"You don't have to go, the father will ask clearly, and he will never wronged you." Mu Hou Ye's tone was tough, after all, the third uncle and the third aunt were elders, no matter what the facts were, Mu Hou Ye always had to save face for them.

Mu Ningxuan had to give up, originally Mu Ningxuan still wanted to get Guo Xiaoniang out of the mouth of the third uncle and three aunts in front of her father, but it was a pity that she had this opportunity.

Let's see what my father does, Mu Ningxuan thought to herself.

It is said that a few days ago, Mu Ningxuan deliberately found a craftsman to make a very similar jade pendant.

Then he untied his piece of true jade pendant from his waist and hid it.

The fake jade pendant was placed on the dressing table at random and told Xiaofu not to accept it.

deliberately left flaws, I just wanted to see if Guo Xiaoniang's eyeliner placed in Liu Jutang would be taken.

This move is in Guo Xiaoniang's arms.

Sure enough, a few days ago, Mu Ningxuan found that the jade pendant on the dressing table was missing.

The fish took the bait, and Mu Ningxuan didn't make a noise, just pretended not to know, after all, I hadn't brought it for a long time, and it was normal to not know that the jade pendant was missing.

Guo Xiaoniang is smart, she didn't do it herself this time, otherwise she would have lifted a stone to shoot herself in the foot this time.

Back in Liujutang, the first thing Mu Ningxuan did was to cut off the maids in Liujutang, especially the ones sent by Guo Xiaoniang, who had to be sent out.

Originally, Mu Ningxuan wanted to use these eyeliners to continue to convey some wrong messages and objects to Guo Xiaoniang, but now it is not possible.

Now Guo Xiaoniang was pressed by Princess Gaorou in the mansion, and she was already depressed and angry. This time, Feng's mother, as soon as the matter of picking geese came out, it was a lawsuit related to human life, Guo Xiaoniang could do anything in order to protect herself and get rid of Mu Ningxuan as soon as possible.

So Mu Ningxuan had to prevent Guo Xiaoniang from poisoning her, and the person sent by Guo Xiaoniang was determined not to stay in the yard anymore.

Although it is said that it is to lay off the subordinates of Liu Jutang, this is a matter of the inner house, and it needs the permission of Princess Gao Rou, the housewife.

Princess Gao Rou was very good at talking, and directly agreed to this, and told Mu Ningxuan that if there is anything that is not useful in the courtyard, she will sell it directly, and Mu Ningxuan can buy the maid by herself and report it to the account room.

***

In the courtyard of Liu Jutang, there are two rows of people standing, the front row is the reward of the palace, the standing is very neat, and the back row is sent by Guo Xiaoniang, not only standing lazy, but a few are still chatting quietly and gossiping.

Mu Ningxuan changed her clothes and walked out of the inner room, and the little maid moved a high-backed armchair carved of mahogany and put it in front of Mu Ningxuan, and moved a stone table to put next to the chair.

Yutang helped Mu Ningxuan to sit down slowly, Qiu Mo took a cup of tea and put it on the stone table, and then stood side by side with Xiaofu behind Mu Ningxuan.

The whispering ones in the back row were still muttering, and Aunt Su glared at them fiercely, and the courtyard fell silent.

Aunt Su turned around and lowered her head and said to Mu Ningxuan: "County Lord, the people of Liujutang are all here. Excluding slaves, Xiaofu, Yutang and Qiumo, there are a total of twelve people, four second-class maids, six third-class maids, and two small maids. ”

The maids kowtowed to Mu Ningxuan and saluted.

Mu Ningxuan smiled and said: "Since the county lord came back from the palace, you have been serving in this Liuju Hall for more than half a year now. In the past six months, you have performed your duties and kept Liu Jutang in good order, which is very good. Mu Ningxuan beckoned, and Xiaofu took out a plate, and there were many silver ingots on the plate.

Looking at the plate full of silver ingots full of white flowers, the maids were all red and overjoyed, thinking that Mu Ningxuan wanted to reward them.

Before he could be happy, he heard Mu Ningxuan's words change sharply, and said coldly: "However, some of you have done well, and naturally there are also those who have done badly, and there are not a few who are lazy and slippery." As you all know, the county lord entered the palace at the age of five and stayed in the palace, and the palace has the most important rules, so the eyes of the county lord can't rub the fool. I will reward those who do well, and punish those who do badly. ”

The maids who knelt on the ground lowered their heads and did not dare to speak. A few people who had ghosts in their hearts even lowered their heads, afraid that Mu Ningxuan would call them.
