Chapter 440: Concubine Li appears
But Hua Feixue said that if she was kept, she could help the madam make a lot of money and ensure that the deal would be profitable.
I didn't expect this is the way to make money.
The madam felt so miserable that she couldn't even cry. She didn't even know that the person Hua Feixue wanted to offend was the Crown Prince!
If she knew, she would never agree to let her stay no matter what.
When the madam thought about the fact that she would have to stay here for three days with free food and drink, she felt sick all over!
But the problem was that the other party was the one the prince had specifically asked to be taken away. She could neither force her to receive the guest nor drive her away.
In addition, you have to ensure her safety at all times and provide her with good food and drink.
Thinking about it this way, the madam felt that this money was not actually that easy to earn!
Hua Feixue was satisfied. She knew that since she could make the Dog Prince react, he would definitely come back to redeem her.
The dog prince's money will eventually go into her pocket.
When Luo Jingshen felt uncomfortable, she felt comfortable. After all, it was because the other party had led people to wipe out their Blood Rain Sect.
She couldn't get over this anger.
I just don’t know, if Luo Jingshen knew that the reason he was impotent was because he was scared by the grenade thrown by Hua Feixue, how would he react?
Weiyang Palace, one hour later.
Jianlan rushed back from outside and told Concubine Li all the information she had obtained from the investigation.
"Empress Li, the situation with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't seem to be good."
Concubine Li frowned, her voice filled with anger, "Why is it not good? Could it be that he still can't let go of Ji Qingqing?"
Jian Lan shook her head and said, "It's not about love. It's that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has some problems with his business. The five barbecue restaurants he opened were all closed this morning. All the suppliers went to the gate of the East Palace to collect their debts, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not show up."
"According to what I have heard, there seems to be some problems in the Crown Prince's mansion. I heard that the 120 loads of betrothal gifts he brought back from the Yongning Marquis's mansion were all stolen, and there is no news from him now."
"The entire Eastern Palace should be very short of money at the moment. Otherwise, with your highness' financial resources, you wouldn't owe money to those suppliers and delay paying them back."
Concubine Li frowned, and her first reaction was to turn around and ask Jian Lan, "The prince is short of money, has the queen said anything?"
"No, I heard that the Queen has been busy arranging the Ninth Princess's marriage recently, and she has hardly asked about the Crown Prince's affairs."
After Jianlan finished speaking, Concubine Li's face twisted.
"Su Xiangwan is such a bitch, she is too biased. The prince is her son after all, but now that he is in trouble, she doesn't even want to help him. She only thinks about her daughter. This is outrageous!"
Jian Lan said: "When the Crown Prince threatened to marry Miss Ji Er, the Queen was very opposed. Later, when the betrothal gifts were sent, the Queen paid for a lot of furniture and betrothal gifts for the Crown Prince out of her own pocket. The total value is almost 100,000 taels!"
Concubine Li snorted coldly, showing disdain, "She is the mother of the prince, shouldn't she be added?"
"Don't even mention 100,000 taels. Even if it's 1 million taels, she should get the money. As the queen, Su Xiangwan should be entitled to do anything for the prince."
After Concubine Li finished cursing, she asked, "How much silver does the prince still need?"
Jianlan reported: "I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still owes the supplier 80,000 taels of silver."
Without even thinking, Concubine Li ordered: "Go to my room, open the box where I keep my money, and take out a hundred thousand taels of silver for me. I want to go see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
She couldn't wait any longer and couldn't wait to meet Luo Jingshen!
Jianlan responded and quickly took out a silver note worth one hundred thousand taels.
Concubine Li took the money and hurried out of the palace.
When she arrived at the gate of the East Palace, she saw through the carriage window that many suppliers were gathered there, yelling at the prince to pay back the money.
Concubine Li spoke in a cold tone, with a hint of anger, "This group of unruly people are so unruly that they dare to cause trouble at the gate of the East Palace!"
"No, I have to find a way to help the prince drive these people away."
Jian Lan suggested, "Your Highness, you might as well come in person. For one thing, most of the people of Dongchen Kingdom worship His Royal Highness the Night King. When they find out that you are His Royal Highness the Night King's biological mother, they will definitely give you this face."
"Secondly, Your Majesty wants to go in and see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but she can't find a suitable reason. Don't these people just give Your Majesty the opportunity?"
"As long as you help His Royal Highness solve this problem, I believe His Royal Highness will be grateful to the Queen."
Concubine Li thought about it and felt that there was some truth in what she said.
Apart from anything else, Luo Junhe's name is still very useful in Dongchen Kingdom.
These businessmen travel far and wide, and most of them admire heroes. What they like to brag about most is Luo Junhe's heroic deeds in leading troops to fight.
Maybe, if I come forward, I can really persuade them to retreat.
Concubine Li made up her mind and said, "Then I will go down and take a walk. If the prince asks about it later, I will say that I was just passing by and saw someone making trouble at the gate of the East Palace, so I came down to take a look."
Jianlan understood what she meant instantly. She jumped off the carriage and shouted in a loud voice: "Empress Li has arrived!"
Almost at the same time, everyone looked at the carriage.
Jianlan lifted the car curtain and reached out to carefully help Concubine Li down.
Seeing this, everyone knelt down and saluted, "I pay my respects to Her Majesty, Concubine Li."
Concubine Li glanced at them with disdain in her heart, but said calmly and elegantly: "Everyone, get up!"
"Why are you all blocking the entrance to the East Palace?"
Someone said, "To answer the question from Concubine Li, we are all suppliers of the Crown Prince's barbecue restaurant. But now that the Crown Prince's barbecue restaurant has been open for nearly ten days, we have not received a single payment. Now all five barbecue restaurants are closed. We are here just to get our money back."
Concubine Li took a few steps forward and said gently: "It's not right for you to block here. How about this? You go back first. I will convey your request to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on your behalf."
"You are anxious, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is even more anxious than you. Please understand His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and give him some time."
"I promise you that all debts will be paid off by then, and you won't lose a penny."
When everyone heard what Concubine Li said, they seemed to have some peace of mind.
One of the men said, "Empress Li is the biological mother of His Royal Highness the Night King. I believe what she said, so I will give His Royal Highness the Crown Prince three more days, and then I will come to the gate of the East Palace to collect the debt."
Someone spoke up, and others followed suit.
