In the past few years, Xie Yunyin had no prestige in the Prince's Mansion, and she was tolerant in everything, so many people did not take her seriously.
Even if I hold the power to manage the family, what can I do?
Fortunately, she threw them all away this time.
"After all the counting, I was actually counting my own things. I just realized that my dowry actually supported the harem for five years."
Accountant Qin bent over and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He didn't expect that this cowardly and incompetent princess would suddenly wake up.
The imperial court has been at war for the past few years and has hardly won a single battle against Beiyuan.
After this battle, everyone said that the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun might not be able to be defended.
The Anding County Prince's Mansion was largely responsible for the defeat, and Li Yunzheng even pretended to be dead and dared not come back.
It is a blessing in disguise that His Majesty has not pursued any responsibility.
But no one knew that this was the peace that was achieved through Lu Jin's mediation.
Prince Anding died on the battlefield, and now his son has also died.
The court's pension has not arrived yet, and the Prince Anding's Mansion has now reached the end of its rope and no one is interested in it.
Xie Yunyin just didn't expect that it was her dowry that supported the Prince's Mansion.
Around noon, Xie Yunyin planned to go out quietly.
She wanted to check out the nearby shops first.
If Li Yunzheng was short of money, he would naturally think of coming back.
She mainly planned to meet Lu Jin.
The compensation money has not been received yet, it must have been withheld by Lu Jin.
After checking the shop, Xie Yunyin took Rumeng to Zhaodingsi.
The late autumn evening is very cold, and the streets are becoming sparsely populated at this time.
The gloom and coldness made Xie Yunyin hug the hand warmer tightly.
When I arrived at the Seal Holder's Mansion, I realized that Lu Jin lived so close to the Imperial Palace.
In her past and present lives, today is a day that Xie Yunyin should be grateful for. On the fifth day as the mistress of the house, she has successfully returned to her parents' home. Now she has the courage to come and see Lu Jin.
She was the Crown Prince's Consort of the Marquis of Anding's Mansion, and Lu Jin couldn't give her ten strokes of the cane as well.
Xie Yunyin sent Rumeng to negotiate with the Zhaoding Guards guarding the gate and inform them.
What she didn't expect was that Lu Jin was actually in the mansion and agreed to see her.
Zhaoding Wei led the way seriously, without saying a word.
Xie Yunyin was thinking about her words and ignored the exquisiteness of the Palm Seal Mansion. She only remembered that it was very big.
She allowed entry, but Ru Meng could not.
The room was filled with sandalwood. Lu Jin, who had been so majestic and arrogant that day, was now reclining on a soft couch, looking extremely lazy and noble. In the dim light, his eyebrows and features were even more picturesque, and his unparalleled elegance and grace were even more striking.
"I have come here uninvited, and I hope Master Lu will forgive me." Xie Yunyin, who was standing at the door, bowed slightly.
Lu Jin raised his eyes to look at the person at the door, his eyes showing indifference, and asked, "What does the Crown Prince's Consort want to see me about?"
Xie Yunyin dressed up extra smartly today because she was going back to her parents' home. The scarlet color that she rarely wore set off her fair skin and beautiful appearance. She felt Lu Jin's scrutinizing gaze.
Then she heard Lu Jin teasingly say, "The Crown Prince's Concubine has an unparalleled beauty. I've seen it many times before."
Xie Yunyin smiled and took a few steps closer. "You are too kind, palm seal, but you are just a weakling."
Lu Jin smiled as if he was meeting an old friend: "Please take a seat, Princess. I have something to say."
Xie Yunyin spoke directly. She was here just to ask for money, so there was no need to beat around the bush. "It's about the pension. I know it's not easy to be the seal bearer, but this one hundred taels of silver is the lifeline for the Prince's Mansion. The Prince's Mansion is not as good as it used to be, so I hope the seal bearer will show some mercy."
Her voice was clear, melodious and pleasant. An imperceptible smile flashed across Lu Jin's deep eyes, but it disappeared in a flash.
Lu Jin snorted coldly, and said with a half-smile, "So you're here to ask for money. You're the first person to dare to ask for money from me."
However, Xie Yunyin was not afraid. So what if Lu Jin had a bad reputation?
She smiled lightly, sat in the chair, and smelled the pleasant smell, but said: "This money is here with the seal of the house. I wonder if there will be interest in the future?"
"The Crown Prince's Consort is the first person who dares to make money from me." Lu Jin's smile deepened a little, and he spoke in a very cold tone.
Xie Yunyin paused and asked, "Master Seal, you deliberately held onto this pension. What are your conditions? Why don't you just tell me directly?"
Lu Jin sat up and fiddled with the folding fan in his hand. "What do you think I'm missing, Princess?"
Xie Yunyin thought about it and realized that Lu Jin, who was second only to the emperor, really had everything he needed.
"If the seal holder is willing to take out these one hundred taels today, I am willing to return two hundred taels to the seal holder ten days later. What do you think?" She smiled and spoke in a clear voice.
Lu Jin narrowed his eyes and asked, "What if I can't get it back?"
Xie Yunyin promised: "I am willing to be punished by the seal!"
Lu Jin glanced at Xie Yunyin, who looked determined, and then looked outside the door. "Someone come."
"Master Seal, please give your orders." Bai Hao came in, bowed and lowered his eyes.
"Bring one thousand taels of silver, and remember to take back two thousand taels in ten days."
"Yes, palm print."
Xie Yunyin was immediately confused. What did Lu Jin mean by this?
"What? Do you regret it?" Lu Jin stood up, walked slowly towards Xie Yunyin with his long legs, and asked with a smile.
"Two thousand taels is just right." Xie Yunyin met his deep eyes. He was examining her, and she immediately lowered her eyes.
"Someone, come and send the Crown Princess back." He walked closer to her and spoke to the outside.
"Thank you for the seal." Xie Yunyin's head was filled with the scent of sandalwood. She almost forgot to say thank you. She paused before bowing and thanking him.
"I'm worried that my snowflake silver is lost." He was tall, shrouded in shadow, and his voice lingered above Xie Yunyin's head.
