Chapter 346 If a person is shameless, he is truly shameless
Marquis Qinxing thought about who had been in the mansion since it was robbed...
I couldn't help but feel sad.
The eunuchs from the palace came to deliver the emperor's instructions of punishment;
Zheng Tong, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, came. He was only ordered to investigate the theft case in the marquis' mansion.
Apart from that, there were only people blocking the door to collect debts.
I believe the news of the Marquis's current predicament has spread throughout the capital!
But with so many colleagues in the court, not one of them came to give him a few taels of silver for emergency.
Doesn’t his own daughter have the emperor’s decree to marry her?
I am the emperor's future relative!
Just for the imperial decree granting the marriage and for the identity of the emperor's future in-law, the emperor should also reward some gold and silver and other valuables to help the marquis's mansion tide over the difficulties!
If the emperor expresses his intention, I believe all the officials in the court will come to him and present him with gifts!
But the emperor... the emperor made things worse by beating him with a stick and fining his salary!
If the emperor treats me like this, who among my colleagues in the court will lend me a helping hand?
How am I going to survive with nothing in my hands and no money?
But... where can I get a large sum of money?
Anguogong Mansion...
Thinking of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion, Leng Xian shuddered!
Knowing that Leng Rongyue was not in the Duke of Anguo's Mansion, she went to Banshan Manor.
Leng Xian knew in his heart that even if he rushed to Banshan Manor, it would be in vain since people from the Anguo Mansion were there!
Leng Xian felt that he was at his wit's end!
After all, I am the emperor's relative! I am Prince Yu's future father-in-law!
Prince Yu...
Yes, there is also Prince Yu!
Others may be merciless and refuse to help you.
But, Prince Yu is his future son-in-law!
When my father-in-law's mansion got into trouble, it's only natural for a son-in-law to lend a hand... uh... right?
Although it is embarrassing for a father-in-law to ask his son-in-law for money, it is better to lose face than to have no money!
Leng Xian sat up, seriously considering the possibility of getting silver from Prince Yu's Mansion...
At this moment, Leng Xian's already little sense of shame was made even more angry by his shamelessness, and he ran away from home!
Without any sense of shame, Leng Xian completely let go of his greed!
Isn't it too easy to get the silver from Prince Yu's Mansion?
Leng Xian thought that this possibility was getting bigger and bigger, and he even came up with one, two, three possibilities...
The first one, of course, is the imperial decree granting marriage!
With the Emperor's imperial decree granting marriage, he is Prince Yu's real and definite father-in-law, there is no doubt about it!
As for the second one, a son-in-law is half a son!
Isn't it normal for the son to show filial piety to his father and give him some money to spend?
Third, my daughter is a beauty from heaven!
Isn't a daughter of a noble family with extraordinary beauty worth tens or even hundreds of thousands of taels of silver?
It's worth gold!
Leng Xian was almost ready to sell Leng Rongyue directly at a price!
If Leng Rongyue was right in front of him right now, Leng Xian would probably be able to pack up Leng Rongyue and send her to Prince Yu's mansion, then bargain and sell her for a large sum of money!
He was used to a luxurious life, and that was the kind of life he, a dignified marquis, should live!
Nowadays... my creditors block my door every day, my meals are watery, and I have no money to rely on...
He can't live like this...
Oh, of course there is a fourth one. Even if His Royal Highness Prince Yu is unwilling to give the money directly, then... borrow... lend it to him, right?
Get the silver first.
When Leng Rongyue marries into Prince Yu's mansion and becomes his wife, will His Royal Highness Prince Yu still have the nerve to chase his father-in-law and ask for money?
Even if Prince Yu insists on paying back the money himself, doesn't he still have Leng Rongyue?
After all, Leng Rongyue has the support of the Anguo Mansion, an outside family.
Even if Fu Baozhen's dowry is lost this time, when Leng Rongyue reaches the age of 15 and the day of her wedding comes, the Anguo Mansion will have to give Leng Rongyue a decent dowry. At worst, the dowry can be regarded as repayment for the money borrowed today!
Here and there...Prince Yu’s Mansion is not at a loss either!
Leng Xian had coveted Leng Rongyue's mother's dowry, and now, he was even planning on Leng Rongyue's future dowry!
It’s true, if a person is shameless... uh... really shameless!
Leng Xian thought about it and suddenly felt that the darkness before his eyes was dispelled, and he saw the light again!
That’s right, I’m a marquis and the father-in-law of Prince Yu, why should I worry about money?
Thinking of this, Leng Xian perked up and shouted outside the house, "Zhongshun! Zhongshun! Come in now!"
The outside Zhongshun...
His own little house had been occupied by his master, so Zhongshun could only sit on the small bench outside the house, staring blankly and waiting for his master's instructions.
It's okay when there is a little sunlight during the day, but when it gets dark and the sun sets, it gets really cold!
Zhongshun wanted to go into the house and find a thick piece of clothing to wear in his closet.
But, to be honest, he really didn't want to go in because his master was lying inside.
First, I don't want to see the master with such a miserable look on his face;
Second, my master is now poorer than me!
If I go in and search through the boxes and cupboards for clothes, what if the master takes a fancy to one of them and takes it away...
Oh! Be patient. It is better to be patient now than to wait until it is really cold and you have no thick clothes to wear!
There's no way. If you have a master like this, you have to be careful!
