Chapter 108 Brother and sister are greedy for money
Emperor Zi'an said nothing.
A Bao stared at the small box of gold ingots. He didn't
even bother to crack the melon seeds.
He was drooling.
[Brother, look! Gold, it's so beautiful when it glitters]
Emperor Zi'an: I see it, sister, I'm not blind, I see it clearly.
He smiled as if it was worthless.
Seeing that the brother and sister were silent, the prime minister quietly told the housekeeper, who quickly brought another small box.
How could he know that the brother and sister were greedy for money.
They are princes and princesses, and they have seen so much gold and silver.
How could they be interested in this little gold and silver?
This time, it's not gold ingots.
It's a stack of banknotes!
The prime minister handed the small box to Emperor Zi'an with trembling hands, "Seventh Prince, Tenth Princess, these are all. This old minister has taken out all the assets of the prime minister's mansion."
Of course, he is also very shrewd. He
must leave a small part for Xuan'er's future dowry.
That can't be taken! Even
if God says so, he can't take it out.
He would rather suffer himself than let these two children suffer.
"Now, it's really gone, prince, princess, there is no more."
Emperor Zi'an cleared his throat, "Ahem, okay, sister, do you think these are okay?"
A Bao frowned and tried his best to hold back his laughter.
Hold it back!
Must hold it back!
[Okay, okay, leave some for the old prime minister
to take care of himself] "Hey, Tenth Princess." The old prime minister felt a little sorry when he saw the aggrieved look of the Tenth Princess.
"Oh, Bu Dai has to give you something." A Bao waved his hands.
The old prime minister: "..."
It has come to this point. If he doesn't give you a gift, it seems that he doesn't know the ways of the world.
The old prime minister immediately ordered someone to bring a gold lock.
A Bao's eyes widened.
[What a big gold lock! ]
"Bu Dai, Bu Dai..." A Bao slurped his saliva into it.
The old prime minister shuddered and quickly hung the gold lock around A Bao's neck, "Tenth Princess, this is a meeting gift from this old minister to the princess. Please accept it."
A Bao chuckled, looking like it was worthless.
[I'll accept it! I will definitely accept it! ]
[The old prime minister is really good at doing things]
The corner of Emperor Zi'an's mouth twitched. This big gold lock would cost the old prime minister several years of monthly salary.
"Hey, you two are happy, but I... am afraid I will cry." The old prime minister frowned.
A Bao was immersed in the joy of receiving the golden lock.
[Sister Lan is blessed with good fortune, and the Prime Minister's Mansion will be prosperous in the future.]
[Although Lan Moxiu's legs are disabled and he is poisoned, with Sister Lan here, it will be fine.]
[Lan Moxiu's recovery is just around the corner.]
Emperor Zi'an hurriedly comforted, "Prime Minister, there is something I must tell you, but in my opinion, you'd better keep it secret."
"Your Highness, please speak."
"I met Taoist Baiyun before, and he said that Lan Yixiu is a noble person. After her fifteenth birthday, her fate will change significantly. I think it has come true today."
He couldn't say that all this had anything to do with A Bao.
The only thing he could do was to direct the blame to Taoist Master Baiyun.
The prestige of Taoist masters has always been very high in the eyes of officials.
"Lan Jinjin's good fortune is nothing but a figment of her imagination. It's Xuan... Lan Yixuan who is truly worthy of her fate."
Prime Minister Lan saw that there were a few more sparkling lights in Emperor Zian's eyes when he looked at Lan Yixuan.
As a person who had experienced this, he guessed what Emperor Zian was thinking at a glance.
But he also understood his own daughter, and was afraid that the Seventh Prince would be infatuated and make the wrong decision.
Lan Yixuan looked weak on the surface, but she was actually strong inside.
She would not like someone she didn't like, even if she was forced to.
"Of course, if the Prime Minister doesn't believe it, you can ask Taoist Baiyun to come and take a look at Lan Yixuan's fate and give some advice."
Prime Minister Lan shook his head, "I believe it, but fate and luck are innate. Even if Xuan'er has bad luck, she is still my daughter. I never care about this." The
reason why Lan Jinjin was kept in the mansion before was not because of her good luck, but because of the father-daughter relationship they had developed over the past ten years.
"Yes, if the Prime Minister really believed in fate, he probably wouldn't have let Lan Yixuan enter the mansion. You are actually a very qualified father. You are worried that Lan Yixuan would run around and cause trouble outside, so you locked her up. You don't want her to leave the mansion, right?"
Lan Yixuan was stunned after hearing what Di Zi'an said.
Prime Minister Lan was afraid that Di Zian would say something else and poke his mind. "Seventh Prince, Tenth Princess, you still have a lot of things to do, so I won't keep you here. Go and do your business."
Lan Yixuan looked at the backs of Di Zian and Abao as they left, with a thoughtful look in her eyes.
Why... did she feel that her luck had changed?
...
After leaving the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, Di Zian took out a list from his arms.
He read it through.
The officials on it were all from wealthy families.
"Sister, shall we go to my uncle's house next?" Di Zian pointed to a name on the list.
There are three uncles in the Tiansheng Dynasty.
That is, the Queen Mother's younger brother.
Among them, the Grand Uncle's Mansion is the most unusual.
Grand Uncle's Mansion.
"Master, Master, the Tenth Princess is here to see you." The housekeeper came to report hurriedly.
The eldest uncle, who was sitting in the pavilion and watching the little courtesans dancing, was stunned.
He straightened his body, and his belly, which was as big as a pot, shook, "Ahem, the emperor has gone crazy recently.
When he went to court, he held the Tenth Princess in his arms. When he left court, he even asked a baby to come over for fundraising. He really treats the Tenth Princess as a god. Did you find out where the Tenth Princess came from?" "
The Right Prime Minister's Mansion."
"Haha, the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, the wife of Prime Minister Lan, I know a thing or two about it.
Yang is a stingy woman who doesn't give a penny. The Tenth Princess and His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince really dared to go to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion to raise funds.
Did the big one and the small one come out crying?" Prime Minister Lan was
in a good mood.
Yang was not someone who was easy to talk to.
The housekeeper replied weakly: "It is true that they came out crying loudly, but it was not the Seventh Prince and the Tenth Princess, but Yang and Lan Jinjin."
The eldest uncle stood up!
"Who are you talking about?" Prime
Minister Lan doted on his wife very much. He
had been an official for many years and had never married a concubine.
"Now she can't be called Yang, she should be called Lu Luo. Oh, old man, you don't know, the streets are going crazy now." The housekeeper told the eldest uncle everything. "
I'm not in the mood to care about other people's affairs now. Since the Tenth Princess is here, let her in. She is just a child. Prepare some snacks for her, let her eat and leave, and say that I'm busy here and it's not convenient to see guests. You go and deal with it."
The eldest uncle spoke, and the housekeeper handled it on his own.
A Bao was drinking milk from a fat cup at the door of the mansion.
He saw the housekeeper bring a plate of snacks.
A Bao's eyes lit up.
