After rebirth, I don’t want to be a Mary Sue heroine anymore!

I smiled, but I felt disgusted with him in my heart. I am rich, but my money has nothing to do with him. He is asking about my money before we even get married.

If I marry him, won't he spend all my money?

I also started to wipe my tears at this time, and then said with a trembling voice: "Empress Li, logically speaking, we are all going to become a family. Naturally, there are some things that I must help with.

But, but recently there is really no way to help.

Over the years, I have been able to live a comfortable life thanks to my parents' care and support, but I don't have any great ability to do anything.

My father has been having some problems lately, so I gave him all the money I had. I really don't have much money left.

It's not that I don't want to help, but I really have no other choice."

Li Jing's face looked bad, but because of his face, he naturally couldn't turn his face away in front of me.

Li Jing spent a few minutes to sort out her emotions, and she asked with a hint of doubt: "But what happened at home?

But I have never heard of anything happening with your father?

Qingqing, please don't get me wrong, I'm just thinking about what would happen if something went wrong at home.

Qingqing, you can tell me, I can see if I can help your family. After all, we are all family, and we should help if there is anything we need."

I knew the reason for this, and I immediately lowered my head and secretly wiped my tears with a handkerchief. Li Jing immediately patted my hand to comfort me.

I sobbed for a while, then stopped and said, "It's not a big deal. Father was very happy to know that the fifth prince and I were going to get married.

Your Majesty also knows that there are always people in the court who are unhappy with the relationship between me and the Fifth Prince.

People outside said that the fifth prince's mother's family was of low status and were sarcastic about his father.

The father naturally did not want the fifth prince and his daughter to be humiliated, so he gave gifts to those ministers who did not support the fifth prince.

At that time, my father taught me: Marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog. Since I married the fifth prince, I should get through the difficulties with him.

My father used his own property and the money of the common people to help the fifth prince to build relationships."

I watched Li Jing's expression change from unhappiness to joy and then to doubt, and I knew I had succeeded.

Li Jing is a suspicious person by nature, so naturally he wouldn't believe what I said and would send someone to investigate secretly.

Li Jing immediately said with joy: "I didn't make a mistake in choosing you. From now on, we are on the same boat, so we must advance and retreat together.

It is a blessing for my son that Qingqing has realized this so early.

Qingqing, I believe that as long as we work hard together, you will become the queen of the Dayun Dynasty in the future.

I have been talking to you for such a long time now. Go and have a rest. If you need anything, tell Henger and he will prepare it for you. "

I nodded and immediately left.

After I went out, Luo Qingqing winked at me and asked: How's the situation? Is it done?

I nodded, and Luo Qingqing naturally understood what I meant.

We both sat quietly without making any sound.

We all know clearly that Li Jing will not let us go easily, nor will he just listen to my one-sided story. Naturally, he will ask Luo Qingqing again.

Sure enough, as soon as I sat down and ate an orange, someone around Li Jing came out and asked Luo Qingqing to go in.

Luo Qingqing gave me a reassuring look, and I immediately felt relieved.

In Luo Qingqing's current situation, she knew that she had no ability to resist and could only be slaughtered.

Luo Qingqing didn't have much money to begin with, and she married Wen Yiheng as a concubine.

This meant that Luo Qingqing was destined to be inferior to me. Li Jing didn't like her, and Wen Yiheng's love for her was not so pure.

Luo Qingqing knew that if she didn't cooperate with me, we would probably be wiped out by Wen Yiheng and his mother.

Luo Qingqing entered the room soon. Li Jing in the room had already calmed down.

Li Jing put on a kind look, completely different from her previous vicious look when she did bad things.

Li Jing looked at Luo Qingqing, and the disgust on his face had long disappeared. He immediately pulled Luo Qingqing to his side and said some personal words.

Although Li Jing spoke in private, everyone could hear the threat in his words.

Li Jing first took Luo Qingqing's hand and said to her in a gentle voice: "I was not satisfied with you at first because I was afraid that Qingqing would be unhappy with your existence. Just now, I told Qingqing that I would treat you well in the future.

This palace knows how cruel the struggle is in the deep palace. Especially if a person of low status wants to turn things around in the deep palace, he must learn to protect himself.

You and Luo Qingqing, I am more optimistic about you. Luo Qingqing's family power will become a stumbling block in your palace fighting in the future. I have just made an agreement with Qingqing that I will not embarrass you in the future.

How far you can go from now on depends entirely on yourself."

Luo Qingqing also forced out a suitable smile at this time, and said to Li Jing neither servile nor overbearing: "Thank you for your kindness, Concubine Li. I will definitely repay your kindness in the future."

Li Jing looked at Luo Qingqing's face full of gratitude and knew that his plan was one step closer.

Li Jing ordered the servants to bring tea, and said to Luo Qingqing, "This is the tea distributed by the palace this year. I heard that it costs ten thousand taels of gold to buy a can of tea.

Qingqing, try it and see how it tastes.

What’s the difference between it and ordinary tea leaves?”

Luo Qingqing stared at the cup of tea, looking at Li Jing's dagger-like smile, she didn't want to drink it at first, but now she had to drink it.

Luo Qingqing picked up the tea with trembling hands and tasted it carefully, then said earnestly: "This tea is indeed good tea, it has a lot more sweetness than other teas, and look at the brewed tea leaves, they are the same as fresh tea leaves.

It is indeed a good tea worth so much money. However, such expensive tea should be kept for yourself.

I am not worthy of drinking this tea."

Li Jing was very satisfied with Luo Qingqing's performance. Being able to taste it proved that Luo Qingqing was knowledgeable and experienced.

Luo Qingqing's ability to humble herself naturally fits Li Jing's guess.

Li Jing shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter whether we are compatible or not. We are a family from now on. We are grasshoppers in the same boat.

However, the emperor only rewards this tea to the women in the palace and not to his ministers.

Qingqing, you are such a smart girl. You will definitely drink this tea in the future."

Luo Qingqing naturally understood what Li Jing meant, which was to imply that Luo Qingqing should spare no effort to help Wen Yiheng win the throne.

Luo Qingqing naturally responded in a dignified manner: "Your Highness, I understand what you mean. From now on, the Fifth Prince will be your heaven, and I will naturally help him with all my strength."

Li Jing immediately changed his expression to one of tears before speaking, and said to Luo Qingqing: "Qingqing, I know you are sensible.

I need your help right now. I know it’s abrupt to say this now, but I have no other choice.”

Luo Qingqing immediately took out a handkerchief and handed it to Li Jing, then said anxiously: "My queen, please don't cry first, if you need any help from me, just ask.

If I can help, I will. Besides, we will soon become a family, so there is nothing abrupt about it. "

When Li Jing heard Luo Qingqing's words, he stopped pretending.

Li Jing immediately said to Luo Qingqing with full energy: "As the fifth son of the emperor, Heng'er has rarely received the emperor's attention since he was a child.

I know that most of this is because of my low status.

After I gave birth to Heng'er, the Emperor rarely came to my palace.

I thought that there would be no chance for Heng'er to inherit this kingdom in this lifetime.

But recently this opportunity has come. You see these children, the emperor doesn't like them very much, which means everyone has the opportunity to compete for the position of crown prince.

The previous princes, their mothers' clans were all quite powerful, so I naturally knew that I had no chance.

But I recently discovered that other princes are unable to shoulder this burden.

The eldest prince had no interest in state affairs, and Wen Yifeng had been deposed from the throne.

The third prince has become disabled. The fourth prince is still in Jiangnan, just wanting to travel around.

Isn't this Heng'er's chance? The emperor has taken a liking to Heng'er recently."

After saying these words, Li Jing paused for a moment, wanting to know Luo Qingqing's reaction.

Luo Qingqing immediately took Li Jing's hand and said, "At present, it seems that what you said is right. However, the Fifth Prince has been highly valued recently. Logically speaking, he will not encounter any difficulties."

Li Jing sighed and said: "Yes, Heng'er is now a person valued by the emperor, so logically speaking, he won't encounter any trouble.

But I am the biggest trouble. My mother's family has no power, but those princes are powerful and loyal.

Now in the court, many ministers are very opposed to Heng'er. Whenever Heng'er puts forward some constructive suggestions, they will come to make a comment.

Under such circumstances, Heng'er had no one in the court to support him, and he might be easily brought down by others in the future.

By then we will be like fish on the chopping board, at the mercy of others.

I have thought of a good idea.

The reason why other princes can continue to do this is that their mother's families are powerful, and they want to get a share of the pie after the prince in their team ascends the throne.

If I use money to bribe them now, they will certainly work for me.

In this world, what we need most is money!"

I have to say that Li Jing really understands people's hearts and knows what things are most tempting to others.

Luo Qingqing quickly echoed beside her: "Your Majesty is really wise, this is indeed a very useful method. Then we can start to implement it quickly."

Li Jing shook his head and said, "Qingqing, it's easy to think, but it's hard to implement. Everyone knows that I have been living in seclusion in the harem for these years.

The emperor has given me few rewards. You see, I have to grow vegetables to make a living in my yard.

Under this circumstance, I really don't have that much money to help Heng'er.

If those people want to support Heng'er, I need to give them silver continuously, but I don't have much silver.

I'm afraid, I'm afraid I need your help, Qingqing."

Luo Qingqing knew that Li Jing would definitely ask her, so she naturally prepared an answer.

Luo Qingqing immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, this matter concerns the future glory and wealth of this minister, so I will naturally spare no effort to help the Fifth Prince.

But, but these few days, Lord Luo also came to me, saying that he was in urgent need of money.

It is thanks to Lord Luo's care that I have been able to grow up healthily in the Prime Minister's Mansion over the years.

Lord Luo will naturally be given what he needs. But don't worry, Madam.

Lord Luo naturally knew that he and the Fifth Prince were now in the same boat.

When Lord Luo took the money, he naturally told me that the money was used to help the Fifth Prince to build relationships.

This coincides with your idea, madam. Lord Luo even paid a lot of money to subsidize it.

Your Majesty, there is no need to worry too much. I believe that Lord Luo will definitely get it done."

Li Jing didn't expect that Luo Qingqing's words were exactly the same as mine. Now she felt that all the betrothal gifts she had given out were completely wasted.

Li Jing began to ask tentatively again: "Qingqing, what about the betrothal gift? It is impossible that the betrothal gift has also been given out."

Luo Qingqing immediately raised her head and nodded, saying: "I thought that since this is all for the good of the Fifth Prince, and Lord Luo also came to see me with a worried look on his face.

So I gave all my betrothal gifts to Lord Luo.

Your Majesty, I know this is a bit offensive, but the situation is urgent and I have to do this.

If your Majesty wants to punish me, just let me know. I will accept it.

It’s also my fault that I don’t save money normally, otherwise I wouldn’t have caused you so much worry.”

Li Jing waved his hands and said: "This is all for Heng'er's good, why punish you? Your family supports Heng'er, that's good.

Then I will think of a solution. It is getting late, Qingqing must be getting impatient, Qingqing you should go back soon too."

Luo Qingqing nodded and immediately said: "Your Majesty, I will take my leave first. Your Majesty is just too worried about this matter. It's okay, Master Luo is here."

Li Jing nodded, then let Luo Qingqing go.

Luo Qingqing walked out of Li Jing's room and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

When I saw Luo Qingqing come out without any sign of fatigue on her face, I knew that this matter had naturally come to a successful conclusion.

Luo Qingqing and I left in a carriage.

After we left, Li Jing immediately smashed the cup next to him.
