"That's true." Lu Qiao's eyes moved, "I guess the master will be so annoyed that his flesh hurts."
The study of the prime minister's mansion.
When Zhong Liyi learned of this, the corners of his mouth twitched, but because of face, he could only suppress his anger, "Just follow His Highness Prince Gong's wishes, and make it look good!"
"Yes." Luqiao paused, then raised her head, and said to Zhong Liyi, "His Royal Highness also said that he has arranged a square formation of sixty-six people to carry my lady's dowry. Slaves After a rough calculation, since there are sixty-six people, if two people bet on one carriage, it will be thirty-three carriages, and each carriage will contain at least six wedding boxes, which amounts to two hundred and sixty-four boxes of dowry. Auspicious, you have to come up with a nice number, at least two hundred and sixty-six boxes of dowry... "
As soon as Luqiao settled the account, Zhong Liyi's eyes widened.
It would be fine if the ostentation was bigger, and it would cost a few thousand taels of silver more, but the dowry cost two hundred and sixty-six boxes... This still doesn't cost him half of the prime minister's mansion!
"This..." Zhong Liyi frowned, then coughed violently.
Lu Qiao looked at her words and said hurriedly, "Master, do you feel that you can't afford to leave? If you can't, I will send someone to discuss with Prince Gong's mansion, and send less horses and horses over here, lest when the time comes, the team will come, but there will be empty cars to go back." ... One is unlucky, and the other is that people will laugh at them."
As Zhong Liyi listened, the wrinkles on his face became more and more obvious.
"If the master has no other intentions, the slave girl will go to Prince Gong's mansion now?" Lu Qiao stood up straight, pointed out the door.
"etc--"
She had already stepped out of the study with half a foot, and Zhong Liyi stopped her cruelly, "Go to the accountant to pick up the money, and let Mrs. Yingying take care of it. You must pay for the dowry of the third lady. You must make up the two hundred and sixty yuan." Six boxes!"
"Really?!" Luqiao thought that she had a problem with her ears and heard wrongly.
Zhong Liyi coughed heavily, "Of course it is true!"
Can you not take it seriously
Let the servant girls in his mansion go to discuss with Prince Gong's mansion, and send less people to pick up the bride because the dowry is not prepared enough. If this word gets out, where will his old face be? ! I'm afraid that the fact that the prime minister can't afford to pay the dowry for marrying his daughter will be widely circulated in the court for a long time, right? !
Zhong Liyi had no choice but to be ruthless and cut off a third of the prime minister's mansion!
Luqiao was overjoyed, and hurried to Wanyun Pavilion to report.
"Miss, miss! The servants went to report to the master according to my uncle's wishes, but the master actually promised to give the lady two hundred and sixty-six boxes as a dowry, and Mrs. Yingying would buy it herself!"
Dongfang Jing had no interest in getting married at all, so when talking about her dowry, she couldn't lift her spirits.
"Oh." She twitched the corners of her mouth and agreed lightly.
"Miss, why do you have such an expression?" Lu Qiao curled her lips, "Young master is really kind to you, I have thought of everything, just want you to marry well!"
Dongfang Jing didn't care about these things at first, but when she thought about Zhong Liyi's gritted teeth expression, she felt very happy, "That's good, my father has been rampant for so many years, and finally someone can cure him!"
Right now.
There was a loud noise from the front yard, and no one knew who broke into the prime minister's mansion. Not long after, firecrackers were set off again in the backyard, looking festive.
Jin Qiu came quickly, and said to Dongfang Jing, "Girl, the third lady is back!"
