Chapter 190: Opening the House
"Why is it him?"
"The Eighth Emperor Brother is hidden."
"It seems that we all underestimated him. This old eighth is hiding very deeply."
Many people murmured in a low voice.
"Is it Lao Ba?" His Majesty was a little surprised. This Lao Ba was unknown before. Even he only knew that he had such a son. As for what his son has advantages and good at anything was not known to him. After all, he had to rule the entire dynasty, and his harem was also very large, so he had no time to deal with these trivial matters.
"Okay, then summon the eighth son over here, I want to see what other surprises he can bring to me."
Your Majesty is already forty-seven years old. Although he has passed the heyday of the prosperous and strong energy industry, there is no problem for a while.
Soon, a pretty figure was brought over by the eunuch to stand in front of him.
The Eighth Prince's appearance is very pretty, and he looks a bit like a girl.
This made His Majesty a little unhappy. What he admired was the tall, burly and masculine heir. No wonder this Ba Lao didn't remember him deeply. It turned out that he had never paid attention to him before.
"What do you want? I have promised to agree to the championship and I can agree to the championship."
His Majesty asked indifferently.
"Report to my father, I want to go out to open a mansion." The Eighth Highness said in a humble and arrogant manner.
His Majesty narrowed his eyes and looked at him for a long time, "Who encouraged you to do this."
"Your Majesty, this is all my thoughts." His Highness said loudly.
"I remember you seem to be just thirteen years old this year."
"Yes!" Hearing that his father still remembers his age, the Eighth Highness was a little excited.
His Majesty closed his eyes and the atmosphere fell into a strange silence.
The Eighth Highness stood under nervously.
After a long time, the man sitting in the imperial chariot opened his eyes, "I am sure, and I will announce in the court tomorrow and return to the palace."
The Eighth Highness showed joy in his eyes, "Thank you Father!"
The news that the Eighth Highness was about to open a palace was notified to all the ministers in the court the next day.
No one in the court opposed it, he was just an unknown little prince.
"I didn't expect that Lao Ba's wish was to open a house."
"Haha, you dare to come out to get out of muddy water at such a young age. Lao Ba has a great ambition."
But many princes who received the news showed hostility to the Eighth Highness.
They are not fools. Isn’t Lao Ba who can win the championship in the competition among many princes a fool?
If you really treat Lao Ba as a fool, then he is a fool!
The orders were passed on to the Eighth Highness one by one.
Some are ready to suppress, and some are ready to win over.
There is also the prince who is not interested in the battle for the throne, simply thinking that the eighth brother is very magical and wants to get along well with him.
Xiangyuan, the bedroom of His Majesty's concubine Xiang Concubine.
She gave birth to two princes for His Majesty that dynasty, and she was the biological mother of His Highness the Eighth Highness.
The background of Xiangfei is not simple. She is the eldest daughter of the old head of the Bai family in Jiangnan and the younger sister of the Bai family in Jiangnan.
Although the Bai family in Jiangnan has never had three Dukes in the family that has been passed down for hundreds of years, many important officials in the court have been deeply rooted in Jiangnan.
At the same time, it is said that the Bai family is also secretly involved in the world. As for whether it is true, ordinary people don’t know, and only a few people know it.
"What is Lao Ba doing? I asked him to help his brother, but he won a championship by himself." In the Xiangyuan bedroom, a woman in a long red dress muttered to herself, her eyes full of confusion.
What's this old eighth doing? Why did he suddenly get into this muddy water?
The woman's eyes were full of complexity. Could it be that someone was secretly encouraging Lao Ba to treat Lao Ba as a pawn?
There was a cold light in Xiangfei's eyes, and it seemed that she must investigate it carefully.
She had two sons, and the eldest son was fighting for the throne. As for the second son, she would just be a free prince and be a rich man with peace of mind. Even if the eldest son failed in the end, the second son would not be too involved, because the second son did not involve too much from beginning to end.
But now it was Lao Ba who took the initiative to jump down, and now his two sons are involved.
The layout of the Bai family was also disrupted because they had arranged a lot of arrangements before, and even some relationships and forces in the clan were ready to hand over to Lao Liu. Therefore, there was no unnecessary force to give Lao Eight too much support.
If you don’t have a connection and want to get to the last step? That’s too difficult, and Lao Ba started too late.
But it was her own son after all, which made her very upset: "Lao Ba is really messing around."
After struggling for a long time, Xiang Fei invited her personal maid Xiao Ju, "Xiao Ju, tomorrow will be the day when the Lao Ba opens the mansion. You can take 100,000 taels of silver from our private warehouse to Lao Ba."
Surprised by the huge number of 50,000 taels, Xiaoju showed a strange look, and then respected the order: "Yes."
Xiaoju was amazed after retreating. The Empress really valued Your Highness the Eighth Highness. She had been secretly talking in private that Empress Xiang Concubine only valued Your Highness the Sixth Highness, but did not care much about Your Highness the Eighth Highness, and even made Your Highness the Eighth Highness the servants only a few eunuchs assigned to him in the palace.
But the rumors of this action today were broken without any attack.
What does it mean to have a hundred thousand taels of silver? A poor state only has a tax of about one million taels of silver a year.
Even if the Empress wants to give out 100,000 taels of silver, she will have to bleed heavily.
Moreover, the Empress said it was her private warehouse, which means she did not involve the Bai family, but she paid for it privately.
After Xiaoju retreated, Xiang Fei was still standing in the garden in a daze.
She did not send anyone to Lao Ba because the people she could command in the palace for a long time were the forces of the Bai family besides the guards in the palace.
But she didn't know what the Bai family's attitude towards Lao Ba, so she would never rashly send the Bai family to Lao Ba's side.
It is worth mentioning that the location where the Eighth Highness chose to open the mansion was not in the capital, but chose a royal manor ten miles away from the capital.
This shocked many people. I wonder if this Eighth Highness was crazy about gaining and losing.
Aren't he afraid of danger?
The royal family in the capital was shocked by everything. There were many royal masters, and no one dared to come and cause trouble for a prince.
But he chose the location outside the capital, and it was too late to ask for help if he really encountered danger!
Of course, it is not that the royal people cannot live outside the city, but that the Eighth Highness has no power at all and no one to protect him.
It is said that when His Highness Eighth left the city, he only brought a little eunuch and ten maids given by the royal family, which were pitiful and shabby.
There were still many people coming to give gifts on the first day, but the next day it was Monroe.
No one can see except for insects and birds singing.
Your Highness Eighth is quite novel. He just left the palace and was very curious about everything outside.
"Aren't you worried about danger?" Ren Wu, who was sitting cross-legged on the lotus on the water surface of the pond, opened his eyes and said lightly.
"Isn't you a great companion, the God of Water Deity, here!" The Eighth Highness teased.
Although he is still young, he already understands one truth, that is, do not doubt people without doubt.
Ren Wu chuckled when he heard this.
Suddenly Ren Wu looked outside the manor and said, "The servant who cleaned the manor is here."
