Chapter 374

Listening to the exclamations around him, the fourth Prince looked around with great pride, but he was facing Shen Ninghua's dark eyes, which were cold and clear, with a sharp blade like light. He couldn't help but be stunned. When he wanted to observe carefully, he found that she had lowered her eyes.

Baili Qingcang suppressed his anger and looked at the fourth Prince coldly and said, "fourth, this first gift is so precious, this second gift is also extraordinary. Please open it and have a look."

The fourth Prince felt that something was out of control, but at this time, he was on the point of arrow and had to send it. He opened the red cloth on the second gift with apprehension, and the people suddenly exclaimed, "God, this This... "

Under the red cloth was a mirror that no one had seen before. The mirror was as high as a person. The mirror was as bright as water, and the figure was so delicate that even the tiny pores on the face could be seen.

For the first time, seeing his own influence so clearly, Bai Li Qingcang was stunned. If it was not for the emperor's insight and bearing, he would be surprised to jump up: "fourth, what is this?"

"Tell my father, this is a mirror that my son bought from westerners. They call it mercury mirror. It can show the fine and fine image of a person. I don't know how many times better than the bronze mirror. My son sent this mirror to wish my mother and concubine young and beautiful forever."

Hearing the words of the fourth prince, the shock in the heart of Baili Qingcang disappeared a little, and was replaced by a chill: "this mirror is really never seen."

When the fourth Prince heard the speech, he was elated: "yes, the western merchants who dealt with the children's ministers said that this was the only one sent to Da'an country."

The imperial concubine heard the speech, and her face was already tight, and she couldn't find a smile at the moment. She suddenly stood up and interrupted the fourth Prince's words. Her voice was anxious and anxious: "the emperor, the fourth elder is not sensible. He just wants to show his face on his concubine's birthday. It's all my concubine's teaching. Please punish him."

Baili Qingcang laughed: "what is your concubine doing? The fourth one will give you a birthday gift. It's filial to you. Will I pick the truth from this?"

Seeing his appearance, Li Guifei's uneasiness became more and more serious: "emperor, this..."

"The imperial concubine sits down, old four filial piety is commendable, I also feel extremely gratified." Bai Li Qing Cang said plain, but let Li Guifei heart more and more no bottom.

Four Prince Bai Li Jin Jing forehead sweating, this time he realized how dangerous his behavior is. What does a single birthday gift mean? It means that there is no such thing as father and Emperor! The father is the master of Da'an kingdom. What he didn't enjoy was sent to his mother's concubine. This is not a birthday celebration, but a disaster!

"Father and emperor, son minister..."

"Well, you go back. I'll see what the fifth sent to the imperial concubine?" Baili Qingcang waves to interrupt the fourth Prince's argument, and makes a voice to let him back down.

Bai Li Jun Yi stood up and stood up, with a slight smile on his face, as if he had not felt the turbulent undercurrent just now: "father and emperor, the children's ministers are not as generous as the crown prince, nor are the third and fourth brother's unique thoughts. They are all prepared as ordinary birthday gifts as the second emperor's brother. Please don't blame the imperial concubine."

Li Guifei's fear at this time was that the fifth prince also sent a generous gift. When she heard him say something ordinary, she was expecting it. The more common it was, the better it would be. She was already eye-catching. If the thing he sent was too heavy, she was afraid it would hit the Emperor's heart. She said in a voice: "the fifth Prince is too outspoken. Birthday gift is just a form. As long as you have this heart, No It's just as joyful in my palace to care about what is sent. "

Baili Jun Yi smile, quickly ordered one side of the palace: "hear the lady said so, I feel at ease, come on, quickly carry up my birthday."

Seeing the attendants carrying boxes coming in, Princess Li's smile, which was a little relaxed, suddenly stiffened on her face: how many boxes, large or small, are still ordinary birthday gifts? Bai Li Jun Yi is playing with her?

"Open the box."

The Chamberlain opened the box together, and found that the box was full, similar to the birthday gift given by the second prince. All of them were silk, jewelry and porcelain. It was indeed a common birthday gift. It was a pity that so many things were put together, which was not ordinary.

People were shocked. They thought that several princes were generous enough, but they didn't expect that they were rich and generous here! They are full of silk and jewels piled together. They are dazzling and charming. I'm afraid they have emptied many people's homes, but they can't afford these ten boxes.

Bai Li Qing Cang's face faintly blackened: "old five, you this thing pour is really many." This is twice as thick as the usual calendar for the birthday of the imperial concubine!

Bai Li Jun Yi's face was smiling: "father, my son's ministers have made a lot of money through Hua Jun's medicine company in recent years, and they don't have much money in their daily life. They just take advantage of the opportunity of offering birthday gifts to send them out. When it comes to your birthday, the children's ministers will tidy up the family, and how can they gather together dozens of boxes to carry them in Come onLi Guifei's face suddenly changed. At this time, she suddenly realized that what's the use of Bai Li Jun Yi's gifts. He didn't celebrate her birthday at all. He wanted to make her live longer! She turned her head and looked at Bai Li Qing Cang, and sure enough she saw that his anger had been revealed.

"The fifth Prince is backed up by Hua Jun's medicine business, so it's no fault that the gifts given by the rest of you are so thick. Where did you get the silver?"

The crown prince used to have plenty of money. Most of them were supported by the queen and Zhao family. Now he has cut down the queen and Zhao family. Where did he get the money to buy such a precious coral tree? There are also the second prince, the third prince and the fourth prince. They are now receiving the salary of the imperial court. Some time ago, they were punished by him for corruption. It is very difficult for them to support a large family of the government by relying on their own property. Where can they afford to buy generous gifts?

"The Emperor..." Li Guifei wants to plead guilty, she wants to find a way to pick out the third prince and the fourth prince!

Bai Li Qing Cang, however, did not give her this opportunity: "imperial concubine, today you are the birthday star, just sit quietly."

Li Guifei bit her lip and was quiet If she is quiet, she is afraid that her two sons will join in today! What should we do? What should we do? She hated Bai Li Jun Yi thoroughly in her heart. If her eyes could kill people, Bai Li Jun Yi and Shen Ninghua would not have known how many times they had been cut to death.

Baili Qingcang took the lead to look at the Prince: "prince, tell me about your coral tree value? How did you get the silver? "

The crown prince stood up and hesitated for a while before he opened his mouth. His face was a little gloomy: "tell my father, this coral tree cost 20000 Liang silver. Originally, the son's minister was ready to give it to her mother on her birthday. Unfortunately, she died early, but she had to wait until her birthday The son minister only felt sad when he saw it. Hearing that Li Guifei was born, he thought of offering flowers to Buddha

Hearing this, a hundred Li Qing cangcangcang look, if it was originally intended to give Zhao Huiying, then this gift is also appropriate. At the beginning, the Zhao family did not fall, and the prince's family was rich. Twenty thousand taels of silver was reasonable.

Li Guifei only felt sick when she heard this, and her eyes changed when she looked at the coral tree. It turns out that this gift is for Zhao Huiying? She and Zhao Huiying can be said to be big enemies. They have been bullied by the queen for so many years. Now they have finally turned over, but they have received a gift that should be given to her. They all feel uncomfortable.

Baili Qingcang just wants to frighten several princes, not really to tear their faces. After all, there are many outsiders present: "OK, the prince's explanation makes sense. Second prince, although you have many gifts, they are all ordinary things, which is reasonable. What about the third and fourth? The gifts you give will cost tens of thousands of Liang silver at least. I remember that I fined your salary before. Where did you get so much money? "

The third prince and the fourth Prince knelt down in a cold sweat. How should we explain it? It was given by the Lin family. How can the Lin family have so much money? Say they took it from the people below? That is, they are corrupt and bribed! What is the prestige of the emperor's taking bribes and robbing people's fat and cream?

The third prince had an idea and thought of the excuse first: "reply to the father. The gift of the son's minister was actually left by Bu Tinghe at the beginning."

"What are you talking about? Bu Tinghe

"Yes," he said. Even if he felt ashamed, he still insisted on saying it. The third prince continued, "Bu Tinghe brought a lot of dowries when she married his son's minister. However, she was not lucky enough to die on the day of marriage. Therefore, it was useless to put so many things in the children's mansion. He thought of sending it to his mother's concubine, which was a little filial piety of Tinghe and me."

Shen Ning Hua slightly closed his eyes, and his eyes were full of sneers: the third prince is really brazen. He moves the dowry of a woman in such a reasonable way. Is it filial piety? Don't you fear that Bu Tinghe climbs up from below in the middle of the night to find him! In Da'an, it's a shame to move a woman's dowry!

Li Guifei felt uncomfortable when she received the prince's gift, but when she heard the third prince's words, she really felt sick from her internal organs. Bu Tinghe's dowry ah, how confused was the third prince?

The ladies and ladies below have completely changed their eyes when they look at the third prince. How shameless it is to move a woman's dowry. Some poor people will not do this until they have to. Is it possible that the third prince is too poor to live?

Bai Li Qing Cang's face was black, and he didn't expect his son to be so "competitive", didn't he feel ashamed?

"Fourth, what about yours?"

"Reply to my father and your son's birthday Well Please forgive me

"Well? What are you guilty of? "

"The screen and the Western mirror were bought by the children from the westerners. The Westerners especially like our porcelain embroidery, and the children bought these two things with some porcelain and embroidery." The fourth prince said, his face slightly red, as if he was extremely embarrassed.
