The princes were also very curious about Xinlan. They all wanted to know what the fourth sister-in-law was like. Most importantly, the eldest prince revealed that the current fourth sister-in-law was the sweetheart of the fourth brother.

The story about Yinzhen and Xinlan has been told by the eldest prince to his younger brothers.

These younger brothers could never have imagined that their fourth brother would one day fall in love with someone at first sight, not to mention that the other person was just a slave at the time.

The fourth sister-in-law must be very outstanding, otherwise how could she have charmed their invincible fourth brother.

When Xinlan married into the Fourth Prince's residence, all the princes had already thought about how to make trouble in the bridal chamber. However, before they could do anything, they were shocked by Xinlan's 220-load dowry.

Xinlan originally meant to bring the same 120 loads of dowry as the first wife, Irgen Gioro. However, not only her family members but also Yinzhen objected.

In Yinzhen's words -

"These dowries were prepared for you by your parents with great effort. They are their love. You don't have to compromise yourself just for some useless rule."

Yinzhen's idea was very direct. He married Xinlan not to let her suffer by marrying him. Besides, the dowry of a prince's wife was originally based on the family's own strength.

Some ladies don't have the strength to do so, so naturally they prepare less. Xinlan does have the strength, so naturally she prepares more. What's wrong with that?

Since Yinzhen said so, Xinlan naturally would not continue to abide by those rules. Besides, Emperor Kangxi would not care about the dowry of a prince's wife. It would just be a comparison between wives.

But Yinzhen has never been low-key over the years. As for money, even Emperor Kangxi knew that Yinzhen was rich.

Xinlan has a strong ability to make money. After all, all of this is done with the data analysis of the butler system, and there are puppets running around, so Xinlan doesn't have to worry about anything at all.

Yinzhen was also sensible. After he made money from his industry, he would make tributes to Emperor Kangxi's private treasury every year. Not only that, he also donated a lot to the national treasury every year.

It is no exaggeration to say that Yinzhen's donation made the Ministry of Revenue smile every day. If it were not for Yinzhen's generosity, many of their officials would not be able to pay their salaries.

Emperor Kangxi was obsessed with alchemy and built a Taoist temple for Taoists. That was not all. Emperor Kangxi himself also liked to make private visits. But they knew their own business. Going out meant spending money endlessly. They couldn't let the emperor have no money to spend, right?

What's more, Emperor Kangxi was a generous man even though he was poor. Whenever an official borrowed money from the national treasury, he would just give an IOU and the matter was settled. It seemed natural not to pay back the money. Even the eldest prince and his men borrowed money from the national treasury.

Although Yinzhen was not in the court, everyone in the court was benefited by Yinzhen's favor.

Yinzhen's wealth was obvious to all, and Emperor Kangxi was also very lenient in giving money to others. In front of Yinzhen, he never said that Yinzhen was competing with the people for profit, and he never accepted less money from Yinzhen as a tribute.

Therefore, the betrothal gift given by Yinzhen was more than that of other princes, and Xinlan naturally brought in more dowry. The first wife Irgen Gioro and others would definitely not be jealous because Xinlan brought a lot of dowry, after all, Xinlan had the ability to do so.

The most painful thing in the world is to compare with others.
