Whether the six of them are willing or unwilling, they have already followed Shannai, so what is so special about the remaining two?

Gonggong Cao cleared his throat: "Princess, this is a bit special sent by the palace...... Ahem, the palace maid who helped the prince understand personnel in advance. ”

The word "help" was said with great meaning, and the old eunuch couldn't help but look at Shen Qiutan's face.

Shen Qiutan didn't rush to speak, but he thought about it in his heart, can't he look at the picture of this matter? Li Qi is like that, how can he need someone to "help"? She straightened her face, and looked very calm: "Is the prince useful?" ”

"This ......" Cao Gonggong was hesitant.

What does hesitation mean? Shen Qiutan stared at Gonggong Cao, his emotions were faintly exposed, could it be that he had mistaken Li Chen?

Seeing that Shen Qiutan was finally anxious, Gonggong Cao said: "Of course not, the prince doesn't know about their existence at all." ”

It seems that in the cold winter wax moon, after drinking hot mutton soup, Shen Qiutan only felt comfortable and warm all over his body, which is about the same!

This Father-in-law Cao, it turns out that he still likes to be funny?

was told by Gonggong Cao, and the faces of the two girls flashed with embarrassment and pleading: "Please save us from the princess!" ”

"Where does this begin? Who will take your life? ”

Shen Qiutan doesn't know anything, ordinary sons with some wealth will have a room when they are old, let alone Li Qi. There are two palace maids who are specially trained and well-versed in personnel in the palace, and it is not surprising that they are waiting for the main mother to fall.

"The princess and the maid helped, the slave did not complete the task, so she returned to the palace, and her life was worried." These two people are about twenty years old, and they are in the best years of a woman's life, although they are not as outstanding as the previous six in terms of appearance, but their bodies are full and round, and they are more attractive.

Shen Qiutan glanced at Gonggong Cao, who was secretly watching the show: "What does Gonggong Cao think?" ”

It stands to reason that even if they go back innocently, they will not lose their lives, and the attitude of the two is obviously that they want to stay, and the intention to stay is very obvious.

Shen Qiutan waited for Gonggong Cao's answer.

Gonggong Cao's old face was wrinkled, as if he was extremely embarrassed, and the two palace maids looked at him with pleading eyes, and he sighed, as if he was about to start pleading.

The maids of the two palaces were overjoyed, and as a result, they listened to Cao Gong's fair words: "What's so embarrassing about this?" The slaves and maids look down on our palace in the palace, and even the palace maids sent are picked by others, old and ugly, and they don't even deserve to carry shoes for the princess. ”

After speaking, his face wrinkled even tighter, it turned out that it was not a contemplative look before, but a look of disgust.

Hahaha, Shen Qiutan couldn't help laughing, the faces of the two palace maids were blue and white, and they thought that this old eunuch could take care of the face of the palace, leave them, and help King Qi save face.

After all, I haven't heard of any prince returning a palace maid of their status.

If you want to raise it, it should be raised by the royal palace.

"What? Still not happy? I don't look in the mirror and look at it, a round face, as if our palace owes you, but don't forget, our prince doesn't use you at all. ”

Yes, if the King of Qi really moved them, they should naturally be raised by the palace, and now like this, how can they have the face to stay in the palace and not leave?

The two palace maids were said to be embarrassed, and retreated with red faces.

Shen Qiutan was satisfied, and said with a smile: "Add a dish of stewed oxtail with tomato sauce at noon." ”

Gonggong Cao immediately smiled, this was his favorite dish.

I haven't seen ketchup in any other restaurant or restaurant, and it's really good to marry the princess, and I ate my favorite dish so quickly.

"Princess?" As soon as Yin Ludou came in, he saw harmony in the main hall, especially Gonggong Cao, whose old face smiled like a chrysanthemum, looking like he had got what he wanted.

"Yin Changshi."

"The princess is polite, just call her as before. My subordinates are here to deliver you the account books. ”

The history of the prince is of grade, but he calls himself a subordinate rather than a "lower official", which means that he recognizes himself as a retainer.

Shen Qiutan nodded, and Lu Dou said: "These are the properties of our palace, you can ask the account office to help you reconcile accounts regularly." After speaking, he looked at Bai Zhi and Father-in-law Cao standing in the room, and took out a booklet from his arms: "This one...... Please cherish it. ”

"This is ......" Shen Qiutan opened the account book, turned a few pages at random and immediately closed it, and it was already clear in his heart: "I'm awake." ”

This is all the output of the forces that Li Xuan has secretly cultivated, outside the bright side.

Li Qi left her a lot of assets when she went to Xichuan before, and it was from this account book, Shen Qiutan naturally knew the importance of this account book.

Seeing Shen Qiutan's solemnity, Lu Dou breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "In this case, the subordinates have retired, and there are Cao Gonggong and the stewards in the house, and the matter is related to the outside, and the princess can also summon her subordinates to do it." ”

Shen Qiutan nodded, is this the benefit of having a free love before marriage? Li Xuan's close people are also close to her.

After a while, the housekeeper and the housekeeper's mothers came to see each other.

Shen Qiutan gave a reward as usual, and he was familiar with his face.

There are many servants in the palace, and the composition is extremely complicated, half of them are from the original palace, and the remaining half are some of the people who originally served the king of Han, and some of them are newly rewarded by the palace.

What Shen Qiutan can do now is to install people she can trust at key nodes, as for the beating of "three fires for new officials", she is not in a hurry, she must be familiar with it first.

Before noon, a message came from the front yard, saying that there were guests, and the prince asked the princess to arrange a meal for the guests.

Shen Qiutan asked the little eunuch Shunzi who came to report the news: "Which guests are here?" What are their dietary preferences? ”

Junzi said with a smile: "The prince said, if the princess asks, I will tell you to prepare some casually, and there is no need to deliberately organize the meals for the guests." ”

Li Qian is really ...... Any meal in the world is easy to make, but it is not easy to cook "casually".

"Got it."

When it was time for dinner, lunch was delivered to the outer study.

As soon as the food box was opened, Li Qian knew which dishes were prepared for himself.

Unlike Wei Tingyuan and others, his diet is light, and he doesn't like the chili peppers that Shen Qiutan highly admires, and his preference for meat is also ordinary.

The people in the study include staff, civil officials and military generals, and the most unexpected person is the original son of the Pei family of Zhao Wangdang, Pei Xiu.

"Thank you for your hospitality, these dishes look very different."

There is a saying that you don't get tired of eating, and the Pei family is a very well-established family, and it is inevitable that there are some recipes at the bottom of the box, which can make Pei Xiu say that the difference must be dishes that have not been seen on the market, and others are interested.

In fact, Pei Xiu's original intention was to make a face for Shen Qiutan.

After all, marrying the King of Qi with Shen Qiutan's background is really too high, although these people here dare not say it explicitly, but there is some dissatisfaction in their hearts, at this moment, the meals sent by the princess are appropriate, many of them are dishes that he has never seen, so it is just right for these people to know that Princess Qi is not as unworthy as they think.

Li Qicai didn't care what others thought, he saw his favorite woad and pineapple, although his expression didn't seem to have changed, but his mood was already happy.

It turned out that it was such a joyful thing to receive a meal prepared by his daughter-in-law.

As for the thoughts of others, what does it matter to them?

Could it be that who do you want to marry, and you have to go through the consent of these people?
