All these years, Bai had been coveting the dowry his mother had left for him.
Fortunately, he had mastered the art of poison and martial arts, and relied on himself to protect those valuables. Otherwise, Bai would have stolen them long ago.
"Young Master Su, what are you saying?" Bai was flustered and hurriedly looked at Su Ming. "Lord, listen to what he's saying. How could he say such disgraceful things? He even wants to split the family assets. Has he grown up? I don't agree with splitting! Also, the princess and we are family. All of her dowry belongs to the Su family. What's wrong with sharing it? "
If they really split the family assets, she wouldn't get any benefits.
Young Master Su's mother had also left him many valuables.
Now that Young Master Su and Princess Royal were filthy rich, she didn't want to split the family assets with them.
"That's enough. Shut up!" Su Ming's expression was gloomy as he glared at Bai. "You may be shameless, but this official still wants to be shameless! Our Su family doesn't lack money, and we won't covet our daughter-in-law's dowry. The princess's dowry will be safeguarded by her. You're not allowed to meddle. Otherwise, what will happen if word gets out? "
At that time, people would say that the dignified Duke Zhongyong's Mansion coveted his daughter-in-law's dowry!
He glanced at Young Master Su. "And you, don't talk about splitting the family assets in the future. You're the heir of the Su family. How can you act so recklessly? "
Young Master Su calmly turned his face away and looked into the distance, ignoring Su Ming.
Bai still wanted to say something, but when he saw Su Ming's gloomy face, he could only shut his mouth resentfully.
She was very disappointed.
Princess Royal had brought so much dowry that she'd heard that it wouldn't even fit in a few rooms. She'd wanted to find an excuse to take all of it for her son's marriage and her daughter's dowry.
Unexpectedly, she didn't get a single thing. She was so angry.
She glanced at Princess Royal with a sinister look. Just wait, she'll keep these things for the time being.
One day, she would definitely think of a way to seize this wealth.
She didn't believe that a woman like Princess Royal could win against the Su family.
The dowry would be hers sooner or later.

"Master, The Emperor of Li's Estate's Lieutenant Mo has arrived." At this moment, the Su Estate's housekeeper hurriedly ran in to report.
Su Ming narrowed his eyes. "What is he doing here?"
"He brought twenty guards and twenty maids with him. He said that they are the dowry that His Highness The Emperor of Li gave to the princess," the butler said.
Su Ming's face immediately darkened. "Is there no one in the Su Residence who can serve the Princess?"
"Commandant Mo said that His Highness The Emperor of Li had already prepared these people. Originally, these people were supposed to be delivered yesterday, but yesterday was the princess's wedding day and there was a lot of work. His Highness was afraid that the Su Estate wouldn't have enough time to settle these people down, so he sent them today. Commandant Mo also said that according to the princess's rank, the dowry of forty people is considered small. "The butler trembled with fear as he spoke.
A trace of anger flashed through Su Ming's eyes, but it disappeared in an instant. "Have them come in."
He thought, logically speaking, Princess Royal could have brought people as her dowry.
With her rank, forty people was indeed a small amount.
Unfortunately, she was now a fallen phoenix that wasn't even comparable to a chicken.
In order to give her face, Chu Xuanchen had given her a dowry of forty people, which was considered a lot.
When Bai heard this, she almost fainted.
If Princess Royal had maids and guards to protect her, then it would be difficult for her to covet the dowry.
-
Soon, Mo Li brought these people in.
Su Ming could tell at a glance.
The twenty guards had deep appearances and intimidating auras. They didn't make a sound when they walked. It was obvious that they were experts selected from the Xuance Army.
