Chapter 578 Ask
Seriously speaking, Lin Xuan and Chang Sun Chong have no enmity.

Although Li Lizhi was supposed to marry him, the marriage was canceled because of Lin Xuan's willingness.

But he didn't hate Lin Xuan, on the contrary he was grateful to Lin Xuan.

Li Lizhi is the eldest daughter, and he must be respected when she marries her back.

If Changsun Wuji didn't force him, he wouldn't want to marry Li Lizhi at all.

He targeted Lin Xuan because the relationship between Lin Xuan and Li Chengqian was better. Li Chengqian used to rely heavily on Changsun Wuji and was more polite to him.

But I don't know when it started, Li Chengqian slowly began to alienate him, and when chatting, he kept mentioning Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan is just a son of a merchant, he got a knighthood through shit luck, Chang Sun Chong doesn't look down on Lin Xuan at all.

And Princess Gao Yang was very jealous of Li Lizhi.

Now that she married into the eldest grandson's family, she hated Li Lizhi even more.

In her opinion, she married Li Lizhi instead.

No matter who she marries in the whole of Chang'an, she will be sacrificed in her capacity.

Only the eldest grandson's family, although they said they were polite, she could feel that Changsun Wuji was not as polite to her as he expressed.

Although it was not wrong, she knew that the position of eldest grandson Wuji was not caused by her being a concubine princess at all.

It's not good for her to get stiff with Changsun Wuji.

So she faced Changsun Chong's concubines and children with a friendly face.

If she hadn't married Changsun Chong, she should be living in the princess mansion now, free and easy.

Li Lizhi doesn't live in the princess mansion herself, but she wants to but can't.

"What's wrong, Your Majesty?" Queen Changsun asked.

She had reminded Li Shimin before that the Lin family didn't have much heritage, so don't care even if the gift is a bit shabby.

Why did Li Shimin still look surprised.

Li Shimin handed over the gift list and said, "Let's have a look."

Empress Changsun took the gift slip suspiciously, and she was also stunned when she saw the words written on the gift slip.

"What did the Marquis of Jingyang County give that surprised my father and queen mother? Could it be some rare treasure?" Princess Gao Yang asked curiously.

Lin Xuan didn't have a good impression of Princess Gaoyang, who single-handedly created the green hat king of the Tang Dynasty and was immortalized together with Fang Yiai. More than 500 catties of gold were smelted and cast into twelve golden pigs, which were given to His Majesty."

"what!"

All the people present, except Li Chengqian who had known about it for a long time, and Li Shimin and Empress Changsun who had seen the gift list, all looked at Lin Xuan in surprise.

What is the concept of [-] catties of gold?
If it is exchanged for copper coins, it can be exchanged for two to three million guan.

But many things are not calculated in this way. One tael of gold is worth ten pennies, but it is very difficult to exchange ten pennies for one tael of gold.

Although gold is not considered currency in the Tang Dynasty, it can be used as currency in the upper class.

Ancient mining and smelting technologies are very backward, so gold is very scarce.

Most of them were collected by noble families and lords.

The money that the Cui family sent to Lin Xuan at the beginning were all copper coins, not even a tael of gold.

Lin Xuan's more than 500 jin of gold was bought slowly at a price higher than the market price.

Now it is difficult to buy gold in the entire Chang'an market.

There is no way, the ancient copper coins are usually several catties, if something happens, you can't run away with the copper coins, right?

How much can a person hug when he is exhausted?
Therefore, the gold collected by the aristocratic family will not be circulated at all.

There was little gold in the Tang Dynasty, so it will be even less.

Many people think that sending money directly is tacky, but that is not enough.

When the equivalent reaches a certain level, there is no limit to the vulgarity.

This is like giving tens of millions of cash to others in later generations. Many people think it is tacky, and they may be ridiculing in their hearts. They are really upstarts.

But when local governments send [-] million or [-] billion in cash, no one thinks so.

Princess Gao Yang is in this mood now, she wanted to laugh at Lin Xuan's vulgarity, she opened her mouth a few times, but she didn't say anything.

Li Shimin looked at Lin Xuan, thinking in his heart that he might as well not go back and deal with it.

There is no way, half of them are more than 20 to [-] guan, he feels distressed.

In his eyes, the money was all his.

Returning half of it is like taking money out of his pocket.

Li Shimin was so poor that taking money out of his pocket was like cutting his flesh.

"You come with me, let the mothers talk about their own things." Li Shimin said.

"Yes."

Everyone responded, bowed to Empress Changsun, followed Li Shimin, and left the Lizheng Hall.

After everyone left, Empress Changsun looked at Li Lizhi and said with a wry smile: "Zi Chu messed up, why didn't you stop him?"

Li Lizhi said aggrievedly: "Mother, I persuaded my husband, but the Lin family really didn't have anything to sell. He said that the emperor would like to give this to his father."

Empress Changsun smiled wryly, she liked it, but how could she return half of it.

She has been married to Li Shimin for many years and knows Li Shimin very well. It may be difficult for Li Shimin to return half of the time.

However, half of the return ceremony has been refunded since ancient times. Even ordinary people do this. If you don't refund and spread the word, how will others see the royal family?
"Stop standing, sit down." Empress Changsun said.

"Thank you mother."

After Li Lizhi sat down, Empress Changsun asked, "You have been married for a few days, how does the son-in-law treat you?"

"After returning to my mother, my husband treated me very well." Li Lizhi said.

"I heard that you and Zichu returned to the Lin family the next day. Are Zichu's parents easy to get along with?"

"The father-in-law and mother-in-law are very open-minded, and the mother-in-law even gave me the housekeeping power." Li Lizhi said.

"Since his parents are enlightened, you have to abide by your duty, and you can't be arrogant because of your status, understand?" Empress Changsun urged.

"Yes, my daughter would like to follow her mother's teaching." Li Lizhi said.

Empress Changsun nodded, looked at Princess Gaoyang, and asked, "What about you?"

Princess Gao Yang's eyes were slightly red, and she said: "Mother, Changsun Chong not only has several concubines, but also several children. What's more, on the second day of the wedding, he went to the concubine's room to make my daughter's face Where are you going to put it?"

Empress Changsun looked at the weeping Princess Gao Yang, and reprimanded: "As a wife, how can it be proper to call your husband by his name?"

Princess Gao Yang secretly hated her, she treated Li Lizhi kindly, but reprimanded me.

Sure enough, it didn't come from the same belly, so the treatment was different.

Although she thought so in her heart, Princess Gao Yang didn't dare to reveal it, and said: "The empress mother taught me that my daughter knew she was wrong."

Empress Changsun felt a little distressed when she looked at Princess Gaoyang, who was raining pear blossoms.

Princess Gaoyang lost her mother when she was young, and she has been raised by her, and she also treats Princess Gaoyang as her own.

"Okay, Chonger's side, I will talk about him later, but you have to think about your own problems. You are a wife and a princess, and you look no worse than others. Why doesn't he want to be with you?" Staying overnight? Chong'er is the eldest son of the family and shoulders the heavy responsibility of carrying on the family line, isn't it normal to have a few concubines?" said the eldest grandson empress.
