Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down

Chapter 725: Many Cheats 46
But... ever since the second grandma insisted on having a housekeeper, the annual money was soon spent due to the increase in the number of housekeepers, and there was no money saved. The main reason was that there were more people trying to make money, and everyone felt that it would be a waste not to make money, as other families would take it away. So they tried their best to make money and falsely invoiced expenses. It would be strange if the palace could save money like this.

It is estimated that Prince An's wife is now just hoping that Prince An will die soon, so that all those illegitimate sons can be divided out and the management power of Prince An's Mansion can return to her hands again. Then she can save money in peace, unlike now, when she dares not save money and spends all her money, which makes her heartbroken.

Although the Second Mistress also bore a grudge against Linlang, she still did not let Concubine Cao go to Prince An and whisper in his ear, asking Prince An to scold Princess An, Linlang, or Prince An's Crown Prince's Consort for this small matter. The main reason was that what Prince An's Crown Prince's Consort said was right. Linlang was her deputy and received a salary. As long as Prince An's Crown Prince's Consort said that she was doing something, how could others prove that she was not doing anything?
Besides, other people have jobs and can make money, but Princess Anjiang has no job and does not make money. What's wrong with just giving her a little money? After all, she is one of the mistresses of this palace.

So the matter just ended there.

However, Concubine Cao heard about this. Seeing that her daughter-in-law was at a disadvantage, she felt that their second branch had been slapped in the face, so she ran to Prince An and made some gossips - of course she did not say that Linlang was not worthy of being Prince An's deputy to the Crown Prince's Consort. She also knew that it would be unreasonable to say this to Prince An, so she talked about Linlang's jealousy and the like.

They fabricated some stories about how Linlang had bewitched Prince Anjiang in the past, and how Prince Anjiang had only had Linlang from the past until now, and even the concubine arranged by Princess An was not used. In this way, Prince Anjiang only had Linlang, and it would be difficult for him to have children in the future.

It is said that royal family members like them should have more concubines and have more children.

Prince An really took these words to heart, and immediately followed Concubine Cao's advice, preparing to send two maids to Prince Anjiang so that he could have more children.

Concubine Cao immediately said that there was a girl of marriageable age in her family, so it would be better to let her go and serve Prince Anjiang. This would not only help Prince Anjiang have children, but also be her own child. If she became favored in the future, with her as a link, the families of her two sons and Prince Anjiang would become closer, which would be a good thing as well.

Yes, Concubine Cao came to tell Prince An all this, on the one hand she wanted to win over Linlang, on the other hand she also wanted to promote the girl from her family.

Before, she had also wanted to promote her to the Prince of An. After all, the Prince of An would be a prince in the future. If the Prince of An was willing to take her niece from her natal family as a concubine, and then her niece from her natal family was as favored as her, then even if the Prince of An passed away in the future, she would not have to worry about living in a separate house from her son and having a hard life, because the Prince of An would definitely help her for the sake of her niece from her natal family.

In fact, members of the royal family had titles and salaries, so even if they moved out, their lives would not be difficult, but they would definitely be much worse than living in the prince's mansion. Concubine Cao, who had been used to a good life in the prince's mansion, naturally worried that her life would be difficult in the future.

After all, she was only a concubine in Prince An's mansion, but because she was supported by Prince An, her life was no worse than those of the main wives. When she left in the future, if her son could be promoted to a prince, then life would be okay. But if he was just a general guarding the country, with only a little annual salary, the life would definitely be very different from that in the prince's mansion. She would definitely not be able to accept it. After all, it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.

If Prince An favors his niece from his natal family, he might even let her family live in the Prince's Palace. Then she can continue to live her current life. How wonderful that would be.

Unfortunately, neither the Prince of An nor the Princess of An wanted her niece. Even if she wanted Prince An to force her to marry him, it ended up in nothing because the Prince of An simply told her that if he was not afraid of her niece being a widow, then just give her to him.

Now that she has said that, what else can she do? She can only let it go.

In fact, she didn't think about it. Since the death of the previous emperor, Prince An has only been good to her and her son. Prince An's son grew up in such an environment and hated them to death. Now that Prince An has grown up, she is trying to give him her niece from her mother's family so that he can get more wealth and glory. What is she thinking? It's good enough that he doesn't hate her to death and take revenge on her. How can she expect him to be good to her and her son in the future? Of course, she is not stupid and didn't think of this. She just wanted to give it a try.

It is the same now. She knows that trying to get someone to serve Prince Anjiang may not succeed, but she still wants to give it a try.

After all, if you don’t try, you will definitely not succeed, but if you try and succeed, wouldn’t that be great?
Although the Prince of Anjiang is only a prince, and his status is much lower than that of the Crown Prince of An, he is still better than her son who will be the general guarding the country in the future. Besides, he can also annoy Shen Linlang, so she can try her best.

Of course, the main reason was that a girl from my aunt's family came to me and said that she fell in love with Prince Anjiang at first sight when she came to Prince An's mansion to attend a banquet last time, and wanted to ask my aunt to help bring them together.

It just so happened that this girl was the one she liked the most, so of course she would help her.

This is also the reason why she is looking for Prince An to handle this matter.

It can be said that she wanted to insert someone into the relationship with Prince Anjiang for several reasons. First, she wanted to annoy Linlang. Second, she wanted to help her two sons in the future. Third, she wanted to help her favorite niece from her natal family to find a good future.

Prince An naturally obeyed Concubine Cao's request. Of course, the main reason was that he also felt that Concubine Cao was right. How could a prince of a county have only one woman? Of course, it was also important to have more children.

So Prince An summoned Prince Anjiang and mentioned the matter to him.

"You don't have to worry about the color. The girl from the Cao family will definitely look like Concubine Cao, and she won't be any worse." Prince An is a man and he understands men. He knows that men like young and beautiful women the most, so he said this at this time.

If Concubine Cao hadn't been young and beautiful, he wouldn't have liked her.

Unfortunately...his experience cannot be applied to everyone.

Back then, he had tried to arrange a match for his eldest son with a girl from the Cao family, but it didn't work out. Now, he tried to arrange a match for his youngest son, but it didn't work out either, because after hearing what he said, Prince Anjiang shook his head and said, "My son isn't that interested in women, so don't arrange for a girl to come over. It's a waste of her time."

Prince An had naturally heard about the fact that the legitimate youngest son didn't like women, but in his opinion, how could a man not like beauty? It was as ridiculous as someone saying that he didn't like money. Prince An thought that Prince Anjiang didn't like beauty because he usually saw ordinary women, so he thought women were just like that. When he saw a truly stunning woman, he would definitely be tempted. So Prince An said, "See her first, and when you see her and find that she is stunning, maybe you will be tempted."
