The snow is getting heavier and heavier tonight, but many places in Gusu City are still brightly lit.

Xi Zhu held the umbrella for Cui Jiuheng, and said dissatisfiedly: "Childe, didn't you say you wouldn't come, why did you still come." ”

Cui Jiuheng was wearing a heavy coat, and he also held a hand stove in his hand hidden in his sleeve, and he raised his eyes to look at the attic in front of him, with an unknown expression.

Seeing that he was silent, the West Candle did not speak again.

After a long time, Cui Jiuheng said to him: "The princess has a noble status, what do you say about being here all day long, you go and invite the princess out." ”

West Candle: "... Childe knows, subordinates, please don't move. ”

Cui Jiuheng was silent, and then said, "Then you take off the jade pendant from my waist and take the jade pendant to invite." ”

Xi Candle's face was expressionless: "My subordinates have taken a total of twenty-nine jade pendants from the prince to invite the princess in this kind of place, but in the end, let alone the princess, even the jade pendant couldn't be brought out." ”

The jade pendant is like a meat bun beating a dog, and it will never go back.

Cui Jiuheng: "You just have to go, I'm here to invite, and if the princess can't come out, it has nothing to do with me." ”

Xi Zhu had no choice but to respond: "Yes." ”

He wanted to hand the umbrella to Cui Jiuheng, but it could be seen that his hands were in his sleeves, so he turned his head to look around, beckoned to the nearest vendor, and gave him a silver ingot: "Please hold the umbrella for my son-in-law for a while." ”

Cui Jiuheng's hand that he wanted to withdraw silently put it back.

The vendor was shocked and took the silver: "Okay, good." ”

Is there such a pie-dropping good thing in this world?!

Isn't this a new scam?

But what does he think, the son in front of him is a golden nobleman, even if he wants to cheat, he can't deceive him, the small vendor gritted his teeth after repeatedly calculating in his heart, no matter what, such a big ingot of silver, he may not be able to earn it for a few days!

Wealth and danger are sought!

After the small vendor made up his mind, he dutifully held an umbrella for Cui Jiuheng, such a big ingot of silver, it was his fault that the son poured a snowflake.

Cui Jiuheng naturally didn't know what the little vendor was thinking, so he just stared at the attic door with a calm face.

So, the vendor had a conjecture.

This can't be this kind of place to catch a lady, right?

But what lady would put such a good-looking Lang Jun and come to this kind of place.

But the vendors didn't dare to ask that.

After about a stick of incense, Xi Zhu walked out of the attic, walked up to Cui Jiuheng with an ugly face, and took the small vendor's umbrella.

The vendor was stunned and guilty: "This, just for such a while, this is too much, right?" ”

"It doesn't matter."

West Candle said with a dark face.

Seeing that his face was so ugly, the vendor quickly thanked him and ran away.

After the vendor walked away, Xi Zhu said, "The jade pendant is gone." ”

The princess was not invited out either.

This result seemed to be expected by Cui Jiuheng, and he hummed lightly: "Go back." ”

The two turned around and walked for a while, and Xi Zhu finally couldn't help it, and said: "Childe, can you not let your subordinates go in next time, your subordinates are always treated as small people, and the woman here is simply, it's too much..."

Cui Jiuheng's eyes slanted slightly, and he saw a touch of fat pink on Xi Candle's chest, and the corners of his lips raised slightly: "Okay." ”

West Candle: "... Childe also promised his subordinates the same way last time. ”

Cui Jiuheng said seriously: "The next time you go in, be fierce, just like when you just came out, no one will dare to approach you." ”

Xi Candle was stunned for a moment, and after a moment: "Okay, try it next time." ”

Cui Jiuheng's eyebrows bent slightly, and he didn't say anything more.

In the attic, a bright woman leaned against the window, hooked a jade pendant with her fingers, staring at the figure downstairs, until the figure disappeared, she sneered, and plunged into the small pile again: "Come, keep drinking." ”

-

After Shen Yunshang brought Qing Yu back to Fuyao Courtyard, he gave her a vacation and let her recuperate in the house; Qing Yu locked herself in the house for a day and a night, and it was only the next night that she came to see Shen Yunshang.

Shen Yunshang was leaning on the soft floor to get his manicure at that time, Yuwei was roasting oranges on the side, and Qing Yu knelt down in front of Shen Yunshang as soon as he came in.

Shen Yunshang straightened up: "Get up and speak." ”

Qing Yu didn't get up, but kowtowed heavily: "Slave thank the girl for saving her life." ”

Shen Yunshang heard her voice and knew that this should be relieved, so he said in a soft voice: "You are the person in front of me, I have my own responsibility to protect you, hurry up." ”

Qing Yu still didn't get up, she took out something from her arms and presented it to Shen Yunshang: "The slave is willing to sell herself to Miss, I don't know that Miss may take in the slave." ”

Shen Yunshang recognized it at a glance as her household registration.

She frowned and said, "In this case, you are a slave." ”

"The slave is willing to be a slave, just to be able to serve the young lady by her side for a lifetime." Qing Yu's tone was firm, obviously having made up his mind.

After Shen Yunshang was silent for a moment, he took her household registration and helped her up: "The ground is cold, get up first." ”

Qing Yu looked at her stubbornly: "Miss agreed?" ”

Shen Yunshang smiled: "Well, I promised, can I get up?" ”

Qing Yu kowtowed again before standing up.

Yuwei casually took a low stool and handed it over, Qing Yu didn't dare to pick it up for a while, and when she heard Shen Yunshang let her sit, she took the low stool and thanked Yuwei again.

"Your household registration will be placed with me first." Only then did Shen Yunshang say to her: "Put it in your hands, your family... I'm also a little worried, if you are willing to stay with me, I will have your deed prepared tomorrow. ”

Does that mean you don't want her?

Qing Yu hurriedly stood up in fright: "Miss, slave..."

Before she finished speaking, Yuwei pressed her shoulder and sat her back, and Qing Yu looked back and forth at the two of them in disbelief, very at a loss.

"You're not a slave, you don't have to." After Shen Yunshang signaled Yuwei to let go, he said softly: "You are also about to reach the end of your life, if you don't become a slave, you can say that you will be a better person in the future, how can you waste your life on me." ”

"But I..."

"No, but." Shen Yunshang interrupted her: "Could it be that you are worried that I will sell you too?" ”

"No, that's not what the slave meant."

Qing Yu hurriedly explained, she subconsciously wanted to get up and kneel down again, but after looking at Yuwei beside her, she couldn't help but move, and sat tremblingly on the low stool.

"That's it."

Shen Yunshang: "Since you are willing to stay by my side, you can stay at ease, and other things will be talked about later." ”

"By the way, you haven't eaten yet, have you? Yuwei. ”

Without waiting for Qing Yu to speak, Shen Yunshang looked at Yuwei, who bowed her head slightly, turned around and went out.

"I, no, I..."

Qing Yu suddenly felt like he was on pins and needles.

"If you're not comfortable, go with Yuwei." Shen Yun business.

Qing Yu hurriedly stood up: "Yes, the slave and maid retired." ”

Seeing that both of them walked out, Shen Yunshang stretched out his hand to the oranges on the stove, but his fingers only touched it, and Yuwei's voice came from the window: "Miss ate too much oden yesterday, some of them are on fire, and you can only eat one orange." ”

Shen Yunshang gritted his teeth.

She has eyes behind her back.

But in the end, Shen Yunshang was obedient and only ate one.

As the night deepened, the sound of falling snow could be heard quietly.

Shen Yunshang leaned on the soft collapse and fell into deep thought.

Although she and Pei Xingzhao have reached an agreement, it is easy to say but difficult to do.

A few days ago, the princess had seen her.

"You should guess my identity, then we will get straight to the point, I have taken a fancy to Pei Xingzhao, it is imperative for him, whether you let him or not, he will be my concubine."

'But I advise you to be good, so that you are good, I am good, everyone is good'

'The Shen family is the richest man in Gusu, one of the four families, and he is a figure with a head and a face, but compared with the royal family, it is a grasshopper shaking the tree, and this princess can't get it, then no one can think about it, what this princess means, do you understand? ’

How could she not understand.

If she agrees, she and Pei Xingzhao will be separated, if she doesn't agree, it will be a farewell, and the Shen family, the Bai family, and even the Pei family will not end well.

And she also understands that since the princess threatens her, then Pei Xingzhao should have heard such words, but the difference is that it has become her and the Pei family who threaten Pei Xingzhao.

So, in her previous life, she had no choice.

But now that she knew what kind of path it was, she was naturally unwilling to repeat the mistakes of the past.

But in such a situation, if she wants to get out of the situation, what should she do?

As the princess said, she is just a grasshopper shaking a tree in the royal family, and there is only one advantage, that is, she has lived for three more years...

Shen Yunshang's eyes tightened, and he sat up suddenly.

Perhaps, the three years she lived longer were the key to her breaking the game, because she was tantamount to predicting the future and could take the lead in many things.

So what future can solve her current dilemma?

First of all, this incident must happen nearby, and it must be able to suppress Zhao Chengbei...

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in Shen Yunshang's mind.

A gleam of joy gradually appeared in her eyes.

There is really one that meets this condition!

Today's snow came early, and the red plum blossoms also bloomed in advance, because this year's winter was exceptionally long and cold, so that the border did not get enough cotton clothes in time, and many soldiers froze to death, and many places were affected by the snow disaster, starving to death and freezing to death.

She was married to the Cui family in early December, and Cui Jiuheng was extremely busy in that half a month, so a person who was afraid of the cold went out early and returned late, personally took people to various families to raise donations, and in order to raise enough cotton clothes in time and send them to various borders, people who had never blushed with people on weekdays did not hesitate to fight with courtiers in the court, and finally, sent cotton clothes and grain to the border and disaster areas in time, relieved the difficulties of the border passes, and saved hundreds of people.

And the second prince Zhao Chengbei donated 200,000 taels of silver, and the prince's mansion ate vegetarian food for three months, and because of this, Zhao Chengbei's name was remembered by hundreds of people in Nanye.

Wrong...

Shen Yunshang narrowed his eyes slightly.

The family's fundraising work is not a good errand, but the second prince and the Cui family let Cui Jiuheng do it, will this mean... The DPRK and China really can't get food!

Shen Yunshang's eyes were slightly shocked, so at this time, the treasury was empty?!

So how is Zhao Chengbei's 200,000 taels...

Shen Yunshang seemed to have thought of something, and his face sank suddenly.

She seems to understand a little why the third princess takes a fancy to Pei Xingzhao, which one of them takes a fancy to Pei Xingzhao, but they take a fancy to the Pei family's money!

If this is the case, then she and Pei Xingzhao are really two big grievances!

Shen Yunshang took a deep breath and tried her best to suppress the anger that was bubbling up, but in the end, she still couldn't hold back and scolded: "Zhao Chengbei, it's really doggy!" ”

As soon as Yuwei came in, she heard this, and she was shocked: "Miss! ”

Insulting the prince is a felony!

"There's no one around but you."

Shen Yunshang huffed angrily, and then she said, "You go and count how much private money I have now." ”

Yuwei was stunned for a moment, her front foot was still scolding Zhao Chengbei, why did her back foot start counting her private money?

But she didn't ask, and went straight to the order.

Soon, she returned: "There are 30,000 taels in total." ”

The Shen family is one of the four families of Gusu and Suzhou, and is also the richest man in Gusu, since Shen Yunshang was born, he has received enough love and has enough money, and later married into the Cui family, not to mention that Cui Jiuheng gave her a lot of money because of guilt, just the dowry given to her by the Shen Bai family She can't use it up for a few lifetimes, although in this fundraising, she gave most of the dowry, but the remaining money is enough for her to have food and clothing for a lifetime, so she really doesn't have much concept of silver money.

However, she heard Cui Jiuheng say that many places have been affected by disasters this winter, and the disaster relief silver in a few cities in Bianguan alone is as high as one million.

Now she has no dowry, and her private money is only 30,000...

This is not enough.

"Where's the shop in my name?"

After Shen Yunshang finished speaking, she didn't wait for Yuwei to answer, she said: "You go now and get back all the money that can be withdrawn from each shop, don't disturb anyone, and don't let anyone make a noise." ”

Yuwei was stunned, and while turning around to change her clothes, she said, "What does Miss want so much money for?" ”

"I'm going to do something big."

Shen Yunshang narrowed his eyes and gritted his teeth.

Half of the more than one million taels of disaster relief silver came from her and Pei Xingzhao, why should Zhao Chengbei be cheaper!

"Yuwei, where is the information of all the shops under my name?"

Yuwei hadn't figured out a clue from her 'doing a big thing', and when she heard this, she went to the cabinet and brought out a box for her: "It's all here." ”

"Hmm."

Shen Yunshang: "Go and come back quickly, don't let anyone... Especially the surname Zhao's perception, we may be targeted by him. ”

Yuwei was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Yes." ”

After Yuwei left, Shen Yunshang began to look through the booklet in the box.

The shop under her name has the gifts given to her by her mother and grandmother on weekdays, as well as the gifts she received during the ceremony, adding up to a whole box.

Collecting a million taels of silver is a small matter, it is really not enough, she will go to her mother tomorrow to make a fool, and the day after tomorrow she will go to her grandmother to cheat the dowry in advance, and the most important thing at the moment is how to avoid Zhao Chengbei's eyes and ears to send the silver to several borders.

The people stationed on the border are all the generals of the DPRK and China, and with the protection of these people, Zhao Chengbei has to weigh them if he wants to move them again.

But obviously, she is a beautiful lady and has no manpower available.

So, she thought of a dart game.

She vaguely remembered that in the shop that her grandmother gave her, there was a dart game, what was it called?

And at the same time, on the other side, the Pei family.

Lu Yang moved out all of Pei Xingzhao's belongings and put them in front of him: "Your private money and the profit of the shop add up, so much in total." ”

Pei Xingzhao couldn't believe it: "As the eldest son of the richest man in Jiangnan, I only have less than 200,000 taels of silver?" ”

Lu Yang snorted coldly, stretched out his hand to him and gestured from top to bottom, and then gestured towards the house: "Look at your body, eight sets a month, and then look at your house, every quarter, the eldest son like you, the richest man in Jiangnan can afford to support you." ”

The more Lu Yang spoke, the more unfair he became, and he just wanted to write the word loser and paste it on Pei Xingzhao's face.

Pei Xingzhao looked at his bejeweled self, and then at his gorgeous and dazzling bedroom.

Just when Lu Yang felt that he should be ashamed of what he had done, he heard him grit his teeth and say, "Lao Tzu used to live such a magnificent life!" It's so cool! ”

The devil knows how much he was wronged in the princess's mansion!

Not to mention a few strings of gold beads hanging around your waist, you don't even have to hang a string on the bed!

Green Poplar: "...."

"Childe, will you teach me how to reincarnate?"

"Simple, I'll kill you, send you to reincarnation, and be my brother."

"Madame will probably kill you first."

Pei Xingzhao: "Is there any way to get a lot of money at once?" Otherwise, I'll be killed first. ”

"Then you will leave the inheritance to your younger brother in the next life, which is me?" Green Yang: "How much?" ”

"One million taels."

Lu Yang didn't think about it: "Robbery." ”

Pei Xingzhao: "Who to rob?" ”

"Your father, the head of the Pei family."

Pei Xingzhao: "... Do you want to be beaten again? ”

"Then apart from your father, you say, what else can you do to get so much money at once?" Lu Yang looked at him expressionlessly.

Pei Xingzhao frowned, and after thinking for a moment: "What you said may not be unreasonable. ”

"Do you know where my father put the key to the storeroom?"

Lu Yang gasped: "Farewell!" ”

Pei Xingzhao grabbed his back collar: "Come back!" That's not your idea? ”

Lu Yang stared at him for a long time, and finally only held back a few words: "Are you crazy?!" ”

Can't you hear him babbling? robbing his own father, I am afraid that the prodigal man in front of him will dare to do it.
