Chapter 1409 Being Stealed of Luck by the Reborn Stepsister 169 The Emperor's Thick Skin 1
The Xiao family was later sealed off as a duke of the state, but in fact, there were only two mothers and sons left in the Xiao family, and Mrs. Xiao's savings had been used to support the families of the dead soldiers. Naturally, she had no family property, and usually relied on the salary of the duke's mansion for expenses. However, Mrs. Xiao was seriously injured in the battlefield, and her body wasted a lot. She needed to take some supplements to maintain her body. Most of the government's salary was used to take medicine, so the country's government naturally became more and more embarrassed.

Later, when Xiao Zhengshu grew up, he did not learn martial arts like his elder brothers. He followed the route of civil servants, and he was raised a little frail. He also married a girl from a Qingliu family, so he didn't have much dowry.

Even if his wife can take care of the family's property, it's hard for a smart woman to live without rice. Without the capital, she can't increase the family's property. With that little salary, she has to buy medicine for Mrs. Xiao, which is naturally financially difficult.

The emperor knew that the government of Zhenguo was difficult, but he did not expect that it would be so difficult that the solution would depend on selling the house!How could he not be ashamed to let Mrs. Xiao, who expanded his territory for him, live in poverty?

Of course, the emperor never thought that the person who bought their house was actually the daughter of the lady of the Duke's Mansion.

After that, Xiao Zhengshu also explained the reason why the horse was a wild horse that Wu Yun caught on the grassland on the other side of the Yunwu Mountains.

"My niece, Xiao Yun, is a disciple of Yaowanggu. She received a lot of silver for saving lives. After meeting her mother, she found that her life was frugal, even poor, and most of the utensils in the old house in Sanjiang were dilapidated. , I was not satisfied with it for a while, so I bought a lot of clothes and jewelry for my mother, and replaced all the furnishings and bedding utensils in Sanjiang's old house with new ones. When my mother returned to Beijing, she was reluctant to part with the newly replaced things , then packed them all and brought them back for use in the capital mansion.

It's just that when my mother went there, she only brought a carriage, so where could those things fit in?My mother originally planned to rent a carriage from a carriage and horse dealer, but she couldn't do it for a while because of her lack of money.

My elder sister’s child Wu Yun didn’t say much when he found out about it, but the next day he brought more than 30 horses from the next door. My mother also asked my niece where the horses came from, and my niece replied that she had gone to the Yunwu Mountains On the prairie behind, choose the best wild horses to catch.Because the niece had just recognized her, and my mother didn't bother to ask too clearly, so she just brought the horse back. "

The rumors of "Ten Chariots of Treasure" and "Three Hundred Thousand-Lithed Horses" were finally clarified. However, Xiao Guogong also finally figured it out, the emperor took a fancy to his horses.

He rolled his eyes and said, "If your majesty does not think wild horses are difficult to tame, I will definitely persuade my niece Xiao Yun to dedicate those horses to your majesty."

The emperor smiled and was very satisfied with Xiao Guogong's sense of taste, but said: "How can I win Aiqing's heart? But Xiao Aiqing's kindness is hard to refuse, and I can't refuse. But I can't take them all. I only need 24 horses. Can."

36 horses, he actually asked for 24 horses!
Moreover, Xiao Guogong clearly said that the wild horse was caught by his niece, but he said that it was Xiao Guogong's favorite, which clearly regarded the horse as Xiao Guogong's, not Xiao Yun's.

After all, he doesn't want things from Xiao Yun, but he dare not refuse to give them to Duke Xiao.

Xiao Guogong secretly sighed in his heart. He never knew that the emperor was so thick-skinned, so he could only bite the bullet and agree: "I will offer 24 wild horses tomorrow. However, the wild horses are untamed, and the Holy Majesty can't—"
