Ten Miles of Red Makeup: The Legend of Ming Yu

Chapter 299 Rewards
Sun Guifei's expression changed.

Ming concubine almost couldn't hold back her laughter, and saw Chu Mochen looking at the emperor and saying, "These things are good, but I keep them to no avail. The pawnshop dare not accept them, and I can't force them to accept them..."

The emperor was confused, "Then why do you come to me for an appraisal?"

There was a harmless smile on Chu Mochen's face, "These things are sold for military pay, and I don't get a cent. I worked so hard to send them to the palace. I hope that you can buy them, the emperor, so that you can become a successor in the future." When someone in the Duke’s Mansion makes meritorious service, you reward him with these things, and it saves the emperor from having to spend so much effort on how to reward him as a Duke.”

The abacus was crackling, and the emperor's face seemed to have been rubbed several times by the beads of the abacus, but he actually got his mind on him? !

It's not easy to force those pawnshops, but can you force him to be the emperor?
But I have to say that this method is good, I am afraid that Cheng Guogong will be bedridden with anger if he finds out.

The emperor's dragon face was angry, but there was a smile in his eyes, the empress dowager was so angry that she couldn't sit in her chair, and Concubine Sun Guifei's face turned purple.

They were fooled!
The Empress Dowager and Concubine Sun Guifei were already full of anger, and some people acted obediently when they got a bargain, and said, "I didn't say in advance that I would let the emperor buy it, and the valuations of the two father-in-laws are similar. I believe that these things are worth it." This price."

The queen mother's people estimate the price, can the queen mother say that it is not worth it?

The emperor said, "Is there anyone who forces people to buy things?"

To others, it is coercion, but to the emperor, it is giving pies. Is there any reason not to continue?
Knowing that the emperor would agree, but in front of the empress dowager and Concubine Sun, I had to give the emperor face, begging him, Chu Mochen said, "I haven't asked the emperor for a long time, and the emperor is still sitting in a wheelchair. ..."

The emperor waved his hand and said, "Success, success, success, I promise you."

After finishing speaking, the emperor ordered Mr. Deshun to be fair, "Let the household department pay the money, and register these things, and enter the account of the household department."

Concubine Sun Guifei couldn't hold back, and said, "Your Majesty, aren't you conniving the son of Prince Zhennan to mess around?"

Chu Mochen said with a displeased face, "Indulgence? Did I get any benefit? In order to cure my leg, the palace spent more than that. Finding a quack doctor and treating the leg from scratch may not be enough for the consultation fee. I can return the things to Duke Cheng's mansion, can Concubine Sun persuade Duke Cheng to pay me for my consultation?"

The Zhennan Prince's Mansion spent 20 taels of silver to make a happy event. Everyone knows that Jianghu doctor's medicine is notoriously expensive. No one knows how much Chu Mochen spent on treating his legs, but the only thing that is certain is that he is not short of money. Smashing and looting Cheng Guogong's mansion is nothing more than a leg ache, and taking Cheng Guogong's mansion to calm down, that's all.

The one who benefited was the emperor. Concubine Sun Gui didn't stand on the emperor's side, but helped Cheng Guogong's mansion. This is an elbow turned outward.

Fearing that the emperor would be unhappy, Concubine Sun Guifei didn't dare to say anything, but her silver teeth were almost broken, and no one could be happy after being used.

After finishing his work, Chu Mochen resigned with concubine Ming without delaying the emperor's review of the memorial.

After leaving the imperial study room, Ming concubine couldn't hold back her laughter. Just now in the imperial study room, the Empress Dowager and Concubine Sun's expressions were like swallowing flies, and her shoulders almost shook and dislocated.

They wanted to trick Chu Mochen into a trick, but Chu Mochen got the better of him, and it was they and the unlucky Duke of Cheng who fell into the trap in the end.

Ming concubine laughed, "Are you so sure that the emperor will be with you?"

There was brilliance in Chu Mochen's eyes, "It's rare for a husband to come to your door and be pampered by the emperor. How could the emperor miss this opportunity?"

What I said, Ming concubine wanted to go back and sue the emperor for being black. Looking at his handsome face like a monster, she wanted to pinch his face to see if his skin was three points thicker than the city wall. He continued, "Those things are of great use to the emperor."

"Apart from rewards, what else can it be used for?" Ming concubine asked puzzled.

"It's true that there is only one purpose for rewarding, but there are many kinds of rewards, such as beating and wooing, as well as alienation..."

Ming concubine is a smart person, and when Chu Mochen mentioned this, she understood that one day the emperor rewarded Cheng Guogong's favorites to Cheng Guogong's political opponents, and that was the time to really watch the excitement.

Here, Mingyu and Chu Mochen returned to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion in a bright mood, while Cheng Guogong's Mansion over there was in chaos.

What happened in the Royal Study Room, Ming Concubine and the others went back to the palace, and then passed to Duke Cheng's mansion. Duke Cheng was so angry that he didn't bring it up, and passed out directly.

Changhui courtyard, inner hall.

The old lady was bowing to the Buddha, kneeling on the futon, fiddled with the beads, and recited scriptures silently.

Incense was burned in front of the table, and the silky Buddha incense made people feel calm.

Outside, the maid Nian Xia walked in quickly, and when she got closer, her pace slowed down again, she didn't dare to disturb her, she just quietly stood aside.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the old lady raised her arm, and Mother Qian quickly helped her up. The old lady asked, "What's wrong?"

Nian Xia hurriedly told the old lady about Duke Cheng's fainting from anger. The old lady's expression was gloomy, and Mama Qian said with emotion, "Duke Cheng is so old and a veteran of two dynasties, yet he was fainted by two juniors." , is really embarrassing."

The old lady's expression was indifferent, and Mother Qian helped her to sit down. She said, "Duke Cheng was stunned by the prince, and the prince and concubine are protecting their shortcomings. It is impossible for them to visit Duke Cheng's mansion. The old duke is still alive. Shi and Cheng Guogong have a good relationship, let the youngest prepare a generous gift to visit."

Mama Qian was going to send a message to the third master, the old lady beckoned her to come over and gave some instructions, Mama Qian nodded as she listened, and complimented, "Ginger is still old and hot, fighting with you, old lady, they are still too young A bit."

This day, the sky is clear.

In the bamboo house in the backyard, Chu Mochen was reading a book when suddenly there was a bang and bang. He frowned slightly and said, "What's that sound?"

Zhao Feng walked into the room and said, "It's the concubine Shizi and the servant girl who are... drilling bamboo."

I have heard of chopping bamboo and digging bamboo shoots, what kind of behavior is this drilling bamboo?
Zhao Feng didn't know either, so he just said, "The concubine digs a small hole in the bamboo, pours the good wine from the master's collection into it, and then seals it well. It looks like the subordinates are storing good wine."

It's just that it's the first time I've seen this way of storing fine wine, so Zhao Feng is not sure.

Chu Mochen put down the book, pushed the wheelchair out, Ming concubine just came out after busy work, Chu Mochen asked, "Are you hiding wine?"

"I'm making wine," Mingyu corrected him.

The ready-made wine, where does she need to make it again, Chu Mochen raised his hand to his forehead, "I'm ignorant again?"

Ming concubine hummed lightly, and Xi'er over there came over and said, "Concubine Shizi, what should I do if I dug a few more holes?"

Ming concubine said, "Go and bring some more jars of good wine."

Xi'er got the order, and ran away in a gust of wind. Chu Mochen looked at Ming concubine, and reminded her, "That's all wine from my collection." Don't do me any harm.

Ming concubine didn't hear his implication, just said, "It's not a treasured wine, I don't use it yet."

Ming concubine got some mud on her hands, and was about to go back to the house to wash, when a voice came from behind her, "Master, concubine, it's not good!"
