Chapter 347: Whoever had the worst luck would be the unlucky ones

Xiao Hanzheng was also the first to know about this matter.

After he returned, he told Shi Qingluo about it.

Shi Qingluo leaned against the sofa. "I'm afraid that your scumbag father went to the northern border with a task on hand."

Xiao Hanzheng said in a low voice, "The emperor probably wants him to restrain King Jin and find the treasure. But this is not so easy to accomplish. It depends on my scumbag father's performance."

Shi Qingluo thought for a moment and asked, "Will your father be persuaded by King Jin and betray the emperor?"

Xiao Hanzheng thought for a moment and said, "That's hard to say. According to my father's character, he wouldn't do such a thing unless he had no other choice. After all, the possibility of King Jin's rebellion succeeding isn't very high."

After the emperor ascended to the throne, his influence over the northern border wasn't actually weak.

At most King Jin didn't know about it.

Of course, it was also unlikely that his scumbag father knew about it.

Shi Qingluo nodded. "Your scumbag father's trip to the northern border will be very lively. It's about time to let Ge Chunru know who really caused her brother's death."

Xiao Hanzheng chuckled. "I think so too. This time, we extorted 50,000 taels of silver. After my scumbag father went to the northern border, his finances will be rather tight. Some things might not be so easy to carry out."

Shi Qingluo curled her lips. "Serves him right. Who asked him to be such a scumbag?"

"Ge Chunying must have a lot of resentment in her heart for spitting out 20,000 taels of silver."

He heard that if there was a backyard with many women, regardless of whether a woman was favored or not, her expenses were not small.

If she was favored, she had to spend money to win the hearts of others.

If she was not favored, she had to spend money to make her life easier.

At that moment, she heard that Ge Chunying was quite favored.

At first, she thought that the second prince had a unique taste and really liked Ge Chunying.

But that day, when they had dinner together and she and the others mocked Ge Chunying, the second prince didn't get angry.

It didn't seem like it.

A few days ago, she overheard Qi Yiyang say that Ge Chunying wanted to scheme against the second prince, so the second prince deliberately spoiled her.

His goal was to roast Ge Chunying on the fire.

If she was too pampered in the backyard, she would definitely be targeted by other women.

Only then did Shi Qingluo realize that it was possible for a man to do this when he wanted to clean up a woman in the backyard.

Xiao Hanzheng said, "He must have a lot of resentment in his heart. Those from the second prince's residence sent a message over. Ge Chunying only sobbed to Ge Chunru about how difficult it was in the backyard of the second prince's residence. The expenses were also extraordinarily high. Then, she deliberately let a servant girl pawn some things in front of Ge Chunru to consolidate 20,000 taels of silver to give her. Ge Chunru felt sorry for her, so she added that when she returned to the northern border, she would gather the money as soon as possible and get someone to send it to Ge Chunying."
