One million taels?

Mu Tinglan was surprised again.

If I remember correctly, Lin was just a girl next to her great-grandmother before, without any background. If it weren't for the great-grandmother's decision to send Lin to her grandfather's house in order to make the general's house sprout, there would probably be nothing Lin would do. Because the grandfather and grandmother had a deep relationship with each other, he was just as polite to the two concubines he was carrying. Such a situation would mean that Lin and the other concubine would not have much favor and rewards.

So, how did Lin, a concubine who has no background and is still a girl, pay out a million taels of silver?

It seems that Lin has never been in charge of Zhongfu, and has never been out of Zilanyuan. Even if she saves money from the monthly routine, she will not be able to save a million taels in her life, right?

This is one million taels, not one hundred taels.

"Lin, what else can I earn?" Mu Tinglan said.

"Miss, the general didn't want to accept that person at the beginning. Although the man had a shop given by the Grandmad, the shop was not good either." Judging from the income of an ordinary shop, it would take fifty or sixty years to get an income of one hundred taels.

"How did Lin get this million tael?"

"I don't know this." Mo Xiang shook her head and said.

"You go and call me brother to come here." She paused and said, "I'd better go over."

"Where is Nannan going?" Mu Tinglan was about to get up when Dingyuan Hou's voice came.

Mu Tinglan got up and walked out to see that Dingyuan Hou and Chang had already walked in. Mu Tinglan quickly greeted him, "Uncle, aunt."

"How about it, can you get used to living in the Marquis' Mansion?" Chang walked over and held Mu Tinglan's hand and said.

"Yeah." Mu Tinglan said, "Thank you aunt for your concern."

"Silly child, what are the two families talking about?" Chang said angrily, then pulled Mu Tinglan to sit down together.

"Are Nannan going out to play? If she wants to go out, she will call her cousin and the others." Dingyuan Hou said with a smile.

Mu Tinglan shook her head, "No, I want to ask my brother for something."

"Oh? What's the matter? Come and listen to it, maybe my uncle knows it too."

Mu Tinglan thought about it and then said, "Actually it's not a big deal, it's just some things about the second house of the General's Mansion. If you want to ask your uncle, you should know more."

"The second house?" Dingyuan Hou and Chang looked at each other, "The second house has all the money for the second house?" But although there was something happened to the Zheng family, there was really not much money prepared.

"Not yet, I just received the news that Lin from Zilanyuan sent one million taels of silver to the second house. I felt a little confused." Mu Tinglan said, "Does my uncle know this grandfather's concubine?"

When they heard the Lin family, Dingyuan Hou and Chang family really didn't remember who they were, but after Mu Tinglan reminded them, they also remembered such a character.

"I remember that he seemed to be sent to the general's room by the old lady of the General's Mansion." Chang said carefully. After all, he was a junior. Even if he was talking about the elders behind his back, Chang felt that it was not suitable. "But that person seemed to have not appeared for a long time." In fact, she thought Lin had died long ago.

However, Dingyuan Hou did not have much taboos. After a while of silence, "That's right, but although I haven't seen this Lin family much, I remember my mother said before that the Lin family is very scheming and will tolerate it. My mother was worried that Zi Yan and the others would be harmed by this Lin family after the eldest princess passed away." Dingyuan Hou said, "But later the Lin family disappeared."

"Ting Lan just said that the man gave him one million taels to the second house? This is strange. Where did she get so much money?" said Chang.

"That's why I thought about asking my brother if Lin has any money-making shop outside." One million taels, but even the powerful and wealthy people were a little moved when they saw it.

"Your brother may not know this." Dingyuan Hou shook his head and said, "Nannan might as well go and ask the general."

I’m afraid my grandfather may not be very clear, right? My grandfather didn’t care much about these two concubines, so he wouldn’t even notice their shops outside.

"I understand. Let me tell my grandfather about this," Mu Tinglan said.

"Good boy, don't bother with these things. With your grandfather here," said Chang. "When you come to the Marquis' Mansion, just have fun. Don't think about those things."

Mu Tinglan smiled slightly, "I know my aunt."

"One of your aunt and I came over to see if you are used to living in the Marquis' Mansion. In addition, I want to tell you that the emperor should announce that you will enter the palace in the past two days."

The emperor announced her to enter the palace?

"Why?" Mu Tinglan was very surprised.

"This is what the general asked his uncle to tell you, so that you can be prepared." Dingyuan Hou said, "It should be something to do with King Xiaoyao."

What is related to Mr. Qiao? "The adoptive father has been back for a long time, so why didn't he do anything?" He didn't hear of any conflict between Wuzhen Kingdom and Nan Yong's borders. What's more, Mr. Qiao should be dealing with those who were fighting against him at this time?

Fan Changxi had also contacted her for this incident before.

Dingyuan Hou shook his head, "What can King Xiaoyao do? Now King Xiaoyao is struggling with Wu Zhen Kingdom. I guess it must be related to the emperor's birthday party. Wu Zhen Kingdom will also send envoys here at that time."

If Dingyuan Hou said that the empress in the palace wanted her to come to the palace to dress up, she would believe it, but Mu Tinglan directly denied this reason. The emperor knew that his relationship with Master Qiao was correct, but he would not specifically announce her to enter the palace because of the envoy's affairs. I am afraid that there are other things.

"Uncle, nothing happened in the palace recently, right?" Mu Tinglan thought for a while and asked. Anyway, there was no news about the accident in the palace.

Dingyuan Hou was stunned for a moment, "Nothing is this."

This is how Mu Tinglan pondered for a while before saying, "I understand. I just entered the palace anyway, and it's not that I haven't been there." The emperor is also very nice to him, so it shouldn't matter.

"The General also told you not to worry about anything, but I asked the reason, but the General didn't say it." It seemed like you didn't have to care at all.

"If it wasn't for something big, my grandfather wouldn't have said anything." Mu Tinglan said.

Seeing this, Dingyuan Hou smiled, but he still had a lot of doubts in his heart. He always felt that Mu Tinglan, General Mu, and Mu Lingheng hid a lot of things from them.

After leaving Mu Tinglan, Dingyuan Hou asked Chang to go back first, and he went to Mrs. Su's side and told him about his doubts and what happened today. In fact, besides Mu Tinglan and the others, he also felt that the emperor should know something.

Mrs. Su is old, but her thinking is not old at all, and she is very clear. She has no doubts, but she doesn't want to ask anything about her granddaughter. As for the general's mansion, she also wants to see the situation before talking about it. However, now that her son mentioned this matter again, she had to think more.

"Mrs. Lin was already very scheming. At the beginning, Mrs. Mu thought she could control Lin, but when I looked, it seemed like she was being led by the nose." Mrs. Su said, "Fortunately, Mrs. Mu likes Azhi as well. With Azhi's identity, so she was not much biased towards Lin. Otherwise, Mu Xinde's backyard would have caught fire long ago."

Azhi is General Mu's wife, Dongfang Suzhi, also known as Emperor Jiaxuan's aunt.

"Mom, even if Lin is scheming, she is just a girl. How can she take out so much money?" said Dingyuan Hou, "Lin, I'm afraid it's not as simple as we know."

Mrs. Su snorted, "Of course it won't be that simple. But Mu Xinde is going to worry about these things. Let's just take care of Nannan and Aheng." Mrs. Su said, "Old Albatross, is there no news yet?"

Dingyuan Hou shook his head, "No matter what, Ah Heng has regained his strength now, which is also a good thing."

He sighed, "Yes, it's a good thing, but who knows if the person behind him will still attack Ah Heng or Nannan." said Mrs. Su.

"Mom, Nannan and Aheng will be fine." Dingyuanhou said, "There are people following them."

"I'm just a little uneasy." said Mrs. Su. "Although Nannan acts similar to an ordinary girl's house, I know that her mind is not less than her mother. On the contrary, she has a lot more. She is still young, so she keeps thinking about how her body can withstand it. Forget it, let's take care of the girl these days, and prepare more things when she goes back."

Dingyuan Hou looked at his mother and replied, "But the matter of the emperor summoning Nannan."

"You don't have to think too much. The emperor will never do anything to Nannan no matter what. Azhi and the emperor are already close and have helped the emperor a lot. Mu Xinde and Zi Yan also paid a lot for the emperor. They have saved the emperor's life. The emperor will not forget these emperors." If he could, it would not be Emperor Jiaxuan. She would not have saved him at the beginning. She thought that the eyes of people would not be wrong. The emperor was suspicious, but he was also flesh and blood.

Dingyuan Hou felt aroused in his heart, and he felt that he was thinking too much. With so many factors together, he really didn't have to worry about his nephew and niece.

However, the more this is, it is actually more difficult to do as the elder and lady of the general's mansion.

Although the Marquis of Dingyuan was a few days later, the next day, Eunuch Yu came to the Marquis of Dingyuan with the emperor's will, and Xuan Mu Tinglan entered the palace.

And this day is also the deadline for the three-day period set by General Mu.

When Mu Tinglan followed Eunuch Yu into the palace, the Zheng family also sent someone to get the money for the Zheng family, which was a total of 3 million taels. It is said that they were raised by selling many shops and pawning many treasures. However, the specific situation is different.

It was also on this day that Gu Heng also returned to Ancheng. When he heard Mu Tinglan enter the palace, Gu Heng just moved his heart and was not worried too much. He just had to think about it after receiving the news that Princess Xinyang had entered the palace and had contact with Princess Hui.

Concubine Hui, Concubine Hui is usually a low-key person. However, Concubine Yu’s affairs were still visible to Concubine Hui. Although it was later involved in Concubine De, Gu Heng did not ignore Concubine Hui. However, the case was settled later, and he no longer asked for trouble.

But in fact, the one who really has a conflict with Concubine Yu is Concubine Hui.

Without mentioning the previous incident, it is said that now, the Princess Xinyang contacted Concubine Hui a few days ago. It is not necessarily that Concubine Hui was exerting force in the middle when Mu Tinglan entered the palace, but he always felt that there should be a necessary connection between them.

"I said to Lord Gu, what are you thinking?" Lord Liu looked at Gu Heng and said angrily.

"Nothing, I'm just curious why the emperor suddenly entered the palace," Gu Heng said.

"What's the matter? The emperor misses Princess Anping's niece. Can't he see?" said Lord Liu, and then he paused again and said thief, "But I think the emperor is most likely to choose a husband for Princess Anping."

Choose a husband?

For some reason, Gu Heng felt a little uncomfortable when he heard this. He frowned slightly, suppressed the discomfort in his heart, and then looked at Lord Liu, "Why would Master say this?"

"Didn't the emperor and the queen think about choosing a concubine for the second prince and the others before? But because of various reasons, they have been put on the agenda again in the past two days. The second prince and the third prince seem to have some interest in Princess Anping. The most important thing is, do you know what is the most popular in Ancheng now?"

"What?"

"Criminal of Xinyang Prince, Prince Chu suddenly woke up and wanted to win back Princess Anping again." Master Liu picked up the tea on the table and took a sip of moistening his throat, saying, "Although Prince Chu did nothing, the rumors were not the same. As he said, it became true. And didn't the princess have any intention of Prince Chu before? Maybe he was really successful by Prince Chu."

It was said that he succeeded because Lord Liu didn't believe that Prince Chu suddenly woke up and laughed at him. Don't he understand someone like Chu Ran? If Princess Anping had always grown up in the general's mansion, maybe Chu Ran might have the possibility of suddenly awakening. But the reality is the opposite. Chu Ran didn't care much about Princess Anping at the beginning, just regarded it as an irrelevant person, so Princess Anping had no relationship with him at all.

But when Princess Anping had a relationship with him, his first reaction was naturally disgusting and rejecting. Perhaps if it weren't for King Xinyang at that time, Chu Ran would have come forward to deny the marriage as soon as possible. Later, Princess Anping was wronged. Although Chu Ran said it nicely, everyone could see his eagerness.

So if you want to say that Prince Chu suddenly realized that smart people don’t believe it, and he believes that there is any conspiracy in it.

Gu Heng felt even more uncomfortable, but he didn't show any signs of it. "My lord is wrong. Princess Anping has never liked Prince Chu."

"How do you know?" Lord Liu asked curiously, "If the princess doesn't like Prince Chu, how could he have been at the birthday banquet before?" He would be so excited that he vomited blood.

"Sir, you have to know who raised Princess Anping," Gu Heng said.

Lord Liu's eyes flashed, and then he said ignorantly, "Isn't it just a beggar?"

Gu Heng wanted to roll his eyes, but the etiquette and upbringing he had learned still made him unable to do such impolite and inelegant actions. He just secretly despised Lord Liu in his heart for pretending to be stupid, "No matter how Xiaoyao King is, he is always the King of Xiaoyao. Can Princess Anping, who has been with him for more than ten years, be that kind of weak and stupid person?" He had originally suspected that Princess Anping said at the flower viewing banquet that the marriage with the Xinyang Palace was intentional, and later he was even more sure of it after contacting Princess Anping.

"Princess Anping is a little girl." Lord Liu said hummingly. As a little girl, she is innocent and can't help but do something stupid if she first falls in love. This is common.

Haha, Princess Anping is right that she is a little girl, but she is not ordinary at all.

"Does that think that the emperor, Princess Xuan Anping, enters the palace, is really for Princess Anping's lifelong event?" Gu Heng asked.

Lord Liu paused and said, "Who knows, there must be a reason, but the emperor had said about the affairs of Wuzhen Kingdom before, which may be because of the envoys of Wuzhen Kingdom. After all, Princess Anping is still the adopted daughter of King Xiaoyao, so you can also entertain the envoys of Wuzhen Kingdom at that time."

Gu Heng shook his head, this reason was not very reliable.
