The Regent's Little Wife

Chapter 243 Sang Ning Asks for 10 Gold

Emperor Shen Huaian was so angry that he couldn't speak for a long time. After a while, he slowly said, "Ning'er... I didn't expect that this incident would happen today. I have already known that it was indeed the Crown Princess' fault after looking at the whole incident. How do you want to solve it? Just tell me. As long as I can do it, I will make the decision for you..."

The emperor now saw the situation today. He saw Sangjie standing aside with a face full of anger, and he said nothing. The regent Shen Yan also had a livid face. Now the world is still eyeing him covetously, and he still needs to rely on the regent Shen Yan and Sangjie, so he must not offend these two great gods.

"Father... In this case, I will speak boldly. I heard that the Lin family has many shops and their business is spread all over the country. The Crown Princess's health is precious, so we should compensate her with money, one hundred thousand taels..."

Sang Ning had just mentioned the 100,000 taels when Emperor Shen Huaian quickly got the message, fearing that Sang Ning might make other changes.

"Yes, yes, yes, one hundred thousand taels of silver... Then use money to offset it..."

Sang Ning curled his lips and thought, how come you are so good at talking?

"Father, I am not talking about 100,000 taels of silver, but 100,000 taels of gold..."

When Sang Ning said these words, everyone present opened their mouths in surprise. This is really a lion's mouth! One hundred thousand taels of gold. Emperor Shen Huaian thought, this one hundred thousand taels of gold can give me half of the national treasury.

Sangjie laughed secretly. His daughter was really asking for too much. One hundred thousand taels of gold. However, with the Lin family, they could afford one hundred thousand taels of gold.

Emperor Shen Huaian said somewhat awkwardly, "This one hundred thousand taels of gold is a bit..."

"Father, do you think that one hundred thousand taels of gold is too much for me? Actually, I don't want much. Let me tell you..."

"The Lin family's businesses are mainly pawnshops and silk. Prime Minister Lin... let me take your two businesses as an example. Silk... take the one you are wearing for example. What you are wearing today is not an official uniform, but one made in Suzhou. The one you are wearing is manufactured and sold every year. The profit every year is at least 50,000 taels of gold. Add to that the business of your pawnshop, which eats all the profits. How much money can you make in a year? I don't need to say too much here... So I asked for 100,000 taels of gold, which is at most your annual income."

"Master Lin... do you think I want too much?" Sang Ning looked at Master Lin in front of him with a half-smile.

Lin Ying was very uneasy. He wondered how this woman knew how much profit his family made every year. The 100,000 taels of gold he wanted today was his annual income. His family's income was top secret, except for himself, his wife, and his housekeeper. Other people didn't know their actual income at all, how much it was in a year, so how did she know his income before the New Year?

That's too scary? Does he have spies in my business? After all, the Sang family is also doing business, although the main business has no conflict with them. But after all, they are all businesses, and the competitiveness is also very fierce.

"Okay... I agree, but I can't produce so much gold right now... Can you give me three days? I will prepare it and send it to the Regent's Palace..."

"Okay... Prime Minister Lin... you must keep your word. Don't pretend nothing happened. The emperor is here too. You are saying this in front of him. If you can't come up with so much gold in three days, then you are deceiving the emperor. Deceiving the emperor is a crime punishable by the extermination of all nine generations of your clan..."

Lin Ying had never been threatened like this before, and by a woman. He suppressed his anger and said, "Your Highness, you won't do that. One hundred thousand taels of gold is one hundred thousand taels of gold. Since I have said it, I will definitely send it to your Regent Palace in three days. Your Highness, rest assured..."

"Okay... That's it. Lin Ying, remember what you said. And Crown Princess Lin Yao, from today on, you will be confined to the Crown Prince's Mansion. You must not leave unless necessary... I hope you can keep your mouth shut about what happened today. I don't want this to spread outside the palace and become gossip for the people outside..."

"I obey your order..." the six people agreed.

Emperor Shen Huaian was in a good mood today, but after this incident, his mood was gone. So he chatted for a few more minutes and then went back to his bedroom to rest.

Lin Yao had never expected what happened today. In her eyes, the Regent Princess was a very weak person. Even if others bullied her, she would always keep peace. She didn't expect that she would be like this today. She made the prince lose face today, and more importantly, made her father lose 100,000 taels of gold today. That was 100,000 taels of gold.

Su Dieyi said she had changed, but she didn't expect her change to be so great. She must take revenge for what happened today. This matter cannot be left unresolved. Sang Ning... we have settled this grudge.

Prince Shen Lang watched Lin Yao's performance today, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became. When he got outside, he stretched out his hand and slapped Lin Yao twice.

"You bitch... Why did I marry a woman like you? You cause trouble for me everywhere, and made me lose face in front of so many people today. You should act as if nothing happened. If it weren't for your father's wealth, I would marry you. Let me tell you, you also heard what the emperor said. From today on, you are confined to the prince's mansion. In the future, you'd better behave yourself in the prince's mansion, otherwise don't blame me for divorcing you."

Prince Shen Lang got on the carriage angrily and left directly, leaving the Crown Princess aside without paying any attention. Lin Yao wanted to explain something, but Shen Yan ran too fast and didn't give her a chance to explain.

At this time, Sang Ning and Regent Shen Yan also arrived at the place where the carriage was parked. Lin Yao turned around and saw Sang Ning, who deliberately made an unfriendly gesture.

Lin Yao ran a few steps and came to Sang Ning and yelled, "Sang Ning... did you say those words on purpose today? Did you say those words on purpose to anger me? So that those people came forward to watch, you have such a vicious mind, I didn't know that your mind was so heavy..."

"Sang Ning... the real show is about to begin. I will become your rival in the future. As long as I am the Crown Princess, I will not let you have an easy life. I will definitely get it back with interest..."

"Lin Yao... this is the day I've been looking forward to, but what I want to tell you is that you couldn't beat me in your last life, and the same is true in this life. You'll never be able to beat me in this life. You'd better hold back your edge, otherwise when the time comes, not only will you not be able to become the Crown Princess, but the Crown Prince in your family will also be deposed. As long as you don't regret it when the time comes..." Sang Ning said, looking at the other person proudly.

"You...what do you mean I couldn't beat you in my last life? What are you talking about? I tell you, Sang Ning, this world will belong to the prince sooner or later, and I will be the queen then. We will see who will be the winner then. I will make your whole family be buried with me. Don't you like to implicate your entire clan? Then you can just wait for your entire clan to be buried with you..." It was already midnight, and Lin Yao's voice was very loud. The surroundings were very quiet, but his voice was heard clearly by the officials guarding the city.

After saying this, Lin Yao left.
