Chapter 34: Attitude Change

Lu Jue came back from the next court, and as soon as he returned to the house, he heard about the visit of His Royal Highness King Ming to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Because of the incredible things that happened to Beitang Xiu before, the emperor didn't care what the reason was, as long as his own brother was alive, he hereby granted him a month's leave, let him take care of it in the house, and then go to the court when his body is completely fine.

Today is the last day of the January period, what is this King Ming doing in his prime minister's mansion?

Lu Jue was puzzled, and called the housekeeper to question, only to learn that His Royal Highness King Ming was actually here for his second daughter.

I guessed the purpose of several other parties coming here, but I didn't expect it to be this.

How could Yang Er have an intersection with King Ming? Could it be that the two met during the months of her disappearance?

Lu Jue hadn't figured out this question yet, and the housekeeper's words made his beard tremble in shock, "What? You said that King Ming announced in public that he would marry Yang Er as the princess in half a month? ”

Steward Wang's face was smiling, and the corners of his eyes were squeezed together with a smile, "Yes, Mrs. and Lady were also present at the time, it's true." ”

Lu Jue's expression became a little subtle, he pondered for a moment, he didn't know what he was thinking, paced back and forth in the study, and after a while, he raised his head and ordered: "Go, call the duck." ”

Yuan Quanquan followed the subordinate all the way to the study, and when he entered the house, he saw her prime minister's father standing at the table with his back to the door, and she didn't call anyone, so she approached and stood behind him.

Lu Jue turned around after hearing the footsteps, and when he saw Yuan Quanquan, he didn't care about her etiquette, and went straight to the point: "Yang'er, I heard that His Royal Highness King Ming wants to marry you as a concubine?" ”

Yuan Quanquan guessed early in the morning that the other party came to her for this matter, like last time, she had already thought of the rhetoric, and recited the made up call like an endorsement: "Yes, my daughter was away from home for a few months, and by chance she entered the Ming Wang's mansion, and got along with His Royal Highness the Ming King day and night, and fell in love for a long time. ”

These words have been revised many times in my belly like writing an essay, and now when I say it, I almost numb myself to death.

What kind of long box guards the white head? What day and night get along and fall in love for a long time? It's all bullshit!

It's all because her under-slapping mouth is quick for a while, and she has dug such a god hole for herself!

Although she has accepted the reality, she still can't help but complain.

Hearing Yuan Quanquan admit this matter with his own ears, the shock in Lu Jue's heart was huge. Because of her mother's identity and the reason why she was pregnant in the first place, Lu Jue's attitude towards her has been quite cold since the birth of this little daughter. In addition, compared with his eldest daughter Lu Qingyuan, Lu Qingyang's own temperament does not like him, and over time, he rarely pays attention to her.

However, he never expected that this little daughter, who had always been timid and didn't dare to speak loudly, would actually climb to King Ming!

Even his eldest daughter Lu Qingyuan, he was not sure that she could enter the eyes of King Ming.

Mu Lu explored, and Lu Jue found that since the little daughter returned home, her temperament seemed to have changed a lot. Standing in front of him at this time, it was no longer Lu Qingyang, who didn't dare to look at him with her head down and whispering softly, she was standing upright at the moment, standing with her head held high, with a calm smile on her face, and her eyes were no longer cowardly, but confident and cunning.

The person is still the same person, but the temperament has completely changed.

When she first returned home the day before yesterday, he saw her and felt that something was wrong, but at that time he also confirmed that the person in front of him was indeed his daughter. But Lu Jue still felt a little puzzled, would amnesia make people even change their temperament?

Lu Jue suddenly found that he really didn't know anything about this little daughter.

After Yuan Quanquan finished saying that, he stood quietly, carefully observing the changes in Lu Jue's expression, but unfortunately the old fox's expression was too well managed, except for some small surprise in her eyes, she didn't see anything useful.

But she didn't really want to see anything from the other party's face, she just wanted to see how her little daughter, who had always been unwelcome, would react to her prime minister's father once she became Princess Zhunming.

The results disappointed her a bit.

The father and daughter didn't speak for a while, staring at each other for a moment, and finally it was Lu Jue who broke the silence.

"In that case, then you should prepare well, you don't have to worry about the dowry, Dad will plan it for you." After a pause, as if thinking of something, he said, "Your yard...... I'll ask the housekeeper to take a look at it another day and find a few craftsmen to repair it. If you need anything, just ask it and let the housekeeper send someone to buy it. If there is a shortage of money, go to the account office and receive it. ”

Yuan Quanquan listened quietly to him finish speaking, and only replied with one word: "Yes." ”

Yo, knowing that she has climbed the high branches, I am starting to care about her now, why did I go earlier?

Resisting the urge to roll his eyes, Yuan Quanquan didn't know what to say about this cool father.

Lu Jue wanted to say something more, but seeing Yuan Quanhuan's cold appearance, his lips squirmed, and he swallowed the words back.

Yuan Quanquan didn't want to say more to this cool and thin father, so he bowed slightly and turned to leave.

Looking at the back of Yuan Quanquan leaving, Lu Jue frowned slightly, and also walked out of the study and walked towards his own bedroom.

Yuan Circle circled out the study and did not go back to her small courtyard, but went directly to the account room under the leadership of the housekeeper.

Just now her father said that if you are short of money, you can go directly to the account office to receive it. She's short of money right now, very short of money.

Although she has the 1,000 taels of silver tickets given by the concubine when she left the palace before, she wants to keep the 1,000 taels for later use, and she can't move it for the time being.

followed Steward Wang to the account room, and Yuan Quanquan asked for one hundred taels.

Generally, in a large family like this, the accounts in the house are basically managed by the hostess of the house, and the Xiangfu is no exception. Qian is in charge of the feed, and the following sub-accounts are managed by a bookkeeper and reported to Qian every month. There is a detailed registration of how much or less it is, where it is used, who spends the money, etc. Normally, people in the government come here to receive money, and it doesn't matter if the amount is small, but if the amount is large, they have to get the permission of their wife.

The hundred taels of the Yuan circle can be regarded as a large number.

As soon as I heard that I had to ask Qian to nod to get a money, I was not happy when I got a circle.

"My father said that as long as I need money, I can come directly to get it, and I don't need to ask my wife." Spread out his palms and look like collecting debts, the Yuan Circle doesn't believe it, can they still listen to the words of the master of the Prime Minister's Mansion?

The bookkeeper Xu Youcai is also a flexible person, seeing that the second lady, who was not welcomed in the past, came to receive the money so arrogantly, and followed Steward Wang by his side, he glanced at Steward Wang, and when he saw the other party nodding, he immediately changed his face.

"Okay, since the master said it, then there is no need to tell the lady. Second Miss, wait a minute, the villain will give you money. ”

After a while, Xu Youcai came out with a small tray, on which were placed ten silver ingots, ten taels each, a total of one hundred taels, just right.

"Second Miss, this is a hundred taels of silver, you can take it."

Yuan Quanquan unceremoniously took the silver and put it away, raised his hand and said, "Thank you." And he walked away without looking back.

Steward Wang watched Yuan Quanquan leave, then turned to face Xu Youcai, and said, "In the future, if the second lady comes to get the silver, you don't need to inform Madame, just give it directly." ”

Xu Youcai said yes again and again, and was a little curious, "Steward Wang, master, this is ...... What's the point? "He didn't like to see him before, but now he is given such special treatment, there must be something in it that he doesn't know.

Steward Wang glanced at him, "What do you care about so much, settle your account." ”

Yuan Circle got the silver, excitedly held it in his hand and walked into the small courtyard, and hid the money well as soon as he went back. She originally wanted five hundred taels, but the first time she took so much money, she was afraid of causing unnecessary trouble, so she only wanted one hundred taels. Anyway, in half a month, she will marry into the palace as a princess, and the money will be less?

The hundred taels were to be saved in case of emergency.

After tossing all morning, after having lunch in the small courtyard, Yuan Quanquan was just about to lie down and take a nap, when he saw Steward Wang enter the small courtyard with a few craftsmen.

"Second Miss, the master has ordered, let someone repair your yard, you see, there is anything that needs to be improved, you can bring it up, these are the best craftsmen in the capital, and the craftsmanship is the best."

Yuan Quanquan glanced at the three masters behind Steward Wang and nodded, "Oh, you guys look at it, I don't care." "Anyway, she won't be able to live here for long, and she doesn't particularly care about what it looks like, even if it stays as it is, she doesn't have a problem with it.

But since this is her prime minister's father's heart, she can't refuse, right?

Afraid that the noise made by these people would affect his rest, Yuan Quanquan simply went out of the courtyard, found a remote corner of the house where no one was around, lay down on the grass, and slept comfortably.

Xiao Zhi stood next to her and urged her to get up, saying that this is not appropriate, "Miss, you are all the ones who want to be princesses, but you can't do this, you may not be able to arrange you when you are seen!" ”

Today's weather is good, there is no warm sunshine, the breeze is gentle, Yuan Quanhuan closed his eyes and enjoyed the coolness of the breeze, taking Xiao Zhi's words as a deaf ear and ignoring them.

Xiao Zhi saw that she couldn't persuade her, so she could only helplessly go to the side to watch the wind for her, and someone came over to remind her in time.

This corner is the westernmost place of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and few people come, but the Yuan Circle has a beautiful nap. When she woke up, she saw a small white face leaning over her head, staring at her seriously.

Leng Buding was taken aback, Yuan Quanquan sat up and threw a roll of his eyes at Ah Piao, "You scared me to death!" ”

Xiao Zhi heard the voice of the Yuan Circle not far away, and turned her head to look at it, "Huh? ”

Yuan Quanquan laughed at her twice, waved his hand and casually found an excuse to send the person away.

After Xiao Zhi left, Yuan Quanquan spoke again, "How is it?" That guy was caught in jail? "That guy - that's the guy who was scared by her into peeing his pants. He ran to the government office to surrender, and the Yuan Circle asked Ah Piao to inquire about the news, and now Ah Piao has come back to report.

Ah Piao nodded, and the voice that belonged to the young man leaked out of his mouth: "Well, I caught it." ”

As soon as I heard Ah Piao's voice, the Yuan Circle still had a sense of unreality, and it was still a little uncomfortable for a while. After staring at Ah Piao for a long time, he suddenly leaned over and said with a smile: "Ah Piao, call the master to listen." ”

Ah Piao is a good child, and obediently calls people: "Master." ”

"Scream again."

"Master."

"Call again."

"Master."

Yuan Quanquan felt that his bad taste had been satisfied.
