Zhenguan Xiaoxian Wang Li Shen Li Shimin

Chapter 1240 There are accomplices

Wang De did not expect Prince Ji to react like this. His roar was as loud as a lion's roar.

The shock caused Wang De to have some tinnitus.

“Your Majesty, there are only eight of the Nine Dragon Cups you gave to His Majesty now, and it doesn’t look good.

By then, people will say that your Ji Wang Mansion can't even get a Nine Dragon Cup together.

It is not a loss of face for you, Your Majesty."

Wang De tickled his ears and said to Li Shen with a flattering smile.

"Don't be ridiculous. That jade is made of Kunshan jade. Kunshan jade is extremely precious, and it is even harder to find in such a top-grade condition.

Even a jade pendant is worth a fortune, not to mention finding a large piece of Kunshan jade to carve into a teacup.

Do you know how much money I spent on this king of jade from a merchant from the Western Regions?

You think it's just ordinary jade, you can have as much as you want.

Go back and tell me, Aye, there is no more.

If you want to have a complete set, I can help you purchase them and ensure that the quality and color are the same.

But the price is two hundred thousand strings of cash, not a cent less."

Li Shen pointed two fingers at Wang De.

"Two hundred thousand strings of cash!!!"

Wang De opened his mouth so wide that his jaw almost dropped.

Is Prince Ji crazy because of poverty? He is so bold to open his mouth.

He asked for 200,000 strings of cash right away, which is not even the most expensive tax levied by a superior state.

"Your Majesty, this...isn't this too much?

And His Majesty...didn't say anything about buying it.

His Majesty said that Prince Ji must still have some stock, and that his mansion should also have cups made of Kunshan jade.

Your Majesty only needs one."

Wang De was also a little embarrassed. How could this miser possibly give him something if he just asked for it?

He estimated that even if His Majesty opened his mouth now, Prince Ji would say there was no more.

Your Majesty should understand your son. You will not be able to get him just by asking for it.

“Not even a single one. There is no Kunshan jade left in Prince Ji’s Mansion. I don’t even have any Kunshan stones.

Old King, please go back and report. I will not keep you for dinner."

Li Shen ordered Wang De to leave.

"Your Majesty..."

Wang De wanted to continue persuading him, but saw Li Shen turn around and ignore him and walk back.

While walking, he muttered:

"If you want my treasure, there's no way. No one can get it without money."

The voice was not loud, but Wang De still heard it clearly.

Wang De's forehead was immediately filled with black lines, thinking, if you want to talk, can't you speak more quietly? You have to let me hear it.

You did it on purpose.

"Your Highness, the Imperial Concubine has sent someone to deliver a message, and they are waiting outside."

Li Shen had just taken two steps when the doorman came running over to report.

"Let them come over."

Li Shen turned around and waited. His mother would definitely not send anyone over unless there was something wrong.

Did something happen in the palace?

Thinking of this, Li Shen began to worry.

After a while, several maids were brought over. The one leading them was exactly the female official of his mother's Daji Palace, and also his mother's confidant.

"Cui'er, did your mother ask you to come here? Is there something wrong? Are you ill? Or are you injured somewhere?"

Before the female official could speak, Li Shen stepped forward and asked anxiously.

The female official was also speechless. This man is truly a filial son. Can’t you just hope that the imperial concubine will do well?

"See His Highness Prince Ji."

Cui'er led a few people to pay their respects.

"Okay, no need to be so polite, Cui Er, tell me what's going on."

Li Shen waved his hand and continued to ask.

"My Lord, the Imperial Concubine is fine. Everything is going well.

Don’t worry, Ang.”

Cui'er replied.

"That's good. So why are you here..."

Hearing that everything was fine, Li Shen felt relieved.

"Your Highness, the Imperial Concubine asked the maid to come to see you to do something."

"what's up?"

Li Shen was a little surprised. Could it be about the Wei family?

"My Lord, it is like this. One of the nine dragon cups that the Lord gave to Your Majesty accidentally broke.

Your Majesty is deeply distressed by this.

When the Imperial Concubine learned about it, she became worried about His Majesty's health. She couldn't sleep at night, lost her appetite, and became increasingly thinner.

So the Imperial Concubine ordered His Royal Highness Prince Ji to find another one, carve it, and complete the Nine Dragon Cup for His Majesty.

Your Majesty has suffered a lot."

"Calla~~~~~"

A sound like lightning rang in Li Shen's heart, and he felt like he was petrified.

Wang De was standing aside. He had just wanted to leave, but when he heard that the female official from Daji Hall was coming, he stopped.

He vaguely felt something.

Sure enough, the female official's words verified his guess.

You are worthy of being His Majesty. Just now he was wondering why the King of Ji would let him ask for it when he knew that he would rather die than give up his money.

He felt at the time that His Majesty had made some mistakes.

But now it seems that everything is under your majesty's control.

He then asked, why did His Majesty go to Daji Palace just now? It turned out that he had a backup plan and was looking for reinforcements.

It seems that Your Majesty knows Prince Ji very well.

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine saw that Your Majesty was so worried that she lost her appetite and couldn't sleep at night.

I hope the prince can understand the queen's painstaking efforts.

Before coming, the queen also told the prince that money is something outside of one's body, and the prince should not care too much about it. "

Seeing that Li Shen didn't say anything, Cui'er tried to persuade him again.

"Money is something outside of one's body? Mother, that's so easy to say."

Li Shen's heavy voice sounded. This was really his biological mother. She actually helped outsiders to deal with him. However, it seemed that she was not an outsider, but his biological father.

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine is also worried about His Majesty's health. Look, the Imperial Concubine has said so. What about the Nine Dragon Cup......?"

Wang De asked with a smile when he saw Li Shen from the fleet.

"Give it to me, give it to me. I'll give you everything. Move all the money from Prince Ji's mansion's storehouse to the inner treasury tomorrow. Is that ok?"

Li Shen glared at Wang De and said unhappily.

"Then this old slave thanks His Royal Highness Prince Ji."

Wang Decai ignored Li Shen's murderous look and saluted with a smile.

"Cui'er, go back and tell my mother that I will take care of this matter, but you must never be blinded by certain people in the future.

He was the one who broke his life, he can't blame anyone else.

Although my Ji Wang Mansion seems to be wealthy and powerful, it is just an illusion and has long been weak inside.

Can't help but be concerned about by some people.

If this continues, the Ji Palace might have trouble getting food, and her grandchildren will have to go to Zhuque Street to beg for food."

After Li Shen finished speaking, he turned around and walked away angrily with his men.

"I will definitely tell the Imperial Concubine. I'll take my leave now."

Cui'er also smiled when she saw Li Shen leaving.

"Meet the chief steward."

"Well, no need to be polite. Fortunately, you came in time, otherwise I would not have been able to get the Nine Dragon Cup.

Your Majesty should still be in Daji Hall, right?

Then let’s go back to the palace together and report.”

Seeing Cui'er bowing, Wang De nodded and was in a good mood.

"I will follow the orders of the Grand Steward. Please, Grand Steward."

Cui'er was very polite.
