Chapter 24： is not what it means!

On the first day of their marriage, Li Mingjin and Luo Shuyu would go to the Cixin Palace to offer tea to the empress dowager, the emperor, and the queen. There were also the princes and princesses who came to watch the new couple of the three princes. I don't want to join in the fun, but the third prince is different. He has always acted boldly and has always had a bad reputation. No one dared to bully him in the palace. Like his mother-in-law, he has a bad personality and is difficult to get along with.

The Cixin Palace is really lively today, and everyone who should come has come.

The queen mother is already a little old, but she is still full of energy and well maintained, so she can't tell her real age.

The current empress dowager is not the biological mother of Emperor Tiansheng. To mention the late emperor is another confusing and complicated account.

Speaking of this, I have to mention the current queen. She is the queen mother's niece. This is why Emperor Tiansheng is not close to the queen, but rather favors Concubine Lin who has been with him from the Prince's Mansion to the throne.

The factions in the court are naturally closely related to the harem. Now the concubines of the harem have already stood in line, let alone the court.

It's just that the Prince's faction and the First Prince's faction are evenly matched, and no one knows who will have the last laugh.

Now, only Luo Shuyu knows the ending of the book, the snipe and mussel fight, the fisherman wins, and let's see the future.

The queen mother heard in the morning that Li Mingjin had asked an imperial doctor to see her legs this morning. Luo Shuyu and Li Mingjin were arranged to sit down as soon as they arrived, and Luo Shuyu also rubbed the chair.

The eldest prince and the prince went to the end of the Cixin Palace at the same time. The two of them were peaceful on the face, but inside and outside the words, there were all kinds of competition between you and me. , I won't let you, and you won't let me, even if you say auspicious words to the queen mother, you have to compete with each other who's words are more auspicious, and more comfortable for others to listen to.

The Empress Dowager didn't seem to see the dark waves between them, and smiled and accepted their auspicious words. In the end, Cixin Palace was closer to the prince.

Today, neither the eldest prince nor the crown prince are the protagonists. Immediately, Emperor Tiansheng and the queen also arrived, and the next step is the process of the newlyweds serving tea.

The two first offered tea to the queen mother, the queen mother drank it, and gave them a pair of precious jade pendants.

Emperor Tiansheng didn't have to kneel and kowtow when Li Mingjin was injured due to official duties, but drank the tea they respected directly. He also gave them a lot of auspicious objects with good morals, and he was not stingy at all.

Seeing that the Empress Dowager and Emperor Tiansheng gave the third prince a lot of respect, the queen was also very generous in her actions, and gave a pair of jade dragon and phoenix pendants.

Luo Shuyu had met the elders, the crown prince and the crown prince, the eldest prince and the eldest prince and concubine. All of them greeted each other. Luo Shuyu thanked them one by one, and stood beside Li Mingjin.

Emperor Tiansheng and the empress had a good impression of Luo Shuyu, so the empress asked him to sit down and tell everyone about the turbulence in the marriage.

The queen smiled and said: "God bless Ming Jin can come back safely. At that time, His Majesty and I almost canceled the marriage for you, or Shu Yu said that he would be willing to marry you in life or death, but I was moved. ."

When she was old, the queen mother liked to listen to this kind of thing like a script: "Why don't I know about this, how did Ming Jin's leg hurt?" She was praying to the Buddha a few days ago, and she naturally didn't need to participate in the wedding of the third prince. Less is known.

Emperor Tiansheng said, "Don't worry about your mother, it's just that Ming Jin went to chase the thief and almost didn't come back to get married. Fortunately, he was good enough and didn't get hurt."

The Queen Mother couldn't help but say to Emperor Tiansheng: "Your Majesty, too, Ming Jin is preparing to get married, why did he let him go ahead and do dangerous things. Fortunately, the ancestors blessed him and the child returned safely."

Emperor Tiansheng: "It's also an exercise, Ming Jin, you say so."

Li Mingjin said truthfully: "Well, it's just that the leg is hurt and uncomfortable." Resolutely do not let others know that his leg has nothing to do with this "disappearance".

The royal family chat is different from that of ordinary people. Fortunately, after Luo Shuyu's baptism in the last life, he no longer understands everything as he did when he first entered.

The queen mother changed the topic and looked at Luo Shuyu: "Shu Yu is not bad, come to the palace to talk to me more in the future."

Luo Shuyu got up and saluted: "Yes, as long as the queen mother is willing, the grandson-in-law is willing to tell you interesting things."

The empress dowager said with a smile: "I really know how to speak, as expected of a scholar of the Ministry of Rites."

When it came to Luo Renshou, Luo Shuyu felt less comfortable in her heart, but she smiled kindly and thanked the Queen Mother for her compliment against her will.

The second time he greeted these people, Luo Shuyu's mentality was also different. This time he noticed many details that he had never felt before.

According to rumors, Emperor Tiansheng and the empress respected each other like guests, and the empress dowager often wanted to protect the empress.

The relationship between the prince and the princess is okay, and the two occasionally meet each other's eyes.

On the contrary, the eldest prince brought the eldest prince concubine and the side concubine. It stands to reason that the third prince brought his new daughter-in-law here, and has nothing to do with the eldest prince's side concubine, but she is here, and today's dress is even more than the eldest prince concubine. She was charming and flirted with the eldest prince during this period. I don’t know if she thought she was the eldest prince’s concubine, and she was deeply in love with the eldest prince and his wife. It can be seen that the eldest prince and concubine did not live well in the first prince’s residence.

In the last life, Luo Shuyu also needed to participate in their small gatherings from time to time, but most of the time he didn't go if he could, nor did he study the family affairs of the prince and the eldest prince, and he didn't know whether the two couples got along well.

Now, as long as it is related to their family's life, he will record them one by one, observe carefully, and must not miss any detail. This is the world in the book, and everyone here can change the fate of their family.

After seeing everyone, the Queen Mother also felt tired, and Emperor Tiansheng took them all away immediately.

Luo Shuyu and Li Mingjin went to see his mother-in-law.

It is said in the book that Li Mingjin is grumpy because he inherited his mother from Fanbang, and does not treat people like people.

Luo Shuyu met his mother and concubine very rarely in her last life. Li Mingjin's mother was indeed from Fanbang, but it was not like people outside guessed. She ate raw meat, drank raw blood, and had a hot temper. In the harem of Emperor Tiansheng, her identity is special, and she does not have much affection with Emperor Tiansheng. She lives in the palace all the year round, and her relationship with Li Mingjin is even more general, and her health seems to be not very good all the time. After he married Li Mingjin In her fourth year, Luo Shuyu only had this impression of her.

He didn't know whether Li Mingjin had deep feelings for his mother and concubine, but he only knew that after she left, Li Mingjin locked himself in the study for two days without eating or drinking, and then went out to get very drunk, and then dragged Luo Shuyu Went with him.

Everyone went in a different direction. Luo Shuyu and Li Mingjin went to the palace behind.

Li Mingjin's mother-in-law lives in Changle Palace, which is still some distance away from the Empress Dowager's Cixin Palace.

When the two arrived, the maids of Changle Palace were already waiting at the door, and the two went in directly to see Concubine Mei.

Different from other palaces, other palaces grow flowers and plants, only Mei Fei grows some vegetable crops here.

Luo Shuyu helped Li Mingjin go in.

Concubine Mei is a somewhat aloof woman. She is taller than ordinary women. She is not an enthusiastic person. She has no smile on her face all the year round. Even when she sees newlyweds Luo Shuyu and Li Mingjin coming in, there is no more smile on her face.

"You two don't have to salute, Ming Jin's legs are inconvenient, so just sit."

Li Mingjin sat down directly, and pulled Luo Shuyu to sit next to him: "This is the mother concubine."

Luo Shuyu shouted: "Mother concubine."

Concubine Mei responded, and she spoke concisely: "It's almost noon, you two should have dinner here."

Li Mingjin said boldly: "Well, Shu Yu has been standing over there saluting, and he is tired."

Luo Shuyu: It is also thanks to Li Mingjin's injured foot that they didn't salute very much just now.

Compared to facing Emperor Tiansheng and others, Li Mingjin's words in front of Concubine Mei obviously took a long time.

Concubine Mei said to Luo Shuyu, "You will have to get along and take care of you in the future."

Luo Shuyu said, "I will."

Concubine Mei was satisfied with his answer and nodded: "I have some medicinal herbs for the body here, you can take them back when you leave later."

Luo Shuyu has just entered the door now, so it is inconvenient to say too much. He will answer whatever Concubine Mei says.

Soon, lunch was served, and there were several dishes specially given to them by Emperor Tiansheng, who knew that they had lunch here.

After lunch, Concubine Mei also had to rest. Li Mingjin and Luo Shuyu left the palace with a sack of medicinal herbs given by Concubine Mei, and of course, all the new weddings they got today.

Sitting on the carriage returning to the residence, Luo Shuyu asked Li Mingjin, "Why does concubine mother grow vegetables in the palace?" He was very curious in his previous life, but he never asked.

Li Mingjin straightened his legs, met the eyes of his imperial concubine's unknown desire, and said, "She likes to eat the vegetables she grows." Finding that Luo Shuyu didn't quite understand, he added, "She told me when she was a child, just now The year she was pregnant with me, she was poisoned in the vegetables and almost miscarried, and after that, she started growing her own vegetables, just in case."

Luo Shuyu sighed: "The harem is really complicated."

Li Mingjin: "Well, you don't have to worry about this in the future."

Luo Shuyu nodded: "What about the mother concubine?"

Li Mingjin: "Don't worry."

Luo Shuyu thought that he would pay more attention in the future, maybe he talked less to Li Mingjin in his last life, so he felt that his relationship with Concubine Mei was not that good, but it doesn't seem to be the case now. .

He looked at Li Mingjin's straight legs in the carriage: "Then worry about your feet first. The imperial doctor said that you should take good care of them. Your Highness will not go out in the near future."

Li Mingjin took advantage of the situation and said, "Then don't leave." This is the feeling of being controlled by the prince and concubine.

Luo Shuyu wanted to talk to him more, but when the carriage drove to the street, they heard someone shouting.

"Big news! Big news! Big news!"

"Oiran 101 will open in three days!"

"Oiran 101 will open in three days!"

"Oiran 101 will open in three days!"

Luo Shuyu opened the curtain of the carriage, and every 50 meters on the street, someone was handing out flyers to Shen Mingyun.

Li Mingjin remembered that Luo Shuyu had mentioned the Huancai Pavilion, and said, "This oiran 101 also seems to be from your cousin."

Luo Shuyu said, "Yes, he has a lot of ideas."

Li Mingjin asked him, "Why don't you want Hua Kui 101 to continue?"

Luo Shuyu asked back: "Has Your Highness learned about the way the Hua Kui 101 is held?"

Now Li Mingjin has never seen the crazy voting scene of Hua Kui 101. Luo Shuyu has seen it in his last life. Those spectators voted for the Hua Kui like crazy. The scene is quite terrifying.

Li Mingjin: "It seems to be a vote?"

Luo Shuyu: "Then have you calculated how long this event will take from the start to the final result, and how many votes will be generated during the period? You know that these votes are calculated in silver. Although there is an upper limit on the number of votes each person casts, the tickets are sold. It's not cheap. Let me give an example, a private school gentleman earns twelve taels a year, which is considered a wealthy family among the common people. Most families only have a few taels a year, and you can know that the fare of oiran 101 is How many?"

Naturally, Li Mingjin never made such calculations. He never cared about money: "What about the fare?"

Luo Shuyu: "One hundred papers, each person has a maximum of ten votes for the same oiran in each game. There are a total of one hundred and one contestants. Can your Highness count it clearly?"

Li Mingjin responded very quickly: "Ten pieces are one tael of silver. If there are ten oirans you like, that's ten taels. Mr. private school's income for a year."

Luo Shuyu: "Hua Kui 101 is estimated to be held about ten times, and there are a total of 101 people. Although there will be fewer people in the later stage, there will be as many as 20 or 30 people left in the end. A lot."

Li Mingjin: "If it were an ordinary family, it would be less expensive and less expensive, and at worst, the family would go bankrupt, and the children would sell their daughters."

Luo Shuyu: "Yes."

After Li Mingjin listened to Luo Shuyu's words, this would inevitably affect the stability of the capital. Everyone would not work, just thinking about voting and chasing the oiran, wouldn't it be a complete mess.

A word that awakens the dreamer, it seems to be just a simple entertainment, it is simply huge profit, and it has to be managed.

Li Mingjin was not only woken up, but also thought about whether Luo Shuyu would keep the money in his hands in the future. He turned to his feet, which were wrapped like a big pig's trotter, and said solemnly, "Yu'er, save some silver taels in the future. Just give me a banquet."

Luo Shuyu: "..." That's not what he meant when he said this!

The author has something to say: Third Prince: Daughter-in-law, I have no money, can I make a billion-dollar deal with you tonight?

Luo Shuyu: ...Go away.
