"Fifth princess, I don't know what's going on?" He Dexiang glanced at He Quan and said with a smile.

"Mr. He." Xiao Liyue also smiled, "It's nothing, but I heard from Shuang'er that when she came to collect the charcoal fire today, someone said that the charcoal fire was gone?" ”

He Dexiang's slender eyes narrowed, "Back to the fifth princess, it has been cold recently, and charcoal is indeed scarce, so you can only stick to the emperor and queen and the ladies of the palaces first." ”

"Is there such a lack of charcoal that Princess Ben can't get it?" Xiao Liyue frowned, but there was a bit of cunning in her eyes.

"Fifth princess, the minion has already said it, no." He Quan bent down and spoke unhappily.

"Heh, fifth princess, this is also a helpless thing, it is true that there is a lack of charcoal, if the princess doesn't believe it, she can report to the queen mother and let the queen make a decision." He Dexiang said.

is really an old fox, if this matter goes to the queen, I am afraid that I will become a laughing stock.

"Is there really nothing at all?"

"It's gone." He Dexiang shook his head, "The princess should go back, if there is a surplus in the future, the old slave will think about the princess." ”

He Dexiang was too lazy to say anything, and just wanted to send Xiao Liyue away.

"Huh." Xiao Liyue smiled, her delicate eyebrows and eyes stretched, and her smile attracted people's eyes very much, "There is no need to send charcoal, Gonggong He still has to think about it, how to explain your crime of corruption!" ”

He Dexiang frowned, "What do you mean by this, Fifth Princess?" ”

"The palace of Nuoda needs so much charcoal, and the father is benevolent and generous, not to mention the masters of each palace, that is, the palace maids and eunuchs, and there are very few charcoal fires in winter. But now Father-in-law He said that there is no charcoal at all, so much charcoal, if someone is not filling their pockets, how can there be such a shortage? ”

Xiao Liyue was just deliberately talking just now, and the whole person looked timid and cowardly, but now as soon as the momentum was released, he instantly suppressed He Dexiang.

"This ......" He Quan was stunned, "you, you are talking nonsense." ”

"Nonsense?" Xiao Liyue snorted coldly, "Then it's better to check how much charcoal has been distributed, it just so happens that this princess also wants to know how many charcoal fires Grandpa He has shortened." ”

Or rather, it's only shorter than her Moon Tide Pavilion.

Hearing this, He Quan's face became even more ugly. But He Dexiang can be regarded as having seen the world, and after a short period of surprise, he gradually calmed down.

"The fifth princess misunderstood, but because when the Ministry of Internal Affairs was purchasing charcoal recently, she didn't expect the consumption to be so large in early winter, so she purchased less for a while, so how could she fill her pocket."

"Oh? It turned out to be a lack of procurement. In this way, Manager He is not filling his pockets, but ......" Xiao Liyue paused, "The work is not good, and the management is incompetent!" ”

"Fifth princess, even if you are a princess, my godfather, no, Mr. He is also an old man in the palace, you can't slander casually!" He Quan stood up and pretended to be angry.

Xiao Liyue's eyes swept him coldly, "The annual charcoal consumption should be recorded in the book, and the person in charge of procurement should be aware of the shortage of procurement and the lack of charcoal, shouldn't he be the manager to bear this responsibility?" ”

He Dexiang frowned, he didn't expect that these five princesses were a difficult master.

"Fifth princess, our internal affairs office naturally has a decision on this matter, the fifth princess is a princess after all, so don't meddle in such a trivial matter."

"Although the affairs of the internal affairs office have nothing to do with the princess, but the affairs of the harem are related to the emperor and the queen's mother, the charcoal is insufficient, even if it is only the lack of eunuchs and palace maids, if it is exaggerated by someone with a heart, it is not good to say that the queen is in charge of the harem, wouldn't it cause the mother to be criticized, so it seems that what is the heart of the manager, but it needs to be studied."

Xiao Liyue looked at He Dexiang's pale face, and the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, "Also, although General Manager He is in charge of the Internal Affairs Office, I heard that Deputy General Manager Li usually does a good job, but I don't know if Deputy Chief Manager will ...... if he knows the news."

"Princess!" He Dexiang finally couldn't hold it anymore, Li Jia had been secretly staring at his position as the head manager, and he naturally couldn't let him catch the handle.

He Dexiang eased his expression, like Xiao Liyue saluted, "Fifth princess, this matter is an oversight of the old slave for a while, princess rest assured, starting tomorrow, the charcoal fire in the princess's palace, no, there will be no shortage of charcoal in the harem." I also hope that the princess can be a large number of adults, after all, if such news spreads, it will not be good if it really damages the reputation of the queen. ”

"Oh, can Mr. He really guarantee the charcoal fire? After all, all over this harem, the level of charcoal use is also different, so can Mr. He ensure that there will be no problems? ”

She is a princess anyway, but the most inferior charcoal used in the palace before, and since she is here today, she naturally has to solve this problem together.

"Rest assured, princess, nothing can go wrong." He Dexiang gritted his teeth and smiled.

In this way, this princess is also relieved. By the way, I heard that Grandpa He is the godson of the manager? ”

He Quan's heart tightened, and he looked at Xiao Liyue a little nervously.

"Heh, this princess doesn't mean anything else, the so-called favorite son is not filial, when it is time to teach a lesson, I still have to teach a lesson, Mr. He, don't you say?"

Although she has never felt that eunuchs and palace maids are inferior, but if a person like He Quan does not let him suffer today, she is afraid that her princess majesty will be trampled under her feet more and more in the future.

He Dexiang lowered his head, unable to see his emotions, "What the fifth princess said is true. ”

"In that case, this princess is leaving, and the Yuexi Pavilion is waiting for the charcoal fire of Mr. He." After speaking, Xiao Liyue walked out of the door, and when she walked to the door, she suddenly stopped again, looked back and smiled, "Also, the contents of this cabinet are so warm in this winter." ”

He Dexiang and He Quan were shocked in their hearts.

After Xiao Liyue left, He Dexiang's narrow eyes narrowed, and he realized that his back was sweating.

"Godfather, how could the fifth princess know the ...... in the cabinet?"

"Shut up!" He Dexiang glared at He Quan, "Get down and get twenty sticks by yourself." ”

"Godfather......" He Quan's face changed greatly.

But seeing He Dexiang's cold face, he didn't dare to speak again, so he could only go down to receive the punishment.

Looking at the tightly closed cabinet, He Dexiang slowly exhaled.

No matter how the fifth princess knows, I'm afraid that in this harem, there will be another master who can't be messed with in the future!
