Chapter 59 The Dowry
Qin Tairan thought of his cruel brother Qin Yuxiu, and his mood sank a little.
"Prince Yu had a serious leg injury. The pain in his injured leg has become more severe recently. He almost couldn't get over it several times. Every time the leg injury relapses, what comes out of Prince Yu's mansion are huge basins of dirty blood."
Having said this, Qin Tairan sneered and put down the tea cup.
"It is still unclear whether the Royal Prince will survive until next year. The Queen Mother is too worried."
In his eyes, Qin Yuxiu did not pose a threat.
The queen sighed softly, fiddled with the incense burner on the table, and said solemnly: "Why do I worry too much? You really don't understand the sinister nature of the human heart. Even if you don't know whether the emperor can live until next year, anyway, he
On this day, you will not be able to sit safely in this position, and I will not feel at ease."
Qin Tairan stood up, pinched the queen's shoulders and beat her legs, and coaxed her in a good voice.
"Mother, please don't worry about such trivial matters, otherwise you will age quickly. Look, there are a few more lines on your forehead."
He is not a three-year-old child, so he naturally knows the powerful relationship.
But for the time being, he did not regard Qin Yuxiu as his opponent.
After all, Qin Yuxiu is just a cripple who is about to be buried.
How to threaten his position?
The Queen frowned and stood up, hurriedly sat in front of the bronze mirror and applied the pearl powder offered by other countries.
"If I have an extra wrinkle, I will definitely be angry with you. What are you going to do in Prince Yu's Mansion? Who is the bad guy in Prince Yu's Mansion? When will I be eaten to the point where no bones are left, I'm afraid even you
I don’t even know.”
The Queen Empress gently massaged the fine lines on her forehead with her fingertips.
"My son, don't you just want to find out the truth about Prince Yu? I also want to see what secrets there are in Prince Yu's palace."
Qin Tairan rubbed his swollen and painful forehead, his face was full of fatigue, it was really a headache to deal with his mother.
He has passed the age of weakness and there is no need to report everything to his mother in detail.
Seeing his pale face, the queen felt distressed in her heart, "Okay, go down and rest. Seeing your appearance, I also feel very distressed."
Qin Tairan breathed a long sigh of relief, saluted and left.
The queen kept combing her long hair, and the more she thought about it, the more unsure she became.
"Someone, bring Yan Xi in."
Yan Xi, dressed in smart attire, quickly entered the inner hall and knelt down on one knee to salute.
"See the Queen, what are your orders?"
"You were personally selected by me and trained since childhood as an imperial guard. You are also the right-hand man of the eldest prince. I also know that you have solved a lot of troubles for the eldest prince. But there was still an assassination last night, and he later moved into the imperial palace.
What’s so fishy about Wangfu?”
The queen didn't believe Qin Tairan's extremely perfunctory explanation.
It's okay to fool other people, but not her.
Even if she had concerns in her heart, she would not ask Qin Tairan directly. If she pushed her son into a hurry, the relationship between the two parties would drop to a freezing point.
Yan Xi held nothing back and told everything he knew.
"At that time, His Highness met Princess Yu, and they chatted all the way before meeting the killer. Later, in order to thank Princess Yu for saving her life, His Highness moved into Prince Yu's Mansion."
Princess Royal?
The queen accidentally broke off her favorite hosta.
That Nan Luo Qing who danced in Kyoto at the banquet?
"Go down."
"I obey my orders."
It wasn't until Yan Xi left that the queen began to get angry, and at the same time she gritted her teeth and said, "What's going on with Nan Luo Qing? Since she's married to the king, why is she still involved with Tairan? Tairan didn't mention Nan Luo Qing at all. It seems that
She is protecting this scheming woman at all times. What is she trying to do by approaching Tai Ran rashly? Is it because she wants to get the position of the Crown Princess? "
Aunt Zhu's expression became serious and she said solemnly: "I see that Nan Luo Qing is not a good person. The eldest prince has a pure nature. I think that Nan Luo Qing will play with the eldest prince in his hands."
The queen frowned, and the lines on her forehead deepened a little further, "Any woman who treats Tairan inappropriately is a thorn in my side. It seems that choosing a concubine for Tairan has to be put on the agenda. Go and spread the news.
, for the Hundred Flowers Banquet next month, I will carefully select a daughter-in-law to be Tairan’s concubine.”
"I understand, I will make arrangements now."
"By the way, when the time comes to invite Nan Luo Qing here, I will give her a good beating."
"It can be said that the empress is worried about the eldest prince. If the eldest prince knows the empress's good intentions, he will definitely be more diligent in political affairs."
"I only have one son, how can I not think about him?" The queen held Aunt Zhu's hand and lay down softly, closing her eyes to rest.
…
Royal Palace.
The farce from the singers in the morning did not affect Nan Luo Qing at all.
She made some life-saving medicines around her, some to stop bleeding, some to heal injuries, and some to treat some common illnesses.
When she had packed up all the medicines, she heard Uncle Li coming to deliver the news, saying that the dowry had been sent over from Nanfu and asked the princess to go and count it.
Nan Luo Qing hurried to the lobby and saw ten neat boxes of dowry inside.
In addition, there is also a small box made of rosewood.
At first glance, it seems that the original owner attached great importance to it.
If you don't pay attention to it, there is no need to put it in a rosewood box.
Nan Luoqing opened the box. In addition to a box full of colorful night pearls, there was also a Ruyi jade pendant that was warm to the touch.
This jade pendant was worth a lot at first glance. Nan Luoqing first put it on her waist and checked it out. She also felt that the design of the jade pendant was too strong and did not match her clothes and hair accessories at all.
No matter how much she liked it, Nan Luoqing had no choice but to put it in a box and let Tang Yue put the rosewood box away. There were all her treasures inside.
Tang Yue happily took the box and carefully returned it to the room.
As well as the ten boxes of gold and silver jewelry, silk and satin, Nan Luo Qing checked them one by one. After making sure that there was nothing wrong, he asked Uncle Li to help store them.
"Since the princess has checked it and there are no problems, I will leave first."
The steward of Nan Mansion was hunched over, his face frozen with laughter.
"Wait a minute, how can I, the princess, remember that in addition to these items, my mother also left many shops? Where is the land deed of the shops?"
Nan Luoqing's cold eyes stared straight into the heart of the housekeeper of Nan Mansion.
The housekeeper of Nan Mansion couldn't stand her gaze. He patted his head and quickly took out three land deeds from his arms.
"It's all because I'm old and have a bad memory. Madam has asked me to prepare these land deeds a long time ago."
In fact, what Zhao said was that if Nan Luoqing could not remember these shops, then he should take the land deeds back to Nanfu.
Anyway, Nan Luo Qing has already done the counting. When Nan Luo Qing asks them for it, they will not admit it.
