Weak Concubine [Qing Wear + Red House]

"The slave kowtows to the emperor at a young age, long live the emperor, long live long live!"

"rise!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Your age, do you know why I announce you?"

Kangxi stared at Nian Xialing with a cold face. During this period of time, a lot of corrupt officials were dealt with. Unexpectedly, another big fish appeared today, and the dowry for his daughter was more than two million taels. Damn it!

If it wasn't for the sake of the fourth child, he should have been convicted yesterday.

Nian Xialing hesitated for a moment: "The servant guessed, but it was because of the dowry of the little girl?"

"Hmph, now that you know, tell me, how much money did you spend on your daughter's dowry?"

Age is a little ashamed:

"Back to the emperor, except for the big ones, the slaves only gave 5 taels of silver bills to the bottom of the box."

"Oh? More than that? According to me, the dowry alone is more than 5 taels. Good guy, this dowry is only two points lower than the queen's. You are really capable!"

"The emperor praised it absurdly. It's not the slave who has the ability, it's the slave's wife who has the ability."

"Oh, you still think I praised you, so tell me how your wife is capable!" Kangxi sneered.

Nian Xia knew that the emperor would intervene, and she also stopped Madam, but Madam said that her dowry would have been given to her daughter, the amount was not small, and sooner or later it would attract people's attention.

In the future, we will be in contact again. Is it possible that the daughter will live secretly for the rest of her life just because she is afraid of people's eyes?

Rather than doing this, it's better to show once is enough, no matter how lavish Jinyao is in the future, others will not use this as an issue, and it will make her live more comfortably after marriage.

Moreover, his appointment has been dragged on for more than a month, and he should have come down long ago. It was the emperor who said that Duoqing let him marry his daughter in Beijing. be opposed to.

Now that the emperor asked him, he was naturally prepared.

"Your majesty, there are indeed only so many slaves to marry their daughters. There are many slaves. Each daughter is married according to the family's family rules. 5 taels for prostitute daughters and [-] taels for concubine daughters. No matter how many slaves you can afford .

The little girl Jinyao can have so many dowries, it is entirely due to her mother-in-law who has managed her dowry over the years. She has been preparing since she was born, and has accumulated so much now. Dowry, except for some shop sales. "

"Oh?"

Kangxi obviously didn't expect this. When he heard that the dowry of Nian's daughter was scary, he first thought of Nian Xialing's greed for ink. Now that he heard that it was his wife's dowry, so much silver was managed by a woman in the inner house. This point remains to be seen. Discuss, Kangxi doesn't really believe it.

"Your servant dare not speak nonsense. The emperor announced that your servant was entering the palace, and Madam Jia asked the servants in the mansion to bring some of her account books. If the emperor does not believe you, you can ask someone to check it! Of course, please rest assured, the property of Mrs. slave All of them have paid their taxes properly, and this slave knows a thing or two."

Kangxi stared at Nian Yaling, and saw that his expression was calm, either he was relying on something, or it was the truth.

"Submit the account book!"

The age is a bit embarrassing:

"Back to the emperor, there are quite a lot of account books, and now they are placed on the carriage, parked outside the palace, and the emperor asked someone to pull them in."

Kangxi agreed, Liang Jiugong hurriedly called the guards to pull the account books, and when Kangxi saw the account books that were carried in and piled up half the wall, he was speechless.

There are so many books, old and new, so they can't be made in a short time, but the authenticity is believable, so he really became interested, wanting to know how much property the Jia family has and how to manage the money. Could it be that she colluded with the merchants and took profits from the people?

This really needs to be checked.

"You go back first. I will ask the household department to check the accounts. If, as you said, it is indeed your wife's dowry, then it has nothing to do with you."

"The slave obeys the order, it's just..."

"What? What else can I say?"

Nian Yaling salivated:

"It's just the emperor, can you ask someone to return the account book intact after checking it? The slave lady ordered and instructed the slave when he took it away. There is only one set of account books and there is no backup. If you can't return them in full, it will be troublesome in the future. "

The emperor could understand this, and he nodded in agreement without blaming him.

After leaving the palace, the sweat on Nian Yaling's back almost wetted his clothes, and after wiping off the sweat, he said to Nian Gengyao who came over on purpose:

"I did as your mother said, and the result will not be known until the emperor checks the accounts. Go and get your value."

Nian Gengyao nodded:

"Then dad, go back and be careful."

"Do not worry."

The father and son separated, one went back to the bodyguard to wait for his shift, and the other went out of the palace to go back to the mansion.

So the fourth master, who had just sat in the empress dowager's palace for a while, was brought back to Qianqing palace.

Fourth Master was speechless when he saw the pile of account books in front of him. What was even more speechless was that he had three days of marriage leave, and now he was assigned a task on the first day to check the accounts of the new "mother-in-law".

Kangxi thought it was wrong too:

"I believe in you and Fujin, but although the dowry belongs to her, she didn't buy it. Since Nian Xialing said it was her wife's dowry, then of course I have to check it out and give the other courtiers an explanation and return it to him." Innocent. You don’t need to check it yourself, just ask a few household officials to check it.” Kangxi didn’t know that he would be slapped in the face for his words in the future.

"My son obeys the order!"

What can Yinzhen do? He already knew how many pairs of eyes were staring at him in the dark, and how he could avoid it. The auditees had to choose those who were experienced and clean.

There is no shortage of well-informed people in the palace. Nian Xialing was called into the palace on the front foot, and Yinzhen was called away on the back foot. Everyone knew why, and looked at Jinyao in a different way.

Jinyao seemed to be unable to feel it, and she could answer any question calmly, but Concubine Ma Jia, who was a little uncomfortable with it, took the lead and said:

"I heard that Nian's wedding is very beautiful, and the dowry is even richer than that of the princess and princess. Mr. Nian is really a proper official!"

"Returning to the empress, the dowry is just a manifestation of parents' love for their daughter, and it has nothing to do with it. As for my Ama being an official, Jinyao, a girl in the boudoir, doesn't know." Jinyao said softly.

The sign "The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics" is still standing there

Concubine Rong touched a soft nail, and her face became even more ugly:

"Hmph, how could you not be clear? You have enjoyed material things beyond what your ama has offered you. It's not because your ama has the ability."

Jin Yao looked at Concubine Rong suspiciously.

Concubine Rong looked at her coldly:

"Why do you look at Bengong like this and don't answer?"

"Returning to the empress, the concubine just doesn't understand why the empress looks down on the inner house woman."

"You..." Concubine Rong looked at the concubines on the left and right, as well as the empress dowager and the noble concubine beside her, and said angrily:

"Why did I ever say that I look down on women in the back house?" Aren't the concubines in the palace also women in the back house, how dare she say that she doesn't look down on them.

Jin Yao tilted her head and looked at her suspiciously:

"Then why does the empress think that everything the concubine enjoyed when she was in her natal family was due to her father, not her mother who mastered the mean?

The concubine's mother came from the Duke Rong's mansion, and her grandmother and great-grandmother came from everyone.

When the concubine's mother got married back then, she also had a lot of red makeup. After marrying into the Nian's family with her grandmother and great-grandmother and a large sum of dowry from the Rongguo Duke's mansion, although she was a housewife, she had a lot of troubles in her chest and managed the dowry industry very well. Not only let me, but also make other brothers and sisters well-clothed and well-fed, isn't it all her hard work? "

"That's very true. A housewife is no less capable than a man who works outside. It's not so easy to take care of a large family and walk with relatives." The queen mother agreed.

"What the queen mother said is true, but Mrs. Jia is indeed capable. I heard that even the queen mother praised her back then?" Concubine Hui reminded.She was entrusted by her cousin, Mrs. Fucha, to help take care of her in-laws' daughter.

"Oh? Is there such a thing? The Jia family comes from Rongguo Duke's mansion. Could it be Jia Daishan's eldest daughter?"

Someone reminded the Empress Dowager that she also had an impression. After all, it happened more than 30 years ago. How could she remember so clearly after going through so much every day.

"It's her!"

"So you are that girl's daughter, no wonder you are so handsome!" Looking at Jinyao again, her eyes became more kind.

Jin Yao said respectfully:

"Back to the queen mother, the slave's mother is indeed the eldest daughter of my grandfather, thank you for the love of the queen mother, I am ashamed to be a slave."

The Queen Mother nodded:

"You can be regarded as a serious daughter-in-law, so you don't need to be so modest, just remember to respect Fujin Fujin on weekdays."

"Yes, my daughter-in-law obeys the order!" The queen mother said what she said, so it's possible that she could still argue with her.

Concubine Yi smiled and pulled Jinyao over:

"I just said, why did we hit it off so much? It turned out to be her daughter. Back then, I met your mother a few times."

They almost entered the palace together, can they not be familiar with each other?

Concubine Tong regarded herself as a spectator, she didn't speak, she just smiled and watched the tricks of the few people coming and going, and she admired Jin Yao who handled it with ease in her heart.

And Concubine De, like an invisible person, neither helped Jinyao to smooth things over, nor followed her to mock her, like an irrelevant person, making several old opponents secretly laugh.

The two did not have lunch in the palace, and they left the palace and returned home at 10:30.

After getting into the carriage, the tense Jinyao finally lost all strength, and collapsed on the armchair not wanting to say a word.

Yin Zhen felt distressed when he saw it:

"Did someone find fault with you after Master left?"

"It's Concubine Rong, but it's okay. I was rescued by Concubine Hui and Concubine Yi, and I didn't suffer much. Besides, I'm not a fool."

Rescued by Concubine Hui and Concubine Yi?What about my own mother, Concubine De?

Yinzhen's heart became colder, and he gently hugged the tired Jinyao into his arms and leaned against her:

"Concubine Rong's natal family has a very proud relative who was confiscated by Huang Ama a few days ago and demoted to slavery."

Jinyao understands:

"No wonder she always wants to catch my father's words, but even if my father is really wrong, is it possible that her relative can be rehabilitated?"

"Hey! So you don't care about her, you are a fool. Those above the concubine position are all princes and concubines, and the master can only listen to them. It is enough to get by on the big face, but you don't need to pay more attention to those below the concubine. "Jinyao's status is the same as that of a concubine.

Jinyao hummed a few times to express that she heard it.

This is the advantage of marrying an acquaintance. You don't need to pretend hard, and you can show your personality from time to time, so as not to be aggrieved.

She is really not afraid of the concubines and people in the mansion, it's just that she has moved from one battlefield to another, so if she doesn't provoke herself, she will be nice to me, if someone provokes herself, she will not be afraid.

It was Yinzhen who felt so distressed when she saw her, his Jin'er should live as she wanted, but he made her feel wronged.

Jinyao still doesn't know what's going on in Yinzhen's heart, otherwise she will be confused.

She can get to where she is today, dare to say that it has nothing to do with his fourth master?

Now that I have participated in it, why do I feel distressed now? I really feel sorry for finding a good family for her back then.

A woman's heart is a needle in the sea, and a man's heart is not much to give way to, it's contradictory.

"I'm going to offer tea to Fujin when I get back home?"
