To put it bluntly, even if I were to marry a maid from the prime minister's house, these three betrothal gifts would be too shabby. Not to mention such a small box...
Prime Minister Mu Weiren's face was extremely ugly.
Although he, the prime minister, has been in office for three years, there are still many people who do not agree with him.
Prince Chen's Mansion is one of them.
Other officials, or members of the family, all showed their intention to win over him when he took office, and there were daily favors.
But Prince Chen's Mansion completely turned a blind eye to him as the Prime Minister and ignored him!
Mu Weiren took a deep breath and sneered at the person who sent the betrothal gift from Prince Chen's Mansion, "Did His Highness Prince Chen agree to send these betrothal gifts?"
The leader was none other than King Chen's personal guard, Dong Bai.
"Yes. These are all the sincerity of His Highness King Chen."
"Sincerity?" Mu Weiren sneered, "I really can't bear the sincerity of His Highness Chen Wang! This small amount of betrothal gift, let alone marrying the legitimate daughter of my prime minister's house, even marrying a girl in charge, is not enough.
Maybe! I don't care about face, but I can't bear to let my legitimate daughter suffer. Please take these betrothal gifts back. I want to report it to the emperor. So what if His Highness King Chen is a relative of the emperor? You can't do it at will.
Ruined my daughter!"
Mu Weiren is full of majesty.
Immediately, the surrounding crowd applauded.
Yes, the betrothal gift is very important to a woman. The amount of the betrothal gift directly measures your status in the eyes of your future husband.
The person who is willing to use one tael of silver as a betrothal gift to marry you is definitely different from the person who is willing to use ten thousand taels of gold as a betrothal gift to marry you.
If Mu Weiren really agreed to marry the second daughter of Prince Chen's palace with such a small betrothal gift, then in the eyes of everyone, he would definitely be eager to throw his daughter out without caring about her life or death.
He who is despised by thousands of people!
What's more, Mu Jinshi also had a maternal family, the Xiao family.
Although no one from the Xiao family is an official in the court now, the Xiao family is a literati, and the power of connections they control cannot be underestimated.
Normally, because Mu Jinshi is the daughter of the Mu family, it doesn't matter how he, the father, disciplines him, but if something big like this really happens and goes too far, the Xiao family will definitely not sit idly by and watch!
Therefore, even if Mu Weiren really wants to throw Mu Jinshi away quickly, he must put on a show!
You must put on a show for the world to see. Hypocrites, of course, must not reveal their flaws casually.
However, all this did not affect Dongbaek who came to deliver the betrothal gift.
He still looked at Mu Weiren with an indifferent expression, "Mr. Prime Minister, are you sure?"
"Hmph, there is no need to think about it. Although the daughter in her true form is not as good as the princess and princess, she is not a fool either."
Dong Bai smiled slowly and looked at Mu Jin again, "Miss Mu Er, do you also agree with the Prime Minister's statement?"
Before Mu Jinshi could say anything, Mu Weiren sneered again, "Of course. How could I ever put my daughter in the eyes of such a small betrothal gift? No need to say more, the truth will be reported to the emperor!"
Dongbai nodded, "In that case, let's go back."
"Huh, that's too much!" Mu Weiren looked angry.
"etc."
At this moment, Mu Jinshi spoke softly.
Dongbai stopped and looked back, "Second Miss?"
"I haven't spoken yet, why do I have to leave?"
"It's Dongbaek's fault. Although the prime minister is the prime minister, he is not the second young lady. Naturally, he cannot make decisions for the second young lady!"
