Although the calligrapher is prominent, she cannot marry King Ming based on her family alone.
She relies on the Queen Mother all the time
What would she do without the Queen Mother's help?
The Queen Mother said that even if Mu Ranran married her, she would find a way to make herself the princess, then...
Mu Yiyi's life experience is not as good as Mu Ranran's, so there should be no problem, right?
"My... mother, his attitude towards that woman is different."
Shu Qianrou was crying, and she was extremely worried.
If King Ming doesn't like it, the Queen Mother can do it.
But, what if it’s someone that King Ming likes?
Does the Queen Mother dare? Can she?
A woman's intuition is always very accurate. Now she regrets it to death. She should have been the one who was happy at that time.
"You think too much, Prince Ming won't like her."
Mrs. Shu was caressing her daughter tenderly, feeling very bitter in her heart.
She once told her many times not to look at King Ming all the time.
That man won't be easily tempted, but my daughter won't listen.
But now, she could also see that King Ming looked at Mu Yiyi differently, but...
She couldn't tell her daughter.
"Really?"
Shu Qianrou asked uneasily, as if she wanted to confirm something.
"real."
"Then, I'll go find Wu Yinglan. Does she know that Mu Yiyi is married to King Ming?"
That's her best sister, won't she also change her mind?
"Okay, let's go."
Mrs. Shu secretly thought, as long as you don't make trouble here.
It's really a headache to have such a stubborn daughter, but she still doesn't dare to take care of her.
…
"Your Majesty, the inventory has been completed."
When Eunuch Bao came back, his face was dark, and everyone looked over.
But I saw him taking out two lists, one was the dowry list and the other was the actual list.
Eunuch Bao said angrily:
"Mu Shangshu is really a good tactic. Are you bullying our ignorant family?"
He shook the sheet angrily and said coldly:
"I won't talk about the dowry list, but it's estimated to be around 80,000 yuan, which is quite generous."
Everyone gasped when they heard the price of 80,000. The Shangshu Mansion was indeed rich.
Many people looked at Mu Shangshu with disdain. Everyone understood how the money came from.
"As for the actual list, apart from fakes, they are defective products, less than 8,000 taels."
Hiss, this wave of operations is fierce.
This time, not to mention everyone present, even Du Yushi and his in-laws were too embarrassed to continue watching.
If you don't, you can write less. No one will laugh at you. It's a bit too much to use all fake ones.
"Mu Zhan, please explain it to me."
The emperor was also so angry that he shouted Mu Shangshu's name.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Old Minister, Old Minister..."
Mu Shangshu's face turned pale. He wanted to make excuses, but he couldn't.
He didn't dare to tell lies. He knew that his palace was already under surveillance by the emperor. If he made it up, the emperor would be able to find witnesses immediately!
He felt his eyes go dark, and he was so anxious that he fainted with a thud.
Fortunately, he fainted. Mu Shangshu's last conscious thought was to secretly rejoice.
"Your Majesty, please atone for your sins..."
Just when Mu Shangshu fainted, a woman ran over quickly.
Maybe she was too impatient, the woman's delicate face was covered with sweat, her face was pale, and her voice was urgent:
"Your Majesty, the second sister's dowry was normal yesterday. My daughter and my father went over to check it in person, but..."
Mu Ranran burst into tears as she spoke. The pear blossoms looked like rain, making people want to hold her in their arms and comfort her!
Seeing the beautiful woman weeping, it was so miserable that no one urged her to do it, and they had a little more patience.
"But... just after the second sister got married, I suddenly received news that... everything in the warehouse of Shangshu Mansion was lost..."
Well, this, everyone looked surprised.
Is it such a coincidence? This is simply too much of a coincidence.
Princess Ming's dowry was stolen, and the storeroom of Shangshu Mansion was stolen.
I have to say that Shangshu Mansion is really wonderful.
"Oh, everything is lost?"
The emperor said playfully, his eyes a little... deep.
At this time, the imperial physician at the scene had already revived Mu Shangshu.
He was still paralyzed on the ground. Although he was unconscious just now, he could hear clearly what was said outside.
He was secretly proud that he was still smart.
The storerooms of the Shangshu Mansion were stolen. What does the dowry being stolen have to do with him?
But Ran Ran is also smart and came up with such a perfect method so quickly.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Mu Ranran said sadly, and cried even more sadly.
"Your Majesty, I failed to take good care of Yiyi's dowry. I deserve to die."
A dignified, seven-foot-tall man who held a high position actually cried in public, and everyone was a little shocked.
"Is that really unexpected? Since the Shangshu Mansion has been stolen, let Jing Zhaoyin go and investigate."
The emperor obviously spared Mu Shangshu, so naturally no one dared to protest at this time.
"However, no matter what happens to the Shangshu Mansion, since Princess Ming has nothing to do with the Shangshu Mansion, her dowry will naturally be indispensable."
Everyone originally thought that the dowry matter was over, but what the emperor said next made everyone shocked again.
"Old Mu, you'd better replenish it as soon as possible. If it's hard to find something, just exchange it for silver."
The emperor looked at Mu Shangshu thoughtfully, and his expression improved a lot:
"Didn't I just say it's worth eighty-nine thousand taels? Let's round up the whole number and just calculate it as one hundred thousand taels. Old Mu, is it okay to make up for it tomorrow?"
puff……
Is there such a complete package? And it will be given tomorrow?
Your Majesty, this is not a question, it is simply a direct order.
"Your Majesty, something was stolen from the old minister's house..."
Mu Shangshu protested weakly. He actually wanted to reject it, but the emperor definitely disagreed.
He wanted to give less, but he didn't dare to say so.
If it was really 100,000 taels, why was he busy changing things in the middle of the night yesterday?
Wouldn't it be easier to just leave Mu Yiyi's dowry alone?
"Theft? What's that? Lao Mu, don't tell me that all your good things are in the warehouse? Besides, don't you still have in-laws?"
The emperor's eyes looked at Du Yushi, who was so frightened that he quickly lowered his head.
How come the dowry of Mu Shangshu's daughter has something to do with him?
This is a completely unreasonable disaster.
"This... is good, I will definitely deliver it tomorrow."
Seeing that Mu Shangshu finally agreed, the emperor nodded with satisfaction and his voice became much more cheerful.
The queen secretly pulled his clothes, and the emperor nodded to her and said loudly:
"Now that the dowry matter has been settled, let me talk about the betrothal gift."
The emperor cleared his throat and continued:
"Prince Ming's wedding is a special situation, and many etiquettes are not well prepared. However, although the time is a bit tight, I and the queen both recognize Mu Yiyi as the princess, so the betrothal gift cannot be missing."
"It's just that I don't have time to prepare, so I'll convert it into cash. One million taels, Yiyi girl, how do you feel?"
