Chapter 244: Leaving the Palace
A few days have passed in the blink of an eye, everyone is busy with Tang Qingyi's accession to the throne, the original prince's mansion has also been moved, and all the concubines of Tang Qingyi in the mansion have been brought into the palace, and some loyal minions have been following Tang Qingyi's side, compared to Tang Qingyi's accession to the throne, he will also be mixed with an official and a half-job.
In the original prince's mansion, only some old servants and some maidservants were left to watch the mansion, usually watering the flowers, cleaning the courtyard and the like.
Of course, since Tang Qingyi inherited the throne just now, Qi Kexue didn't wait for Tang Qingyi to come back, and led her large army back to their nest.
Living with Tang Qingyi was also to cooperate with Tang Qingyi at the beginning, so that he could withdraw some suspicions, and now when Tang Qingyi ascends the throne, there will be no need for this.
She is not that cheeky person, she will not leave in that death, since there is no need, then choose to leave wisely.
When Tang Qingye was busy with the affairs in the palace and wanted to tell Qi Kexue the good news first, the building was already empty after returning to the palace.
"Fauber, Fauber." Tang Qing also summoned the old housekeeper in the mansion.
"Master, the slave is here." Before Tang Qing officially ascended the throne, he could not be called the emperor, and at this time he could no longer be called the prince, after all, the holy decree had been issued, so it was most appropriate to call the master. Since Fu Bo has been able to mix in the prince's mansion for so many years without any storms, he also has his own set of small actuarial calculations.
"Where did Qi Kexue go?" Seeing that Qi Kexue's room was empty, and all her favorite things were gone, Tang Qingyi had a bad feeling in his heart, and at first he still wanted to confirm it from Fu Bo's mouth.
"Back to the master, Miss Qi said that if the master asked, she said that it was time to go back to where she should go. said that if the master didn't ask, he wouldn't let the slave talk more. Fu Bo repeated it to Tang Qingye according to Qi Kexue's original words, and he couldn't see a second expression on his face except for a respectful expression.
Although Tang Qing was also dissatisfied with Qi Kexue's approach, he would not take this emotion out on others. "Alright, you can go down."
Fu Bo's words completely confirmed his conjecture, after so many days of estrangement and lack of timely communication, he thought that it was not a problem for Qi Kexue, who was smart about Bingxue, she would figure it out, but she didn't expect Qi Kexue to leave with such a sentence.
It's not that he can't find her, it's easy to find her, they are still partners now, but Qi Kexue's approach deeply pierced his heart.
All his concubines have moved into the palace with him, and Qi Kexue left silently, not just to tell him with actions that she Qi Kexue is not his woman yet, and he has no right to control everything about her.
Regarding this Qi Kexue's temper, Tang Qing also has no way to take her at all, and now she is in an important stage of ascending the throne, and she can't delay major events for the sake of her children's personal affairs.
Tang Qing also decided to put aside the matter of his relationship with Qi Kexue first, as long as he has the heart, he will definitely resolve all this in the future, and now is not the best time.
After making up his mind, Tang Qing didn't dwell on this issue anymore, turned around and left the prince's mansion to do other things.

Qi Kexue, who returned to the 'Water and Cloud Room', was not idle, and immediately called Chu Liyue.
"Xiaoyue, how many children are left behind this time?" Qi Kexue asked.
"Sister, this time is not particularly ideal, the quality of this group of children is too poor, in the end, only one girl stayed, and the rest were all eliminated." Although Chu Liyue didn't know what Qi Kexue was thinking, she still told the truth, she didn't have anything to hide from Qi Kexue.
"What about the first few batches?" Qi Kexue frowned, how could it be so little? It was totally beyond her expectations.
"The first few batches were the same, there were not a few left, and the batches added up to less than ten people. Now, as long as they can get enough food, families will not choose to sell their children.
Recently, I also communicated with Sun Datou about the quality of these children, and Sun Datou said that he had no choice, and that there had been a locust plague in the south for half a year, and the people were hungry, and some had begun to gnaw on grass roots, and even human flesh. These children were lucky enough to escape from there, and some of them were bought by their parents from Sun Datou. After a long period of starvation, his physical fitness has been poor.
I didn't ask for the first batch or two batches, but Sun Datou sent them in the later period, so I thought it wasn't a long-term solution, so I experimented and asked for some, but the result was still unsatisfactory. Chu Liyue explained the specific situation, and she was also at a loss for this, and she had been struggling to think of a way.
"Have you verified Sun Datou's words? Who did Sun Datou come into contact with before and after trading, have you noticed? Qi Kexue's thinking is very agile, and she immediately thought of the method that Chu Liyue had been thinking about for a long time.
"It's still my sister who is amazing, I didn't expect this at the time, but a few days later, I sent some people to verify and confirmed that Sun Datou was not lying, nor had he been in contact with other people. The price we give is very high, and generally people who buy slaves or girls will not buy them at this price, if there is, then it is really for us. Chu Liyue admired Qi Kexue even more, and she could think of so much in just a moment.
"It's just that I have more experience than you, and after this time, when you meet something like this, you will think so much." Funny looked at Chu Liyue's adoring eyes, Qi Kexue continued to think about countermeasures.
It's not a way to always be able to accept people, and now it's time to hire people.
Tang Qingyi has just ascended the throne, and his foundation is unstable, and there will definitely be many people who will take this opportunity to make trouble in the open or secretly to shake Tang Qingyi's foundation.
Then Tang Qing will also use the power of the 'Water Cloud Room', on the one hand, she must ensure the normal operation of the 'Water Cloud Room', and on the other hand, she will have to draw enough manpower for Tang Qing to use.
Although there are enough people now, they are already stretched, and as Tang Qingyi's demand increases, sooner or later, 'Shuiyunjian' will not be able to provide people, and it will be troublesome at that time.
It seems that the current plan for the present is to control the needs of Tang Qingyi's side, and it is the best choice to start in advance.
"Xiao Yueyue, from now on, you can count the real manpower that can perform the task in our current 'Water Cloud Room', and then calculate the manpower of these tasks, and give me a total. In addition to these, I also need to know how many people we can transfer out to carry out tasks after deducting the normal operation of the headquarters. Qi Kexue thought as she spoke, although she had some general data in her head, what she needed now was more detailed and specific information.
"Well, I know my sister. Is this related to Tang Qingyi's accession to the throne? "Chu Liyue especially likes to be by Qi Kexue's side is that she is by Qi Kexue's side, that is, she can ask whatever she wants, without concealment, and Qi Kexue will tell her everything she knows without reservation.
"Well, Xiao Yueyue is really getting smarter and smarter, worthy of my sister I like you, come, call my sister to one." Qi Kexue instantly turned into a big pervert, and she was about to pounce on Chu Liyue.
"Oh, sister, you're still making trouble at this time, come and let me hear what these people are doing, I won't do it for you." Chu Liyue didn't care about Qi Kexue at all, what she was thinking about was what Qi Kexue had seen through from the current situation.
"Actually, it's nothing, it's just that we plan to deal with a group of restless people in advance during the time when Tang Qingyi ascended the throne, otherwise we will be busy after Tang Qingyi ascends the throne.
I'm afraid that at that time, it's not just a matter of being busy, but also someone taking advantage of our lack of manpower to take advantage of our loopholes, and I don't want anyone in our 'water and clouds' to be harmed, so I can only do it in advance. Qi Kexue simply told Chu Liyue what she was worried about.
After hearing this, Chu Liyue suddenly realized, and once again admired Qi Kexue's prophetic name.
Although Chu Liyue has been in power for a period of time, the means of dealing with things have gradually matured. But no matter what, she has never experienced the change of dynasty in a country, and Qi Kexue has not experienced this either. But even if you haven't eaten pork, you've seen a pig walking, in modern times, we have watched countless people in TV dramas, how can we learn some experience from it? Qi Kexue is still very confident in this point.
"Sister, there is a question that I have always been very strange, but I have never dared to ask it since I followed you, and I have the courage to do so later, but I have never had time to ask, so I have delayed it again and again, and I haven't asked it until now, can I ask it today?" Chu Liyue asked weakly.
"If you want to ask, it's not your character." Qi Kexue glanced at Chu Liyue, what kind of cuteness is there to sell, do you think you are a little girl?
"Hehe, you know, sister, where did your skills and the weird thoughts of your head come from. My sister used to be the daughter of a minister, and she was a princess in the later period, we all know this, but these two identities will not make my sister what she is now, right? Chu Liyue has been curious about this question for a long time, and sometimes she will ponder it when she thinks about it, but she has never figured out the answer, and while Qi Kexue is here today, she hurriedly asked it, otherwise it will always linger in her heart.
"It turns out that you want to ask this, then you just continue to hold it, I will tell you when I should tell you, the time is not yet ripe, this is a heavenly opportunity, and it must not be revealed." Qi Kexue didn't expect Chu Liyue to want to ask this, this question is really endless in one or two sentences, and she doesn't want to say it now, so she changed the topic.
