Chapter 175 Wild Princess
Emperor Liang would not give up any opportunity to find something to hold against Prince Qing.
In his secret report to the emperor, Chen Jianping wrote about the source of Princess Zhaoning's property.
It was clearly written above that since Xiao Tangbao entered the palace, he had received more than 200,000 taels of cash from Empress Cao, Concubine Xiao, Concubine Li, and the Empress Dowager.
On the day when Xiao and Jiang Zhong's affair was exposed, Duke Ningguo made a bet and lost 30,000 taels of silver to Tang Bao, plus two prosperous shops. Together with Li Chenglan's 10,000 taels, and the discounted dowry that Xie Yuanshuang gave to Tang Bao, the total amount was 100,000 taels.
All the property in Prince Qing's Mansion, the property left to Tang Bao by her mother, and the gifts Tang Bao received at her graduation banquet, after all of them were discounted, added up to a total of 100,000 taels.
With this calculation, not only did I not get any advantage from being forced to lower the price, but I even extorted more than 90,000 taels of silver from Chen the Bitch. But there is still a shortfall of 100,000 taels. Where can I get it?
On this side, no one walked out of the Ministry of Revenue with a smile.
Over there, Xiao Tangbao opened the car door a crack, and with his round almond-shaped eyes, he looked at Chengfeng, who looked listless and yawning, with some confusion.
"Uncle Chengfeng, what's wrong with you? Are you sick?" The little guy was obviously worried.
Tang Bao has taken a lot of bitter medicines, and Tang Bao doesn't like to see the person he loves sick!
The little guy was thinking, should he learn some talismans to prevent people from getting sick next time?
But Tang Bao is still thinking about learning Bazi and Liu Yao! Tang Bao really wants to learn fortune-telling from his master. Fortune-telling can make a lot of money!
Oh! I'm so distressed...
Listening to the soft and baby voice and looking at the sweet and soft face of his little master, Chengfeng, who was the leader of the secret guards and decisive in killing at critical moments, suddenly felt aggrieved.
How should he tell the little princess that the prince was jealous of the deep affection between him and the little princess, and not only cruelly fined him a whole year's salary, but also punished him to run all over the south city and deliver a bucket of rice and flour to every household last night?
What did the prince say?
Oh, "Since the guards love Princess Zhaoning so much, they can't just rely on words. They must not only contribute money but also work hard to accumulate merit for the little princess..."
There are so many servants in the mansion, and he has so many brothers under him, why does he have to deliver it to each family at night?
They also said they were afraid of disturbing others and didn't want to ride horses.
Taking this opportunity, I can strengthen my Qinggong~
Oh, he didn't know that his master, who grew up with him, had more and more ways to punish and torture people!
And he only targets his own people!
"Uncle Chengfeng?"
"It's fine with me..."
Forget it, he can't run anymore. It's better not to let the little princess know this time, lest the princess get even more angry with the prince and refuse to return to the palace!
After a pause, Chengfeng forced himself to speak, "Princess, please go back and sit down. Don't catch a cold. We'll be at the palace in a quarter of an hour after turning the corner."
"I'm not going to the palace!" The little boy waved his hand, narrowed his eyes, and his little face was full of pride. "Tang Bao was just trying to divert attention. Tang Bao lied to Daddy! Tang Bao is going to the residence of the Minister of Justice!"
The soul of the little grandson of the Minister of Justice is really too small and too weak.
Ever since she put him into the soul bottle, she has been worried every day, fearing that he would be swallowed by some crazy ghost. She has to look at it several times a day.
She had to help him fulfill his wish and send him to where he should go!
…
Chengfeng didn't ask much. The little princess could go wherever she wanted. Even if the princess didn't have the token, they still had her. There was no door in the world that the little princess couldn't enter!
In Minister Cheng's residence, the second young master's wife, Kong, who had just had a tantrum with her husband and was becoming increasingly worried about her son, heard the housekeeper report that there was a visitor outside the residence. She twisted her body and turned her face away.
"It's so urgent now... Is this the time to meet and entertain guests?"
"No! Leave a visiting card and let them go back!" There have been too many people who came here with fake good intentions to watch the fun recently. She didn't want to entertain them anymore and see their ugly faces!
"Madam," the housekeeper said with a grim expression, "the person who has come is Princess Zhaoning. She must be seen...and the young prince said that she knows the whereabouts of the second young master."
Kong was startled, staring blankly at the person opposite her...
I thought that His Royal Highness Prince Qing was working at the Military Affairs Department, so if he knew something, it wasn't impossible that Princess Zhaoning would hear it...
Yes, yes, yes!
Huaijin is her only son!
She can't give up as long as there is the slightest chance!
Kong, who had not had a good sleep for a long time, did not even bother to put on an outer robe. She picked up her skirt and ran out. The servants were so anxious that they chased her and put a cloak on her.
Mrs. Kong, who came to accompany Mrs. Kong, heard the noise and came out from the side room.
She frowned and looked at Kong's back, shaking her head: "Even if it's urgent, it shouldn't be like this. How can you be so crazy?"
The young woman supporting her was filled with worry and couldn't help but sigh, "Don't blame me for being anxious! Auntie, you don't know. Rumor has it that this Zhaoning is no ordinary four-year-old..."
"?" Mrs. Kong turned her head to look at her: "What do you mean?"
Su Ruoruo quickly glanced around, raised her hand to cover her lips, and lowered her voice to Madam Kong, "My niece also heard it from others. It is said that Princess Zhaoning was born extraordinary. That day in the zoo, she managed to tame a tiger by summoning thunder. She also opened her third eye and can see ghosts and monsters..."
"What nonsense are you talking about!?" Mrs. Kong's face instantly turned pale, and her voice became a little higher. "A gentleman does not speak of strange things..."
Meeting the subconscious glances of the maids beside her, Mrs. Kong glared at her niece angrily:
"Shut up your crow mouth! Huai Jin is lucky and has a long life, he will be fine! Maybe he was abducted by kidnappers, but my in-laws are the Minister of Justice, they will find him!"
Su Ruoruo: “…”
Kong ran all the way and personally led people to the door to welcome Tangbao. After the greeting, she directly welcomed little Tangbao into the backyard.
As soon as the door to the second courtyard was closed, Kong, with a haggard and sorrowful expression, knelt down before Xiao Tangbao. "May I ask, Your Highness, do you really know the whereabouts of my Jin'er? Where is he now?"
Looking at Kong's urgent eyes, Tang Bao felt a sore throat and felt a little sad.
She couldn't bear to say it, but Tang Bao could tell the difference between living and dead souls. Cheng Huaijin was indeed completely dead...
Woo~
Who is so cruel that he even kills children??!
If Tang Bao were to meet the murderer, he would not even be given a chance to speak and would be beaten to death!
The little fellow puffed up his face and gritted his teeth. As soon as he opened his mouth, Madam Kong and the others rushed out and knelt down to kowtow, "We pay our respects to Princess Zhaoning. May the Princess live a thousand years!"
Where no one else could see, the arrogant Mrs. Kong rolled her eyes so hard that her eyelids were twitching.
whispering sound……
Just a three and a half year old wild princess, donating silver and having the ability to open her third eye, she is so extravagant, she is almost praised to the sky!
What the hell!!!
