The master of his own family finally had the fighting spirit to clean up those people, Xue Ying Xiaolian and Chengfu were naturally very happy, one by one they were even more excited than Shi Qingqian, and they ran to prepare the carriage as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

When they returned to the palace, all the subordinates had no other emotions at all, as if their master had disappeared for three days as if he had not disappeared.

It's just a little unusual, when Shi Qingqian returned to the palace in the carriage, the carriage at the gate just showed his face, and he noticed that the pedestrians around him were looking at him with strange eyes, not only staring, but also putting their heads together and pointing.

Seeing Shi Qing's rude brows, Xue Ying ran over without saying anything and stopped a few passers-by: "Uncle, what are you talking about?" Why are you so rude to point fingers at my princess? ”

"Hmph, what about the princess," the old man just shrugged his shoulders and smiled, then shook his head and left, "When our little prince comes back, it won't be!" ”

"Huh?" Xue Ying was said to be confused, and he was even more angry because of their unwarranted discussions.

In the past few days, Shi Qingqian has been staying in the Hou Mansion and has never come out once, why is it that he has not been in the palace for three days, so he has been pointed out behind his back?

"It must be the rain spirit!" Xue Ying told Shi Qingqian what he asked, and scolded angrily, "I'll go back and beat her up!" ”

"Hey, hey, forget it," a few people had already walked into the Hou Mansion, and after the people in the mansion said hello, they also looked at her with strange eyes, Shi Qingqian hurriedly grabbed Xue Ying, "If it is true that she spread some rumors, I think she should not be long before she can't wait to show her feet." ”

Knowing that Shi Qingqian was pregnant, Xue Ying was afraid that she would fall, so he quickly stopped and stood back, but his little mouth still muttered, "Hmph...... Princess, you must not tolerate her again this time! I don't know what she said, but even the passers-by on the street reflected it...... It's about the princess's reputation! ”

Shi Qingqian smiled and poked her head, "Okay, if it's really her, I'll definitely clean her up this time." By the way, Chengfu, you go and call Cai Lao from the Internal Affairs Office and ask him to bring the account book of all the expenses in the palace in the past year. ”

"Yes, the little ones will do it."

"Huh? Princess, a few days ago, you said that you wanted to vomit when you read the account book, why did you start reading it again? When Xiaolian heard this, she felt sick to her stomach.

"It's finally over, and it's time for me to start reclaiming the stewardship's rights."

Shi Qingqi said with a smile, regardless of whether the people around him were ignoring him or what, he walked to her Baoxi Xuan that she hadn't been in for a few days.

Chengfu didn't let Shi Qingqian wait too long, and soon pulled the old man Cai to hug Xixuan.

Cai Lao has been the housekeeper of Yanwangfu for many years, and has always been responsible for the management and distribution of the housekeeper, of course, the accounts are still in charge of the housekeeper, and his daily work is to distribute money according to the various standards specified by the housekeeper, sort out the things piled up in the housekeeper, and collect the records sent by others and rewarded by the court.

This Cai Lao has reached the age of the sixtieth year this year, but although his hair is gray, his spirit is very good, he has been working in Yanwangfu for so long, and he has been summoned by his master only a few times, so this time he came to Baoxixuan, and he seemed to be a little nervous.

Shi Qingqian asked Xiaolian to make him a cup of tea, signaling that he didn't have to be nervous, and while waiting, he flipped through a few pages of the account book, and saw that his face softened a little, so he spoke: "Old Cai, I heard that there are some problems in the palace at the beginning?" ”

Cai Lao nodded, but immediately shook his head, "No, no." ”

"Cai Lao, you just have something to say, you don't have to hide it," Shi Qingqian still flipped through the things in his hand, because he didn't make fake accounts, any existing problems were clear at a glance, "I know that Cai Lao has been in the palace for many years, and his feelings for the palace are not comparable to those young people who are not light or heavy, since they know that there is a problem, they must solve it." ”

Hearing this, Cai Lao nodded a few times, rubbed his hands back and forth, and after thinking for a while, he made up his mind: "The princess doesn't know, our little prince has always cared about the affairs of the house, and it can be said that the prince may not know how much silver is allocated in the palace every year." In the past few years, the servant girl Yu Ling beside the prince has been a fox and a fake tiger, and she has opened a lot of silver in her account and distributed it to other subordinates...... Now she is a person with a monthly income of three or five hundred taels, even if it is distributed to the subordinates, it is a monthly example that one person can have fifteen taels......"

"So much!?" Xue Ying on the side couldn't help but sigh when he heard this.

"Then if she asks for it, you will give it?" Shi Qingqian asked.

"If you don't give, you can't do it if you don't give it...... That little girl is the best at acting, at first I refused, she went to pretend to be sick in front of the prince, and said that I would not give her more money for treatment," Cai Lao said, "The harmful prince came to me, and then I didn't care, she wanted to open as much as she wanted...... To be honest, I always thought it was the meaning of the prince before, and I thought it was ...... Thought it was ......"

Seeing that he was suddenly secretive, Xue Ying smacked his lips, "Why?" You say! ”

Cai Lao secretly glanced at Shi Qingqian's face, and then continued: "I thought it was ...... That rain spirit is not only a maidservant, but also a concubine with no name...... That's why the prince is arrogant to her. ”

"You dare to say this kind of nonsense!" Xiaolian hurriedly scolded, after all, this is a disrespectful word, and if people listen to it, they will be killed.

As soon as she shouted, Cai Lao was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak.

However, Shi Qingqian just nodded in understanding, and didn't say anything else, but pulled the little lotus back, "Okay, Lord Wang, he doesn't care about anything and lets his subordinates be powerful in the mansion, whether it's Cai Lao, if I didn't understand his personality, I would have guessed so." ”

Hearing this, Cai Lao understood that the new princess was a sensible person, and he knelt down as if he had grasped a life-saving straw: "Princess! Now that you are doing this, the old slave will do his best to assist, although the old slave has not calculated carefully, but over the years, the black money under the rain spirit is a few thousand taels, that is, the palace can call her so presumptuous, and she would have been lost in other places! ”

This is true, Yu Ling is a lion opening, and he has to defeat the entire palace.

Shi Qingqian thought for a moment, and then said: "It just so happens that Ming'er is the day to send monthly money, no matter what others say, Cai Lao only needs to send four taels according to the rules, if anyone is not convinced, ask them to find me to theorize." ”

"It's just the rain spirit......"

"It's okay, Cai Lao just does it. Let's just say that the princess said that she wanted to check the accounts, and you didn't dare to go out with money casually. ”

After Cai Lao left, Shi Qingqian held his chin and thought about it again, and suddenly went to the house to rummage around, and then said: "Ying'er, come with me to the military department!" ”
