Jiang Jintao, the head of the Criminal Department, took off his coat, and a maid immediately came forward to take it and hang it on the screen at the door.
"Why……"
Zou didn't know how many times she sighed.
Jiang Jintao was so frightened that his hands shook and he turned to look at his wife.
"Why……"
No...impossible, right?
Jiang Jintao tentatively took out the money bag from his arms: "How did Madam know that my husband hid some private money this time? Well...it's all here, and there really isn't a penny left."
"Why……"
Zou changed his hand to support his chin, still sighing.
Jiang Jintao looked mournful. This time it was his turn to sigh. He dug into his sleeves again and took out a small purse: "Madam, you are getting smarter and smarter now. I can't hide anything from you. I'm not saying that. I am the head of the Criminal Department, and you only give me 30 coins a month, which is really not enough. Today, our Minister Ma even invited me to have a drink. I always feel bad about eating from others, and he is much younger than me!"
This time there is really no point left.
It's really strange. Does the Ministry of Punishment have Madam's spies?
How did she know that their Criminal Department had given out bonuses this time?
Not counting the monthly noon money given to her, now she can't even secure additional rewards.
Who is worse than him?
At the end of every month, I have to borrow money from my son to spend.
Zou didn't react at first, but Jiang Jintao whispered a song in her ear, and it was hard for her not to hear it.
She calmly stuffed the money bag into her belt, put one hand on her hip, and grabbed his ear: "Okay, you! You are getting more and more courageous, and you dare to hide your private money. You are going to take the money." Are you going to go shopping on a flower boat with your friends?"
"Ah, no, no, no..."
Jiang Jintao quickly begged for mercy: "This is my husband's first time hiding. I have no experience. Really, madam, I made a mistake..."
Mrs. Zou knew that her man was a great person, and she would not be angry with him if she occasionally hid some private money. However, she had to show her attitude to avoid such things happening in the future.
She snorted coldly and threw away Jiang Jintao's red ears: "I sigh not only because of you, but also Shu'er. This child is possessed by some kind of demon. He insists on going to the palace to be a queen. At home, I can't help but cry, make trouble, and hang myself."
"hiss--"
Jiang Jintao rubbed his ears: "She just has too much vanity. When she came out of the old house, everyone thought she was a helper prepared by our Jiang family for the Queen of Heaven. Now she is asked to get married. She will definitely not be able to accept it for a while. of."
"You mean to support her?"
Zou's voice became sharp: "Back then, Mrs. Zhou was the wife of the child's second uncle. Have you forgotten how Shu followed Sister Tong and Sister Lin to bully the Queen of Heaven when she was a child? People don't bother to care about this now because We are not hanging out under her nose. If you let her see Shu'er every day, see if she will take revenge!"
She doesn't even have to take action now. As long as she lets out a word, Shu'er won't be able to survive in the palace.
"I definitely can't watch her jump into the fire pit!"
Jiang Jintao smiled and said: "Do you know, Bachelor Xie? He has a son named Xie Chenghui. He is already the chief of the painting academy at a young age. He is highly regarded by the emperor. He comes from a noble family. I have invited a matchmaker to marry the Xie family's wife. Let’s get on the line and let the two children meet one day to finalize the marriage.”
"real?"
Mr. Zou knows Xie Chenghui, the legitimate son of the Xie family!
That is the son-in-law who rides a dragon in the hearts of countless mothers-in-law in the capital!
If Shu'er can marry into the Xie family, she will only enjoy endless blessings in the future.
The dark clouds dispersed, and the sun finally revealed its golden light from the clouds.
The heavy snow of the past few days has dispersed, and a new round of cold air has entered the capital. Xiaotuanzi wrapped himself tightly, and did not forget to tell the palace servants around him: "My Highness asked you to send all the quilts to Fengxian Palace." Has it passed?"
"I sent everything back to His Highness the Prince. According to your instructions, I also sent two carts of silver charcoal. The third prince will definitely not catch the cold."
The little dumpling, who is over three years old, is soft and waxy, but within this softness, he already has a bit of the aura of a superior: "Please show it to your highness. They are not allowed to deduct my third brother's things. I found a Just give it to your Highness, do you understand me?"
Last year, the third brother refused to use the things his mother sent him, and he froze himself into a high fever. The third brother was so distressed that he ran to Fengxian Hall to beg the third brother to take care of his body, but was turned away.
Xiaotuanzi has no memory of his third brother, but Xi Ge said that when he was young, the two royal brothers liked him very much and played with him...
Even if it is to save Brother Xi from worrying every winter, Xiaotuanzi must let Third Brother take care of himself.
"Tell the third prince that if he behaves like last year in the winter and spring this year, His Highness will kill the palace servants who served him so many times. Who made them so useless? They can't even take care of a child. "
The third brother is only nine or ten years old this year. The queen mother said that they were all children until they were eighteen.
Fengxian Hall——
"Tuk tuk tuk..."
The rhythmic sound of wooden fish came from the small Buddhist hall in the side hall, and the curls of cigarettes mixed with the strong fragrance of sandalwood slowly rose into the sky. The little boy was wearing thin clothes and had a slim figure. He knelt in front of several tablets and was pious. of chanting.
"Third Prince..."
There was a knock on the door outside the house: "His Royal Highness sent someone to bring you clothes and quilts to keep out the cold. I have put them in your room for you."
"I don't want to wear it. You can thank the prince's brother for my kindness, but... I am a guilty person. I came to the Xian Palace to atone for my sins. If it is fine clothes and fine food, it goes against my original intention."
The eunuch outside the door was confused: "But His Highness the Prince's people have said that if you are still infected with the cold like last year, all the servants in Fengxian Palace will be chopped off."
He came to atone for sins, not to cause evil.
The third prince chuckled: "Xiao Tuanzi, you really have the style of Empress Zhen."
One sentence can catch his weak point.
"Okay, you put the things in my room and I will wear them."
Although he knew that the prince's brother could not do such a cruel thing, he had already said it, and he did not want the prince's brother to think that the third brother was no longer close to him.
According to Jiang Xinyue’s experience, it’s not cold when it snows, but it’s the coldest when it melts.
At this time, the envoys of the Kingdom of Jin proposed that it was time to return to the Kingdom of Jin.
The emperor paid a farewell visit to the Queen of Jin and held a banquet in the palace.
Only this time the Queen of Heaven was absent due to illness.
Everyone also wanted to go into the palace and ask, what happened to the Queen of Heaven?
Some people say that she did many evil things and harmed too many concubines. On a dark and windy night, she ran into evil spirits, encountered unclean things, and got entangled.
There are shrill screams coming from Kunning Palace every night, and the people in the palace remain silent and don't say a word about it. There must be something wrong.
