Chapter 3 Stewardship
Judging from the brief contact between the two generations and Su Xingci, this person is calm and light on the surface, but his heart is full of unwillingness, the age of eighteen is the age when others are high-spirited, but it is the age when he is facing death, and no one will be reconciled.
In the end, Ye Xixi still sighed, "That's it, anyway, I can be reborn infinitely, I can be regarded as an old goblin who is more than a hundred years old, and I still fight with young people, I hope that in this life, I can help Su Xing live longer, and I will not be so unjust if I die early." ”
Ye Xixi, who wanted to open it, finally felt hungry, sat up and pulled the rope on the side of the bed, and the little maid who went out before heard the bell ringing, and immediately ran in, bent down and saluted, "What does the eldest princess command?" ”
Ye Xixi rubbed her stomach, "This palace is hungry, so ask someone to prepare food." ”
When the little maid heard Ye Xixi say that she wanted to eat, the surprise on her face couldn't be suppressed, "Slave maid, let's prepare." ”
After speaking, he ran out happily, explained to the little maid outside, and then ran in and waited for him.
The little maid looked full of aura, Ye Xixi scratched her head and asked, "What's your name?" ”
The little maid wondered for a moment, and then recovered, "The name that the eldest princess gave to the slave maid just before yesterday is called Yuanchun. ”
"Oh......" Ye Xi nodded clearly, and then asked, "The other three maids are called Yuan Xia, Yuan Qiu and Yuan Dong?" ”
Yuan Chun nodded and said, "Yes, it was the eldest princess who changed it for the slaves and maids the day before yesterday." ”
Ye Xixi secretly bent the corners of her mouth, but she didn't expect that she guessed correctly.
"Tell them to come in and serve, and by the way, call Jiang Li and Lu Yin too, and let them bring the account books of the princess's mansion."
"Yes." Yuan Chun took the order and walked out, and after a while, Yuan Xia and the three of them walked in.
"Eldest Princess."
Ye Xixi put on her shoes, stood up, stretched out her hands and said, "Wait for the palace to change clothes." ”
The three of them quickly dressed Ye Xixi, and Yuan Chun had already called Jiang Li and Lu Yin to the courtyard.
Because Ye Xixi was still getting dressed, the three of them waited quietly outside the door.
After Ye Xixi finished dressing up, she came to the outhouse and sat down on the main seat, "Yuan Xia, call them in." ”
Yuan Xia answered and walked out, Ye Xixi also knew Yuan Xia's appearance.
Jiang Li and Lu Yin walked in together, handed over the account book to Yuan Xia and Yuan Qiu, and bowed, "See the eldest princess." ”
Yuan Qiu and Yuan Xia put the account book on the table next to Ye Xixi, Ye Xixi nodded, motioned for Jiang Li and Lu Yin to get up, and looked at the account book seriously.
As Emperor Cang'an's favorite eldest princess Mingxi, she has three county fiefdoms, and all the taxes of the three counties belong to the eldest princess Mingxi, these three counties are equivalent to being completely controlled by the eldest princess of Mingxi, and Emperor Cang'an also generously chose three particularly rich counties for her, so the number of the princess's account book can be said to be quite good.
This made Ye Xixi's heart suddenly brighter before, who doesn't like money.
Jiang Li and Lu Yin had heard it many times when Ye Xixi was still the second lady of King Hui, Dongfang Yuerou.
From the point of view of Ye Xixi in the eighth generation, these two people are purely condescending to be housekeepers in the princess's mansion.
Jiang Li can be said to be a great talent in the Cang'an period, his paintings can be fried to tens of thousands of taels, the sound of the piano is also a must, and the appearance is also good, as for the family background, his father is the prefect of Anqing Mansion, and Lu Yin's martial arts are one of the top few people in Canglan Country, usually cold faces, but they can't stop the stunning color, the family background is a little mysterious, and Qianji Pavilion has not found out.
Such two people are placed in the princess's mansion as housekeepers, and it is estimated that Emperor Cang'an and the eldest princess Mingxi will not feel a pity.
"The princess's mansion is very well taken care of by the two of you, and the palace is very pleased, in fact, the palace has always heard rumors that the two of you are a little condescending to be a little housekeeper in the princess's mansion."
When Ye Xixi said this, Jiang Li and Lu Yin raised their heads at the same time, frowning and looking nervously.
"If you have other ambitions, you might as well tell this palace, this palace can set you free, and you don't have to worry about the emperor's brother blaming, with this palace here, he won't say anything."
Jiang Li still frowned, took a step forward and asked, "Does the eldest princess think that something is wrong with the little one?" ”
Although Lu Yin regained his coldness, his eyes clearly showed that he had similar questions.
Ye Xixi smiled helplessly, "This palace just wants you to realize the value of your life, and you don't have to be wronged in this small princess's mansion." ”
Hearing Ye Xixi say this, Jiang Li stretched her brows, as long as it wasn't the eldest princess who disliked herself, she looked at Ye Xixi with bright eyes, "The value of the small one is to take care of the eldest princess, and the little one just hopes that the eldest princess won't drive the little one away." ”
Lu Yin nodded on the side, meaning the same idea.
Ye Xixi pulled the corners of her mouth, she really couldn't understand what these two people thought.
Jiang Li saw Ye Xixi's thoughts, and explained with a smile, "The lives of the little one and Lu Yin were saved by General Qin, and the reason why the little one is willing to stay in the princess's mansion is just that he hopes to take care of the eldest princess on behalf of the general, and it has nothing to do with the emperor, and I also ask the eldest princess to let the little one fulfill her lifelong wish." ”
Lu Yin nodded again, but it was more solemn and serious than before.
Ye Xixi shrugged her shoulders and handed the finished account book to the two of them, "Okay, let it be." ”
The two of them bowed their hands respectfully, "Princess Xie." ”
"Yes, let's get out." Ye Xixi sent the two out, immediately sat down at the dining table, and ate in a big gulp.
Only after taking care of the body can you have the energy to do other things, eat well, Ye Xixi sent the maids out, and lay on the bed doing various exercises by herself.
Tired from exercise, Ye Xixi quickly fell asleep.
When I woke up the next day, it was already time.
Ye Xixi pulled the bell, and the maids served her to freshen up, and after washing, she ate a meal that she didn't know if it was lunch or breakfast, and after the meal, she was poured a bowl of bitter decoction by the maids.
After resigned himself to drinking the decoction, Yuan Chun took the bowl, handed the handkerchief to Ye Xixi, and said by the way, "At the end of the hour, the emperor came to see the eldest princess, and when he saw the princess sleeping fragrantly, he gave a few words of advice and went back to the palace." ”
Ye Xixi took the handkerchief, wiped her mouth, returned the handkerchief to Yuan Chun, and said lightly, "The palace knows, go and call Lu Yin to the study." ”
Yuan Chun put away the handkerchief, saluted, and went to the front yard to find Lu Yin.
Lu Yin was practicing swords in the courtyard, and when he saw Yuan Chun coming over, he stopped and looked over.
Yuan Chun bowed down and saluted, "Steward Lu, the eldest princess invites you to go to her study." ”
Lu Yin bowed his head and strode towards Ye Xixi's study.
