Chapter 1551: There are bound to be pitfalls in catching a son-in-law under the ranking (31)
Mu Zhen really tried his best to increase Jin Qing's favorability, and the banknotes were thrown at Jin Qing like a storm.
However, Mu Zhen soon discovered that it was becoming increasingly difficult to increase Jin Qing's favorability!
Previously, a hundred taels of silver notes could "increase a certain amount" in Jin Qing's favorability.
But now 10,000 taels of silver notes can make Jin Qing's favorability "increase a little bit".
The problem is that until now, Jin Qing's favorability has not shown a specific value, which made Mu Zhen and the whole system panic.
Because Jin Qing's favorability seems to have no lower limit, but Mu Zhen's funds are limited.
Finally, the powerful minister system became cruel and ordered Mu Zhen, "Invite that woman out and give her all the banknotes and land deeds you have in your hand."
Mu Zhen was stunned, "Why, why!" Although he had the demeanor of a famous teacher who looked down upon money and dirt, he also knew how useful money is.
If he didn't have this money at his side, he wouldn't have lived so freely these years.
Sensing Mu Zhen's resistance, the powerful ministers snorted in their hearts, but continued to explain to Mu Zhen, "When you become emperor, you won't get as much money as you want. You should take a long-term view and don't get too old."
He looks like a philistine who is poor and miserable."
When he heard the words "philistine and poor," Mu Zhen immediately jumped up like a mouse whose tail had been stepped on.
These words were often heard in his early years before he met the Shen family. Even after he married Shen Runing, everyone would often mention these words.
It's as if he voluntarily became the son-in-law of the Shen family because he was greedy for the Shen family's wealth.
It wasn't until he got married to Xinyue that no one dared to talk to him again.
Therefore, Mu Zhen's feelings for Shen Runing and Xinyue are completely different.
Shen Runing brought him humiliation, but Xinyue gave him glory.
In any case, the powerful minister system has stepped on Mu Zhen's painful foot.
In order to prove that he is not a poor man, but a famous official who regards money as dirt.
Mu Zhen simply revealed all his wealth, intending to completely increase Jin Qing's favorability.
Mu Zhen also figured out that as long as he could take away Jin Qing's luck, he would not be able to get as much money as he wanted in the future.
When the boy guarding the door saw Mu Zhen carrying a huge box out of the door, he immediately turned around and ran to report to Xinyue.
These days, Mu Zhen often delivers things to the Prince's Mansion, which has long attracted Xinyue's attention.
But Mu Zhen has been recuperating at home, and Xinyue doesn't want to argue with him.
Now seeing Mu Zhen going out and delivering a message to the Prince's Mansion before leaving, Xinyue immediately ordered someone to prepare a carriage. She was going to Prince Ning's Mansion to discuss the matter with her father.
For some reason, Xinyue always felt that after she got married, her sensitivity to the situation began to drop significantly, and things that were easy to see clearly before became chaotic.
But she has a good habit. When she encounters a problem that she doesn't understand, she will first share her anger with Prince Ning, who will analyze it with her.
The two carriages drove out of Mu's Mansion one after another, speeding away in two different directions.
In the palace, the queen frowned and looked at the chief steward, "Why are you sending me some tonics again? I said my health is already well, but the officials like to bother."
Although the words sounded like complaints, the Queen's tone of voice was more like coquettishness.
The chief steward respectfully replied to the queen, "The officials are also concerned about your health. These medicines are new tributes from various countries. They are all for strengthening the body."
It is not easy for others to see good things even if they want to. Knowing that you suffered a loss when you gave birth to the Crown Prince, whenever these good things are brought to the palace, they are sent to you first. This is the first one in the palace.
No matter how many people ask for it, I still can’t get it!”
The queen's face turned slightly red when the chief steward said, "Okay, you talk too much, I just drank it."
She pinched her nose and drank the medicine. A thin layer of sweat broke out on the Queen's forehead. She pushed away the candied fruit that her grandma had brought and said to her, "I'm already full of this medicine. Why don't you give it to me again?"
Stuff something."
The chief steward pretended not to see the queen blaming her mother, and stepped forward to put the empty bowl away.
But I heard the queen's words that sounded like she was resentful, "How long will it take to drink this time?"
A smile appeared on the chief manager's face: "Autumn has just begun, and the director of Taiyuan Hospital is saying that one month is just the right time."
After hearing that these medicines had to be taken for a month, the queen waved her hand to the chief steward, "Okay, okay, go down quickly. You can also talk to the hospital about whether you can give me some pills. This big bowl of medicine
I’m extremely sad. After taking this month’s tonic, I’m afraid I’ll become a fat man.”
The chief manager smiled and said yes, then left with the medicine bowl.
Before leaving the house, the chief steward tried the color on a maid dressed as a palace maid in the palace, and then left in a hurry.
Seeing the chief steward walking out, the queen lazily told the people waiting in the palace, "I am tired and want to take a nap."
Several palace maids quickly helped the queen lie down.
The eldest maid who had gotten the attention of the chief steward before personally stepped forward to help the queen lie down, and when no one saw her, she quietly placed a silk handkerchief on the queen's mouth.
After doing all this, the eldest maid turned around and lowered the bed curtain, instructing the two serving maids not to disturb the queen's rest, and then hurriedly left the queen's palace.
The eldest maid walked to the corridor and happened to see the eldest steward waiting there in the distance.
Seeing someone approaching him, the chief manager asked in a low voice, "You didn't vomit, did you?"
The eldest maid shook her head and said softly, "No, I put her to bed myself."
The chief manager nodded and said, "Go back and take care of me."
Then, the two people separated in a hurry.
Feeling the silence around her, the queen slowly opened her eyes.
Her body was lying on her side at this time. The queen remained motionless and tried her best to spit out all the tonic she drank in her stomach.
This medicine is indeed a good medicine, and the contents inside are indeed rare and good things.
But there is a word in this world called lack of replenishment.
If she drinks too much of this tonic, she may look healthy on the outside, but in fact it will increase the burden on her organs, overdraw her vitality, and make her organs dilapidated.
The emperor's hands are not poisonous.
The prince is sixteen years old this year. Ever since the prince was born, the emperor has sent this tonic every year in the name of her postpartum weakness.
It seemed like he cared about her body, but in fact he just wanted to make up for her death.
If her outstanding eldest son hadn't suddenly died suddenly, she wouldn't have become suspicious of the emperor, and then discovered the emperor's evil intentions.
Thinking of her innocence and simplicity, who loved the emperor wholeheartedly, the queen sneered in her heart: "Why didn't this man suffer retribution?"
Fortunately, she had gathered the eldest palace maid, but she didn't know how many hidden dangers there were in the palace, so she had to be careful and never let the emperor know that she was on guard, otherwise the prince would be in danger.
