Chapter 185

of course not.

Concubine Zheng is very clear.

Originally, when the position of the crown prince was still very stable, several princes fought fiercely.

Zijin is also among them.

Although that would be her participation on behalf of Zijin.

It is also because of this that she understands the pursuit of the position of the crown prince and emperor by the other princes.

Whoever Chu Xi marries will bring Bei Xiao a good reputation.

This good reputation showed that Emperor Bei Xiao was benevolent, and at the same time, it also gave some good reputation to the people Chu Xi married.

She knows this, let alone His Majesty.

It's just the position of a side concubine, and the princes will definitely fight each other for this good reputation.

Concubine Zheng's complexion changed again and again, from white to red to blue to black, and finally turned pale again.

Leaving aside the crown prince, among the several princes, only Zijin has been staying in the Ministry of Rites, and has made it clear that he will not have anything to do with the crown prince and the throne.

If His Majesty wants to avoid the prince's fight, and really fight for something after the fight, he will only promise Chu Xi to...

Concubine Zheng couldn't stay longer, this time was different from the girl in the Empress Dowager's house last time.

On the Queen Mother's side, His Majesty didn't want to.

"Your Majesty, the concubine is going back first."

Concubine Zheng didn't care that Chu Xi and the emperor were still in Fuyinglou, and hurried back.

At the gate, the emperor was coming out.

Seeing that her head was sweating profusely and her bun was a little messy, she frowned unconsciously.

Concubine Zheng didn't care whether the emperor was happy or not, she was about to die of anxiety, so she hurriedly went to ask, "Your Majesty, Miss Chu..."

The emperor glanced at her, "Since she doesn't want to marry the prince, she can marry someone else. I don't only have one son, the prince."

Concubine Zheng's heart turned cold when she saw this, and when she wanted to speak, she saw that the emperor had already walked away.

Chu Xi smiled softly at Concubine Zheng, "My Lady."

Concubine Zheng: "..."

She responded with great reluctance, "The sky is getting dark, Miss Chu should go back first."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Chu Xi to speak again, she hurriedly walked towards Fuying Tower.

After being treated like this, Chu Xi's expression was a little unsightly, but she swallowed her anger when she thought about what would happen in the future.

As soon as the courtyard door was closed, Concubine Zheng said, "Go out of the palace and find Zijin."

After Shi Zhu took two steps, Concubine Zheng called people to stop again, she hurried around, "No, I won't leave the palace yet."

If she asks someone to leave the palace now, His Majesty will definitely be able to guess.

At that time, there is really no room for reversal.

She can only come up with a reason as soon as possible and refuse first.

Concubine Zheng thought of what Xiao Changluo said earlier.

Said in front of His Majesty that Zijin lost money in business and lost everything, and now he is still using the prince's concubine's dowry?
That definitely won't work.

Your Majesty might be more at ease, because there is no way to toss about.

Besides, it is impossible to use the dowry of the prince and concubine, His Majesty will definitely give Chu Xi a generous dowry.

Concubine Zheng felt like fainting.

She can't let people find Zijin openly, but in private...it's hard to hide it from His Majesty.

And judging from the situation just now, Chu Xi seemed to be willing.

This is difficult.

If Chu Xi doesn't want His Majesty to want her to be the seventh prince's side concubine, she won't be able to, but she is willing.

Concubine Zheng has been worrying here for a few days, but she has not come up with a solution. She originally thought that she would have to wait until the imperial edict came down to make it clear that she could think of another plan to refuse, but who knew that the imperial edict would not come down.

Concubine Zheng didn't understand at first, so she asked Shi Zhu and Liu Xu to find out.

I don't know if I don't inquire about it, but when I inquire about it, she is almost mad.

For several days in a row, Xiao Changluo went out wearing ragged clothes.

Moreover, the usual clothes have changed from being luxurious, and the clothes are very plain.

Originally, the emperor would not care about such trivial matters, but a few courtiers raised their mouths during the discussion.

They lamented that Xiao Changluo was so hardworking and thrifty.

These princes and noble sons, even if the clothes are torn, they still have to mend the holes and continue to wear them.

There is only the Seventh Prince.

Several courtiers couldn't help but praise Xiao Changluo a lot.

When the emperor heard this, he felt that something was wrong. Among the princes, he took care of the seventh prince the most. Although this kid was not extravagant, he was by no means thrifty as they said.

He remained calm in front of several people, and then asked someone to call Xiao Changluo into the palace.

Xiao Changluo didn't know that the emperor was about to stuff Chu Xi into his backyard, he was telling the last lie.

Once a lie is told, another lie must be used to cover it up.

Since he said that he was losing money in business, then this show must be done to the end.

For this reason, he also took care of it outside, and even if he sent someone to check, he couldn't find anything wrong.

The only thing he didn't expect was the person who came to him.

He only thought that the mother and concubine would find it, but he never thought that the first one to find it was the father.

Xiao Changluo stood below, feeling uneasy.

With his head down, he caught a glimpse of the holes deliberately worn out on the sleeves on both sides, and swung his hands back indistinctly.

This action made the emperor frowned even tighter.

"What's the matter with your clothes? Who told you to wear them? You just wore them like this?"

Xiao Changluo: "..."

He goes to court every day behind several brothers, who knows that he will be discovered.

Xiao Changluo still didn't know that several ministers praised him as a flower, so he gritted his teeth and said, "I want to wear it myself. I think that I am a man after all, so I can't always wear the clothes of the prince and concubine." dowry."

The emperor even felt for a moment that he was too old to hear clearly.

Otherwise, how could he have heard Zijin say that the dowry of the princess was used.

"Say it again." The emperor tried his best to keep his voice steady.

Xiao Changluo was a little afraid of being beaten, but he had said everything, and it was impossible to change it, "I didn't tell my father before..."

Xiao Changluo briefly explained that he wanted to make a lot of money to start a business but was losing money, and that the prince and concubine had been supporting him with dowry during this period.

The emperor was silent for a long time, staring blankly not far away.

"Father, Father Emperor?" Xiao Changluo felt uneasy.

"Bastard!" The emperor glanced at his hand, picked up a few memorials and threw them at them, "How did I teach you all these years? Use a woman's dowry? You are very capable!"

Xiao Changluo knelt down on the ground, his brows drooping, "My son is guilty."

The emperor's eyelids twitched, "You know you're wrong?"

Xiao Changluo immediately said, "I know I was wrong, and when I earn money in the future, I will pay back ten times to the prince and concubine."

The emperor nodded subconsciously, "It's not bad." He came back to his senses and slapped the table angrily, "Now is the time to talk about this? I'm short on you, and you're short on you? Do you want to do business?"

He cursed angrily again, "Things that are useless, if you do business and can lose money, you need to make up for it with the prince's concubine's dowry!"

Xiao Changluo: "..." If I had known about him, I would have had another reason.

Well now, this reason must continue.

What can I do next?
"You can't say that." Xiao Changluo's voice paused, and then continued, "It's also your previous teaching, and I have always kept it in my heart. Young people must have the courage to let go and do it."
