Malicious Medical Princess of the Marquis House

The weather in February is warm and cold.

Yesterday was sunny, but today it was raining.

He had to turn out the winter clothes that had been put in the cage, put on the cloak, and wrap the whole person tightly.

Look out ma'am.

Qingmei waited for Gu Jiu to go out.

She was very worried that Gu Jiu would catch a cold when the weather was cold.

Gu Jiu said to her, Don't worry about me and me. It's getting late. First go to Chunhetang to greet the princess.

She took the maid and the old lady and walked to Chunhetang.

Walking on the cloister, looking towards the garden.

Although it is early spring, the branches have turned green.

Even if the cold wind blows, it cannot stop the recovery of all things.

She breathed a sigh of relief and touched her hand again, which was cold.

If Liu Zhao was here, the two of them would be very warm in the same bed at night.

After thinking wildly, we finally arrived at Chunhetang.

Everyone is here.

Gu Jiu greeted everyone.

Just as he was talking, Xiao Huangmen sang and shouted, and Princess Pei arrived.

Everyone stood up according to their respective identities, and when Mr. Pei arrived, bowed in greeting.

Please give my concubine (mother concubine) good luck, and my concubine (mother concubine) is blessed with longevity and good health.

Exemption.

Wearing dark red clothes, Mrs. Pei leaned on the couch, flicked her sleeves, and sat down.

Everyone also returned to their respective positions and sat down.

First, Ouyang Fu and Xiao Qiner reported to the internal affairs.

Gu Jiu pricked his ears and listened, it was all trivial matters, nothing worth paying attention to.

However, Xiao Qin'er suddenly mentioned that the Ministry of Households should clear up the arrears, which caught Gu Jiu's attention.

I just heard her say: Mother concubine, the household department clears up the debt, should we make preparations earlier?

Pei snorted coldly,

With disdain in his eyes, What are you going to prepare? Does the Ministry of Finance dare to come to ask for money? They don't dare to give them ten courage.

Hearing what the mother-in-law said, the daughter-in-law is relieved. Xiao Qin'er secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Jiu took the opportunity to say: Although the Ministry of Household has no courage to come to ask for money, but I heard that Jin Wuwei and the Shaofu Prison are involved in the clearing of the debt this time. I dare to ask the concubine, does the Shaofu Prison have the courage to come? Does Jin Wuwei have the courage to come to the door?

Pei's face was dissatisfied, Dalang's daughter-in-law, what do you want to say?

Gu Jiu said with a serious expression: My daughter-in-law is worried that the Ministry of Household will not receive the money and will complain to His Majesty. His Majesty is angry and dispatches Jinwuwei. Will the lord be blamed at that time? The prince is locked in Zongzheng Temple, what should we do?

When Concubine Shen and Concubine Luo heard this, they nodded secretly, thinking that Gu Jiu's worries were justified.

Concubine Shen was the first to say: Niangniang, the eldest lady's worries are not without reason. I have heard a lot about what happened outside recently. The Ministry of Household, together with the yamen, is like a wolf like a tiger. Looking at this battle, this time It must be real.

Pei's eyes swept from left to right, You mean that our palace will take the initiative to pay back the debt? Then do you know how much the palace owes the Ministry of Household in total?

Concubine Shen shook her head slightly, I don't know what my concubine is.

Pei's face was stern and said angrily: Of course you don't know, that's why you think about it so simply. Over the years, the mansion has spent a lot of money, and he has borrowed several money from the Ministry of Housing. The total is more than 300,000 yuan. Two, nearly 400,000. Such a large amount of debt, even if the accountant is turned upside down, it will not be enough.

Gu Jiu said loudly: Then pay back part of it first. How much money is in the mansion, pay off the money first, anyway, to block the mouths of Youyou first. Afterwards, the father and the king took the opportunity to complain to the palace, only that he had done his best, and the money of the palace Take them all out. In this way, Your Majesty will not be too harsh.

Pei Shi smiled sarcastically, Eldest daughter-in-law, you are still too naive. Do you think that when the prince comes to the palace to complain, his majesty will forgive the debt of the palace? It's really a dream.

According to the concubine's intention, wouldn't it be more serious if you don't pay back a penny. Your Majesty is angry, who can bear it?

Gu Jiu's eyes did not evade at all, and stared straight at Mrs. Pei.

Pei Shi was annoyed, Has this princess ever said not to repay the money? Presumptuous!

Gu Jiu lowered her head and smiled, Daughter-in-law doesn't dare to be presumptuous. Daughter-in-law just reminded mother and concubine that things have come to an end, and it is useless to escape. Let's think about how to deal with people who come to collect debts first.

Who dares to come to collect debts? Pei asked angrily.

Xiao Qin'er sneered at Gu Jiu, then said loudly, Reporting to the mother-in-law, the daughter-in-law knows who dares to come to collect debts. It is the governor of the capital, Mr. Gu, the father of the eldest sister-in-law. It is no wonder that the eldest sister-in-law spared no effort in persuading the mother-in-law to prepare early. It's for the sake of taking care of adults.

Gu Jiu turned back, Four little brothers and sisters have no brains, can't understand people's words? Which sentence am I thinking of for the sake of Lord Gu? Obviously every sentence is for the sake of the palace.

Xiao Qin'er snorted, I'm clearly thinking about the palace, but I'm not actually planning for Lord Gu. Don't you just want Lord Gu to successfully complete the task so that he can send business to the Ministry of Household.

Gu Jiu smiled coldly, Master Gu successfully completed the task, what's wrong? It's only natural for the palace to pay back the debt.

As long as the money is paid back, the prince will have the confidence to be in front of His Majesty, and he will not be scolded by His Majesty.

Don't you have to listen to your fourth younger brother and sister, and don't pay back a penny. When Jin Wuwei and the Shaofu Prisoner come to the door, will the fourth younger brother and fourth younger brother fight hard together?

Xiao Qin'er panicked, Don't use Jin Wuwei to scare people. You obviously have selfish intentions, but you act like you are always thinking of the palace. If you dare to do it, are you not allowed to tell me?

Gu Jiu smiled mockingly, Of course the fourth siblings can say it, but I hope you don't mislead the mother and concubine and harm the palace. Don't wait for Jin Wuwei to come to the door, you hide faster than anyone else, just like last time.

You are talking nonsense. Xiao Qin'er became anxious, Mother-in-law, last time it wasn't because the daughter-in-law didn't do her best, but because the daughter-in-law was too late when she got the news. So I didn't have to rush to the mother-in-law to do my filial piety.

The last time the two said that the prince was poisoned, King Ning was trapped in the palace, and Jin Wuwei went to the door to capture Huangmen, the servant of the tourmaline pavilion.

That time, it was Gu Jiu who accompanied Pei's side and watched Jin Wuwei arrest him.

The rest of the palace, all hid and did not come out.

Not to mention female dependents, not even the gentlemen have seen one.

Pei's face was displeased, Okay, don't talk about it. The Ministry of Household clearing up the debt, this princess will seriously consider this matter. Whether you want to pay back the money, and how much, you don't need to worry about it.

The eldest daughter-in-law, since your father is in charge of the palace's debts, you should send someone to tell him and let him drag the household over there. Afterwards, his benefits are indispensable.

Gu Jiu was unhappy, Mother-in-law is really embarrassing her daughter-in-law. It's a matter of the imperial court, so how dare the daughter-in-law intervene. As for when my father will come, he has his own considerations.

Pei Shi was dissatisfied, Is it so difficult for this princess to ask you to do something? Isn't it just a message, this princess won't believe it, and it can hurt Master Gu.

Whether it will hurt Mrs. Gu, the daughter-in-law is not sure. It's just that the mother-in-law refuses to give the daughter-in-law an exact date and number. It is very difficult for the daughter-in-law. Please be considerate of the mother-in-law.

Pei's eyes narrowed, Qin'er said that you are selfish, but this princess didn't believe it before. Now it seems that you really have selfishness. You might as well say it straight, you are collecting debts for Lord Gu.

Gu Jiu smiled, Who is selfless in the world? The palace is backed by a big tree to enjoy the shade, but the small arms and legs of Gu's palace can't bear His Majesty's anger.

My daughter-in-law is in the middle, neither left nor right, and my husband is not here, if I didn't have the slightest bit of selfishness, I would have been swallowed by someone long ago.

It's not that my mother-in-law doesn't know about my difficulties. Why does the mother-in-law have to turn a blind eye.

Are you resentful?

Gu Jiu shook his head, My daughter-in-law doesn't dare to hold grudges. Even if there is resentment, it is for the son.

Has the mother-in-law ever been to Zongzheng Temple, a small square world where the sun can't penetrate, that is the residence of the son.

The noble grandson of the emperor was reduced to a prisoner, but no one sympathized and sympathized with him.

Now, the mother-in-law also asked me to bring a message to Master Gu, asking Master Gu to drag the household. In case the above is held accountable after the incident, will the mother-in-law also plan to push me out to blame?

I don't want to be that sinner, I don't want to offend my mother's family, and I don't want to offend the palace. This is my difficulty.

Therefore, I don't want to bring word to Master Gu unless the concubine is willing to give the exact date and number.

Gu Jiu's words were neither humble nor arrogant, but Pei Shi didn't want to criticize her too much for a while.

After all, Gu Jiu and even Liu Zhao moved out.

Mr. Pei said with a stern face, Since you don't want to talk about it, let it go. As for the repayment, you don't need to worry about it.

Gu Jiu smiled, I listen to the mother-in-law. If the mother-in-law has no other orders, the daughter-in-law will leave first.

Gu Jiu got up and left Chunhetang first.

She instructed Deng Cunli, Go and ask the prince for me, when will he repay the money, and how much is he going to repay?

Deng Cunli's heart tensed, What if the lord says he has no money and doesn't plan to pay it back?

Gu Jiu smiled coldly, Then ask him for me, do you want to kill Liu Zhao? If you want Liu Zhao to die, you can't pay back a penny, so I'd better pack the dowry and leave the palace. The son of Liu Zhao, then quickly take out the money and settle the matter as soon as possible. If you delay it later, it will not be the Ministry of Household who sent someone to collect the account.

Gu Jiu stared at Deng Cunli, Just follow my words and tell the prince without changing a word.

Deng Cunli hesitated for a moment, Old slave takes orders.

Gu Jiu looked back at Chunhetang.

When you borrow money, you have a better attitude than anyone else. When you pay back, everyone is an uncle.

It's been the same face since time immemorial.

Borrowing money should be cautious, debt collection is risky.

Deng Cunli came to the tourmaline pavilion bravely and begged to see King Ning.

After waiting for a stick of incense, he was invited into the hall.

King Ning first looked at Deng Cunli, The eldest daughter-in-law can pick people, but she picked you.

The old slave has seen the prince.

This king thought you died in the palace, but I didn't expect you to be alive. King Ning laughed.

Deng Cunli bowed his head in silence.

After Wang Ning laughed, he asked, Tell me, what did the eldest wife ask you to do?

The eldest lady instructed the old slave to ask for her, the Ministry of Household clearing up the debt, when does the lord plan to pay it back, and how much?

King Ning snorted coldly, his face suddenly turned cold, This king has no money to pay the debt. You ask the eldest daughter-in-law to tell Gu Zhili, and if you have the guts, go to the door to collect the debt, and this king is waiting for him.

Deng Cunli added: The eldest madam asked the old slave to ask, does the lord want the eldest son to die? If he really wants the eldest son to die, the lord may not pay back a penny. The madam will also pack the dowry as soon as possible and leave the palace. The lord still thinks about the eldest son, and asks the lord to pay back a little.

King Ning choked, snorted twice, and said angrily: Did the eldest daughter-in-law eat the guts of a bear's heart and a leopard? She dares to let you carry such a thing. She is not afraid of the king's anger and slaughtering you, an immortal. .

Deng Cunli bowed and said, The old slave has lived for forty or fifty years, which is enough. If the lord really wants to kill the old slave, the old slave will never have a single complaint.

King Ning laughed, You old slave, you are just as stinky and tough as you were back then. No wonder you can't get along in the palace. What kind of eyes does the eldest daughter-in-law look like, she would choose you to serve by her side.

The old servant will definitely repay the kindness of the eldest madam. Deng Cunli said calmly.

King Ning said with a smile: Don't worry, this king will not kill you. I didn't kill you back then, and I won't kill you now.

You go back and tell the eldest daughter-in-law that this king will not let Liu Zhao die, so she doesn't have to rush to pack the dowry and leave the palace.

The eldest daughter-in-law is really outrageous. The man was still locked in Zongzheng Temple, not thinking about taking care of him, but thinking about packing his dowry and running away. Simply absurd.

Deng Cunli lowered his head, but Quan Dang didn't hear King Ning complaining about Gu Jiu.

He said, The eldest lady wants to know when the lord will repay the money and how much he plans to repay. Please tell the lord the truth.

How much money do you think this king can pay back? This king is also a poor man now, so he can only turn into a seller to repay the debts of the household department. If you put it together, it's amazing to have 40,000 to 50,000 yuan.

Speaking of money, Wang Ning suddenly felt a toothache.

Money is not a thing.

His dignified lord even had no money to spend.

It's heartbreaking to think about.

Deng Cunli bowed and said, Old slave knows, I will report the truth to the big lady.

King Ning waved his hand in disgust, Let's go, this king doesn't like seeing your face.

Deng Cunli bowed to say goodbye, returned to the east courtyard and went to the room, met Gu Jiu, and reported the matter one by one.

Gu Jiu was in a good mood when he learned that the prince could make up forty or fifty thousand taels, so that's it.

All of this was basically what she expected.

If you have 40,000 to 50,000 taels, you can also pay. But compared with the debt of 300,000 taels, this amount is not a fraction of the amount. I hope Your Majesty will not push it too hard.

Mr. Pei still wanted to delay, for ten days and a half, a month or two, and only repay the money when he could no longer delay. Maybe people who borrow money have a similar idea.

She knew that this time, the Ministry of Household had to spit out a little in order to clear up the debts, so that she could do business with His Majesty.

But she didn't want to take out the money so simply.

When Gu Zhili came to collect debts, she just gave the money obediently, which was a shame.

The dignified princess does not eat the household department.

As a result, after noon, she got the news that the prince ordered the accountant to prepare the money and return it to the household department.

Pei Shi was anxious and angry, and hurried to the tourmaline pavilion.

My lord, I heard that you asked the accountant to prepare money, and you want to repay the arrears of the household department. Why is this? Could it be that you are still afraid that the surnamed Gu will fail?

King Ning leaned on the couch casually, This king is not afraid of anyone. This king is worried that the old man will anger Zhao'er. You won't forget that Zhao'er is still locked in Zongzheng Temple.

Mrs Pei sat down angrily, How could I not remember. But what does repaying the money have to do with Zhao'er? Besides, I didn't say I wouldn't repay it, but I'll repay it later. It all costs money. Give all the money to the Ministry of Household, do you want the whole house to drink the northwest wind?

King Ning said lightly: Isn't there still the king's title? Don't worry, I can't drink the northwest wind.

Pei Shi was annoyed, Who is it that slandered the prince? Was it Chen Liangyuan?

Don't talk nonsense. You also underestimate this king. Is this king someone who can easily be manipulated by women?

King Ning looked displeased and was annoyed that Pei shi looked down on him.

Pei shi asked, Who is that? Someone must have slandered the prince before he changed his mind.

King Ning flatly denied, No one slandered, this king suddenly thought of Zhao'er, so he made this decision.

Pei Shi looked suspicious, she didn't believe a word of this.

She rolled her eyes and didn't bother with King Ning, I'll go to the cashier to have a look.

After that, he left the Tourmaline Pavilion.

The confidant, Qin mama, understood it. As early as when Pei's family was arguing with Ning Wang, she found the little maid in the tourmaline pavilion to inquire about the news.

Before the princess, who came to the tourmaline pavilion?

The little maid recalled: Servant Deng from the East Court came here in the morning.

Deng Cunli?

Exactly.

When Mother Qin got the news, she quickly reported to Mrs. Pei.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Pei said, Humph! This princess knew that Gu Jiu was restless, so she dared to send someone to the prince to slander. Mammy Qin, go to the East Courtyard and ask Gu Jiu to copy the royal family rules a hundred times.

Mother Qin received the order, This servant will go.

Pei Shi added: Tell her when the copying is completed, and when will she be able to leave the East Court. The copywriting must be neat and tidy, and no one can replace it. Otherwise, this princess will tell her not to leave the East Court for the rest of her life.
