The discovery of pepper is the biggest happy event that Liu Mingqi has encountered recently.

It even exceeded the title rewards from Emperor Jinghe to his prince, and even more than the prince's mansion he has received now.

According to the etiquette system, generally speaking, only princes can be granted the title of prince, but there are also some royal family members who have obtained special contributions who can be promoted from princes to princes.

There have been several such examples in the history of Dakang.

Once he becomes a prince, the emperor will personally give the house in the imperial city, known as the prince's mansion.

Those who will also receive the emperor's reward for the house will also be princes of the royal family, but they can only retreat to the inner city.

After the naughty child was named King of Birth, there was actually a prince's mansion in the imperial city. He should have moved out of the palace and lived there after he became an adult.

However, the naughty child had died before he had lived there, so the Shou Palace could only be vacant.

Since Taizu had many sons, there were dozens of royal palaces in the imperial city, and they were not fully occupied on weekdays.

Now that Liu Mingguan and Liu Mingqi have both been granted the title of prince, they naturally have to give it to their palace.

In order to take care of the two, Emperor Jinghe chose the Ren Mansion near the Li Mansion, while Liu Mingqi's Prince De Mansion was near the Yu Mansion.

From this point of view, it can be seen that the emperor had no idea to let one of the two princes inherit the throne.

Otherwise, they should be staying away from their biological father and living alone.

However, in terms of treatment, the palace did not deduct it, and it was arranged according to the normal prince level.

Hundreds of slaves, dozens of guards, tens of thousands of taels of gold and silver, countless porcelain, silk and satin...

Although the court has suffered a great shock and the royal family has experienced an unprecedented catastrophe, the etiquette is still the same.

But this is a little troubled for Liu Mingqi.

Liu Mingguan is already twenty-seven years old, has married and has children, and has been dating many literati and poets for a long time.

He wanted to move out of the Liwang Mansion as soon as possible and live alone.

Now he was given a prince's mansion, and he was overjoyed.

But Liu Mingqi is different.

He is still a child!

It is really awkward to leave your parents at the age of seventeen, leave your familiar Prince Yu's Mansion, and live in Prince De's Mansion hundreds of meters away.

Not to mention him, even Princess Yu couldn't bear to let go. She was snot and tears, just like sending her child to get married (!?).

However, the emperor's order cannot be violated.

The ancestral legal system stipulates that when the prince becomes an adult, he will open a yamen and build a mansion... Well, the matter of opening a yamen in Dakang is limited to the prince.

Therefore, it is impossible for the prince to live with his parents again.

Even if you go back and live often, your home must be moved out.

In a loss, Princess Yu had to arrange to divide the group of people from Liu Mingqi, and with the two hundred guards of the Yulin Guard and their family, they also went to the new Prince De Mansion.

At first glance, it's actually good. The Yu Prince's Mansion is now seriously crowded, even if it has a villa in the inner city.

Now there is an additional palace, which divides people into one-third and becomes spacious all of a sudden.

Liu Mingqi's side is almost all young people, Chi San, Dazhu, Fan Shan, Qiao Lian, Lu Ling, etc. Although they have begun to be the only one, or have become their son's personal bodyguard, they are still not stable enough.

So Tian Rong, the steward of Prince Yu's mansion, transformed into the steward of Prince De's mansion.

This change made Butler Tian laugh and cry.

Unlike the King Ren Mansion, there is no mistress in the King De Mansion.

King Ren already has Princess Ren, but Liu Mingqi only has a concubine who has not passed the door.

Grandma Huang said that when she married into Prince De's Mansion next year, she would give her the identity of a princess, which made Boss Su overjoyed.

Because she was a concubine from the beginning, she didn't even have the name of the prince's concubine.

Now he suddenly increased by two levels and became the prince's princess. This identity change is not ordinary.

Of course, Boss Su is not concerned about himself, but his future children.

With the identity of the Princess, they are at least both dukes or county lords. If Liu Mingqi's wife had no extra sons, then one of the titles of King Yu and King De would inevitably fall on her eldest son.

All right.

Boss Su has acted a lot and is fantasizing about things that are not practical.

The princess later knew that her son had two princes to inherit, so she would not have to live a desperate life?

Where is her turn?

Besides, there may be a more beautiful princess in the future. Maybe whose son can win the title of prince!

Take Qiaolian and Lu Ling next to Liu Mingqi for example. Princess Yu is standing behind the two young ladies. When choosing a title to inherit, Princess Yu's opinions can control her son!

...

Emperor Jinghe rewarded the house, and no matter how reluctant the young man had to move over.

However, the De Prince's Mansion has been cleaning these days.

After all, there has been no one inhabited for many years. Although people have to be sent to clean the palace three or five times every year, it is unmanned after all, and there is still a dark and damp smell here.

Cleaning or someone from the palace.

A large group of eunuchs and palace maids, carrying various tools, not only needed to clean up, but also repair them.

Manager Tian Da is very good at being a human being. Each of him sealed a red envelope for start-up, which contained a ten tael of silver ingot, saying that he wanted everyone to be happy.

Even people from the Censorate know about such happy money and are embarrassed to come and find fault.

The wedding money given by moving a new home is not considered a bribe.

But the eunuchs and palace maids were happy.

Many people in the palace have extra money, but many people don’t have it.

For example, who is sent to clean up, can he be a person with authority?

So they rely on a little monthly salary to live on weekdays.

The palace maids are a little better. The minimum monthly price is five taels of silver, and the female officials of the concubines are at least one or two hundred taels a year.

The eunuch Zhao Shou, the chief eunuch in charge of the palace, had a monthly salary of only 10 taels of silver, and the lowest average eunuch was only 5 cents a month!

Yes, you read that right, it's just five cents!

That is, five hundred cents.

This is stipulated by Taizu and no one can change it.

According to common sense, these eunuchs do not leave the palace on weekdays, and they have food, drink and housing. What else can they use for money?

No need to give five cents!

But in fact, eunuchs are incomplete men. Without the desire for women and power, only money can give them some comfort.

Even if a person dies, he can't take the money away, but they like to hold money on weekdays.

So this led to the eunuchs' big troubles in the court purchasing, such as a piece of soap of one or two silver ounces outside, and they could openly pay five silver ounces per piece!

Come back to your eyes.

For these eunuchs and palace maids at the bottom, the red envelope of ten taels of silver is very good, making them full of work as soon as they enter the door.

In addition to the red envelopes, Tian Rong also sent each person a set of products from Prince Yu’s Mansion, including a piece of soap, a bottle of trial floral essential oil, a roll of toilet paper, a pack of white sugar and five big white rabbit milk candies.

This is another big gift.

Even if you are outside, you can sell it for ten taels of silver, not to mention that you can't buy it many times, such as flower essential oil and white rabbit milk candy.

Then, Butler Tian said that after finishing his work, there would be such a big gift package.

You said that in this case, how could eunuchs and palace maids not work well?

Everyone didn't need anyone to urge them, and they wanted to lick the ground clean with their tongues!

...

When Liu Mingqi came over, Tian Rong was still with her.

Looking at the palace maids and eunuchs working along the way, Liu Mingqi smiled and nodded with them, which made the palace maids and eunuchs very excited.

Although the Dakang royal family had no power and could not control them, many people still looked down on these slaves.

It is rare to be approachable like Prince Yu... no, it is really rare to be approachable like Prince De.

"This Prince's Mansion is only two smaller than Prince Yu's Mansion, but there is a very good small lake, which is circulated with live water. It is very good to sit here on weekdays." Tian Rong pointed to the location to the west, and then said, "We don't have many people now, and the house is still free. I wonder if you have any arrangements, your prince?"

"Old Tian, ​​why are you so polite?" Liu Mingqi smiled, "Are we not a family if I become the prince?"

"That's not."

Tian Rong also smiled.

He also knew in his heart that this little master of his family was simple by nature and would not be arrogant after being proud.
