Chapter 375 King Ning wants to compete with the crown prince for the throne
"No!" the maid complained, "Then Xie Shisan is really arrogant. He doesn't even give the girl face, and even the Beiting Hou Mansion and the Huainan Prince Mansion don't take him seriously."
"Girl, we must teach her a lesson so that she knows how powerful she is and who she shouldn't offend!"
Shen Mingzhu was filled with rage and wanted to deal with the short-sighted one, but she still had some sense and knew that it was hard to offend Xie Yixiao now.
If she is just a member of the Xie family, that's it. If she offends, she will be offended. But there is also Rong Guogong's Mansion. If she offends Rong Guogong's Mansion, let alone Beitinghou Mansion, even Huainan Prince's Mansion will be offended.
Can't save her.
Shen Mingzhu almost gritted her teeth, but she had to swallow her breath.
After thinking about it, she remembered Rong Qing from Duke Rong's mansion: "How is Miss Rong doing recently? I remember that the Liao family and the Xie family have never dealt with each other. If we want to deal with Xie Shisan, she will definitely be willing."
Shen Mingzhu felt that it was difficult for her to take action, but she would definitely be happy to find Rong Qing.
The maid said: "Miss, you forgot, let the eldest daughter enter the palace."
Not long after the new year, Rong Qing was sent to the palace by Mrs. Rong Guogong. I heard that Mrs. Rong Guogong wanted the nuns in the palace to teach her more rules so that they could get married in the future.
It is said that she is now under the control of Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess, and she has to have her nanny teach her the rules every day. It is extremely painful, and I don’t know how many times I have cried.
It was only when Shen Mingzhu heard this that she remembered this incident, but she secretly thought, "It's really an advantage to her!"
Apart from Rong Qing, few girls in Mandi City would dare to make Xie Yi laugh. Even the Liao family, which has had grievances with the Xie family for many years, probably would not dare to jump on her head now.
Thinking about it, Xie Yixiao had the guts to be so stubborn and even refused to give her face, so he had something to rely on.
Shen Mingzhu bit her lip: "In the future..."
In the future, if the prince becomes the emperor and she becomes the queen, she will definitely want Xie Shisan to kneel down in front of her and take the tone like today!
Just wait!
Shen Mingzhu clenched the handkerchief in her hand. The most important thing at the moment was her concubine cousin and Gu You. These two people must be eliminated first. Xie Yixiao, let's talk about it later.
"Go, ask the second sister to come over and sit down. I want to talk to her."
The maid smiled when she heard this: "The second girl really doesn't know how to praise her. She thinks that she is now a concubine, so she dares not to give her face. The girl must also beat her well to let her know who is the master of this palace.
.”
Shen Mingzhu said lightly: "Let her be happy for a few days and invite her over."
"yes."
.
Xie Yixiao didn't know that there was still such a scene in Huainan Prince's Mansion and her days went on as usual, but she was also worried that Shen Mingzhu could not find Gu You and come to trouble her again.
Fortunately, nothing happened since that day.
Rong Ci's people had also been arranged, and there were thirty people in total. Xie Yixiao asked Manager Qian to take over the handover. After negotiating the terms, he took the people to the farm. With people in the factory, work started.
Already.
With people working in the factory, Xie Yixiao has some free time, and spends his days researching new products, or making products that use more expensive materials and sell more expensively.
So the day came to February.
On the sixth day of February, Qin Ruyue married into Prince Ning's Mansion on a float and became Princess Ning.
When a noble daughter of the Duke's palace was married as a princess, the scene was very grand. The procession of dowries was winding down the street, and the red dowry was not stopped for ten miles. Someone with good intentions counted it in detail, and it was a total of one hundred and ninety-two.
"One hundred and ninety-two lifts?" Xie Yixiao opened his eyes wide.
Nowadays, the wedding gifts and dowries of powerful families follow the system of the previous dynasty. When a woman gets married, sixty-four dowries are divided into a whole number, which is called a full dowry, and thirty-two dowries are called a half dowry. For princes and princesses, the dowry is about one hundred and ninety.
If the number is two hundred, if it is a queen or a princess, then it is two hundred and upward.
But now that the new dynasty has been established, and the world has been peaceful and stable for only more than ten years, it is still a bit poor. The dowry for this wedding has been slightly reduced, and it cannot be overdone.
For example, most of the wives of the legitimate sons of princes and princes were married to the number one hundred and twenty-eight. When His Highness the Crown Prince married the princess, it was only one hundred and ninety-two.
In this way, even if Prince Ning marries a princess, if he wants to add more, it should not exceed the number of the princess. It should be half a tael, which is 160 taels.
Could it be that these one hundred and ninety-two moves were a blatant provocation to the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess, and they wanted to compete with the Crown Princess?
Xie Yixiao had to admit that Prince Ning was really brave. He jumped up and down so much that the Duke of Qin's mind was probably covered in paper, and he actually went along with him to cause such nonsense.
"Is this true?" Xie Yixiao asked again.
Russula said: "My servant has personally counted it, and it is indeed one hundred and ninety-two lifts. One lift is not too much, but one lift is a lot. People outside are very envious!"
"I wonder how much a girl will have when she gets married?"
Xie Yi smiled for a moment, and then said with a smile: "We will know how many there are in time. Don't say these words again."
Xie Yixiao didn't want to compare with Qin Ruyue. After all, she married into the prince's palace and became a princess after marrying. Moreover, she had always followed the principle of making money silently. Even if she has so many things, she just needs to hold them firmly in her hands.
, there is no need to make a fuss known to the world.
Moreover, Qin Ruyue's dowry is really too much.
Xie Zhu went to have a wedding banquet with Mrs.
There are countless jewels.”
"There are quite a few houses, shops and farms among them. It seems that the Duke of Qin has really made a lot of money in these years."
Xie Yu's tone was a bit sad: "But I think this dowry is really too much. Many women present at the time looked a little bad. I don't know if the Duke of Qin is out of his mind."
These one hundred and ninety-two dowry loads are an incredible number. Who dares to have this number when a girl from Mandi City gets married? Is it possible that you can still compare with the Crown Princess, the future empress?
Don't be afraid that people will write you off.
Even if there are really so many things to give at home, just give them in private, in the name of fame, isn't this just asking for death?
You can put gold, silver and jewelry in a box and pick them up when you come back later. Larger pieces of furniture can be placed in the house. You can just give them together with the title deed of the house when the time comes.
.
If it's a banknote, it's easier to handle. Once you put it in the small box, you can take it away.
"Prince Ning married the noble daughter of the Duke of Qin, and received the help of the Duke of Qin. I am afraid that the dowry was not intended to express a meaning." After saying this, Xie Yi paused with a smile, "Prince Ning wants to compete with the prince for the position of heir apparent."
"What?" Xie Zhu was shocked.
Xie Yi smiled and nodded: "After today's wedding, there may be a storm in the court."
