Chapter 804: Greeting Relatives
The movement in the courtyard soon alarmed countless eunuchs and palace maids to rush in, and a male duck shouted in a delicate and contrived voice: "Hurry up, hurry, the good day is approaching, quickly change the prince into auspicious clothes! Alas, the prince, how can you use force on this happy day?"
Lin Qi's aura had not yet dissipated, and when he heard this voice, he glared at the eunuch leader fiercely.
Like the ruthless glance of a mad tiger before pounced, the eunuch sat on the ground with a frightened butt, and his body trembled and did not dare to move. Bliss walked up to the eunuch leader with a smile, bent down in front of him, and said softly, "You can't forget your duty." In this mansion, the prince is the prince, and he is just a slave, even if he is the leader of the slaves, he is only a slave!"
Gently but indifferently glanced at the eunuch's small neck, and said lightly: "Listen, these eunuchs and palace maids, the prince is kind, but Bliss is not a good-natured person. In this mansion, there are rules about what to do and what not to do, what can be said and what cannot be said. ”
Many eunuchs and palace maids stood there in silence and did not dare to move, the aura emanating from the body of Paradise had already shocked all of them, it was a kind of desperate fear that Xiao He Miao would be burned by the scorching sun and might be burned to ashes at any time. Bliss said coldly: "These rules will slowly be figured out one by one." In this process, some people will be driven out, some people will be killed with a rod, and some people will be exterminated by the Nine Clans, what to do, you will know. ”
Coldly swept over these eunuchs and palace maids, and Bliss snorted coldly: "What are you still stunned about? Change the prince into auspicious clothes, and let the welcoming team get ready." Make it clear to the people below, who dares to make a little mistake today to make the prince lose face, exterminating the nine clans is just the easiest, there are 10,000 ways to bliss, so that your relatives are not at peace when they die, I don't believe we can try. ”
As soon as the terrifying aura was put away, these eunuchs and palace maids came to Lin Qi's side tremblingly, and cautiously changed their robes, shoes and socks for Lin Qi. If you say that at the beginning, these eunuchs and palace maids. If they still had some contempt for Lin Qi, the nouveau riche prince, after this warning from Paradise, and the terrifying power that they felt from Paradise, which was enough to control their life and death, they no longer dared to have any slackness.
Lin Qi was at the mercy of others like a wooden man, surrounded by many ceremonial officials, as well as Longcheng and other gentlemen who came to watch the excitement, Lin Qi led the mighty people and horses straight to the imperial city - the emperor's marriage. Naturally, the wedding is also married in the imperial city. A palace was temporarily opened in the imperial city for Princess Qingli to live temporarily, and Lin Qi wanted to marry Princess Qingli back there.
It was very smooth along the way, after all, there was the guidance of these court ceremonial officials under Tai George. The qiē ceremony is carried out meticulously, and there is nothing to find fault with. Only when entering the gate of the imperial city, Lin Qi needs to reward a large number of red envelopes. This made Lin Qi almost faint in heartache.
Lin Qi suddenly discovered that marrying a princess in the Blood Qin Empire, without hundreds of millions of net worth, really couldn't bear that kind of consumption.
There are four Praetorian Guard camps in the southeast, northwest and northwest of the Imperial City, and each Praetorian Guard camp is stationed with 50,000 gold armor guards all year round. There is a large camp of the Pure Army in the Imperial City, and all the eunuchs stationed in it are eunuch armies who practice the secret Taiyin Exercises and have strong combat effectiveness, and these eunuch armies also have 200,000 people.
There are many queen mothers, queens, many concubines, unmarried princesses, and underage princes in the imperial city, and there are about 100,000 palace maids and eunuchs who serve these nobles, plus those who cook, sweep the floor, repair flowers and trees, wash clothes, and sweep toilets and empty toilets. That's around 100,000.
When marrying a princess, nearly 7,800,000 red envelopes must be prepared when entering the door, and people are so vivid that if a princess marries a princess, is each red envelope too little to wrap up? Those miscellaneous servants have at least one tael of gold each, eunuchs and palace maids range from five taels to one thousand taels according to their ranks, and those guards range from 10 taels to 2,000 taels according to their official positions.
Starting from the Queen Mother, these nobles, princesses, and princes in the palace. Lin Qi still has to have a heart to send, otherwise if a place is not well opened, and any noble person does not open the gate of the imperial city, Lin Qi will not be able to enter the imperial city to greet his relatives.
So, the Queen Mother's side. At least a heavy gift worth one million taels of gold; the queen also has about 500,000 taels; Princess Qingli's biological mother and concubine have to be on par with the queen today; and the other huge number of concubines, concubines, and nobles. That would have to start at 100,000 taels.
"This is not marrying a daughter, this is selling a daughter!" Lin Qi heard the whispered prompt in his ear, only to feel a burst of Venus flashing in front of him. No matter how much dowry he gave out, Lin Qi was not heartbroken, because no matter how much dowry he sent, the Blood Qin royal family would only return more dowry to Lin Qi, and there was always something to dowry.
But these red envelopes that enter the door are really throwing money out.
Wrong is not that Bliss swept a sweep in the Blood Xiang Battle City, with Lin Qi's stingy nature, he really had the urge to give up this marriage and quickly run away. The emperor married his daughter, and he really didn't make a profit - what is even worse is that the founding emperor of the Blood Qin Empire, Yingzheng, started in the wilderness, and this wedding gift followed many folk traditions.
"The prince is rich, and this red envelope is nothing. Bliss narrowed his eyes and said softly: "As far as Bliss knows, the Blood Qin Empire once had a princess who won the championship in the scientific examination, and he owed countless debts after a wedding, and it was not until the third generation that the descendants paid off the arrears easily. So later, no one dared to marry a royal princess if they were not from a wealthy family. ”
After a pause, Bliss smiled lightly: "Princess Qingli is not afraid of having her own fiefdom, I'm afraid of those poor people who have the title of princess but no fiefdom, who is really unlucky who marries, even if this expense is a wealthy family, if it is not for the descendants of the descendants to inherit the family business, it will not be able to bear this expense." ”
Lin Qi's face finally looked a little better, and when he lamented his bad luck, he could hear the more unlucky things of his predecessors, which made his mood extremely cheerful. Laughing and watching Long Cheng and the others throw baskets of red envelopes into the walls of the imperial city, and hearing the cries of the gold-armored guards on the city wall, Lin Qi suddenly felt that he was in a very good mood.
Then, Bliss smiled again: "The prince is always different from those previous horses, so Bliss takes matters into his own hands and increases the gold to the red envelope tenfold, so the prince will definitely be praised by everyone in the imperial city in the future, this reputation is excellent, and there is no need to be afraid of people slandering him." ”
'Poof' smiled, and Bliss said softly: "This is a rare opportunity to openly bribe the people in the imperial city, Bliss has decided for the prince, I don't know if the prince has anything to add?"
Lin Qi's face turned snow-white, he looked at Elysium blankly for a long time, his body shook, and he nodded with difficulty: "Ha, since you have added it, then add it." Ten times that's not much, it's not much to buy a good name with money. ”
Bliss nodded happily: "Isn't it? For those eunuchs, palace maids and guards, Bliss is increased by ten times, and the example money for the chief eunuch is increased by 20 times, and the share of those nobles in the palace is increased by 50 times, and they are all obediently said good things about the prince." Anyway, the prince's family has a big business, and he doesn't lack such a little money, right?"
Lin Qi's body shook, and he felt a sudden sweetness in his throat and eyes. He took a deep look at Paradise, and finally decided that Paradise would be fine in the future, but his own finances couldn't let her interfere too much.
At this moment, Lin Qi missed Yun's little girl very much, she was a good girl who was careful and calculated every copper to the limit. And Yun can attract wealth and treasure for Lin Qi, think about it, in the clan land of the Yunlong family, Yun is cooperating with Lin Qi to bankrupt those elders of the Yunlong family!
This kind of righteous annihilation of relatives accumulates family property for Lin Qi, compared with the big-spending girl of Bliss, Lin Qi likes clouds even more!
With Lin Qiqiang squeezing out a smile, the huge, heavy, and incomparably expensive gate of the imperial city finally opened, and with the cheers of the guards, eunuchs, and palace maids who were like a tsunami, Lin Qi rode slowly into the imperial city.
Foreign ministers rode into the imperial city, except for those important ministers who had made outstanding achievements and received special gifts from the emperor, ordinary courtiers only had this time when the princess was married. Lin Qi drooped his face, and rode a carefully selected horse with a silver and white flawless coat into the imperial city, and walked towards the palace where Princess Qingli temporarily lived surrounded by a team of happy eunuchs.
Like a monkey, in the royal etiquette with a strong folk style, Lin Qi showed off his strength, carried a 10,000-pound tripod and walked around the palace a few times, and then sang a few songs and recited a few poems prepared in advance by the gunner, Lin Qi was finally allowed to enter the palace of Princess Qingli.
Following the strict court etiquette, Lin Qi didn't even see Princess Qingli's outfit today, and a group of palace maids surrounded Princess Qingli into a chariot with heavy makeup, and then Lin Qi was surrounded by people and left the palace again, and quickly walked towards his mansion.
Relatives and friends on both sides, as well as the guests who were supposed to celebrate, were already waiting there, waiting for Lin Qi to bring the princess home, and the next celebration would begin. Fortunately, Paradise was well prepared, and the mansion she bought was large enough to accommodate these guests, otherwise Lin Qi would have been really troublesome today.
The drums all the way were earth-shattering, and under the escort of a large group of palace maids and eunuchs and gold-armored guards, the huge welcoming team finally answered Lin Qi's Dongshun Palace, a tall black beard wearing a big red robe, and a group of family elders were already standing in front of the door.
