Lu Zhi frowned when she heard this: "Is it just the maid in the mother's room? The maid and wife in the other courtyards, everything belongs to the middle prince, has the moon silver been issued?"

Chun'er nodded: "The slave maid specially asked about this, and the maid in the lady's room said that because the master has not handed over the silver into the mansion for two months, the money and silver in the house have almost been used up, and the lady has to maintain the daily expenses first, and then issue the monthly silver, and when it is their turn, there is no silver to send."

No wonder when my father was eating, he asked about the expenses in front of so many people, he wanted to force his mother into a corner, so he could only open his mouth to himself.

He showed his wealth in the Zhuangzi of Mrs. Shilang of the Ministry of Rites, so he made his own idea!

Lu Zhi closed his eyes, his heart was desolate, what did his mother do wrong? His life was saved by his mother, and his future was bought by his mother who gave up her dowry and endured humiliation, but in the end, he ended up like this!

Qiu'er sighed and said on the side, "Miss, do we want to help Madame?"

Lu Zhi opened her eyes and frowned, and her voice was cold: "No, my mother has never spoken to me in such embarrassment, obviously because she doesn't want me to participate in it." ”

"But ......" Xia Er hesitated, "But can you just watch Madame, so embarrassed?"

Lu Zhi snorted lightly: "Since he doesn't want to hand over the silver to the Zhonggong, and since the mansion can't afford to support so many servants, why do you have to fill up such a façade?

Xia Er wanted to say something more, but Qiu'er pulled her sleeve and said, "Even if you do what Miss tells you, Miss has her own measure." ”

Xia Er finally understood, and immediately said, "Yes, the slave maid will go and inform Madame." ”

Looking at the back of Xia Er's departure, Lu Zhi squinted, she wanted to see if this matter was a big problem, whether others said that her father was immoral and incompetent, or would she say that her mother!

It didn't take long for Xia Er to come back and inform Lu Zhi that Mrs. Wu had decided to follow Lu Zhi's suggestion and start with Ming'er, reduce the number of servants in the house, and sell the servants who usually had no errands to Ya Po.

When Lu Zhi was about to rest in the evening, Xie Qing suddenly appeared and told her that he was going to retreat from tonight, and for the next period of time, Yan Yi and Wu Yi would jointly guard her safety until he left the customs.

Xie Qing has to go into retreat every year, and Lu Zhi knows about this, but in previous years, he also went into retreat, and he just informed her, and he never found anyone to protect her instead of him.

But this time, she deliberately looked for Yan Yi and Wu Yi, Lu Zhi didn't quite understand, she said to Xie Qing: "Brother Xie, is this arrangement too troublesome? You can also see, I don't need to be guarded." ”

Xie Qing smiled when he heard this: "The main reason for letting the two of them come here is not to protect you, but that I am bored and want to see some jokes." ”

Whenever it was time for the retreat, Xie Qing's temperament would always become ...... Well...... If you say something good, it's lively, and if you don't hear it well, you just love to play tricks on people and watch other people's jokes.

Obviously, letting Yan Yi and Wu Yi come this time is also one of his pleasures.

Lu Zhi naturally wouldn't stop it, she blinked and said to Xie Qing: "If something interesting happens, don't forget to tell me when Brother Xie leaves the customs." ”

Xie Qing nodded: "Don't worry, I know that you are panicked." ”

With that, one disappeared into the room.

Leaving the Lu Mansion, Xie Qing quietly appeared somewhere in Yuqing Palace, Yan Yiyan saw him coming, and immediately appeared and saluted him: "I've seen Master." ”

Xie Qing glanced at the brightly lit study and raised the corners of his lips slightly: "How is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince feeling today?"

Yan Yiyan felt that he was knowingly asking, early this morning, the news that Duan Chen went to the Lu Mansion reached the palace before lunch, His Majesty knew, and said something shameless, the queen mother knew, smashed the teacup, and said that this was a private gift.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knew, and although he didn't say anything, his mood could never be described in good words.

"It doesn't seem to be good. The corners of Xie Qing's lips rose a little more, and he turned his eyes to Yan: "As a teacher, you will have to retreat tonight, so you can go to Lu Mansion first." ”

Yan Yi said yes and disappeared, Yan Er saw that Xie Qing had no intention of leaving, and couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Master is not going to retreat?"

"Retreat is naturally closed. Xie Qing smiled lightly and raised his feet and walked towards the study: "It's just that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't seem to be in a good mood today, so the teacher decided to go and explain it first." ”

Hearing this, Yan Er's eyebrows jumped, on weekdays, the master said to explain, and he believed it. But at this time, when the master said to explain, he didn't think it was a good thing.

But he didn't dare to stop it, and he just begged His Royal Highness the Crown Prince not to exhaust the good temper he had cultivated over the years.

Xie Qing entered the study, waved his hand to let Xiao Fuzi retreat, ignored Duan Yi's cold gaze, dragged a stool by himself, sat down beside him, and stepped forward with a smile: "I heard that His Highness doesn't seem to be in a good mood today?"

Duan Yi stepped back half a minute without a trace, and said coldly: "Why is this palace in a bad mood?"

Xie Qing didn't care about his coldness at all, and still said with a smile: "Of course, it's because my little daughter-in-law who has been waiting for seven years is going to run away with someone else." ”

Duan Yi snorted lightly: "This palace has never waited for anyone, let alone any little daughter-in-law, even if there is, it is determined by the father and the queen mother." ”

"Really?" Xie Qing raised his eyebrows: "I don't know who it is, for fear that his father and mother will promise others to him, and spread rumors by taking advantage of the falling into the water, so that the originally set crown princess has become the crown princess." ”

Duan Yi snorted coldly: "This palace just doesn't like Qiu Shiyi." ”

"Oh...... I see. Xie Qing sighed: "In this way, it seems that the old man guessed His Highness's mind wrongly, so the old man doesn't have to talk too much, and tell His Highness what the prince and Lu Zhi said today." ”

With that, he raised his eyebrows, got up with a disappointed look, and slowly walked towards the outside of the study step by step.

Seeing him walking forward at an extremely slow speed, the corners of Duan Yi's mouth twitched and twitched, and he snorted softly in the middle of the sound, and finally opened his mouth: "With a young man's face, it is really weird to keep saying how the old man is." ”

Xie Qing stopped, turned to look back at him: "No way, the old man is here." ”

Duan Yi looked at him coldly: "Since you came here on purpose, you can't let you run for nothing......"

"No, no, no, it's not for nothing. Xie Qing blinked: "I'm going to retreat, you also know that I have this problem, and I can only be relieved by the blood given by your father, and I'm just stopping by tonight." ”

Duan Yi frowned, and coldly spit out a word: "Say!"
