Chapter 131: Getting Rich Overnight

Jingxiu Palace!

Princess Lin'an's exquisite embroidered shoes stepped on the soft lichen, held the arm of the prince's brother, and entered Jingxiu Palace.

The room is as warm as spring, the floor heating dispels the cold of December, and the richly dressed concubine sits at the table, already setting up a sumptuous meal, smiling and waiting for a pair of children.

Chen Guifei is in her early forties, and she has long passed the age of a woman, and she is in the fullest and plump stage of a woman.

Her skin is still firm, her eyes are still rippling with watery light, her well-maintained figure has not been out of shape, and the years have precipitated the charm of woman's maturity in her.

Aside from the queen who captivated the country and the city, among the many beauties in the harem, Chen Guifei was the most capable of fighting.

So among the four princesses, only Lin'an can have a long time with the eldest princess... No, it's a competition.

"It's too hot, let the minions outside drop a charcoal fire. The energetic Princess Lin'an frowned.

She usually only needs to burn a charcoal fire, but the floor heating is so hot that it feels like she is in a steamer.

Chen Guifei, who had a gentle smile, immediately ordered: "Listen to Princess Lin'an, lower the charcoal fire." ”

Lin'an happily threw herself into her mother's arms, and smiled like a little girl: "Mother, the child stays here at night, is it okay to sleep with you." ”

Chen Guifei smiled and nodded gently.

Although this is not in line with the rules, after all, the concubines may have to serve the emperor at night, but in the Yuanjing Dynasty, because the emperor has been cultivating all the year round, he has long banned women's sex, and many rules in the harem have become like decorations.

The emperor cares about women, and the rules will be strict, but the emperor doesn't care about the beauties of his harem anymore, and on the premise of not making principled mistakes, what kind of love is there.

The so-called principled error...... Hey, hey, hey.

However, a state like Emperor Yuan Jing is not useless, at least the harem is very harmonious, and the concubines can't fight if they want to.

The prince accompanied his mother to do homework, and Princess Lin'an also chirped on the side.

"Today, the spirit dragon suddenly went berserk and almost injured Lin'an, and the father and the guards couldn't rescue him. The prince mentioned what had happened in the afternoon.

The Buddhist concubine was shocked, hurriedly took Princess Lin'an's hand, and looked at it in fear: "Is there any injury?" ”

The second princess is a coquettish framer, and she takes advantage of the situation as a grievance and pitiful expression: "The child almost can't see his mother." ”

The concubine was afraid for a while, and said angrily: "What's the matter with this group of minions, not a single beast can be subdued, and it almost hurt my son." ”

After she lost her temper, she held Princess Lin'an's soft treachery: "Later, it was the prince who saved you?"

The status of the crown prince is completely different from that of other princes, except for the queen, the rest of the concubines in the harem must be called the prince, and cannot be called "my son" or "emperor".

Lin'an wrinkled his nose at the prince and complained: "How can the prince's brother have this ability, every time Huaiqing bullies me, he only talks and doesn't help me beat Huaiqing." ”

The prince smiled bitterly and shook his head.

The concubine became more and more curious, glanced at the prince, and held her daughter's hand: "Tell my mother?"

Lin'an's charming peach blossom eyes suddenly bloomed: "I received a small gong today..... Well, it was the day before yesterday, and I was going to send it with me today, and it just so happened that he saved me. ”

"Gong..."Chen Guifei frowned: "Is it a watchman?"

"Uh-huh. Lin An said: "I know that the concubine doesn't like to fight people, because those are Wei Yuan's people, but he is my person." ”

Chen Guifei smiled and bowed: "Does Your Majesty have a reward?"

"Yes. The prince answered.

"This palace also has to be rewarded here," Chen Guifei said solemnly: "I will send someone to the treasury to get some jewelry and send it over." ”

The reward of the concubine, of course, cannot be a courtier, it should be the daughter of the courtier's family.

When the prince heard this, he suddenly frowned, "When did Xu Qi'an become your person?"

Princess Lin'an suddenly raised her snow-white chin and said proudly, "I snatched it from Huaiqing." ”

"Does Huaiqing know? ”

"Yes. ”

"Then she didn't teach you a lesson?"

"She dared to teach me a lesson.... I... I turned around and took Xu Qi'an to see her, both to protect her and to be angry with her. Speaking of which, Princess Lin'an was happy with her wit.

.....

In the December season, it is dark when it is dark.

When we set out from the Yamen, the sun was still hanging in the western sky, stubbornly dyeing the clouds into their own shape and color.

When I arrived at Xu's Mansion, the sky was completely blue, and lanterns were lit up, reflecting the pedestrians who returned late and the attics and tiled houses.

The blue sky, the bamboo lanterns, the antique buildings.... Every time Xu Qi'an saw this scene, he hated himself for not learning to paint in the first place.

At this point, the Xu Mansion has been closed, and the porter Lao Zhang knows that Da Lang never walks the door.

So when Xu Qi'an knocked on the door, Lao Zhang's face was full of surprise.

"Call the people in the house to come and move things. Xu Qi'an commanded.

Moving things?

Lao Zhang's gaze swept over Xu Dalang's shoulder, and looked at the three carriages behind him, as well as the watchmen who were traveling with him.

....

In the front hall, a family of four was eating, Xu Lingyue still didn't wait for her eldest brother to eat together today, she thought of him, hung her head, and asked, "Big brother hasn't been home on time for dinner for many days." ”

The candle flame flickered, her long eyelashes caught the light, and her sharp melon seed face shimmered with a warm jade-like luster.

With a fair-skinned and beautiful melon seed face and a pure and weak posture, if you put on a sailor suit, it is a school flower that conforms to the public's aesthetics.

Well, she is still a mixed-race school flower, Xu Lingyue's facial features are deeper and more three-dimensional than ordinary women.

"I'll have some leftovers for my eldest brother to eat. "Xu Lingyin and her sister are completely two extremes, the eldest brother is not there, and no one grabs food with her.

The stubby little hand pinched the chopsticks, and the chopsticks flew like flying, and the talent was amazing.

"Isn't it time to pay the moon in a few days?" the aunt looked at the second uncle.

Second Uncle Xu lowered his head to eat and said "um".

In fact, he has already overdrawn this month's monthly salary, and when the New Year is approaching, the entertainment and gifts between colleagues are all silver in vain.

..... Anyway, Ning Yan didn't marry a daughter-in-law, so he borrowed his money to deal with it first. Second Uncle Xu thought to himself.

"At the end of the year, I have to make clothes for Lingyue Lingyin and Dalang Erlang, and the silver is not enough. Auntie sighed.

Before going to Yunlu Academy last month, the family still had dozens of taels of silver in savings, but when I came back, it was empty....

The aunt was about to tear up the second uncle on the spot, saying if he went out to fool around.

It was Xu Dalang and Xu Erlang who vouched for their personalities, and the money was used to run relationships and do business, and they were by no means fools.

The aunt believed it.

Although Xu Dalang is a disliker, he has a stubborn personality and never lies. Xu Erlang is a scholar, and he is a sensible child from childhood to adulthood.

"It's just a matter of a few taels of silver. "Second Uncle Xu doesn't care.

The aunt glanced at him: "I want to buy a cloud brocade." ”

Second Uncle Xu raised his head in surprise, he didn't think that the current economic situation of the family could use one foot and one tael of Yunjin.

The aunt calculated it for him, saying that after Erlang Chunqiu, if he can win, his identity will be different, and he can't wear the previous robe all the time, no matter how precious it is, one can't hold up the field.

Lingyue is old enough to get married, and it's time for the dress in the closet to be renovated.

Second Uncle Xu listened absentmindedly, and was casually perfunctory.

Syllable!

The aunt slapped the chopsticks on the table, and everyone looked at them together.

The aunt picked up the chopsticks with an expressionless face, "Eat." ”

Second Uncle Xu said helplessly: "When the tax and silver case was filed, we all emptied our families, and I asked my colleagues to borrow the rice and noodles for the first month, wait for next year, and I will definitely buy it next year." ”

The aunt bowed her head and did not show him her reddish eyes.

"Be careful, be careful... Don't touch the wall, get dirty, see if the old man doesn't cut you. ”

The concierge Lao Zhang's scolding came.

Second Uncle Xu was in a bad mood, frowning, and the people in the house were holding horses of silk and satin, and under the command of the porter Lao Zhang, they came in cautiously.

Auntie's eyes widened as she watched in disbelief as the shiny satin horses moved in.

"It's so beautiful..."Xu Lingyue exclaimed.

Lu'e's eyes widened and she salivated.

Only Xu Lingyin loyally loves food, her little face is buried in the bowl, and her cheeks are bulging.

"Where, where did you get these?" Second Uncle Xu asked blankly.

The porter's old man unfolded a piece of coarse cloth and spread it on the ground, and while instructing his subordinates to put down the silk, he replied: "The one brought back by Da Lang said that it was given to him by His Majesty." ”

Second Uncle Xu's first reaction was that the Sambo case had been solved?

As a hundred households of the Imperial Sword Guard, he is on duty in the outer city on weekdays, and he doesn't know what is in the inner city, and the Sangbo case is full of wind and rain in the inner city, but the people who are not strong enough cannot access the relevant information.

Thinking that he had been stuck in the Qi Cultivation Realm for nearly twenty years, the second uncle's heart was gloomy. But soon, this amazement was washed away by joy: "What about Ning Yanren?"

"Outside the door.... His Majesty rewarded him with five hundred pieces of silk. The porter said happily.

"Smack!"

The chopsticks in my aunt's hand fell on the table.

PS: There is still a chapter at twelve o'clock, for the sake of my efforts to burst the liver, ask for a monthly pass.
