Five hundred and ninetieth chapters protect their man
Taking Bai Cao's reaction as pregnancy syndrome, Bai Ling spent more time with Bai Cao, but did not take her worries to heart.
This time, Princess Yayang and her party followed the official path, so the possibility of problems was extremely low.
In order to help Shangguan Yu recover from his injuries as soon as possible, Bai Ling would occasionally take him into the space and use spiritual spring water to treat him.
It was not convenient for Bai Ling to do this in the King of Han Dynasty, but every day when cooking in the King of Han's Mansion, Bai Ling would use Lingquan water and put some in their water tank, which could also speed up recovery.
In the quiet days, the day of Princess Miya's marriage is getting closer and closer. Except for the general and prince who will send her bride, all other things have been decided.
As for Bai Ling, the legendary King Zhong also came to Beijing.
"This loyal king knows that the emperor has ulterior motives for sending the prince to greet him, but he still puts on such a big show, isn't he afraid of dying too quickly?" Bai Ling said in a private room of the restaurant.
Duan Yulang came to Beijing and invited Bai Ling and Shangguan Yu to meet in a restaurant.
It happened that they were in a box where they could see the prince welcoming King Zhong into the capital.
It stands to reason that when you see the crown prince of a country, Prince Zhong should salute you. However, the crown prince bowed as a junior, but Prince Zhong didn't even show any sign of it and completely ignored him.
Even if the emperor is tolerant and the prince can successfully ascend the throne in the future, he will not let the loyal king go.
"Perhaps this is the strength of King Zhong." Shangguan Yu only glanced at him, then withdrew his gaze and said with deep meaning.
Bai Ling didn't notice Shangguan Yu's expression, and thought he was mocking King Zhong, so he nodded and said: "The fief of King Zhong, like the fief of the Han Dynasty, does not need to pay taxes to the court. But there is peace on the other side of the fief.
, the military consumption is low. Having military power and no shortage of money means that it is indeed very powerful."
"Who said that Prince Zhong's Mansion is not short of money?" Duan Yulang shook his folding fan, leaned towards Bai Ling, and lowered his voice: "It is said that the consumption of Prince Zhong's Mansion in one year is more than that of the Imperial Palace. The floor of Prince Zhong's Mansion is made of jade.
The paving and the huts are all made of gold. How can we afford such a squandering just by relying on the tax revenue from the fiefdom?"
"Are you sure you're not talking about the nouveau riche?" Bai Ling didn't quite believe it, and then murmured to himself: "Maybe I should think about it. When I build a house in the future, I can just use jade as the floor and gold as the hut. But for
Being a concierge should be quite impressive."
"You're just waiting to attract thieves."
Duan Yulang said disdainfully: "As expected, I came from the countryside, but my knowledge is short. What I just said is just a metaphor. Do you understand the metaphor? In Prince Zhong's palace, there are indeed several rooms with jade-paved floors. Other places
Even if you want to use so much jade, it is not something you can do with money.
In short, the endless extravagance of Prince Zhong's Mansion is beyond your imagination. Over the years, everyone who has been to Prince Zhong's Mansion has lamented that Prince Zhong's Mansion is more luxurious than the imperial palace. Many people are proud to have visited Prince Zhong's Mansion to experience it.
"
"No matter how rich he is, what can he do? He will always be inferior to one person. If he really wants that position, he will be a traitor and traitor. He will still have a three-foot wide place to sleep, and he will not be able to take anything with him when he dies."
Bai Ling rolled his eyes, unable to stand the yearning look on Duan Yulang's face, and slapped him on the back of the head.
"Kid, wake up. As the future richest man in Northland, you should take a longer view and stop daydreaming like a country bumpkin."
"Sooner or later, I will build a house like that, which will make you envious." Duan Yulang grinned after being beaten, but he did not dare to fight back, so he could only say something angry.
"Prince Zhong is a prince, and even if he built a house like that, he would still be jealous of the emperor. If it were you, the emperor would probably find some excuse to confiscate your family and exterminate your family. By then, those good things will be enough to fill the treasury."
After pouring a cup of wolfberry and red date tea for Shangguan Yu, Bai Ling moved his chair in disgust, leaned next to Shangguan Yu and said, "Shangguan, I suggest you have someone keep an eye on this guy for twelve hours, just in case one day he is priced out.
To exterminate the clan, you might as well transfer the property first and kill people and silence them at the same time."
"Okay." Shangguan Yu responded with a smile.
During this period of time, Bai Ling was able to stay with Shangguan Yu, but he also understood that Shangguan Yu was a patient and could not get angry with him. Instead, he had to give in to everything.
Now that he meets Duan Yulang, he will naturally have to have a few words, otherwise Shangguan Yu would have thrown Duan Yulang out long ago.
"There is no humanity in people of the opposite sex. Bai Ling's words could not be more suitable for you." Duan Yulang said angrily.
"Is your marriage scheduled for the beginning of the new year?" Bai Ling suddenly asked.
"Yes, what do you mean?" Duan Yulang asked defensively.
"Originally, there was an offer to make money, and I wanted to cooperate with you as a gift. Now it seems that it is no longer necessary." Bai Ling shook his head and sighed softly.
Duan Yulang was dumbfounded. The business he got was lost just because of his bad words?
"I was wrong." Duan Yulang immediately apologized and said sincerely: "No matter what the business is, I will give you 10% of the profit as my apology to you. Miss Bai, please forgive me this time."
"Why do I ask you to give up 10% of the profit on a business that I can do myself?" Bai Ling remained unmoved.
"Good brother, I was a bitch just now. Just treat me as a brother. I farted loudly. Just forget it. Don't be the same as me." Understanding that Bai Ling was standing up for Shangguan Yu, Duan Yulang immediately asked for help.
Shangguan Yu's side.
"It's too late." Shangguan Yu didn't show any mercy at all. He took Bai Ling's hand and started to stand up. He even arrogantly uttered two words, "Friends are over!"
"Don't!" Duan Yulang immediately stood up to stop him, and gave himself a symbolic slap, "My only hobby is being a talkative person. I also have a fatal flaw, I like to make money. I don't care about my face.
For the sake of my parents, can you give me a chance to change my ways?"
Duan Yulang was extremely envious of Shangguan Yu. He always felt arrogant when a woman stood up for him.
Unfortunately, he is not married yet, and his fiancée is also a weak master, so he will not be so lucky in this life.
Bai Ling had no intention of leaving just like that, mainly because her man could only bully her, so Duan Yulang had to pay a price for it.
"One and a half percent of the profit, no two prices." Bai Ling gestured and said seriously: "Don't say I took advantage of you, just give me the 15% of the profit you deserve.
And, it only takes one time.”
"Deal." Duan Yulang agreed without hesitation.
The three of them sat down again, but they were talking about business matters.
Although they are usually good friends, when it comes to business sharing, no one is willing to give in.
But they all knew where the other party’s bottom line was, so the negotiation went smoothly.
Let us also say that the prince personally welcomed Prince Zhong into the palace, originally to give Prince Zhong face.
However, Prince Zhong's arrogant attitude made the prince want to fall out with him several times. Finally, he suppressed his anger and simply rode ahead and stopped communicating with Prince Zhong.
After leading the people to Cining Palace, the prince directly found an excuse, knelt before the queen mother and left the palace.
"The prince has such a temper. Fortunately for him, he is the prince, so his brothers have to let him go." Prince Zhong said dissatisfied.
When the emperor heard this, he knew what was going on, and his smile became a little faker.
"The prince has been the crown prince since he was a child, and his temper is inevitably a bit proud. Today, our uncles and nephews are reminiscing about the past, not talking about the younger generation." The emperor waved his hand and said very affectionately: "The queen has prepared lunch here, the emperor
Uncle, I want to have a few more drinks with me later."
"The old illness has recurred, and it is not suitable to drink." Prince Zhong refused very shamelessly. Before the emperor's face turned dark, he said again: "I haven't seen anything good for more than a month. I heard that the girl has been in a bad mood recently. I will go back to Prince Zhong's mansion for dinner today.
, I will go back to the palace to have wine with the Queen Mother and the Emperor in a few days." (To be continued)
