Malicious Medical Princess of the Marquis House

Empress Dowager Xiao was still angry, so she would not have a good face when she saw Gu Jiu.

The granddaughter-in-law greets the imperial grandmother.

Where are you going? People run away without saying hello. Who do you learn the rules from?

Empress Dowager Xiao asked in a critical tone.

Gu Jiu pursed her lips and said solemnly, Don't dare to deceive the imperial grandmother, the rules of grandson-in-law are learned from the first grandmother of Weiyang Palace.

Everyone was stunned for a while, before they realized what Gu Jiu meant.

The first Weiyang Palace is not Empress Ruizhen Cui.

Thinking about it, before Empress Ruizhen Cui passed away, Gu Jiu lived in the palace for a period of time, learning the rules from her mother every day.

She was not wrong to say so.

Ah! The Huyang County Lord called out first, I remembered that the eldest nephew and daughter-in-law hadn't married Liu Zhao at that time, right?

Gu Jiu nodded slightly, Aunt is right.

The Huyang County Lord laughed, So speaking, your rules are also learned from the palace, not bad.

What's good? Empress Dowager Xiao's face was as gloomy as water.

Weiyang Palace is a thorn in the heart of Empress Dowager Xiao.

She was not qualified to live in Weiyang Palace when she was a late emperor.

After her son became the emperor, she was still not qualified to live in Weiyang Palace.

Although the Cining Palace is very good, as a harem woman, it is a lifetime regret that she has never lived in the Weiyang Palace for a day in her life.

She never lived in Weiyang Palace, which meant that when the late emperor was alive, she was always a concubine. Even if the status is noble, it cannot hide the fact of the concubine.

The Huyang County Lord took the Empress Dowager Xiao's arm, Mother, be happy for the New Year this year.

Empress Dowager Xiao sneered, Ai's family has nothing to be happy about. First, the maid of Weiyang Palace, Aijia looks at it like that. All kinds of messy things don't all start from Weiyang Palace. Now, how can you learn the rules well?

Gu Jiu really wanted to slap Empress Dowager Xiao: Weiyang Palace leads the harem, Weiyang Palace is in chaos, how can Changchun Palace be better? The Weiyang Palace was in a mess, and the Changchun Palace was inevitably filthy.

When the words reached his mouth, Gu Jiu swallowed again.

It's cool to hate the Queen Mother Xiao, but the consequences are serious. She couldn't bring trouble to Liu Zhao.

So she whispered: The maids are all strict. Perhaps the grandson-in-law was stupid and failed to grasp the essence of the rules in the palace.

The Empress Dowager Xiao's face became a little better, I know that I am stupid, but I am still saved. A few women specially selected by the Aijia for Liu Zhao have served in the palace for at least five years, all of them are strict and orderly. You If you are virtuous, you should take the initiative to bring people back. Instead of worrying about men.

Gu Jiu hurriedly said: The grandmother is right. Grandson-in-law doesn't want His Highness to worry about it, but His Highness is poor and short-sighted. Every month, he sends someone to Sund-in-law's place to fight the autumn wind and use money to support the people below.

The grandson-in-law relied on the dowry to make a living. She worked hard all these years, and finally made some money. She wanted to save some fortune for Yu Ge'er, but she asked His Royal Highness to hug him.

The grandmother felt sorry for His Highness, and arranged a few sympathetic people to serve him, and the grandson-in-law was very grateful. It's just that the granddaughter-in-law is a little worried. It's easy to bring people back. It's just who should pay for the money to support the family, who should the granddaughter ask for the money to support the family, and ask the grandmother to give a hint.

His Highness can't even support himself, so he certainly can't count on it. The granddaughter-in-law's dowry should be left to the royal brother. And there is no reason for the wife to pay for a concubine for the man.

Empress Dowager Xiao looked annoyed, The grand royal family, can I lose the money for raising a woman?

Gu Jiu looked relieved, I wonder how many women the imperial grandmother has prepared for His Highness?

Four. Empress Dowager Xiao snorted, Aijia loves him, so he specially prepared four women for him, all of them are easy to bear. After two years, they have children, and they have to call you mother.

Grandson-in-law can't afford to be a mother to so many children, grandson-in-law is poor.

As soon as these words came out, some people couldn't help but laugh.

Gu Jiu continued: Four women, less than 12,300 taels of annual expenses. If a child is born after two years, even if one person is one, then four plus four will cost at least 30,000 yuan a year. , below 50,000.

Taking an intermediate value, it takes 40,000 taels of silver a year to support these people. After all, she is a member of the royal family, even if her concubine is a concubine, she has to be rich and supportive. I don't know if the 40,000 taels were paid by the Shaofu or by the Ministry of Households? If the grandmother is willing to subsidize, the grandson-in-law will be very grateful.

Everyone was laughing.

Compared with Liu Zhao's single-handed approach and neatness, Gu Jiu's method is to twist and turn, and to be obscure.

It makes people feel very uncomfortable, and it is not easy to attack.

The Empress Dowager Xiao took a deep breath, Can the Shaofu lose your 40,000 taels? Presumptuous!

Gu Jiu blinked, Is the Shaofu so generous now? Blessed are your royal highnesses. If you take a few more concubines, you can get a few more money from the Shaofu. If you are a little harsher, at least half of the money will be left. A good deal.

puff!

Xiao Qin'er covered her lips and snickered, Sister-in-law really dares to say it. But does raising a few concubines really cost so much money? It's too expensive.

She looked at Liu Yi, but Liu Yi didn't look at her, but stared at Gu Jiu.

Xiao Qin'er snorted and secretly pulled Liu Yi's sleeve.

Liu Yi came back to his senses and looked at her with a frown.

What are you looking at? Xiao Qin'er asked in a low voice.

Liu Yi shook his head, Nothing.

Humph! Sister-in-law's account can be calculated clearly? It's really not worth the cost of raising a few women a year.

You don't have to say a few words, and don't look at the occasion.

Xiao Qin'er closed her mouth.

Ouyang Fu is very good at reckoning.

Gu Jiu's words touched her heart.

No one present knew better than her how much the concubines and concubines spent.

The eldest son of the second concubine was born, and the money was spent like flowing water.

Just raising a child, but spending too much money is like a bottomless pit.

Four concubines and four concubines have children. According to the royal family standard, 40,000 taels of silver a year is a low match.

A little richer, 40,000 taels can't stand spending at all. The end of the year is definitely a deficit.

Why!

If men had the brains of a sister-in-law and could calculate the cost of raising a child and raising a child, there would be much less work in the house.

It's absurd! It's about the heirs, but you and Ai's family are talking about money. It's just bullshitting.

Empress Dowager Xiao scolded Gu Jiu sharply.

Gu Jiu looked aggrieved, But people live in this world, how can they not spend money. Is there a special way to maintain health for the woman that the grandmother gave to His Highness, without having to eat or dress? In that case, from His Highness I have some money out of my salary, and I can barely afford it.”

Ha ha……

This time, even the Huyang County Lord burst into laughter.

She found that Gu Jiu was really cute when she pretended to be stupid.

why are you laughing?

Empress Dowager Xiao's eyes are not good, and there is a big disagreement, so she will clean up her daughter.

Huyang County Master seemed to be strangled by the neck, and the laughter stopped abruptly.

She waved her hand and coughed lightly, No, it's nothing. But what the eldest nephew and daughter-in-law said is right, it costs money to keep someone. Does the royal brother have money? Money to support women for a few nephews.

you shut up.

Empress Dowager Xiao really did not expect that her own daughter would be demolished again and again.

The Empress Dowager Xiao was so angry that she didn't choose to say anything, Gu Jiu, everyone in the capital said that you made a lot of money by repairing your house. Since you are so rich, it doesn't matter if you take some out to raise a few women for Liu Zhao. You have to be a woman. Xianhui. You are the real Xianhui if you are willing to support Liu Zhao's backyard.

Gu Jiu frowned slightly and said softly, In the past, there was a Master Luo in the Hou's residence. She said that her grandson-in-law had a bright head and was extremely intelligent. When she was learning the rules in the palace, the grandmother in the palace also said that her grandson-in-law was quite smart. , I'm not stupid, I'm really smart, the master and the mammy are right.

I spend money to raise women and concubines for His Highness. Then those women's wings became hard, which made me unhappy. When the concubine grew up, he began to compete with my son for the family business and the favor of His Highness.

For the money I spent, in addition to gaining a reputation for being virtuous, I found a bunch of unhappy brothers for myself and a bunch of uneasy brothers for my son. Wronged yourself, fulfilled others.

Grandmother, tell your grandson-in-law, what do I want to spend this money on! Just to be kind? The virtuous can neither eat nor drink, nor become money, nor let the concubines and concubines be grateful, neither fight nor rob.

Grandma, I'm not stupid. I took the dowry as a basis and worked hard to earn money, not to raise a few more worry-free brothers for my son, nor to aggrieve myself.

You are fine, just spare the grandson-in-law. It's not easy for grandson-in-law to save some money, and it's all for brother Yu. His father couldn't support him, and my mother couldn't help but support him. Grandmother, please let your grandson-in-law save some fortune for your brother. As a royal son, life is really not easy.

A sentence is not easy, I don't know how many people's hearts have been touched.

Everyone in the hall was as quiet as chickens, all waiting for the Queen Mother Xiao's reaction.

The Queen Mother Xiao pointed at Gu Jiu, so angry that she was speechless.

The Lord of Huyang County hurriedly reassured, Mom, please calm down. The eldest nephew and the daughter-in-law have indeed made money these years, but the expenses are also high. It is estimated that she will not be able to raise the money for Liu Zhao to raise a woman and a concubine. It is better to wait for the future. Let’s be more generous, and we’ll talk about this after the emperor’s elder brother has bestowed honors on their brothers.”

Are you deliberately trying to piss off Aijia?

The Queen Mother Xiao finally made a sound.

Gu Jiu was wronged and did not say anything.

What's the matter with the queen mother? Whoever makes the queen unhappy, tell me that I will vent my anger on behalf of the queen.

Emperor Wende brought his harem woman to Cining Palace to greet Empress Dowager Xiao.

The Empress Dowager Xiao pointed at Gu Jiu, Who else could there be? This one, and the one kneeling outside. The Aijia kindly rewarded Liu Zhao with a few women, but the kid was messing around with the Aijia family, and for a while he said that he had no money to support women. For a while, he said that there was a difference between the concubines and concubines, and looked down on the concubines.

Your Majesty, you are also a concubine. Liu Zhao said that he looked down on a concubine because he was unfilial. I want to punish him, do you have any opinion?

Emperor Wende laughed, Punish it, even if it's fine, I don't mind. What's the matter with the eldest daughter-in-law?

Emperor Wen De's eyes fell on Gu Jiu, a little puzzled.
