Chapter 576 Who should I sleep with?
Prince Xiong was almost dead with grievance. At that time
, he really thought that he could win. But later he realized that his idea was too simple.
He has never been the winner!
But until now, he doesn't know where he lost!
"This is all Nuannuan's fault!" Prince Xiong looked up and said righteously: "Father, I was extremely opposed to it at the beginning. It was Nuannuan who kept saying that we can definitely win, absolutely win! Nuannuan is also thinking about the treasury of our country. She wants to help you make money!"
Prince Xiong spoke seriously.
The emperor sneered: "What I want is not the process, but the result! Where do you think these six million taels of silver will come from?"
The emperor's heart was bleeding. When he heard the news, he wanted to run to Daqian Kingdom and strangle this prince who was more likely to cause trouble than to do anything.
How much is the annual treasury income of their country? Not enough for six million taels, not enough for two years, but this wasteful thing lost six million in two rounds!
"Father, I have thought about it!" When it comes to how to solve the problem of six million taels of silver, Prince Xiong straightened his back a lot, and he talked about the mine.
The emperor was silent and did not yell at him immediately.
"Are you saying that Chu Jianghuai and the little princess of Daqian Kingdom are together?"
This place is not close to Daqian Kingdom, but the emperor has also collected news there. He knows that the little princess in Prince Yi's mansion is the most valued child of the emperor of Daqian Kingdom!
"Father, the relationship between my fourth brother and Daqian is unclear! I feel that his heart is not in our country at all!"
"When we made the bet, my fourth brother was also fanning the flames and never reminded me that this was all Daqian's plan!"
The emperor sat down and stretched out his hand to take a sip of tea, only to see that the teacup and other things had been broken long ago! Fortunately, the eunuch beside him was smart and hurried outside to bring tea in.
The emperor's hands tapped the table unconsciously. After a long while, he said, "Even if the little princess is in trouble, the emperor of Daqian will definitely not let go of five million taels of silver!"
That is not a small number. Even the tax revenue of Daqian in two years may not leave five million taels.
Although the natural environment there is better than his own, they are also short of money.
"Without the title deed, father, there is no need for us to acknowledge it!"
"That Prince Yi is not an easy man to talk to. I have already arranged for Princess Cero to marry Yuan Hongxuan. Yuan Hongxuan also has the help of Prince Jiuxian. As long as we support him to take the throne, the matter of these millions of taels of silver will be over!"
Prince Xiong Da's plan was good. The emperor looked at him coldly, and finally snorted.
He was also taken away.
Prince Xiong Da was uneasy. In the past, his father was always polite to his mother. This was the first time he was merciless.
Did the emperor know about that?
When Prince Xiong Da went out, he was still limping.
He called the eunuch beside the emperor: "Xiao Yuzi, has anyone said anything in front of the emperor?"
The eunuch shook his head: "Your Highness, no one has said anything yet!"
"Did Chu Jianghuai send a secret letter to the emperor?"
The eldest prince Xiong was still worried. Xiao Yuzi said: "This, I don't know either."
The eldest prince Xiong stuffed a banknote to Xiao Yuzi, and Xiao Yuzi smiled and said: "The emperor did receive two secret letters, but I don't know who wrote them!"
"Your Highness, you also know the emperor's temper. I dare not get too close, but after reading the letter, the emperor was very angry!"
The eldest prince Xiong... Two secret letters? Were they all written by Chu Jianghuai, or by someone else?
The eldest prince Xiong suddenly thought of someone, turned around and left, walking hurriedly.
After returning to the prince's mansion, he went directly to the dungeon.
"You bastard! Did you write a letter to our father?"
The eldest prince Xiong kicked open the prison door, took a few quick steps, grabbed Princess Nuannuan's clothes, raised his big hand like a palm-leaf fan, and slapped her in the face.
Princess Nuannuan was dizzy. After arriving in the territory of the Bear Country, the people below did not change her into warm clothes. Princess Nuannuan started to have a fever as soon as she arrived. Now she was dizzy and could pass out at any time.
Suddenly she was beaten again, and Princess Nuannuan became even more dizzy.
"You bastard! Speak, speak!"
Looking at the red-eyed and ferocious-looking eldest prince Xiong, Princess Nuannuan couldn't help but curl her lips and smile.
She almost passed out in pain just by moving the corner of her lips.
Her face must be swollen again.
When Prince Xiong saw the smile in her eyes, he was furious. He clenched his fist like an iron hammer and hit Princess Nuannuan in the stomach.
With a puff, Princess Nuannuan spat out a mouthful of blood.
Prince Xiong was unable to dodge, and the full mouthful of blood sprayed all over his face and body.
Prince Xiong's face turned black, and he raised his hand and slapped Princess Nuannuan in the face several times.
"You bastard! If I had known this, I should have strangled you to death!"
Princess Nuannuan smiled bitterly, and she raised her finger with difficulty and pointed at her throat, her eyes full of mockery.
Prince Xiong didn't understand at first, but when he saw that Princess Nuannuan had been silent, he remembered something.
This bastard! How could he forget that he had poisoned her throat a long time ago.
In addition, the tendons of her hands were cut.
At that time, Prince Xiong was worried that Princess Nuannuan would talk nonsense. Now that it was time for her to speak, Princess Nuannuan naturally couldn't say anything.
"You..."
Prince Xiong stood up and kicked Princess Nuannuan hard, then left angrily.
Princess Nuannuan felt pain all over her body. She opened her mouth and spit out two mouthfuls of blood again, and her internal organs were all mixed together.
Is she going to die? Princess Nuannuan only felt a black screen in front of her eyes, and fainted again!
The dungeon door slammed shut, and no one cared about the life and death of an unfavored princess.
...
In the study, the mess on the floor had been cleaned up, and Xiao Yuzi and other eunuchs also replaced the tea sets with new ones.
The emperor's face was cold and his fists were clenched.
"This bastard!" The emperor said with gritted teeth.
Eunuch Xiao Yuzi didn't dare to say a word.
It can be seen that the emperor is in a bad mood now.
In fact, it is normal to think about it. That's six million taels of silver. Even if Prince Xiong can solve five million taels by himself, one million taels is still from their treasury. The emperor is also distressed.
However, what Eunuch Xiao Yuzi didn't know was that the emperor was more angry about something else.
In the dead of night, Eunuch Xiao Yuzi asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, it's time for you to go to bed!"
The little eunuch beside him carefully brought the jade plate, and the emperor's eyes fell on the neatly arranged jade plates.
"Let's go to the Queen!"
