"You come to my place every day, aren't you afraid of being caught? Besides, you can't press the acupoints of the maid every day."

"Wife, I will come over when I have time. If I don't have time, I will let you know when I don't come over."

"You really don't have to come here every day. I get nervous every time you come, afraid that someone will find out."

"It's okay, my original body's martial arts skills are very high, there is no problem at all.

Wife, I want to marry you as soon as possible. After you marry me, we will be like in our previous life and listen to you in everything.

I started packing my things yesterday to see what kind of betrothal gifts I could give you. I can also ask for more from my father."

"Don't take your own. When we get married, the betrothal gift must be whatever the royal family pays. It can't be too much. I have quite a bit of dowry on my side, too. There's no way we can surpass the Crown Prince."

"It's okay, I just have this problem. Besides, I will only marry you in this life, not like others who marry so many.

If I ask for less, we'll both be at a loss. If you have that thing, I'll give it to you when you get it. Don't let them get it for free."

"Your idea..."

"Am I right?"

“Very true.”

"By the way, how much was the Crown Princess's dowry? I need to collect it, but it can't exceed hers."

"Let me think...it seems to be one hundred and ninety-eight."

"Then let's have two fewer than her, and go for one hundred and ninety-six. We have to keep it going smoothly."

"Wife, I'll give you some more in private for your makeup."

"No need, I already have some on hand, plus the rewards from the Emperor and the Queen Mother.

My father also gave me my mother's dowry, so it was quite a lot, with 30,000 taels of silver notes alone.

These do not include my dowry and the betrothal gifts you will give me when the time comes, so you don’t have to give them to me privately.”

"Okay, let me see your betrothal gift first. If it's missing, I'll make up for it."

"Well, I think there should be a lot more. Judging from how much the Duke dotes on his daughter, the dowry must be quite large."

"That's okay. If there are too many, we can just load two loads into the space of one."

"That's a good idea. Okay, let's stop thinking about it and go to bed. I'm already sleepy."

"Um"

When Qin Minghao heard his wife say she was sleepy, he stopped bothering her and fell asleep while hugging her.

When Xie Yun got up the next morning, Qin Minghao was no longer there. The bed next to her was already cold, so he must have been gone for a while.

After Xie Yun was dressed up by the maid, she started to have breakfast.

She didn't need to pay her respects today, so she should just look at the account book to make sure she knew what she had.

Qin Minghao got up early in the morning and returned to the palace. After washing, changing clothes, having breakfast, he went to court.

When he arrived at the hall, his royal brothers all came over to congratulate him. After all, none of these princes regarded him as a competitor.

In this era that values ​​having many children, he is destined to have few children because of his illness. How many children can a woman give birth to for him?

His father had so many concubines but only gave birth to thirteen sons. Among all the princes, the crown prince had the most sons, four. They all had many wives and concubines, and no one was better than him.

Qin Minghao accepted all the congratulations from his brothers. He was really happy.

After the morning court session, he followed the emperor to the imperial study. The emperor didn't say anything when he saw him following behind him.

After all, the emperor also knew that Qin Minghao came to follow him because of his marriage. Normally, he would not come unless he was asked.

When they arrived at the imperial study, the emperor sat down and asked Qin Minghao without reading the memorial first.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Father, your son would like to ask how much the betrothal gift is."

The emperor was thinking in his heart, no matter what he was thinking about, he knew it was about marriage.

“Follow the normal rules”

"Father, I think you should give more."

When the emperor heard this, he looked at Qin Minghao and asked.

"Give me a reason. If it makes sense, I'll agree to it."

"You are aware of my illness, Father. I will only marry Xie Yun in this lifetime. My other brothers all have many wives and concubines. They have married so many, and each of them has given a huge betrothal gift.

I can only marry this one in my lifetime, shouldn't the emperor compensate me for the betrothal gifts?"

When the emperor heard what Qin Minghao said, it sounded like it was true. His other sons all married so many girls, and he had paid a lot for the betrothal gifts alone.

This son cannot marry so many women due to illness, so it is understandable that he wants to get it back from the betrothal gifts.

It's pitiful that he can only be with one woman for his whole life. It would be fine if the woman could give birth to a few more children for him, but it would be even more pitiful if she could only give birth to one or two.

Think about those women whose figures become out of shape after giving birth to so many children. My son will have to spend his whole life with a woman like that. Alas, I should compensate him in other ways.

"I promise you that I will give all the betrothal gifts to the principal wife, concubines, and regulated concubines at once."

"Thank you, Father!"

"Golden Blessing"

When Jin Fu heard the emperor calling him, he hurried in.

"The slave is here"

"Go and tell them to give all the betrothal gifts to Prince Jing. You will personally supervise it and choose the best ones."

"I obey your command."

"Also, pack up all of Prince Jing's mother's things and send them to Prince Jing's mansion.

Then pick out some better ones from my private storehouse and bring them back to Prince Jing."

"I obey your command."

Jin Fu thought to himself that the emperor was really good to Prince Jing and had rewarded him with so many things.

Other princes did not have this treatment, but when he thought of the disease that Prince Jing had, he felt that he looked pitiful, let alone the emperor's mood.

Prince Jing's lifespan due to this disease is worse than that of the eunuchs. Even if they don't have that part, they can still touch women.

Prince Jing does have that part, but it's useless. He can't even touch a woman. Alas, he should pick more good ones. Poor guy.

Qin Minghao didn't care what others thought. Anyway, his wife was here and he could be with her. The right thing to do was to bring back some more things for her.

So when Qin Minghao left the palace this time, he was followed by several carriages, all loaded with large boxes.

He returned to Prince Jing's Mansion in a swaggering manner. These were all his mother's things, and there were two more that were extra gifts from the emperor.

After returning to the mansion, Qin Minghao asked the housekeeper to store all the items separately and gave him a separate account book.

He took two more wooden boxes back to the study. In one box were the deeds to the farmland and shops given to him by the emperor, and in the other box were the deeds to the farmland and shops left by his mother.

He wanted to sort out all these things before his wife got married, so that she could take over directly after marriage and save her a lot of trouble.
