Zhao Letong is no longer a poor little person who can't even afford ginseng. Now many people give her gifts, and she has so much ginseng that she can't finish it all.
Anyone who wants her to exorcise evil spirits and catch ghosts will need ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum.
Even General Xu contributed his own century-old ginseng to save his life, but unfortunately he only managed to save a half-dead son.
This is retribution.
Zhao Letong went to the palace several times and felt that the prince might need money. With the seventh prince eyeing him covetously, it would not be easy to be the prince.
Considering that the prince is Xiaoshan's father, Zhao Letong doesn't mind using the money to help His Royal Highness the Prince.
Xiao Shanjian was moved and said, "Tongtong, thank you, you are so kind to me."
Zhao Letong smiled. This child was quite easy to coax. "The bond between you and me, as we've been through thick and thin together, is naturally extraordinary. It's only natural that I should treat you well.
If you have a conscience, be a good emperor when you grow up and repay me double."
Xiao Shanjian nodded as if swearing: "I will."
He didn't even think about the fact that the prince was still young and it would take a long time for him to become emperor. However, that didn't stop him from having the desire to be a good emperor at this moment.
Zhao Letong killed the leader of Xuanming Sect, and his nephew could deal with the remaining small fry. It took him three days to set up a protective formation for the entire capital, which consumed a lot of spiritual energy, but he finally got it done.
Chen Jianzheng could only protect the palace but not the entire capital, but Zhao Letong did it. Song Lian was surprised. No wonder the master was willing to risk his reputation to recognize a junior sister. She is really a super powerful little junior sister.
Zhao Letong was so tired that he went home and went to sleep. He ate and slept, and slept and ate. It took him three full days of sleep to recover.
A lot of things happened outside while she was sleeping.
First of all, the wedding date of Zhao Biao and the eldest princess was set. Because they were both not young anymore, they did not want to have a big wedding. They just wanted to hold a simple ceremony so as not to disturb too many people.
The eldest princess took Zhao Biao's face into consideration and decided to live in Zhao's house after marriage, which was considered as her marrying down. Zhao Biao was not a son-in-law, so it would not hinder his future.
Emperor Xuande was also happy with this. According to the ancestral rules, the son-in-law had no real power, only wealth but no authority. What they feared was that the foreign relatives would interfere in politics, so they conferred them with titles and gave them sinecures, allowing them to live out their days in leisure.
Zhao Biao was the Minister of War, and he did his job very well. Emperor Xuande was very satisfied with him. In time, when the Minister of War retired, Zhao Biao would be able to take over and enter the cabinet to continue to help the emperor share his worries. He was one of Emperor Xuande's most trusted ministers.
How can I enter the cabinet after becoming a son-in-law?
However, Emperor Xuande did not want to let the eldest princess down, so he gave the former palace of Prince Su to Zhao Biao as their residence after marriage.
The entire court envied this favor. Zhao Biao was really amazing. He was already a grandfather, but he could still live off his wife and have a beautiful woman and a bright future. How did he do it?
Many people wanted to learn from him and were more flattering to Zhao Biao.
Zhao Biao was in high spirits and ignored the sour sarcasm of those literati who said that he relied on women to get promoted. This is my ability. Don’t think that he sounds so righteous now. If there is a chance, those literati will definitely not refuse. They are more shameless than him.
I brought my family to see the new house. The courtyard with thirteen entrances was three times larger than the Zhao family's, enough for everyone to live in.
Originally, several young grandchildren were crowded in one yard, but now there are more yards, and everyone can have one. In the future, when they get married, they don’t have to worry about not having enough room.
Mrs. Zhao walked very fast. It took her and the stewards two full hours to tour the entire palace. They were tired but very happy.
"The best yard should be given to Letong. Furnish it with the best furnishings and set up a small kitchen. Children get hungry quickly, so be prepared at all times. Don't let them go hungry."
The steward took note of it, and then the courtyards of the several young masters were arranged. Only then did Mrs. Zhao have time to drink some tea and rest.
The chief steward calculated the accounts and became worried. He reported, "Madam, with such a large courtyard, we will need a lot of servants. The monthly expenses will increase several times, but our income has not increased. I'm afraid we can't continue like this."
Mrs. Zhao had forgotten about this. "Let's prepare first. I'll discuss this matter with my father-in-law. If we want to hire servants, we should choose them from our own farm first, not from the pawnshop."
The chief manager said, "The girls and boys on the farm have been practicing martial arts since they were young. They are fine as guards, but they are not very careful when serving the master in close proximity. Madam, please think twice."
"If you don't know how to do it, you can learn. No one is born with the ability. It's settled. My father-in-law is nostalgic. The people on the farm are all his old subordinates and descendants. He can't keep them around forever, right?"
The output of these farms is not enough to support them, and they have to provide some subsidies every year. Mrs. Zhao is helpless because these are human hearts, and she cannot let them down.
Fortunately, these old subordinates are very grateful and try their best to be self-sufficient every year to reduce the burden on the general's office. Now that they are needed, they are given priority, which also gives their descendants a chance to succeed.
Mrs. Zhao was worrying about the money to buy things for the decoration of the new house. Zhao Letong woke up completely, took a bath and felt refreshed, which made Feicui Shanhu feel relieved.
The young lady has been eating and sleeping these days. She doesn't get out of bed except to go to the toilet. She is reluctant to open her eyes. Even though I know she is tired, I was still worried about her. Now she is finally back to normal.
"Why is the house so quiet?"
Feicui reported: "Young lady, you may not know this yet. The Emperor has gifted our family the former Prince Su's Mansion. The eldest princess is marrying the general, so we will all live there from now on. Everyone, go and pack up."
Zhao Letong's still somewhat confused mind suddenly cleared up, "Is the emperor so kind? Then I'll go over and take a look."
Prince Su's Mansion can be said to be the best mansion besides the Imperial Palace, because it is a prince's mansion.
