"This—This is too ......."

Manager Wang looked at the jade pendant, it was in excellent condition, not to mention a hundred taels of silver, which was a lot of money.

However, the number of ledgers was too much, and it was the account of the palace and the internal affairs office, and no one had ever taken it out of the palace so swaggeringly before.

Seeing that Manager Wang was embarrassed, Shi Qingqian hurriedly said: "Manager Wang, I can't hide that this is the emperor's meaning...... As you know, the emperor has always been frugal, but recently, the spending in the palace is too extravagant, and he wants to open up money and reduce expenditure for fear of provoking everyone's displeasure, so he asked me to take an outsider to look at the accounts and see where I can reduce some of the consumption. ”

The expression of the manager Wang was obviously suspicious.

Shi Qingqian also said: "If it can be done, the person in charge of the internal affairs government will definitely be rewarded, if you don't believe it, you can ask Your Majesty if there is really such a thing." ”

"Hey, this, this is not necessary, the slave will help the princess prepare, but it will be really meritorious at that time, and the princess will not forget the help of the slave." Manager Wang finally nodded, anyway, these account books are in the account treasury and they are in vain, and no one will take the initiative to check.

"There is the manager of King Lao, the manager of the king hired a car and equipped it, and directly asked someone to send it to the palace of King Yan, and I have to go to walk around with the sisters in the harem." Shi Qingqian smiled lightly, and after calling Xue Ying, he didn't forget to tell Mr. Wang that he should remember to take a few books on the table with him, and then left.

"Princess, where are you going? This is not the way to the concubine's place. ”

"The concubine is about to give birth, we don't bother every day these days, let's go to Weirui Palace and visit Jia Concubine."

"Jia Concubine?" Xue Ying tilted his head, "The princess is going to see where the money in the account is being spent, right?" But you and Concubine Jia never walked around once...... I don't know if she will be suspicious, what if she startles the snake. ”

Listening to Xue Ying's words, Shi Qingqian couldn't help but tilt her head and rub her head with a smile, "Okay, you Ying'er, you've been with me for so long, you know that you can't startle the snake when you do things?" ”

Xue Ying smiled slyly, "Hehe, after all, I have been with the princess for so many years, and I can learn to speak as a fool." ”

Shi Qingqian nodded in admiration, and then began to answer her question: "One of my relatives runs to the internal affairs mansion every day, and I have met the maid of the concubine more than once or twice, I think she should have known what I was checking for a long time, instead of asking her to be suspicious, it is better for me to take the initiative to find the door and tell her the 'reason'." ”

If Jia Concubine really had something to do with the corruption of the previous dynasty, Shi Qingqian would be glad that this matter was investigated by himself.

After all, the fake accounts are almost leakless, and the people behind them have such the ability to make fake accounts, and they must be very alert and pay attention to everything. If Shen Mi or Shen Shu came to start, I am afraid that it would have been startled a long time ago.

The two of them came to the Weirui Palace together, and the one who came out to receive them was the little maid who went to the Internal Affairs Office to receive the monthly example on weekdays, and she dreamed of it.

As soon as he saw Shi Qingqian, he was stunned for a while, obviously he didn't expect Shi Qingqian to appear here, "Yan, Princess Yan?" Why are you here all of a sudden......"

"I know that Jia Concubine is pregnant, and I shouldn't be bothered, but there are some things that need to be checked with Jia Concubine, and the girl who dreams about it should have a toilet?" Shi Qingqian smiled.

After all, he has never walked around with Wei Rui Palace, and Shi Qingqian is a person from Shi Yueran's side, and he doesn't deal with Jia Concubine when he sees it on weekdays, and he naturally refuses to let her in at will now, "Princess Yan, my mother has been unwell recently, why don't you come back another day?" ”

"No, it's today," Shi Qingqian smiled firmly, "You go and tell your master that Princess Yan came here after reading the account books from the Internal Affairs Office." ”

Hearing this, the idiot was vigilant, and after looking up and down at Shi Qingqian, he left a door, and turned around and went in to inform Jia Concubine.

"Princess, what you said is so clear......" As soon as the foolish dream left, Xue Ying asked sideways.

Shi Qingqian just stretched out his hand and waved it, telling her not to worry, "It's okay." ”

Not long after he finished speaking, Crazy Dream walked out, "Princess Yan, please come in." ”

Sure enough, as Shi Qingqian expected, when she heard about the accounts, Concubine Jia asked her to go in. So he took Shen Shu and the others into the palace, and saw Na Jia Concubine sitting in the room drinking tea comfortably.

"Why is Princess Yan in the mood to come to my little palace today?" As soon as Shi Qingqian walked in, Jia Concubine got up and poured her a cup of tea, and reached out to make a 'please' gesture.

Shi Qingqian didn't see her, and sat down opposite her, "Concubine Jia is a smart person, and I don't go around in circles with you." I'm here this time for the accounts of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and in the past few days, I have found that the accounts in the palace of Jia Concubine Niang Wei Rui have doubled several times, and the amount is a little large, so I came to ask what is going on. ”

"With all due respect...... Jia Concubine 'unconsciously' helped her belly and said, "The affairs of the harem should be taken care of by the people of the harem. ”

I already knew that she would say this, Shi Qingqian was not in a hurry, and said slowly: "Naturally, this is because this is the emperor's explanation - there have been too many expenses in the palace recently, and the emperor wants to open up sources and reduce expenditure, but the concubine is pregnant, so she can only hand over this matter of accounting and reducing expenditure to me." ”

"Open, open source and reduce expenditure?" The corners of Jia Concubine's mouth twitched.

"Naturally, because the accounts on Concubine Jia's Mansion are too big, I came to you to ask, is it possible......" Shi Qingqian raised his eyebrows, "Is it possible, what else is Concubine Jia hiding, I'm afraid that someone will find out?" ”

"Naturally, there isn't!" Jia Concubine hurriedly explained, "No, it's just because I have a big belly, and I don't want to be perfunctory when I eat and wear...... I asked for more from the Internal Affairs Office, if so, if Princess Yan felt that it was a waste, I would ask for less in the future. ”

"This is not appropriate, after all, Concubine Jia is pregnant, and the degree of food and clothing must not be perfunctory," Shi Qingqian looked around casually while speaking, "Since every account here is clear, I don't have anything to bother about, Concubine Jia is pregnant, I will find another place to reduce it, you just take care of it." ”

After that, since he had seen what he wanted to see, Shi Qingqian no longer wanted to stay, and after saying this, he got up, and when he saw that Jia Concubine was about to send himself out, he quickly waved his hand, "Jia Concubine stays, I will go by myself." ”

"Stay, stay." Xue Ying also saluted and walked out with Shi Qingqian.
