In the royal mansion, the maid wearing a coarse linen shirt led Qiu Moli and the three of them to turn around in Wang Dazhui's mansion several times, and Wang Dazhu, who was said to come back soon, has not even appeared yet, fortunately, the three of them are patient to see what tricks Wang Dazhui is playing.

"This is the Loyal and Righteous Temple, which is a place to worship our ancestors of the Wang family, and our lord's frugality and simplicity have a lot to do with the ancestral teachings of our Wang family."

The maidservant stopped in a place that looked like an ancestral hall, and began to praise Qiu Moli and the three of them how good Wang Dazhui was, how thrifty, and how he shared the worries of the people, but after talking for a long time, there was still no mention of Wang Dazhui.

"But the news we heard outside is not like this, Wang Da Hammer occupies other people's wives and daughters, deducts workers' wages, and constantly increases the land rent of farmers." The outspoken star picked up the star and directly said the news he inquired about, regardless of whether his words would cause displeasure to the people of the royal house.

"That's definitely jealousy, the emperor is above, my lord has been frugal and kind all his life, and those people have nothing to do all day long, so they know that slandering my lord, general, madam, you have to make decisions for my lord......"

While the servant girl spoke, she put it on the body of the picker, but fortunately, at this time, Qiu Moli reacted quickly, and with a flick of the long sword in her hand, the blade arrived in front of the servant girl.

"The general and his wife don't like people to be too close to them, so please respect yourself."

When Qiu Mo left, he deliberately left a few strands of broken hair, just enough to cover his eyes, coupled with a black dress, the breath of the living who were not allowed to enter all over his body really played a role, and the maid was immediately frightened and took a few steps back.

"Hasn't Wang Dazhui come back yet?" Qiu Moli said coldly to the maidservant.

"Childe, just wait, master, master will be back soon." The handmaid replied unhurriedly.

"You said that your lord went out, so do you know when your lord went out and when he returned?" Qiu Moli asked again.

"The old man went to the east of the city, saying that he would return home at noon, and he should be back at the time, whether the general, the lady and the son should go to the wing room to rest first, and then have lunch, maybe the old man will come back." The little maid was blessed and said to the three of them apologetically.

"What a big dog guts, you dare to let the general and his wife wait, but you know that the general is born, even King Zhang and King Chen are a little jealous, I think this king sledgehammer is tired." Qiu Moli suddenly became angry, and in an instant, he frightened the little maid to her knees.

"The general spares his life, the lady spares his life, the slave and maid really don't know when the master will come back, the slave and maid will send someone to invite the master ......"

"Grunt" Suddenly, an inopportune voice sounded.

Picking up stars looked at his stomach embarrassedly, but thinking that he was playing Xuan Zixu at the moment, he couldn't be weaker in momentum, so he shouted arrogantly at the kneeling maid. "General Ben is hungry, so don't serve wine and food quickly."

Qiu Moli choked on a mouthful of old blood in his throat, he couldn't swallow it, he didn't vomit it, and in the end, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he gave Qiu Moli a comforting look.

"Yes, the slave will go and prepare, and a few of them will wait in the dining room first." As soon as the maidservant heard that she was hungry, she immediately got up and went to prepare food for the three of them.

As soon as the maidservant left, Xingxing left the mouth with a dog-legged face to Qiu Mo beside him. "Madam, this palace doesn't seem to be what the outside world rumores."

"I'm not blind." Qiu Mo replied angrily.

"Madam" pouted, obviously dissatisfied with Qiu Moli's attitude.

"Tell me any more, Mrs. Ben threw you into the moat to feed the fish." Qiu Moli glared fiercely at Xingxing, and walked towards the dining room alone.

"Madame......" Pick Star called again.

Instead, Pick Moon stepped forward and patted Xingxing's shoulder, signaling her not to be angry.

Qiu Moli closed his eyes, mobilized the internal force of his whole body to perceive the surroundings, and after realizing that there were eyes in the dark, he withdrew his consciousness.

Who said that the mansion of this king sledgehammer is not suspicious? is obviously a rich man, but he came to cry poor for her, since this is the case, then don't blame her.

"General, lady, son, please have tea." The maid held two cups of tea and politely handed them to the star picker and the moon.

It can be seen that the teacup is some years old, and there is a layer of yellow tea dirt on it, and when you open the cup, you can see a few wisps of tea leaves floating in the teacup that have not yet melted.

"What do you mean by that?" Qiu Moli sneered at the servant girl who led the way.

"Childe, it's no wonder that the slave maid, this year's harvest is not good, how much rice has been confiscated in the field, and the court has asked to pay a lot of taxes, and this palace is about to be uncovered."

At the same time as the maid spoke, the kitchen had already been served, three green vegetables, it didn't seem to have a trace of oil stars, from the moment she entered the door, except for more than a dozen guards at the door, there was no one else in the mansion of this king sledgehammer, and all of them conveyed a message.

Our palace is very poor, and we have no way to collect rent.

In fact, what Qiu Moli didn't know was that when Wang Dazhui came to collect rent every year, he used this trick, and Xuan Zixu was a little annoyed by him, so he simply didn't collect it.

Qiu Moli sneered and looked at the maid who was still pretending to be pitiful, and he didn't feel angry, but it was okay like this, things that were too easy to do were always not challenging.

"What's your name?" Qiu Moli said to the maid in a good temper.

"Slave Jie'er, the steward of the palace." Jie'er lowered her head, not daring to look at Qiu Moli.

In fact, she is a person who is a little afraid of Qiu Moli, and the momentum of her body is too terrifying, so that she has a kind of secrets that she will have nothing to hide in front of this person, but she has to do the things that the master explains.

"This palace is special, and women have also taken care of things." Qiu Moli smiled, and his eyes became sharper and sharper when he looked at Jie'er.

"This" Jie'er hesitated for a moment and continued to speak, "The income of the palace is too small, and I can't afford to invite too many people, so there are only so many people in total, and Jie'er is more careful, so she has won the trust of the master." ”

"What a boldness, there are more than a dozen guards at the gate of this palace, where are you talking about only so many people, if you lie again, Mrs. Ben will drag you out and cut you down and feed the dogs." Pick-up Moon scolded sharply.

Qiu Moli is brutal on weekdays, she can't learn ten points, but six points is no problem, originally Qiu Moli has been saying, she also feels inappropriate, and now she finally found a place where she can handle.

As soon as Pickyue spoke, Qiu Moli stepped aside, and with that respectful look, Pickyue almost couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

When the master rests, you speak, and when the master speaks, you retreat, this is the essence of the way of the master and servant.

Picking Yue felt that Qiu Moli had taught him a simple act.

"Madam, there is no thing, there is no slave and maid." Jie'er knelt down and began to explain again, but was pulled away by Pickyue, leaking out the smooth and round bracelet inside.

"Hetian's ink jade, a piece is hundreds of taels, and a subordinate has such a valuable bracelet on his wrist, you sue my palace for no money? And don't tell me that this is an ancestral heirloom, I remember that this is the most famous jade shop in Kyoto that only came out at the beginning of the year. ”

There is no basis for picking the moon, Qiu Moli doesn't like to go to the places that women's families like to go, so they actually see relatively few things, but who told Jie'er to do something wrong, this is not casually bluffed by the moon.

"I ......." Jie'er hurriedly broke free of her right hand from Picking Moon's hand, but Qiu Moli's long sword was already across her neck.

"Disrespectful to Madame, die!"

As soon as the white light flashed, the sword body pierced Jie'er's neck, and Jie'er was so frightened that she rolled back desperately, muttering incessantly. "It's not me, it's not me, it's the master's orders."

"Shadow Guard, stop." Picking the moon called Qiu Moli to stop, and when Qiu Moli put away the sword, he squatted down and said to the person who was trembling with fright at the moment.

"What did the master order?"

Jie'er still wanted to struggle, but Qiu Moli, who was behind Pick-Yue, picked up the long sword again and looked at Jie'er threateningly.

"Don't kill me, I say ......"
