Malicious Medical Princess of the Marquis House

The sun shines through the windows and reflects inside the house, forming beams of light.

There is fine dust, fluttering in the light.

Someone walks through the light, and dust floats in chaos.

Madam, the health soup is here, drink it while it's hot.

Qingmei felt sorry for Gu Jiu, so she deliberately boiled a bowl of healthy soup in the small kitchen.

Gu Jiu's expression was indifferent, and he wrote like flying, silently writing the family rules of the palace.

On her left hand, is a thick stack of manuscript paper, all filled with words.

Each one is neatly handwritten and can be used as a template.

Qingmei complained: The princess is too harsh on her, and she actually asked her to copy the house rules a hundred times.

There are 108 rules and 3,000 words in the royal family rules.

One hundred times is three hundred thousand words.

Copying everything by hand is not an easy task.

Gu Jiu said, No need to complain, I'll just practice calligraphy. Look, has my calligraphy improved? It's more powerful than before.

Qingmei looked at it carefully, nodded and said, It is indeed more powerful than before. It's just that Madam has worked too hard. Why don't the servants rub her wrists for Madam.

Gu Jiu shook his head, Wait until I finish writing this page.

She wrote quickly, without the slightest hesitation.

A page of paper was filled with beautiful hairpins in small letters in a blink of an eye.

When the ink is dry, it is placed on top of the high stack of manuscript paper.

Qingzhu brought hot water, applied it to Gu Jiu's hands, and massaged again.

Qingmei rubbed Gu Jiu's shoulders to help her relax.

Gu Jiu let out a comfortable sigh, this day is really comfortable.

Drinking healthy soup and being served by maids, she really is a person who is addicted to enjoyment and can't bear hardship.

The thing she is most worried about now is that Liu Zhao will be defeated in the future, and she will have to accompany Liu Zhao to suffer for decades.

I shudder to think of those hard days.

Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty,

No one is a merciful Lord.

Dealing with royal clansmen and brothers fighting for the throne is even more cruel than dealing with foreign enemies.

Once Prince Ning's Mansion and Liu Zhao were defeated, what awaited them would not be a simple confinement. All kinds of sparring, only unexpected, no people in the palace can't do it.

Gu Jiu bit her lip and opened up the relationship with the south. The matter of sending people to sea must be done as soon as possible.

She had to leave an escape route for herself, Liu Zhao, and future children.

It's just that Liu Zhao is still locked in Zongzheng Temple. Without Liu Zhao as her backer, she really has a lot of constraints in the mansion.

Gu Jiu drank the nourishing soup and asked, Is the master here?

Qingmei nodded, Reporting to Madam, the lord brought the yamen officials to the palace early in the morning. According to Deng's inner servant, the lord prepared a total of 45,000 taels of silver.

Gu Jiu hummed. Forty-five thousand taels is not much, not enough for a fraction. Fortunately, I finally paid it back, and expressed the respect of the palace to the emperor with silver coins.

The Son of Heaven asked to clear up the arrears, and even if the palace was to smash the pot and sell iron, it would still have to take out the money.

This is the attitude of the palace.

It doesn't matter how much money you have, the important thing is that the palace is active in repaying the money and doesn't let the Ministry of Household worry about it.

Compared with other palaces, the attitude alone is superior.

At this moment, in the tourmaline pavilion, Master Gu is restless.

The servants of the palace came in with a few boxes.

The box was filled with white silver, a total of forty-five thousand taels.

King Ning looked weary and lazy, Master Gu, please order it. There are a total of 45,000 taels. This was made by this king after emptying the Wangfu family. If you think it's too little...

clap clap!

King Ning clapped his hands, and soon, another servant came in with a few boxes.

The box was opened, and there were jewels and utensils inside, as well as various ritual utensils, as well as gold, silver, lacquer, and ceramics.

King Ning pointed to these objects and said to Master Gu: This king has collected 45,000 taels of silver. If the household is particularly dissatisfied, then Master Gu will remove all these things. This king is a loyal minister and a filial son, and my father is the emperor. Ordered to clear up the debt, this king must cooperate fully.

Looking at the box full of jewelry, Master Gu broke out in cold sweat.

No wonder when he came in, he felt a little weird in this hall. It turned out that the museum shelf was empty, and there was not a single ornament.

Lord Ganqing packed all the ornaments in this hall into boxes.

Maybe if you change to the Minister of the Ministry of Housing, you will really order people to carry these jewelry away.

But Master Gu dared not.

He was worried that once the jewelry was taken away, rumors that he had taken someone to copy Prince Ning's mansion would spread in a blink of an eye.

He can't afford such a big black pot.

And King Ning's attitude is also very strange.

To be cautious, Master Gu did not act rashly.

He smiled and said cautiously: Your Highness is really good at joking. With these 45,000 taels of silver, whether it is in the court or in the palace, you know that Your Highness has done his best. After all, no one will store it in the palace. Hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.

King Ning laughed, Master Gu is right, of course it's impossible for this king to hide hundreds of thousands of taels of gold and silver in the house.

There are nearly 1,000 people in the house, and they can't make ends meet every month. After paying back the forty-five thousand taels, the palace will drink the northwest wind.

Hey, this king is also in trouble. This king also does not want to go to the Ministry of Household to fight the autumn wind, but the family has a great business and the money is not enough to spend, so I have no choice but to ask the Ministry of Household to turn it around.

Who would have thought that after a few years, the Ministry of Household owes hundreds of thousands of taels. With so many debts, this king is unable to handle it, and is temporarily unable to repay it in full. I also ask Master Gu to explain a thing or two for this king. If the Ministry of Household is unwilling to accept it, Lord Gu should move these properties away. Convert it to see how much you owe.

Master Gu shook his head again and again, Your Highness has been worrying too much. These items should be kept with Your Highness and complement each other.

King Ning smiled, Master Gu really doesn't want these things?

How can this official take away the items of the palace at will. It is absolutely impossible, not allowed.

King Ning laughed, My in-laws are honest people.

In such a long time, King Ning called Master Gu his in-laws for the first time, which made him so excited.

The little girl married into the palace. If you do something wrong, the prince will punish you.

King Ning said with a smile: My relatives are worrying too much. Dalang's daughter-in-law is very good, virtuous and virtuous, how could this king punish her.

Master Gu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and the whole person also relaxed, not as restrained as before.

King Ning pulled Master Gu, chatted around and chatted for half an hour.

Mr. Gu was still unfinished, seeing that it was getting late, so he said goodbye. Called the Master, carried a few boxes of silver taels out of the palace, and went to the Ministry of Household to do business.

The Minister of the Household learned that Master Gu received 45,000 taels from Prince Ning's mansion. Although it was still too small compared to the amount owed, at least a hole was opened.

He thought that he must encourage Master Gu to make persistent efforts to continue clearing the arrears.

It's just that the words just came out, and Hu Cao came to report, Sir, there is something wrong with Yin and Yang.

Master Gu was furious, How could it be wrong? This official saw 45,000 taels of white silver with his own eyes. You shouldn't insult this official.

Hu Cao said humbly, If you don't believe me, Master Gu, you can go to test it in person. You have all the people from the Yin Yamen in the capital, and you can testify for the lower official, who has not used the money.

Master Gu rushed to the household warehouse in a rage.

Forty-five thousand taels of silver were about to be put into the warehouse, but Hu Cao said that the silver they brought back was wrong and would not be put into the warehouse. This is troublesome.

When the yamen saw Lord Gu, they rushed over.

My lord, these silvers were indeed brought back from the palace, so how could there be a problem. It is clearly the people from the Ministry of Household that made things difficult for me.

Yes, it's clearly making things difficult.

The old man is here, let him go.

The Minister of Hu came forward, picked up one ingot and five taels of silver, and weighed the weight in his hand.

Then he asked Lord Gu: Do you know what kind of silver this is?

Master Gu was a little stunned, and finally realized the crux of the problem.

He quickly picked up a piece of silver, put it on his mouth and bit it, This is southwest silver.

Exactly!

There are many silver mines in the southwest. After the silver is mined, the silver mine supervisor will order people to make the silver into five taels and one ingots according to the mold and transport them to the capital.

However, because there are many silver impurities in the southwest, it is said that it is five taels, but it is actually less than five taels.

After the silver is transported to the capital, it is usually returned to the furnace for recasting. Five taels of southwest silver can be obtained for about four taels of official silver.

The Ministry of Accounts collects silver, and only accepts a full amount of Guanping silver.

Master Gu's face turned pale.

Five taels of silver became four taels of silver, forty-five thousand taels, and all of a sudden, nine thousand taels were lost, and it became thirty-six thousand taels.

A full nine thousand taels.

Master Gu asked anxiously, What about the signature? Hurry up and hand over the signature to this official for review?

On the signature, only 45,000 taels of silver were written.

Master Gu's heart sank.

He turned his head sharply and looked at Master Ma, I remember that when I checked the silver, I saw it was Guan Pingyin with my own eyes, right?

Master Ma nodded again and again, Xiaoguan confirmed that it is Guanping silver, and every box has been inspected.

All Guanping silver will have the year and furnace number at the bottom.

These southwestern silvers, just a piece of silver, with nothing at the bottom.

At this time, Gu Yu stood up and said, Mr. Qi, Xiaguan can also confirm that the box was indeed filled with Guanping silver at the beginning.

Mr. Gu was anxious, and said to the Minister of the Household: Boss, you have also heard that at the beginning, these silvers were indeed five taels and one ingots of official silver, and this official has absolutely no courage to cheat.

The Minister of the Household pondered for a moment and asked, Did you immediately return with the suitcase after you checked the silver in the palace?

Master Gu shook his head, I didn't come back right away. The lord dragged the lower official and chatted for half an hour.

Gu Yu frowned, The money was obviously stolen when he was in the palace.

Master Ma nodded again and again, During the period, the lower official had abdominal discomfort, and he had been away for a while. It is estimated that he was given away by the people of the palace at that time.

Master Gu slapped his head sharply, King Ning harmed me!

He really thought that King Ning was sincere with him, and dragged him to chat for half an hour.

At the time, he still felt unfulfilled.

Unexpectedly, it was all a trick.

King Ning was treacherous and even exchanged the Southwest Silver for Guanping Silver.

No, I have to go to King Ning to ask for an explanation. Why did he want to harm me?

Gu Yu was worried, Your Highness will not admit it.

Master Ma is also so worried, The lord deliberately plotted against the lord, and he is obviously ready to deal with the questioning from the lord. Maybe he will fight back, accusing the lord of enriching his own pockets and secretly changing the money.

He dares!

He really dared to do this. Minister Hu Bu sighed, Master Gu, you are too careless. It's about the amount of money, how can you not pay attention.

Mr. Gu regretted it too late, and felt extremely resentful in his heart.

Also ask the boss to help me. After speaking, he bowed deeply.

The Minister of the Household shook his head, On the receipt, it is clearly written 45,000 taels. Now you say that King Ning only gave 36,000 taels, how could he recognize it. If you are not careful, this lawsuit will be hit to His Majesty. Come forward. Master Gu, you are sure you have a chance of winning.

How about that?

You can only make up for the nine thousand taels from your own pocket.

boom!

Master Gu slammed his fist against the wall.

This officer can't take this breath.

The minister of households persuaded: 9,000 taels to buy a lesson, not a loss.

Nine thousand taels is not much, Master Gu can take it out.

But he was not willing to suffer this injustice.

He really didn't expect that the two families were in-laws anyway, and King Ning was also generous and took the initiative to repay the money. As a result, King Ning actually set him up for a total of 9,000 taels.

When the news spread, he really became the laughing stock of the capital.

Master Gu said to the Minister of the Ministry of Housing: I will deal with this matter later. Everyone, go to the palace with this official to collect debts.

This time, he didn't take Ning Wang off the skin, and he didn't take the surname Gu.

The Minister of the Household advised: Master Gu, be careful and don't get angry.

However, Master Gu said: Even if the lawsuit is brought to the front of the imperial court, the subordinate officer will take care of it. The subordinate officer has sent an order to clear up the debts, and whoever dares to refuse, Jin Wuwei will serve.

The minister of households frowned, King Ning's move is really irritating. Okay, this official supports you. If King Ning refuses to take out the money, this official will report the truth to His Majesty, and then there will be Jin Wuwei to entertain King Ning.

Civil servants have always disliked these royal clansmen, believing that they are a bunch of worms.

Since Mr. Gu has the courage to stand up against King Ning, there is no reason for the Minister of the Household to stop him.

He figured it out, taking advantage of this incident and writing a good article, he must tell these royal clansmen to walk away.

With King Ning's lessons learned, it will be much easier to clear up the debt afterward.

Worrying that Mr. Gu could not do well, the Minister of Hu also sent Hu Cao to him, and asked Hu Cao to help Mr. Gu to clear up the debt.

Master Gu was full of anger, and with the yamen, he aggressively attacked Ning Wangfu.

My lord, it's not good. Master Gu brought someone to ask for debts again. The steward reported in a panic.

Ning Wang casually said, Tell him that there is no money.

Master Gu also said that if he doesn't give the money, he will bring the lawsuit to the front of the imperial court.

He dares!

King Ning snorted, Gu Zhili was so bold that he dared to shout in front of the palace gate.

Go, bring a few guards and blast them all away.

The servant Chang En persuaded: My lord, shouldn't it be more gentle?

King Ning smiled contemptuously, This king has no money, what will he do? Even if the lawsuit is brought to the front, this king still has no money. If it doesn't work, this king will turn into a seller on the street and pay his debts.

This……

Chang En knew that King Ning was angry, so it was hard to persuade him.

He waved to the steward, Do as the lord ordered.

The steward took orders and left.

However, King Ning still underestimated Master Gu.

The guards of the palace fought in the street with the yamen of the Yin Yamen in the capital city. The matter spread quickly throughout the capital and the inner palace of the palace as if it had grown wings.

Song Zheng, who is now the guard of the palace, hurriedly came to the east courtyard, Madam, it's not good. Master Gu brought the yamen to fight with the guards of the palace.

what happened?

Gu Jiu was dumbfounded.

Things were changing so fast that she couldn't keep up.

Song Zheng took a few breaths and said, I heard from the yamen that the lord replaced Guanping silver with southwest silver, and Master Gu would have to bear the loss of 9,000 taels for nothing.

Gu Jiu's face was ugly, The silver was exchanged, and no one found out?

Song Zheng said: The lord kept talking with Master Gu, and the conversation was very enjoyable. During the period, Master Ma and the others had abdominal discomfort and went to the toilet. It is estimated that the silver was changed at that time. Later, the yamen did not check the boxes and cages, and carried them He left the palace with the box. Who would have thought that the prince would order someone to exchange all the silver in the box for southwest silver.

Snapped!

The inkstone was swept to the ground by Gu Jiu, and the ink splattered all over the floor.

Gu Jiu's face was ashen, My dignified lord, play the bag trick. Do you really think everyone is a fool, will they swallow their anger?

At this moment, Gu Jiu really hated King Ning to death.

The palace does not lack the nine thousand taels.

King Ning just played tricks and let people lose the money in the box. I really don't know what he was thinking.

Is it for her?

Or go for Master Gu?

Or molesting the Ministry?

While taking the initiative to repay the debt, he also played tricks. All the good feelings that he had accumulated before were all lost.

Are you really not afraid of His Majesty's guilt?

King Ning was by no means someone who wanted money but not his life, and the palace was not so poor that he couldn't afford nine thousand taels. King Ning had no reason to ruin his reputation for the sake of nine thousand taels.

Is he doing this just for disgusting people?

Gu Jiu said sharply, Follow me to see the prince.
