Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne

"Your Highness, they've already left!"

In the backyard of the palace, Zhao Yu came to report.

Chu Ning raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Did you hear what you said before you left?"

Zhao Yu's mouth twitched, and after a moment's hesitation, he replied, "Many people said they would go home as soon as possible to find some treasures to send to you."

baby?

A smile appeared on Chu Ning's face. What he wanted was the treasure.

"Very good. Next, I will wait for them to give me some good things!"

So many young men want to marry Feng Mulan, so the gifts they give must be very valuable.

When the time comes, I can sell it and I will definitely get a lot of money.

With money, you will have the confidence to go to the front line.

War relies on money. Otherwise, who would risk their life for a powerless prince?

"Humph, so you agreed to this for their baby!"

Suddenly, Feng Mulan's voice appeared in Chu Ning's ears.

Chu Ning was stunned, turned around and saw Shen Wanying and Feng Mulan walking out of the house.

Chu Ning laughed awkwardly and touched his nose: "Why are you in my room?"

Feng Mulan rolled her eyes and said, “If I wasn’t in your room, how could I hear your true feelings?

Humph, I asked you to choose a husband for me, and you actually want to take advantage of the opportunity to make money?"

Chu Ning glanced at Shen Wanying and found that she had a calm face, with no sign of joy or anger, and no intention of speaking.

Good man, you always blame yourself for everything.

It was obviously Shen Wanying's idea!

However, given the relationship between Feng Mulan and Shen Wanying, it is certainly impossible to put the blame on Shen Wanying.

This Shen Wanying actually gave herself such a difficult problem.

Chu Ning rolled his eyes and chuckled, "You said you were going to choose a husband, but Miss Feng probably doesn't want to get married yet, right?"

Feng Mulan raised her eyebrows: "Of course I don't want to get married!"

What I want is your words!

Chu Ning chuckled and said, "I can help you achieve your wish, Miss Feng, but the price is that I will take the treasures from these people."

Of course, I can't do this favor for free.

Feng Mulan's eyes lit up: "Do you really have a way to keep me from getting married?"

"Of course!"

Chu Ning patted his chest and assured: "I am the prince, how could I lie to you? Besides, given your relationship with Wanying, I will not lie to you."

Feng Mulan, who originally didn't quite believe it, hesitated for a moment and turned to look at Shen Wanying.

"Okay, for Wanying's sake, I believe you this time!"

Feng Mulan gritted her teeth and said, "But if you break your promise, I will take back everything they gave you."

Chu Ning laughed: "Don't worry, as long as you don't want to get married, I will never let anyone marry you."

After a pause, he looked at Shen Wanying and said with a smile: "Thank you, Princess, for giving me this opportunity to make money."

Shen Wanying looked calm and composed: "Don't be happy, Prince. Although these young masters are not very smart, the people above them are not fools."

He is an old fox who has been in the court for many years, and he may be able to see through Chu Ning's plan.

Chu Ning shrugged: "Even if they see through my plan, they have no choice but to send gifts. After all, none of them wants Feng Mulan to marry someone else."

The daughter of the Vice Minister of War, this is the best opportunity to win over the Vice Minister of War.

Even if they couldn't marry Feng Mulan themselves, they would never let Feng Mulan marry someone else.

So even if the other party knew that Chu Ning wanted to make money, they had to send gifts.

This is an open conspiracy with no solution!

Shen Wanying looked at Chu Ning deeply.

In fact, she originally just wanted to test Chu Ning and see if Chu Ning was really that powerful.

Chu Ning's current handling method was indeed beyond her expectations.

She believed that Chu Ning would use his status as a prince and his authority as a prince to force Feng Mulan to marry someone he liked, and use this to establish good relations with the forces behind the other party.

Unexpectedly, Chu Ning had no such idea at all, and instead used this incident to make money.

This guy is such a money-grubber!

"Since Your Highness has a solution, I will leave this matter to you."

Shen Wanying smiled indifferently, took Feng Mulan and turned to leave.

Chu Ning looked at the two people's backs as they left and laughed: "After this is done, I will treat you to a meal!"

"Your Highness, please find a way to solve the issue of military pay." Shen Wanying left a word and disappeared from sight with Feng Mulan.

Chu Ning, who was originally quite happy, suddenly got a headache when he heard the word "military pay".

He has actually been thinking about this issue these days.

Although tens of thousands of taels of silver were extorted, it was still far from enough to pay the military salaries on the front line.

If he doesn't find a way to get some money and just goes to the front line, who would listen to him?

Shaking his head, Chu Ning sighed, "As for the military pay, it all depends on how much money those guys can spend."

Marrying the Minister of War is such a huge temptation of benefits, the gifts those people give shouldn’t be too bad, right?

Sure enough, that night, the Prince's Mansion became lively.

Late at night, the stars are twinkling and the full moon is hanging high in the sky, reflecting the clear frost on the ground.

The gate of Penglai Palace was as lively as it was during the day, with many carriages gathered at the gate.

No one dared to delay the marriage of Feng Mulan. After an entire afternoon of preparation, these young masters came to Chu Ning personally with gifts.

As soon as the two sides met, tension immediately arose.

"Huh, isn't the coral Captain He gave too ordinary?"

"Although Doctor Zhao's pair of golden lions are not ordinary, they are too cliché."

"Tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect you to give me these things. You really underestimate His Royal Highness the Prince!"

"You're not ashamed to say that. Didn't you just give me a pair of night-shining pearls?"

In the living room of the palace, everyone couldn't stand each other, and they immediately started quarreling as soon as they disagreed.

For a while, there was constant noise in the hall.

Fortunately, Chu Ning came at this time!

"His Highness has arrived!"

"See Your Highness!"

Chu Ning yawned, looking very sleepy: "No need to be polite, everyone. I wonder why you came to my mansion so late at night?"

Someone immediately stood up, holding up the fist-sized night-shining pearl in his hand and said with a smile: "I heard that Your Highness will be going to the front line soon, so my Liu family specially presented you with the night-shining pearl as a token of our appreciation."

Someone takes the lead and others immediately follow.

"Your Highness, you have served the country. Although my Wang family cannot fight on the battlefield, we are willing to do our part. This blood stone is dedicated to Your Highness!"

"Your Highness disregarded his own safety, which is truly a role model for us. To show respect, my Zhao family offers you 10,000 taels of silver!"

"Your Highness is very righteous. This priceless calligraphy and painting is the most appropriate gift for Your Highness!"

People are not fools. They have to find a legitimate reason for giving gifts, otherwise it will be difficult to explain once it gets out.

This is the best reason for Chu Ning to go to the front line.

Chu Ning glanced at the gifts these people brought and felt secretly happy.

Although the value of the items is not particularly high, there are too many people.

Ten thousand taels per person, and more than a dozen people would amount to hundreds of thousands of taels!

However, this alone is not enough.

He didn't believe that the people behind these people only had these things to offer.

If you want to play, then play big!
