Chapter 336 Whose family will you marry in the end?

"Li Shangshu's family was betrothed with ten thousand taels of silver. The betrothal gift included: a purple jade coral screen couch, an ebony bed gilded with precious elephants wrapped with branches, a red sandalwood bed with lotus patterns and a tasseled cold jade bed..."

The eunuch spoke in a high-pitched voice and began to check the betrothal gift list.

Li Shangshu, one of the ministers, straightened his back proudly when he heard the betrothal gift list announced by the eunuch.

According to the news he heard last night, Princess Ninth will choose the most suitable person from among the people who have been hired.

Li Shangshu put a lot of effort into preparing these betrothal gifts just to help his son marry the Ninth Princess.

"Li Shangshu, you have invested a lot of money."

The Taiwei, who was standing beside him, bumped Li Shangshu with his elbow and looked at him teasingly.

Li Shangshu smiled and said, "We are all doing this for the sake of our children, no one should blame anyone else."

The Taiwei snorted coldly.

No matter how much preparation Li Shangshu made, it would not be as large as the betrothal gifts from their Taiwei's family.

All the precious gadgets in the Taiwei Mansion were collected just to catch the eyes of the Ninth Princess.

After checking the betrothal gift list sent by Li Shangshu, the eunuchs took it from the Taiwei Mansion and began to check it sharply according to the betrothal gift list.

"The Taiwei Mansion, the betrothal gift is 5000 taels of silver, and the betrothal gifts include: an Arhat bed carved from mahogany with cloud patterns and inlays, a sandalwood bench carved with Qingluan peony groups, and a four-season screen carved from agarwood..."

Li Shangshu, who was still beaming just now, fell down after hearing the betrothal gift list from the Taiwei Mansion.

This Taiwei Mansion was really desperate, and it was actually willing to offer so many valuable things to hire him. Many of them were treasures that could not be bought in Nanque.

The Taiwei raised his eyebrows and glanced at Li Shangshu, looking like he was sure of victory.

Li Shangshu was so angry that he tossed his sleeves on the spot and his face turned dark.

But this is just the beginning.

As time went on, the bride price given by these ministers became more and more expensive, directly changing from silver to gold.

In fact, some of the betrothal gifts were not even available in the imperial palace.

Although Jin Yunzhi was mentally prepared, he didn't expect that these people would work so hard. Wasn't it because they had emptied their entire family fortune just to marry her?

Jin Yunzhi shook his head, they were really a group of people who would do anything for power.She walked down the steps and stood next to Li Shangshu and the Taiwei, whose faces were already red with anger, "Why did you all make an appointment to come here today to make an appointment?"

Li Shangshu didn't look sideways. When he heard the question, he subconsciously answered, "It's news coming from the palace, saying that the Ninth Princess will choose the future prince-in-law among those hired today."

Jin Yunzhi narrowed his eyes: "..."

News spread from the palace.

That should be the news released by the Queen Mother.

Don’t you want to chant sutras and pray?

This is unbearable.

Li Shangshu realized later, and suddenly looked sideways and saw that it was Jin Yunzhi. His lips trembled, "Nine, nine princesses!"

Jin Yunzhi waved his hand.

After a moment, she raised her eyes and saw that General Chen, who was already confident of winning, turned dark when he heard the eunuch reported the bride price and gift from Pingyang Marquis Mansion.

A betrothal gift of 10 taels of gold.

It's gold!

Is the Marquis of Pingyang planning to marry the Ninth Princess and then the whole family will drink the northwest wind?

The betrothal gift blocked the palace road from the entrance of Liuli Palace to the entrance of the palace.

Outside the palace, the people saw the scene in front of the imperial city gate from a distance.

All whispered.

"These nine princesses are really popular now. So many ministers are vying to betroth her, and the betrothal gifts are lined up at the palace gate."

"Yes, you must know that the Ninth Princess in front of the hairpin is domineering and will be avoided by everyone in Yanyun City!"

"I was still young at the time, but now I have grown up. She is dignified and polite, and her appearance is more and more beautiful. I just don't know who the ninth princess will marry in the end."
