Chapter 228
Feeling the worried look of her mother's queen, Princess Changle felt a little guilty. She lowered her head and moaned: "I met the county duke in front of Liangyi Palace yesterday and said a few words to the county duke."
Empress Changsun raised her eyebrows and asked, "What did he say to you?"
Princess Changle blushed and said, "He said, he said, "He said, I will have more children in the future, and I will have ten or eight..."
Before he got married, he was planning to have a baby. Empress Changsun couldn't help laughing when she heard it: "It's God's will to give birth to a baby, and it's up to people to decide? Don't listen to his nonsense, don't worry and be afraid. He really wants to have more children and let him give birth to a concubine!"
Princess Changle shook her head and said, "I'm not worried or afraid. It's the duty of women to have more children to pass on their family line. I just want to have more children. When the family is divided, each child will not be divided into more industries, so I want to embroider more dowry."
The expression on Queen Changsun’s face was very strange. She wanted to laugh and forced herself to hold it back. Your marriage has not yet been married, and before the child was given birth, she just thought about the fact that there were too many children to separate the family in the future?
Are you thinking too far?
Empress Changsun couldn't help laughing: "How much dowry can you embroider with your dowry?"
Princess Changle blushed and sighed: "You can have more, just be more."
Empress Changsun smiled and said, "Boy Su has so many tricks, one secret recipe after another, and can donate hundreds of thousands of ounces at will. It's like a God of Wealth, and you can use your dowry to embroider it?"
Princess Changle pouted and said, "But when the children grow up and split up, I am a mother-in-law, too."
Li Zhi, who had been listening, couldn't help but say, "Sister, I'll give you all my money box!"
Empress Changsun couldn't help but giggle when she heard this. She was also a person with a sharp mind and had long heard Changle's implication.
Li Shimin walked in with a refreshed look. As soon as he came in, he heard Queen Changsun’s giggle and asked curiously: “What makes the Queen so happy?”
Empress Changsun couldn't help laughing and said, "Look at your daughter!"
Li Shimin hurriedly looked at Princess Changle and asked in surprise: "What's wrong? Why are you so haggard?"
After asking, Li Shimin suddenly reacted, "It's not right. If something really happened to Changle, how could the queen laugh?"
Li Shimin said suspiciously: "What the hell is going on?"
"You think you gave too little dowry, you embroidered the dowry all night last night." Empress Changsun said angrily.
Only Empress Changsun dared to say so bluntly in the entire harem.
Li Shimin was stunned when he heard this. He thought the dowry was too little? The dowry he prepared for Changle was more than twice as high as other princesses!
There are regular rules for princesses to get married. Of course, there are differences in their identities, so there are additional rewards.
Like Changle, he is considered the eldest princess, and his status is precious. He should have more dowry than other princesses, but he should not have more than twice as many.
The reason why there are so many is because Li Shimin really loves this daughter.
To be precise, Li Shimin loved all the children born to Empress Changsun very much.
Empress Changsun smiled and said, "Changle said that she would have more children in the future. When the family is separated, each child will not be divided, so she was worried about embroidering dowry at night. Just now, the sacred seldom said that she would add her own box to Changle."
Li Shimin laughed: "How much can I embroider the dowry after staying up late? Changle, just tell your father or your mother, no, don't stay up late, what should I do if my body is broken?"
Princess Changle couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed when she heard this: "Actually, the dowry given by her father is not small."
Empress Changsun smiled and said, "If you want to talk about Changle's dowry, it's not too small, but you want to marry Su Xiaozi. Not to mention that Su Xiaozi has outstanding achievements, but his wealth is scary enough. Thinking of this, Changle's dowry is indeed a little less."
Li Shimin smiled and said, "Changle is my precious daughter. How could I not be willing to give a dowry? Then add some dowry."
Although Li Shimin agreed happily, he was actually quite troubled. It was not that he was reluctant to let it go, but that the censors would make trouble.
It’s not that it will make a fuss, but that it will make a fuss.
Especially Wei Zheng, that's a hard bone!
The dowry prepared for Changle was twice as high, and Li Shimin was already worried that the censors would make trouble. You can imagine that the dowry would be added.
However, what the queen said makes sense. Su Cheng's secret recipes are full of wealth, so it is really not much more than Changle's dowry.
Even though he had a headache, he still felt more sorry for his daughter. He was reluctant to stay up late to embroider the dowry, and he was even more reluctant to let his daughter feel unhappy about the dowry.
Then you will be a censor and Wei Zheng!
I don’t believe that Wei Zheng really dares to stand up. If he really doesn’t work, he will kill him. Anyway, he has disliked him a long time ago!
Several carriages appeared in the county palace. The carriage looked ragged and made a heavy sound, as if it would fall apart at any time. The leader was a strong man who looked dusty.
It was the bearded guest who was heading south on a starry night last winter. He rushed day and night and finally returned to Chang'an in early spring, bringing five heavy carriages.
It was full of treasures he had obtained from across the sea for years. He picked out the most precious ones and transported them back to Chang'an.
"I am the bearded guest Zhang Zhongjian, and I want to see the Duke of Ankang County!" said the bearded guest aloud.
Although he was so proud of the world, he admired Su Cheng quite a lot, of course because Su Cheng's knowledge was extremely extensive, which made him amazed.
Although the storm last year did not cause a sensation in Chang'an, everyone in the county government knew it.
When he heard that the bearded guest from all over the world was coming again, the concierge hurried in to report.
"Hiss Zhang, please come in and ask!" Su Cheng smiled and greeted him.
"I finally arrived in Chang'an at night. The carriages were full of jewelry treasures. The county magistrate would appreciate them when you saw them. If you didn't look at them, they would pile them in the warehouse!" said the bearded guest boldly.
Su Cheng shook his head and said, "Actually, there is no need. Zhang Daxia wants to build a ship and go to sea, and he also needs money to prepare."
In fact, he really didn't care much about the treasures of the bearded guest. What he cared more about was whether the bearded guest had the ability to go to sea.
"There are still some things I have to stay on the island. It's too troublesome to transport them to Chang'an. Those are enough. The charts are so precious. If the county magistrate doesn't accept them, it would be shameful to me!" The bearded man said generously.
After saying this, Su Cheng had to accept it...
"I have prepared the shipbuilding map for you. I am preparing the navigation manual recently. I didn't expect that Zhang Daxia would enter Chang'an so quickly. I'm afraid it will take a few days to wait for Zhang Daxia now. Duke Wei is very concerned about Zhang Daxia!" Su Cheng explained with a smile.
