Chapter 230 Gifts
Chapter 230 Giving Gifts
The news that King Qin was ill soon reached even Lu Shege.
At this moment, Lu Xiangge was sitting in the Jixiang Tower drinking tea. Shopkeeper Li, who was sitting next to him and calculating accounts with a golden abacus, also stopped his fingers when he heard this and asked: "I heard that you went to the Prince of Qin's Mansion for a banquet. Since the Prince of Qin was hosting the banquet,
For those who are tired and sick, why don’t you also give some gifts to show your appreciation.”
Shopkeeper Li has only felt proud of the spring breeze these days.
Lu Xiaosi was able to receive a message from the Prince of Qin's Mansion and went to the Prince of Qin's Mansion for a banquet with the Crown Prince.
Although he had doubts in his heart, he also knew that as long as Lu Xiaosi wanted to do something, there would be a way.
Besides, Lu Xiaosi didn't hide it from him, she was on the side of King Qin.
It's a pity that King Qin is weak, and I don't know if he can win the battle for the dragon son with consolation.
Lu Sheige did not answer Shopkeeper Li's question. Instead, he asked Li Taoshan, who had inquired about the news: "Are there any gifts from each government?"
Tao Shan said hurriedly: "Yes, when I came back, Zhenguo Duke's Mansion, Yongyi Marquis' Mansion, and Prince Cheng's Mansion had all sent people to send delicious nourishing products to Prince Qin's Mansion. The other mansions attending the banquet were also preparing, it should be later
It will be sent."
Shopkeeper Li said puzzledly: "These houses are moving very fast this time."
Logically speaking, shouldn't they just wait and see and protect themselves wisely?
Lu Sheige asked directly: "Did the palace send something to Prince Qin's palace?"
Li Taoshan also had to admire Lu Xiangge's keenness: "Yes, I heard that Eunuch Deng personally sent two boxes of nourishing medicinal materials to the palace, and two boxes of unknown contents. They are heavy and should be gold, silver and jewelry.
within.”
"That must be money." Lu Sheige picked up the peanuts on the table and rubbed them between his fingers. "The emperor is not blind. He naturally knows that what King Qin needs when he leaves the palace is money. It is better to give some money to King Qin to coax him.
The queen is happy. It's a pity that the father's love is there, but not much."
Shopkeeper Li, who was still deep in thought, looked at the confused Li Taoshan and sighed inwardly, this eldest son-in-law is indeed loyal and honest, but it is a pity that he is not as smart as Lu Xiaosi.
In his heart, he was satisfied with his eldest son-in-law, but he was a little unwilling to do so. He deliberately asked: "Why do you say that?"
Shopkeeper Li asked this question just because he wanted Lu Xiangge to say a few more words so that he could give some advice to Li Taoshan.
"If you really feel sorry for the King of Qin who has no money to use, it would be great to give him a banknote, which is light and unobtrusive." Lu Sheige sneered, "Carrying two boxes of gold and silver jewelry is just for everyone to see, so that people know how much he cares about His Highness the King of Qin.
There is still a father's love. Otherwise, why would someone find out these two boxes of gold and silver jewelry before they even entered Prince Qin's palace?"
Shopkeeper Li looked at the dumbfounded Li Taoshan and couldn't help but twist his beard. It doesn't matter that the eldest son-in-law is not smart enough.
If everyone was like Lu Xiaosi, he would probably be plotted to the point where he would not be able to survive, yet he still had to praise this son-in-law.
"What gift should we give you?" Shopkeeper Li Nianxu looked at Lu Xiangge with a smile, and asked tentatively, "Why don't you give the King of Qin a bonsai of good fortune, wealth, longevity and happiness, so that we can make a perfect pair."
Lu Sheige shook his head: "No, I will prepare some things later, and my brother-in-law will deliver them to Prince Qin's Mansion personally."
Although the fortune cost her a lot of money, these things were just like the two boxes of gold and silver jewelry sent by the emperor. They were all done to save face.
Although useful, it is not considerate enough.
Now that she has found out the true identity of King Qin, it is naturally impossible for her to do such superficial things again.
On the second day, Lu Shege sent Li Taoshan to personally deliver the jewelry to King Qin's palace and placed it on King Qin's bedside.
The jewelry box is carved from red sandalwood, with clear patterns on the top and dazzling gems inlaid on the corners. It is as heroic as ever, and people can't help but wonder what kind of rare treasures are in this box.
King Qin was leaning on the bed, his slender fingers gently stroking the jewelry box. After a long time, he chuckled and opened the box.
A box full of banknotes, almost overflowing.
As soon as the box was opened, a few pictures couldn't wait to fall onto the brocade quilt.
"Ha..." King Qin chuckled. This girl is still so quirky and smart.
First, he sent a pot of good fortune, wealth, longevity and happiness to the third prince Chen Jianye. It was just a test. If the third prince needed this pot of gold, silver and jewelry, he could break it apart and exchange it for silver. If the third prince didn't need it, it would be better to just throw it in the warehouse to gather dust.
It's no big deal. Anyway, she is a businessman, and her wealth is her essence.
Now, knowing that he was ill, she sent things from the palace and various palaces. She did not send gold, silver, medicinal materials, or nourishing products, but she sent him a box full of silver notes.
This thing is what is really useful to him!
King Qin closed the box without changing his expression, then picked up a few silver notes that had fallen on the brocade quilt and handed them to Eunuch Cheng: "Take these bank notes and send them to the accounting room. Let Lei Ming come in. I have something to do with him."
.”
Eunuch Cheng took the banknote, lowered his head and said yes.
After he left King Qin's chamber, he carefully opened his hand and looked at the banknote in his hand.
There are six in total, one thousand taels each!
"Good boy..." Even the well-informed Eunuch Cheng couldn't help shaking his hands.
He thought of the jewelry box that King Qin opened. If the box was full, if they were all one thousand taels each, how much silver would that be?
This Fourth Young Master Lu turns out to be the God of Wealth!
Thinking that King Qin was looking for Lei Ming, Eunuch Cheng thought about it again.
Could it be that King Qin came to Lei Ming to ask him to find out about Fourth Young Master Lu?
Lei Ming should be the person that Queen Shen gave to King Qin. Of course, the people that Queen Shen gave to King Qin also included him as Cheng Fangyuan.
There were five people in total, thundering, breaking clouds, shaking rain, breaking snow, and riding the wind.
Cheng Fangyuan didn't even see the other four, and the only one who had been following King Qin was Lei Ming.
Cheng Fangyuan didn't know where Lei Ming and the others came from, but he knew that they were extremely capable and were secretly protecting King Qin.
These five people followed King Qin earlier than he did. They should have been with King Qin before he entered the palace.
Thinking that Queen Shen was struggling alone in the harem, and could also make suggestions for King Qin to win over his confidants, Cheng Fangyuan even tensed up his spine.
With a biological mother like Queen Shen, not to mention that King Qin was not weak in health, even if King Qin was terminally ill, Queen Shen would not leave the throne to the fourth prince.
It's a pity that His Majesty is still somewhat capable of conquering the world and winning the throne. But in terms of housework, he still lacks some skills and lacks brains.
If you have enough brains, Your Majesty should make King Qin the crown prince. This will first reassure the ministers and Empress Shen, and make Concubine Zhou fearful.
Fortunately, everyone in the world knows that Your Majesty does not like the third prince. Not only did he not establish a crown prince, he suppressed the King of Qin everywhere.
It would have been nice if we really suppressed him, but unfortunately His Majesty is hesitant, thinking about his old love while coveting his new love.
It's like building a single-plank bridge on a fast-flowing river. You want to balance both ends, but you stand in the middle and wander left and right. In the end, you fall over and fall into the water, with no bones left.
