Royal daughter-in-law makes money

Chapter 26

"Your Majesty, Miss Qiao's money will bring a lot of convenience to the Second Palace!" said Aunt Qiu.

"Hmph, she is still somewhat useful." Concubine Xianxian was not so repulsed at the thought.

"Your Majesty, think about it, if the Second Prince wants to marry Miss Lin, even if we sell the Second Prince's mansion, it will not be enough to pay the compensation." Nanny Qiu said quickly.

"Who did you accept the benefits from? If Juer was not going to marry the daughter of the Qiao family, how could the daughter of the Lin family smash the Qiao family's shop?" Empress Xian said unhappily. Although the Qiao family was rich, they could not help their son at all in the court.

"I dare not." Nanny Qiu said quickly, fearing that Concubine Xian would punish her for this.

"What are you afraid of? Tell me, how much benefit has the Qiao family given you?" Empress Xian asked unhappily.

"Your Majesty, it was the Second Prince who told me to say that I did not accept any benefits from the Qiao family." Nanny Qiu said quickly, fearing that Concubine Xian would punish her.

"Juer said that? How is that possible?" Empress Xian couldn't believe that her son would actually like the daughter of a merchant.

What made Concubine Xian even more upset was that the Emperor said that his son was going to be a son-in-law of the Emperor.

Empress Xian felt so angry when she thought of this.

How could her son be a son-in-law?

For a prince to marry a merchant's daughter is like stepping on his own son's face.

"Your Majesty, I dare not lie. It was really the Second Prince who asked me to say this!" Nanny Qiu quickly knelt down and said.

"Okay, get up. I know you are doing this for my own good." Empress Xian said slowly.

Kunning Palace

"I heard that the eldest daughter of the Lin family smashed the shop of the Qiao family. Is this true?" Queen Mei Xiurong asked the prince who was sitting nearby drinking tea.

"I have also heard about this matter, mother." The prince did not take any action when he heard about it.

After all, neither the Qiao family nor Prime Minister Lin's Mansion were people he wanted to offend right now.

"What do you think about this matter, my son?" the queen asked in a gentle voice.

"Your Majesty, I think the eldest daughter of the Lin family is really domineering!" The prince thought for a while and said, after all, so many things were smashed, she was really a waste.

"I heard that the eldest daughter of the Lin family is engaged to the eldest son of the Yu family, the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture." Then she talked about another thing.

"Mother should know. Empress Xian has always wanted my second brother to marry the eldest daughter of the Lin family." The prince was talking about something else.

"Empress Xian is just confused." The queen said with a sneer.

Now that the national treasury is empty, it would be a hundred benefits for the second prince if he could marry the daughter of the Qiao family.

But Empress Xian couldn't even see this.

Thinking of this, the queen looked at her son again.

"What does the prince think of the Qiao family?" the queen asked again.

"Your Majesty, I think the Qiao family is pretty good." The prince thought for a while and said, after all, it was unprecedented to give one million taels of silver to the national treasury just by saying so.

Moreover, he heard that Qiao Zhencheng originally intended to give 500,000 taels of silver, but the eldest daughter of the Qiao family later added another 500,000 taels of silver.

The national treasury was empty, and the prince felt that the more talents like this the better.

If he ascends the throne to become emperor in the future, he would not mind having a few more people like Qiao family.

"My son, you have to take better care of the Qiao family in the future." The queen said after thinking for a while.

"I understand." Even if the Queen didn't say anything, the Prince would still be beaten like this.

After all, the Qiao family had just donated one hundred million taels of silver to the national treasury. Even for the sake of those one hundred million taels, he should take better care of the Qiao family.

If the money in the national treasury runs out next time, he will have a reason to borrow some money from the Qiao family.

"It's good that you understand. The second brother is not as insightful as his mother. Then you two brothers should work together to protect the Chu Yuan Kingdom, and the Chu Yuan Kingdom will get better and better."

The queen knew very well that if Chu Yuanguo wanted to get better and better, it would not be enough to have only one son. The second prince was a talented military commander. If she could get the help of the second prince, her son's future political achievements would naturally get better and better.

The second prince married a merchant girl, and the emperor obviously wanted the Qiao family to help the second prince consolidate the position of the Chu Yuan Kingdom in the army.

"Only when Chu Yuanguo is well can they be well. You must understand this truth. Although the Qiao family is a merchant family, they can give what those court officials cannot give." The queen said, thinking of the Qiao family's huge assets.

The prince nodded in agreement.

"Mother, what about the Lin family?" The prince thought for a while and asked. After all, if the girl of the Lin family only married into the Yu family of Jingzhao Prefecture, it would be a bit too low. The prince was thinking about whether he should marry Lin Ruyu.

"Does your Prince's Mansion have much money?" the Queen asked unhappily.

"What did mother say?" the prince asked somewhat embarrassedly. After all, the prince's mansion was not much richer than the national treasury.

"What do you think if you don't have that asset? You actually want to bring a troublemaker like Lin Ruyi back. Did your prince win a lot of money that time?" The queen thought that she couldn't even avoid such a daughter-in-law. Her son actually wanted to bring her back to the mansion. She was not happy even if it was as a concubine.

"My Queen Mother is right!" The prince was frightened when he thought about it.

"Okay, nothing happened, you can go back." Then he felt a little annoyed looking at his son!

I don’t know whether it is good or bad to hand over the Chu Yuan Kingdom to such a person in the future.

"Your son will take his leave." Although the prince still had many questions to ask, he saw that the queen seemed a little tired, so he quickly said goodbye.

The queen stroked her forehead feeling a little tired.

I thought to myself that my son needed more experience.

But the queen remembered something else.

The emperor asked her to choose a few concubines and concubines for the eldest prince. No one knew what the eldest prince had done to displease the emperor.

"Eunuch Lin, go and find out what the eldest prince has done recently that has displeased the emperor." The queen instructed Eunuch Lin who was standing beside her.

"Your Majesty, this is what I heard." Eunuch Lin quickly stepped forward and replied with a smile.

Two days ago, he heard that the eldest son of the royal family went to the Qiao family and said that he wanted Miss Naqiao as a concubine, and the second prince came to complain to the emperor.

Who asked the eldest and second princes to fight over a wife? This is not a decent thing to do.

"Oh, tell me about it." asked the queen curiously.

Eunuch Li quickly told the Queen everything about how the eldest prince had gone to see Miss Qiao and wanted to take her as a concubine.

"Nonsense!" The queen didn't expect that the eldest prince would be so brainless.

The emperor has already issued an edict to grant the marriage between the second prince and Miss Qiao. The eldest prince actually has the nerve to try to steal his brother's girl. This is simply ridiculous. I don't know how Concubine De raised the eldest prince.

"Your Majesty, I heard that the second prince went to the palace to complain to the emperor because of this." Eunuch Lin said with a smile.

"Hmph, the eldest brother is just like his mother, thinking that everyone else is a fool." The Queen thought about Concubine De's usual style of doing things.
