Old Madam Ye wanted to use a fake wedding to get Ye Jintang married.

Similarly, Imperial Noble Consort Dehui did not want to use money to help the Prince of Qin marry a princess.

Among the thirty-six loads of betrothal gifts, not even one was real; they were all imaginary numbers.

If we really count the money, it might not even be as much as the betrothal gift for a concubine's son in a marquis's mansion to marry a wife.

Mrs. Gan almost cried when she saw the gift list.

She knew that Noble Consort Dehui didn't like Prince Qin very much, but she didn't expect that she would actually make trouble over the betrothal gift.

Moreover, this was a loss that could not be told to anyone. The Marquis of Danyang Mansion did not dare to tell anyone about it.

If this matter were to be made public, not only would it bring shame to the Danyang Marquisate, it would also offend Imperial Noble Consort Dehui, and might even bring disgrace to the royal family.

In the end, no matter what, the Marquis of Danyang's Mansion would not end well.

"Let's go and see the old lady. The betrothal gifts sent by the Prince of Qin's Mansion are really shameless."

What else could Old Madam Ye do after looking at the gift list? She was so angry that her liver ached, but she had no other options.

"You are the one who caused all this trouble. If you could teach Yanran well, you would never let the sixth girl marry the King of Qin. And our mansion would never have to endure this."

"You can find a way to collect the 120-ton dowry for the sixth girl. If you can't, then reduce Yanran's dowry as well."

Mrs. Gan had gone through countless hardships to get to this point, so how could she give up halfway? Even if she had to grit her teeth, she would give Ye Jintang a dowry of 120 pieces.

The front yard was receiving the betrothal gifts sent by King Qin. Logically speaking, Ye Jintang, the bride-to-be, should also know the contents of the gift list.

As a result, after all the betrothal gifts were put into the warehouse, Ye Jintang had not seen the contents of the gift list.

However, a servant quietly handed in a letter from the corner gate, saying that it was from Prince Qin to Ye Jintang.

Looking at the sealed letter, Ye Jintang was confused.

She and the King of Qin had never had any contact before, so why did he send such a thick letter?

This is just so weird.

When the envelope was opened, what came into view was a stack of silver bills.

She counted carefully and found that there was exactly 100,000 taels of silver.

"I don't have much money, so I'll give this 100,000 taels of silver to the Sixth Miss first, as part of my betrothal gift. When I have more money in the future, I'll give it to the Sixth Miss."

Ye Jintang was stunned after reading these few short lines. She never expected that the King of Qin would privately give her 100,000 silver coins as a betrothal gift.

She tried hard to recall everything about the King of Qin in the book. Apart from the fact that he was a villain and cannon fodder, there were really many descriptions of him.

Especially when it comes to money, he seems to have always been very poor.

Especially after arriving in Ningchuanzhou, the text describes the royal palace in Ningchuanzhou as being so dilapidated that it was not even as good as a county government office. It took a long time to repair it after the King of Qin left.

Unfortunately, the King of Qin died not long after the repairs were completed.

Let's not talk about the silver for now. The fact that the King of Qin gave her silver was weird. It seemed completely inconsistent with the cold-blooded and unkind character of the King of Qin in the book.

"Lüzhu, what does the person who came to deliver the letter look like?"

"He looks young, without a beard, and looks like a young eunuch."

Luzhu thought about it carefully and said.

Ye Jintang was suspicious. If someone really wanted to cheat her, they wouldn't use 100,000 taels of silver to cheat her.

This is one hundred thousand taels of silver, which is a huge sum of money no matter where it is placed.

"Wuwei, take the banknote and verify its authenticity. If it is real, give it to my cousin and ask him to replace it for me."

"Yes."

Zhou Wuwei took the banknote and went out. He glanced at the flamboyant handwriting on the envelope and felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

His master ended up marrying someone else.

And he has accomplished nothing.

Just as Zhou Wuwei left, he heard voices coming from outside the courtyard gate.

Ye Yanran came over with the maids and servants who served her.

"Sister, why are you here? Your belly is getting bigger and bigger, so you should be careful. It's better not to wander around."

As soon as Ye Yanran entered the yard, Ye Jintang came out to greet her and gave her a fatal blow.

"I heard that the Prince of Qin's Mansion was delivering the betrothal gifts today, so I came here to congratulate my sixth sister."

"Thank you, sis."

Ye Yanran coming over at this time must be no good news. Ye Jintang didn't even bother to let her in and just stood in the yard without moving.

"Sixth sister, are you feeling very proud? I married the King of Qi as his princess, and you can also marry the King of Qin as his princess."

"What are you talking about, big sister? I'm not proud of it. This was all arranged by my grandmother."

Seeing that Ye Jintang looked like he knew nothing, Ye Yanran laughed softly.

She said that since the imperial decree granting the marriage came down, Ye Jintang had not responded at all.

It seems that just as she expected, Ye Jintang has no idea how powerful King Qin is.

"Do you think grandma is doing this for your own good? You are such a silly girl. You really don't know anything."

"Then let me tell you, the King of Qin was seriously injured. I heard that although the wound on his leg has almost healed, he will be a cripple in the future. His arm is permanently disabled, and he will never be able to hold a weapon in this life."

"Isn't this the cruelest thing? I also heard that the King of Qin was stimulated and his mental state was not good. He wanted to kill people at any time."

"Some people also say that the King of Qin loves to drink fresh human blood. I don't know how many maids and eunuchs in the King of Qin's palace have died."

"Sixth sister, if you marry him, will you be tortured to death by the King of Qin?"

Ye Yanran thought that she could scare Ye Jintang to tears by saying this, but in the end she didn't even frown.

"Big sister, you are not still holding a grudge against the King of Qi for looking at me twice more last time, so you come to me and say something nonsense. You are too narrow-minded."

Ye Jintang didn't pretend with Ye Yanran and confronted her directly.

Looking at the somewhat stupid Ye Yanran, Ye Jintang secretly complained in his heart that the aura of Ye Yanran as the protagonist in the original novel was too strong. How could she still be lucky? And a popular figure? Could men be blind? Could they not see through someone as stupid as her?

"You, you, what are you talking about? What does this have to do with the King of Qi?"

When Ye Yanran heard Ye Jintang mention Xiao Yi, she almost exploded with anger.

Ever since Xiao Yi met Ye Jintang, he had indeed mentioned her several times in front of her. Every time Xiao Yi mentioned her, she wished she could tear Ye Jintang to pieces.

"Sister, please don't get angry. You are pregnant now. If you get angry and something bad happens to you, the King of Qi might marry someone else as his principal wife."

Ye Jintang knew how to make people angry the most, and every word she said went straight to Ye Yanran's heart.

"Ye Jintang, you are really sharp-tongued. Come here, open your mouth. I want to teach Sixth Miss what "trouble comes from the mouth" means."

Several servants behind Ye Yanran rushed forward, wanting to show Ye Jintang some of their power.

They had never expected that the skinny and weak-looking Ye Jintang would kick the servant in front of them to the ground.

"My eldest sister is too bullying. I'm going to tell my grandmother."

Ye Jintang's tears came faster than those of an actress. He was arguing with Ye Yanran in one second, and in the next he was crying with tears in his eyes, feeling very aggrieved.

"Stop her."

When Ye Yanran saw that Ye Jintang was really going to complain, she immediately called for help.

She just came to deal with Ye Jintang and didn't want to bring the matter to the old lady's attention.
