"What?" King Chen looked at the cloak that Jiuzhu opened, and there was actually a carved wooden box hidden inside.
"Hehe." Jiuzhu smiled mysteriously, pulled the cloak outside, and tried her best to cover herself and King Chen: "Your Highness, open it and take a look."
"Then I opened it?" King Chen recalled the bad behavior of using a gift box to send his teacher to his teacher when he was a child: "Is there nothing else in it?"
"There are a lot of them." Jiuzhu touched the box reluctantly: "This is something I've been saving for a long time, please open it quickly and don't let anyone see it."
Under Jiu Zhu's expectant gaze, King Chen opened the box and was stunned when he saw the contents inside.
Broken silver, silver bills, golden hairpins, even golden peanuts specially made by elders for juniors, and several copper coins.
Copper coins... are they considered treasures
"this is?"
"It's for you." Jiuzhu put the wooden box into King Chen's arms: "These hairpins are all pure gold and are relatively valuable. There are also two or three hundred taels of broken silver and silver bills, you take them first. Use it, I will bring you money when I enter the palace next time."
"What are you doing with the money for me?"
The heavy wooden box should be all of Ming Xiaozhu's belongings.
"I've already heard what happened in the palace." Jiu Zhu lowered her voice: "Your Majesty will stop your salary for half a year, and won't let the empress give you anything."
The emperor made all his promises, saying that he would definitely not give him money to stop His Highness's salary. His Royal Highness is used to eating fine clothes and jade on weekdays. How can I live without money
King Chen's hand holding the wooden box moved slightly, and the broken silver rolled in the wooden box, making a pleasant sound.
"Give me the money, what will you do?"
"Recently, the sixth brother asked me to help him run errands, so he should be able to earn a small amount of money, and I don't need to worry about other food and drink expenses." Jiuzhu carefully calculated how to spend this month: "The Chinese New Year is coming, the elders in the family should Give me lucky money. So don't worry, I won't be short of money to spend."
"For the next six months, will you support me?" King Chen held the wooden box and giggled.
"Well, I'll take care of you." Jiuzhu nodded: "I just want to aggrieve His Highness and save some money."
King Chen looked at the girl who was squatting in front of him, his heartbeat was like broken silver in a box, and it was beating vigorously, so loud and fast, that it even made a noise to his ears.
He rubbed his ears: "I have money, how can I spend your little girl's money."
Jiuzhu held her face in her hands and looked at King Chen aggrievedly: "Your Highness, do you really want it?"
"No." King Chen put the wooden box back on her lap: "You take it back and spend it yourself."
Other little girls go shopping to buy rouge gouache, does his little girl want to watch
"Okay." Jiuzhu lowered her head, she picked the relief on the wooden box: "Then I'll go to the imperial concubine."
"Wait." King Chen grabbed her hand and sighed.
Jiuzhu looked at him with big watery eyes.
"Half of us?" King Chen opened the box: "You keep the golden hairpin, I'll take the silver note, and break the silver... We're half-divided, okay?"
It turns out that if you don't want the little girl's money, you will feel guilty.
"Okay." Jiuzhu nodded happily: "The golden hairpin is divided into two for you. The denomination of the silver note is too small for your Highness to spend."
"Okay, the golden hairpin is divided into two for me." Seeing that Jiuzhu was really happy, King Chen felt relieved. The girl's mood changes too fast, even in June.
Emperor Longfeng stood silently in the same place, watching his son divide the money with the little girl. You get one piece, I get one piece, and even several copper coins are evenly distributed.
"The box is also given to you. Sister Spring Equinox said that this kind of wood is the most valuable." Jiuzhu poked the golden hairpin into her hair bun: "After the New Year's Eve, I will get the salary and the New Year's money, and I will come back to give silver to His Highness."
King Chen helped her adjust the position of the golden hairpin, and said slowly, "Okay."
Anyway, she is happy.
"What are you doing here?" Emperor Longfeng waited for a long time, and finally waited for them to divide the money and walked slowly behind them.
"Your Majesty?" Jiu Zhu quickly took the wooden box from King Chen's hand, and stood up to salute Emperor Longfeng: "My servant, please give your Majesty your peace."
"Father." King Chen bowed to Emperor Longfeng: "Why are you here?"
"Come and see you." Emperor Longfeng glanced at the purse on his son's waist and smiled gently at Jiuzhu: "Jiuzhu, what game are you doing here with Du Qing?"
"Go back to Your Majesty, the minister and daughter have newly acquired two golden hairpins, and I want Your Highness to take a look." Jiuzhu lowered her eyelids, embarrassed to see Emperor Longfeng. As the daughter of a courtier, she was guilty of lying to His Majesty.
"Yeah." Emperor Longfeng nodded, turned to Liu Zhongbao and said, "I have several sets of jewelry headpieces in my private storehouse. You can take them to Mingyue Palace and let your concubine and Jiuzhu wear them."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Jiuzhu felt even more guilty. She lied to His Majesty, and His Majesty also rewarded her and the Empress with jewelry. She was guilty!
Seeing Jiuzhu's dejected, ashamed and ashamed appearance, King Chen couldn't help but say, "Imperial Father, don't tease Miss Ming, she's still young."
Emperor Longfeng looked at his son with a half-smiling smile, is this protected
King Chen coughed dryly, and Hu stayed silent beside Jiuzhu.
"You haven't seen each other for a long time. We walked around together. I will go back to Taiyang Palace first." Emperor Longfeng glanced at Zhang Liugong and turned to leave.
When Emperor Longfeng left, Jiuzhu breathed a sigh of relief and whispered to King Chen: "Fortunately, Your Majesty didn't notice that I smuggled silver for you."
King Chen lovingly touched her head: "Let's go, I'll walk with you and take you to the Mingyue Palace."
Jiuzhu touched the place touched by King Chen: "Your Highness, are you still used to living in Zhangliu Palace?"
"It's okay, it's just a little narrow, not as comfortable as the palace."
"Oh." Jiuzhu nodded clearly. His Highness was wronged, and she pointed to the wooden box: "Your Highness, let your servants take this back to your yard first."
"Okay." King Chen called a little eunuch, and when he reached out his hand to pick up the wooden box, Jiuzhu had already put the box into the little eunuch's hand: "I'm sorry, little father-in-law."
"Little slave dare not." The little eunuch stepped back holding the wooden box, and when he entered the courtyard gate, he looked back. The girl from the Ming family didn't know what to say, but His Highness looked at the girl with tenderness in his eyes.
The dark guard, who was hidden in the dark, finally couldn't help covering his mouth and laughing silently after King Chen and Princess Chen left in the future. The branches trembled and the leaves rustled.
Hahahahaha, His Royal Highness King Chen actually asked his fiancee to secretly take money to support him.
Laughing and laughing, he suddenly stopped laughing.
The noble lady of the imperial court, going around such a big circle, taking the risk of offending the emperor, but also sending her silver taels into the palace, such affection...
Not only did he not want to laugh, he was also a little sour.
"Ming Xiaozhu." King Chen looked at Jiuzhu who walked briskly: "There are only eight days left until New Year's Eve."
There were forty days left, and it was the day of his wedding with her.
"Yeah!" Jiuzhu nodded happily: "Mother said that after the New Year, my brother will be back."
Only then did King Chen remember that Ming Jiuzhu had another older brother. If he remembered correctly, Yun Yanze admired Ming Jiuzhu's brother very much.
What is the name of his future uncle
Ming... Ming is far away
Reading and sending a poem from afar is better than reading ten thousand volumes of books.
Many people said that with Ming Jiyuan's talent, he could have won the first place in the palace exam. It's just that the Ming family has already won two champions and one third. If he were to be ranked first in high school, it would attract many people's dissatisfaction, so the court deliberately suppressed his ranking and let him take the biography.
Chuanlu, the fourth place in the palace examination and the first place in the top two, is still a ranking that many scholars in the world can only hope for.
He had never dealt with this kind of scholar before, and he didn't know if the future eldest brother would have any opinion on him
Generally, people who admire Yun Yanze don't seem to like him very much.
"Brother Ling, do you know about my engagement with you?" King Chen's cheeks were a little hot: "What does he like on weekdays, when he comes back, this king... should also take care of him."
"I should know." Jiu Zhu stopped, biting the corner of her lips in thought.
"Don't bite." King Chen stretched out his finger and gently brushed the corner of her lips.
"Ah?" Jiu Zhu looked at him blankly.
"No, it's nothing." King Chen clenched his hands into fists and put his back behind him, his cheeks even hotter: "I just told you not to bite your lip, it's you who will hurt when you bite it."
"Oh." Jiuzhu licked her lips with the tip of her tongue: "It's not broken."
King Chen looked at her lips, turned his head, and his cheeks completely turned into burning clouds.
"His Royal Highness, what's wrong with you?" Jiuzhu ran to his side: "Blushing?"
King Chen turned his face to the other side: "No, you read it wrong, this king's cloak is too red."
Jiuzhu ran around King Chen to the other side, and said seriously: "It's really popular, it has nothing to do with the cloak."
"Don't talk anymore." King Chen stretched out his hand to cover her mouth: "Otherwise, this king, this king..."
What can he do with her
You can't fight, you can't scold.
With big eyes, long eyelashes, and curved willow-leaf eyebrows, when he looked at him with a smile, he looked like a puppy.
He had never been so clearly aware that he had nothing to do with Ming Jiuzhu.
He, Yun Duqing, seemed to be finished.
King Chen let go of his hand and sighed.
Jiuzhu blinked at him, blinked again.
"If you want to say something, just say it." King Chen looked up at the sky: "My lord, I accept it."
Jiuzhu stood on tiptoe and reached out to touch King Chen's forehead.
King Chen looked down at her.
"The forehead is not hot." Jiu Zhu withdrew her hand: "It's good that His Highness is not sick."
"Yeah." King Chen lowered his eyelids, his long eyelashes, like a butterfly with wings ready to fly.
"The slaves have seen His Royal Highness King Chen and the Ming County Lord."
Jiuzhu looked at the court lady who was saluting: "You are the lady official's sister last time, how are you?"
"Thank you for the concern of the county lord, the slaves are fine." Bai Shao gave Jiuzhu a big gift: "The county master's kindness, the slaves will keep it in mind."
"It's just fine." Jiuzhu waved her hand: "I just asked someone to ask your pulse and get medicine."
Bai Shao gave a big gift in silence. The county magistrate did not know how difficult it was for eunuchs and maids to get medicine in the imperial hospital, and how many maids and eunuchs died in the palace every year due to illness.
"It's really okay, do you want me to show it to you again?" Jiuzhu remembered the appearance of the female official that day, and she is still very shocked.
Bai Shao shook his head, hurriedly bowed to King Chen and Jiu Zhu, and bowed to leave.
"Why is she in such a hurry?" Jiu Zhu found that the other party's back looked much thinner.
"She is the first-class maid of Lanxu Palace. You are the future concubine of this king. Of course, you can't talk to you." King Chen raised his eyebrows and sneered: "There is no shortage of people in the palace who are gentle on the outside, but hate their mother-in-law in their hearts."
"How could they dislike such a beautiful and kind empress?" Jiuzhu sighed, "How picky should the people in the palace be?"
King Chen smiled and shook his head.
At present, beauty and kindness are useless things.
