Chapter 145 - 143 Is He, Lu Ying, Not a Real Man Anymore?!
Yin Yang received the silver note, grinning so widely that the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes deepened. "Rest assured, I’ll do everything in my power to handle this matter!"
Yin Shanshan beamed with pride. "Big Brother, you’re truly capable. Even the Crown Prince listens to you. Once His Highness ascends the throne and becomes emperor, you’ll undoubtedly be appointed Prime Minister!"
Shen Yinning couldn’t help herself and let out a chuckle.
Appointed Prime Minister?
An ordinary sedan-bearer, whom Lu Ying doesn’t even know—on what grounds would he be appointed?
"What are you laughing at?!" Yin Shanshan snapped, glaring at her irritably. "I mean it—usually you’re not good for anything, and now you can’t even handle this trivial matter concerning Sister Yun. How can you still have the face to laugh?"
"Exactly," Gao Yun chimed in. "In my opinion, my elder brother should make Sister Shan the legitimate wife and reduce you to a concubine! After all, you’re nothing more than the daughter of a disgraced minister, unworthy of comparison to Sister Shan in terms of family background, intellect, or even virtuous behavior! You’ve contributed nothing to the Royal Merchant venture—I truly don’t know what purpose you serve! Let me be clear: if, in the future, my husband becomes the Royal Merchant and earns a fortune, we won’t spare you a single copper coin, so don’t even think about it!"
Shen Yinning subdued the corners of her lips from tilting upward.
Become the Royal Merchant and earn a fortune?
She estimated that Yin Yang would blow that three thousand taels of patterned silver at the gambling den tonight.
