Chapter 124 The Glass King's Confusion
When Chu Yuchen said that he would give Mu Shuyao a separate dowry, everyone didn't think much of it. After all, there was a precedent for this in Tianli. When the emperor's sister got married, the British government had prepared a private dowry, but then In fact, to put it bluntly, it was just money for the woman's private house, not much.

But when the little eunuch who sang the gift list reported everything on the gift list one by one, not only the Mu family, but also Gu Luoer and others were dumbfounded. Their family background is not weak, and it can be said that the good things they have seen are also considered There are quite a few, but there are not many treasures in this pile of betrothal gifts, and some of them have not been seen, or even heard of.

Here, the emperor deliberately ordered the Ministry of Rites to add a dowry, of course no one would suspect that it was fake, but the two families got married, the emperor had something to do with it, and she, Mu Shuyao, did not marry into the royal family, so the dowry needs to be paid by the Ministry of Rites.

But thinking about how much King Li was favored by the emperor, everyone was relieved, just watching the big boxes being carried into Mu's residence, everyone's eyes showed a look of envy.

Here, the Mu family's face showed a smile. With these things, the Mu family's lost face has been regained.

Only Mu Yanran and Mu Yuqing's complexions became more and more ugly following the little eunuch's singing. Why did that bitch Mu Shuyao not only get Li Wang's fancy, but even the emperor also looked at her differently.

Mrs. Wang was also thinking about how to get this money. Her daughter is not married yet, and her natal family is not rich. If she doesn't prepare a dowry for her daughter now, how can she marry into the second class with dignity in the future? Prince's Mansion!
It's just that she also knows that Tianli's regulations clearly stipulate that the private dowry is in the hands of the married woman herself, which is her private money.

But she would absolutely refuse to let her give all these things to that lowly girl Mu Shuyao.

In Mrs. Wang's mind, everything that goes into Mu's house should belong to her and her pair of children. No matter what it is, it should be hers to marry Li Wang, so these things are naturally hers. Yes, she didn't think there was anything wrong with thinking so.

It's just that she didn't want to think about why her precious daughter made such a fuss and refused to marry Chu Yuchen.

"My lord, my lord, isn't this too much?" Mu Yongnian followed the words of the little eunuch, "His Royal Highness Li Wang gave Miss Mu Er eight shops in the capital city and two Jingxiao Zhuangzi; Princess, and also gave a house on Zhuque Street, four Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing, and 10 mu of land. His Royal Highness Li Wang also gave Yongkang Princess pocket money of [-] taels of silver." Luo Luo asked in shock.

"Is there a lot? I don't think it's too much at all. As for the dowry to the Mu family, I think it's too much." Chu Yuchen glanced at the Mu family present, with boundless coldness in his eyes.

When I first met Yaoyao, she didn't have a good life at all. If she didn't have her own skills, she would have starved to death in the countryside. Giving such a little thing to Mu's family was not only embarrassing for Mu Yongnian, but also for Mu Yongnian. It was also to remind them how they drove their daughter out of the Mu Mansion.

Hearing Chu Yuchen's words, Mu Yongnian was taken aback for a moment, feeling that he had nothing to hide in front of the glass king. Could it be that he already knew what happened back then?
Thinking of this, she glanced at Mu Shuyao sharply. At this moment, she was holding the gift list handed over by Nanny Gui.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wang rushed over to grab it, but was sent flying by Yuan Fei.

"Mrs. Mu, what do you want to do to my future concubine?" Chu Yuchen frowned, and walked in front of Mu Shuyao while controlling the wheelchair, "I wonder if you are satisfied with these betrothal gifts?"

"Why?" Mu Shuyao asked three words.

Chu Yuchen smiled brightly and said, "You and I already have a marriage contract, and now I'm just obeying my mother's order."

"But doesn't the lord only have marriage contracts with the daughters of the Mu family?" Mu Shuyao asked back, but her eyes glanced at Mu Yanran, who was blushing and blushing.

"Aren't you the first daughter of the Mu family? And the daughter of the original spouse?" He turned his head to look at Mu Yongnian and said, "Master Mu, you are right!"

"No, that's right." Mu Yongnian had no choice but to say that. Who told him to say that when he gave the emperor's paper. If he changed his words now, the two big Buddhas beside the emperor will be there. It won't be long, let alone this. Sitting in the hot right-hand position is whether the head can be kept or not.

Hearing what he said, Chu Yuchen became consummated, raised his eyebrows at Mu Shuyao and said, "Yaoyao, what else do you have to say now?"

Just when Mu Shuyao was about to speak, Mrs. Wang pulled Mu Yanran and squeezed to Chu Yuchen's side, flattering her and said, "My lord, the Mu family has always had only one daughter, and Shuyao's mother has been dead for many years. Not a concubine, before the master just felt sorry for her growing up outside, so he said this."

"Oh, so?" Seeing Mrs. Wang's shameless look, Chu Yuchen seemed to have something churning in his stomach, and asked while holding back his nausea. He didn't mind causing Mu Yongnian more trouble, so he could also please Yaoyao.

"So the one who has a marriage contract with the prince should be my family." Mrs. Wang ignored her daughter's struggle and pressed her hand.

Hearing this, Chu Yuchen couldn't help but cast a mocking look at Mu Yongnian, but with a harmless smile on his face, he said, "Oh, Eunuch Jin!"

"The slave is here!" Jin Bao immediately stood behind Chu Yuchen, waiting for orders.

"I haven't spent much time in Beijing in the past two years. When did our Tianli's regulations change? When I met the emperor yesterday, I didn't hear him mention it!" Chu Yuchen asked with a puzzled look on his face. .

"Returning to the lord, the law of Tianli was set by the ancestor emperor himself, and the emperor has no intention of revising it." Although Jin Bao didn't know that Chu Yuchen was asking such a question, he still replied respectfully.

When Chu Yuchen heard this, a tangled look appeared on his face, "Master Mu must also be familiar with Tianli's laws, right?" Turning to Mu Yongnian, he asked.

Mu Yongnian only felt that Chu Yuchen's eyes looked a little silly, but he still had to say respectfully: "I don't dare to be familiar with it, but I don't dare to know half of it when I am an official in the court."

"That's just right, I have a doubt here, please hope Lord Mu can clear it up." Chu Yuchen glanced at the Mu family members, with a trace of coldness in his eyes.

"My lord, please."

"Has it been said in Tianli's law that after the death of the original spouse, the children born by the original spouse are not the sons and daughters of the first wife?" the old god Chu Yuchen asked on the ground.

Mu Yongnian turned his head and gave Mrs. Wang a hard look. What's the point of bringing up this topic for such a brainless girl? Her own daughter refused to admit to this engagement before, but now that she saw the dowry, she couldn't help it. Jealously wanting his daughter to take his place, how can there be such a good thing in the world, and now Li Wang forced himself to answer, what to say!
