Xiangmen black-bellied woman

Chapter 494 They are all thousand-year-old foxes!

Tu Su Qingli followed closely behind Wei Shi, walking on the way to Chengqian Palace, unconsciously clenched the clothes on his body with his fingers.This set of clothes was specially prepared by Webster. She was stunned when she saw it. It is said that this dress is worth tens of thousands of gold. Webster has been secretly preparing it for ten years, and it took nearly three years to make it. made.

Webster saw her nervousness, so he couldn't help but smiled and said: "Qing Li, although my mother didn't say it clearly in the past, she tried her best to train you. Now you have learned the best appearance, so don't worry, the emperor will I like you."

Tu Su Qingli wanted to bite his lip subconsciously, but then thought of the makeup that he had just painted before, so he quickly stopped his movements: "Mother, but the emperor before..."

Wei Shi looked back: "It's not that you blame yourself for being too disappointing, and the Qiaoling who follows you is also a clumsy tongue. If I had known that girl's achievements were not enough, mother would never allow her to come out with you."

Seeing that Tu Su Qingli still looked a bit lacking in confidence, Wei Shi couldn't help frowning: "Qingli, show your usual aura, the emperor has seen countless beauties, and the empress alone is one of the most beauties in the Da'an Kingdom." Said. What he likes is not only the beauty, but also the unique temperament and style. My mother hired so many people to train you in the past few years, in order to make you unique. Now, everything is under control , you just need to show it.”

"But, mother, I still..." She still had no idea.

Wei Shi patted her hand lightly: "Don't worry, even if you fail this performance, wouldn't there still be your father and me? We have paved the way for you, you just need to walk on it. Don't tell mother, you can't even walk properly? If so, then mother will consider letting your second sister..."

"No, mother, I can!" Tu Su Qingli said quickly, "You and father have spent so much effort for me, I will definitely be able to."

Webster nodded in satisfaction: "Okay, she is indeed a good daughter of my mother." The Tusu family has been planning secretly for so long for this great opportunity. If Tusu Qingli really can't do it, then even her own daughter , she also had to give up.There are also many concubines in the family, all of whom have been carefully cultivated, and those who are able will live there.

Soon, they arrived outside Chengqian Palace. The red lacquer pillars were tall and majestic, and the golden colored glaze was solemn and noble... Just one glance made Tu Su Qingli feel like a drum beating in his heart. If she could become the emperor's concubine, then She can enjoy the eyes of the world's respect forever, and she can always be by the side of the most honorable man in the world.

In the main hall, after a toast was over, Baili Junyi looked at everyone with a smile on his face: "Today, dear friends, don't neglect my honored guests. Both of them are very important to me. Prince Yi, Patriarch Tu Su, don't mind the two of you, we were supposed to host a separate banquet, but I really wanted to meet the two of you, so I put the banquet together."

Prince Yi had already recovered from the shock of Shen Ninghua's beauty, and immediately toasted after hearing the words: "His Majesty the Emperor is too polite, one more person and more excitement at the banquet is nothing."

Ok?A smile flashed in Baili Junyi's eyes. He clearly said that he and Tu Su Qingyun were invited at the same time, but what Prince Yi said just now clearly regarded Tu Su Qingyun as the extra one, which is very interesting.

Baili Junyi nodded with a smile, and after drinking a glass of wine in response to Prince Yi's compliment, he turned his head to look at Tu Su Qingyun: "Patriarch Tu Su is really imposing. Recently, I have heard about the deeds of the Patriarch many times, and I admire him very much. .”

Tu Su Qingyun got up quickly, even if the Tu Su family was behind him, but now, he is just a white body without an official position:

"My majesty, the grassroots came to the capital and saw the bustle and bustle of the capital for a moment. I couldn't help but feel like I had come to a paradise. The Tusu family has been secluded for a long time and has long been isolated from the outside world. It feels like a hundred years since I came out. Feelings, so it is a joke for the emperor to watch and travel around in the capital."

Shen Ninghua smiled slightly, and described visiting officials everywhere as sightseeing, and this Tu Su Qingyun was considered talented.Baili Junyi smiled and said nothing, only nodded slightly.

Tu Su Qingyun continued: "Your Majesty, the grassroots have been walking around in the capital these days. Seeing the prosperity and prosperity of the capital of Da'an, I deeply feel that the Emperor is wise. However, I still saw many disaster victims entering outside the city. I can't help but think of this time. Heavy snow in winter and spring."

"The emperor and the empress are wise, and the disaster relief is extremely timely. Now the snow disaster has passed smoothly, but there are still many people who are displaced and cannot return to their homes. That's why they had the courage to find Mr. Zuo and ask Mr. Zuo to report to the emperor on their behalf. The grass people are willing. Donate all the family property and fulfill the responsibility of the people of Da'an."

Baili Junyi smiled: "I appreciate the kindness of the head of the Tusu family, but the Tusu family can be regarded as a century-old family. It has been passed down from the previous dynasty to the present. The entire family property is the painstaking efforts of several generations. It is too much to donate it all." some."

Tu Su Qingyun hurriedly stepped forward: "The emperor understands the righteousness, and the grassroots are very moved. It's just that the family wealth is something outside of the body. When the Tu Su family made a fortune, it was doing business among the common people, and it relied on the help of many common people. For the people and for the people, how can we sit idly by now that the people are suffering. Money can be made again, but human life is worth ten thousand gold."

As soon as this remark came out, it immediately attracted countless praises from officials.

"Patriarch Tu Su is really extraordinary."

"The lower officials admire it, and those who admire it cast their minds on the ground. They can earn money whenever they want, but the common people can't wait."

"That's right... Your Majesty, I beg for orders on behalf of Patriarch Tu Su, and ask His Majesty to reward Tu Su's family."

"Your majesty, this heart of benevolence and righteousness really moves the world. The emperor bestows rewards on the Tusu family, which can be regarded as an example for other aristocratic families in the world."

"Yes, you should set an example for the world..."

However, Tu Su Qingyun repeatedly saluted the officials who spoke for him: "Your lords love you, the grass-roots people are really ashamed. The family motto of Tu Su's family has always been like this. The grass-roots people are just acting according to their heart, so they don't deserve such praise."

Prince Yi's face turned black. Just now he satirized that the Tu Su family came to have fun. Now the Tu Su family slapped him in the face. The prince who came here stood aside, it was really deceiving.

Thinking about it, he couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, the king and others have not been in the capital for a long time, and I don't know much about the head of the Tusu family. However, I heard something that the Tusu family is willing to donate 3000 million taels of silver. , I don’t know if this is true or not?”

Baili Junyi looked at Tu Su Qingyun: "Patriarch Tu Su?"

Tu Su Qingyun cupped his hands to Prince Yi and said, "Report to His Royal Highness, that is indeed the case."

Prince Yi was full of admiration, raised his wine glass and said, "I heard Patriarch Tu Su say before that what is taken from the people is for the people, and I am also very impressed by this sentence. I didn't expect that the Tu Su family can only take so much money at once. Silver taels, it's amazing, I want to toast you!"

With a smile in Shen Ninghua's eyes, she couldn't help but look at Prince Yi again, this person is really amazing.Tu Su Qingyun said that the sentence was taken from the people and used by the people, just to show his Tu Su family's demeanor, but this Prince Yi just connected his words back and forth, secretly ironic:

The 3000 million taels was clearly earned by the Tusu family from the common people, and it took so little time to earn so much, which shows how dark the Tusu family's heart is.Donating now is just a matter of conscience, why bother to say that I am so noble.

Tu Su Qingyun didn't even dare to say that he didn't dare, so he could hear the sarcasm in Prince Yi's words: "Originally, we should be able to donate more, but since the previous dynasty, the family has been hidden from the world, and many disciples in the family only know how to consume. It’s useless. The grassroots couldn’t bear the style of the disciples in the clan, so they simply took out all the money from the previous family, hoping that the disciples would start over and do things down-to-earth.”

The money was handed down from the previous dynasty. The Tusu family has been hidden for a long time. Even if they plundered the people's interests, they were from the previous dynasty. After the establishment of Da'an Kingdom, the Tusu family only spent money and did not make any money. What else can you provoke?
Prince Yi smiled and said: "Patriarch Tu Su is so courageous, this king really admires it, if this king has such money, he can't bear to give it all. After all, there are so many people in the family who need to support, It’s okay for this man to be tired, but this woman, especially this king’s daughter, can’t let her be wronged, the daily expenses and the dowry for future marriage are all a lot of money!”

Does this mean that the Tu Su family's daughter has no dowry?Said that the Tusu family treated their children harshly for show?Or is it implying that the Emperor Tusu's family did not give all their property?
"Who is ashamed to say that, Caomin originally wanted to leave some dowry for his daughter, but his wife understood the righteousness and said that since he is helping the people, he should do his best. As for the daughter's dowry, he will inherit her dowry. ..." Tu Su Qingyun said with a rather ashamed expression.

Prince Yi fell on his back angrily, snorted coldly and said nothing.He couldn't say that it would be extremely inhumane for his wife to donate the dowry.

Baili Junyi and Shen Ninghua looked at each other, and the defense against Tu Su Qingyun in their hearts rose again. A commoner without an official position can be so calm in the face of a foreign prince and block the other party. Mind and temperament are admirable.

Seeing that Tu Su Qingyun had the upper hand, the officials who spoke for him spoke again: "Speaking of which, I have heard about the eldest lady of the Tu Su family, and it is said that she is currently living in the palace."

Tu Su Qingyun raised his head and looked in Shen Ninghua's direction, not knowing how to answer.

Shen Ninghua smiled slightly, and said: "That's right, this lord is well-informed. If you don't want to tell me about this palace, you have already heard about it. During the border battle, the emperor was injured by an assassin. Thanks to this Miss Tu Su who saved her with righteousness."

The empress actually directly acknowledged Tu Su Qingli's life-saving grace. Could it be that the emperor really intends to accept Tu Su Qingli?
