Three kings in one door. Plus an old prince. There is no one who can threaten the status of Prince Xiao's Mansion anymore. And Xiao Yuan's title is "Xiao", which is also of great significance.

For a while, everyone flocked to the city, and they all wanted to use the name of congratulations to get close. Prince Xiao's Mansion did not accept anything, but closed its doors to thank guests.

No matter how outsiders talk about it, the palace is still as calm as ever.

If you want to say that your heart is the most unbalanced, it is Gu Qingxuan's acquiescence.

He has been loved by the emperor since he was born, and he is the most proud of Xiao Yuan to be crowned the king of the two counties.

Now that Xiao Yuan has turned into King Xiao, he is still a small county king.

Gu Qingxuan was unhappy, very unhappy.

pestered the eldest princess of Zhaoyang, and had to enter the palace to see the emperor and ask for an understanding. The eldest princess is relying on the emperor's favor and really wants to go. was stopped by Gu Xiaohao's words. These two ancestors did not do this when they died.

The emperor's words, how can they be allowed to put their beaks.

The eldest princess also complained: "What does the father think, why did the king forget Xuan'er?" ”

Gu Xiao wiped his sweat, did the emperor forget, he didn't want to seal it at all! But if he really told the eldest princess like this, the eldest princess would definitely enter the palace immediately. After so many years of husband and wife, Gu Xiao can be regarded as understanding the temperament of the eldest princess. No matter what you say, you have to follow her, and you can't disobey her. Otherwise, it's not over with you.

Gu Xiao pondered his words and said, "Maybe the emperor just forgot about it for a while, and he remembered it in a few days." Let's go and say it now, as if we were rushing to ask for the throne. ”

When the eldest princess heard this, she changed her mind. Hmph, a small throne, does she still need to ask for it?

Gu Qingxuan pursed his lips, it's good to ask for it, otherwise how can he brag to a group of fox friends in the future? I also wanted to instigate the eldest princess, but Gu Xiao swept her over with an eye knife, wilted. He's still afraid of his father. Don't look at the one who loves him in front of the eldest princess, when he goes out of the house, he scolds him as if he picked it up.

Gu Xiao comforted the eldest princess on her lips, but she actually didn't know the bottom in her heart. He didn't think about it for the sake of face, but about the situation in Beijing. The emperor trusts Prince Xiao's Mansion so much, and for them, they don't know whether it is good or bad.

But when Qingxuan married Xiao Yueluo, how to say it, it was also a family. Gu Xiao was a little relieved.

The palace is very quiet, Xiao Ran is far away in Nanyi, no one disturbs, and the moon house has been very quiet these days. On the Pleasant Goat side, Shen Qingru can be regarded as the shopkeeper.

There are a few Aunt Liu in small things, and Jiang Zifeng in big things, and there are very few things that need to be dealt with by her.

As soon as people are idle, time flies.

In a flash, most of the month has passed.

Xiao Ran hasn't heard from her side yet, and Shen Qingru is a little worried, after all, it's someone else's territory. Safety is the most important thing.

Xiao Yuan was not in a hurry at all, and trusted Xiao Ran very much. Shen Qingru had no choice but to believe him.

Besides, she had more important things to worry about.

The old prince's birthday is coming. It's definitely going to be done.

This matter fell on the heads of Shen Qingru and the princess. Shen Qingru also had to consider a birthday gift for the old prince.

Since returning to the palace, the old prince has also cared for their mother and son. This gift should naturally be intimate.

Before this, Shen Ningru and Shen Wanru were also going to get married. No matter what the relationship is, you have to go back to the Hou Mansion to have a look, and you have to give makeup.

Things were crowded together, and Shen Qingru sighed, she was really born to work hard.

It's only been a few days of leisure, and I'm starting to keep my feet on the ground again. When Xiao Ran came back, the lobster shop opened, and he had to be even more busy.

Shen Qingru arranged an itinerary for herself. The first thing is to go back to the Hou Mansion.

Speaking of which, she has not returned to her parents' house until now.

It's just that every time I make fresh food or get something good, I will send a copy to the Hou Mansion, which can be regarded as a chat about my heart.

Shen Qingru picked out a jade-colored wicker skirt and draped a cloud silk cloak on her shoulders. He only carried a milky white jade bracelet on his hand. There is not much decoration, simple and generous.

She was afraid that she would be dressed too brightly, and Shen Ningru looked like an eyesore, don't think she was going to play prestige.

is going to get married in a few days, and Shen Qingru doesn't want to worry too much.

Tian Makeup chose a set of red gold Ruyi jewelry and a set of pearl and jasper jewelry. These two sets of jewelry can be worth a thousand taels each, and the style should be ordinary. In this way, it shows sincerity, not too casual, nor out of line.

This bothering is for the sake of Shen Kuo and Old Lady Shen's face.

Shen Kuo's recent days are estimated to have not been smooth. Shen Qingru didn't want to bother him anymore.

When they arrived at the Hou Mansion, Shen Mingru hadn't arrived yet, and the two made an appointment to come over today.

Shen Qingru went to the old lady first.

Along the way, there are red silks hanging everywhere, and the decoration is very festive. It's just that the people are in a hurry, and there is no joy on their faces.

Seeing that Shen Qingru was puzzled, Shen Lu, who followed, said in a low voice: "The Ming State Mansion and the Ji Mansion don't give much dowry. Madame made a fuss about it several times. I also think that the dowry given by the house is less, and I go to quarrel with the old lady every day. Hou Ye was angry twice. ”

Anyway, from top to bottom, no one is happy. The subordinates were frightened one by one, and they were still happy.

Shen Qingru didn't know what to say when he heard this.

She had heard about the dowry.

The Ming State Mansion first said 10,000. It's not much, but it's acceptable. Fang Clan was a little dissatisfied and endured it. The daughter is going to marry into someone else's family, and she also knows that it is not good to be stiff.

As for Gu Fu, because she is a side concubine, she is only willing to give six thousand. This is low, but the Fang family really loves their two daughters. I endured it too.

It would be nice for her to subsidize a little more. There are two daughters in Hengzhu, and it will not be their turn to inherit the Hou Mansion in the future, so it is good to have more silver now.

I just hope that Shen Ningru and Shen Wanru will marry in the past, and the two families can look at this heart and treat them well.

Unexpectedly, the Duchess of Mingguo heard about it and quit. 10,000 taels were not given, but it was reduced to 8,000 taels.

Duchess Mingguo has been holding her breath. Shen Ningru didn't look down on her son, and would rather marry into the Gu Mansion as a side concubine than marry into the Guogong Mansion as the wife of the prince.

Isn't this a slap in the face of the national government? said that her son was not as good as the king of Changle County!

If someone pays 6,000, he can marry back, and he is still a side concubine. On her side, she vacated the position of Mrs. Zheng, plus 10,000 taels of silver.

What did the Duchess of Mingguo think, how did she think that Shen Wanru was not worth this money.

In fact, the Duchess of Mingguo was also stunned and was playing a scoundrel. This account is not calculated like this, of course the main room and the concubine room are different.

The Fang family was in a hurry, and Gu Fu came to kick again.

If the Ming Kingdom Mansion wants to reduce the price, they want it too. down to four thousand taels.

Shen Ningru was the Fang family's pain since she was a child, and even in the Fang family's heart, she valued Shen Wanru a little more than Shen Wanru.

has been counting on Shen Ning to marry a rich and prosperous person.

Now that Gu Qingxuan's innocence has been ruined, he has to marry him. This Gu family is not taken seriously, and they are despised again and again.

The Fang clan directly made trouble with the Gu Mansion, and this family affair was almost not done.

And what Fang is most angry about is that no matter how much trouble she makes, Hou Ye doesn't care about it. It's like the three of them, mother and daughter, as air.

also moved from the study to Youlanxuan, looking at Wen's portrait every day, stunned.

A dead man, now a pile of bones, what's there to see!

So the flames of war burned from outside the house to inside the house.

For the sake of their two daughters, the Fang family had already broken the jar, and they didn't expect to win the favor of the Hou Ye. Every day is like a cockfight, blocking the Hou Ye.

Shen Kuo was forced by her to have no choice, and he didn't care at all.

I talked to Ming Guogong and Gu Xiao.

The former didn't know about it yet, and the latter just joined in the fun. Two thousand taels, no one really cares.

I won't turn my in-laws into enemies for this money.

Shen Kuodu came to find it in person, and of course he agreed.

This is a peaceful matter.

At this point, Shen Qingru still admires the Fang family. Personal grievances aside, the Fang family is sincere and good to Shen Ningru as a sister. In addition to teaching her daughter to the crooked path, in other aspects, she is a good mother.

It's just that the Fang clan seems to have tasted the sweetness. Not only did they confiscate, but they made the trouble even more fierce.

Before Shen Kuo, it was a dowry. Now make trouble with the old lady, for the dowry.

When Shen Qingru and Shen Mingru got married, the dowry and the bottom of the box added up, a total of 100,000 taels.

Fang knew that. And I was jealous for a long time, and I wanted to intercept it, but the old lady watched it closely, so it didn't work.

Da Xiao married a daughter, but only one or two thousand. The amount of 100,000 taels is worth the princess and the princess marrying.

Among them, the Hou Mansion Gongzhong actually only paid 10,000 taels each. It is also the specification of a normal marquis's daughter.

For the rest, Hou Ye gave five thousand taels. The old lady gave five thousand taels.

The big head is Wen's dowry. Wen's dowry was unusually generous that year. For more than ten years, it has been the old lady who has taken care of it. Doubled several times.

When Shen Qingru's sisters got married, the old lady didn't keep any of them, and divided them into two parts, one and a half. 60,000 taels each.

There are still 20,000 taels, and the Pingyang Marquis Mansion has 10,000 taels. Mrs. Wen gave out 10,000 taels.

Pingyang Houfu is Wen's maiden family, and the current Pingyang Hou is Wen's brother. Needless to say, Mrs. Wen is the father of the Wen family and the ancestor of Shen Qingru.

The Wen family rarely came out to socialize because of the old lady's kindness. But the background is still there.

And the old lady has two children in Pingyang Hou and Wen in her life.

Wen's early death made the old lady heartbroken. pinned his thoughts on his deceased daughter on her two children.

Shen Mingru often walked around the Pingyang Marquis Mansion. Shen Qingru, because of the Fang family, has always been alienated from the Pingyang Hou Mansion.

But the dowry, both of them gave.

It adds up to 100,000 taels.

Counting up, even if you add the Hou Ye and the old lady, the Hou Mansion is only 20,000 taels. The Fang clan didn't come out at all.

When it came to Shen Ningru's sisters, it was still according to the old routine.

10,000 in the middle of the public.

The old lady and the Hou Ye were not too partial, and still gave five thousand taels each.

Twenty thousand taels is actually not less.

The Fang clan made up for it by himself, and he was better than most people.

The bad thing is that the Fang clan is bad. When she married into the house, her mother's family was still an uncle, and she married in as a concubine. The dowry is pitiful. There is not even a shop.

It's just a little money, and the usual rewards for people, jewelry, clothes, etc., are gone.

Later, he became a wife, and the Hou Mansion was going downhill. Day-to-day expenses need to be streamlined. She has been in charge of the house for so many years, and there is really not much oil and water.

In the hands of Shen Ningru's sisters, there will be even less. and Shen Qingru, they can't be compared at all.
