The emperor's uncle is the only favorite: the mysterious doctor's crazy concubine is going

Chapter 246 The betrothal gift belongs to her alone
  It was not that Jing Muling had not considered Shen Xinjiao's words.
  However, he felt that there was no difference whether he wanted such a relative or not.
  Even asking for it will cause more trouble.
  Because this family has selfishness deep in their bones, which makes them always feel that they are right.
  But from Shen Zhuoxi's perspective, it seems a bit excessive.
  When Shen Xinjiao saw Jing Muling's brows furrowed slightly, she knew that her words had an effect, so she took a few steps forward and continued: "My lord, if you let the second sister marry alone on the wedding day, I'm afraid she will become the laughing stock of the royal family in the future."
  "When a woman without the support of her mother's family enters her husband's family, even if she is the wife, she can be bullied by the favored concubines. The prince's status is different. In the future, he will have three wives and four concubines. Have you ever thought about this problem?"
  Jing Muling was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I will have no one else but Shen Zhuoxi. If she doesn't want to, she shouldn't leave the Grand Master's residence."
  "Perhaps from now on, we will draw a clear line with the Grand Master's Mansion."
  Before Shen Xinjiao could say anything else, Jing Muling turned her head and said to Shen Zhuoxi, "Am I making things difficult for you by doing this?"
  From the moment Jing Muling spoke for her, Shen Zhuoxi's heart had already softened.
  People who are blood relatives are always making things difficult for her, and of course they want to suck her blood, but Jing Muling stands by her side from beginning to end.
  She had long wanted to say what he said.
  She had already thought about the hypothesis he gave.
  However, no matter how much she hates everything in the Grand Master's Mansion, Princess Xiaoqing's great revenge has not been avenged, and she cannot leave the Grand Master's Mansion for the time being.
  Thinking of this, she turned her head slightly and looked in the direction of Shen Heshan and Yu Qinglian.
  Shen Heshan's face had long been as dark as the darkness before the rain was about to come, and there was a hint of worry, fearing that the old lady would be angry.
  As for Yu Qinglian, although her face was calm, the slight curve of the corners of her mouth that could not help but rise had long betrayed her true inner thoughts.
  In the entire Taishi Mansion, she was the one who wanted Shen Zhuoxi to leave the most.
  The sooner the better, she felt annoyed just looking at Shen Zhuoxi!
  Shen Zhuoxi could see through her thoughts at a glance, and there was no way she could get what she wanted.
  She adjusted her mood, with some sadness appearing on her face at the right time, and said: "No matter what, the Grand Master's Mansion will always be my home. Blood ties cannot be erased. I know that the prince is doing it for my own good."
  "But this place is also my mother's choice. If I go out like this, my mother's spirit in heaven will blame me."
  Jing Muling didn't seem to expect that she would say that, and was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer the question.
  Shen Xinjiao took the opportunity to take a few steps forward, took Shen Zhuoxi's hand, and said with a smile: "We are all a family. They say that the family has no hatred overnight. Do you really hold a grudge?"
  "Besides, it was indeed due to your physical condition in the previous years. If we really investigate, it's Si Tianjian who was the one who told the lies. We, the Taishifu people, are so humble that we dare to go against the destiny."
  Shen Zhuoxi was worried about the lack of steps, so he took advantage of the situation and said: "Fourth sister is right. Besides, the number of people in the Taishi Mansion is withering now. The second lady and the third lady had an accident in the front, and the eldest lady in the back."
  "How can I abandon the Grand Master's Mansion at this juncture?" She said this, then turned to Jing Muling and said, "I know the prince is doing it for my own good, but I can't leave just yet."
  "I haven't had time to repay the kindness the Grand Master's Mansion has treated me over the years."
  Shen Zhuoxi's words were sincere, as if they came from the heart.
  If it weren't for the last sentence, Jing Muling would have seriously believed it.
  But it was precisely because of the last sentence that Jing Muling seemed to have expected what she wanted to do.
  He pretended to be disappointed and sighed: "Since it's your choice, I can't say anything. I've done my duty of filial piety. I just won't come back when I get married."
  "Thank you, Your Majesty." Shen Zhuoxi bowed slightly, even though Jing Muling couldn't see her, she still saluted.
  The betrothal gifts piled up in the yard were still there, so Jing Muling turned around and said, "What do you plan to do with these betrothal gifts?"
  Shen Zhuoxi followed his words and looked at the boxes of different sizes in the yard, and thought for a moment: "The betrothal gift given by the prince is really beyond the normal range."
  "Forget about the rest. It's impossible to store food for a long time on such a hot summer day. It's better to share the portion given to the Grand Master's Mansion and transport all the other things out."
  "I heard that there was a drought in Yuzhou. There was no grain harvest, and even drinking water was difficult. Many refugees who escaped had nowhere to go, and they all flocked outside Shengdu."
  "It just so happens that these things can help them for a while, which can be considered a good thing."
  Jing Muling was quite approving and nodded: "Your method is very good. I will order someone to do it immediately."
  "There are also those silver notes and jewelry." Shen Zhuoxi followed closely: "I don't need them now, please take them out together, Your Majesty."
  "The prince's betrothal gift to the second sister." Shen Zehuan couldn't help but interrupt and said, "How could you let the prince take it away?"
  As long as the thing is in the Grand Master's Mansion, they are sure to get it out of Shen Zhuoxi's hands.
  Everyone has heard how much money we have today. When the time comes, using the old lady as an excuse, Shen Zhuoxi will not be left with nothing!
  Yu Qinglian also thought of this, and then said: "Yes, there has been some unpleasantness today. If I take away the betrothal gift, I'm afraid it will be unlucky and make other people suspicious."
  "How could I not know?" Shen Zhuoxi raised her eyes and looked at their mother and son. She knew exactly what they were thinking. It was just that everyone was pretending to be stupid, so let's pretend to be stupid together.
  She paused and continued: "It's just that today's betrothal gift is too ostentatious, and the bad guys will definitely be concerned about it. If you put so much money around me, I'm afraid it will cause trouble."
  "It is better to leave it to His Highness King Yu for safekeeping. There are many experts around His Highness King Yu, so others will not dare to take action easily. It is more secure."
  Shen Zehuan smiled and said: "Since His Highness King Yu is so generous, he will definitely think of this and send someone to protect the second sister, right, His Highness King Yu?"
  "I thought the Grand Master's Mansion had that ability." Jing Muling's implication was that he was not prepared: "What Zhuo Xi said makes sense. After all, it's not very peaceful when Shengdu comes in."
  "My appointment cost almost half of the royal family's worth. There must be people who were enemies of me in the past. I will follow Zhuo Xi's words."
  Shen Zehuan wanted to continue to persuade, but Yu Qinglian shook her head silently at him, and then said: "The betrothal gift was given by the prince to the second lady. As a woman, I want to ask something inappropriate."
  "If the question is wrong, please forgive me, Your Majesty."
  "If you have anything to say, just say it directly." Jing Muling sneered, "You didn't say a few words right today."
  Yu Qinglian's expression was startled, her hands pinched her palms tightly, and she asked: "The betrothal gift passed through the door and did not fall into the hands of the Grand Master's Mansion. How will the Grand Master's Mansion prepare a dowry for the second lady then?"
  "The Taishi Mansion naturally prepared it according to the rules." Jing Muling couldn't help but said, "The reason why the betrothal gift was not given to the Taishi Mansion was because the Taishi Mansion did not treat Zhuo Xi properly."
  "But..." Yu Qinglian's voice was a little lower: "If you don't have a betrothal gift, why do you need a dowry?"
