Transmigrating to a Female-Dominated World: Pampering My Little Husband

Chapter 356 The Prince of Nan'an's Residence

Upon hearing her daughter's words, Li Cejun's smile vanished.

He frowned and looked at his daughter with surprise.

"Didn't Father just give you two hundred taels of silver a couple of days ago? Why do you want more money now!"

Consort Feng blinked, thinking of an excuse, and said proudly, "Two hundred taels isn't much... I'll drink with my classmates!"

If we buy some more books and paintings, there won't be any left over!

Things in Kyoto are much more expensive than in my fiefdom, so naturally they don't last long!

After hearing his daughter's explanation, Li Cejun's brows relaxed a little!

But he still said solemnly, "I'm not saying this to criticize you, but in the past half month you've already taken a thousand taels of silver from me!"

"Your food and clothing are all provided by your household, but the expenses you incur for eating and drinking with your classmates are far too much..."

Before he could finish speaking, Consort Feng's expression changed. "Hmph, if Father is unwilling to give it, then so be it!"

Ha, I'll never go out again; I'll stay in the yard all day from now on.

To avoid being laughed at by others when going out, a noblewoman of the Prince's family, penniless!

Consort Li's expression immediately changed, and he hurriedly said, "Oh, Consort Zhao, Father didn't mean it that way... it's just... it's just..."

Consort Feng has indeed spent a lot of money lately, almost half the expenses of the Prince's mansion!

Although he held the power of managing the Prince's mansion, he was not the only concubine in the Prince's mansion.

Besides Consort Feng Zhao, Feng Yu also has the second son, Feng Zhuqing, born to Third Master Wu, and the third daughter, Feng Jinghe, born to Fourth Master Zheng!

The two sons born to the sixth son, Lady Situ, are Feng Linsheng and Feng Linxue!

There are also several servants in the backyard; he is responsible for taking care of everyone's eating, drinking, and bodily functions.

His father's family was just a minor county magistrate in a remote county.

She didn't give him much dowry, and she often came to the Prince's mansion to ask him for money.

For so many years, he has been cautiously trying to please the Prince and managing the inner court!

Only by using both kindness and severity can the men and women in the backyard remain calm and peaceful.

The monthly allowance for Consort Feng Zhao is three hundred taels, which is more than enough for her daily life!

But Consort Feng Zhao always spent money extravagantly, and her share of the profits wasn't enough, so her father had to make up the difference himself.

Over the years, he has given his daughter three to five hundred taels of silver each time, like water flowing away.

Not to mention there will be leftovers, it's often not enough, so ask yourself a few more questions.

Consort Feng would then shut up and refuse to speak, and over time, Consort Li got used to it!

Over the past ten years since she took charge of the household, she has given Consort Feng no less than a hundred thousand taels of silver!

Now, aside from the silver given to Consort Feng, all that's left in my hands are tens of thousands of taels of silver notes!

We still need to make a living in the future, so I can't afford to keep spending like this!

So I wanted to talk to Consort Feng about it!

Unexpectedly, Consort Feng reacted so strongly, fearing that her daughter would be angry.

Li Cejun could only quickly coax, "Father didn't say he wouldn't give it to you, it's just a matter of how much you want this time."

"I must explain everything to my father before I can do anything!"

Upon hearing her father's words, Consort Feng knew that his heart had softened!

His eyes darted around for a moment, and he immediately said, "Uh, it's... the Minister of Revenue's daughter's birthday."

Her daughter and she were on fairly good terms, so naturally she had to give her a gift.

Several ladies from the Hanlin Academy also participated in the poetry gathering…

These excuses came easily to him; after all, his father wasn't going to go door to door to investigate.

Consort Li frowned, but still had his servant fetch two hundred taels of silver.

With a sigh, he realized that the silver notes had already been taken by Consort Feng!

She said smugly, "Uh, right, wait until I'm officially named a Lady of the World."

Father, you must make proper preparations so that others don't laugh at you.

If there's nothing else, daughter, you may leave now to go back to your study and read!

What's she doing here after getting the silver notes?

Just moments before, Li Cejun had been full of worry and instructions, but upon hearing that her daughter was going back to school, her tone immediately changed.

"Alright... if you get tired, remember to rest. Father will have someone bring you a bowl of bird's nest soup later. Eat it and nourish your body."

Consort Feng immediately agreed solemnly, "Alright, thank you, Father!"

He then turned and strode away, stuffing the silver notes into his pocket.

Watching her daughter's departing figure, Li Cejun couldn't help but sigh softly, "Ah..."

After receiving the silver, Consort Feng Zhao did not go back to her study to read!

He immediately left the mansion with his maid.

After many twists and turns, we arrived at the front of a huge shop.

Above the shop, a large archway bears several large characters.

"Wantong Casino!"

Feng Zhaoyi said smugly, "Second Sister, prepare the largest private room for me!"

"Today, I, the Lady of the World, will surely win back what I lost before!"

The waitress inside the gambling den's eyes lit up when she saw Feng Zhaoyi.

He immediately flattered her, "Oh, it's Your Highness! My apologies for not recognizing you... Please come in!"

The Imperial Palace, Phoenix Palace! Imperial Noble Lord Murong Che's eyes reddened, and tears trembled between his eyelashes.

He raised his hand and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, his fingertips trembling slightly, his gaze fixed intently on the Empress on the throne.

The deep emotions surging in his eyes were almost overwhelming, and though a thousand words seemed to be on his throat, they turned into a very soft sigh.

Feng Wu sighed and looked at the person in front of him, "Che'er, don't be angry with me anymore!"

I only went to Chengqian Palace to visit the Fourth Prince; I did not stay there overnight!

Murong Che turned his head to the side and murmured, "His Majesty is the ruler of a country, so naturally he can go wherever he wants."

What are you saying to me, Your Majesty...? Do you think I could possibly stop you?"

He spoke tough words, but tears streamed down his face like beads from a broken string.

Seeing this, Fengwu felt a pang of heartache. "Alright...alright, it was my fault. From now on, I will only summon the Fourth Prince to the Hall of Diligent Governance."

Che'er, don't take it to heart anymore. By the way, the hunting competition that the Queen will hold in a few days.

"Is Che'er planning to go and see what's going on?"

Murong Che's attention was indeed diverted, and he nodded slightly.

"The annual hunting festival is something I, your servant, cannot miss."

But...is it too monotonous to have only some royalty and nobles participating?

Feng Wu raised an eyebrow. "Oh, does Che'er have other ideas?"

Murong Che slightly curved his lips and said softly, "It's the same every year, I'm afraid it will get a bit boring."

Since we're holding this event, let's make it a grand affair! How about inviting some students from the Imperial College?

In addition, there are talented young men from various mansions, so the scene must be grand and spectacular.

What do you think, Your Majesty? "

Fengwu pondered for a moment and said, "That's a good idea. You can discuss it with the Queen tomorrow."

How about I give you something as a prize?

Murong Che nodded slightly, "Your Majesty is wise. On the day of the hunt, Your Majesty must shoot a few more white foxes for your servants."

"Make a white fox fur cloak for my servant!"

To win a smile from the beauty, he readily agreed, "Very well... I will certainly grant Che'er's wish."

He then pulled her into his arms, unaware that a dark glint flashed in the eyes of the person in his arms!

Inside the Chaoyang Palace, Shangguan Shuofeng listened to the old nanny's report.

His expression hardened. "What? Change... Let the students of the Imperial Academy participate."

"...What kind of trouble is Phoenix Bath Palace up to now?"
