The capital is a melon field, I happily eat melons

With Lin Mo, the entire atmosphere in the court is different.

The atmosphere in the previous few days was a bit heavy, and they also felt it was too quiet.

Although this little ancestor sometimes just takes a nap here, she seems very lively even when she is just standing here.

Lin Mo's eyes rolled around, and he asked Xiao Bai in his heart: "During the time I was sick, have you found any delicious gossip? Tell me one and let me hear it."

Bai Xiao: [Okay, then what gossip do you want to hear? There are only so many gossips in Beijing. A few things have indeed happened recently.]

After hearing what Bai Xiao said, some people who had recently experienced family problems suddenly became more courageous.

Lin Mo: [Let’s talk about the old prince. Didn’t he come back to pay back the money? He owed so much money to others, but the emperor doesn’t care at all. ]

The emperor sitting on the throne twitched his lips when he heard this. How could he not care? He didn't know how he had survived these decades.

He was just a prince at first! An unpopular prince who had just married a wife with great difficulty.

Who knew that this imperial uncle was so shameless and actually set his sights on him? Was it easy for him to save such a small amount of money? He did whatever he could to make money and finally saved such a small amount of money.

When the emperor's uncle borrowed money from him, he really didn't think too much about it. Who knew that this person would never pay it back.

The most unexpected thing is that after the emperor's uncle left the capital, the previous emperor died not long after, and he inexplicably ascended the throne. The money in his pocket was looted, but he still ascended the throne all of a sudden.

After becoming emperor, he still thought that there must be money in the treasury and he should not have to worry. As a result, the previous emperor left him an empty shell.

He had to use his own money to subsidize the national treasury. He had just been cheated out of more than half of his money, and now he had to continue to subsidize the national treasury. To be honest, if he had not had a better mentality at the time, he really wanted to hang himself with his belt at the door of the treasury.

No one else can be an emperor as qualified as he is!

Bai Xiao began to tell the story of the old prince: [You have no idea how funny this old prince is. When he went to deliver money to some families, they beat him out. When he came back, the emperor thought he had seen the wrong person.]

Lin Mo: [Is his return so shocking? ]

Bai Xiao: [That's right. Many people thought he died outside. After all, so many years have passed. Who would have thought that he was not only alive but also made so much money doing business outside. When the emperor knew that he made so much money, he discussed with the prince and others to rob his treasury.]

The Emperor and the Crown Prince: ...

What I mean is, can you please give us some face?

Lin Mo laughed in his heart, [I think the emperor and the prince are quite honest. The emperor has a very good temper. If I was cheated of so much money by someone and they came back decades later, I would just kick them away without saying anything.]

Emperor: You think I don’t want to, but he is my uncle after all!

The emperor was not favored when he was a child, and the old prince took care of him for a long time when he was a child, giving him money and food. He also often mentioned his existence in front of the late emperor, asking the late emperor not to forget his son. It can be said that it was not the late emperor but the old prince who played the role of father in his heart.

If the old prince had not often mentioned him in front of the late emperor, he would have been forgotten by the late emperor long ago. A forgotten prince would be unknown even if he died.

So when such a respected elder asked him to borrow money, he really didn't think too much about it and just told him all his information.

Bai Xiao: [It is impossible to kick him. The old prince holds a different position in the emperor's heart. When the emperor was a child and couldn't take care of himself, the old prince had been secretly helping him.]

[Let's just say that although this old prince is not very good, he has a good heart. The previous emperor had many sons, many of whom were not favored. The old prince took care of those children to the best of his ability. The current emperor and Prince Xin can be said to have been raised by the old prince.]

[Because he is an elder whom he has always respected, the emperor allowed the old prince to borrow so much money. 】

When the ministers heard this, they didn't know what to say.

I can only say that the old prince is really a weird person. The late emperor was actually quite indulgent towards his younger brother. The late emperor was cruel and ruthless, and he never showed mercy to his brothers.

However, he didn't care much about the old prince, but he certainly never hurt him. Maybe it was because the old prince's image in the outside world was that of a playboy who liked men and didn't care about state affairs.

However, Lin Mo was particularly curious after hearing what Bai Xiao said: [Xiao Bai, since you said that the emperor and Prince Xin were both raised by the old prince, why didn't the old prince borrow money from Prince Xin. ]

At this moment, Prince Xin, who was standing not far away, sighed in his heart.

You have to have money to borrow. Although the emperor is not favored, he has been making money and has saved so much money by himself. He does not have the ability to make money nor the brains.

Bai Xiao couldn't help but smiled and replied: [If the old prince wants to borrow money, then Prince Xin must have money. When Prince Xin was a prince, he was even less favored than the emperor, and had even less money than the emperor.]

[The old prince, don't even think about borrowing money. If he goes to see Prince Xin, he will probably have to pay for it. How can he borrow money? ]

Prince Xin: ...Why are you saying this? He is not that poor.

Lin Mo looked at Prince Xin who was standing not far away with a gentle temperament. He was an honest man, indeed an honest man!

The emperor sitting on the throne couldn't help but look at his younger brother. He thought he was the poorest prince, but he didn't expect his younger brother to be even poorer. Suddenly, he felt a little comforted.

Bai Xiao continued: [You don't know how poor Prince Xin was at the beginning. He had no interest in the throne. He only thought about how to make his life better every day. Whenever he ran out of money, he would go to the old prince. This man couldn't say good things. He just looked at the old prince pitifully until the old prince gave him money.]

The emperor slapped his thigh, wondering why he hadn't thought of this.

He should have gone to see his uncle more often. He was too concerned about his reputation. He was young at that time!

Everyone looked at Prince Xin with complicated eyes. They didn't expect that someone as honest as you were like this when you were young. You are quite thick-skinned.

Prince Xin had an embarrassed look on his face. There was nothing he could do about it. It was because he was poor in the beginning.

He also had to support his wife. Although he was not married at that time, he and his wife were in love with each other, so he had to have some money to buy gifts for her.
