My harem can't be this messy

"Oh, you serve King Jin, do you know when he will send Miss Lin into the palace?"

"Well, back to my mother, King Jin didn't intend to let her enter the palace, but wanted to buy a garden for her in Chang'an and place her there."

"Buying a garden?"

"Yes, I have heard what His Royal Highness Jin said with my own ears, and listened to what His Royal Highness said, not only to buy a garden, but also the best garden in Chang'an. Today, His Royal Highness arranged for Miss Lin to live in the Green Bamboo Garden, saying that for the time being I've wronged her."

"Here, the Green Bamboo Garden in Prince Jin's Mansion has wronged her. What kind of garden does Zhi'er want to build so that she won't be wronged?"

Princess Changle over there changed her face after hearing Chuntao's words, and finally looked at her mother.

"My queen, my third brother plans to buy a garden for Miss Lin, but he doesn't have any money. The queen mother paid for most of the expenses of Jinwang's mansion."

"All the money from Zhi'er's fiefdom was invested in Da Ci'en Temple, and his monthly salary is not much money. There is indeed a shortage of money to buy the manor!"

"Qiu Ju, I will take 2000 taels of silver from this palace for the King of Jin, and send it to Wanchun Hall. After all, Zhier is also working for the royal family, and this Miss Lin will also see the princesses and concubines in the future."

"Mother, Changle will also ask the slaves to take 2000 taels and send it over in a while. My place is much more generous."

"Then Yuzhang will also take 2000 taels and send it over!"

"Yuzhang, you can just send 1000 taels. The Tang family has a lot of things to do recently, and Shanzhi spends a lot of money on weekdays. His little bit of salary for the captain's son-in-law is not enough."

"Okay, Yuzhang listens to his mother!"

"I just don't know what size garden Zhi'er wants to build. Is 5000 taels enough?"

"Queen, why don't you just call your third brother over and ask?"

"Forget it, if he doesn't say anything, don't ask. This child didn't take the initiative to find the queen mother, but he just didn't want to ask me for money."

"Yes, the third brother has been sensible since he was a child. His mother was seriously ill back then. After she recovered, it was the third brother who proposed to build the Daci'en Temple for the mother and donated all his 15 years of feudal output to it. If not, he How could it be so tight there?"

"Your Majesty, can this servant have a word?"

"Say something!"

"Chuntao has been with His Royal Highness Prince Jin for the past few days. His Highness is looking for Miss Lin Ruyin, and Chun Tao has always been there. From Chuntao's point of view, His Royal Highness King Jin said that he wants to buy a manor for her, probably the top ones in Chang'an."

"Also, from the perspective of this servant, the most likely one to buy is the famous Chang'an Bamboo Garden, because Miss Lin Ruyin likes bamboo the most."

"Bamboo garden?"

"My queen, it's not a royal property."

"What is the valuation of Zhuyuan?"

"This is probably the most expensive garden in Chang'an. It's only a few hundred thousand taels of silver. Don't even think about it."

Empress Changsun's hands tightened unconsciously. It was several 10 taels of silver. Although she was a queen, it was difficult for her to take out so much silver all at once.This silver can only be withdrawn from her queen's small treasury, but cannot be transferred from the national treasury.

Princess Changle and Princess Yuzhang are also frowning. They both have fiefs, and they are not small, and they are also the most prosperous counties, but it is impossible to spend several 10 taels all at once.

At their current status and status, their daily expenses are already very high. Marrying into the eldest grandson's family and the Tang family actually added a lot of expenses to them.

A few 10 taels of silver was still the lowest valuation, and they couldn't get it out.

Seeing that the empress and the two princesses had serious expressions, Chuntao stood there, feeling the pressure from all directions in the Lizheng Palace, and dared not say a word or move any more.

Empress Changsun stood up suddenly, walked all the way to the front hall of the Lizheng Hall, and then stood in front of the front hall of the Lizheng Hall, looking in the direction of Chang'an City.

Empress Changsun suddenly pointed to the most prosperous main axis of Chang'an.

The two princesses who followed naturally saw it, and the queen mother was referring to the Da Ci'en Temple.

They instantly understood what the queen mother meant. How was the Da Ci'en Temple built back then?King Jin's 15-year feudal output is not enough to build the huge temple. The temple was led by King Jin, and all the princes and princesses donated together. All the output of the two-year fiefdom was donated to build the Da Ci'en Temple.

Even the young Hengshan imperial sister, the output of Hengshan county was set aside for two years.

This is filial piety, no one will not donate, because that temple was built for the blessing of the mother.

At this time, although things were different, this time it was King Jin who took the lead.

What happened in the 11th year of Zhenguan is similar to the situation at this time.

Then why did Miss Lin invite King Jin out of the mountain? Isn't it for the princesses and concubines, or for them to receive better diagnosis and treatment, not because of some rules in the palace, which delayed the illness.

The reason for all this, in the final analysis, is the kindness of King Jin.

Does King Jin have to rack his brains to buy a bamboo garden for Miss Lin?Want King Jin to frown?

"Qiu Ju, spread the word, but don't let it go, this matter is for their own benefit, I want to see how they do it."

"Yes, empress, servant girl obeys!"

Chapter 88 Another Crowdfunding

Standing behind the queen and princess, Chuntao bowed her head, but she couldn't hide a smile on her face.

With the backing of the empress, His Royal Highness King Jin would not have to worry so much about money.

"Chuntao, step back, and take care of King Jin with Xia He."

"Yes, the maidservant respectfully obeys the imperial edict."

The palace is said to be very big, but it is not too big.

In the palace, the queen's maidservant played the wind. Naturally, the wind soon spread all over the Sangong and Sixth Courtyard, and every corner of the palace.

Before twilight, even the palaces of the princes and dukes got the news.

His Royal Highness the King of Jin wants to buy a manor for a goddess doctor, who will treat the nobles in the palace in the future.

Naturally, the news about King Jin's lack of money was also spread, and about the matter of Da Ci'en Temple, whoever was not aware of any dignitaries in the palace.

King Jin had no money, and all the output from the fiefdom was invested in the Da Ci'en Temple. Naturally, he was short of money, and the shortage was severe.

When everyone got the news, they naturally waited and watched first. At this time, no one rushed to take the first shot. Most of them were watching other people's reactions. In this kind of matter, there must always be someone who takes the lead. This is the herd mentality.

In the imperial palace, there is a luxurious palace. Concubine Yang called her youngest son Li Yin, the king of Shu, into the palace, and scolded her all the time. The words were not suitable for her status.

But Concubine Yang is really angry. Just today, she got the news early in the morning that her youngest son got into trouble again. He beat an official of the Ministry of Punishment in the street. His nose was bruised and his face was swollen.

The reason was that the official couldn't bear to see the king of Shu molesting the girls in the street, so he sighed, but the king of Shu happened to see it.With the temperament of Shu Wang Li Yin, it is natural to catch him and beat him, otherwise he would really think that the followers around him, the prince, are all vegetarians.

Concubine Yang was so angry that she couldn't stop scolding, she felt that the scolding was not enough, so she took her own family law and greeted Li Yin ruthlessly.

Tired of the beating, Concubine Yang abandoned her family law and looked at herself as a villain.

"One day you will piss off your concubine mother to death!"

At this time, Concubine Yang was so angry that she no longer had many worries. You must know that ordinary people are taboo to talk about life and death at this time, let alone with Concubine Yang's identity.

After Li Yin, king of Shu, returned to Chang'an, Concubine Yang didn't live a single day of her birthday, and it really caused harm wherever she went.It's not as good as a beast!

"Mother Concubine is just an ordinary official, so there is no need for Mother Concubine to be so angry."

Shu Wang Li Yin looked at the furious mother and concubine, but he was not willing to admit his mistake. The father sent him to relegate him, but in exchange for Shu Wang's relegation, he would be relegated, and he would not kill me, let alone with the mother concubine.

If you hit, you can hit, if you scold, you can scold, and you won't beat to death.

"Get out, wait for your father to come back, let your father demote you to Qiongzhou this time, I will be annoyed when I see you now."

"Mother and concubine, the emperor of Qiongzhou hasn't been there yet, so it's time to go for a walk!"

Concubine Yang's lips trembled in anger, and she was about to go to pick up the family law on the ground, but the king of Shu over there ran away as soon as she saw it.Although he is not afraid of being beaten, it is naturally the best to be able to suffer less family law.

Looking at the fleeing Shu King Li Min, Concubine Yang supported her forehead, her body was a little bit crumbling, and the maid beside her hurriedly helped Concubine Yang.

"Niezi, Niezi! How could this palace give birth to such a naughty son!"

"Your Majesty, your body is important! Don't be hurt by anger."

"Hey, if this evil son is half as sensible as the Ninth Prince, I would be willing to shorten my lifespan by ten years."

The Nine Princes mentioned by Concubine Yang are naturally Jin Wang Li Zhi, who is the ninth son of Emperor Taizong, and if it is about concubines, he is the third son.So it is right to call the third prince and the ninth prince.Generally, princesses and princes who are first relatives are naturally called first relatives, and third brothers and third emperors are called brothers.When he went to other princes and princesses, Li Zhi became the Nine Emperor Brother or Nine Brother, or he was called Nine Brother affectionately.

"Your Majesty, you mentioned the Ninth Prince. There is an official news in the palace today about the Ninth Prince."

"Oh, what's the matter?"

"The Ninth Prince found a female doctor surnamed Lin among the people. He heard that Zheng Linhe from Chang'an was inferior to her because of her excellent medical skills. The Ninth Prince wanted her to consult and treat the concubines and princesses in the palace."

"This is a good thing. The imperial physicians of the imperial medical department have delayed many concubines' illnesses over the years. The misdiagnosed concubines have brought a lot of grievances to this Tai Chi palace. If you are a female doctor, you don't have to follow those palace rules. gone."

"Qingxia also thinks it's a good thing. Women see a doctor for women, so naturally they don't need to hang silk to check their pulse, or use a brocade handkerchief. But..."

"But what? You finish what you have to say, and you are still hesitating here in this palace."

"His Royal Highness the King of Jin wants to set up a manor in Chang'an for Miss Lin, which will be specially used to treat princesses and concubines, but money is tight."

"Which garden does King Jin want to buy?"

"Qingxia listens to the wind, it seems to be a bamboo garden."

"Zhuyuan, how can King Jin have money to buy there? All the money from his fiefdom went to Da Ci'en Temple, and that little monthly salary is not even enough to maintain the normal expenses of King Jin's residence."

"Ma'am, that's not the case."

Concubine Yang looked at her closest maid, and thought about it for a while.

"Qingxia, how much money is there in this palace?"

"Go back to your mother's words, there are more than 2000 taels."

"Take 500 taels and send it to Wanchun Hall, and say it is my heart."

"Yes, servant girl will do it now."

In the evening, from Concubine Yang, the heart was sent to Wanchun Palace for the fourth time. This was also the first sum of money sent to Wanchun Palace besides the queen and the two princesses.

The news spread very quickly, and in a blink of an eye, the news that Concubine Yang sent someone to send someone to Wanchun Palace to send 500 taels of silver spread throughout the harem.

Concubine Yang gave it away, and some people couldn’t sit still. The news came from the maids of the Lizheng Palace. The meaning of the empress is very clear. The empress herself also sent 2000 taels to the Wanchun Palace. Also sent, how can they sit still.

Several of the most noble concubines in the palace naturally gathered together, Concubine Wei Guifei, Concubine Yin, Concubine Dexian and Concubine Xian discussed a little bit, each of them took out 500 taels of silver, and sent someone to send it to Wanchun Palace.

The empress gave King Jin 2000 taels, so naturally they won't exceed 2000 taels.Since Concubine Yang had already sent 500 taels, they naturally took this number.This is orderly respect and inferiority, pushing boats along the way.

After living in the palace for a long time, the most important thing is to abide by the rules, without rules you can't get anywhere.

When it was dusk, the first-rank and first-rank nobles in the palace had already sent all their silver to the Wanchun Palace where King Jin temporarily lived.

In just one day, Li Zhi suddenly had 1 taels of silver in his hands. At this time, there were no bank notes, and the money sent was all cash. So much money was piled up in the Wanchun Palace, and Li Zhi saw it in his eyes. It's all silver.

Sure enough, the color of silver makes people like it, and it's no wonder that later generations like gold and silver jewelry so much.

Chapter 89

Li Zhi looked at the money packed in several wooden boxes, this was the first time he saw so much money.

"Chuntao, come here!"

Chun Tao walked away from Li Zhi, and Li Zhi looked at her.

"How much silver can you buy the bamboo garden?"

"Your Highness, Chuntao heard from the empress and the two princesses that the minimum cost is 10 taels. The bamboo garden is already the top manor in Chang'an."

"Do you know who owns the bamboo garden?"

"Just now the eldest princess was checked by someone. It is the garden of Qinghe Cui's family, the second miss of Cui's family."

"Qinghe Cui's family!"

Li Zhi knocked a few times on the wooden box containing the silver, and it was another family with five surnames and seven wangs, the Cui family in Qinghe, the Cui family in Boling, the Cui family and the Li family, and there were also two counties. Representative of Shandong gentry.

In the sixth year of Zhenguan, Gao Shilian, who was then the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, was ordered to re-edit the "Clan Chronicles", and it was completed in the 12th year of Zhenguan, and the Cui family in Shandong was still ranked first.

Although Emperor Taizong blamed Gao Shilian after watching it, it can also be seen from it the status of the Shandong gentry in the early Tang Dynasty.

The bamboo garden is actually the property of the second lady of the Cui family in Qinghe, and it seems that they are going to deal with this Shandong gentry.

Li Zhi knocked on the wooden box seven times in total, and then raised his hand.

"Did the second miss of the Cui family in Zhuyuan ever intend to sell?"

"In the past, the second miss of the Cui family wanted to sell this garden in the 13th year of Zhenguan, but she couldn't agree on the price, so she put it on hold."

"How much was the asking price?"

"32 taels."

Li Zhi looked at Chun Tao, raised his hand, and knocked the girl's forehead.
