Chapter 30 Whoever fails to reach the top of the mountain is a grandson
Oh my God, five million taels, how much would that be in my previous life?
Ten thousand taels of silver, even if calculated at a lower amount, is still worth 2.5 million RMB.
Five million taels of silver is equivalent to 12.5 billion.
Astronomical figures.
This made her think of a certain county-level official in her previous life who had luxury cars, private jets, etc. at the airport.
Sure enough, all corrupt officials in the world are equally corrupt.
If placed in Dongxi, it would account for a small half of the country's tax revenue.
"Surprised, right? A third-rank official could be so greedy."
When Princess Changle first heard about it, she was even more surprised than Bai Qinghuan.
Her life is luxurious enough, but I can't imagine that much money.
"So the whole family will be executed soon."
"You deserve it. You embezzled so much money."
Everyone has hatred towards the rich, including Bai Qinghuan.
When her business network grows to a certain scale, she will be very rich.
However, it is obvious that the Regent is a person who cannot tolerate any sand in his eyes. Why has he tolerated the Minister of Revenue until now?
Or is it that the Minister of Revenue is so smart that he has concealed it from everyone?
She suddenly thought of raising pigs, fattening them up, and then killing them.
Um, is the Regent raising pigs?
She might well have ruined his plans.
Does she still have some weight in the Regent's heart? Hehe...
"It just so happens that there is a snowstorm in Fuzhou, so the court is not short of money."
Princess Changle knew something about the affairs of the imperial court.
Bai Qinghuan opened the curtain, and the cold wind blew in, making her shiver.
Looking up at the cloudy sky, he said, "The snow is really heavy this year."
It snowed several times before the coldest days of winter began.
"How long will it take us to get there?"
Since you are going out to play, you should have fun happily and enjoy yourself.
As for those things in officialdom, they are not something that girls in the boudoir should worry about.
Princess Changle also looked outside with great interest: "About two hours. The hot spring village is a bit far away, at the foot of Fengming Mountain."
She likes snowy days the most. When she goes to the farm, she can play snowball fights. Just thinking about it makes her happy.
"Ah? So long?"
Fengming Mountain, I have been there several times, it is indeed far away.
The snow on the official road had been cleared, but the carriage was still shaking a lot and she felt a little dizzy after a while.
Two hours later, they finally arrived at the farm.
As expected, she was carsick throughout the whole journey and vomited all over the place.
Biyun and Zhenzhu were very anxious and helped her wash up and put her to bed.
Princess Changle was not tired. She went up the mountain with her maids and guards. When she had enough fun, she picked a few plum blossoms and put them in a vase. When it was brought to her, she had just woken up.
"Why are you so carriage-sick?"
"I don't know either."
In my previous life, I was prone to motion sickness. I didn’t expect that after changing my body, I would still feel motion sickness.
The speed of the horse-drawn carriage is slow. Will we be able to travel far in the future?
After drinking a bowl of minced meat porridge, her stomach felt warmer and more comfortable.
Princess Changle suggested: "Go to the hot springs and relax a little bit."
"In the afternoon, other people will arrive one after another, and we will go up the mountain to play."
"Aren't you tired?"
You've been there once, haven't you?
"Not tired, it's more lively when there are more people."
Then he looked at her suspiciously: "Can you... do it?"
Bai Qinghuan: As a woman, you cannot say that you are not good enough.
"It must be done."
By the time I had digested the food, most of the other people had arrived.
Biyun asked, "Miss, are you still going to the hot spring?"
"Come back and go again. Now that I've soaked myself and feel warm, I don't want to go out."
Also, it's cold outside, and it's easy to catch a cold if you soak in a hot spring and then go out.
She doesn't want to be sick.
Unexpectedly, the Third Prince also came with Bai Qingyou. Bai Qingyou had a rosy complexion and it was obvious that the Third Prince doted on her a lot.
She was still wearing a white dress that fluttered in the wind, making Bai Qinghuan feel cold.
If you ignore her smug look like a white swan with her neck stretched out and her nose turned up, she really does look like a cool and talented lady.
Bai Qinghuan pulled Princess Changle's sleeve and asked, "Did you invite them?"
When Princess Changle saw Bai Qingyou, she said unhappily, "You came uninvited."
She doesn't welcome the dialogue.
Her behavior is disgusting.
The Third Prince was her cousin, so it was not easy to chase him away. She could only stay away from them.
Bai Qingyou didn't know she was annoying, and she walked over coquettishly, twisting her waist: "Sister."
"I heard that my sister almost got engaged a few days ago?"
She looked so gloating, as if she was afraid that others didn't know her vicious thoughts.
"Thank you for your concern, it's really a little bit worse."
Bai Qingyou couldn't laugh anymore. What did it mean by "thanks to her"?
"I don't know which family my sister will marry into in the future? Sigh..."
"How about I ask the Third Prince to help me introduce some young talents to you?"
I quietly looked at the faces of the young men from the aristocratic families nearby, and sure enough, many of them took a step back in disgust, as if they were afraid of being depended on.
With a sneer on her face, she looked at Bai Qinghuan smugly, wanting to see her heartbroken and envious of her.
Princess Changle doesn't spoil her:
"There are always some concubines who don't know how high the heaven is and how deep the earth is, and they even want to control the legitimate daughter. They don't know what they are doing."
Bai Qingyou was secretly ridiculed by Princess Changle and dared not say anything. She could only lower her head and burst into tears.
"I just wanted to help my sister."
"Help her? Stealing her fiancé is helping her? This princess has learned something new today."
"Changle, Qingyou is the woman that this king loves, please be merciful with your words."
"snort."
The third prince stepped forward and put his arm around Bai Qingyou's waist.
Bai Qingyou exclaimed: "Your Highness, there are so many people."
The Third Prince didn't care: "You are my man, there is nothing you can't see."
Then pay attention to Bai Qinghuan. He dotes on Bai Qingyou so much, Bai Qinghuan must be regretting it, right?
He thought that if Bai Qinghuan begged him, he would take her as his concubine.
She was wearing a bright red dress today, standing in the snow, and looked particularly eye-catching.
Just standing there is a scenery in itself, pleasing to the eyes.
Then his face froze.
Because Bai Qinghuan looked at him as if he were a plague god, he took a few steps back and hid behind Princess Changle.
Bai Qinghuan actually dared to despise him!
The third prince's face turned pale and no one around him dared to say a word, for fear of stirring up a hornet's nest.
Princess Changle could only try to smooth things over: "Cousin, everyone is here, shall we go up the mountain now?"
"What the princess said is true. Let's go. The mountain is covered with snow. Let's walk in the snow to look for plum blossoms. Isn't that elegant?"
"We will meet at the Merlin halfway up the mountain?"
"Halfway up the mountain is so boring. If you want to climb a mountain, go to the top."
The speaker was General Huwei's youngest son, Chen Kuan, who was as strong as a calf.
He is not interested in searching for plum blossoms in the snow, but he likes climbing mountains.
Chi Songtao, the son of the Prince of Qingping, hesitated:
"General Xiao Chen, the mountain road is covered with snow. I'm afraid it won't be easy to reach the top, right?"
"What, you don't dare? Are you admitting that you are not as good as this little general? Hahaha..."
Chi Songtao couldn't stand Chen Kuan's blatant sarcasm, as they were all young people.
"Let's compete, who's afraid of who? Let's go!"
With just a few words, we will get to work hard and climb to the top of the mountain.
"Whoever fails to reach the top of the mountain is a grandson!"
"I'm afraid of you."
"Hahaha, you're such a weakling, you can't beat me."
After hearing this, Chi Songtao just wanted to beat him up, but no matter how much he ate, he just couldn't gain weight, which made him very angry.
"You are the weakling."
They walked up the mountain in groups of three or four.
Princess Changle went with Bai Qinghuan, and of course the maids and guards were also with them, after all, their safety was also very important.
Bai Qinghuan was in a good mood. This is what young people should be like.
Unlike in my previous life, I could only stay at home.
She looked up at the top of the mountain. It would be exciting to ski down from the top of the mountain, right?
