Robbery?

Marquis Zhongyong was stunned for a moment, and then he stroked his thick black beard. It seemed like this. If he didn't like robbery, how could he be a good bandit?

My son was saved from a robbery. This hobby is good and unique.

"Besides robbing, what other hobbies do you have?" asked Zhongyong Hou.

"Well..." Liang Cheng thought for a long time before replying: "That should be a fat sheep."

Mu Hanqing, who was eating, rolled his eyes. The metaphor was really appropriate. It seemed that every time he saw Zhao Fuling, he was either robbing him or running over to rob him.

Fat sheep is a metaphor for the person who was robbed. He was rich, but in the end he still liked the robbery, but he only hit the fat sheep.

"And the Marquis." Liang Cheng said cautiously: "The county master's maid feels that ten taels of silver is too little."

Too little... Marquis Zhongyong thought for a while and continued to eat.

He quickly finished the rest of the meal, wiped his beard, and said in a deep voice: "After all, he is the head of the county. Too little will damage the reputation of our Marquis Mansion. From now on, I will give you twenty taels each time."

Suddenly, Liang Cheng was stunned.

"Cough cough cough..." Mu Hanqing choked.

How can there be such a thing? The robber thinks the money is too little, and the person who is robbed takes the initiative to increase the amount.

"Yes, Lord Marquis." Liang Cheng bowed his hands slightly and saluted. Although he felt a little distressed, this time the prince escaped from the disaster thanks to Zhao Fuling. If the prince died, don't say twenty taels, even if it was twenty thousand taels.

, and not regretful enough.

Look at now, the prince is eating well here. The food is as delicious as the royal chef in the palace. There are people from Black Tiger Village guarding the courtyard inside and outside, which is safer than the Hou Mansion. So twenty taels is really not expensive and worth it.

of!

After dinner, Marquis Zhongyong unexpectedly wanted to stay here, and had already ordered people to bring the court clothes and other necessary things for tomorrow.

Because there are many birthday gifts for the Queen Mother, they have already been transported to the palace. Tomorrow, all you need to do is submit the copied gift list. Nowhere is as safe as here now, and people are watching inside and outside.

"Master Hou~" A brocade box was brought by his subordinates.

When you open it, you will find a ruby ​​headband. Dozens of gemstones as small as grains of rice are inlaid into patterns of pomegranates and pomegranate flowers. Even in the house, they still shine brightly.

Marquis Zhongyong picked it up and looked at it, then closed the box and said, "Send it to the Lord of Yong'an County!"

"Dad~" Mu Hanqing was shocked: "This is my mother's dowry!"

At that time, when Mrs. Zhongyonghou got married, it could be said that she had a lot of red dowry. However, Mrs. Zhongyonghou came from a scholarly family, and most of her dowry was calligraphy and painting. There were also jewelry in the dowry. The first one to bear the brunt was the pomegranate and ruby ​​headdress given by the Queen Mother. The pomegranate symbolizes fertility.

What a blessing, there are so many exquisite heads and faces in the entire capital.

During the last engagement, he still gave the hosta that the Queen Mother used to add makeup to, and this time he gave the hairpin as a gift. Did Marquis Zhongyong really intend for him to marry this female bandit?

Zhongyong Hou waved his hand and asked someone to send it as soon as possible, and then said to Mu Hanqing: "Qing'er, if your mother was here, she would definitely agree to this marriage. Sooner or later, these will be hers. Since she likes money, she will

If you send it earlier, she will be more attentive to you and protect you better."

"You don't need protection!" Mu Hanqing spat out the words in anger, and felt like he had slapped himself in the face. Since he didn't need protection, why was Mao still in his mansion now?

"Childish." Marquis Zhongyong smiled bitterly: "You have high vision. This father knows that he used to pamper you to the point where you were a grown-up and have not yet been engaged. If you get married early and let me have grandchildren, those people will not

I just keep an eye on you and have concerns."

Without a son, there is still a grandson. For the sake of his grandson, Zhongyong Hou will hold on no matter what, even if he vomits blood, he will not be depressed, and it is impossible for him to die.

Marquis Zhongyong consoled her with sincerity: "Although the Lord of Yong'an County is a little greedy for money, his heart is not bad. Black Tiger Village has always only sought wealth, not life. If you think about it, she robs whenever she wants, keeping everything in plain sight."

I don’t know how much better than those poisonous women in the back house who are kind-faced but evil-hearted, I can rest assured that I can leave the entire Marquis Mansion in her hands."

Sure enough, I still want him to marry Zhao Fuling. I really don't know what is so good about this female bandit. Her own father is almost possessed. No, when entering the palace this time, I must tell His Majesty not to grant a marriage.

At this time, the person who gave the jewelry came back, and the head of Yong'an County accepted it, saying that he would keep it for future generations. If the prince gets married one day, he will definitely give it to the prince's wife.

Mu Hanqing snorted coldly: "She is wise, but I remember this. If you don't return it in the future, I will definitely ask for it."

Marquis Zhongyong sighed, it seemed that she knew that her son didn't like her, and saw that her appearance was not ordinary, so she said such words.

Even though she knew that she might not achieve enlightenment, she still protected her and saved her from fire and water a second time. However, her son didn't like her. When will he understand that Zhao Fuling is rare even if she doesn't have that level of identity?

On the second day, it was the Queen Mother's fiftieth birthday. Her Majesty held a banquet and hundreds of officials came to the court to congratulate her.

Early in the morning, Zhongyong Hou and Mu Hanqing ate a small amount of porridge and rice.

It's not because there is a birthday banquet in the palace, and there will be delicious food and drinks, but the food list is also because I am afraid of being missed.

After you were properly dressed, someone came to report that the carriage and horses were ready.

When they were almost at the gate, Zhao Fuling also happened to arrive from her small courtyard.

Today, Zhao Fuling is wearing the county lord's court uniform. In this dynasty, regardless of men or women, all those who have been awarded official positions and titles have court uniforms.

The court clothes are almost the same. Qingluo embroiders Zhai's long-sleeved Zhai clothes and wears a flower hairpin crown. The number of Zhai (long-tailed chicks) embroidered varies depending on the grade. The hairpins on the flower crown on the head are fixed at different levels. This avoids

Comparing each other because of the way they dress.

I saw that his eyebrows were like distant mountains, unkempt and dark, and his eyes were like bright stars, big and bright. His skin seemed to be much whiter, with a little powder applied and a thin layer of vermilion, making his face slightly red.

Mu Hanqing was a little dazed when he suddenly saw a different Zhao Fuling. Is this still a female bandit holding a riding crop and shouting for robbery?

"Hello, Lord Marquis, hello, Prince." Because they were of equal rank, Zhao Fuling just bowed slightly and saluted.

"Your Majesty, Yong'an County, is very polite." Marquis Zhongyong bowed and saluted.

Mu Hanqing quickly followed suit and saluted as a return gesture.

Seeing Zhao Fuling slowly getting into the car with the help of the maid on the side, Mu Hanqing never left his eyes. When he got on the horse, Mu Hanqing still couldn't believe that this woman who looked like a lady to everyone was actually

Female bandit.

Marquis Zhongyong was riding a horse nearby, rolling his eyes. You regret it, boy. If you really reject this marriage, you will regret it in the future. I guarantee that you will even turn green in your intestines.

Although it was early in the morning, there were already many ox carts and military attachés and princes on horseback, heading towards the palace on the street.

Sometimes those noble ladies would quietly lift the car curtains and take a peek at the noble gentlemen.
