Quick Transmigration: Start killing from The Legend of Zhen Huan!

Chapter 937: Dream of the Red Chamber, Lin Daiyu (100)

"So she decided to go back to their house again to collect her dowry?"

Li Siqi revealed a knowing look, "If she really marries the Prince of Xining and becomes his second wife, then she really can't be careless about the dowry."

After all, they were all long-established powerful families; if the dowry was too shabby, Jia Yuanchun and the Rongguo Mansion would both lose face.

"That's right, that's right, that's exactly it."

Xiao Huzi nodded in response, "Jia Yuanchun bowed her head and humbled herself to continue visiting the family for the sake of her dowry."

She needed to at least earn some money for her dowry.

Even a broken boat has three pounds of iron.

Li Siqi smiled calmly, "Besides, Grandmother Jia and Lady Wang have quite a few good things in their possession."

They could even scrape together a generous dowry if they wanted to.

"Master is right."

Little Pot nodded, "They just habitually complain about being poor, and they lock their good stuff in the storeroom so no one will know."

"Hmm, let's ignore these people for now."

……

This winter, Lin's shop made a fortune.

Both the Imperial Household Department and the Ministry of Works made a lot of money.

To avoid the envy of the royal family, Li Siqi sent the current emperor 500,000 taels of silver.

This amount of money sounds like a lot.

However, for Li Siqi, it was just a small fraction.

After all, her business wasn't entirely in the capital; her business in Jiangnan was also doing quite well.

Although it didn't cause as much of a stir as it did in the capital, it was still sought after by many powerful and wealthy people.

Because the Imperial Household Department was also involved in Jiangnan, Li Siqi's shop was not attacked.

Business is booming and flourishing everywhere.

Tonight is Lunar New Year's Eve.

This was the first time the Lin family had celebrated the Lunar New Year in the capital.

However, the family did not go to their own residence.

Instead, they all went to the palace to attend the palace banquet.

It has to be said that organizing such a large-scale palace banquet in such freezing weather is really exhausting.

Fortunately, Li Siqi had become a familiar face to the Empress.

So after paying respects to the Empress.

She, Xu Ruxin, and their two children were arranged to rest in a side hall.

Two-year-old Lin Dingxi is so cute that she has attracted a lot of attention.

In particular, Mingxiu and Princess Minmin came directly over.

Everyone was teasing the adorable little ones, creating a lively and joyful atmosphere.

Fortunately, the large number of people made the time pass more quickly.

There was only half an hour left before we had to go to the Ming Palace for the banquet.

Princess Minmin said to the group, "It's getting a bit boring staying here all the time. How about we go out for a walk first, and then go back to Ming Palace? What do you think?"

"sure."

Mingxiu was the first to agree.

Many people rest in this side hall.

Although it wasn't very noisy, everyone still felt a bit reserved.

Over time, one will naturally feel depressed and uncomfortable.

The others nodded in agreement and went out for a walk together.

Li Siqi naturally wouldn't refuse.

He told Xu Ruxin, "Mother, let's all go out together and come back soon."

"it is good."

Xu Ruxin nodded, "Xi'er hasn't woken up yet, I need to stay here and watch over him."

Please be careful.

I'll be right back after getting some fresh air.

"Will do."

Li Siqi agreed softly.

Then he left hand in hand with Mingxiu and the others.

As soon as I stepped out of the side hall, a cold wind blew in my face.

Everyone couldn't help but pull their cloaks tighter, saying as they walked, "Luckily, the wind isn't too strong today, otherwise we wouldn't be able to go shopping."

"good."

Cheng Shiyu responded, "The weather was pretty good, there was no strong wind or heavy snow, and although it was cold, it was still within a tolerable range."

"It was indeed a bit cold when we came out."

Princess Minmin added, "We'll warm up after we walk for a while."

"Exactly, it gets warmer as you walk around."

An Jinxin then said, "Let's go for a stroll in the plum garden in front. With the current weather, there should be quite a few plum blossoms in bloom."

"We can enjoy the plum blossoms now."

"can."

Zheng Mingzhu agreed, "Anyway, we're just wandering around aimlessly. We can go for a stroll in the plum garden and come back around the same time."

A group of people quickly headed towards the plum garden.

The Royal Plum Garden is naturally quite large.

The group of people who had just entered were immediately captivated by the various plum blossoms vying for attention.

"I didn't expect the plum blossoms to be blooming so well this year."

Princess Minmin couldn't help but exclaim in amazement when she saw the sea of ​​flowers, "Most of the plum blossoms last year were just buds, and they didn't look nearly as stunning as they do this year."

"It really is very beautiful."

As Li Siqi admired the plum blossoms, she responded, "Moreover, these plum blossoms come in several varieties: white, pink, light yellow, purplish-red, and deep red..."

They all bloom at this time, creating a truly magnificent scene.

And the delicate fragrance of plum blossoms wafts over you.

It was simply a feast for the eyes and the palate.

"That's an interesting statement!"

Suddenly, a cold, desolate voice rang out.

The women couldn't help but look over at the sound.

A group of young men walked towards us.

They were all handsome and dashing, with extraordinary bearing; needless to say, they were the most outstanding talents from various families in the capital.

The young man standing at the head of the group wore a purple robe and a jade crown, his sharp, scrutinizing gaze fixed on Li Siqi.

He then asked again, "Are you the daughter of the Duke of Jin?"

"Yes."

Li Siqi responded softly, then bowed, "This humble woman greets the Fourth Prince, and greets all the princes, heirs, and young masters."

The others also greeted him.

After all, these are all people we know.

"Why did you come to the plum garden at this time?"

The fourth prince asked with a smile, "The banquet is about to begin, are you late?"

"It's not too late!"

Princess Minmin smiled and said, "We're just here for a quick look around before heading back."

"Have you been here long?"

"We have indeed been here for some time."

The Fourth Prince's gaze swept over them. "I should have sent someone to call you over."

We can all enjoy the plum blossoms together.

"It doesn't matter."

Mingxiu smiled slightly, "We can just stroll around now."

Fourth Prince, Prince Bei Jing, you may go first; we will leave shortly.

"It's too cold, we don't want to stay outside for long."

Zheng Mingzhu responded frankly, "We're just out here getting some fresh air."

"Row."

The Fourth Prince chuckled, "We won't disturb your fresh air any longer."

We'll go first!

"Yes! Everyone, please!"

"Fourth Prince, Prince of Beijing, wait!"

"You go first, we'll be back soon!"

……

The women responded one after another, and none of them tried to stop them.

The fourth prince's expression stiffened slightly, and he didn't say anything more.

However, before leaving, his gaze lingered on Li Siqi's face for a moment, then quickly moved away.

In fact, it wasn't just him; everyone else was the same.

As he left, he glanced at her, both openly and subtly.

"Master, you've really caught their attention."

Little Pot laughed and said, "Quite a few people have this idea."

"Don't bother."

Li Siqi responded with her consciousness, "No matter what they think, or what I think, it's useless."

The current emperor can hand me over to whomever he wants.

I'm afraid no one can change his mind.
