Chapter 470: Fueling the Flames

Now in this Qi house, in addition to the two newly sent maids, there are also the old man's family of three, plus a coachman and four nurses, there are ten subordinates.

Although in the once luxurious and noble Washington Mansion, this two-entry mansion with such a few people is really nothing, but this is also Qi Nian's own family business, and it really has a different feeling when it comes to dotting.

Qi Nian was not only fresh, but he didn't have much of a hurry to do anything else. At least that's what the two maids have sent back.

After waiting for dozens of days, she sat quietly and did not move, but something soon came to the door outside.

The person who came was still Tian Yi, who had been here before, but last time he came with a full of eagerness, this time he was full of doubts, as if he didn't want to come.

Qi Nian still saw him in the flower hall, this time he didn't let the girl serve tea, only let the one named Mingyue of the two maids serve tea.

Before Qi Nian could open her mouth to speak, Mingyue had already poured tea for Tian Yan very diligently, held it with her thin white hands, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, please use tea, this is cooked by the slave maid herself, and she is very attentive." She put down the teacup, "oops" and her eyes were already filled with mist, and she said softly and weakly: "In order to cook tea for His Royal Highness, the slave's hand was burned by the tea......"

Her snow-white hand stretched out, and sure enough, she saw that the back of her hand was burned red, which was very conspicuous.

Qi Nian lowered his eyes silently, as if he hadn't seen the scene in front of him. She thought that this girl was sending espionage information, but she didn't expect to be so breathless.

Because Qi Nian only sent them to do rough work, they had already complained behind their backs, and they were very restless. These complaints were originally only whispered in secret, but gradually they spread to the surface, and they became more and more every day.

Listening to these words, Qi Nian just thought that he hadn't heard them, but they became more and more bold, not only did they refuse to do the work assigned to them well, but they also didn't take Qi Nian seriously more and more.

That's what happened right now.

Mingyue's girl also looks quite beautiful, if this is resting on the prince's mansion, Tian Yi will naturally comfort her, and when she is in a good mood, she will reward some gold and silver jewelry or something, which is a common thing in the mansion.

As for her now being Qi Nian's subordinate, at this time, the host was entertaining, but the subordinate put the master aside and only laughed with the guests, such rules were actually taught from the prince's mansion, which really made Tian Yi feel very gloomy.

But this Mingyue is not a person who can look at people's faces, she only saw Qi Nian's wind and clouds, but she didn't see Tian Yan, who had always had a good temper, already showed impatience, and she was even more faintly angry.

Mingyue also moved her red-hot hand in front of Tian Yan's eyes, but she only heard him say in a deep voice with anger: "Okay, you can go down, I still have something to say to Miss Qi." ”

Mingyue reacted at this time, and as soon as her face burned, she hurriedly went down.

Before she could go out of the door, she only heard Qi Nian say slowly: "When Your Highness gave me the maids, it seemed that I didn't see whether they were very capable or not. ”

Tian Yi didn't expect that when they were in the Prince's Mansion, they were all smart and sensible, how could they become so unruly when they came here. He couldn't help but feel a little reluctant on his face, so he said: "It's all the king's carelessness, this matter was originally handed over to the housekeeper to do, thinking that he must be old, and he will inevitably be overlooked when he looks at people." But don't be angry, if you really feel bad, it doesn't matter if you send it out, wait another day for the king to personally choose two sensible maids to send over, that's it. ”

Qi Nian could only say dispensably: "That's it, after all, my family business here is very small, and I can't make a few subordinates." It's just that I don't want Your Highness to blame me for only sending them to do some rough work, they were originally raised like young ladies in the prince's mansion, but I was wronged here. ”

Tian Yi only smiled: "What is wronged or not wronged, but just a slave." The girl really exalted her too much, but it made her even more ignorant. ”

When the words came up, Qi Nian only smiled and poured himself a cup of tea.

Mingyue, who deliberately stayed under the corridor for a while, naturally heard all these words, and her snow-white face was suddenly full of hatred, so she only gritted her teeth and left angrily.

She originally thought that Qi Nian was just a woman that Tian Yi had taken a fancy to and brought back, but because of this humble status, it was not easy to keep her in the house, so she let her live elsewhere.

It was precisely with this idea that she dared to do such a disdainful thing after the initial temptation. She originally looked down on Qi Nian in her heart.

But it wasn't until today that she discovered that His Royal Highness's relationship with this woman was obviously not the kind of relationship she had guessed.

In this huge Nanzhao Kingdom, only Tian Yi knows what kind of noble status Qi Nian had before, and he was only a little short of being named the princess of Yipin Zhenguo and marrying him as the imperial concubine.

Sent away Mingyue, who was annoyed and angry, and secretly hated, and then they got down to business.

Tian Yi took a sip of tea first, and then said slowly: "First of all, I ask the girl not to blame the king for talking too much, which caused these incidents for the girl." ”

Qi Nian's heart was like a mirror, but he couldn't help but ask, "What did Your Highness say?" ”

"The former king of Japan entered the palace to greet his mother, and I heard that it has been raining in the past few days, but it has made her mother's old illness recur, and the pain is quite unbearable. The imperial doctor in the palace is also very useless, and he has always prescribed some tepid prescriptions for many years, which cannot cure the mother concubine at all. Yes, the king said a few more words, saying that the girl's medical skills are very good, and even the elixir that removes saprophytic muscles can be developed, and if the girl can be asked to diagnose the pulse of the concubine, I think it will definitely get better. ”

Qi Nian only looked at him quietly, knowing that his words must not have finished yet.

Sure enough, I only heard him continue: "But the palace is strictly forbidden, and the girl knows it if she wants to come." Therefore, this king can't accept the request of his mother, and wants to ask the girl first. After all, you and I are in a cooperative relationship, and this king can't force the girl to do what she doesn't want to do for his own selfish interests. ”

Although he is soft and simple by nature, he is unambiguous in terms of right and wrong.

This is also the reason why Qi Nian took a fancy to him, and he was willing to abandon the good situation in Changle City, and was willing to follow him to this Nanzhao Kingdom to start the layout again.

Qi Nian only smiled lightly: "It's my honor to be able to serve Concubine Chen. ”

Tian Yi was pleasantly surprised: "The girl is really willing?"

This is what she has single-handedly fueled, how could she not be willing.
