"What?" King Chen looked at the cloak that Jiuzhu lifted, and there was a carved wooden box hidden inside.

"Hehe." Jiuzhu smiled mysteriously, pulled the cloak outside, and tried to cover herself and King Chen: "Your Highness, please open it and take a look."

"Then I opened it?" King Chen remembered the bad behavior of sending crickets to the teacher when he was a child: "There is nothing else inside, right?"

"There are so many." Jiuzhu reluctantly touched the box: "This is something I have saved for a long time. Open it quickly, so don't let people see it."

Under Jiuzhu's anticipated gaze, King Chen opened the box and was stunned when he saw what was inside.

Broken silver, silver notes, gold hairpins, and even golden peanuts specially made by elders for younger generations, as well as several stagnant copper coins.

Copper coins... are also considered treasures?

"Is this?"

"It's for you." Jiuzhu put the wooden box into King Chen's arms: "These hairpins are all worth a lot of gold and are relatively valuable. There are also these broken silver and silver notes, which are two or three hundred taels. You can use them first, and I will bring you money when I enter the palace next time."

"What are you doing for me with the money?"

The wooden box is heavy, it should be all Ming Xiaozhu’s belongings.

"I have heard of what happened in the palace." Jiuzhu lowered her voice: "Your Majesty has stopped your salary for half a year, and you won't let the Empress bring you something."

The emperor said nothing about his words and said that his highness would not be given money to spend. His highness is used to being rich and well-behaved, so how can he live without money?

King Chen's hand holding the wooden box moved slightly, and the broken silver rolled in the wooden box, making a pleasant sound.

"Give me this money, what do you do?"

"Recently, Brother Fu Liu asked me to help him run errands, so I should be able to earn a small amount of money. I don't have to worry about other food and drink expenses." Jiuzhu carefully considered how to spend this month: "It's the Chinese New Year almost, and the elders in the family should give me New Year's money. So don't worry, I won't be short of money."

"For the next six months, I'll let you raise me?" King Chen hugged the wooden box and laughed.

"Well, I'll support you." Jiuzhu nodded: "It's just to let Your Highness down and save some money."

King Chen looked at the girl squatting in front of him, his heartbeats like broken silver in a box, jumping, jumping loudly and fast, and even clamoring his ears.

He rubbed his ears: "I have money, how can I spend your little girl's money?"

Jiuzhu held her face in both hands and looked at King Chen with grievance: "Your Highness, do you really want it?"

"No." King Chen put the wooden box back on her knees: "Take it back and spend it yourself."

Another girl is shopping for rouge and water powder. Does his girl have to watch her?

"Okay." Jiuzhu lowered her head, and she clenched the relief on the wooden box: "Then I'll go to the concubine's place."

"Wait." King Chen grabbed her hand and sighed.

Jiuzhu looked at him with big watery eyes.

"One of us is half?" King Chen opened the box: "You keep the golden hairpin, I take the silver note, the broken silver... We are half the money, okay?"

It turns out that if you don’t want the little girl’s money, you will feel guilty.

"Okay." Jiuzhu nodded happily: "The golden hairpin is divided into two of you. The silver bill is too small, not enough for you to spend."

"Okay, I'll share with me." King Chen felt relieved when he saw that Jiuzhu was indeed happy. The girl's mood changed too quickly, and even the sky in June was not as good as that in June.

Emperor Longfeng stood silently, watching his son and the little girl share the money. One piece of you, one piece of me, even several scattered coins of copper.

"The box is also given to you. Sister of the Spring Equinox said that this kind of wood is the most valuable." Jiuzhu poked the golden hairpin into her hair bun: "When the New Year's Eve, I will get both the salary and the New Year's money, and I will give your highness the silver."

King Chen helped her adjust the position of the golden hairpin and spoke slowly: "Okay."

Anyway, she's happy.

"What are you doing here?" Emperor Longfeng waited for a long time, and finally waited for them to share the money and slowly walked behind the two of them.

"Your Majesty?" Jiuzhu quickly took the wooden box from King Chen's hand, stood up and saluted Emperor Longfeng: "My daughter pays me a blessing to Your Majesty."

"Father." King Chen bowed to Emperor Longfeng: "Why are you here?"

"Come here to see you." Emperor Longfeng glanced at the purse on his son's waist and smiled gently at Jiuzhu: "Jiuzhu, what game are you doing here with Duqing?"

"Return to Your Majesty, my daughter has two new golden hairpins. I want your Highness to see." Jiuzhu lowered her eyelids and felt embarrassed to see Emperor Longfeng. As the daughter of a court official, she actually lied to Your Majesty, she was guilty.

"Yes." Emperor Longfeng nodded and turned to Liu Zhongbao and said, "I have several sets of jewelry heads in my private warehouse. You can take them to Mingyue Palace and let the imperial concubine and Jiuzhu carry them to wear."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Jiuzhu felt even more guilty. She lied to Your Majesty, and Your Majesty also gave her and the Empress, she was guilty!

Seeing Jiuzhu's dejected look, ashamed and embarrassed, King Chen couldn't help but say, "Father, don't tease Miss Ming anymore, she's still young."

Emperor Longfeng looked at his son with a smile, and he was protecting him?

King Chen coughed dryly, protecting Jiuzhu without saying anything.

"You haven't seen each other for a long time, so I'll go back to Taiyang Palace first." Emperor Longfeng looked at Zhang Liu Palace and turned around and left.

When Emperor Longfeng left, Jiuzhu let out a long sigh and said to King Chen in a low voice: "Fortunately, Your Majesty did not find out that I secretly brought you the silver."

King Chen touched her head lovingly: "Let's go, I'll accompany you to take you to the Mingyue Palace."

Jiuzhu touched the place where King Chen touched: "Your Highness, are you still used to living in Zhangliu Palace?"

"It's okay, it's just a little narrower, not as free as the royal palace."

"Oh." Jiuzhu nodded in a clear way. His Highness was wronged. She pointed at the wooden box: "Your Highness, let the servant take this back to your yard first."

"Okay." King Chen called a little eunuch and reached out to prepare for the wooden box. Jiuzhu had already put the box in the little eunuch: "Please trouble my father-in-law."

"I dare not." The little eunuch took the wooden box and walked into the courtyard gate. He looked back. The girl from Ming didn't know what she said, but His Highness looked at Miss Ming with gentleness in her eyes.

The secret guard hidden in the darkness finally couldn't help but cover his mouth and laughed silently, laughing so hard that the branches trembled and the leaves rustled.

Hahahahahaha, His Highness, the dignified King of Chen, actually asked his fiancée to secretly use money to support him.

As he smiled, he suddenly stopped laughing.

The noble daughter of the imperial court, who was in such a big circle, risked offending the emperor, had to send her own money into the palace, with such affection...

Not only does he not want to laugh, he is also a little sour.

"Ming Xiaozhu." King Chen looked at Jiuzhu with his brisk steps: "On New Year's Eve, there are only eight days left."

With forty days left, it is the day of his wedding with her.

"Yeah!" Jiuzhu nodded happily: "Mother said that after the New Year, my brother will be back."

King Chen then remembered that Ming Jiuzhu had another brother. If he remembered correctly, Yun Yanze admired Ming Jiuzhu's brother very much.

What is his future elder brother’s name?

Ming... Ming Shuyuan?

Reading a poem sent far away is better than reading thousands of books.

Many people say that with Ming Jiyuan's talent, he could have won the first place in the palace examination. However, the Ming family has produced two top scorers, one of them. If he is given the top spot in high school, it will attract many people's dissatisfaction, so the court intends to suppress his ranking and let him take the list.

Chuanlu, the fourth place in the palace examination and the first place in the second grade, is still an unattainable ranking among many scholars in the world.

He never dealt with such scholars before, nor did he know if his future elder brother would have any objections to him?

Generally, people who appreciate Yun Yanze don’t seem to like him very much.

"Brother Ling, do you know my engagement with you?" King Chen had a fever on his cheek: "What do he like on weekdays? When he comes back, I should also welcome him."

"I probably know." Jiuzhu stopped and bit the corner of her lips and thought.

"Don't bite." King Chen stretched out his fingers and gently rubbed the corners of her lips.

"Ah?" Jiuzhu looked at him blankly.

"No, nothing." King Chen clenched his hand into a fist, his back behind him, and his cheeks became even hotter: "It's just that you don't bite your lips. It's you who bite it through."

"Oh." Jiuzhu licked her lips with the tip of her tongue: "It's not broken."

King Chen looked at her lips, turned his head, and his cheeks turned into a burning cloud.

"Your Highness, what's wrong with you?" Jiuzhu ran to him: "Is your face blushing?"

King Chen turned his face to the other side: "No, you read it wrong, it's because my cloak is too red."

Jiuzhu ran around King Chen to the other side and said seriously: "It's really hot, it has nothing to do with the cloak."

"Don't speak anymore." King Chen reached out to cover her mouth: "Otherwise, I will...

What can he do to her?

You can't beat you, you can't scold you.

Big eyes, long eyelashes, curved willow-leaf eyebrows, and when he looked at him with a smile, he looked like a puppy. Even if he was a beast, he could not say a harsh word to such a girl.

He had never realized so clearly that he had no way to use Ming Jiuzhu.

He, Yun Duqing, seemed to be finished.

King Chen let go of his hand and sighed.

Jiuzhu stared at him and blinked again.

"If you want to say anything, just say it." King Chen looked up at the sky: "I have accepted it."

Jiuzhu stood on tiptoe and reached out to touch King Chen's forehead.
