The Supreme Prosecutor of the Tang Dynasty
Chapter 118
"The dowry is indeed indispensable, but the Ministry of Rites has always been responsible for this matter. What do you think should be done, Minister of Rites?"
The Minister of Rites:"……"
Your uncle, didn't you tell me to shut up just now?
He stood up reluctantly, but saw Chen Qiu waving to him repeatedly, and then said:"Your Majesty, this Princess Changle, your Majesty's most beloved princess, is still the eldest princess!"
"The dowry given by the eldest princess will definitely set an example for other princesses."
"No matter what, the dowry of other princesses in the future cannot be higher than that of Princess Changle, right?"
"Therefore, it is better for His Majesty to decide this dowry. The Minister of Rites... Don’t be in trouble!"
Li Er:"……"
Minister of Rites:"(`)!"
So angry! I don’t want to lose face by being ordered around by you, right?
Li Er wanted to curse directly, but he had no choice but to say that everything Chen Qiu said sounded reasonable. For a moment, he couldn't think of anything to say to refute.
Therefore, I can only smile with a dark face and say:"What Chen Aiqing said is reasonable. Let me think about it."……"
"Changle is indeed my heart and soul, and she is also the eldest princess. The dowry must be indispensable.……"
"Let's do this, Minister of Rites, please note down that Princess Changle's dowry is three thousand taels of silver, and the rest of the silks, satins, maids, etc. are all according to the highest standards of the Tang Dynasty!"
"Retreat! As if he was afraid of Chen Qiu's rejection, Li Er was about to run away, but Chen Qiu stepped forward with a smile:"Your Majesty, wait a minute!""
"Is there anything else wrong with Chen Aiqin?"
Li Er was about to cry. He always had a premonition that if he stayed any longer, he would be tricked to the point where there would be no scum left.
"Your Majesty, three thousand taels, I’m afraid it’s not appropriate?"
Chen Qiu blinked...
Three thousand taels? Are you kidding me? Three thousand taels of silver are just the dowry for the eldest princess?
What a beautiful idea!
"This... three thousand taels of silver as a dowry is already the highest standard in the history of our Tang Dynasty. What's wrong with it?"
Li Er's face darkened...
I know you have no good intentions!
It's a pity that I can't run away even if I want to. I'm so angry!
Li Er was almost mad to death, but he could do nothing. He even planned in his heart, The bottom line is ten thousand taels of silver, no more……
"The price of three thousand taels is certainly high, but has His Majesty forgotten that Princess Changle is not yet eight years old? Chen
Qiu blinked and said with a displeased look on his face:"And His Majesty also said that for a while, Princess Changle can live wherever she wants!""
"If Princess Changle continues to live in the inspection house of the minister, then shouldn’t the minister be responsible for Princess Changle’s food and daily life?"
"As for Princess Changle's body of a daughter, she must have the best in terms of food and clothing. How much of an expense is this?"
"This expense is not just a day or two, it is likely five or six years or even more.……"
"How can three thousand taels of silver be enough for a dowry? I'm afraid it's not enough to raise Princess Changle, right?"
"Unless you eat glutinous rice every day? But Princess Changle, how could she endure such hardship? Your Majesty, do you think so?"
"hiss!"
Suddenly, Chen Qiu took a breath of cold air and pretended to have a sudden realization:"Could it be that... Your Majesty wants to treat Princess Changle as a child bride and leave it to me, so that I can raise my future wife by myself?"
"If that's the case...there's nothing wrong with that……"
Li Er:"(╯‵□)╯︵┻━┻……"
Damn it! Damn child bride, can you shut up?
Damn it, we just know this in private, how can you still say it?
Can we talk about this? Tell me, where can I put my royal dignity?
Li Er was almost furious and almost overturned the table in front of him. Fortunately, Chen Qiu's words were not fatal. It seemed like his guess, rather than that he really made Princess Changle a child bride...
But here's the problem!
Thinking of this question, Li Er's face turned dark and his eyes widened...
This question is... is Princess Changle a child bride? yes? No problem, then I will accept the dowry of three thousand taels! After all, she is his child bride and she should be raised by herself!
If not? Sorry, three thousand taels of dowry is far from enough, please add it! Must add!
Now, is it admission? Still don’t admit it?
The problem before Li Er almost drove him crazy...
The key is, can he really admit that he wants Princess Changle to be a child bride? After admitting it, where will the royal family put its face?
Where should Li Er put his face? Why don't you kill an old man?
What's more, even now, if you take a casual look, you can see that the civil and military officials seem to understand, and even have a little fear...
It seems to be saying... Fortunately, His Majesty did not give Princess Changle the marriage to his descendants. Something like that, otherwise...if he didn't have the courage to ask for a dowry in front of Chen Qiu, wouldn't he be at a loss?
Three thousand taels of silver to raise an eldest princess? How is it possible?
Eat chaffy vegetables? Isn't this seeking death? Who dares to feed the eldest princess the bran-thick vegetables?
What would you do if you were replaced? Then you can only break your teeth and swallow it, work hard to make money, and raise Princess Changle!
My mother...
I'm glad I didn't marry that little brat that didn't live up to my expectations...
At this moment, many ministers had this idea in their minds, and this idea could be seen more or less on their faces. Some come.
This discovery made Li Er's face darker...
Well, you don't need to look at it to know that this ridiculous civil and military official was fooled by Chen Qiu again.
Even Li Er himself was involved. For a moment, he didn't know how to answer...
Only Cheng Yaojin, who was informed, was holding his forehead at this moment, with a painful expression on his face.
He didn't know what to do anymore, and he even felt that he and Qin Shubao had helped Chen Qiu cheat Li Eryi?
In the end, Li Er could only stare and said angrily:"Then tell me, how much is appropriate?"
Money and royal dignity?
Sorry, Li Er still chooses face. After all, he is determined to become a saint king and sends his eldest daughter out to be a child bride?
As soon as this incident comes out, it’s good to be a sage with a hammer. It’s not bad if you don’t get poked in the spine.……
"Well... Your Majesty, Rong Chen settles the score."
Chen Qiu pretended to clasp his fingers and began to calculate the accounts.……
"Your Majesty, look at this, by the standards of Princess Changle, this food, clothing, housing and transportation are only a few thousand taels of silver in one year, right?"
"And the maid and other expenses are also a huge amount of income?"
"In addition, during the holidays, if Princess Changle lives in the inspection house, she must also give gifts to His Majesty, right?"
"Gifts are the most expensive things!"
"In this way, the total amount of zero and zero, calculated in one year, is still... ten thousand and eighty taels of silver?"
