The queen who wears books always wants to bully me

Chapter 358 100 million taels of gold

Prince Qi and King Ling frowned, some couldn't believe it, the emperor's tone was quite firm, could it be that she has the money to pay back?

The two of them glanced at Chu Bei, and immediately understood that she could only borrow it from her queen.

Thinking of this, they were impolite and took out all three IOUs.

"Counting the interest is 100 million taels of gold."

"How many?"

Mu Wan's face was a little ugly, and she took three IOUs and took a closer look. One was 30 taels, one was 20 taels, and the other was 28 taels. The total was 78 taels, and the interest was only 22 taels.

She clutched the IOU tightly, her fingers turning white.

After comparing the original owner's handwriting, it was indeed written by her, and she couldn't deny it even if she wanted to deny it.

But it's impossible for her to borrow so much money.

Mu Wan looked at Chu Bei.

Chu Bei sighed secretly, his eyes dodged slightly, and he nodded. It was true that she borrowed the money, and it was precisely because she was tricked that she had to borrow so much to fill the hole she poked.

Mu Wan was so angry that she vomited blood silently. According to this huge amount, she invented a money printing machine, and it was not enough to print banknotes every day.

She still hasn't paid off the huge amount owed to Chu Fox.

Now there is another mountain.

This is simply cheating.

Mu Wan closed her eyes and looked at the account book that Uncle Lin sent to the palace. At present, her small treasury, hot pot restaurant, private order, and the income from the extra property of the Princess Mansion, all added up, only 30 a month. Income is two.

Originally, the money was intended to be used to build the shantang, and to supplement this month's military salary and salary.

It now appears to be far from enough.

Seeing that the empress looked a little bit battered and veined, Qi Wang and the others curled their lips slightly, not feeling secretly proud.

Mu Wan raised her eyes to look at them, and began to negotiate terms, saying, "If you want my help, the 100 million taels of gold is considered hard work. If the brothers agree, I will immediately draw up a decree for Miss Zhou and Ling Ling." Brother Wang bestows marriage, how about it?"

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhou's eyes lit up, and she looked at the two princes with anticipation.

Ke Qi Wang and the others immediately turned blue and looked at her coldly, obviously don't even think about it.

"The emperor's hard work is too expensive, and this king can't afford it."

They are not the ones who want to marry Miss Zhou, so it is very good that Ling Wang is willing to give his share.

Even if she doesn't agree to the marriage, they are not in a hurry.

Anyway, Miss Zhou has lost her virginity, her reputation has been ruined, and no one in the entire capital dares to marry her.

Big deal, let King Ling accept her as a concubine.

It's not them who are in a hurry.

It will only be the Zhou family. Let the Zhou family pay the money.

Mrs. Zhou's complexion changed slightly, 100 million taels of gold is not enough to buy the entire Zhou family.

It is impossible for them to agree to King Qi.

She had no choice but to kneel down and beg Mu Wan.

But Mu Wan is even more hard-hearted than he imagined, Zhou Ruolan covets her queen, although this time she is also plotted by King Ling, but if she doesn't make up her mind first, and honestly be her Princess Li, so what? As for being reduced to this level?

So she will not sympathize with Zhou Ruolan.

If she softens her heart to sympathize with others, then who will sympathize with her?
"Teacher, get up. It's not that I refuse to make an order. It's really against the rules. If Miss Zhou did such a shameless and immoral thing, if I still give her an order to marry her to become Princess Ling, how decent is that? The world How will the people treat me?"

One million taels of gold is not much at all. She is an empress, she speaks words well, and she keeps her promises. An imperial decree is a life-saving talisman. After it is over, she has to take risks and anger the empress dowager.

If Zhou Ruolan didn't have enough benefits, Zhou Ruolan was not related to her, and she coveted her man, and the Zhou family had two hearts for her, why would she do such a loss-making business?

If it weren't for this gambling debt, she wouldn't be bothered to meddle in this business.

It would be best for them to bite the dog with Prince Li, and she would just wait to reap the benefits.

The harder they fought, the happier she was.

The Empress Dowager and Prince Li would definitely not be able to swallow this tone. If the Zhou family did not take refuge in King Qi and the others, the Empress would just sit back and watch, and the Zhou family would undoubtedly die in the future.

Thinking of this, Old Madam Zhou's face turned pale, and he was a bit shaky. He made a wrong move. He played chess all his life, but he lost terribly because of Zhou Ruolan.

If the empress did not issue the imperial decree of bestowing marriage, the empress dowager would definitely not agree to King Ling marrying Zhou Ruolan as the main concubine, and even the side concubine would not agree.

The dignified Tai Fu's eldest daughter was reduced to a concubine, so in the future, other girls in the Zhou Mansion will be able to hold their heads up?
Moreover, Zhou Ruolan's behavior has not only affected herself, the girls in the Zhou family, and everyone in the world will treat the Zhou family with colored glasses.

The Zhou family couldn't get together the money, so they had no choice but to go back and persuade Zhou Ruolan to become a concubine... This is the last way, there is no choice.

...

The empress paid off the 100 taels of gold on the same day.

But the money was borrowed from Chu Bei.

Mu Wan settled her debts, and now only Chu Bei, Situ Mo, Xia Houjin, Su Ran, and even Fu Si's money remained.

It was agreed to pay back 3000 taels to the queen every month, but I haven't paid it back recently.

Chubei alone is more than 400 million taels of gold, not counting the interest.

After making the list, Mu Wan's eyes went dark when she saw it, and she lay on the table with a headache.

"The king said that you don't need to pay back the money." Chu Bei came over and rubbed her temples with a smile.

Mu Wan got up and looked at him with narrowed eyes, "Is there a free lunch in the world?"

She doesn't need to pay it back, he wants her to pay with flesh.

How aggrieved.

Why should she wrong herself for something that can be solved with money?

It's not that she is incapable of making money, it just takes a little time.

Chu Bei's eyes darkened slightly, and he said displeasedly, "The emperor always has to be so clear with this king, is this king an outsider?"

Mu Wan was not angry, but just smiled and said, "One yard is worth one yard. The queen is not born to owe me. The disaster is my fault, and the consequences must be borne by myself. Isn't this what you often tell me? Qian Zhen I will pay you back, I didn't treat you as an outsider, it won't affect my love for you, don't worry."

Chu Bei: "..."

"The whole world belongs to the emperor, and this king also belongs to the emperor. The emperor doesn't need to be polite to this king. The money of this king should be spent on you."

Mu Wan: "..."

...

The Empress Dowager learned that King Qi and the others had entered the palace to look for the empress, and it didn't take long for someone to invite her to Shoukang Palace.

The old lady is sick, so she will naturally go to visit, so as not to fall into the trap.Not only the empress, but also the concubines have to go to serve the sick together.

Of course, it is impossible to really stay to serve the sick, just put on a show, everyone can pretend, so I won't be explicit.

The empress came to Shoukang Palace with several young men above the concubine status.

"Greetings to the imperial grandmother."

The old lady was half lying on the bed, her face was pale, and she was a little breathless, she was indeed seriously ill.

No matter how strong your body is, you won't be able to handle being angry continuously, no matter how old you are.

If she hadn't been born in the royal family and lived a life of pampering and good food all her life, at her age, she was so angry that she vomited blood and couldn't afford to fall ill. If she was an ordinary poor family, she might have gone to Hexi.

"The emperor has a heart. I heard that Mrs. Zhou asked you to marry King Ling and Zhou Ruolan. Is there such a thing?"

The old lady coughed lightly, and asked directly.

Although he was ill, those deep and sharp eyes were still sharp and majestic.

From the crown princess, empress, queen dowager to the current empress dowager, she has been smooth and pampered all the way. Except for her son's disobedience, she has never met an opponent in her life.

Therefore, the majesty of the old lady cannot tolerate anyone's provocation, Zhou Ruolan undoubtedly touched the old lady's back.
