Hong He glanced at the lotus pond, full of disgust, turned his head and looked at Xie Changye with a weak look.

"Lord, we ......"

"Well, if you don't want to, forget it." Xie Changye sighed, "It seems that you said that you want to serve this king, but you are all hypocritical, and you are unwilling to do such a trivial matter, how can this king stay by your side to serve." ”

Honghe chuckled in his heart, and quickly glanced at each other with Fuliu.

Could it be that the Seventh Prince asked them to dig lotus root to test whether they really wanted to serve?

Thinking of this, Hong He gritted his teeth and immediately spoke: "Lord Wang, Hong He is willing, let alone digging lotus roots, the prince can do whatever I want." ”

As he spoke, Honghe also gave Xie Changye a wink.

The corners of Xie Changye's mouth twitched, and goosebumps instantly appeared on his arms.

Although this Honghe's appearance is indeed okay, it is really not the type she likes.

With a light cough, Xie Changye looked at the others again, "What about you?" ”

Fu Liu also hurriedly spoke: "Yes, for the sake of the prince, we are willing to do anything." ”

Several other people, except for Lin Zhou, were all led by Honghe and Fuliu, and now they naturally all said they were willing.

Only Lin Zhou stood there, not saying a word from beginning to end, although he changed into a coarse cloth shirt, but it was difficult to hide the cold air between his eyebrows.

Xie Changye glanced at Lin Zhou, "What about you?" ”

Lin Zhou was silent for a moment before he spoke, "Yes." ”

Xie Changye nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, since that's the case, the lotus root in this pool will be handed over to you, when the lotus root is dug up, when will I talk about other things." ”

"Yes, lord." Honghe and the others hurriedly got down the lotus pond and began to dig lotus roots.

Because he was sure that Xie Changye was testing them by doing this, Honghe and Fuliu dug extremely hard, and when the others saw it, they were not to be outdone, and they all threw off their arms and started working.

After Xie Changye watched the shore for a while, he returned to his yard, leaving Xiao Linzi here to continue to take care of it.

And in the afternoon, when Xie Changye was invited by Xiao Linzi, he saw that the shore was clearly divided into seven piles, piled with the lotus roots they had dug up.

"Lord Wang, I dug these up." As soon as Honghe saw Xie Changye, he immediately invited Gong to speak.

Not to be outdone, "Lord Wang, this pile was dug for you, thick and complete, you will definitely like it." ”

Xie Changye looked at the hill-like lotus root piled in front of Fu Liu, looking at these people.

At the beginning, the people who were still showy are now covered with mud one by one, and even the thick fat powder before is basically gone, and they really look like crop men in the field.

Of course, there is one exception.

Xie Changye looked at Lin Zhou, who was standing at the very edge, he was also covered in mud and was very embarrassed, but among several people, he still had a unique temperament, which made people feel the difference at a glance.

Merely...... There were only two or three broken lotus roots in front of Lin Zhou, which looked really pitiful.

"Lord Wang, that Lin Gongzi didn't know how to dig lotus root at all, but then he finally dug some up, and was snatched away by others."

Xiao Linzi lowered his voice and leaned over to Xie Changye's side to speak.

"Got it." Xie Changye responded, retracted his gaze at Lin Zhou, and looked at everyone with a smile and spoke, "Not bad, you have dug so many lotus roots, and you really didn't disappoint this king." ”

Honghe's heart was instantly overjoyed, "Lord, I don't know which of us the prince wants to serve tonight." ”

As he spoke, Hong He began to flatter Xie Changye again, but with the mud on his face, it looked weird and weird.

Fu Liu also hurriedly spoke: "Lord Wang, Fu Liu will definitely serve the prince well." ”

Xie Changye shook his head, "No need, you have worked hard today, after bathing and changing clothes, you can leave after receiving your salary." ”

Get paid and leave? Honghe and Whisk Willow looked at each other.

"Lord Wang, we are here to serve you, how can we leave the palace casually."

"There are enough people in this king's house, and I don't need you to serve. Don't worry, you have dug so many lotus roots, in addition to the wages, this king will also return the deed of sale to you. From now on, you are free. ”

Xie Changye's words made everyone stunned all of a sudden, could the Seventh Prince really return the deed of sale to them so easily?

"Lord Wang, is what you said true?" Standing beside Fu Liu, a thin man asked cautiously.

"Of course it's true, do any of you want to leave with the deed of sale now?" Xie Changye asked.

The crowd was silent, and no one spoke.

It's just that although they are all silent, everyone has different thoughts.

Some people don't believe that Xie Changye can really give a deed of sale so easily, and they are worried that this is just a test.

And Honghe and Fuliu are unwilling to just leave, after all, this is the palace, since they have already embarked on this road, it is easy to get glory and wealth.

Seeing that no one spoke, Xie Changye raised his eyebrows, "Since no one speaks, then you all have to think about it again, and this king will have to dig for a few days when he looks at the lotus root in this pool." In the past few days, if you don't want to do it, you can get paid at any time, take the deed of sale and leave. ”

After speaking, looking at the people with complicated expressions, Xie Changye hooked the corners of his mouth again, and deliberately raised his voice to speak: "Come on, you are the best royal palace lotus digging team!" ”

Xie Changye said that he didn't want anyone to serve, so even if it was Honghe and Fuliu, he didn't dare to bother rashly.

In the next two days, the seven of them didn't even see Xie Changye's face, but continued to dig lotus root under Xiao Linzi's arrangement.

In addition to making lotus root chips, Xie Changye also ordered the kitchen to be made into lotus root powder, and there was really no way to deal with it, so he took it to the street to sell it to the vegetable vendors.

On the third day, someone finally couldn't help it, and mustered up the courage to say that he wanted to leave, and Xie Changye was also very generous to let people give the silver, repay the deed of sale, and send people away.

Someone started this, and several other people were also moved at once, and they received silver and deed of sale one after another and left the house.

After a few days, there were only three people left in the palace: Honghe, Fuliu, and Lin Zhou.

It's just that what Xie Changye didn't expect was that the news in the imperial city that the Seven Kings' Mansion had received male pets had already spread.

In addition, in the past two days, those male pets have left the Seven Kings Mansion one by one, and everyone who left has a vain foot, with an exhausted face, as if their bodies have been hollowed out.

Suddenly, rumors spread in the imperial city, and there was even news that the seven princes were counting men at night, and the dragon was fierce and fierce, squeezing out the male pets, and then driving them out of the house.

The Royal Palace, in the Imperial Study.

Sui Feng hesitated for a long time, and finally reported these rumors in the imperial city to Xie Wuyi......
