Traveling through ancient times: starting with live streaming
Chapter 72 Price Reduction
"Ding, congratulations, the Nine-Tassel Crown transaction was successful, and I received a commission of two million taels."
"How much?" Zhou Chang shuddered.
Without opening your eyes, you can see a large amount of information has been added to the display.
【Level: Middle 93】
【Commission: Two】
【Order: 145】
Zhou Chang had been leaning on the chaise longue, but now he sat up straight, his heart still pounding.
She had been bored and dizzy all morning.
She was bored because Aunt Zhu had not allowed her to go out for the past two days and had been watching her very closely. Even if she wanted to go and pay her respects to Concubine Yi and hear some gossip, she couldn't.
She was feeling dizzy simply because she couldn't think of any idea. She originally thought that the Nine-Tassel Crown could be sold for a maximum of one million taels, so she still needed another one million taels. The emperor would never come to her place, so where could she get the red jade gold crown?
The prompt from the viewpoint system was a huge surprise: "This nine-tassel crown is actually worth two million taels. So I got a commission of ten million taels."
"Yes." The viewpoint system replied, "But I remind you that if you really want to take out a loan to upgrade your status, you cannot get a new loan before you have paid off the loan."
"Hmm..." Zhou Chang hesitated when he thought that the Minister of Justice Pei Li was an old man obsessed with power. "Show me the 'Nine Classes Ranking' again."
She was unwilling to spend so much money just to get an old man, and she didn't know when she could pay off the loan.
The viewpoint system is displayed as described.
Zhou Chang still stared at the top four or five lines.
[The Upper Nine Three: The Emperor, the Imperial Clan, the Princes...]
[The Upper Nine Four: Duke, Marquis, General, Prime Minister...]
[The Upper Nine Five: high officials, senior officials, saints...]
"How much is the value of Prince Yi last night?" The most ideal number is always "upper nine three". If the emperor is not enough, Zhou Chang thought of the prince he met for the first time last night.
The viewpoint system replied: "It was 20 million before, and it has now dropped to 15 million, and is still decreasing."
"Why?" Zhou Chang was surprised.
The viewpoint system replied: "This is the plane data assessment. His title is at risk of being downgraded, but due to incomplete data collection, it is still in progress."
Zhou Chang was tempted: "If he lowers it to 10 million, or 8 million, or even lower, then I can..."
"The prince with the lowest net worth, you also saw him last night, he is the twelfth prince Feng Suo. Because he is a minor, his rank is the same as that of a noble, and his lowest net worth is 10 million." The viewpoint system is not afraid of hitting Zhou Chang.
"That is to say, when Prince Yi's status drops to the lowest, it will be 10 million." Zhou Chang couldn't help but be moved.
The viewpoint system is rigorous: "Unless you are demoted to a commoner, your nobility status is gone."
Alas, it’s difficult.
Zhou Chang felt his head hurt even more and shouted outside: "Hongzhi, Hongzhi."
The young palace maid on duty outside heard it and called Hongzhi in.
"Hongzhi, help me comb my hair again and massage my head. My head is swollen." Zhou Chang ordered and sat down in front of the dressing table.
"Yes." Hongzhi went forward to take the comb, and then worriedly said, "Miss, you didn't catch a cold in the imperial garden last night. The imperial physician said that your throat has not fully recovered, and the most feared thing is catching a cold."
"No." Zhou Chang rubbed his temples and confirmed from the bronze mirror that no one was in the bedroom before whispering, "Hongzhi, go out and find out what happened last night. Did Prince Yi suffer any punishment?"
"Miss, didn't Aunt Zhu warn us not to interfere in this matter?" Hongzhi felt yesterday that the matter was too risky. She did not agree to do it and didn't even know why her young lady did it.
"You don't have to bother asking about this. Just go out for a walk and you'll hear everything." Zhou Chang was anxious to get the news. "It's inconvenient for me to go out. Otherwise, I wouldn't need you. Just go and pay your respects to Concubine Yi, and she'll probably know everything."
"I am afraid of trouble. It doesn't take much effort to find out something." Hongzhi combed Zhou Chang's long hair and pressed it on his head while pouting. "Miss, you don't know that Aunt Zhu questioned me again last night, asking why you were still by the koi pond so late at night. Is there anything else you haven't told me?"
"Did she scare you again?" Zhou Chang knew that Aunt Zhu had been in the palace for too long and was overly cautious in everything she did, but she was ultimately well-intentioned.
"Miss, what happened yesterday?" Hongzhi was still feeling frightened.
Zhou Chang had no way to answer and was about to make up a more reasonable excuse when someone suddenly knocked on the door.
Aunt Zhu brought two palace maids in to serve lunch.
The boring time passed really quickly, and the morning was over in the blink of an eye.
Hongzhi re-tied Zhou Chang's hair.
Aunt Zhu put the food on the table and sent the maids away: "My lady, I heard that His Majesty was furious about what happened last night, and His Royal Highness Prince Yi has been confined to his palace."
"Why? He didn't damage the imperial robe on purpose." Zhou Chang's heart began to hang in the air.
Aunt Zhu said, "I heard that His Majesty was in a bad mood last night when he learned that the crown had fallen into the water and the imperial robes had been damaged. He didn't say much, and at most he would fine His Royal Highness Prince Yi one year's salary."
"But what?" Zhou Chang couldn't help but ask.
"But..." Aunt Zhu made sure that no one was around and lowered her voice even more. "Everyone knew about what happened last night during the morning court today, and some court officials said it was an unlucky thing. After your majesty left the court, someone told your majesty that Prince Yi did not come to the palace to give fireworks to the twelfth prince, but to go to Huilan Garden to pay tribute to his biological mother privately."
"So what if we go to Huilan Garden to pay tribute to our biological mother?" Zhou Chang didn't understand.
Aunt Zhu explained: "Private worship in the palace is a taboo, and yesterday the Qing Sacrifice Hall was held, and your majesty has already worshipped the ancestors in the ancestral temple. It's just that the status of your Royal Highness Prince Yi's birth mother, Concubine Lan, is too low, and her tablet cannot be placed in the Concubine Palace. Some people say that Prince Yi is dissatisfied with this matter, so he wants to worship privately."
"Well, is the worship true?" Zhou Chang asked again.
Aunt Zhu shook her head and didn't know the details.
"Is someone trying to harm him?" Zhou Chang was a little worried about Prince Yi. If the whole thing was to be traced back, the cause was still with her. She didn't want to implicate others because of her "live streaming and selling goods".
Aunt Zhu thought about it and looked hesitant. "In theory, Concubine Lan's death anniversary is not during the Qing Festival. It should be some time away. Even if His Royal Highness Prince Yi wants to offer sacrifices, there is no need to do it in the abandoned Huilan Garden in the palace. It is said that when His Royal Highness Prince Yi built his mansion and moved out of the palace, he had already moved Concubine Lan's daily belongings out of the palace. Even if he wants to offer sacrifices, he can do it in his own palace. Why bother?"
"So that means there is nothing left? Did someone say this deliberately to frame him?" Zhou Chang became anxious.
Aunt Zhu shook her head again: "It's hard to say, but because of this incident, His Majesty summoned Prince Yi to the palace for questioning. As a result, somehow, the two of them quarreled. His Majesty was furious and ordered Prince Yi to return to the palace and lock him up, awaiting further punishment." "After living for so many years, I found that the only thing that kept me going was to charge my phone every day."
