To get rich quickly, you need to be simple and rough

Han was sitting on the dressing stool wiping her tears. When she saw Xu Huizhen coming to pay her respects, she hurriedly wiped away her tears.

Han: "My son, why don't you sleep a little longer?"

Xu Huizhen: "Mother and daughter are already well now. There is no fun in just lying in bed all the time."

Han said, "Don't worry, my son. I'll take care of everything." Then she said to the servants, "Go find Aunt Zhang. That old woman got a basket of cherries today, and she's asking her for some."

Feicui and the others immediately understood that the lady wanted to say something to the young lady.

Feicui: "Since we have obtained the lady's good things, I will not let Madam Zhang eat them all by herself." After saying this, she bowed and left with the maids.

Han's tears fell again. "My son's Lin family was robbed yesterday and only an empty mansion is left. My son will marry into the family to fill their poverty hole. How could your father, such a fool, agree to such a marriage?"

Xu Huizhen said, "Mother, don't worry. I will never marry into the Lin family. It's not that I despise poverty and prefer wealth. Even if life gets tough, I have the dowry prepared by you and I can live a life of luxury. It's just that I got this yesterday and I'm unsure, so I showed it to you."

Xu Huizhen took out the sour date poem that Shen Yuzhu wrote to Lin Zhengwei.

Han took a look at the love poem and was so angry that her hands were shaking. She slammed the table and shouted, "This is too much!" Han called the housekeeper Wu Erjia and said, "Tell your husband to call the master. I have an urgent matter!"

Seeing his wife's gloomy face, Wu Erjia did not dare to delay and got up from the ground and flew to the front yard to find the man to pass on the message.

When Duke Xu Mingqi of Chu heard that his wife was in a bad mood and came to him, he did not dare to neglect her. His wife was not the kind of person who did not know the importance of things. She would not come to him regardless of the occasion unless it was an important matter.

Seeing his daughter and daughter-in-law were both there, Xu Mingqi thought they were upset because of the theft at the Lin family's house. Xu Mingqi said, "Don't worry, my daughter. These little things are nothing. Daddy will give you a little more dowry."

Han: "You old man, what kind of character does your daughter have? You still tease her. Look at this."

When Xu Mingqi got the love poem written on the handkerchief, he was so angry that veins on his head were throbbing. The Lin family was too bullying and too bold. This pair of dogs even dared to cuckold the third prince.

Even the Lin family knew about Lin Zhengwei and Shen Yuzhu's affairs based on this letter. How could the Lin family shamelessly ask for their own daughter in marriage? Did they really think the Duke of Chu's Mansion was made of clay?

Xu Mingqi picked up the tea on the table and took a sip calmly. "Don't worry, my son. I will make the decision for you. Just do what you should do. I have everything planned for you."

Han also advised Xu Huizhen: "My son, although your father's vision is not very good, it is still easy for him to deal with a few people. My son, don't worry."

This is the saying, "It's good to lean on a big tree for shade." Han gave birth to two sons and a daughter, while the Xu family only had one legitimate daughter in this generation, the true apple of the Xu family's eye. The illegitimate daughter who stepped on Xu Huizhen's skirt was given by a colleague of Xu Mingqi's, and she wasn't favored either. This shows how powerful Han's control over the harem is. There were no illegitimate sons, only two obscure illegitimate daughters.

Duke Xu Mingqi's revenge was extremely fierce. Although he appeared to be calm on the surface, he was actually setting a trap to expose the adulterous couple. Furthermore, Xu Mingqi and the Third Prince were secretly in cahoots.

The old emperor's health is getting worse and worse. With the addition of the Duke of Chu, the third prince will be greatly helped in his fight for the throne. The Duke of Chu is in charge of the defense of the capital and has soldiers at his disposal.

Xu Huizhen knew that in the previous life, Lin Zhengwei had also used the Xu family's name to support the Third Prince. It was the Xu family that provided the support, while the Lin family benefited. Since they had stepped on the Xu family to ascend to power, it was likely that the Third Prince, the Emperor in the previous life, would have had a miserable end. How could he have died in his prime? No one would believe there was no trickery involved.

The Lin family thought they knew the Xu family very well. Even if their family was robbed of everything, the Xu family would not regret the engagement. The Duke of Chu wanted to save face. The Xu family wanted face, but the Lin family didn't need that.

Marquis Anguo sold two shops in his mansion and got 50,000 taels of silver. It seemed that many ordinary families only spent ten taels of silver a year, but Marquis Anguo's mansion was so big and was robbed so badly, so he had to spend 5,000 taels just to buy furniture. He didn't even dare to buy good wood like rosewood, and could only buy common wood like old elm.

The purchase of pots, pans, food, and cloth cost another five thousand taels. The Anguo Marquis and his wife were now worried about how they would make ends meet.

Lin Zhengwei took two thousand taels from the Marquis of Anguo, saying that he was going to a poetry meeting with his friends.

Qian Linzhengwei rented a yard and wanted to use it as a love nest for Shen Yuzhu to date while Shen Yuzhu was not in the Third Prince's Mansion.

Lin Zhengwei gave Shen Yuzhu 1,500 taels, fearing that his lover would suffer due to lack of money.

The two of them were making love in bed that day, and they did everything except the last step.

Shen Yuzhu: "Brother Wei, it would be wonderful if we could stay together forever. Even if I enter the Third Prince's residence, I may not be favored. What should I do in the long nights? How can my sister not worry without anyone to rely on?"

Lin Zhengwei: "Sister Zhu, it's not easy for you to rely on. Isn't giving birth to a child for your brother your support?"

Shen Yuzhu: "Brother Wei, I also want to give birth to a child for my brother, but what about the Third Prince's Mansion?"

Lin Zhengwei: "That's easy. I have a kind of mushroom powder. Sister, you just need to let the Third Prince smell a little on the wedding night. The rest is up to you. Our child will be a royal family. As long as I marry Xu Huizhen, the Duke of Chu's Mansion will naturally be the Third Prince's party. The Third Prince's position is secure. As long as Sister Zhu works hard and has a boy, I am confident that the position will be our child in the future."

Shen Yuzhu: "Brother Wei, you still love me the most." What follows is a scene that is not suitable for children. The adulterous couple finally breaks through the last line of defense and rolls together!

The two of them were so sweet and affectionate, but they never expected that the people who were listening behind the window were so angry that they were glaring at each other. The third prince's face was green with anger, and he felt like he could raise sheep on his head.

What Xu Mingqi actually heard and saw was even more shocking, and he secretly hated himself for being blind and finding such a scumbag for his daughter.

There was no way to deal with this. If it got out, the couple would die, and the Third Prince and the Xu family would lose face. These two bitches could die any way they wanted, but not together in bed.

The Third Prince and the Duke of Chu supported each other and left the courtyard through the back door.

The Third Prince and the Duke of Chu reached a consensus that the adulterous couple must be punished.

The Third Prince and the Duke of Chu felt that the throne was more important, so they let the adulterous couple roam around for a few days. It wouldn't be easy for a concubine to die in the prince's mansion. Once the throne was secured, it would be the end of the Anguo Marquisate and the Kejing Earlate's mansion.

Through this incident, Duke Chu became the confidant of the Third Prince, and the two of them discussed together what charges they would use to deal with this group of people.
