Eat the whole family? I emptied the storehouse of the Marquis' Mansion and married the crippled

Just when Marquis Danyang was feeling proud and everything was going in a good direction.

Who could have thought that when the two children grew up and were about to get married, Xiao Mo was seriously injured on the battlefield, breaking both legs and could never stand up again.

Such a prince would definitely not be able to inherit the throne, and finally Xiao Mo took the initiative to ask Emperor Jing to depose him from the position of prince.

Emperor Jing took pity on him, so he made him the King of Qin, making him the leader of all princes.

If Ye Yanran could become the Princess of Qin, that would naturally be very good.

But since Xiao Mo was injured, he has become a completely different person.

He no longer attended court and stayed in the Prince of Qin's Palace all day long. The once high-spirited prince was gone forever, replaced by the dissolute and moody Prince of Qin.

In just these few months, I heard that several women were carried out from the King of Qin's bedroom.

Faced with such a powerful King of Qin, how could Marquis Danyang dare to marry his granddaughter to him?

What his Danyang Marquisate needed was a helpful King of Qin, not a useless King of Qin.

"As long as the emperor doesn't mention this matter, we will just pretend it doesn't exist. Our Yanran can only be the Crown Princess in the future."

"It's great that you think so, my Lord. I was really worried that you would want to accept this marriage because of the tokens you exchanged with the Emperor."

Old Madam Ye breathed a sigh of relief. Ye Yanran was both talented and beautiful, and was the best among the girls in the family.

Whether the Danyang Marquisate can prosper in the future depends on how Ye Yanran marries.

"Don't worry, Madam. I'm not that pedantic."

"Yanran is not young anymore, we need to plan her marriage early, does the Marquis have any ideas?"

"Right now, the Fourth Prince is the most popular, but he is still young after all. The Second Prince is a little older and has already participated in government affairs. He also has the support of Concubine Ru and the Left Prime Minister behind him, so he is also likely to be appointed as the Crown Prince."

"The Third Prince has a great general behind him, so he should not be underestimated."

The old marquis sighed and continued, "Before everything became clear, the Fourth Prince contacted me frequently. I couldn't refuse or not, which was really a headache."

If he stands on the wrong side at this time, it will affect the future development of the entire Danyang Marquis Mansion, so he dare not act rashly.

"I do have a plan, but I don't know if it will work."

"Madam, just tell me what you think. It might be useful."

Seeing how anxious Marquis Danyang was, Old Lady Ye didn't beat around the bush and told him her thoughts.

"Song'er brought the sixth girl back a few days ago, and also brought back the ashes of the sixth brother and his wife."

"According to my temper, I would like to scatter the ashes of Lao Liu and his wife directly into the cesspool."

The Marquis of Danyang on the side smiled awkwardly, "It's been so many years since this happened, why should Madam still care about it?"

"Over the years, I have kept it in mind. Every time I think of you killing my daughter because of a bitch, I wish I could grind that bitch's son to dust."

"Hey, Madam, can we not bring this up?"

Old Madam Ye rolled her eyes at the old marquis and briefly told him about their burial in the ancestral tomb.

"You can tell the public that because of the death of the sixth brother, you are seriously ill and can take a temporary leave to recuperate at home."

"As long as the Fourth Prince is not stupid, he will definitely not try to win over the Marquis at this time."

"Well, that's a good idea. I'll submit a petition tomorrow morning to avoid the spotlight."

Marquis Danyang also felt that this was a good idea. As long as he did not have too close contact with the Fourth Prince for the time being, everything would be fine.

The couple talked about other things in the mansion for a while, and neither of them mentioned Ye Jintang.

It's as if she doesn't exist at all.

The news that Old Madam Ye sent two maids to Ye Jintang quickly spread throughout the Marquis's mansion.

Some people thought that Old Madam Ye still valued Ye Jintang very much, otherwise she would not have sent two second-class maids to her at once.

Some people also saw clearly that Old Madam Ye should have sent two maids to monitor Ye Jintang.

After receiving the news, the eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Gan, immediately called Ye Yanran to her room to talk.

"When Ye Jintang just came back, I asked your eldest brother's servant to inquire about it. Ye Song said that Ye Jintang's grandfather should have given her money, but it was a banknote, and Ye Jintang simply hid it."

"I guess the old lady sent two second-class maids to Ye Jintang to find out how much silver the Wen family gave Ye Jintang."

"As far as I know, the Xingnan Wen family is also a big family. Their donation will definitely not be too shabby."

"In the afternoon, bring two boxes of snacks and go talk to Ye Jintang and see if you can get something out of her."

Ye Yanran nodded. Although she and Ye Jintang had only met once, she didn't look like a particularly scheming person. As long as she was willing to find out the information, it would not be difficult for her to find out.

"Mother, life in our mansion is getting worse year by year. My eldest brother originally promised me that he would make me a new headgear, but in the end, it never happened."

"Well, your grandmother said she would give your eldest brother some money, asking him to take good care of it and see if he can get a promotion by the end of the year."

"Your elder brother is thinking about you, so he is going to give you some money to make jewelry."

"But I don't know what went wrong. Your grandmother didn't give me the money, so I can only give up on making jewelry for you."

"There is not much money in our mansion. The expenses in our courtyard are not small, and my mother is also short of money, otherwise she would not be thinking about the little money in Ye Jintang's hand."

"She is an orphan and has little money to spend. We will embezzle some of it from her first, and when you become the Crown Princess and Queen, you can give her more."

Ye Yanran felt that what Mrs. Gan said made some sense.

She and the Fourth Prince had met privately several times, and they loved each other. A few days ago, the Fourth Prince even invited her to go to the White Horse Temple to appreciate the plum blossoms.

Ye Yanran naturally wanted to dress up beautifully when she was going to meet the person she liked, but she only had a few pieces of clothes in her suitcase and hadn't bought anything more expensive for a long time.

If she could borrow some money from Ye Jintang for emergency use, she would naturally return it double when she had money in the future.

"My daughter will go there this afternoon. Don't let grandma get there first. If the money falls into grandma's hands, it won't be so easy for us to get it back."

The mother and daughter smiled at each other and didn't continue the conversation.

They all knew that Madam Ye was a miser, and if they wanted to take the money out of her hands, it would be like asking her to die.

Every family has its own calculations, and Ye Jintang is no exception. While others are calculating the little money she has, she is calculating the money of the entire marquis's mansion.

However, Ye Jintang had just moved in, so he was not in a hurry to empty out Old Madam Ye's warehouse.

The most important thing right now is to find out the details of the Marquis' Mansion.

A few days ago, Ye Jintang asked Lu Zhu to inquire.

Lu Zhu went in and out of the corner gate several times almost every day to buy things, and gradually became familiar with the woman at the corner gate.

She knew that she was not a very smart person, so she didn't dare to ask anything at first. She just talked to the old woman at the corner gate about eating and drinking, and occasionally gossiped.

One day, Luzhu heard that Gu Po's grandson was sick, so she directly gave her 10 taels of silver.

Money makes the world go round, especially when Mrs. Gu is in urgent need of money.

"Madame Gu, my daughter is also pitiful. She has no father and no mother. Now she only has two relatives left, the old marquis and the old lady."

"But the old marquis and the old lady don't seem to care about my girl. Since returning to the marquis' mansion, my girl has cried countless times."
