Chapter 445: Dare to ask for a bribe, aren't you afraid of peeling the last straw?!
"Five thousand taels?"
Shang Jinghui didn't expect that this Liang An girl would open her mouth and directly ask for so many benefits.
This Liang Annu crossed her hands on her hips, shook her chest, and smiled disdainfully: "That's right!"
Shang Jinghui frowned after hearing this, and asked, "Why do you want so much, aren't you afraid of being skinned and grassed?!"
"Hey! If you want to give, you won't give, and if you don't give, get out of the house as soon as possible! This is the princess's mansion, what kind of royal law to scare the old lady!"
This Liang Annu suddenly changed her face, and directly pushed Shang Jinghui.
Seeing this, Xiao Chan, who was accompanying Shang Jinghui, hurriedly said, "You are bold! Dare to push our princess!"
"Humph!"
Liang Annu disagreed.
"Yo! What's going on?"
Because Concubine Zhou had been entrusted by Concubine Zheng Guifei earlier to take care of Princess Shouning, she would occasionally come to Princess Shouning to take a look, so as not to really make Concubine Zheng blame her in nature.
And it just so happened that on this day, Concubine Zhou came to Princess Shouning.
As soon as Liang Annu saw that it was Concubine Zhou coming, she directly sued the wicked person first, walked over and knelt directly in front of Concubine Zhou, crying and grabbing the ground: "Concubine Niangniang, you want to be the master of the old slave!" Otherwise, the old slave will not live, woo!"
"What's going on?"
"Madame, get up and speak carefully?"
The palace maids with higher status in the palace are generally honored as Mrs., so Concubine Zhou also calls Liang Annu Mrs.
Liang Annu cried backwards and said, "The princess of Dongping Wangfu has to come to see the princess at this time, I said that His Royal Highness has already slept, who knows that the princess doesn't believe it, and she wants to break in!"
"Did you ever say that the princess slept? Besides, I was summoned by the princess."
Shang Jinghui argued.
"Nonsense!"
Liang Annu shouted, and then said, "She wants to break in, for the sake of the public, I naturally want to stop the old slave!"
"But who knew that she slandered me, saying that I was asking for a bribe, and that I insisted on bribing me with 5,000 gold, and that she wanted to skin me and grass me. Concubine Niangniang, listen, how can there be such an evil person in this world, woo! relied on his husband's power to lean towards the government and the opposition, and also followed the rampant and domineering! Rather than being wronged and skinned, the old slave might as well be dead now! Woo!"
After hearing this, Concubine Zhou pretended to be surprised and said, "There is such a thing?"
Liang Annu continued to cry and said, "The old slave still dares to lie, who will have nothing to provoke the princess of King Dongping, the concubine Niangniang, you are Mingjian, that is the uncle of the country who leans towards the government and the opposition!"
Concubine Zhou also looked at Shang Jinghui angrily at this time.
Shang Jinghui's refusal to ask for equity for King Rui in front of Zhang Gui had already made her hold a grudge.
Now seeing that Liang Annu said that Shang Jinghui was going to peel the housekeeper and her own cousin beside Princess Shouning, she looked at Shang Jinghui like a fire.
Shang Jinghui hurriedly explained, "I didn't, I really didn't!"
Syllable!
Concubine Zhou came over and directly slapped Shang Jinghui, which made Shang Jinghui's beautiful face hurt hotly, and her autumn-like eyes instantly burst into tears.
Concubine Zhou said to Shang Jinghui through gritted teeth at this time: "Others are afraid of your Dongping Palace, but I am not afraid! It's nothing more than forcing me to death like Concubine Liu and Concubine Li! Kill my son again! And what! Anyway, now that your Zhang family is already riding on the head of my Zhu family, it's not interesting to live carefully, so it's better to tear your face from now on!"
Although Concubine Zhou said this, in fact, she dared to do this now, only because she already knew Shang Jinghui's character very well, knew that she was gentle and unwilling to quarrel, and because she was born in a famous family, she paid special attention to the upbringing emphasized by Confucianism and respected the elderly, so she became so spicy at this time.
Shang Jinghui really didn't say anything, and even grabbed the maid Xiaochan, who wanted to argue for her again, but left in a hurry with some shame and fear.
Shang Jinghui didn't say this to Zhang Gui after returning home, she didn't want to cause trouble in the city because of such a thing, so that more people would say that Zhang Gui was domineering and didn't take the concubine or anything else.
It's just that on this day, Shang Jinghui came to the queen again, and the queen knew that Shang Jinghui went to Princess Shouning's mansion, so when she asked about her trip to Princess Shouning's mansion, Shang Jinghui told the queen what happened to Princess Shouning's mansion.
Empress Zhang Yan was silent for a while after hearing this, and then asked, "Does my brother know about this?"
"Who knows!"
Shang Jinghui replied with a smile and said, "Niangniang should know that His Royal Highness and His Majesty are the same charcoal temperament, if you really know, but no matter what elders are not elders, and no matter whether they are harmonious or not, even if they bear the infamy of a tyrant and minister, they must first uphold the royal law."
Zhang Yan smiled and nodded, "You're right!"
Then, Zhang Yan held Shang Jinghui's hand and said, "It's right that you don't say it. endure for a while, calm and calm; Take a step back and open the sky. Our Zhang family has already obtained enough holy scrolls, and the powerful people in the world, especially the clan, don't know what to envy our Zhang family, and the civil officials may not be willing to see our Zhang family always be so good."
"The last time my brother didn't return to Beijing, he caused the dissatisfaction of the powerful bureaucrats in the city, and I am really worried that he will make the people of the world hate the Zhang family from now on. Fortunately, he finally gave His Majesty face and returned to Beijing."
"But everyone knows that the powerful bureaucrats in the city will not be jealous of my Zhang family anymore because of this, especially when they think that if the crown prince ascends the throne in the future, the Zhang family will undoubtedly cook oil and flowers in the future, and become more prosperous, but I am afraid that the jealousy and hatred will be heavier. Now that you are the daughter-in-law of Zhangmen, it is really rare for you to be so knowledgeable and not domineering, and you are worthy of being the daughter of the Zhedong Shi clan, that is, you are knowledgeable!"
Shang Jinghui pursed his lips and smiled shyly and said, "If you talk about the general situation, where can you match Niangniang, when Concubine Li slapped Niangniang, Niangniang didn't say what to do with her."
Zhang Yan sighed: "Speaking of which, our majesty has a clear distinction between love and hate, but he didn't be lenient because Concubine Li was an elder."
"Your Majesty also had to do it, and Concubine Li did commit a big taboo at that time!"
Shang Jinghui said.
Zhang Yan nodded, "I know."
Then, Zhang Yan smiled bitterly as if she had realized something, and said, "After all, we are women, and it is inevitable that we will have the kindness of women. You still tell your brother about it, husband and wife don't dare to hide it, Your Majesty hates me the most for hiding from him, and so must my brother. But after you tell him, you must persuade him, it is easy for the Son of Heaven to kill the concubine and leave a bad name, let alone a relative of him."
"Yes!"
……
"Neither will the royal shares!"
When Shang Jinghui returned to the Dongping Palace, Zhang Gui rejected Zhu Changrun, the king of Hui, who asked him to help persuade Tianqi to give him a part of the royal shares in Hanhai Coal Mine, and said:
"The royal stake is the foundation for the Son of Heaven and the Son of Heaven to maintain the majesty of the royal family, although you are a clan, you cannot shake the foundation of the royal family!"
Syllable!
Zhu Changrun was a grumpy person, and he slapped the table and got up and said, "Zhang Gui! Lone didn't say that the part of the imperial treasury was moved, it was the royal shares, what does it have to do with you, it's just for you to pass a message to Your Majesty, and you need to put your beak? I want your Zhang family to take care of my Zhu family's affairs?!"
"It is clear that the emperor is a good emperor, and it is your Uncle Zhang's reputation in the bad emperor that makes him fall into the name of being stingy with his clan relatives! The queen mother and your princess are more knowledgeable than you, and they were slapped by Concubine Zhou, and they also know that His Holiness is not responsible! On the contrary, you dare to teach Lone directly, Lone is the emperor's uncle today, where is your turn to shout here!"
Zhang Gui's face sank when he saw this.
