11-5 A day in the life of Christian Zeng

11-6 The eldest princess woke up

When Liu Ziguang arrived, Zeng Cheng was still unconscious, and several imperial doctors knelt beside him in fear. They just shook their heads in front of the Marquis's question.

"Your Highness has been severely stimulated before, and he was stimulated again before he recovered. This brain...I'm afraid...it's hard to say when he will wake up." The imperial doctor could only give this fact under Liu Ziguang's repeated questioning.

Rather than the answer.

Liu Ziguang knew that today's medical level was not enough to treat such mental illness, and he did not want to embarrass the doctors, so he waved them off. The doctors went back dejectedly, as if they had been granted amnesty. Before going out, they took a look at the doctor kneeling at the door.

The dozen or so disgraced Ouchi guards secretly said to you, "Just wish yourself well."

Liu Ziguang looked gloomy. He sat next to Zeng Cheng and picked up her pale and cold hand. He felt desolate in his heart. Why was Zeng Cheng so miserable? Was he destined to live a life of wealth? The princess who was born with golden branches and beautiful leaves could only condescend to remain anonymous in this alley.

That's all. But she couldn't live such a peaceful life. For a mere three thousand taels of silver, she was so stimulated that she passed out again. This was a deep coma, and there was no way she would become a vegetative state. Poor little one who was less than one year old.

Liu Kangang has lost his mother since then. God, how can it be so unfair!

The wet nurse brought Liu Kuangkuang over. The child was ignorant and cried into Zeng Cheng's arms. But the mother could no longer hold him, watch him grow up, or teach him to walk or talk.

The Marquis was silent, the children were crying, and the nanny and maids were all in tears. After a while, Liu Ziguang stood up and walked out the door. As soon as he went out, the guards knocked their heads with a loud bang, and there were spots on the floor tiles.

Bloodstains.

"My subordinates are incompetent and failed to protect His Highness. Please punish me, Lord Marquis!" On a cold day, more than a dozen guards stripped their upper bodies, and their bodies were bloody and full of marks from whips. This was because they were willing to be beaten.

Those who were punished were all rich and powerful men, but they all spoke with a crying tone. As bodyguards, they failed to protect themselves. This is a serious crime of confiscating a house and exterminating an entire family. Moreover, the Marquis and the eldest princess treated them very well. Such mistakes in work were really inappropriate.

.

Liu Ziguang ignored them. He needed to be quiet. Zeng Cheng's accident made him sad and angry. He didn't know where to vent this evil fire. The collapse of the fund was the cause of Zeng Cheng's coma, but the collapse of the fund was

There are countless reasons. The defeat of the Western Army, the inaction of the Securities Regulatory Commission, the imperial court's excessive issuance of funds, the greed of the people and the malicious operations of certain interest groups are all the culprits. Isn't it possible to kill them all? Even if we kill them all, what can we do?

Let Zeng Cheng wake up?

"Have the Emperor and the Queen Mother notified you?" Liu Ziguang asked.

"It's not too late to go back to Lord Marquis."

Liu Ziguang was speechless. The eldest princess was an important link between him and Zhu Youxiao. When Zeng Cheng was around, he was still Zhu Youxiao's brother-in-law and the empress dowager's son-in-law. Without Zeng Cheng, he was just a powerful official temporarily out of office.

, he will be killed by the emperor sooner or later, but the matter is so big, it is not a problem to hide it. He sighed and said: "Send someone to the palace to report."

After blowing the cold wind outside for a while, he returned to the house. Liu Kuang was still crying. Although the child's mind was not fully developed, mother and child were connected and could feel that something was not good, so the cry was particularly pitiful. Liu Ziguang hugged him

He couldn't coax him when he got up. The child was crying and crying. Suddenly Liu Ziguang saw Zeng Cheng's eyelids moving, so he rushed over and called out: "Xiao Cheng, wake up, open your eyes and look at me.

Look after the kids.”

Zeng Cheng's eyelids moved twice more, and then he took a deep breath. Youyou woke up and turned around. When he saw his mother opening her eyes, Liu Kuanghong suddenly stopped crying and stretched out his hands for his mother to hold. Liu Ziguang also

I was so excited that I didn't know what to say, so I just smiled stupidly, with tears streaming from my eyes.

Zeng Cheng sat up straight, reached out to hold the child over, and then touched Liu Ziguang's cheek. Without saying anything, he looked at him affectionately with his eyes. At this time, a cold wind blew from the crack in the door that was not closed tightly just now.

, blowing the Western Regions Good News Fund scattered on the bedside, Liu Ziguang glanced at it sideways, and said quickly: "Xiaocheng, you have been sleeping for several days, the world is shaking outside, the Western Region Fund has skyrocketed hundreds of times.

The fund we bought with 3,000 taels of silver is now worth 10,000 taels. Don’t worry, I will redeem them in a while. In exchange for the silver, we can buy whatever we want. You don’t want to buy a three-income mansion.

Hey, let’s buy one in the city and one in the country. Even if we have seven or eight more children, it’s enough trouble.”

Zeng Cheng smiled and still didn't speak. He rubbed Liu Ziguang's face with one hand, as if he hadn't seen him for a long time. This situation made Liu Ziguang a little worried. Could it be that the excitement was too great this time and he became stupid?

He didn't dare to neglect, so he grabbed the funds and went out. He grabbed a guard and deliberately shouted loudly: "Old Zhang, go and help me exchange all these funds. You can't lose a penny of ten thousand taels of silver."

After saying that, he pulled the guard closer, gritted his teeth and whispered: "Go back to my house and ask the housekeeper to pay 10,000 taels of silver. Then send another 100,000 taels of silver. Find a few people to collect the funds on the market for me. It's not a loss."

Has it reached 20 cents per unit? A 10 million unit is only 200,000 taels. You try your best to collect it and raise the price for me, and I will forgive you for your poor protection."

The guard hurriedly said: "As ordered, Lord Marquis, please take care of it. Brothers will definitely get this done." After saying that, he was about to kneel down again. Liu Ziguang picked him up, turned around and kicked him in the butt: "Not so fast."

Go, waste time and think carefully about your head."

Returning to the house, Liu Ziguang said with a smile: "Don't worry, the money will be brought to you in a while." Zeng Cheng was coaxing the crying Liu Kangang to sleep when he heard this and said: "Oh, sir, I have really suffered for you.

"

Liu Ziguang said: "As long as you and your children have a good life, I don't care no matter how hard or tiring it is to run a single gang outside."

Zeng Cheng said: "I'm not talking about this, I'm talking about this small world you have painstakingly created for me, from the small fishing village in Xuanwu Lake to Wuyi Lane in the south of the city. For my illness, even the Queen Mother and the Emperor's brother have

When you disguise yourself as an ordinary person, you have to be busy both inside and outside. It's really hard on you."

Liu Ziguang's eyes were as big as copper bells: "You...are you awake? No, you are really awake. Have you remembered everything?"

Zeng Cheng smiled and nodded, "I have remembered everything. From the first time I met you by Hongze Lake, to entering the palace, forced marriage, and committing suicide by cutting my wrists, I have remembered everything in the past two years. I know

I am the sister of the current emperor, you are the famous Marquis of Zhenwu, and this is our child, God knows what titles you have given him."

Liu Ziguang's eyes really filled with tears this time. Unexpectedly, another stimulation cured Zeng Cheng's amnesia. He said excitedly: "That's great. I wonder how happy the Queen Mother and the Emperor will be when they find out.

"

Zeng Cheng said: "It's better not to let them know for the time being. I am the princess and you are the consort. According to the rules, I still can't live in your mansion. I have to build a separate mansion for the consort outside. It is very troublesome. I think in this alley

Life is pretty good, and besides, I don’t want Kuanghong to grow up coddled, I just want him to grow up in an ordinary family.”

Liu Ziguang said: "It's all up to you. Whatever you say will be whatever. However, someone has been sent to the palace to report that you are unconscious again. When the Queen Mother and the Emperor come, you just have to deal with it carefully."

Zeng Cheng nodded and said: "Of course." Suddenly he saw the furoshiki on the bed and said: "I'm afraid you were lying to me just now when you said that the fund has increased hundreds of times."

Liu Ziguang said: "Aren't we afraid that you will be stimulated again? Three thousand taels of silver is our family's financial foundation."

Zeng Cheng said: "Now that I have recovered my memory, I naturally won't care about these three thousand taels of silver, but the tens of thousands of people in the world who bought this scam fund will care. Every penny is saved with hard work."

Yes, the funds issued by the imperial court have actually fallen like this, and no one has come out to say anything. It is so chilling. You must not let them harm innocent people."

Liu Ziguang said: "I have already sent people to do it. When the emperor comes, we will do this... His words are worth ten thousand words."

Not long after, the Queen Mother and Zhu Youxiao arrived. The Queen Mother, dressed in casual clothes, rushed in and burst into tears: "My poor son." The Emperor also had a worried look on his face and kept sighing. When he saw that Zeng Cheng had already

After waking up, the two of them turned from worry to joy. They moved chairs and sat next to them to ask about the ins and outs of the matter.

Zeng Cheng bought a fund with 3,000 taels of silver and told the Queen Mother and the Emperor everything about how it turned into 17 taels in seven days. According to Liu Ziguang's instructions, he complained a lot to the court, saying that there were already many

The man committed suicide by jumping into a river or a building because he lost all his money. Hearing this, the Queen Mother was horrified and would cast her eyes on Zhu Youxiao from time to time.

Zhu Youxiao was also shocked. This was very different from the situation he knew. Didn't the officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs say that the fund issuance was quite stable and the people's purchase of funds increased? How could it be like this? The people were left bankrupt.

Speaking of which, there are so many suicides. Is it possible that in the prosperous age of the Apocalypse, people will be in dire straits?

At that moment, Zhu Youxiao stood up, pulled Liu Ziguang outside and asked: "Brother-in-law, what's going on?" Liu Ziguang replied: "I don't know the situation, but it is definitely not an option to continue like this. It is a troubled time now.

If this triggers a civil uprising, it will be difficult to handle, and the good situation will be ruined."

This is what Zhu Youxiao is most worried about. He murmured: "I was afraid of losing control, so I established the Securities Regulatory Commission to manage this industry. It would be a crime for these losers to be managed like this by me! If the emperor sister hadn't been involved,

I am still kept in the dark by them, brother-in-law, don't worry, I will handle this matter strictly when I get back."
