Chapter 243 Amazing Betrothal Gift
  Jing Muling's words were obviously a defense.
  Shen Heshan froze and said sarcastically: "His Royal Highness King Yu said something serious. How dare I scold you? It's my daughter who doesn't understand the rules."
  After a pause, he was unwilling to give up and said: "Also, my daughter is not married yet. Before she officially becomes Princess Yu, if she does something wrong, Weichen, the father, must discipline her."
  "Lest she wait until she enters Prince Yu's Mansion, do things that don't understand the rules, offend Your Highness, or make a joke in Prince Yu's Mansion."
  "Who said you have to be married for it to count?" Jing Muling stood there without moving, with a cold look on her face: "The emperor's golden words of marriage are nothing in your eyes?"
  "Wei Chen doesn't dare." Shen Heshan was so frightened that he bent over and said, "It's just..."
  "Okay." Jing Muling interrupted him and said, "Today is a good day calculated by Si Tianjian. I didn't come here early in the morning to let you cause trouble for me."
  "If you have anything to say, let's talk about it later."
  Jing Muling said, turning her head slightly in Zhengqing's direction.
  Zhengqing responded, turned around and said to the people behind him: "Get ready, bring it in."
  After saying this, Zhengqing supported Jing Muling and slowly walked towards Shen Zhuoxi.
  "Greetings to His Royal Highness King Yu." Shen Zhuoxi saluted. She had seen strong winds and waves. At this moment, her heartbeat was still accelerating uncontrollably.
  I don't know if it's because of Jing Muling's protection or because he came to hire him in person today.
  Jing Muling chuckled lightly, leaned close to her and whispered, "You're early, did it disturb your nap?"
  "Ah?" Shen Zhuoxi thought her face was too dark, so she quickly touched her cheek. Thinking that Jing Muling couldn't see, she took her hand back and said, "How does the prince know?"
  "Guess." Jing Muling could see her little movements, and the corners of her mouth curved wider, and explained: "Looking at the good time, I originally planned to go later, but it is always bad to waste time."
  "I'll go back and rest later. I'll see if I'm not satisfied with it, and I'll send someone to bring more."
  Shen Zhuoxi's face turned slightly red and he said, "I don't understand the betrothal gift either."
  "It's okay." Jing Muling's tone became gentler: "Someone will explain it to you later."
  Everyone can see Jing Muling's love for Shen Zhuoxi.
  How noble is King Yu!
  For a job like this, just call Xipo and get someone with similar status to come to your door.
  Especially in the case of Shen Zhuoxi and Jing Muling's marriage, they just have to go through the motions and get by.
  Unexpectedly, Jing Muling came to hire him personally!
  Aunt Yang, who was standing next to Shen Zhuoxi, winked at Shen Zhuoxi with envy, and whispered: "The prince is so kind to you. He actually got up and hired you himself. Not only was he gentle, but he also took care of your feelings. "
  "In this way, I am no happier than others. Seeing that the eldest lady didn't understand before and insisted on marrying some prince, which led to the current ending."
  Jing Muling stood on the other side of Shen Zhuoxi. She was worried that she would be heard, and her face turned even redder. She said, "Aunt Yang, don't make fun of me. The betrothal gift is just a formality. You have nothing to say."
  When Zhengyang, who was supporting Jing Muling, heard this, he turned around and said, "What the second young lady said will hurt the prince's heart. These betrothal gifts were all prepared by the prince's sincere words."
  "To say that it is the only one in the entire Shengdu, and even in the Eastern Chen Kingdom, is not what the young lady said."
  Shen Zhuoxi's heartbeat was beating fast, and he turned his head to look at Jing Muling, who was silent.
  Jing Muling had a smile on her lips and didn't refute. She just stood quietly as if she didn't hear anything.
  Shen Zhuoxi blushed and couldn't speak.
  "The little girl is just shy." Aunt Yang covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Okay, I won't bother you anymore, let's see what good things His Highness King Yu gives you, and open your eyes too."
  Yu Qinglian, who was not far away, looked at this scene and rolled her eyes to the back of her head.
  The reluctance in her heart also surged up - Shen Zhuoxi was nothing but a little bastard left behind by her soft-heartedness back then, and yet he was as good as he is today.
  In terms of appearance, how can Shen Zhuoxi compare to the charming Shen Xinyu!
  Not willing to accept it, but with a strong sense of jealousy, he silently cursed in his heart: Only a blind person like Jing Muling would use Shen Zhuoxi as a treasure. When he can see in the future, if he can't keep it all, he will have three wives and four concubines. !
  Hum, the higher you are praised today, the worse you will fall down in the future!
  Shen Zehuan looked at her uncontrollable expression and quietly tugged at the corner of her clothes to signal her not to make it too obvious.
  Fortunately, everyone else was looking eagerly at the main entrance, curious about what the betrothal gift was, and no one noticed the mother and son.
  In fact, it wasn't just the two of them who felt sour in their hearts. Shen Wanwan, who was standing next to Shen Zishan, almost had her eyes glued to hers.
  She even hated the deceased Mr. Shen. Why didn't he die earlier? If the anniversary of his death was brought forward, she would be able to meet Jing Muling earlier and avoid having to bring betrothal gifts to her door. Wouldn't her hope become slimmer? !
  Mrs. Zhang was shaking slightly when she held Shen Wanwan's hand, but she was calm and squeezed Shen Wanwan's hand to remind her not to reveal her emotions.
  In addition to them, Shen Heshan and Old Taijun also had complicated emotions. They both wanted Shen Zhuoxi to be favored, but were also afraid that she would be favored. Their emotions were very complicated.
  Everyone present had their own thoughts.
  The people waiting outside, under Zhengqing's instruction, kept bringing things in.
  The leader was Xipo, who was wearing a red suit. Xipo was fat, and her whole face wrinkled up when she smiled, especially her eyes, which were narrowed into slits, adding a bit of joy.
  After entering the door, he looked around and his eyes were fixed on Shen Zhuoxi. He stepped forward and saluted: "Slave Fu Niang, I have met the second young lady."
  "Mommy, no courtesy." Shen Zhuoxi said softly.
  "Today is an auspicious day for magpies to enter the house." After Xipo signaled to Shen Zhuoxi, she faced everyone and said loudly: "At such an auspicious time, His Highness King Yu has hired Miss Shen Er of the Taishi Mansion."
  "Thanks to His Royal Highness King Yu's love, I will sing the betrothal gift list today. I hope you two will be blessed by God."
  After Xipo finished speaking, her eyes suddenly widened when she looked at the gift list. Fortunately, she had seen many big scenes, and she quickly adjusted her mood and said loudly: "One hundred and eighty pounds of gold, a total of nine million taels, because The quantity is huge and can be exchanged for silver notes.”
  When the first sentence came out, everyone present was shocked.
  Nine million taels of gold, all converted into silver, would probably not be able to be piled up in the huge Grand Master's Mansion!
  No wonder Xipo's narrowed eyes just now changed.
  Especially Yu Qinglian, regardless of the rules, interrupted with a sharp voice: "So much gold, converted into silver, is equivalent to half of the national treasury. Even if it is a betrothal gift for a real princess, it won't use this!"
  "Yes." Shen Heshan secretly squeezed his sweat and turned to Jing Muling and said: "Your Majesty, according to the rules, the maximum amount of gold for an employee from the royal family is ten pounds. What you have given is too much. I am afraid that my daughter is not worthy of it. Lots of betrothal gifts.”
  The betrothal gift would be left at the woman's house. Shen Heshan thought about Jing Muling being generous, but he didn't dare to accept so much!
  "I think Miss Shen Er is worth it, that's why she is worth it." Jing Muling's face darkened slightly and she said, "Besides, the post has been changed. I am here to offer you a job, not to negotiate with you."
  Ignoring Shen Heshan's panicked eyes, Jing Muling said to Xi Po, "Continue!"
