The eldest princess and Li [rebirth]

The marriage between Princess Xinping and the prime minister was an old agreement, and the two didn't have much affection. Before they got married, the two were well-behaved, and there was no rumor about meeting each other.

It is shocking to hear such rumors now.

Chu Ran stayed in the Princess Mansion to split the money from the hot springs into several parts, and sent them out of Yingdu City in batches, and by the way, properly handled Liancheng's marriage.

Before the wedding date came, there were still many things to deal with. In the end, the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion came to the capital to sit in charge in person. After the handover between the two, Chu Ran was completely at ease.

When the eldest lady came, she brought money for marriage, but after filling in the gaps, it was still not enough. She looked at the account book in a daze: "How come marriage in the capital is better than that in the northwest. If this continues, even a daughter-in-law will not be able to marry."

The folk customs in the northwest are simple and simple, and there are more rules than those in the city of Yingdu. The lady has been in the northwest for more than 20 years, and she has already forgotten the rules and habits in the city of Yingdu.

Chu Ran has been to the northwest, and understands these minutiae issues. She carefully removed the account books and said, "Your Majesty's decree is in advance. It is easy to marry in Liancheng. If you follow the aristocratic family, you will spend more money."

The eldest lady was still in a daze and didn't react for a long time. After hearing Chu Ran's explanation, she patted the table and said, "After getting married, I will go back to the northwest. How can I afford to stay in Yingdu?"

She likes the folk customs in the northwest, she is hard to be restrained, and she has a very free and easy temper, which made Xinyang who was beside her purse her lips and laughed, "Don't forget the identity of your new daughter-in-law, madam, how can you go to the northwest."

Feng Tang is favored by the prime minister, and he will definitely not leave.Da furen slapped her forehead, "Look at my brain, then I won't leave, leave some debts for them to pay back."

Xinyang squirted out the imported tea again. This lady from the Lian family really had a different way of thinking.

In the end, Mrs. Lian had no choice but to ask Chu Ran to borrow a few thousand taels of silver, write an IOU and press her fingerprints, saying that Liancheng would pay it back.

As soon as she left the Princess Mansion, Xin Yang started nagging: "Sister, General Xiao Lian's monthly salary is only more than a dozen taels of silver. How long does it take for this to happen? Isn't Da Furen harming her son like this?"

Chu Ran thought about it, and before he thought about it, Xinyang said again: "Sister, where did you get so much money, and the money in my princess's mansion is getting less and less."

"You have nothing to come out of the fief?" Chu Ran asked strangely. Xinping is remote and barren, and there are few good harvest years. Therefore, she generally lowers taxes, as long as the people are self-sufficient.

Xinyang is different, the fief is relatively rich, so there is no silver.

"I don't know. People are not in the fief, so they can't see anything." Xinyang was distressed, and she didn't know how to take care of it.

"You, go into the palace and ask Concubine Ming, maybe all your money has been hidden by Concubine Ming." Chu Ran shook her head helplessly. You only see silver, what a little prodigal.

Xinyang touched the teacup in his hand suspiciously, and approached Sister A: "Sister, how about lending me some money?"

"What do you want money for?" Chu Ran was startled by her words. The previous words were just throwing bricks and attracting jade. What I really wanted to say was the latter words. Borrowing money is the ultimate goal.

Xinyang's eyelids twitched, and he hesitated and said: "Uncle Ning asked me to do a hot spring together. Tao is a good business, and he will definitely make a lot of money."

She was innocent and scheming, and was asked by Chu Ran with a single sentence. She forgot what Uncle Ning Wang had told him not to say, and regretted it after she said it. She covered her mouth and looked at Sister with wide eyes.

There is only one hot spring in the huge city of Yingdu, which is not as numerous as the Qinglou Chu Pavilion, and the hot springs are located in a special location, drawing mountain spring water, so no businessman dares to compete for business.

After so many years, no one would grab the business of the Zhao Family Hot Springs. King Ning probably took a fancy to the fun of the hot springs, so he took Xinyang along for some reason.

"Xinyang, what are you doing with Uncle Ning?"

"He said that you and my sister are deeply in love. If there is any difficulty, Prime Minister Lu will help. It would be great to kill two birds with one stone." Xinyang did not hide anything, and spoke out King Ning's plan.

Such a small calculation is also in line with his temperament, so Chu Ran doesn't find it strange. The hot spring hall is a gold-selling cave, and the money spent is too high.

In the hands of Lu Xiang, it has only improved in recent days, and King Ning wants to grab business.

"How much money will King Ning ask you to pay?"

Xinyang extended a slap, and Chu Ran asked curiously, "500 taels?"

"5000 taels."

"You borrow it from Concubine Ming yourself, I don't have any money for you." Chu Ran directly refused, and lent you money to open a hot spring restaurant to compete with him. No one is so stupid as this.

"Concubine Ming knows she will be angry. I just want to try it. I heard that the hot springs make a lot of money." Xinyang drooped his head and rubbed Chu Ran's shoulder, "Sister, lend me a try."

"No, you don't play with Uncle Ning, his family is entangled, why are you making trouble, you'd better go back to the house to play with your flowers, wine and fruits, and tell Concubine Ming to let you kneel down to your abacus." Chu Ran said unhappily .

Xinyang was stunned when he heard the words kneeling on the abacus, "Where did this move come from, why kneeling on the abacus?"

"I heard from my aunt that Northwesterners seem to like to punish this. Don't ask more questions, and go back to the house." Chu Ran didn't want to talk more, and motioned the maid to see the guests off, so as not to listen to her nagging, her head All followed by pain.

Xinyang made a foolish mistake again, knelt down to think about the punishment, she walked to the main entrance in a daze, looked up and saw the prime minister getting off the car.

There was no way to avoid it, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk over. The prime minister saluted as usual. She remembered the rumor that the prime minister was sleeping on the floor today, and wondered if she was also kneeling on the abacus.

The voice was not too loud, Lu Shi's face almost turned red, and his cold eyes glanced: "Where did you hear that, Your Highness?"

"I'm just asking. If you kneel down, tell me. Sister is scaring me." Xinyang was foolish and refused to let go of this question.

Lu Shi restrained his emotions slightly, and said, "Never."

She raised her feet and went up the steps, leaving Xinyang alone at the gate of the mansion, blowing the cool breeze, at a loss.

Lu Shi, who entered the mansion, ignored Xin Yang's nonsense, walked around the vertical flower gate and saw Chu Ran coming towards him. The gate of the Princess Mansion is really a rare visitor."

After listening to the displeased words of the princess, the maid who led the way backed away, leaving the stone path to the two of them.

After all the maidservants in the courtyard retreated, Lu Shi slowly approached her: "Your Highness, when did you kneel down and make an abacus?"

"What are you talking nonsense about?" Chu Ran couldn't understand her serious face, Fang said such nonsense as soon as they met, was it stimulated?

"It's hard to say here, go to Your Highness' bedroom." Lu Shi took her arm and walked towards the backyard.

Chu Ran, who was being dragged away by her, was puzzled: "What are you doing in the bedroom, Lu Xiang is looking for me during the day for something unscrupulous?"

"Your Highness, if you talk nonsense again, you will try to kneel down like Princess Xinyang." Lu Shi threatened softly.

She was seldom so strict, and Chu Ran was so frightened that she quickly shut her mouth. How did the prime minister know about kneeling on the abacus? It's hard to see the eldest aunt.

Why did the eldest aunt mention these things to her?

After the two entered the bedroom, Chu Ran broke free from her restraints, rubbed her arms, and took two steps back: "What do you want me for?"

"The emperor's grandson is ill." Lu Shi said.

"Are you seriously ill?" Chu Ran was shocked. She hadn't heard any news from the mansion.

"The imperial doctor was invited last night, and the high fever subsided. Today, His Majesty was expelled from court, and Mrs. Lin happened to go to the imperial hospital to find out that this matter was kept secret, so His Highness pretended not to know, but he needed to find a way to take the emperor and grandson back to the East Palace and hand them over to the imperial hospital. Take care of the princess." Lu Shi looked calm, sat down on the couch, and comforted Chu Ran after analyzing.

"Although the emperor's grandson is small, he is also a thorn in the eyes of the princes. It is a great honor to be placed in the Zhanghua Palace, but it also shows His Majesty's disappointment with the princes. After a long time, the relationship between His Highness and the emperor's grandson may become as indifferent as water." .”

Chu Ran felt relieved when he heard that the high fever had subsided, let out a long breath, and asked tentatively: "Can Prime Minister Lu have a way to let the emperor and grandson return to the East Palace?"

"Your Majesty has been taking elixir for a long time, and his condition is unstable. When he feels uncomfortable, let the princess go to Zhanghuatai to cry. Maybe your majesty has no intention of raising him and will give the child to the princess." Lu Shi said.

In fact, if you count the time, your majesty's health will deteriorate in less than a year. I'm afraid that your majesty will not have time to take care of the emperor's grandson, and someone else will take the emperor's grandson away, which will be disadvantageous to Chu Ran.

"Then when do we have to wait?" Chu Ran sat down anxiously, since Lu Xiang said this, he must have a solution.

The corners of Lu Shi's lips curved, and the cold arc made Chu Ran inexplicably stunned, "What do you want to do?"

"Just wait, don't be in a hurry, what did His Highness say to Xinyang?" Lu Shi was cautious in handling things, grasped the measure, and would not say anything about his plans until the last moment.

"She asked me to borrow money to open a hot spring with King Ning, and I would scare her, and be careful that Concubine Ming would punish her to kneel down." Chu Ran replied truthfully. Ri wanted to reconcile, but she pushed her down.

On Tuesday, the son had an heir and wanted to put it under Xinyang's name, but Xinyang didn't feel much about it, but the concubine Ming refused to agree.

If she refused, Xinyang would not agree, and had an unpleasant quarrel with Zhou's second wife.

Lu Shi said casually: "Let Concubine Ming take care of it. As for the hot springs, I intend to sell them out and let people find a buyer."

"What are you selling for, how much money?" Chu Ran knew that she couldn't be persuaded, so he wanted to take the money for himself instead.

"There are still 10,000+ taels of silver on the account, and if you want to sell it, you need more."

"With so much money, will anyone take it?"

"Yes, if King Ning wants to open a hot spring, it's okay to offer it to him." Lu Shi smiled. The main reason is that King Ning can afford the money, and the hot spring occupies a special area. The price in Yingdu City is already high.

The museum has been in operation for many years, and the gold signboard is also very valuable.

Chu Ran was dragged into the gutter by her: "Xinyang just borrowed 5000 taels of silver, which is a big difference. Will King Ning agree?"

"His Highness kneels down and counts, and there will be an answer."

Chu Ran: "..."

"Don't fool me. Before I let you kneel down, you threatened me. Just let me know how much money you sell for the hot spring. Remember to give me the money. That's my hot spring. "Chu Ran knew that she would drag herself into the gutter, and that she would be led into a trap if she cared too much about things.

Just wait for the checkout.
