"I don't plan on what to do, I just want to ask His Highness the King of Qing." Feng Qingzhuang's face was plain and smooth, with bottomless black pupils. She looked at Shangguan Xuanqing faintly and saw him nodding. Feng Qingzhuang had light makeup.
Ru Shui's voice sounded in the hall, "Your Highness, Prince Qing, when I was at Prince Qing's Mansion, did I ever force you to ask for these 50,000 taels of gold?"
Shangguan Xuanqing shook his head and said: "No."
"Your Majesty, have you heard clearly that I did not force His Highness the King of Qing to give me fifty thousand taels of gold? Everything was done voluntarily by His Highness the King of Qing." Feng Qingzhuang's eyes moved and she looked at Shangguan Xuancheng, her voice as clear as water.
Passed by everyone's ears
"I heard that you and the emperor's brother have been engaged since childhood. The emperor's brother is so generous and gives you such a large sum of gold. He must want to give it to you as a betrothal gift. Since you have accepted it, it means that the two of you are in love. Today
It just so happens that you two are here, I will accomplish a good thing, and the next decree will be for you two to get married with Feng Qingzhuang. What do you think? You must know that I am a man of words. Once the decree is given, there is no reason to take it back." Shangguan Xuancheng Jianmei
She raised her eyebrows lightly, with deep black pupils with an intimidating light, and looked at Feng Qingzhuang, with a strong threat in her words.
"Brother Imperial..." Shangguan Xuanqing stood up with a gloomy expression. Just as he was about to speak, Shangguan Xuancheng glanced at him with a sharp and domineering look. He sighed in his heart, sat down helplessly, took a sip of tea, and remained silent.
In the hall, after hearing these words, Feng Qingzhuang turned livid with anger, clenched her hands into fists, and secretly thought, everyone in the royal family is really shameless, knowing full well that Shangguan Xuanqing returned the token and the marriage was canceled that day, this dog emperor,
She actually had the nerve to bring it out, but Feng Qingzhuang also knew that if she didn't agree to return the 50,000 taels of gold today, Shangguan Xuancheng would definitely not let her go easily. When the imperial decree comes, I'm afraid she will really get married.
Entered the palace of the Qing Dynasty
"I, Feng Qingzhuang, don't care about a mere fifty thousand taels of gold. Give me three days and I will return the fifty thousand taels of gold to the Qing Palace without any loss." Feng Qingzhuang raised her head and said deeply.
The black pupils are covered with thin frost, and the cold voice is like winter ice, with a hint of cold air.
"Okay! If the emperor's brother has not received the gold after three days, then my imperial edict of marriage will be sent to the Prime Minister's Mansion." Shangguan Xuancheng smiled half-smilingly, but his eyes were cold, majestic and domineering, and his voice did not allow for negotiation.
in the hall
After saying this, Shangguan Xuancheng stood up and left the Prime Minister's Mansion in a hurry. Shangguan Xuanqing followed behind. When he passed by Feng Qingzhuang, Feng Qingzhuang glanced at her with dim eyes, moved his lips, and never made a sound.
walked out
In the front hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, after Shangguan Xuancheng and Shangguan Xuanqing left, the atmosphere was still oppressive.
"Qingzhuang, why did you ask for 50,000 taels of gold from the King of Qing? What's going on?" Feng Chenxiang stood up and looked at the bold and unfamiliar daughter in front of him. Not only did he contradict the emperor, but he also asked the prince for money.
It was the first time that he had acquired such a large amount of gold. He looked at his daughter seriously and asked seriously
"My daughter is just unwilling to be divorced by him, so she did such a reckless thing. Don't worry, dad, I will send the gold back to the Qing Palace in three days." Feng Qingzhuang made up a reason casually.
"Why do you have to wait three days? Have you already spent the gold?" Feng Chenxiang asked nervously.
"I just used a little bit. Don't worry, dad. My daughter will find a way to fill it in." Feng Qing's face with bright make-up revealed a reassuring smile.
"How can you think of ways to fill in your daughter's family? To be honest, how much did it cost? Dad will come up with something for you?" Feng Chen said with concern.
Feng Qingzhuang felt warm in her heart, and her voice became a little softer, "Dad, you really don't need help, my daughter has her own way."
"Qingzhuang, dad has been indifferent to you all these years, which has caused you to suffer a lot. Dad feels very guilty. Let dad help you with what happened today, so that dad will feel better." Feng
The prime minister raised his sleeves and wiped the corners of his eyes, and said with tears streaming down his face.
At this time, Feng Qingzhuang was really at her wits end. The old father even used his family tactics. She surrendered completely and no longer persisted.
"Actually, it's not a lot. The five hundred taels used by my second aunt before plus the ones my daughter used for the past two days add up to a total of only one thousand taels of gold."
"Fortunately, our prime minister's office can still get these one thousand taels of gold. After a while, dad will ask Manager Qin to go to the warehouse to pay you one thousand taels of gold. However, dad still has a question in his mind. How can I have to deal with you on this matter?
Are you involved again?" A trace of doubt flashed in Feng Chenxiang's eyes and he asked
"A few days ago, Er Niang said that the Queen Mother's birthday was coming, and she wanted to buy some beautiful clothes and jewelry for her third sister, but she couldn't come up with the money, so my daughter generously gave Er Niang several hundred taels of gold and flowers." Feng Qingzhuang didn't want to
He told the facts and then flattered him casually.
"Speaking of the birthday of the Queen Mother, as the legitimate daughter of the Chancellor's Palace, you are also going to the palace to attend the birthday. If you want to buy anything, go and buy it quickly. The money will be paid in the treasury."
"Humph" Feng Qingzhuang responded lightly.
In the hall, the father and daughter talked for a while, then Feng Qingzhuang left and led Cui'er back to Piaoxue Pavilion.
She just sat down and took a sip of tea. Sixth Auntie was wearing a light blue dress, with a woman's hair in a bun, and a jade hairpin inserted sideways. Looking from a distance, she looked elegant and fresh. She led Qin Zhong over in a hurry and entered the door.
Qin Zhong's knees weakened and he knelt in front of Feng Qingzhuang, admitting his mistake.
"What's going on?" Feng Qingzhuang put down her teacup, frowned and asked in a cold voice. Cui'er stood behind her and squeezed her shoulders.
"Back to the Second Miss, the Prime Minister just ordered Manager Qin to go to the warehouse to pay you one thousand taels of gold. However, after I looked at the account book, I found that the income and expenses of the Prime Minister's Mansion have been the same over the past few years, and there is no way to pay for it.
"I asked for the one thousand taels of gold, so I brought General Manager Qin over." Liu Yiniang said steadily without any trace of panic in her dark almond-shaped eyes.
"Mr. Qin, what is going on?" Feng Qingzhuang's eyes flickered, her sharp gaze shot at Qin Zhong like a February ice blade, and she asked in a cold voice with the chill of spring.
"These accounts have always been looked after by the second lady, and I don't know," Qin Zhong replied tremblingly, his body shaking like chaff.
"You know how to push it. Now these two ladies have gone crazy. Who do you want me to ask?" Feng Qingzhuang glared, her voice suddenly dropped, and there seemed to be gusts of cold wind blowing in the room, which frightened her.
Qin Zhong's body trembled again.
"Second Miss, this old slave really doesn't know that the second lady only gave the old slave double wages in the past, but never let the old slave interfere with the account book." Qin Zhong's eyes were full of fear, and he confessed honestly.
"I'm sorry you don't dare to lie, go down." Feng Qingzhuang waved her hand, but she was thinking in her mind. Now that 'Knowing World Affairs' has just started, and she has no income, where can she make up the one thousand taels in three days?
