After the evil concubine was reborn, she only wanted to abuse the scumbag

Xiao Muheng looked gloomy, and asked Liu Anyao, "What did father-in-law say?"

As soon as Liu Xiang was mentioned, Liu Anyao's spirit froze slightly.

"what happened?"

"Once something happened to you, I went back to Liu's residence overnight, and wanted father to intercede for you, but father said that you should take good care of your wounds, make money with peace of mind, and wait for the opportunity." Liu Anyao frowned.

Their father is their only hope now, if even him dies, Xiao Muheng really has no chance of turning around.

The more Liu Anyao thought about it, the more angry she became, and she didn't sleep well all night.

She thought that Xiao Muheng must be even more panicked when he heard what his father said.

But when Liu Anyao looked at Xiao Muheng, he saw his expression was cold, not flustered at all as she thought, but lost in thought.

"What do you think?"

Xiao Muheng: "I know what Xiangye means."

Liu Anyao was stunned for a moment: "What does my father mean?"

How could she not know.

Xiao Muheng glanced at Liu Anyao, thought for a while, and felt that the husband and wife were one. Since Master Xiang hadn't completely given up on him, Liu Anyao was a bridge between him and Xiang Liu, and she should know what to do in the future.

"The emperor punished me not to be an official in the court, but I had no chance during his reign. If the second prince becomes emperor, it will be time for me to return to officialdom, so my father-in-law asked me to wait for the opportunity. The second prince wants to fight for the crown prince. , besides connections and power, the most indispensable thing is money."

When Liu Anyao heard that the third prince ascended the throne, Xiao Muheng was able to return to the officialdom, her eyes could not help but brighten up, and then she said worriedly: "But the emperor fined 1000 million taels of silver, although it is not to the point of going bankrupt and sleeping on the streets, but the Xiao family's vitality is also seriously damaged. .”

No longer rich as before.

Xiao Muheng's heart was also bleeding, but if he didn't obey the emperor's will, he could only wait for his head to be lost.

Those who harmed him simply put him in a dead end, either losing his life or cutting out his heart.

Power, money, all gone now.

"If the money is gone, you can earn more." Xiao Muheng almost vomited blood when he said this.

This is easy to say, only he knows how difficult it is to do.

But now he can only count on Yinzi to turn him around.

If he can help the second prince become emperor, he will be a great hero, but if he can't even provide money, I believe he will be reduced to useless soon.

How could Xiao Muheng live a mediocre life?

Liu Anyao nodded her head in an incomprehensible way, her irritable mood improved a little bit.

She still has hope of turning over.

"Then Mrs., you should take good care of your wounds first."

Enduring the pain coming from behind, Xiao Muheng said: "The emperor ordered me to give out 1000 million taels within three days. You should work harder today. Check the account books to see how much cash you can get together."

Liu Anyao nodded with an ugly face: "What about the ones that are not enough?"

"Call the shopkeepers of each shop, and I will discuss with them, first withdraw the liquid money in the shop, and then sell a few shops."

Don't tell him who is trying to harm him, he will definitely take people's skin and cramps to relieve the hatred in his heart.

The majestic palace is rolling up and down, and the golden glazed tiles are shining brightly in the sun.

In the morning, the princes first went to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to pay their respects to the Empress Dowager, and then had lunch with their respective mothers and concubines, and the palace banquet was held in the evening.

The second prince brought the second concubine and two side concubines, the third prince brought the main concubine and Chen Rujin, the fifth prince brought a side concubine, and the seventh prince and Chu Jinyan were alone.

The sixth princess had just given birth and was still in confinement, so she couldn't enter the palace, and the son-in-law was waiting for the palace banquet at night.

After sitting in the Compassion Palace for a while, everyone dispersed.

Because the birth mother passed away early and there was no concubine to take care of him, the Seventh Prince went to Jingren Palace after leaving the Palace of Compassion and Ning. He was about to invite Chu Jin to accompany him for a banquet, but when he left the Palace of Compassion and Peace, he was served at the Palace of Qianqing The little eunuch was called away.

Needless to say, Emperor Cheng De must have ordered someone to come to the Compassionate Ning Palace to wait.

Seeing Chu Jinyan's disappearing figure, Chu Yici pursed his lips jealously, and said sourly: "Father still really loves the eighth younger brother, and we can see each other at night, but he even called him away alone."

The only response to him was the whistling cold wind.

Chu Yici gritted his teeth and glared at his eunuch: "Are you dead?"

The corner of the eunuch's mouth twitched slightly, and said: "What Your Highness said is absolutely true."

Chu Yici: "..."

Such a perfunctory eunuch, what should I do if I really want to replace him?
He took a few deep breaths, and went towards Jingren Palace with a dark face, the little eunuch quickly followed.

In Qianqing Palace, Emperor Chengde was standing in front of the desk with a scroll of paintings spread on the table, and he was watching with a smile on his face.

"I will see my father." Chu Jinyan stood in the hall, saluted respectfully, and said.

Qingjun's eyebrows and eyes are as cold as the cold wind outside the palace.

Emperor Chengde raised him to look at him, and waved to him: "Come, take a look at this picture of rivers and mountains from the previous dynasty, tsk tsk, it's the real thing."

The earth dragon is burning in the hall, which is as warm as spring.

Chu Jinyan untied the fox fur on his body, and a court lady immediately stepped forward to take it, and then he stepped forward.

"Where did it come from?"

"That old fox from Liu Sheng sent it."

Chu Jinyan raised his eyebrows slightly: "Plead for his son-in-law?"

"That's not to say." Emperor Cheng De shook his head: "But sending someone to send this painting to the palace to show it well, that's almost what it means."

Chu Jinyan narrowed his eyes, and a faint light flashed in his eyes: "So for the sake of a painting, you plan to forgive Xiao Muheng lightly?"

Emperor Cheng De sneered: "I have a good word, how can I go back on my word? I don't want to lose face. Anyway, he didn't say it, so I don't see it. I want to see if he dares to replace it in front of me. That turtle begs for mercy."

So in the end it's just for face?

"Are you happy to get 1000 million taels?" Chu Jinyan asked suddenly.

"Cough cough..." Emperor Chengde choked, raised his head and glared at his son resentfully: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Chu Jinyan glanced at Emperor Chengde indifferently, and then saluted without sincerity: "I apologize to Emperor Father."

Emperor Chengde was dumbfounded: "...you, what did you do?"

"The fire in the Guozijian, my servant asked Sheng Xian to let it go."

Emperor Cheng De's mind went blank for a moment, and he stared at Chu Jinyan in a daze.

What did he just hear.

The fire was set by his precious son.

Emperor Cheng De was unable to touch his forehead, and his face was full of lovelessness.

Late Emperor, don't you think that my life is too comfortable, that's why you sent such a little bastard to torture me physically and mentally?
Emperor Chengde pointed at Chu Jinyan with shaking fingers, and was so angry that he could hardly speak.

"You... you, you, you, you are crazy. You dared to set fire to the Imperial College for Xiao Muheng. Are you not afraid of unmanageable consequences?"

"No, I picked the most central school, and if it is destroyed, it can be rebuilt. It not only slapped Liu Xiang in the face, but also made Liu Xiang's son-in-law unable to set foot in the court anymore, and let Xiao Muheng empty the Xiao family's wealth to pay for it. The treasury has also increased the income of the father's private treasury, not to mention the previous points, and finally the money went into his own pocket, the father is not happy?"

He was not acting recklessly, nor was he reckless.
