Royal daughter-in-law makes money

Chapter

Morning the next day.

Chu Yuanming looked at the ministers below and asked, "My dear ministers, do you have anything else to report?"

The Imperial Censor came out and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to report."

"Accurate!" Chu Yuanming thought that the Imperial Censor was probably talking about Lin Qijia's affairs.

"Your humble servant would like to report that the granddaughter of Prime Minister Lin is arrogant and has damaged other people's property without reason and refused to compensate." Imperial Censor Shen Qingzheng said righteously.

"My dear Lin, what do you have to say?" Chu Yuanming looked at Lin Qi below and asked.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. Lord Shen is really making things up." Lin Qi thought to himself, this damn Shen Zhengqing!

"Your Majesty, I have evidence to prove that Miss Lin went to the Nong Yuxuan owned by the Qiao family and destroyed goods worth 250,000 taels of silver." Shen Zhengqing continued.

The officials who were originally calm became nervous when they heard the amount: 250,000 taels.

That's a considerable amount of money.

"Present the evidence." Chu Yuanming said with a dark face.

"This princess can prove that the eldest daughter of the Lin family did go and smash everything in their shop that day." Chu Yuqing walked in and said.

"How can such a naughty woman come to the court?" Lin Qi said angrily when he saw Chu Yuqing suddenly appear.

"Greetings, Uncle Emperor." Chu Yuqing ignored the angry Lin Qi and bowed obediently to Chu Yuanming.

"Your Majesty!" Lin Qi wanted to say something else, but he was shocked when he saw the look in the emperor's eyes.

I'm afraid the emperor has already known about this.

"If your family is not at peace, my dear Lin, you should first take care of your household affairs at home and then come to court." Chu Yuanming glared at Lin Qi and said.

Lin Qi was shocked. Does the emperor want to dismiss him from his post?

"Lord Lin should indeed control the younger generation in the mansion." Grand Tutor Chen Kangping, who has always been at odds with Lin Qi, said.

"Why should Lord Chen be so proud?" someone replied.

He was thinking about Chen Kangping in his heart, not wanting him to catch his little braid.

"Lord Lin, you should compensate for the cost of damaging other people's things. It's reasonable." Chu Yueming said coldly.

"Your Majesty, I will send someone to deliver the silver to the Qiao family when I return." Lin Qi said quickly.

Originally, he wanted to leave the Qiao family alone and didn't dare to go to their house to ask for money.

But he didn't expect that the emperor would ask them for the silver, so he had to give it to them.

Lin Qi's heart was bleeding when he thought of the more than 200,000 taels of silver.

"Since the Prime Minister's Mansion is making so much money, why not donate some to the national treasury?" Chu Yuanming said again.

At this moment, Lin Qi was neither in a good position to respond nor in a bad position to respond.

Although the Lin family is not short of more than 200,000 taels of silver, if they donate more to the national treasury, how much would be appropriate?

If they donate too much, the emperor might bear a grudge against the Lin family!

If the donation is too little, the emperor might bear a grudge against the Lin family.

"Your Majesty, since Lord Lin's granddaughter can spend more than 200,000 taels of silver on things with just a wave of her hand, I think you are not short of money. Why not let Lord Lin donate 400,000 taels of silver to the national treasury?" Chen Kangping said with a smile.

"Minister Chen, this is a very good suggestion." Chu Yuanming nodded with satisfaction.

But you are thinking about that old bastard Lin Qi!

It seems that they have squeezed a lot of money from the people.

"Your Majesty!" Lin Qi was shocked. How could the Lin family come up with so much money at once?

If he really took out another 400,000 taels of silver, the emperor would probably want to confiscate the Lin family.

"Why do you, Lord Lin, think that giving the money to the national treasury is not more valuable than keeping it in your home?" Chen Kangping said sarcastically.

Lin Qi was very angry after hearing what Chen Kangping said. It seemed that this man was just taking advantage of his own shortcomings.

The Chen family doesn’t have to pay for this, right?

"Your Majesty, I also want to pay another 400,000 taels of silver to the national treasury. But the mansion has made money. If I pay the Qiao family's silver, I really can't come up with that much." Lin Qi said distressedly.

"The Lin family is wealthy and powerful, so they need to have more children like Miss Lin." Chen Kangping said again.

Lin Qi's face turned black with anger.

But I couldn't find any words to refute it.

I was thinking that I had to marry this spendthrift girl off as soon as possible.

At this time, Yu's family

"Master, do you think it is possible to postpone Jinghua's marriage?" Mrs. Yu Zhang said with a worried look on her face.

Yu Hongkang glanced at his wife Zhang and felt very distressed.

Didn't he want to reject this marriage?

But the other party is the Lin family of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

If he rejected the Lin family's marriage proposal, who knows how Prime Minister Lin would make things difficult for him in the future.

"Madam, let's arrange this matter as soon as possible. You will have to take care of the family." Yu Hongkang thought, if Lin Ruyi married into their Yu family and continued to be so willful and capricious.

The Yu family can’t do anything about it either.

The Yu family cannot afford the consequences of causing such a big mess again.

After the morning court session, Prime Minister Lin immediately ordered people to prepare the silver and personally deliver it to the Qiao family.

Qiao Anan originally thought that the Lin family would not send the money so quickly.

But when he saw that it was delivered by Prime Minister Lin himself, he knew that it must be the emperor who took action.

"Miss Qiao, it's my fault for not disciplining my children properly and allowing the youngsters in my house to damage the things in your shop. This is 260,000 taels of silver as compensation for the losses you incurred. Please check it." Lin Qi said gritting his teeth.

"Prime Minister Lin is a straightforward man." Qiao Anan said with a smile, and asked someone beside her to count the silver.

"Miss, the amount of silver is correct." Dongsheng said with a bow after counting the silver.

Lin Qi was so angry that his face turned black. Did the Qiao family really think that they would be short of this little money?

"Prime Minister Lin, please forgive me. I have to deliver this silver to the palace soon. It would be bad if the emperor blames me if some of it is missing." Qiao Anan said with a smile.

Qiao Anan said sorry words, but there was no apology on her face.

Lin Qi originally thought that the Lin family's money was not so easy to spend.

I was just about to turn around and find a reason to make the Qiao family give up everything they had taken.

I never thought that Qiao Anan would immediately send the silver to the palace.

If I cause trouble for the Qiao family again because of this money, wouldn't I be offending the emperor?

"Prime Minister Lin, is there anything else?" Qiao Anan asked with a smile, looking at Lin Qi, who still had a sullen face.

"I'm sorry to bother you today. I'll go back first." Lin Qi said unwillingly.

When leaving, the people arranged by Lin Qi were watching outside the Qiao family. He wanted to see whether the Qiao family was really going to send the silver to the palace.

If the Qiao family dares to lie to him, he will make sure they are in trouble.

"Let's go!" Qiao Anan said to Dongsheng as she watched Lin Qi leaving.

"Miss, where are we going?" Dongsheng asked in confusion.

"Go to the palace!" Qiao An thought to himself that he had to go to the palace to hug her thighs today.
