A Precious Pearl in the Imperial City

"What is it?" Chen Wang looked at the large cloak opened by Jiuzhu, and there was a carved wooden box hidden inside.

"Hey." Jiuzhu smiled mysteriously, and pulled the big cloak outside, trying to hide himself and Wang Chen as much as possible: "Your Highness, open it and take a look."

"Then I opened it?" King Chen remembered his bad behavior of cricketing his teacher with a gift box when he was a child: "There is nothing else in it, right?"

"There are so many." Jiuzhu touched the box reluctantly: "This is something I've saved for a long time. Please open it quickly so that no one can see it."

Under Jiuzhu's expectant gaze, Wang Chen opened the box and was stunned when he saw the contents inside.

Broken silver, silver bills, golden hairpins, and even golden peanuts for the younger generation by the elders, as well as a few copper coins.

Copper coin... is also a treasure?

"this is?"

"It's for you." Jiuzhu put the wooden box in Wang Chen's arms: "These hairpins are all pure gold, which is more valuable. There are also these broken silver and silver bills, which add up to two to three hundred taels. You take it first. Use it, I'll bring you money when I enter the palace next time."

"What do you bring me money for?"

The wooden box is heavy, it should be Ming Xiaozhu's possessions.

"I've heard about what happened in the palace." Jiuzhu lowered his voice: "Your Majesty has stopped paying you for half a year and won't let the empress give you anything."

The emperor said in a word that he would definitely not spend any money on his highness' salary. Your Royal Highness is used to eating fine clothes and clothes on weekdays, how can I live without money?

Wang Chen's hand holding the wooden box moved slightly, and the broken silver rolled in the wooden box, making a pleasant sound.

"Give me the money, what do you do?"

"Recently, my sixth brother asked me to run errands for him. I should be able to make a small amount of money. I don't have to worry about other food and drink expenses." Jiuzhu carefully calculated how to spend this month: "The New Year is coming soon, the elders in the family should be able to Give me New Year’s money. So don’t worry, I won’t be short of money to spend."

"Will you support me for the next six months?" Wang Chen held the wooden box and chuckled.

"Well, I will support you." Jiuzhu nodded: "I just want to wrong your Highness, save some flowers."

Wang Chen looked at the young girl squatting in front of him, her heart beating like broken silver in a box, and she was jumping loudly and fast, and even noisy his ears.

He rubbed his ears: "I have money, how can I spend your little girl's money."

Jiuzhu held his face in both hands and looked at Wang Chen grievously: "His Royal Highness, do you really want it?"

"No." Wang Chen put the wooden box back on her knee: "You take it back and spend it yourself."

Other little girls go shopping for rouge gouache. Does his little girl want to look at her with eyesight?

"Okay." Jiuzhu lowered her head, she picked up the relief on the wooden box: "Then I'm going to the imperial concubine."

"Wait." Wang Chen grabbed her hand and sighed.

Jiuzhu looked at him with big watery eyes.

"We are one and half?" Wang Chen opened the box: "You keep the golden hairpin, I took the silver ticket, the broken silver... Let's split the half, okay?"

It turns out that if you don't want a little girl's money, you will feel guilty.

"Okay." Jiuzhu nodded happily: "Gold hairpins are also divided into two for you. The denomination of the silver bill is too small for your highness to spend."

"All right, Jinchai will also divide me into two." Wang Chen was relieved when he saw Jiuzhu really happy. The girl's mood changed so fast that it couldn't match the day of June.

Emperor Longfeng stood there in silence, watching his son divide the money with the little girl. One for you, one for me, and the coins are evenly distributed.

"The box is also for you, Sister Vernal Equinox said, this kind of wood is the most valuable." Jiuzhu poked the golden hairpin into the hair bun: "After New Year's Eve, both the salaries and the new year's money are in hand, I will give your highness the silver again."

Wang Chen helped her adjust the position of the golden hairpin, and said slowly: "Okay."

Anyway, she would be happy.

"What are you doing here?" Emperor Longfeng waited for a long time, finally waiting for them to divide the money, and slowly walked behind them.

"Your Majesty?" Jiuzhu quickly took the wooden box in Wang Chen's hand, and got up to salute Emperor Longfeng: "The courtier please greet your Majesty."

"Father." Wang Chen made a message to Emperor Longfeng: "Why are you here?"

"Come and see you guys." Emperor Longfeng glanced at his son's wallet on his waist, and smiled gently at Jiuzhu: "Jiuzhu, what are you playing with Duqing here?"

"Back to your majesty, the courtier got two new golden hairpins, and want to show her." Jiuzhu lowered his eyelids, embarrassed to look at Emperor Longfeng. As the courtier's daughter, she actually lied to your majesty, she was guilty.

"Yeah." Emperor Longfeng nodded and turned to Liu Zhongbao: "There are several sets of jewellery in my private library. Take them to the Mingyue Palace and let the imperial concubine and Jiuzhu wear them."

"Thank your Majesty." Jiuzhu became even more guilty. She lied to her. His Majesty also rewarded her and his mother with jewelry. She was guilty!

Seeing Jiuzhu's downcast, ashamed and ashamed look, Wang Chen couldn't help but say: "Father, don't tease the girl, she is still young."

Emperor Longfeng looked at his son with a smile.

Wang Chen gave a dry cough, and the guard didn't speak beside Jiuzhu.

"You haven't seen each other for a long time, and we are walking around together, I will go back to Taiyang Palace first." Emperor Longfeng glanced at Zhang Sixth Palace and turned to leave.

When Emperor Longfeng left, Jiuzhu let out a long sigh of relief and whispered to the king Chen: "Fortunately, your Majesty did not find that I secretly brought you the silver."

Wang Chen lovingly touched her brain: "Let's go, I'll walk with you, and send you to Mingyue Palace."

Jiuzhu touched the place where King Chen had touched: "His Royal Highness, are you still used to living in the Sixth Palace?"

"It's okay, but it's a bit narrow, not as comfortable as the palace."

"Oh." Jiuzhu nodded clearly. Her Highness was wronged. She pointed to the wooden box: "Your Highness, let your servant bring it back to your yard first."

"Okay." Chen Wang called a little eunuch, and when he reached out to receive the wooden box, Jiuzhu had already put the box in the little eunuch's hand: "Trouble little father-in-law."

"Little slave dare not." The little **** stepped back holding the wooden box and looked back when he walked into the courtyard gate. The girl Ming family didn't know what she said, but her highness looked at girl Ming with tenderness in her eyes.

The hidden guard in the dark finally couldn't help but laugh silently after Wang Chen and the future Princess Chen left, covering their mouths, laughing so that the branches trembled and the leaves rustled.

Hahahahahaha, His Royal Highness Tang Chen Wang unexpectedly asked his fiancee to secretly take money to support him.

Smiling and smiling, he suddenly stopped smiling.

The court lady, who went around such a big circle, risked offending the emperor, but also sent her silver pair to the palace, this kind of affection...

Not only did he not want to laugh, he was also a little sour.

"Ming Xiaozhu." Wang Chen looked at Jiuzhu briskly: "There are only eight days left before New Year's Eve."

There are forty days left, which is the day of his wedding to her.

"Yeah!" Jiuzhu nodded happily: "Mother said, when the Chinese New Year is over, my brother will be back."

Only then did Wang Chen remember that Ming Jiuzhu also had an older brother. If he remembers correctly, Yun Yanze admires Ming Jiuzhu's brother very much.

What is his future eldest brother's name?

Ming... Ming Jiyuan?

Reading a poem from far away is better than reading ten thousand books.

Many people say that Ming Jiyuan’s talent could have taken the first place in the palace exam. It's just that Ming's family has already produced two champions, one of which is Tanghua. If he were to be ranked first in high school, it would attract a lot of dissatisfaction, so the court deliberately suppressed his ranking and let him take the pass.

Chuan He, the fourth place in the palace examination, and the top second place, is still an unattainable ranking for many scholars in the world.

He had never dealt with such scholars before, and he didn't know if his future eldest brother would have an opinion on him?

People who generally admire Yun Yanze don't seem to like him very much.

"Brother Ling, do you know my marriage contract with you?" Wang Chen had a fever on his cheeks: "What does he like on weekdays, when he comes back, this king... should also pick him up."

"You should have known it." Jiuzhu stopped, biting the corner of his lip and thinking.

"Don't bite." Chen Wang stretched out his fingers, and gently rubbed the corners of her lips with his fingers.

"Huh?" Jiuzhu looked at him blankly.

"No, nothing." Chen Wang clenched his hands into a fist, his back behind his back, his cheeks even hotter: "It's just to make you stop biting your lip, it's yourself that hurts."

"Oh." Jiuzhu licked her lips with the tip of her tongue: "It's not broken."

Wang Chen looked at her lips and turned his head, his cheeks completely turned into a burning cloud.

"His Royal Highness, what's the matter with you?" Jiuzhu ran to him, "Blushing?"

King Chen turned his face to the other side: "No, you are mistaken, because the king's cloak is too red."

Jiuzhu ran around Wang Chen to the other side, and said seriously: "It's really red, it has nothing to do with Dacloak."

"Don't talk anymore." Wang Chen stretched out his hand to cover her mouth: "Otherwise this king, this king..."

What can he do with her?

You can't hit, and you can't scold.

With big eyes, long eyelashes, and curved willow eyebrows, when he smiled and looked at him, he looked like a puppy, even if he was a beast, he couldn't say a word about this kind of little girl.

He had never realized so clearly that he had no way to get Ming Jiuzhu.

He, Yun Duqing, seems to be overwhelmed.

Wang Chen released his hand and sighed.

Jiuzhu stared at him and blinked, then blinked again.

"Whatever you want to say, just say it." Wang Chen raised his head and looked up at the sky: "This king, I've got it."

Jiuzhu stood on tiptoe, stretched out his hand and touched Wang Chen's forehead.

Wang Chen looked down at her.

"The forehead is not hot." Jiuzhu retracted his hand: "His Royal Highness does not need to be sick."

"Yeah." Chen Wang lowered his eyelids, with long eyelashes, like a butterfly with wings spread out.

"The slave servant has seen His Royal Highness Chen Wang and the head of Ming County."

Jiuzhu looked at the court lady who was saluting: "You are the female official's sister last time, how are you doing?"

"Thank you for your concern, the maidservant is fine." The white peony gave Jiuzhu a big gift: "The maid of the county is great kindness, and the maidservant will remember it in his heart."

"It's fine if people are fine." Jiuzhu waved his hand: "I just asked someone to ask you for your pulse and get medicine."

The white peony gave a big gift in silence. The county lord of Ming didn't know how difficult it was for the eunuchs to get medicine from the hospital, and how many eunuchs died of illness in the palace every year.

"It's really okay, do you want someone to show you again?" Jiuzhu remembered how she saw this female officer that day, and she is still very surprised.

White Peony shook his head, hurriedly bowed to Wang Chen and Jiuzhu and left.

"Why is she walking in such a hurry?" Jiuzhu found that the back of the other party looked a lot thinner.

"She is the first-class maid of Lanxu Palace. You are the future princess of this king. Of course you can't talk to you." Wang Chen raised an eyebrow and sneered: "There is no shortage of people in the palace who are gentle on the surface and hate the mother and concubine in their hearts."

"Will they not like such a beautiful and kind mother?" Jiuzhu said with emotion, "How picky are the people in the palace?"

Wang Chen smiled and shook his head.

Right now, beauty and kindness are of little use.
