After Song Yi and Chunxiang talked earnestly, Song Yi became more confident in himself.

On the other side, the real king Zhu Xi continued to be busy all day until he saw no one. At the celebration banquet in the palace, the news of the Siamese princess taking the initiative to challenge the real princess has spread to the people, and the streets of Kyoto are even more popular, saying that the real king is now going in and out of the embassy all day long to have a private meeting with the Siamese princess. The news that the good things between the real king and the princess of Siam were about to spread and became the hottest topic.

"This true king, how can this be?" The proprietress of Li Kee's wonton shop came back from outside in a huff, carrying the ingredients she had just bought from the market.

"Child, mother, what's wrong with you?" Lao Li, the owner of the wonton shop, said.

"Child, father, haven't you heard, it is said outside that the real king has fallen in love with the Siamese princess and wants to marry the Siamese princess?" The proprietress put down what she was holding and looked at the sparse customers in the store. Thinking that it was not yet the Venerable Master's time, she stuck to her husband and gossiped.

"What? Didn't the real king marry the princess? Could it be that the princess of Siam is still willing to be small? Lao Li Tou said this to the proprietress while taking care of the pot on the stove.

"What nonsense are you talking about, can the princess of Siam make someone small?" The proprietress was upset when she saw that her husband was half-hearted.

"What about the real princess?" Lao Li Tou heard the dissatisfaction in his wife's tone, quickly put down the work in his hand, turned to look at his wife and said.

"I'm just worried about this matter, you say, the real princess has a big belly, how can the real king still do this?" The proprietress has a lot of complaints about the real king.

"You woman, say these things out of tune. What the true king does, can we, the common people, say? Don't talk nonsense outside, do you hear me? Old man Li lowered his voice and said to the proprietress.

The proprietress has a strong sense of justice, thinking that she is an old acquaintance with the real princess, and she can't see the real princess being bullied by the real king, "Old man, you say, last time the princess and the real king came to eat wontons, it seemed weird, could it be that the princess knew something at that time, so she was angry with the prince?" Pity our princess, who has a big belly and is bullied by the real king and the Siamese princess. I didn't expect the real prince to look like a gentleman on the surface, and he was full of flowers. I really know people and faces, but I don't know my heart. ”

"Your mouth, I think, will get into trouble sooner or later. Who are you, the real princess, and do you want you to fight for her? A person as smart as the real princess will definitely be able to think of a solution. Don't worry about others, let's put more effort into our own business. ”

Even the owner and proprietress of Li Ji's wonton shop heard the news, which shows how many people are discussing this matter in the capital.

On the other side, in the real king's mansion. Song Yi is now in the house all day long, staying at home. No one's posts are accepted. Despite this, there are still people who can't see Song Yi being idle.

The Wang family came to Song Yi every once in a while to say something sour, wanting to see Song Yi sad and angry, but Song Yi didn't do what she wanted, and didn't pay attention to her at all.

Song Yi didn't care about the affairs in the house at all, but completely handed it over to the fourth lady, Zhu Shanlei, and said to the outside world that her body was getting more and more bulky and she had no energy to take care of things.

Although Zhu Shanlei didn't say anything unpleasant in front of Song Yi, her attitude was not as cautious as in the past.

Song Yi didn't care, and Chunxiang couldn't stand it.

"Princess, look at the fourth lady's attitude towards you, where do you take your words to heart? You repeatedly urged her to distribute the silver salary of the people in the house, and she said yes on the surface, but there was no movement. No, it was a full ten days late before the money was sent. She also told others everywhere that there was no money in the account room, and it was only so many days late. When she said this, didn't she make her subordinates complain about the princess? ”

"Just send it to the next person. It's a few days late, and it's normal for someone to complain" Song Yi didn't care very much, and he didn't take it to heart.

"Princess, you arranged for the fourth lady to pay it on time, but she said that there was no money in the account and she kept procrastinating. If you hadn't pushed her repeatedly, she wouldn't have known how long it would have been delayed. She was late, and she was still a good person outside, others didn't know, and they thought that the princess was deliberately holding the silver and not giving it to her subordinates."

"Have you inquired, why is Miss Fourth late this time?" Song Yi thought about it and asked.

"Princess, the slave has inquired clearly. Recently, the second lady and the fourth lady often go to the banquets of various provinces. Every time I have to make new clothes and order new jewelry. The second lady is a good-looking person, and she doesn't like cheap things. But it's a good thing, and it's expensive. Last time, the second lady annoyed the second master, and the second master has already restricted the second lady's use. But how can the second lady, who has always spent money and spends a lot of money, treat herself badly? So he hit the idea to the money in the public school. ”

It happened that the princess asked the fourth lady to take care of the accounts during this time, and the second lady took a lot of silver from the fourth lady for her to squander. Therefore, when the wages were paid, there was not much money in the account. The fourth lady was afraid of being known, so she first gave the monthly rules of the owners of each house first, and the people's money was delayed for ten days. Some people are not in a hurry to use the silver, and they dare not say anything to it, so they wait. But some people are waiting to start work to support their families and pay off their debts, so naturally they can't wait. If for a day or two, no one said anything, and there was one before. But this time it was delayed for ten days, and it was naturally not good-looking. I heard that some people had made trouble with the old lady, and after the second lady found out, she took out her jewelry and mortgaged it, and took out the silver to make up for the shortfall."

"On weekdays, Miss Fourth is not such a person who doesn't know what to do. Unexpectedly, he was still pinched by the second lady, "This moment surprised Song Yi."

"What a trick. Princess, you don't know. The fourth lady is too shrewd, and the second lady's extravagance is one of the reasons, and it is also a reason for her to listen to people's words. The princess, those in charge of the house, are all good at spending money, and they can't wait to deduct two taels of meat from mosquitoes. ”

"Although Miss Fourth is smart, she is a little girl after all, and she is not deeply involved in the world, even if she is deceived and pays back the number of people. A few days ago, she often came to ask the princess, but now, simply, the princess is not here. The subordinates did not take the opportunity to coax her to come out with the money. The princess handed over the affairs of the palace to her for more than a month, and many projects in the palace were started in a hurry. When the slave heard that the fourth lady wanted to sell someone else, she listened to the foolishness of those stewards, and asked craftsmen to repair houses, dredge ditches, and buy furniture, and spent no money."

The more Chunxiang talked, the more angry she became, obviously she had a lot of opinions about the fourth lady, Zhu Shanlei.

Song Yi heard that Chunxiang or Zhu Shanlei didn't take her princess seriously. Take your own opinion, Chunxiang is angry with herself.

Song Yi looked at Chunxiang, who was frowning and angry, and said with a smile, "Okay, you said someone else's little girl." How old are you? She is a little girl, and she has just begun to learn housekeeping, it would be good to be able to do this, should you allow others to make mistakes?"

"Princess, aren't you only two years older than Fourth Miss? When you were in charge of the house, you also learned from scratch, didn't you also manage those who were obedient? Look at it, now the house is up and down, chickens and dogs are jumping, where is there still the grandeur of the palace? The slave maid also heard that the fourth lady said to her subordinates, 'The princess uses it to deter people, but the subordinates just dare to be angry but dare not speak.' She prefers to convince people with virtue, so that her subordinates can be convinced, 'Princess, listen.' Where is she humbly seeking advice, obviously she wants to compare the princess, so she is a bad person, and she was deceived by those who are in charge."

"Since, you know, there's no need to be angry. She can do whatever she wants, anyway, I'm not in good health right now, and I don't want to care. If something really goes wrong, the old lady will come forward."

"Princess, the slave is afraid, when the time comes, the old lady will put all the mistakes made by the fourth lady on you. You don't know, this time, the fourth lady has lost the money in the public school, and the people in the old lady's house are also half a day late, I don't know who told the old lady, the old lady has a big temper this morning."

"Oh?" Song Yi just returned, and someone outside reported, "Princess, the old lady asked you to go over"

Chunxiang had an expression of coming as soon as she said it, Song Yi smiled, went back to the house to change her clothes, and took Chunxiang to Qingsong Courtyard.

In the Qingsong Courtyard, the second lady and the fourth lady stood on the ground with their heads bowed.

The Wang family on the side gloated and watched, and when he saw Song Yi coming in, he had a sneer on his face.

Song Yi raised his head to look at the old lady, and saw that her face was still flushed, obviously angry just now.

"Hello, Princess. A good true princess, what has become of your scourge? When the old lady saw the real princess come in, she scolded sternly.
