In the afternoon, the sun is blazing.
"Where are 70%? I want to know too! " Autumn LAN languidly leans on the soft couch, caresses the white smooth fur, and says with a smile, "but can Kang lizhang tell Qiu Hong? I killed Qiu Jinzhu and the servants around Qiu Yin. If I can't catch up with them, it's a white tie! "
When Kang lizhang suggested Qiu Hongzhi and her to steal the things around Qiu Jinzhu's brother and sister to exchange for silver, Qiu Tailan had a good idea, and gave her the priority to sell the dowry of Lian Taifei and Ruan princess. In fact, as early as the death of old lady Lu, Kang lizhang expected that her mother's and daughter's private houses could not be preserved.
So she sent a batch of the most precious things out of the palace to hide.
Later, in order to get the trust from qiushailan, kanglizhang told her all about it - only qiushailan had the big head of Xihe palace. She didn't rush to get back what she deserved in it, so she continued to take care of it Anyway, autumn drag LAN is not a real penny pincher in money.
"Prince Biao gave the palace three days, but 70% of them were missing. Where could they get together?" Spring dye also smile, Zhou mother and Su together in the side, but want to talk and stop.
Autumn drag LAN to finish eating a peach, took the pad and wiped his hands, wondering: "what's the matter?"
"The princess sold off her dowry and helped the old general secretly." Zhou's mother asked Su He to go out and look at her, and then she whispered, "at that time, except for the old slaves, after the death of the princess, all the people who handled her were sent away by Princess Yang. I wonder if there will be people like those who were in charge of her mother and Dongyao?"
After thinking for a while, Qiu traction Lan said: "I've heard about it But when you sell things, you can have the mark of the concubine and so on? "
Mother Zhou said with a wry smile, "it's true! After all, the things that the princess takes out with others are not available to ordinary people at first sight. They are also afraid of buying stolen goods to cause trouble, and they are afraid that the front foot will give money and the back foot will be charged with theft. So, it's all written notes that prove that it's the princess who wants to sell them. "
“…… Is it only her dowry that she sold? " Autumn drag LAN to ponder for a moment, sit straight body, ask.
"Yes." Zhou's mother explained, "the princess said that all the things of Tai Fei are yours, and nothing can be moved."
"Autumn drag LAN nodded:" then too imperial concubine's dowry, autumn Meng min they have no excuse to embezzle. According to her cousin, there were nearly 400, 000 dowries. "
Spring dye, summer dye exclaimed: "so many?" They have seen the world with Ruan Qingyan, but the dowry of four hundred thousand Liang silver is not a small item. In the end, the daughter is someone else's person, and the rich dowry is built on the loss of her family's industry.
"Not as many as our princess!" Mom Zhou blurted out!
"The dowry of the concubine is indeed more. And now I can't just follow the list! " "Autumn drag LAN sneer," those shop manor, the income of the past years has not calculated. Zhuangtian on the dowry is good, and the shop is also Wangpu. If the mother and the concubine don't mention it, they will rely on the dowry of the imperial concubine in the mansion. They haven't produced more than 90% of the original. How can they not get rid of the accusation of misappropriating the property of the imperial concubine! Qiu Mengmin dare not give it to me according to the market income. My cousin can't spare him! "
The two dowries of this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are rich for some reasons: the prince's residence of Xihe is a hereditary family. Although concubine Lian was the daughter of a minister in those days, the family background of Lian is not deep. In order to prevent her daughter from being looked down upon, it was a dowry prepared by her family.
It's the same with Princess Ruan. Although the Ruan family is an official of three generations, it's not as good as the palace of Xihe, the founding Prince before its decline. In addition, general Ruan has made a lot of war money in his military career. He is not mean to his daughter who has been married to gaomen. After learning about the dowry list left by xialian and Ruan, Qiu Xulan knows that there was no nonsense about embroidering 800000 liang of silver at the beginning. The two left their own industries. Now, it's appropriate to count 1 million Liang.
That is to say, not counting the secret information that Qiulan didn't know, at least one-third of the current Xihe Palace should be cut to her!
It can be imagined that the Qiu Mengmin family will be as mad to resist!
"Fortunately, the Yang family's daughter is helpless. Now she is pinching with the Ding family to death Otherwise, Qiu Mengmin and his wife must turn to these two families for help, and then they will know how many changes will be born! " Autumn drag LAN think of here can't help but wipe a cold sweat.
Her mind was fixed. "As for the things sold out by her mother's concubine, her cousin had been counting the things sold out and the expenses of the general's house in recent years. In about two days, they could be compiled into a Book - the money that the mother's concubine subsidized the general's house was at most the difference between the things sold out by the general's house and the expenses!"
Mom Zhou asked, "what are our expenses over the years..."
"It's right for the royal family to raise us. Qiu Mengmin dare to let people know that the royal family has been confiscating us all these years. As a result, we have a lot of necessary things. The mother and concubine can only sell their dowry and go out to buy them?" "Autumn drag LAN to smile to remind," so you don't all recognize those notes that the mother Princess agreed to sell, let autumn Meng min resist not strict, out of the stolen servants, we are not allowed to have the servants of the Lord
Chunran asked, "but in that case, it can also be said that the princess didn't take care of the next talent and lost something, regardless of their affairs."
"Who said that the servant who sold the goods served me and the concubine?" "Autumn drag LAN disdain of way," since there are now stealing the things of too imperial concubine and mother imperial concubine to sell, the original thing is also likely to be they do? What's more, since Qiu Mengmin took over the prince, the concubine has not been in charge of the family. There are servants who sell the owner's belongings for themselves in this house. Who can I find for the accountability of the owner? "Zhou's mother carefully said, "but the princess has made a private seal..."
"Can you steal so many things but not a private seal?" Autumn drag LAN calm way, "let alone how to sell things, are all antiques, hairpins and so on? Will the farms and shops outside move easily? Those alone can make the palace miserable! "
Zhou's mother thought: "yes, but Although the old slave didn't hear the princess mention selling shops and fields and so on, today's prince came in, but no one came to pay us rent. "
"Autumn drag LAN is surprised way:" still have such thing After meditating for a while, he asked in a low voice, "did my grandfather spend money to give him activities after his defeat?" This kind of expense is very big. It's a small idea to throw in hundreds of thousands of liang of silver.
"I don't think so." Fortunately, Zhou's mother pondered for a while and shook her head. "At that time, the first Prince and the next son had lost their feet. The princess and the princess were so sad that they couldn't tell each other. They even held you in their arms and comforted each other. They were powerless about the old general's affairs!"
"Autumn drag LAN feels very much to be puzzled:" then why did no one come to pay rent Fu
"The old slave asked the princess, and she said that she was afraid of being robbed by the current princes, so she let those people sell it in private and bring it in with silver notes." Zhou's mother said that with a low voice, "the problem is that the old slave has calculated the income, if it is really handed over to the princess, then when the princess helps the general's house, there is no need to be a thing again!"! So the old slave always doubted that those industries would be gone. "
"But where will it go?" Spring dye can't help asking.
Zhou's mother sighed: "the old slave had guessed with Li's mother before whether the prince was angry with the princess because he was expelled by the princess. In order to keep the princess, the princess gave him part of the dowry in exchange for their immobility?"
"I don't think Qiu Mengmin will agree to it," she frowned. Women's dowry is supported by the list collected by their mother's family. He is not afraid that when I grow up, my mother and concubine will still be there, exposing it? "
Xia ran also said: "at that time, my young master had not yet passed on. If the general's house and so on were to die out. The maid said something bad: as long as the princess and the princess How much dowry does the princess have According to the rules, a woman's dowry can only be inherited by her own flesh and blood. If there is no such thing, or if there is no such thing, it will be returned to her mother's house.
But if there is no one in her family, it will be her husband's. It's not a waste of money to have a heir for a woman at most.
Therefore, the Xihe palace wanted to seize the dowry of Ruan princess. At the beginning, it was better to kill Ruan Princess and qiushailan.
It's the share of Lian Taifei. If the Lian family didn't come back this time, it would be thousands of miles away. How could they know the life and death of Qiu Zhaolan? Don't know her life and death, how to get back to the dowry of Princess Tai? Finally, it's not cheap.
"No wonder I can't find the two dowries." Think of here autumn drag LAN suddenly realize, "it's not the list was put to find, but Princess Ruan deliberately destroyed it?"? Xihe palace can't find the dowry list, and can't get rid of the two dowries at the same time! I also think Princess Ruan is a daughter and will definitely give me such an important thing Use their greed to set up a way to protect my life? "
She wiped a cold sweat secretly, "it's true that life and death are destiny, wealth is in the sky - otherwise, this charming little girl, how can she live to be twelve years old when she is protected by a poisoned mother with so many tricks and tricks!"
"That old slave can't guess." Zhou's mother's voice interrupted her thinking, "or take it to help the old general's family members who are involved? But it's also unlikely. After all, the princess has been raised in the boudoir and doesn't know those people at all. Even if we want to help, we can send the things to the general's house through the general's house. At that time, they were all handed by the old slaves, and there was absolutely no income from those places! "
Autumn drag LAN ponders for a moment, clap: "can't guess - send someone to ask Ruan an an them tomorrow?"
In the late autumn, when she settled down, she was awakened by the rustling voice behind the screen. She stroked her forehead and thought, "isn't it?"
A moment later, she saw Jiang Ya frost in black robe and Yuhuan hair turning in with a light cough, and sighed deeply: "Why are you here again?"
"I heard that Ruan and Lian came to ask for your dowry today?" River Cliff frost also does not say, straightforward ask.
"Yes, you see?" Autumn drag LAN across the tent rubbing the forehead, lazy way, "in two days my cousin and brother-in-law came, I don't think there is anything to say there."
However, Jiang Ya Frost said, "since it belongs to you, why should Qiu Mengmin refuse to delay? Tomorrow, I asked my starling to accompany me to do it for you! "
"Autumn drag LAN hurriedly climbs to sit up:" rumor ah you forget is pure blessing princess to appear, just round the field for us
"It doesn't matter." Jiang Yashuang said, "do you forget what happened to Yang family and Ding family now? Now it's too late for the whole country to care about them. How can they care about the movements of the West River Palace? " And he said, "even if you don't mind, I'll tell you that my 18 elder sister has made friends with you, and entrusted me to ask my eight elder brothers about this."
"My grandmother and my mother have left me a lot of property!" "Autumn drag LAN to disapprove," my eldest uncle he is always prince, how is willing to give up easilyJiang Yashuang said lightly: "if you don't want him to die!"
