Since that day Wenlan smashed Concubine Zhao's bedroom, but couldn't find many valuables, Cheng Ziyu began to be unknown.

Although Zhu Changan returned to the present world, he woke up late, hurried all the way, and went to the northwest a few days after the end of the southern tour, he had neither time to invest in any industry, nor the opportunity to spend a lot of money, even his right-hand man Ni Lao was far away, and now his financial resources should be similar to his previous life.

Cheng Ziyu is clear about his income level. It's not much, but it's not so downcast. Concubine Zhao can make a fuss, before the southern tour, Zhu Changan took one of her beads and made her almost look for death, this time Zhu Changan will rise to the challenge, and even sell the antiques she has accumulated? Even her treasury was emptied?

Big problem!

Even if Zhu Changan has a profitable deal, Concubine Zhao will definitely not agree, so emptying Concubine Zhao's treasury must be the result of Zhu Changan's "hard work". What could make him dare to invest so much?

And most importantly, where did the silver go?

On that day, the king gave a lot of silver, several thousand taels. The gifts and gifts received by the king will not be less, and if this sum alone, I am afraid that there will be at least 10,000 taels, right?

There is also the harvest of the fields, the monthly income, and the income of two shops, although the amount is not considerable, but it is not small.

Coupled with Concubine Zhao's treasure and treasury, he is afraid that he can take away 30,000 taels.

But not only did he not spend much money to go to the northwest, but he still got a position and a salary. As for the expenses of his palace, it should be that the regular salary and rice set by the prince set by the imperial court every month are enough to support him.

How could his silver be spent quietly?

In fact, on the day of Wenlan's wedding, Cheng Ziyu asked people to check Zhu Changan's two shops to see if there was anything unusual recently.

The news received was that Zhu Changan temporarily handed over the shops to their respective shopkeepers for the reason that he couldn't take care of the long trip before leaving, but at the same time, he also hung up a sign for sale at the broker's place......

Sure enough, something is wrong!

So instead of expanding or investing, he is still drawing silver taels? It must be known that although those two shops are not very prosperous, it is no problem to earn a few hundred taels a year.

Sale? Is he crazy?

Liu Er also persuaded at the time: "He is going to the northwest for several years, and Concubine Zhao is grounded again, and there is no particularly powerful person around him, so it is normal to sell it, right?" ”

But Cheng Ziyu shook her head at that time.

"You don't know him. He and Concubine Zhao's temperament is the kind of person who swallows it and won't spit it out. They are like those tenant farmers who have worked hard for many years, and finally managed to save money and buy a few plots of land, hoping that the land will be passed down from generation to generation as a family property. He won't sell, let alone make money from those two properties.

There are only two possibilities for him to sell his shop. Either the mountains are exhausted, but apparently not. Then he had to, but he ...... With Bai Heng as a backer, what else is there to do, who can make him have to? That's what I couldn't figure out. ”

And now, Cheng Ziyu's doubts are even greater.

Zhu Chang'an, even Concubine Zhao's everything was smashed in, what kind of investment could make them so desperate? ……

Cheng Ziyu went directly to Cining Palace.

This time is the time when the emperor and the elder of the pavilion finish talking in the imperial study every day, and then go to the queen mother to ask for peace.

So, just like Wenlan's time, the queen mother and the emperor were there. And Cheng Ziyu rushed to Concubine Zhao and knelt down to ask for a plea (complaint) before Concubine Zhao also came to see her.

The emperor was happy to see Cheng Ziyu, Li Chun's strength during this period of time was in his eyes, although some sons had married daughters-in-law and forgot their father's sourness, but he was still happy for his son's deep smile. If the son can be happy and healthy, he will have an explanation for the old man.

After Cheng Ziyu and Li Chun got married, the emperor saw his daughter-in-law face-to-face for the first time, and he smiled happily, cared for their lives with a pleasant face, and personally cared about her injuries, and rewarded a few objects.

In harmony, Cheng Ziyu knelt down and pleaded guilty. It was also at this time that someone came from Concubine Zhao outside, saying that Concubine Zhao was dizzy again.

Cheng Ziyu said that the culprit was herself.

"I heard that Concubine Zhao is sick, so Jinxi went to visit today."

The Queen Mother nodded when she heard this. Cheng Ziyu brought a lot of things into the palace this time, including those for the Queen Mother, and some for the Xiaoyao Wang couple, Wang Yue and others. Greetings this morning, those gifts were placed in the Cining Palace first.

Mama Fang came up and said behind the emperor and the queen mother: Today, the county lord did bring a gift, saying that it was to be given to Concubine Zhao.

After Niangniang accepted the gift, she began to ask Jinxi for the two gifts given to me during the Southern Tour, saying that she had made a mistake before, and it was for Princess An. Say I...... I don't have the right to take it, I'm going to have to return it......"

Sure enough, as soon as the sentence came out, the emperor and the queen mother changed their complexion at the same time, and the two shouted in unison, "How can this be true." The two of them almost immediately believed it. Isn't Concubine Zhao exactly that kind of person?

Cheng Ziyu described Concubine Zhao's things in a few words.

"Shame on you! Don't give it away if you can't bear it! Blindly talking nonsense, what is left for Princess An. It's a disgrace to my royal family. Fortunately, it was Jinxi who went, if it was other women, how much of a joke would this have to go? The Queen Mother was indignant.

"In order to persecute Jinxi, their masters and servants came up to threaten, saying that this is an unwarranted occupation, this is an encroachment on family heirlooms, this is a loss of reputation, saying that Jinxi has nothing to do with them, so they should return something, and when they were in a hurry, Jinxi was angry, and he gave the grandmother two slaps with his own hands, which made her shut up."

Cheng Ziyu kowtowed, and quickly arrived: "Actually, this matter is not important, what are just two things, what about returning it twice or three times?" But Jinxi really can't afford those charges. The things were given by Concubine Zhao, and the occupation was unnecessary, but there was one thing that Jinxi couldn't bear, and asked the Queen Mother and the royal family to make decisions for Jinxi. ”

"You say."

The Emperor and the Empress Dowager spoke at the same time.

Cheng Ziyu breathed a sigh of relief, yes, very good, the rhythm is in her own hands.

It was not easy to hold the rhythm in front of the Queen Mother and the Emperor, so she kept talking, just to bring them to think.

"Concubine Zhao kept saying that I was determined to be the future Princess An to give me a collar and heirloom jade bracelet, but when I accepted the collar that day, King An and Princess Wenlan had a marriage contract, and Jinxi also responded to the summons of the Queen Mother and just got on the dragon boat, Jinxi and Concubine Zhao did not know each other, and King An had only seen each other from afar, how to say that?

Didn't what she said imply that I had known and had a relationship with King An before? Does it mean that you have made a private decision for life? In addition, what kind of heirloom is said, it is even more important to make people think about it. How is it a family heirloom? How could Jinxi accept Concubine Zhao's family heirloom? When these words are spoken, the bad thing is Jinxi's reputation, and my husband is reduced to a joke. If this is usual, but now I have just married my husband, and my husband ......"

Cheng Ziyu glanced at the emperor. The other party looked gloomy and thoughtful.

"Husband, he has just received a new position, and there are such rumors coming out, which really has to make people think about it."

Cheng Ziyu kowtowed again.

"Otherwise, it has been a few months since the end of the southern tour, and it will not be a short time for Jinxi to enter Beijing, if Concubine Zhao really wants to recover the two treasures, she should act on the day Jinxi and the general were given marriage, why wait until today? Jinxi doesn't know whether to say it or not, but he just feels that it's not easy! ”

She knocked down, and sure enough, she found that there were only a few breaths left in the silence of the room.

Both of them were thinking. She didn't have to look up to feel the chill in the air, especially from the Emperor's direction.

She knew that someone had been led astray by what she had said.

Cheng Ziyu continued:

"Moreover, Concubine Zhao's status is noble, what she should have is silver, how can she not get along with me for the collar? The dignified concubine, how can she keep crying with me poorly. When Jinxi lost money to the beaten grandmother, he always felt that the eyes of several minions were straight, and it was indeed a little difficult to come to Concubine Zhao.

Today, Jinxi is in trouble again, Niangniang fainted again because of Jinxi, and she really couldn't help it, if it wasn't for the things that had been donated, Jinxi would have returned it. At the moment, things can't be found, Jinxi is willing to compensate Concubine Zhao for two thousand taels ......"

"What to lose!"

The Queen Mother was furious. "I don't have to compensate her for a tael of silver! It's an unreasonable request, now that you've done charity, if you want to compensate her, where will you put the face of our royal family! Concubine Zhao has been in the harem for so many years, and she is still doing this. It's ......."

The Queen Mother turned her eyes to look at the emperor, but saw that the emperor's face was extremely sunk. "Emperor, what do you say?"

"What Jinxi said is extremely true."

The emperor cared differently from the queen mother. He already knew that Concubine Zhao was going to do it, and he didn't care about Concubine Zhao, all his emotions at the moment were in the two points raised by Cheng Ziyu:

First, is Concubine Zhao's purpose really on Li Chun and Cheng Ziyu? Is she deliberately going to ruin Cheng Ziyu's reputation? Does this have anything to do with Li Chun's current position?

Second, what is the truth of poverty?

"Yu Hai, you go to Concubine Zhao's palace in person to see Concubine Zhao's condition. Care up and down. ”

With a look from the emperor, Father-in-law Yu understood what the master was referring to, and went to Concubine Zhao's palace as quickly as possible. And the person from the Zhaofei Palace who came to report the news earlier was called by Mama Fang to talk.

Cheng Ziyu saw it in his eyes and knew that the emperor had already gone on as he wanted.

Everything is easy to say, but the emperor has a bottom line.

If it involves imperial power, he will definitely not bear it. Li Chun is his arm, and someone wants to move, which naturally challenges his bottom line. Emotionally, he also did not allow anyone to hurt Li Chun...... Therefore, Cheng Ziyu knew that being picked by her like this would make the little things bigger.

No matter how disrespectful and arrogant she did in Concubine Zhao's palace, the emperor would not care, and would not pursue it, on the contrary, he would feel that she had to be used. And Concubine Zhao is not easy. Because obviously, if the target is against Li Chun, it is definitely not Concubine Zhao's intention, but only - Zhu Changan.

Then, if we add a second ...... Silver...... The emperor was naturally curious (suspicious) about what Zhu Changan had done......

Therefore, borrowing hands - this is Cheng Ziyu's purpose.

She is not good at checking Zhu Changan, but if it is the emperor's will, isn't it much more convenient?

Even if Zhu Changan is far away in the northwest, if the emperor really wants to investigate, if he really suspects, then it will be simple. At least Bai Heng is the emperor's person. Bai Heng, even in his previous life, was more than three years later, when the emperor was dying, he finally chose a side and stood with Zhu Changan...... Bai Heng at this moment must be a loyal minister.

The emperor gave Cheng Ziyu a seat, comforted her a few words in person, and rewarded her with a set of colorful glass cups for Persian tribute, and then asked questions with or without a match. Later, when asked about Li Chun's life, Cheng Ziyu could answer quickly, knowing that she took good care of Li Chun, and the emperor was a little satisfied with her.

Mama Fang is back.

The palace maid who came to report the news was caught off guard and taken into the small black room, and she knew everything in a panic, and explained Cheng Ziyu's gift, Concubine Zhao's gift, Mama's beating and Cheng Ziyu's aggressiveness that caused Concubine Zhao to faint.

It was enough for Mama Fang to see that what the palace maid and Cheng Ziyu said corresponded, and she didn't care about the specifics of the incident. She got the emperor's signal, and she wanted to know the financial situation of Concubine Zhao.

Taking advantage of Concubine Zhao's dizziness, Father-in-law Yu's trip even inquired about Concubine Zhao inside and out, and he also felt incredible. It's not like he hasn't been here here, but how could he be so downcast?

A dignified concubine, a few hundred taels a year, there are subsidies for every New Year's holiday, no matter how big the expenses are in the past, it will not be so miserable. Concubine Zhao is grounded, and the minions will never dare to take them out of the palace without permission, where did the disappeared things go? Did King An take it away? How did you get it out of the palace? How many were taken away? ……

Father-in-law Yu quickly separated several big palace maids and the beaten grandmother and quickly interrogated them.

Concubine Zhao is dizzy, which means that she has no backbone, has someone recruited her......

The emperor's face darkened as he listened to the announcement.

"Where does the money go?"

"It is said that a year ago, King An came one day while Concubine Zhao was taking a nap, and quietly gathered the palace people of Concubine Zhao, saying that he planned to give everyone some rewards and silver, as a reward for his title of king and everyone's hard-earned money after he went to the northwest. The palace people entered the side hall to receive the reward, but they didn't know that the door of the side hall was locked from the outside.

By the time they were released, Concubine Zhao's private treasury had been emptied. Concubine Zhao wanted to make a fuss after waking up, but King An bluntly told her that if she dared to make trouble, everyone in the palace would know that he had done this, and if she was used to play the topic at that time, then their mother and son would be finished. Concubine Zhao was so angry that she fainted at that time, but she had to accept it. The only consolation was that King An assured her that she would be rewarded for her efforts, and that her future gains would definitely satisfy her. ”

Father-in-law Yu said in one breath: "As for where the money went, King An hid it very secretly, and even Concubine Zhao didn't know, let alone those palace people. ”

"There are so many things, how did you take out the palace?"

"King An personally took it, as the prince, naturally no one dared to search him. And because they are all private things, there is no reason to stop them. But the old slave just asked people to go to the palace gate to check, saying that King An came in and out frequently in those days, and he should have taken away those things several times. ”

"He's got a job!" The emperor slapped the table, and the tea bowl jumped twice.

"Actually, Concubine Zhao fainted once that day, and when she woke up, she was really sad and couldn't think about it, so she fainted again. So Niangniang's illness should have been buried at that time. It has nothing to do with Princess Vinland and the county lord. ”

I see. No wonder Concubine Zhao has been so easily stimulated recently, it turns out that Vinlan's smashing is not the fuse, but adding fuel to the fire.
