I am Li Shen and Li Shimin, the free kings of the Tang Dynasty

"What do you know?"

After hearing Wang Wanqing's words, Wang Zhengyi said with a look of disappointment.

"Do you think anyone can go in and be a concubine?

Do you know the identities of the concubines in Prince Ji’s mansion?

If you can really serve King Ji and have a child in the future, you will be very successful."

"It's still the same. What's so good about being a concubine? Is it better than being someone else's wife?

Although he is the Prince of Ji, when have concubines ever had any status? What's the difference between them and servants? They may even be worse than servants.

I don’t want to live in poverty like this.”

Wang Wanqing retorted.

Since ancient times, concubines have had no status.

"Servants? Which servant can earn more than 100 taels of silver per month, and can wear gold, silver, and agate jewelry?

The clothes they wore were all made of tribute silk.

Each person also has his own courtyard and servants to serve him.

Alas, why am I telling you all this? You have no chance to get in.

Let's go, it's more important to solve the family crisis."

In the end, Wang Zhengli shook his head helplessly and walked into Prince Ji's Mansion.

Wang Wanqing was still stunned.

A hundred strings of cash a month in interest? She only made one or two strings of cash a month, which was a lot.

They could use gold and silver jewelry at will, and their clothes were all made of tribute silk.

There are servants serving her, isn't this the same as being a mistress?

In a daze, Wang Wanqing followed Wang Zhengli into Prince Ji's Mansion.

They could only go through the side door, as the middle door was opened to welcome Prince Ji back home.

"Fugui, take them to the front hall. I will go back to the back house to change clothes."

Li Shen gave an order and walked towards the backyard with his servants.

Wang Zhengli had been in Chang'an City for so long, and the legend he heard the most was about Prince Ji.

This was his first time visiting Prince Ji’s Mansion and it opened his eyes even more.

"That... is that blood coral?"

Wang Zhengli asked as he looked at a blood-colored stone-like object in the middle of a pool.

There is a small waterwheel in the pool. I don’t know how it works, but it can bring water to the top, and then it falls onto the red stone like a waterfall.

"My dear, it is indeed true. This is indeed a piece of blood coral."

Wei Fugui didn't know what the relationship between these two people and Li Shen was, and thought they were guests, so he explained politely.

"So big?"

Wang Wanqing was also surprised. It was the first time for both of them to see such a large blood coral.

"This... Such a large blood coral is just left here to be exposed to the sun?"

Wang Zhengli found it a little bit unbelievable. Blood coral was extremely precious, and blood coral of this size was even harder to find.

The Prince Ji’s mansion actually placed it in the courtyard and used it as a rockery.

Blood coral will fade and lose its luster if exposed to the sun for a long time, which means it will be scrapped.

"This is the order of His Royal Highness Prince Ji. With water washing, it will not lose its luster even in the sun.

As for fading...it will, but it will take a long time.

Over the years, only three have been replaced."

Wei Fugui thought for a moment and replied.

"Three? Only?"

Wang Zhengli was completely devastated. Three of these valuable things had already broken.

Does Prince Ji have too much money and don’t know where to spend it? This is just the front yard.

After the shock, Wang Zhengli continued walking with Wei Fugui. As he walked, Wang Zhengli suddenly looked down at the road under his feet.

"This is....."

The ground under my feet is paved with pebbles, but these pebbles are different from the common ones. They are rounder and come in many colors.

"These stones were transported from the Anxi Protectorate, and they seem to have come from the barren land in Mobei.

I don’t know exactly where.”

Wei Fugui continued his introduction.

"Anxi Protectorate?"

Wang Zhengli was shocked again. Anxi Protectorate was thousands of miles away from here. How much money would it cost to transport the stones from Anxi Protectorate?

Although these stones are beautiful, they cannot be transported from the Anxi Protectorate thousands of miles away.

This guy is too much of a spendthrift.

It is said that Prince Ji's Mansion is rich enough to rival a country. Now it seems to be true. No one can match its financial resources.

Wang Zhengli and Wang Wanqing followed Wei Fugui all the way. Every few steps they took were a surprise and a shock.

Such as the trees of Kunlun Mountain, the flowers of the Western Regions, the exotic trees of Nanzhao, and the sands of overseas.

The two people who saw it wanted to plunder Prince Ji's mansion, as everything there was was extremely precious.

Wang Wanqing's heart changed at this moment. This Prince Ji's Mansion was too luxurious.

If she could really serve King Ji, then what she would get would not be too bad.

"Prince Ji has arrived~~~~~"

A quarter of an hour later, Li Shen changed into casual clothes and walked out from the back.

"See His Highness Prince Ji."

The two saluted.

"No gift."

Li Shen waved his hand.

"Your Highness Prince Ji, I wonder if Wanqing..."

“King…King…”

"Wang Zhengli."

"Yes, Wang Zhengli, right? You just said that you have already investigated everything, so I won't beat around the bush with you.

How do you plan to resolve this matter?

Don't talk about serving you. Do you think I'm a fool?

Let’s talk about something practical.”

Li Shen looked at Wang Zhengli and said bluntly, it's too tiring to beat around the bush.

In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks are unnecessary.

Wang Zhengli secretly felt sorry, but there was nothing he could do.

“Your Highness Prince Ji, my Wang family is here with sincerity this time.

Wanqing has offended His Royal Highness Prince Ji. It is entirely up to His Royal Highness Prince Ji to decide how to deal with her. We are willing to compensate her.

It is said that His Royal Highness Prince Ji is tolerant and tolerant. I hope His Royal Highness Prince Ji can show mercy and let the Wang family go."

"Haha." Li Shen laughed. Flattery doesn't work on me.

As long as you don't have a thick face, you will be immune to all poisons.

"It's all up to me? Then I'll kill her, are you willing?"

"As long as His Royal Highness Prince Ji is happy, what does it matter if he is killed?"

Wang Zhengli answered without hesitation.

"Uncle Three."

Wang Wanqing was panicked, worried that she might lose her life.

"Hahahaha, your Wang family is really cruel, you can even abandon your legitimate daughter.

Are you sure that I will not take her life?"

Li Shen laughed.

Wang Zhengli nodded.

“The prince is worth millions of gold, and she is just a commoner. The prince naturally has a noble bottom line.

This is what my father told me before he left. "

"It seems that there are still some smart people in the Wang family. Yes, why would I attack a woman?

But the country has its own laws, and the family has its own rules. I just hope that things will be handled according to the law, and she should be punished accordingly."

Li Shen took the tea handed to him by Shi Tou, blew on it twice, and then took a sip.

"Your Highness Prince Ji is right, Wanqing did go too far, this time just treat it as a lesson for her.

Please, Prince Ji, spare her life for her young age."
