The Beloved Imperial Consort

Chapter 258: partition

"Prince Prince, you and a few adults are here to invite you. This "Beauty House" is a character that the slave family used to keep for you, so I can do it whenever you want." Madam Hua's enchanting greeting came from the door, and Mu Xiyao was heard. Swallowing suddenly slowed down.

The prince was actually placed next door? No wonder Zong Zhenglin asked people to avoid him. But the "Beauty Pavilion" in the woman's mouth seemed very imposing. What is the name of her and the boss now in this room

Putting down the tea bowl, Mu Xiyao poked Zong Zhenglin's arm. This red building is Zong Zhenglin's property. Just because this grandfather has a domineering temperament, there is no reason for him to hand over good things to others on his own territory.

Seeing that although she couldn't speak, she was still restless, Zong Zhenglin didn't need to think deeply, he could see through Mu Xiyao's thoughts at a glance.

"I don't have to twist my neck." She straightened her head, which was spinning around, and grabbed the empty tea bowl on the table, motioning her to look at the glaze on the bottom.

Mu Xiyao took a closer look and frowned gradually.

"Maoshe", what does this mean

卯... Fourth order, could it mean the fourth room? She looked suspiciously around the circle, and all the extravagant decorations dazzled her. In this way, if it really ranks fourth, I am afraid that tomorrow, Emperor Yuan Cheng will have to find a name, and the excuse will be copied...

After drinking a sip of tea in a hurry, and finally feeling at ease, Mu Xiyao couldn't hold back her curiosity and hurriedly asked. "His Royal Highness, what does '卯she' mean? My concubine didn't want to understand."

It stands to reason that there are not a few isolated books she has read, so why has she never seen these two words appear together in a book

Zong Zhenglin's eyes were dark, and he stroked her hair with no deep meaning.

"Jiaojiao, think carefully." Mu Xiyao asked this question, and Zong Zhenglin didn't want to answer.

This room is exclusively for him, and all the furnishings have considered the preferences of the two. Otherwise, Mu Xiyao wouldn't have caught her eye as soon as she entered the room, and hurriedly sat down, focusing only on comfort.

Huh? The big boss's statement seems to be very particular... Mu Xiyao stroked his chin and focused on the tea bowl in his hand.

After Xiao Banzhuxiang passed, she saw that her complexion gradually became strange, and finally she couldn't help blushing. She squinted at Zong Zhenglin with shyness, resentment in her shyness.

This man... what to say about him.

"Jiaojiao is ashamed?" Zong Zhenglin stroked her shy, warm profile, leaned over and kissed her, with a chuckle in his throat.

"No problem. When a man comes to the Red House, he is a confidante. There is Jiaojiao in this hall, how embarrassing?"

Mu Xiyao appears to be bold in appearance, but in fact, when it comes to love between men and women, she is often not as shy as a woman, but rather like a young girl when she first learned about love, she was too young to lose face.

"His Royal Highness!" Mu Xiyao twisted her back to the person, not wanting to be flirted by this man without shame or shame during the day.

Only when she took a closer look, did she recognize that the word was clearly written by Zong Zhenglin. After thinking about it like this, there is still something I don't understand. Just like her Danruo Garden, it was also a plaque inscribed by Zong Zhenglin himself. The word "Danruo" is another name for pomegranate, which means more sons and more blessings.

And Mao's explanation here does have the meaning of "fourth", but it refers to the word "rabbit", which ranks fourth in the Chinese zodiac. In this way, the meaning of the word "she" is self-evident.

But what made Mu Xiyao very annoyed was that Zong Zhenglin had made fun of the two cute rabbits in her yard many times. At first, she was foolish enough to play along, until more often, she was handsome and happy every time he watched her laugh and laugh, and finally she jumped with anger and discovered the "bad thoughts" in His Highness's heart that he didn't want to express.

Comparing the two phases and one comparison, the sixth highness named this elegant room - "Maoshe", the house where the rabbit lives, commonly known as: the rabbit's nest!

It's just so annoying!

"You're making fun of your concubine again, and it's so clearly engraved on the object! It's all over the place!" Thanks to her, she still held the tea bowl and ate it for a long time. I don't know how many jokes Zong Zhenglin saw!

"Tomorrow, a concubine will embroider your name on the plush cushion of the concubine's house. If you don't sit for three or five hours a day, the concubine still won't go to the ground!"

With a loud slap, Mu Xiyao clutched her buttocks and cried out in pain.

"Jiaojiao can try." This woman dared to think about anything. If the tiger's whiskers are scratched, it doesn't matter, is this going to ride on his head

"However, Jiaojiao's craftsmanship... It's better not to think too much." Zong Zhenglin held her five fingers, turned around seriously, and his eyes couldn't help but fill with a smile.

Mu Xiyao's expression was stagnant, and then her face flushed instantly, and her head slammed into his arms in shame and anger.

Knowing that Nu Hong can escape the big boss for fun, even if she has to hold back the pain in her heart, she has to bite the bullet and pass this level!

This Mu Xiyao was arguing with Zong Zhenglin when a woman suddenly sounded like there was no presence from the other side of the wall.

Mu Xiyao's small ears were trembling, and she turned her head sideways to concentrate. After a while, there was a light smile and noise from there, which made her realize that she almost missed the main stage.

It's so easy to come to the brothel Chu Pavilion, how can you always stay in the house, facing the handsome face of the boss, you haven't even seen a romantic woman, saying it out is a joke.

"Your Highness, do you call a girl who plays music in?"

Zong Zhenglin frowned, "You can't give up the woman next to you."

Mu Xiyao was helpless and worried. This reason is very legitimate, do you want to be called a servant? If she really dared to propose to His Highness the Sixth Highness like this, wouldn't she be pouting her ass and begging for a beating under Zong Zhenglin's nose

"If it's boring, look at the liveliness next door?" Zong Zhenglin cast bait.

Mu Xiyao's small ears stood up, and her beautiful eyes were full of brilliance. Seeing Zong Zhenglin leaning over suddenly, his face close in front of her, his dark eyes stared straight into her eyes, although he was silent, the meaning of his actions could not be more clear.

Mu Xiyao's eyelashes fluttered, and her heart beat faster.

This man is easy to fall in love with, but also shows tyranny and domineering. If he wants benefits for himself, he has to have people come together to cater to him.

Du Zui'er quickly put on his profile face, each with a kiss, and Zong Zhenglin showed satisfaction. He hugged her up and walked around the screen. The two hugged together, sitting on the heated kang.

Mu Xiyao didn't see his movements clearly, but felt as if he had pressed a button somewhere, and the sound from the compartment clearly fell into his ears.

"Prince Prince, this is no trivial matter. The lower officials really can't be in charge."

"Master Fang is really polite. The dignified servant of the household, I can't handle the trivial matters. Can the emperor leave this position to you with confidence?"

"This... Your Highness, it's not easy to fool the Lord Shang Shu."

"What are you afraid of. As long as everyone here joins forces and helps each other, are you afraid that he will not be able to do everything by himself?"

The big and small officials next to him also agreed, and finally let the servant master be no match for the crowd, and gradually relaxed.

"Then Crown Prince, you have to give the lower official a thorough understanding, so that the little one can feel more at ease? How much do you plan to pay this time? When will it be returned?"

Mu Xiyao opened her small mouth, and tightened the hand holding Zong Zhenglin's shirt slightly.

Zong Zhenghui! He dared to put his idea on the head of the household and privately "borrow" silver taels from the treasury, which was a big violation of Yuan Chengdi's taboo. Not to mention the current military salaries and forages, it is at a critical juncture.

"Not much, 700,000 taels. If you hurry, you can pay it back in three months."

Mu Xiyao shook his head secretly, and Zong Zhenghui opened his mouth, thinking that the treasury was his private house.

Looking back at Zong Zhenglin's expression, he really saw that this grandfather's face was as black as ink, and his phoenix eyes were frighteningly cold. To say that what Emperor Jian'an hated the most in his previous life, privately embezzling the silver from the Great Wei State's inventory, would definitely be ranked first. Now that I have personally heard that the prince and the minister of the household are working together as courtiers, how can they blatantly attack the treasury

Mu Xiyao stretched out his hand to hold his palm and rubbed it lightly twice. It was really not worth getting angry at this person.

Seeing her concern, Zong Zhenglin slowly softened his expression. He held her soft cat back in his hand and continued to listen to how the other side responded.

"Prince Prince, let alone 700,000 taels, it is half of it, and even the lower officials are unable to make it for you. You also know that the emperor is pressing hard at this moment..."

"Well, well, well, don't talk about it, it's all about terms and conditions. Just say it directly, how many taels of silver can the Ministry of Household give out to the solitary envoy!"

"This..." The man hesitated for a long time, but reluctantly reported the number, "At most, it can't exceed the amount of 150,000 taels of silver."

Mu Xiyao's eyes flickered, and she became clear. It seems that this waiter is not really stupid. 150,000 taels, just enough to escape the horrific criminal law. The people in the official circle are indeed all human beings. If the prince could pull down his face, borrow a mere 100,000 taels of silver, and be willing to risk being convicted by Emperor Yuancheng, then this position may not be stable for a long time.

Answering Mu Xiyao's conjecture, Zong Zhenghui next door was furious and slapped the table hard, "You are so foolish! Fifty thousand taels of silver are going to send beggars."

The prince was angry, and the people in the room naturally did not dare to neglect. The pleas for guilt rang out one after another, especially the waiter who shouted that he didn't dare, and Mu Xiyao couldn't help but be moved when he heard the sound of kowtow.

Ruthless man, it's really hard for him to be ruthless in acting.

"His Royal Highness, who is this person who kowtows?" At first, I thought it was a conspiracy, but I never thought that I would dare to make excuses in front of the prince.

To say that only 150,000 taels of the national treasury can be misappropriated, Mu Xiyao would never believe it. If that's the case, wouldn't the treasure of King Wing be gone

"Fang Qinglin, the newly appointed Minister of the Household." Zong Zhenglin's eyes were also full of interest. This person is not small, and he dares to speak nonsense in front of the prince.

The two were whispering when they heard someone on the other end exclaim, "Master Fang passed out when he saw the blood!"

Mu Xiyao covered her mouth with a puff and fell into Zong Zhenglin's arms, her shoulders trembling uncontrollably.

Talent, talent... Now, let's not talk about the 150,000 taels that the prince said that even beggars disliked, it's just a penny, and it's impossible to get it.

Zong Zhenghui burst into anger and felt disgraced, and threw the crowd away in a rage, leaving only a submissive attendant on the sidelines.

"Go, ask four or five beautiful girls to come in. The anger in Gu's heart must be spread out on the beauty."

Mu Xiyao had a look of disgust on her face, and was about to speak out to let Zong Zhenglin go outside.

"If it wasn't for the old man who did something bad, Gu Yan would have been so happy to hold Chunyu that woman to be turned into a red wave. Where can I use this place of fireworks, I would be unhappy."

"You can't get ecstasy on Namu's bed, and you can't even find a like-minded stand-in, it's too hateful!"
