After lunch, while the sun was just right, Shen Quehuan was in the courtyard outside the teahouse and met Yichun and others. Qi Linyu, on the other hand, wore a set of light purple home clothes, and read books and drank tea leisurely on the reclining chair in the west corner of the tea room.

There are not many first-class maids who are not married, and there are only a dozen of them. They stood in the courtyard wearing clothes of the same specification, but according to the different fields in charge of their respective fields, the colors of the clothes were also slightly different, which may also be to make it easier for the deserted prince to be identified.

In spring, summer, autumn, and winter, the four people are the highest standard slaves in the house.

Yichun is undoubtedly the eldest sister among these four people, vigorous and resolute, and she is reliable, and I am afraid that only in the palace can you find a big girl with the same level as her in the capital. One of the things that she made the slaves and maids of the Manchu Mansion happy and sincere was to "lead by example", and after nearly ten years in the house, she may only have a complaint from Qi Linyu in the dining room this morning. But everyone has weaknesses, and the family knows that Yichun is soft-hearted and cares about feelings, and if someone makes a mistake, she may have a blank face for a month, but she will not really beat people with a board.

But some people are not able to restrain their minds with a sentence of "happy and convinced", Yichun put it bluntly, losing because the skin is not thick enough to pull down that face.

Especially for Esha.

These two men entered the house together, and they were promoted at the same speed. When there was no division, Yi Xia was not appreciated, because her hypocritical temperament was really unpleasant, and Qi Linyu was a master who was away from home for ten months a year, so she was often worn small shoes in those years.

After the division of the mansion, there was no control at the top, and Yixia no longer had to live with his tail between his legs. And because she is very proficient in poetry, calligraphy and painting, she was sent to Jiayu Zhai, which Qi Linyu used to meet guests, and since then, her heart that has been oppressed for a long time has been vividly released.

Qi Linyu is an extremely protective person, as long as Yi Xia does not do anything out of line in front of outsiders, Qi Linyu will turn a blind eye to her young lady's temper when she is not annoyed. So much so that some little girls who have just entered the house can't tell who is more effective between her and Yichun. There was a deep gulf between turning a blind eye and indulging trust, and Xia thought she had taken a step forward, so she threw away the safety rope called "duty".

Yiqiu and Yixia are diametrically opposed, Yiqiu looks thin and slender, she is the doctor in the house, living in the small courtyard next to the courtyard of Bai Xingzhi's guest house, she is half an apprentice of the old miracle doctor, and she is a hard-working and hard-working slave. Not only did Shen Qihuan see her for the first time, but even many second-class maids in the house only heard of her name.

It is said that because she was timid, she broke the tea bowl in front of Qi Linyu, and was assigned to the pharmacy where she worked hard, she took medicine as her companion all day long, and it was also an acre and three points of land.

So after coming to Hehuan Courtyard, Yiqiu was nervous like running two kilometers, sweat flowed down his sideburns, and he had to wipe it with a handkerchief every once in a while.

Yi Dong and Shen Qihuan are the most familiar, those days in Handzhou were all Yi Dong taking care of her, although Yi Dong didn't know that she was Jiang Qian, but he definitely knew that she had secrets on her body, including scars and deliberately hidden martial arts routines.

Shen Qihuan stood at the bottom of the steps, she was tall, and she also had a condescending momentum when she stood together so plainly. Unlike all noble ladies, Shen Qihuan is always used to a leisurely posture when facing many people, with his hands behind his back, and he will unconsciously pace when he is serious.

Liu Erying could see that this demeanor was actually exactly the same as every time she stared at the soldiers' school drills.

Shen Qihuan thought that he was very close to the people, but he really gave everyone a strong sense of oppression, and even Yichun was respectfully half-hanging his head from beginning to end.

Shen Qihuan is a person who is accustomed to getting straight to the point, and she has only one purpose for looking for these people to come over today, so she went straight to the point as soon as she exited: "This concubine has just come, and the affairs in the house are heavy, and the concubine originally planned to ask about the affairs of the house after a few days, but yesterday Mrs. Meng came and said that the house was not able to marry at a good age because there was no master mother to preside over the middle feed, since this matter is so urgent, the concubine had to call you over today to ask." ”

Shen Qihuan paused, and saw panic on the lowered faces of Yi Chun and the others, and the few people standing behind them even looked at each other, their faces pale.

Everyone knows that there are always three fires to be burned when a new official takes office, but this first fire was so inexplicably spread by them?

Shen Quehuan's expression remained unchanged, and when they were surprised enough, and returned to their breathless and condensed voices again, Shen Quehuan continued: "This matter is not difficult, there are only three ways to choose, first, to form a relationship with the guards or servants of the Jing'an Palace......

Before she could finish speaking, many people raised their heads in a hurry, what the hell was this princess doing? How could this kind of thing be told to them in such a way?

Shen Qihuan paused for a moment, and couldn't help but slow down and explained: "This concubine has no other meaning, only shows the attitude of this concubine in this matter, this concubine has no grudges and no hatred with you, and will only do her best to help you, I hope you will also put away your suspicions and suspicions, this concubine likes to speak openly and honestly, and you will all get used to it sooner or later." ”

At the end of the words, Shen Quehuan glanced at everyone, only a few people were still hanging their heads, and everyone else had already raised their heads out of instinct, Shen Quehuan had the meaning of "discussion" in and out of words, although the words were very domineering, but they felt "respect".

Shen Que said happily: "The first way out that the concubine said just now, I think you must have understood, first of all, the concubine will let everyone in the mansion who has reached the marriageable age to make a roster, and secondly, she will assign the housekeeper mother in the house to be responsible for this matter, and find the most suitable husband for everyone after consulting the opinions of both men and women." In addition," she said this, her speed of speech slowed down again, and in a very cautious tone, she continued: "If the husband and wife are slaves in the Jing'an Palace, the concubine promises that the children born can be separated from the slave status, and the acres of land can be added to the agricultural register, and the imperial examination can be conscripted, and those who are willing to stay in the palace can go to the shop to learn to work." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar, and even Fu Zhan, who was waiting for Qi Linyu to drink tea in the house, couldn't help but glance at the prince's face.

The prince was just reading a book, as if he was not aware of what was going on outside.

Fu Zhan thought: Freedom from slavery? This is unheard of in any princely meritorious family in Dayue Kingdom, loyal servants are often world servants, the whole family is tied together, it often takes decades of hard work to cultivate world servants, and the heritage of the house is also deeply related to these generations of loyal servants.

The discussion outside the house was a little chaotic, and then I heard Zhen's mother's voice: "Princess, the old slave trespassed, I don't know about breaking away from the slave family, does the prince agree?"

Zhen's mother is a cautious person, and even her tone is a little out of tune, so you can imagine how unbelievable this idea is.

I heard Shen Qihuan say undoubtedly: "In this matter, this concubine can make the decision for the prince." ”
