Mu Er thought for a moment and asked, "Then why didn't you see the account books of Taoyao Pavilion last night?"

Lan Xue didn't seem to expect the princess to suddenly ask this, she was stunned, and then explained: "This is what the prince meant, after all, Taoyao Pavilion is a green building, and all he earns is some fat powder silver, if the palace uses this silver, I am afraid it will not be very decent." And it is impossible for Taoyao Pavilion to redeem themselves from mothers to girls, so that they earn more and spend more, so the accounts of Taoyao Pavilion are all managed by themselves, and they will be successful if they don't mess up. ”

Lin Mu'er nodded, but she didn't expect that this King of Jin was quite humane, so he wouldn't treat these girls harshly.

"Alright, let's get out." Lin Mu'er took the handkerchief in Xie's mother's hand, wiped the corners of her mouth and said.

Hongxing stepped forward to clean up, Lin Mu'er frowned, and asked, "Where is the green orange?"

Mother Xie brought a glass of water over and said, "The child's temper will be in the room!"

Lin Mu'er was a little funny: "Isn't it that my master can't talk about her?" Actually got a tantrum? ”

"Miss, don't be angry." Hongxing on the side was afraid that Lin Mu'er would be unhappy, so she hurriedly explained: "Qingcheng, she didn't have a temper with you, she just felt that it was not okay to compensate Qinglou's mother, and she couldn't save face."

Lin Mu'er sighed slightly, that's right, although the girls in Taoyao Pavilion are all involuntarily, but in the end, they have also fallen into the dust, not to mention ordinary people, even the subordinates, I am afraid that they are very contemptuous. Lin Mu'er sighed lightly: "That's it, Hongxing, send her a bowl of peach gum bird's nest, the palace is not as good as the Hou Mansion, everything needs to be cautious and proper, sometimes I say the wrong thing and do the wrong thing, I may not be able to protect her."

Lin Mu'er's tone was light, but Hongxing was shocked when she heard it, and nodded: "Don't worry, the slave will persuade Qingcheng well."

Lin Mu'er nodded, and at this point, they thought about the rest.

"Mother, do you want to rest for a while?" Lan Xue asked.

"No need, let Mother Cao come over." Lin Mu'er rubbed her temples, her body was not very good, and her head began to hurt after a busy morning.

Mother Xie, who was tidying up the small study on the side, heard it, put down the things in her hand, walked a few steps quickly, and hurriedly stopped: "Miss, it's not proper!" ”

"Huh? Inappropriate? Lin Mu'er looked at Mother Xie with some confusion: "What's wrong?"

"It's... Although this Cao's mother is the steward of the palace, she is still the mother of the Qinglou in the end. Mother Xie pondered it and said: "Now, it is her great blessing to leave her to eat in the house, how can she still be allowed to come to the inner courtyard, especially the master's bedroom, if this is spread out, it will damage the reputation of the mother, absolutely not!"

Lin Mu'er frowned and thought about it, Mother Xie's words were quite reasonable, "Then where does Mother think it would be better to see her?" ”

"This ......" Mother Xie also made a mistake for a while, and she was really not familiar with this Jin Palace.

"Why don't you just go to the garden?" Lan Xue on the side said: "There is a big pond in the garden, the lotus flowers are blooming just right, there is a distant pavilion there, Niangniang can not only appreciate the lotus, but also will not let people pick on it, let alone spread any gossip, Niangniang, do you think it is good?"

As soon as Lin Mu'er heard that she could go to see the lotus, her eyes lit up instantly: "Yes, what about Mother Xie?"

"Well, it's still Miss Lanxue's idea." Mother Xie also nodded in agreement.

"Then it's settled, let's go." Lin Mu'er was a little impatient to go to the garden.

Mother Xie looked at the impatient Lin Mu'er, and said a little funny: "Okay, I'll ask someone to clean up, Miss, don't worry, just finished eating, be careful and hurry."

"It's okay, I'll walk slowly and take a look at the scenery in the garden." Lin Mu'er's face was excited.

Lan Xue on the side heard Lin Mu'er say this, her face suddenly became a little strange, and she wanted to say something, but when she saw the princess's face full of excitement, she endured it again.

Mother Xie saw that Lin Mu'er couldn't wait to go out, so she had no choice but to follow behind.

Weiyueju is very close to the garden, through a flower corridor, into the garden, Lin Mu'er looked at it with interest, in the end, it is the palace, this rockery is layered, I am afraid that it is more than twice as big as an ordinary rockery, this tree is also thick and powerful, this ...... Lin Mu'er looked at it, her brows furrowed unconsciously, and Lan Xue on the side silently observed Lin Mu'er, seeing that she was frowning, and her face also showed a trace of embarrassment.

The more Lin Mu'er walked in, the more he couldn't believe his eyes, although the garden was well maintained, but these flowers and plants were too ordinary, just like the flowers and plants in the courtyard of ordinary people's homes, which did not match the style of this palace at all, these rockery trees were too casual, so he couldn't help asking: "Lan Xue, how can the garden of this palace be so... So easy? ”

Although Lan Xue was embarrassed, she still said helplessly: "Don't hide it from Niangniang, the prince used to be away for a long time, and this palace couldn't live for a few days, and there was no master in the palace, and no one came to the garden, so this garden was planted with some flowers and plants that were easy to feed, and even the flowers in the flower gallery over there were purchased from outside for the wedding."

Lin Mu'er was stunned, this is too perfunctory! But it's relieved, the master is not in the house, who will plant some precious flowers and plants for to see: "Is the lotus planted in the pond also because it is easy to feed?" ”

"Not really." Lan Xue shook her head: "Because the prince likes lotus flowers more, different varieties of lotus flowers are raised in various pools in the palace."

"I guess there is also a reason for being easy to feed, if it is difficult to feed, your prince is afraid that he will not have the heart to plant lotus." Lin Mu'er said jokingly.

"Yes!" Lan Xue looked at Lin Mu'er with a smile on her face, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, although the princess was her master, but she was a few years older than her master, and she thought about it a lot, seeing Lin Mu'er talking about the prince so lightly, as if she didn't care about her widow's identity, Lan Xue was still a little distressed.

"Let's go!" Lin Mu'er smiled and said, "The days will be long in the future, let's take care of this garden slowly!" ”

"Yes! Such a good garden cannot be wasted. Mother Xie on the side also smiled and agreed.

Lan Xue couldn't help but nod heavily, the days are still long, take your time!

Since there is no special scenery, the group also walked quickly to the Yuanguan Pavilion, the people have already passed by to clean and arrange, but it is also very simple, a stone table, a pot of tea is brewed on it, next to it is a few stone benches, on which there are embroidered cushions. The pavilion built by the water, next to it is the blue cascading lotus leaves, the pink lotus flowers are dotted among them, and they are open vigorously, which only makes people feel comfortable at a glance, forget their worries and sorrows.

Mother Cao of Taoyao Pavilion was already waiting outside the pavilion, Lin Mu'er saw that she was wearing a long pink dress, looking graceful, although she didn't wear much jewelry in her hair, but it could be seen that she was also well-dressed, simple and not tacky, but when she looked closely, she found that there seemed to be more powder on her face, and she still couldn't suppress a little crow's feet at the corners of her eyes. But in the end, she is a beauty, even if she goes to that station, it makes people feel pity and cannot be ignored. Lin Mu'er sighed in her heart: In the end, it is the origin of Miss Eunuch, even if she is in the dust, the temperament of everyone's ladies cultivated since childhood is still inadvertently revealed, thinking about it, it is much more eye-catching than those ordinary Qinglou mothers.

Lin Mu'er sat down and nodded towards Lan Xue: Let her in. ”

Lan Xue was blessed and said, "Mother Cao, come and talk back." ”

When Mother Cao heard Lan Xue call her, she quickly straightened her clothes, and pulled the bun around her ears as she walked, and then walked to Lin Mu'er bowed her head and saluted: "Concubine to the princess Niangniang to say goodbye." ”

"Get up!"

"Thank you, princess!"

The rules are not bad at all, respectful and polite, and the advance and retreat are appropriate, Lin Mu'er nodded secretly, and she had a good impression of Cao's mother in her heart.

"What was going on in the council chamber before, let's talk about it now." Lin Muer said.

As soon as she heard this, Cao's mother immediately had a sad face, and a pair of beautiful eyes were about to cry, "The concubine shouldn't have bothered the mother with this kind of thing, but the concubine really has no way, so she has to ......."

"Let's talk about it." Lin Mu'er frowned and signaled, Mother Cao's style, Lin Mu'er didn't like it very much.

Cao's mother tucked away the tears in the corners of her eyes, blessed and blessed, and then continued: "A few days ago, Wang Qing, the eldest son of the Wang Shilang family of the Ministry of Rites, was drunk and made trouble in Taoyao Pavilion, and he had to take the Jinyu girl out for the night, but although we are Qinglou, we are selling our art and not selling our bodies, and Jinyu is not obeying, so the eldest prince of Wang actually broke Jinyu's leg..."Cao's mother choked up a little, eased down, and continued: "Originally, we people, like duckweed, and have no support, were just beaten, and we swallowed the bitter water and slowly raised it, but, Yesterday, the eldest prince came again, and asked Jinyu to accompany him by name, Jinyu had no choice but to go, who knows, who knows......" Cao's mother couldn't say it anymore, her tears couldn't stop falling, and her hands holding the handkerchief trembled a little.

"What happened to him?" Lin Mu'er frowned, and she was a little angry in her heart.

"He wants to have bad intentions again, where is Jinyu willing to obey him, the prince Wang is ashamed and angry... actually stripped Jinyu of the essence and threw it from the wing room on the second floor to the hall on the first floor...... "Cao's mother couldn't cry.

"Ahh This...! Lan Xue on the side also opened her mouth wide in shock.

"How can it be!" Lin Mu'er was also angry, there was such a vicious person! Although the girl in the Moyokan is a geisha, she should never be treated like this!

Cao's mother knelt on the ground with a "plop", and said with tears in her eyes: "Niangniang, the concubine said something disrespectful, when the prince was in the past, the concubine could still bring out the name of the prince to suppress it, but now, the concubine never dared to mention the princess Niangniang, I was really afraid of insulting the reputation of the mother!"

"Hurry up!" Lin Mu'er looked at Cao's mother who was crying to the ground, and couldn't help but feel sad, although Taoyao Pavilion is also a royal property, but after all, she is also a woman in the inner house, a serious princess, if she is hung up by Qinglou's mother, it really pulls her identity and insults her reputation, and others don't know how to laugh at Jin Wangfu!

Mother Cao sobbed and stood up, her beautiful eyes were already red and swollen, and Lin Mu'er sighed slightly: "What happened to the Jinyu girl now?"

As soon as she asked this, Cao's mother's originally stopped tears began to fall again: "Jinyu was thrown down from the second floor, and the doctor said that he was afraid that he would hurt his internal organs, and even if he was raised in the future, he would be a sick seedling!" Niangniang, a woman in the Qinglou, the concubine should not talk about innocence, but in the end, we are not selling our bodies, how can we withstand such humiliation? This will, Jinyu is bent on death, and he can't drink any medicine......"
