381: A spring night is worth a thousand gold

"The First Emperor Your Majesty!

The eldest legitimate son, Supervisor of the Great Wall Legion, Young Master Fusu!

Presents a supreme quality jade pendant!"

"General General Meng Tian presents a supreme quality treasured sword!"

"Deputy Commander of the Great Qin Great Wall Legion, Titled General, Marquis of Wucheng, Lord Wang Li!

Presents one hundred taels of gold!"

This string of astonishing names directly silenced the entire Earls Mansion!

"Lord Cui San, who did he just say sent it?"

"Your Majesty!" Lord Cui San was filled with terror, almost choking and passing out!

"Lord Cui San, you're confused! That's His Majesty's eldest legitimate son, Young Master Fusu!" Someone at the same table, having recovered, said with a light laugh.

Young Master Fusu?

But even for ordinary people like them, this was shocking enough!

"What confusion! How can you speak like that!" Hong Er glared at the person and said, "His Majesty's eldest legitimate son, won't he be His Majesty in the future? What Lord Cui San said is not wrong!"

"Heh heh, you are right." The person chuckled dryly, not refuting.

He had no particular thoughts about the old man; as the saying goes, no desire means no demands. Even if the old man was the mayor of the next town over, it had nothing to do with him, so he spoke without any burden. But Hong Er was the richest man in this town, with two herbal medicine shops under his name. In the future, if he had a headache or fever, he would inevitably have to deal with him, so he could only chuckle dryly.

"What did Young Master Fusu send?" Another person at the table quickly interjected when they saw the situation.

"Yeah, what did they say next?" Gou Shengzi also asked, somewhat bewildered.

"Didn't hear it." Hong Er also shook his head, then asked someone nearby, "Did you hear it?"

Everyone shook their heads.

"Although I didn't hear what was sent, can what Young Master Fusu sent be worse than what General Li sent?" Hong Er's eyes darted around as he chuckled, then leaned forward and whispered, "That's the royal family!"

Everyone nodded upon hearing this. There was a point to this; could what the royal family sent be bad?

"Even if what was sent isn't as generous as General Li Chengliang's, even if Young Master Fusu sent a common qin sword, it would still be more prestigious than General Li Chengliang's. How many in the entire Great Qin have this honor?" Hong Er analyzed methodically.

"Shopkeeper Hong is right!

How many in the entire Great Qin have such imperial favor!" Another person echoed.

"Huo!" Lord Cui San slapped his thigh and burst out laughing, "I didn't expect the Earl to have such connections! Young Master Fusu, General General Meng Tian, Deputy Commander Wang Li! Now, it'll be difficult for our Fief not to become rich!"

"Haha, you are right!" Hong Er chuckled, then whispered, "Lord Cui San, you see my herbal medicine shop, in your town..."

"Good! Excellent!" Lord Cui San laughed heartily, "Come, by all means, come. These good days are coming soon, and my small town just needs a herbal medicine shop!"

"Haha!"

"Hahahaha!"

..."Heh heh." Li Chengliang heard it all clearly. General Meng Tian and Wang Li actually sent gifts?

And Young Master Fusu!

This kid could even invite Young Master Fusu?

Li Chengliang stole a glance at Lin Yue, feeling even more fortunate that he had come today.

Otherwise, he would have strayed further and further down the wrong path!

"Come, everyone, I offended you all earlier, but let's not speak of it today. Everyone, drink heartily!"

..."Wife?" Xing Daorong pushed open the door and said softly.

"Mm." Xia Lian sat on the bed, covered by a red veil, and responded softly.

"Wife." Xing Daorong tiptoed over, always feeling that everything before him was somewhat unreal.

"Mm." Xia Lian responded.

Xing Daorong tiptoed closer, a broad, thick hand unconsciously trembling, slowly approaching Xia Lian's red veil.

"Wait!"

Xia Lian suddenly knocked away Xing Daorong's hand, and Xing Daorong, startled, immediately pulled it back!

"Why did you come back so early today? Don't you need to entertain the people outside?" Xia Lian said softly.

"Haha." Xing Daorong scratched the back of his head and said, "My lord said to let me consummate the marriage as soon as possible; he'll handle things outside.

Besides, I don't know any of those people who came, so going there would be pointless anyway."

"Good." Xia Lian nodded slightly, her voice becoming even more tender.

"Heh heh." Xing Daorong chuckled, and his broad hand once again reached out.

This time, Xia Lian did not stop him, allowing Xing Daorong to slowly lift her red veil.

Until her entire face was revealed.

Her entire face looked as if it could be broken with a touch; Xia Lian's already fair skin was now made even more delicate and white by the bright red attire!

And Xia Lian's two slender hands were now silently twisting together, as if fighting, constantly wringing, and a blush spread from her neck to her cheeks.

Making her appear even more alluring and beautiful.

And Xing Daorong, gazing at Xia Lian in this state, couldn't help but be captivated.

"Wife, you are so beautiful..." Xing Daorong said, dazed, the sound of him swallowing becoming even more apparent in the room.

Hearing this, Xia Lian couldn't help but laugh.

Just as Xing Daorong was about to speak again, he heard a clear announcement from outside!

"Commandery Commandant of Liaodong Commandery... presents ten thousand taels of silver, one thousand taels of gold..."

Upon hearing this, Xia Lian stood up with a "thump"!

"Husband, is what the gift list says true?"

"It... it is, right..." Xing Daorong was also unsure at this moment, but whose wedding presents are fake!

"So much money?" Xia Lian's lively eyes were now filled with images of coins.

"It is, I guess, I don't know." Xing Daorong shook his head. His lord had already given him the congratulatory gifts from Young Master Fusu, the General, and the Deputy Commander of the Great Wall Legion earlier, and he and Pan Feng had already divided them.

As for this Li Chengliang, who knew why he came?

A weasel paying respects to a chicken has no good intentions!

Xing Daorong thought to himself.

"Wife..." Xing Daorong said softly.

"You shut up first!" Xia Lian's mind was now completely filled with those gifts. For the two sisters, who had been orphaned and lonely since childhood, this was a sudden windfall!

Looking at the beautiful night and the lovely scenery before her, the beautiful woman's thoughts had already flown away.

The two brothers in separate rooms sighed at the same time.

Then, both brothers' eyes darted, and they turned back to blow out the candles, then pounced!

"Wife, a moment of spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold..."
