Chapter 42
"The sky is falling, and my prince will support it. What are you afraid of? This is a special gift from my prince. It is enough for you to expand the Lin Mansion by three or five times. Don't you think it's too small?" Ma Zhonglin asked with a sneer road.

"Don't dare, dare not, I don't mean that. The gift from the prince must be heavy, but I'm afraid that the emperor will really blame me, and I will lose my life." Lin Zhongyuan still had a bitter expression on his face.

Ma Zhonglin couldn't help but look ferocious, he lifted Lin Zhongyuan's skirt, and threatened coldly: "Lin Zhongyuan, I warn you, it's not that you agree or disagree now, it's my prince who doesn't want to marry your daughter, and you must accept the bride price." Accepted."

Lin Zhongyuan's face turned pale with fright, and seeing Ma Zhonglin's ferocious face, he quickly smiled and said: "Yes, yes, Mr. Ma, please be merciful, and I'll just accept it. Come here, bring the dowry in."

"You're smart." Ma Zhonglin pushed Lin Zhongyuan away, and Lin Zhongyuan hurriedly smiled carefully: "Mr. Ma, please calm down, and thank the prince for being so respectful of my daughter."

"Okay, I'll stop here. Miss Lin, please get ready tomorrow morning, my prince's sedan chair will pick you up on time." Ma Zhonglin dropped these words, turned around and left.

The main hall of the Lin Mansion was filled with six large boxes of dowry gifts, almost occupying all the space. Bai Xuefeng rushed in, saw the six large boxes, and opened her mouth in surprise: "My God, this ghost king is so heavy." The dowry gift is comparable to Jing Yu's gift money when she got married, master, you are crazy, how can you bring it in? If the emperor blames it, how can you explain it?"

Looking at the six boxes of betrothal gifts, Lin Zhongyuan also had a frowning face. His legs were limp and he sat on the chair with a flustered expression: "Madam, we can't afford to offend anyone? Although the ghost king was not favored before, he has become more and more popular recently. Most of the forces in the court have already started to support him, and the emperor has inexplicably valued him, I am only a fourth-rank official, how can I offend my superiors and not accept this dowry?"

Bai Xuefeng couldn't care less about the crime of beheading, and opened the box in front of her eyes. The golden gold bars in the box blinded her eyes. She couldn't help but pick up the two and weighed them: "It's real gold and silver. My lord, with this money, we will get rich."

"Ma'am, what are you doing? Hurry up and put the gold bar back intact. You can't take it." Lin Zhongyuan was timid. Although he was greedy for money, he still cherished his life after all.

"Are you confused? So many gold, silver and jewels are sent to us, don't you feel moved? Why should I put them back? This was originally given to us, master, I think this cheap daughter sold it for a high price " Bai Xuefeng looked at the room full of glittering gold, he had been blinded by interests, and had already wiped away his hatred for Lin Qiutang, leaving only the gold in his eyes.

"Get your dirty hands away, this is my betrothal gift." A gust of wind swept in from outside the door, Lin Qiutang snatched the gold bar from Bai Xuefeng's hand, and put it back in place coldly.

Bai Xuefeng immediately became angry, pointing at Lin Qiutang's nose and yelling: "You heartless stinking girl, it was a waste of money for the Lin family to raise you up, this betrothal gift should have been received by the master, why don't you let me touch it?" what."

"Really? Who said that I didn't get married into the ghost king's mansion just now? Why are you so interested in my dowry now?" Lin Qiutang sneered coldly, and at the same time was shocked by Huangfuhan's generosity. Favored prince, where did so many gold and silver treasures come from?Could it be that he was robbed somewhere today?
"It's really stupid. If you don't marry into the ghost king's mansion, you will really die. If you marry, maybe the emperor will spare you if you are merciful." Bai Xuefeng suddenly said the words, because she really I love the gold and silver so much.

Lin Qiutang naturally knew that she didn't have such good intentions, but her words made some sense. Although she wrote a letter of divorce and divorced Huangfuhan on impulse, as long as she married him again, the emperor might think it was between husband and wife. The little fights have been messed with, if you don't marry, you will really deceive the emperor and despise Tianwei.

But, do you really want to marry?Would that horrible old woman send someone to assassinate her?That old woman looked like a cruel and merciless master, maybe she would really kill her.

No matter what, it's death. Lin Qiutang's face was sombre, and his black eyes rolled around. If it is serious, it must be that offending Tianwei is more terrible. That old woman loves Huangfuhan so much, maybe she can be fooled by asking Huangfuhan to ask for mercy. Woolen cloth?
What a failure, how could she push herself to such a point where she couldn't advance or retreat?Lin Qiutang began to reflect a little bit. Every step she takes in the future must be carefully thought out, and she can no longer act rashly. Otherwise, in this feudal society where the monarch is supreme, if she is not careful, her life will be lost. Wouldn't she miss it in vain? Did you miss this chance of rebirth?
"In this case, I'm married, but I still have one more request. The dowry is divided into two points. These three are for my mother, and the remaining two boxes are for the two of you. Don't tell me you don't agree." Otherwise, I would rather die than marry." After Lin Qiutang finished speaking, she ordered the servant who was standing there in a daze: "Bring me these three boxes."

"Hey, Lin Qiutang, what do you mean? Your mother swallowed three big boxes all by herself? It's not fair. I think it's divided into three parts. I want four boxes from the master, and your mother keeps two boxes." Bai Xuefeng watched the money go out. Flow, my heart aches so badly, I stepped forward and said domineeringly.

"No, you don't agree? Well, I'll just sit at home and wait for the emperor's imperial decree to arrive. This betrothal gift will be sent back to Ghost King's Mansion intact." Lin Qiutang sat down on a chair leisurely, with a resolute expression. Said.

Bai Xuefeng was really annoyed by her, if it wasn't for these boxes of silver, she wouldn't have endured this resentment, so she could only say angrily: "Okay, you're ruthless, but you have to put these two The box is exchanged for these two boxes."

"Are you haggling with me? I don't know how to do business, and I don't know how to weigh. I think these three boxes are pleasing to the eye, and I want these three boxes, and I can't do without one box." Comparing toughness with her, Lin Qiutang I don't want to compare with her.

Bai Xuefeng had really learned a lot, once again she looked at Lin Qiutang with unfamiliar eyes, she was different, she was really a different person, a shrewd and vicious enemy that made her deeply fearful.

"Okay, do as you said, and take away your three boxes." Bai Xuefeng didn't insist anymore, if she persisted, I'm afraid she won't get any benefit.

Lin Zhongyuan slumped on the chair, watching the wonderful fight between the two, he didn't know whether to be worried or happy, but if these boxes of gold and silver were added for no reason, he could use them to buy officials and get promoted, thinking My heart beats when I think about it.

Ghost Palace!
It was already nighttime, when the lights came on, the quiet Ghost King's Mansion was extraordinarily peaceful. Sitting on a chair, Huangfuhan saw Ma Zhonglin coming in, and his expression flashed with joy: "Have you delivered all the betrothal gifts?"
