This is an anti-theft chapter
"The prince, servant and maid roughly estimated that according to the status of our county palace, this festival will cost about four thousand taels of silver."
"So much?" Qin Nuo was startled, "Just after a festival, his salary for half a year will be gone."
"It's already the most frugal. This is because the prince has just opened his mansion now, and there are not many people who come and go. It only needs a few clan princes to walk around." Dongbo said honestly.
After leaving the palace, the social circle of people gradually expands. In the future, the number of people who need to move around when concubines and concubines are used to make friends will have to be at least five or six times higher.
Qin Nuo flipped through the gift list drawn up by Dongbo. I immediately realized that this would be a net expenditure.
As a royal family member, we must pay attention to a decent person. It is impossible to take it in with the left hand and send it out with the right hand like modern human relations. It is impossible to circulate those gold and silver gifts back and forth.
If the jade ornaments that the Prince Wang gave to Li Guogong appeared on Song Guogong's mansion a month later, it can only show two things. Either Li Guogong looked down on Wanghouye, or Li Guogong's family had been ruined. , I can’t bring out any other decent things, no matter which kind, it will be a laughing stock in the social circles of the capital, greatly hurting the reputation value of Li Guogong's mansion.
This phenomenon is caused because of this era or the era of handicraft industry. Both antique toys and gold and jade utensils are unique. Even common objects such as gold bowls and silver chopsticks cast by the Ministry of Internal Affairs in batches must be in A special mark is printed underneath, listing the date and serial number of the show. Unlike later generations, the same merchandise will go around and be the same.
Just one Mid-Autumn Festival will have so many, and in a few months, there will be a more grand New Year. This is still under the premise that any festival etiquette must be simplified during the national funeral. When there is a funeral next year, won't the expenses have to be doubled? According to the etiquette of the Great Zhou, the period of filial piety is nominally three years, but after the New Year's Day, the daily banquets can be resumed, and the marriage of ordinary people is not prohibited.
No wonder Qin Xun is clamoring to make money. It is really difficult to make money only from the salary and the little money from Zhuangzi.
It's just that the nausea of gambling can never be contaminated.
After pondering for a moment, Qin Nuo asked, "Dongbo, have you heard of other royal palaces and how do they make money?"
Dongbo's face showed a sense of relief. My prince has improved his brain a lot since he suffered a serious illness six months ago, but his gentle and kind character is still there.
"As far as slaves and maidservants know, most of the princes’ homes have shops and farms, some of them are involved in sea trade, they have several caravans, and some have big business in northern Xinjiang. Like Dongjun Wang’s Mansion, it has many businesses. The silk and satin shop buys from Nanyang every year..."
Sure enough, everyone has a way to get rich.
Handing the ledger back to Dongbo, Qin Nuo said: "Let me think about it. I have to make some money."
"The prince is wise, in fact, there is no need to be impatient. I have just opened the mansion, and I will save some silver in the future, and slowly buy manor shops. Money can generate money, and naturally I will gradually become rich." Dong Bo took the account book, warmly Persuade.
This is trying to persuade myself not to spend money in disguise. It's really not something ordinary people can do for six hundred taels to buy a badly wounded person who is of no use. Qin Nuo knew it well and said with a smile, "I know, it won't be anymore." He doesn't have a special hobby, he just wants a cheap master.
The big plan for making a fortune can be discussed slowly, and now Qin Nuo still has a top priority to be busy.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is an important festival of the Great Zhou Dynasty. According to tradition, the clan and officials are to enter the palace to meet and give a banquet. This year because of the national funeral, the scale of the banquet has been greatly reduced. Officials are only Grade 3 or above, and only princes, county princes and their elder sons enter the palace to participate in the banquet. Qin Nuo happened to be in the palace.
So after leaving the palace for half a month, Qin Nuo once again returned to the center of Da Zhou's power.
Enter the palace by car, walk past Qinghe Gate, and get on and off in the square on the west side of the palace. Following the leading eunuchs through the corridors, the familiar pavilions are still familiar, but there is a sense of alienation in the eyes.
He was not the only one who felt this way. As soon as he walked into the Liuguang Palace, he heard Qin Xun's voice: "I haven't seen you for more than half a month, how come this palace has changed its appearance."
Qin Xun's chubby body sits on the seat near the east. Seeing Qin Nuo coming in, the first one greeted: "Nine brothers, among the brothers, you are the latest one."
Qin Nuo glanced over, the familiar location, familiar people, and all the princes were basically there, except for Qin Ze, who was guarding the imperial tomb, and Qin Jian was also missing.
I smiled casually: "Isn't the third brother here yet."
"The third brother came here early this morning, and he reported on official affairs at the Hall of Supreme Harmony, I'm afraid he will come later."
Qin Jian is not the same as the few of them who have taken the banquet and banquet. The title is a higher prince, and the position is also compiled by the Wenshiku.
It stands to reason that Qin Jian’s position is actually a leisurely first-class position. No one expects His Royal Highness to participate in the technical work of compiling books. He just waits for the completion of the compilation of literature and history and adds a signature to him. Why do you have to go back to the official business for so long?
Qin Xun showed a playful smile about Qin Nuo’s doubts, "Brother Brother, you are busy with everything."
There is a play! From Qin Xun's expression, I knew that Qin Jian was definitely in an accident, but this fat man didn't say what exactly happened, and he couldn't follow it up. After all, all the brothers were in the temple.
After a while, the princes and county princes from the clan family gradually arrived, and they greeted each other in the wide hall. Qin Xun, a socialist, was so busy that he was reminiscing with this one while chatting with that one.
Qin Nuo was much more leisurely, and he had never liked this kind of occasion, so he slipped out without any attention.
Withholding the imperial follower, he pretended to admire the scenery of the small garden of Qianyuan Palace and walked slowly alone.
Walking westward along the Qianyuan Hall, turning to a secluded corridor, Qin Nuo carefully looked around. Confirming that there is no one, he climbed the railing, jumped up, and jumped onto the crossbar at the corner.
In the corner of the beam, a small package is lying quietly there. Qin Nuo breathed a sigh of relief instantly. Last time I walked here pretending to be Concubine Ge Xian, he took off Concubine Ge's cloak and hairpin and hid it on the beam. Immediately after that, Emperor Jing Yao died, the national funeral was a major event, and Qianyuan Palace went in and out frequently. He didn't find time to come here to take his clothes until the king opened his mansion and left the palace.
Now, taking advantage of the opportunity to enter the palace, he quickly wiped out this crime. Putting the cloak into his arms, Qin Nuo jumped off the beam, and then headed north along Xiyue Lake, finally finding a hidden place.
He took off his shoes and socks, stepped barefoot into the water, lifted a large rock in the lake, and pressed the cloak to the bottom.
In another year or a half, even if this cloak is found, it will only be thought that Concubine Ge Xian accidentally fell off when she fell into the lake, and was involved in a crack in the stone.
Let go of a worry, Qin Nuo went back to the rocky crevice on the shore and put on his shoes and socks, thinking that it was still early to leave the feast anyway, should I go see Qin Zhi first? I don’t know how my sister is doing.
I haven't acted yet, suddenly I heard a crisp voice coming from behind, with anger: "His Royal Highness, please respect yourself!"
Qin Nuo was startled, and his hand in the shoes trembled suddenly.
"Is there any place that doesn't respect yourself? You can tell me!"
Isn't it Qin Jian that the familiar voice of Yin test sounded?
Qin Nuo stood up cautiously and looked in the direction of the sound source through the gap in the stone.
On the opposite side of the rockery is a maple forest, the land is in full swing, and a girl with a sagittarius appearance stands in the rich background. She wears a long yellow dress with glittering pearls and a satin shawl studded with white fox velvet on her shoulders. Although he is only fourteen or five years old, he already looks alluring. Was this the lady who came to the palace to come to the court?
Qin Jian, who was opposite her, dressed in a dark purple prince's court clothes, reflected the already dark face more and more gloomy and unpredictable.
"Actually, according to Nucai, you don't have to look for the House of Internal Affairs, as long as you send the person to the opposite side." Li Wan made a nuisance at Xidian.
"No, I lost my ugliness this time. I think the green lotus will be able to rest for a while." Qin Nuo sighed. With Ge Xianfei's power, even if it was changed to another one, it would be no different from Green Lotus. Moreover, Concubine Ge Xian has always awed the palace people for her harsh temperament. The girl in Green Lotus really wants to send her back, I'm afraid she will soon be beaten to death with an excuse.
Li Wan understood his scruples and couldn't help but muttered: "His Royal Highness is kindness." But he didn't oppose this decision anymore.
Serve Qin Nuo well, and Li Wan goes out to urge meals.
Qin Nuo is alone in the room, carefully looking at the delicate face reflected in the mirror. This body is a bit good, that is, it perfectly inherits the appearance of his mother, Concubine Chen, with delicate brows and delicate eyes. Thin body, if you put on women's clothing, it is really easy to be mistaken for a girl.
I was looking at it, and suddenly a figure rushed up from behind the cabinet.
Qin Nuo didn't dodge, just stretched out a hand to block the opponent firmly.
"Brother." The girl's delicate voice sounded. Appearance is similar to Qin Nuo's seven or eight points, and it is the 13th princess Qin Zhi, the sister of his twins.
She angrily opened Qin Nuo's hand on her forehead, "Every time, I look thinner than me, how can I be so strong!"
"Who made you eat so much, getting fatter, like a ball."
"You are eating better than me." Qin Zhi exclaimed angrily. What she said was correct. Qin Nuo's appetite was almost two or three times as much as hers, and he didn't know where all the things he ate in his stomach went to.
Because of the early death of Concubine Chen, brothers and sisters Qin Nuo have a very good relationship. Qin Zhi was full of joy for his brother's gradual resuscitation in the past six months, and he was no longer so dumb. He never thought that his brother had already died in a serious illness a few months ago. Now it is another person who has woken up.
Qin Nuo still likes this cheap sister who posted it. And since he inherited Qin Nuo's identity, he should take good care of his family.
Qin Nuo asked casually: "Why did you come here again today? Not with the two emperor sisters."
According to Da Zhou’s palace rules, the prince must move out to live alone when he arrives at Kaimeng. Instead, the daughter can always be raised under the concubine’s knees. Of course, princesses like Qin Zhi who do not have a mother and concubine are not included in this list.
There are three such princesses, namely the Ninth Princess, the Twelve Princess, and the Thirteen Princess Qin Zhi. The three of them lived together in Shunde Palace on the north side of Xiyue Lake.
"Recently, Shunde Palace cannot live anymore. Sister Nine Emperors and Sister Twelve Emperors wash their faces with tears every day. I can't stand it anymore."
"What's wrong?"
"I heard that there was another courtier's memorial today, mentioning the marriage with Beishuo, who wants to marry those barbarians."
Beishuo is in the north of the Great Zhou. There are nomadic horse races everywhere. They were originally vassals of the Great Zhou. They were called vassals and paid tribute every year. They were eager to get some rewards until a few dozen years ago. The tribes have come out of an extraordinary genius, unified the tribes, founded the country and became the king, and the power quickly became stronger. At the beginning, it maintained the tradition of claiming courtiers to the Great Zhou. Two generations later, it began to rebel against the guests, harassing the northern border and becoming a major problem.
On the other hand, in the Great Zhou Dynasty, there have been civil strifes in recent decades, especially the Four Kings Rebellion 20 years ago, which greatly damaged the vitality of the entire imperial court. Although Emperor Jing Yao successfully ascended the throne, the forces in the DPRK were complicated, Jing Yao The emperor himself was not the master of talents and roughness, and the authority of the court has been declining in recent years.
No matter how you look at it, it is the end of the dynasty!
Qin Nuo sighed brightly and sadly. He finally had a good life without worrying about food and clothes. He didn't want to go back to before liberation.
In terms of marriage, there are only a few unmarried princesses in the middle of Korea today. Others are dependent on mothers and families. Most of the selected are the nine princesses or the twelve princesses. Both of them were mothers and concubines from humble birth and died young, and there was no brother in the palace to rely on. They could only live cautiously in this palace.
Qin Nuo couldn't help but be fortunate that Qin Zhi was still young, so don't worry about this.
With the effort of speaking, Li Wan brought the waiter to bring dinner. Turning a blind eye to Qin Zhi who appeared in the room, he obviously knew that the thirteenth princess had come.
The two palace ladies laid out a dozen cups and saucers one by one, and stepped out one after another.
