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

The Anguo Marquisate is having a really hard time right now, and the whole family has placed all their hopes on the Chuguo Dukeate, hoping that Xu Huizhen can come in soon to fill the hole in their family's finances.

Lin Zhengwei and Shen Yuzhu have been dating for the past few days, going to the small house in Lanhua Lane for dates every few days. Lin Zhengwei also wants to marry Xu Huizhen as soon as possible. The family is short of money, and the dowry given by the Xu family must be quite large. How can Sister Yuzhu marry into the Third Prince's mansion without some private money?

In Lin Zhengwei's eyes, a woman should regard her husband as her God. As long as he was nice enough and mentioned a few difficulties at home, Xu Huizhen should offer him the dowry with both hands. Then he could give 30,000 taels to his sister Yuzhu for self-defense.

It can only be said that the scumbag's head is full of shit, and he only dreams of getting married. That day, Lin Zhengwei went out to meet Shen Yuzhu secretly. Seeing that Sister Yuzhu would be entering the prince's mansion in half a month, this was the last chance to relieve his longing for her.

Lin Zhengwei and Shen Yuzhu were having a wild time. Shen Yuzhu touched her belly and said, "Brother Wei, I didn't have my period this month. I'm afraid I'm pregnant."

Lin Zhengwei was very proud: "Sister Yuzhu, everything is going according to plan."

Lin Zhengwei gave all the silver he had to Shen Yuzhu. These days, Lin Zhengwei and An Guohou had revealed their plans. An Guohou also thought that wealth and honor can be sought in danger, and he also had the armor left by his great-grandfather in the secret room, so he decided to do it.

If they win, their descendants will sit on that position. If they lose, there is nothing to be afraid of as the three princes of the Duke of Chu will take the blame.

It is said that being a scumbag is hereditary. When Lin Zhengwei heard that Shen Yuzhu was pregnant today, he generously gave her 10,000 taels of silver.

Shen Yuzhu was also very satisfied. With this money, she could protect herself and bribe eunuchs and palace maids in the palace. She was not afraid of not being favored.

As long as she can get through the wedding night, she will be able to make the child be blamed on the Third Prince.

In the evening, Lin Zhengwei was walking home happily when suddenly a dozen masked men rushed out from the alley, put sacks on Lin Zhengwei and his two servants, and started beating them up.

Lin Zhengwei was beaten so hard that he cried for his parents. It seemed as if the group of people wanted to kill Lin Zhengwei. They punched, kicked, stabbed him with sticks, and even stomped on Lin Zhengwei's crotch.

Lin Zhengwei was beaten so hard that his eyes rolled back and he passed out, breathing more than he exhaled. At this moment, the masked man on guard whistled, and the group of masked men dispersed completely.

The patrolling soldiers of Wucheng Bingmasi found the dying Lin Zhengwei. The servant was taken away in a sack and looked at the young master lying on the ground, who was beaten to the point of being only breathing his last. He was so sad that he had no tears to cry. He could only limp to the Anguo Marquis Mansion to report the news.

When Marquis Anguo and Shen heard the news, they felt like the sky was about to fall, and hurriedly led the servants to carry Lin Zhengwei back on a stretcher.

The Lin family hired a royal physician, and Lin Zhengwei managed to save his life, but he could no longer move. His waist was broken. He was considered a cripple.

Shen was sobbing and gasping for breath, and the Marquis of Anguo also sighed. He wondered who he had offended. Who in the court had the ability to steal so many things from his family and beat Wei'er like this?

Marquis Anguo only has this one legitimate son, and the other two illegitimate sons are raised like timid cats by the Shen family. Now they can only place their hopes on the child in Shen Yuzhu's belly.

Shen came up with another bad idea: "Master Wei'er is in such a state now. Shouldn't we arrange a marriage for him to get rid of the bad luck? Our family is in a difficult situation too. If Xu Huizhen were to marry into our family, there would be hope for all the troubles we have."

Marquis Anguo: "Are you dreaming? How could the Duke of Chu's mansion allow their only legitimate daughter to marry into our family and become a widow?"

Shen: "What's the point of following the rules? The Xu family has already agreed to the marriage and it's not up to them to deny it! Don't you care about your reputation? Even if Xu Huizhen is rich, she will stay with Wei'er. This is her fate!"

Marquis Anguo also wanted to see the Xu family's attitude, so he sent a letter to visit Duke Xu Mingqi of Chu.

Xu Mingqi was very calm when he saw Anguo Hou. He did not comment on what Anguo Hou said, but only said: "Xu Huizhen is embroidering her dowry. The Xu family will not do anything to cancel the engagement. But it is impossible to advance the wedding date. The daughter of the Xu family must marry with great ceremony and red makeup."

Marquis Anguo felt indescribable how he felt. Distant water could not quench immediate thirst. It would take more than four months for Xu Huizhen to marry him. He might as well sell the two shops to solve the urgent problem.

After An Guohou left, Xu Mingqi smashed a teacup in anger. "Why the hell did they run into Wucheng Bingmasi on patrol?" If it had been a quarter of an hour later, Lin Zhengwei would have been dead. It was also his fault for wanting to vent his anger by hitting Lin Zhengwei. If he had just stabbed him, none of this would have happened.

This is why leaving a tail makes people feel as disgusted as if they had eaten a fly.

These days, the Marquis of Anguo has been submitting memorials to the emperor, lamenting how his family had been robbed and his son had been beaten, but all his letters have fallen on deaf ears. The old emperor is almost at the end of his rope and has no time to bother with such trivial matters.

The Third Prince took a concubine in an unusually calm manner, saying that his father was in poor health and as a son, he had no time to marry a concubine.

A small sedan chair was carried in from the side door and the matter was settled. There was no grand banquet for the guests, only a table of wine was set up in the inner chamber as a token of appreciation. The princess was happy to ignore the matter as she saw that the prince did not like the newly married concubine.

Moreover, the prince arranged the concubine's courtyard to be located in Tingyu Tower opposite the garden, which was the most remote place in the palace. Concubine Shen was quite capable, as she was disliked by the prince as soon as she entered the palace.

This should be Shen Yuzhu's wedding night, but Shen Yuzhu felt vaguely uneasy. The Third Prince had not shown up all day, and only the Third Prince's wife said a few words of encouragement indifferently.

Finally, the lights were lit in the huge palace. Shen Yuzhu's long nail polish was filled with mushroom powder. She just had to wait for the third prince to come and break the wax skin. Everything would be done today.

Shen Yuzhu sat on the bed and waited until the first drum, only then did she see the third prince come in with two maids.

The third prince sent people to surround Tingyu Tower. The two old maids were the third prince's confidants. Without saying a word, they slapped Shen Yuzhu in the face. Before Shen Yuzhu could shout, the other old maid took out a walnut and stuffed it into Shen Yuzhu's mouth.

The two maids tied Shen Yuzhu up like a dumpling, and the two maids that Shen Yuzhu brought as a dowry were also tied up and gagged.

The third prince: "Mammy, please do it!"

The two old maids skillfully examined Shen Yuzhu's body and took her pulse.

The two old maids whispered, "The master is no longer virgin. She is one and a half months pregnant. There is a powder in her fingernails that can make people faint and hallucinate." The two maids said nothing.

The Third Prince's face was as cold as frost. "Pass the order that Concubine Shen has contracted the plague. No one is allowed to approach Tingyu Tower."

The two maids took out the prepared medicine powder, filled a large bowl with it, took out the walnut from Shen Yuzhu's mouth, and pinched her nose to force the medicine down her throat as Shen Yuzhu pleaded with tears streaming down her face.

In less than a quarter of an hour, blood began to flow from between Shen Yuzhu's thighs. Shen Yuzhu rolled on the ground, clutching her stomach. She wanted to shout at the walnut in her mouth, but she could only whimper in pain.

The third prince: "Shen Yuzhu, you bitch, this is just the beginning. You will die after this busy period"!
