Xiao Xixi held the jade pendant in her hand and came to Leng Moran's study in a happy mood.
"Your Majesty, I came to you to exchange money."
Neither Cui Qi nor Feng Yan knew about this. They were surprised to see Xiao Xixi holding the tiger-print jade pendant that his prince never left his body.
Leng Moran looked normal and asked Cui Qi to take out 20,000 taels of silver notes and give them to Xiao Xixi.
Cui Qi suspected that he heard wrongly and asked again: "Your Majesty, are you sure it is twenty thousand taels?"
Before Leng Moran could answer, Feng Yan patted him and urged: "Go quickly, it's only twenty thousand taels."
Although Feng Yan didn't know why the prince gave the princess so much money, they were a family after all, so it didn't matter if they gave her some money.
Besides, their prince is not short of money either.
Leng Moran, who heard all his mental activities: "..."
Even though he thought so, Cui Qi still felt uncertain.
Cui Qi stepped aside, walked to the inner room, opened the box and took out the banknotes. His hands were still shaking when he handed them to Xiao Xixi.
Xiao Xixi took the money and looked at Cui Qi in surprise: "Eunuch Cui's hands are shaking a little. Is he feeling unwell? Or should he ask the government doctor to take a look?"
Cui Qi was flattered and said hurriedly: "I'm sorry to bother you, Princess, but I'm fine with you."
Xiao Xixi nodded. After all, he was not her subordinate, so she couldn't interfere too much.
She turned to look at Leng Moran and showed a bright smile: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the banknote. If you want to bet in the future, just come to me!"
Leng Mo Ran raised his eyebrows slightly and asked: "The Xiao family should have never deducted your monthly payment. Your dowry is also the largest in the capital in ten years. How can you be so happy after getting 20,000 taels?"
Xiao Xixi blinked and looked at him with doubtful eyes: "Who would think that the money is too much?"
"Do you like making money that much?"
Xiao Xixi nodded vigorously and said: "Yes, I especially like making money. This kind of happiness cannot be replaced by other things. So if the prince wants to bet, he must remember to find me."
After being here for so long, she has yet to find a way to make money that is more profitable than betting with Leng Moran.
Leng Moran: Did the co-author regard him as an easy target?
However, Leng Moran didn't intend to be acquainted with her. It was better to show his love for money so simply and straightforwardly than to hide it.
"I know, please go back first."
"Then the prince continues to be busy, I will take my leave first."
Xiao Xixi happily returned to Qingfengyuan with the banknote.
…
Qingfengyuan.
Qiong Yu was anxiously ordering people to pack their luggage.
Seeing Xiao Xixi coming back, she quickly chased after her to ask what she needed to pack, where she was going, how long she would be going, and who of the maids would be following her.
You must know that just now Xiao Xixi told her to leave Beijing for a while and asked her to pack her things, but did not elaborate on anything else.
When Qiong Yu wanted to ask again, she found that Xiao Xixi had disappeared, and that girl Ji Yue was squatting in the corner, chewing peaches stupidly, and she didn't know what to ask.
Xiao Xixi was stunned when she was asked, she didn't know this either.
Thinking of Leng Moran saying that it would take anywhere from half a year to several years, and with the intention of tricking Leng Moran, Xiao Xixi ordered: "Bring more things, so that the prince will not be wronged on the road. Anyway, there are many carriages in the palace."
Qiong Yu asked: "Do the slaves want to follow?"
Xiao Xixi thought for a while, the emperor probably wanted them to keep a low profile, and it would be better not to bring too many people.
"Jiyue will follow, you stay at home."
"yes."
After Qiong Yu's explanation, Xiao Xixi found Zong Mengtao, Yi Hui and Aunt Qi.
"Your Majesty and I are going out for a while, and the return date is uncertain, so I will leave it to you to handle the matter."
The hunting time before was short, and nothing went wrong at home. They were worried that if the time went on, the three of them would have conflicts again, so they explained it again.
"Concubine Zong, Yi Hui and Nanny Qi have been at the house for a long time and are very good at handling trivial matters. If you don't understand something, listen to their opinions."
Of course Zong Mengtao understood what Xiao Xixi meant and immediately said: "Don't worry, Princess, I understand everything."
Yihui lowered her head, held the handkerchief tightly, and summoned up the courage to ask: "Princess, do you need Yihui to accompany you when you go out?"
Xiao Xixi shook her head and said: "No need, where can I stay at home comfortably when I'm away from home?"
"Yi Hui wants to share the worries of the prince and princess."
Xiao Xixi didn't understand the meaning of her words and said with a smile: "If you can help with the general affairs in the house, you are already helping me share my worries."
Thinking that Yi Hui was unusual in Leng Moran's mind, Xiao Xixi added: "But who can go has to ask the prince."
Yihui just nodded and said nothing more.
After leaving Xiao Xixi's place, Yi Hui went to see Leng Moran.
She asked: "I heard from the princess that the prince is leaving Beijing?"
Leng Moran hummed softly: "You and the concubine of the clan will take good care of the female family members in the back house, and don't let them cause trouble. If there is something that even Aunt Qi can't handle, go to Cui Qi and Manager Qin to discuss it.
.”
Yi Hui's heart sank, she held the handkerchief tightly with both hands and asked, "Your Majesty, don't you need Yi Hui to come and help?"
Leng Moran looked at her and saw that she lowered her head slightly, unable to hear what she was thinking.
But he never doubted that Yihui would have any dissatisfaction with him.
"No, it's dangerous outside, you'd better stay at home."
"Yihui knows martial arts and can protect herself."
Leng Moran raised his hand and patted her shoulder lightly, making Yi Hui tremble in shock. Only then did he realize that Yi Hui is a woman and he cannot really regard her as a brother.
He took back his hand and coughed lightly: "Your safety is also very important, otherwise how can I deal with Qi Shu?"
Only then did Yi Hui stop insisting: "Yi Hui understands and will definitely help the prince and princess manage the palace."
Leng Moran nodded: "I feel reassured by your work."
However, Yihui did not feel happy because of being praised, but instead felt even more depressed.
…
Before leaving, Emperor Honghui summoned Leng Moran alone and told him some things that needed attention.
"Those remnants of Dayin are all desperadoes. If you encounter danger, you must not fight with them. Your safety is also very important."
"Your Majesty, don't worry, my nephew understands."
Emperor Honghui frowned. His mood was very contradictory. On the one hand, he wanted to train his nephew and let him share his worries.
On the other hand, he was worried that if something happened to Leng Moran outside, he would not be able to give an explanation to his brother and sister-in-law in a hundred years.
Leng Moran saw Emperor Honghui's mood and advised: "Your Majesty, don't worry about your nephew. My nephew will definitely not let him hurt a hair."
Of course Emperor Honghui believed in his strength, but he still said: "I will send another team of secret guards to go with you to protect your safety."
What an honor it was to be protected by the secret guards around the emperor. Leng Moran was flattered and thanked him.
"Your Majesty, there is something that my nephew has not yet had time to report to you."
