Chapter 241 The Empress and the Emperor Love Their Daughter-in-law
royal palace.
The Queen's Fengyi Palace.
After the morning court session, Emperor Hongde did not even go to the imperial study, but went directly to the Queen's Fengyi Palace.
Queen Luan Xiying was lying on the couch, holding a large piece of paper in her hand, thinking about something.
Seeing Emperor Hongde coming in, Luan Xiying sat up in surprise and asked, "Why did the emperor come to my palace at this time?
Don't you have to review memorials today?"
Emperor Hongde waved his hand, walked directly towards the queen, and sat on the couch.
He took the tea that the queen had just taken a sip of from the small table next to him and drank it directly!
The head palace maid Shu Xiu hurriedly brought the tea over and placed it on the small table, then stepped aside to serve.
"No, I'm here to sit for a while. After having lunch with you, it won't be too late for me to go to the Imperial Study to review memorials."
"Oh." The Queen looked at the sky outside the window. "Is the Emperor hungry? Do you want them to prepare lunch now?"
Emperor Hongde waved his hand again, "No, I'm not hungry yet."
The Queen nodded and asked Emperor Hongde, "It seems that there is nothing important in the court today?"
“It’s nothing important.
However, an interesting thing happened!
That’s why I came to you to talk to you.”
“Something interesting?
What's the matter?
Could it be that Leng Xian, the Marquis of Qinxing, did not attend the morning court again, nor did he ask for leave? "The Queen Luan Xiying leaned back on the couch again, smiling and saying casually.
"Hey! Queen, you are so smart!
How come you got it right all of a sudden?" Emperor Hongde looked at Empress Luan Xiying with shining eyes.
Luan Xiying blinked her eyes and looked at Emperor Hong De in disbelief, "What?
No way?
It can’t be… it’s true?”
Emperor Hong De slapped his thigh and said, "It's true!"
"what?
Then... then..." The Queen didn't know what to say!
"The Marquis of Qinxing did not come to court yesterday, nor did he send anyone to ask for leave.
As a result, he was fined three months' salary;
There are also ten more sticks waiting for him to receive after he goes to court!
Why is it that today... again..." The Queen looked up at the sky... oh, no, she looked at the roof...
"Oh! Could it be... Could it be that Marquis Qinxing is itching for trouble?
Do you think ten sticks are too few and not satisfying enough?
Or is it that there is too much silver in his house?
He was quite generous in wasting Baozhen's dowry!
It's really like a son selling his father's land without any regret! It's not his anyway! Humph!" The Queen frowned, very angry.
Emperor Hongde looked at the angry queen, patted her hands and coaxed her, "Don't be angry!
What I want to tell you is that it’s not that Qinxing Marquis Leng Xian has too much silver now, but that he doesn’t even have a single ounce of silver left!”
"What? What does the emperor mean?" The queen looked at Emperor Hongde in confusion.
"Listen to me and I will tell you slowly...
No one knew whether it was God's will or what, but the Marquis Qinxing's Mansion was robbed overnight by a group of thieves, and not even a piece of paper was left!
Because of this, Qinxing Hou Leng Xian was dumbfounded!
The Qinxing Marquis’s Mansion was also in chaos!
Today, the Marquis Qinxing’s Mansion is filled with ghosts howling and ghosts howling, and there is no normal person left!
They were so distracted that they even forgot to ask for leave before going to court!
I originally wanted to teach that cold guy a lesson.
As a result, Leng Xian somehow remembered that he had not attended court and wanted to ask for leave, so he quickly sent his personal servant into the palace.
That's why I learned about the theft in Marquis Qinxing's mansion.
I immediately issued an order to send Shuntian Prefecture to investigate the case.
In addition, he ordered Shuntian Prefecture to send people to supervise all the shops and farms under Fu Baozhen's name.
Now, it is impossible for Leng Xian, the Marquis of Qinxing, and his gang to steal even a penny from these shops and farms!
It's a pity that there is only so much left of Fu Baozhen's dowry, which can be regarded as a memory for Rongyue!"
"Alas!" Empress Luan Xiying sighed with regret and asked Emperor Hongde: "Is there really no money left in the Marquis Qinxing's mansion now?"
Emperor Hongde nodded and said, "I sent Yu Feng to the Marquis Qinxing's Mansion.
Yu Feng came back and said that the Marquis Qinxing's mansion, from the main hall to the second hall, and then to each courtyard, was even cleaner than if it had just been cleaned!"
"Who... who could have done this?" Luan Xiying asked with a frown.
"I just don't know who did it!" Hong Dedi was also puzzled, "It was done so cleanly and neatly!"
Empress Luan Xiying glared at Emperor Hong De, "It is neat and tidy, but...
Alas! What a pity for those things!
Those are not things from Marquis Qinxing’s Mansion!
It is certainly not anything belonging to Marquis Qinxing or that Yin family member.
Those things...are all Baozhen’s!
Now it belongs to us, Rongyue.
Our life is really hard!
The dowry left by her mother had all been occupied and enjoyed by that scumbag father and that mistress, who used the excuse that Rongyue was young and kept it for her.
Now, it’s all lost again!
"Alas! I wonder if Rongyue was frightened?" Luan Xiying asked anxiously.
Emperor Hongde hurriedly comforted the queen, "Don't worry, Rongyue was not in the mansion at that time.
Yesterday, Duke Anguo and his wife heard that Rongyue was being bullied in Marquis Qinxing's mansion. They were worried, so they asked the two ladies in the mansion to go to the mansion again and take Rongyue away.
Early this morning, the old lady and the two ladies took Rongyue to the hillside manor of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion in the south of the city.
He said he wanted to relax and let Rongyue have a good rest for a few days."
"Oh, that's good! That's good!
Rongyue is not in the house, so I’m glad she wasn’t frightened!
It's just some money, if it's lost, it's lost.
It would be best if we could find it back in the future;
If you can’t find it, that’s okay.
Rongyue also has her maternal family, the Duke of Anguo's Mansion, at home.
What's more, she is our future daughter-in-law!
We can't put Rongyue in a difficult position!
I will have someone open my private vault right away to pick out some suitable hairpins and jewelry, and then get some more banknotes to send to Rongyue."
As the Empress was about to give orders to the palace servants, she was stopped by Emperor Hongde.
