But why does the lord insist on marrying

Chapter 631 The Proud Shopkeeper Wu
Xuan'er came in with Zi'er, and when she saw Prime Minister Xia, she just nodded slightly and did not salute.

Prime Minister Xia was already a little displeased, it was just a maid, but she was still very airy.

Now that he is away, Xia Shouyi is the prime minister of a country, so it's not easy to argue with the two little maids, it's too degrading.

Prime Minister Xia said straight to the point: "I am here today to ask where is your concubine's dowry? King Cang and Concubine Cang are no longer alive, so this dowry should belong to your mother's family."

Zi'er sneered in her heart, the daughter and son-in-law had just "passed away" for a few days, the bones were not cold yet, the princess' dear prime minister's parents were already in a hurry to get the dowry, no wonder the princess never went back to her mother's house and insisted on leaving the capital...

After Prime Minister Xia finished speaking, seeing Zi'er's contemptuous smile, he felt inappropriate, and explained: "The princess passed away, and the old man lost his daughter in old age. It is very heartbreaking. I have been sleepless for several nights. I just thought that there is no one in the Cang Palace. The concubine's dowry was taken by the gangsters, so I endured the pain in my heart and came to find it hard, it is more or less a dream left by my daughter."

Zi'er just looked at him coldly, and said: "The princess's dowry, even we don't know. But I can find someone to ask, please wait a moment."

Zi'er went to the backyard, wrote a simple sentence, and let the pigeons fly.The lord once said that if someone comes from the prime minister's mansion, Feige should pass the letter to him.

Prime Minister Xia and the eldest lady didn't know who Zi'er was going to ask for instructions.The closest people to the princess are the three of them, why are there still people?Could it be that Zi'er was greedy for her dowry and found an excuse to slip away...

Da Furen was thinking like this, but she knew she couldn't speak nonsense without any evidence, she just said: "This maid is too unruly, I say it one by one, this Zi Yan was too conniving before she was alive, it is inevitable that she will bully the master."

Xuan'er said displeased: "There is one thing, Mrs. Xia made a mistake. The few of us are not servant girls, but free people."

Prime Minister Xia signaled the eldest lady not to speak, but the eldest lady just kept silent.

He just cursed angrily in his heart, that couldn't cover up the fact that he used to be a slave.

Because the two were not welcomed by everyone, no one invited them to sit down and drink tea, not to mention tea, and there was no water.

Fortunately, not long after the two waited, someone came outside the door.

Against the sun, a tall figure couldn't be seen clearly. Prime Minister Xia didn't see clearly until he came in. Isn't this the local tyrant shopkeeper Wu?Followed by two thugs in brocade clothes.

Prime Minister Xia immediately put on a flattering smile, and took the initiative to say hello: "Master Wu, don't come here without any problems!"

Shopkeeper Wu glanced at him expressionlessly, then sat on the chair that Xuan'er had just wiped clean with a clean towel, and proudly looked at Prime Minister Xia standing beside him with the attitude of a superior.

Prime Minister Xia thought that he was the prime minister of a country, and no matter what the other party was, he was just a businessman, but for some reason, he wanted to worship this person from the bottom of his heart.

Shopkeeper Wu asked arrogantly: "I heard that the prime minister is here today because of Xia Ziyan's dowry?"

Prime Minister Xia hastily replied with a slightly respectful body: "Yes." That respectful expression, I am afraid that he has never seen it before the emperor, it is a kind of inexplicable reverence from the heart.

Shopkeeper Wu showed a strange smile: "What about the 120 eight dowries? Among them, eighty dowry is the handwriting of this... the shop owner, and the other 48 dowries are said to be the betrothal gifts of King Cang and Xia Ziyan. What didn't happen?"
