her skin is darker and rougher than before, in exchange for making herself a little famous, and she has a little wealth in her hands.
But obviously it is not enough to cause a qualitative change, she is still just a small family, even if she does not break with the Gu family, she is not enough to match the status of the crown princess.
Ye Qianli didn't say it directly, he brought people to the East Palace, "The wedding date is very close, but it has been more than a month, I have thought about it, during this time, if you only prepare the dowry, there will be too little time, so I asked people to prepare some things for the marriage in advance." ”
A dowry is indispensable to take a long time to prepare.
Wealthy families will start preparing early, starting from the age of twelve or thirteen, and it takes five or six years to prepare before they can be regarded as having a head and a face, and they lack nothing.
If it is a family of high families, it is natural to prepare the dowry from a younger age, which is almost eight years long.
But Gu Shendui used to be a concubine, and then broke with the Gu family early, so it was said that she had worked hard to get a family business, but it was terrifying enough after it developed in the future.
Now it is just that there is no shortage of money to spend, and it is impossible to prepare a dowry that meets the royal norms in more than a month, after all, many of these things cannot be measured in money.
There were eighteen red boxes, although they had not yet been tied with red satin, but they were obviously painted with bright red paint, and the colors were as bright as blood.
"This, why do you need your help to prepare these things?" Gu Shenwan looked at it with tears and smiles, and for a while he didn't know whether to be moved, or to be annoyed that he saw himself as too incompetent.
"Don't worry, although the time is a little tighter, I can still prepare a unique and rich dowry, after all, there is no absolute requirement for what the dowry contains, I know it myself."
"You haven't said how you persuaded the emperor and the concubine? After this trip, you have not changed much from before, and it doesn't look like you're being forced to die, and it doesn't look like you've been wronged. That's why people wonder what method he used.
Ye Qianli shook his head, with a smile in his eyes, "I'm just explaining what I'm saying, if you don't talk about it well, if you really like someone else, you will inevitably have to make it more troublesome to plan to rob your relatives, it's better to say it simply." ”
Anyway, he also decided that since this was the case, why hesitate, he walked around and came back with the princess of another country, the border pass is already stable and does not need to worry about it, of course this is a credit, and he has a lot of credit.
"If you really want to know what I used to get both the concubine and my father to agree, then wait until the wedding night to ask, and I will tell you whatever you ask."
After getting a word of accuracy, Gu Shendui had no choice but to put away his curiosity for the time being.
But after pondering what he had just said, he glanced at him suspiciously.
He even thought about robbing relatives? I really can't see that she has thought about the future for so long, she clearly said that she has no intention of getting married, but he is still in such a hurry.
"Take back all these so-called dowries, I can get them myself." Although there was a lot of tribute, she wasn't talking big.
If you can't make it exactly the same, it will naturally be the same if it has the same weight and value.
In ancient times, when getting married, what kind of gift you give is almost the same as representing your own identity and status.
If she needs Ye Qianli's help in these small things, she will hardly contribute, so how can she sit in the position of the crown princess in the future.
Although the position was very hot, and it was a little hot, she decided that she must sit firmly, especially these seemingly small things that should not be taken lightly.
Marrying someone and letting the man pay the dowry and bride price, what is the matter, she is desperate to make money, in order to marry people back to her own family, instead of being compared to a flat-headed little person who has no ability to hit the shit luck.
"It's fine." Ye Qianli's eyes blinked slightly, and he didn't speak much.
Since the things have been prepared, it will be ashes if they are thrown into the warehouse, so it seems that the dowry and bride price he prepared can only be put together as the dowry he prepared.
But there are so many things, the small courtyard that Gu Shendui bought at the beginning, I'm afraid that some of them can't fit, although it is a second-entry yard that is not small, but after all, he has prepared more things.
After thinking about it, he put it temporarily, and it was a big deal that he sent out a few mansions in advance, or let Gu Shendui buy it himself. She really didn't lack this bit of silver.
"Let's go, I'll send you back."
Gu Shenwan didn't think it was any different from usual, but it wasn't until the convoy of the East Palace passed the palace gate that he realized that something was wrong.
"Do so many people have to go along?"
Gu Shendui's voice was a little shaky when he spoke, he knew that the position of the crown princess was not so easy to sit in early morning, but he still felt a little panicked when he would be surrounded by so many people.
It's not that she can't afford such a big battle, it's just that she remembered that the road in front of her house was really not wide, and so many people had to clear the street and let those familiar stall owners give way, so they could barely pass.
It's really hard work.
