Royal daughter-in-law makes money

Chapter 72

"What did the Qian family do? They actually asked my father to grant a marriage to his daughter." The prince really couldn't understand why the merchants in the capital were getting more powerful than each other recently?

"Qian Jia donated 500,000 taels of silver to the national treasury." Qingyun said.

"This is really my father's style!" The prince was a little amused by this answer.

At this moment, he wondered if he should be glad that he got married early.

Otherwise, he might also be within the scope of the emperor's betrayal.

"What is the Fifth Prince's attitude?" the Crown Prince asked after thinking for a moment.

"The fifth prince was not happy at first, but after meeting Miss Qian, he seemed to enjoy it." Qingyun said after thinking for a while.

"Oh? I am a little curious about the young lady of the Qian family." The prince thought to himself that the merchants in the capital were the harvesters of their prince?

"Why did the emperor think of arranging the marriage between the fifth prince and Miss Qian? And not the sixth and seventh princes?" The prince was a little surprised that the person being arranged to marry was the fifth prince.

Although, there are three unmarried princes now: the fifth prince, the sixth prince and the seventh prince.

But in comparison, the fifth prince's status is better than that of the other two princes.

After all, the fifth prince's biological mother was Concubine Hui, while the biological mothers of the other two princes were just concubines.

"I heard that the emperor originally called the sixth prince, but for some reason, the fifth prince was the one who was granted marriage." Qingyun said quickly.

"Hmph, what reason could there be? I'm afraid it's just that the Sixth Prince is not happy." Upon hearing this, the Crown Prince understood that it must be the Sixth Prince himself who was not happy.

After hearing this, Qingyun frowned and thought to himself, with the Sixth Prince being like that, could it be that he wants to compete with His Highness for that position?

"What is Concubine Hui's attitude?" the prince asked again.

"Your Highness, the Emperor asks you to come over." Before Qingyun could answer the Crown Prince's question, the Ninth Eunuch walked in with his head lowered and spoke in a low voice.

The prince nodded, guessing that the emperor was calling him over.

I guess it might be related to the marriage that will be arranged for the fifth prince today.

"Okay, I'll be there right away." The prince didn't delay any longer, he stood up and walked towards the imperial study.

At this time, Chu Yuanming in the imperial study was in a very good mood.

He felt that he had solved another important marriage issue for his son.

It’s really worth it to receive so much money.

The reason why he wanted to call the prince over was to remind him.

Let him take more concubines and have more sons.

When I need help in the future, my son will be the one to help.

After all, he would have to pay a large sum of money when his daughter got married.

But when his son gets married, he can still receive a large sum of money.

If he could also settle the marriages of the Sixth and Seventh Princes, he felt that his treasury would be even richer.

If there were a few more in-laws like the Qiao family, Chu Yuanming felt that he would wake up laughing in his dreams.

"Your son pays homage to the emperor. Long live the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor!" After the prince came in, he first bowed to Chu Yuanming.

"Okay, there's no one else here, so there's no need for those empty formalities." Chu Yuanming was in a good mood and waved to the prince.

"I wonder what good news has your Majesty that makes him so happy." Even though the prince knew why Chu Yuanming was so happy, he still pretended to be ignorant and asked with a smile.

"I am in a very good mood today. Today I have solved the lifelong event of your fifth brother. I am happy, hahahaha..." Chu Yuanming said with a smile.

"I wonder whose daughter the emperor promised to my fifth brother?" the prince asked quickly.

"It's the daughter of the Qian family in the capital." Chu Yuanming felt very good when he thought of the Qian family's approachable spirit.

"Qian family? I wonder which Qian family it is?" The prince asked pretending to be ignorant.

"It's the Qian family, a merchant family. They're only slightly inferior to the Qiao family. This time, the Qian family showed their generosity by donating 500,000 taels of silver to our national treasury." Chu Yuanming thought that the fifth child was indeed a lucky person. The Qian family girl was also said to be quite powerful.

However, he also knew that the Qian family had another son, and the Qian family business would probably be passed on to that boy in the future.

However, as long as the daughter-in-law is the fifth brother's, he will never have to worry about food and clothing in the future.

"Father, please grant this marriage to my fifth brother. Is he willing?" the prince asked with a worried look on his face.

Although he knew that the Fifth Prince might not have that intention, there was no need to force him if he was unwilling.

Now that the emperor is in good health, he feels that he still has plenty of time to learn how to govern the country.

As for other brothers wanting that position, he doesn't mind fair competition and letting the most capable one get it.

If those brothers were not as good as himself, he would definitely not give them the opportunity to take that position.

If those brothers were more capable than him, he would definitely step down and let them take over.

However, as far as he knew, the second prince had no idea about that position, but he liked to fight on the battlefield, and the fifth prince now liked to study the ways of doing business.

The eldest prince was watching with eager eyes, but he really felt that he was nothing to be afraid of.

As for the Fourth Prince, the Crown Prince never took him seriously.

"I'll make the decision for him on this matter. What's there for him to be dissatisfied with?" Chu Yuanming felt that the Fifth Prince's biggest problem was that he couldn't support the Princess.

But what does that matter? As long as his future princess can support him, that's all that matters.

The main thing is that the prince of the Chu family is a gigolo, and he is not the only one.

Then, on the way to living off his wife, he had the company of the Second Prince, which was pretty good.

"Your Majesty, my fifth brother is a straightforward person. If he feels that the young lady from the Qian family is not to his liking, Your Majesty should revoke your decision." The prince bowed and said.

The prince also knew very well what Chu Yuanming wanted to hear.

Chu Yuanming certainly wouldn't want to hear those words that he was stepping on his brothers' words. What he wanted to see was a scene of brotherly love and respect between them.

"Don't worry, I've asked someone to find out. The fifth brother is very satisfied with the girl from the Qian family." Chu Yuanming had someone observe that Chu Haoheng had a lot of thoughts about Qian Duoduo.

However, he also asked someone to investigate and found that Qian Duoduo was indeed a good girl.

Otherwise, he would not feel comfortable marrying his son to a girl with bad morals.

Although his treasury was short of money, the happiness of his sons was still very important.

"Third brother." Chu Yuanming looked at the prince below.

This son is like him, and does many things better than him.

This is the next crown prince of their Chu Yuan Kingdom, a rare and good candidate.

"Father, is there anything else you want to tell me?" After hearing what the emperor said, the prince guessed that the emperor might have something else to tell him.

"Isn't there a few people in your harem?" The emperor thought that there was only one princess in the prince's backyard, which was indeed a little too few.

It is still necessary to marry a few more concubines and have more children. This is a matter concerning the foundation of the country.

The prince paused when he heard this and thought to himself, is the emperor planning to take a concubine for him?
