If Zhong Ruhuang knew that her mother, the queen, wanted to compensate her, she would probably say directly: Mother, I am short of money, please just give me more money.

As the saying goes, nothing can be achieved without money.

Even a penny can stump a heroine.

What's more, Zhong Ruhuang has always lived a miserable life.

From childhood to adulthood, she has been surviving on the meager salary of a princess, and she does not even have any private property.

Other princesses have subsidies from their biological fathers, but she does not have any subsidies from her father.

Moreover, her biological father was just an ordinary palace man, he had no family, and was an orphan.

If it weren't for the fact that her salary as an imperial princess increased as she aged, and if it weren't for the fact that the Ministry of Internal Affairs made her four new sets of clothes every month, she wouldn't have even had a decent piece of clothing.

Even so, the interpersonal relationships between the princesses and the birthday gifts given to the elders in the harem all cost money.

To be honest, Zhong Ruhuang's private money totaled less than 10,000 taels, and it was all saved by her frugal life.

This was because in the palace, all food and drink expenses were covered by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, otherwise she might not have been able to save even this little bit of money.

So Zhong Ruhuang is really short of money.

Moreover, she was about to get married, and after that, she would have to support a family.

It also takes money to support a family.

As a woman who is superior to others, it would be shameful for her to ask her husband for money.

By then, it will be a huge sum of money to support the family.

Emperor Showa couldn't think of how to compensate Zhong Ruhuang, so he turned and looked at his chief eunuch, Hou Songlin.

"Tell me, how can I compensate Lao Wu?"

She admitted that she was soft-hearted towards Xiao Jin and was willing to clean up the mess for her.

Hou Songlin thought for a moment after hearing Emperor Zhaohe's question, and then said tactfully, "Your Majesty, the Fifth Princess does not have any subsidy from her father."

The other princesses all have fathers. Even the eldest princess Zhong Sihuang and the fourth princess Zhong Chenhuang, who did not have any subsidies from their fathers, had subsidies from their grandmother, Grand Tutor Jin, and Emperor Showa also gave them subsidies from time to time.

As the fifth princess, she had no subsidies from her father or her father's clan, and her life was very tight.

When Emperor Zhaohe heard Hou Songlin's words, he was stunned for a moment, then he understood and couldn't help but sigh.

"I ignored her."

The fifth child was not her favorite, so she didn't pay much attention to her. It was good enough that she could check on her every month.

So I didn't care much about her situation.

"I forgot that this child also has no father."

"How about this, you go to my private storehouse and pick out some gold and silver ornaments, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, the four treasures of the study, plus two hundred thousand taels of silver notes, and send them to Lao Wu. Tell her that her handwriting has been good recently and I am very satisfied with it, so I will give it to her as a reward."

Emperor Showa is worthy of being an empress. She can tell lies at will. She can even use Zhong Ruhuang's ordinary handwriting as an excuse.

The corner of Hou Songlin's mouth twitched, and he went downstairs to choose a reward for Zhong Ruhuang.

Soon, she selected the rewards, all of which were practical things that could be used to show off.

Zhong Ruhuang, who had just returned from the Qinshufang, received a reward from her mother, the Queen.

She thanked Emperor Showa for the reward, and watched Hou Songlin leave before going into her own room. Looking at the rewards on the table, there was a hint of amusement on her face.

She was not stupid and understood that this was a reward from Emperor Showa on behalf of Xiao Jinshi.

The purpose was to make her stop bothering with Xiao Jin.

Zhong Ruhuang naturally wouldn't bother with Xiao Jin, she just hoped that he wouldn't cheat her again.

If she continues to do such tricks, her sisters will regard her as a thorn in their side.
