Concubine to conquer the world

Chapter 79

Gong Jiu's heart skipped a beat, the emperor reacted so strongly, did he say something wrong?
Pressing his head down a bit, he whispered, "Yes."

The emperor didn't make a sound, his brows were tightly locked.

The sixth daughter-in-law is filial and knowledgeable, which makes him very pleased.

Compared with the other princes and concubines who only know how to dress up in fancy dress, this one from the old six family is the most virtuous and virtuous.

But she is so generous that every time she cooks delicious food, she never forgets the people around the palace. How can the meager salary of the shogun's palace be enough for expenses?
If it's not enough to spend, will I not be able to eat the snacks she made in the future?

Gong Jiu looked at the emperor's thoughtful look, and his heart was pounding.

He didn't know where he said the wrong thing, he turned his head silently and slapped himself softly. Being with a king is like a tiger. He has been with you for decades, but there are still omissions.

Every time the emperor made this expression, he had to make a major decision.

Concubine Mu, if you have been convicted of any crime today, it is all due to the clumsiness of this old servant.
Gong Jiu faintly felt guilty.

After eating the last piece of cake, the emperor pondered for a while and finally asked, "Is the salary from the Shogun's Palace too little?"

As soon as these words came out, Gong Jiu silently vomited a mouthful of blood in his heart.

He was almost holding back his internal injuries. He never expected that the emperor would be figuring this out after being silent for so long!

I thought to myself: The shogun's mansion pays a lot less money, don't you know it?
The princes and princesses all wore gold, silver, brocade clothes and food, but only the sixth prince's mansion looked shabby, not as good as the noble families in the capital.

Thinking about it, compared to the royal children in the palace who regard themselves as noble, the sixth prince, Nan Xun, has a good character and a low-key behavior, and is the most modest prince.

If it wasn't for the things that happened that year that caused him to be ignored from then on, he would be the most beloved prince.

His talent is outstanding, and he is above all the princes.

Although his right leg is inconvenient, he used his strength to prove that his literary and martial arts skills are not inferior to other princes in the competition last time.

Regrettably, the emperor's indifference towards him was like a piece of ice for a thousand years.
Although he thought so in his heart, it was not his turn to intervene in the emperor's housework.

He lowered his head a little, and stood humbly beside the emperor without making a sound.

"On weekdays, the chatterbox can't be closed when it's opened. Why are you dumb today?" The emperor frowned slightly.

"The slave is afraid of making you unhappy by saying the wrong thing." Gong Jiu quickly replied.

"But it's okay to say..." The emperor leaned back on the seat, as if he was listening attentively.

Gong Jiu's forehead was dripping with sweat, and he said embarrassingly, "Compared with other princes, the salary in the Muwang Palace is indeed not much, but..."

"However, the sixth prince has always been frugal, and his food and clothing are very simple, and the salary of the palace is enough for the monthly expenses."

Dare not to say any more, he stopped at this point, and silently turned his head and wiped his forehead with his sleeve, feeling uneasy.

The emperor stretched out his hand to stroke the exquisitely groomed goatee, and slightly narrowed his piercing eyes.

Thinking about Gong Jiu's words carefully, Nan Xun's cheek that never smiled appeared in his mind.

He didn't see him many times, but in his impression, every time he saw him standing side by side with other princes, he was the most low-key and inconspicuous one.

Gong Jiu's words are correct.

Nan Xun is the prince who is the least greedy for comfort among the princes.

He was also the only prince who would not ask for favor in front of him.

Nan Xun's temperament is very similar to when he was young.
