Chapter 517

Sanniang sat behind the bookcase and flipped through the stack of account books that were nearly seven-tenths or eight-tenths less than the last time.

"How?" Bai Ying, who was waiting on the side, saw that Sanniang had finished the booklets in a short time, and couldn't help asking.

Sanniang thought about it and divided the ten booklets into two stacks.

Three copies in a stack, seven copies in a stack.

"There are three books that can be read, and most of the remaining seven are made up." Sanniang leaned back in the chair and said with a smile.

Bai Ying took out the three booklets: "Gao Yong, Xia Laosan, and ...... Zhao Fugui? Are these three the only ones who wrote the ledger according to your request? ”

Bai Ying frowned, is there a little less in the number of people? There were 10 of them.

"Isn't this Zhao Fugui the brother-in-law of Yang Ende, Yang Ende did not betray the princess of the county, why did he defect?"

Sanniang is not surprised: "For some people, affordability is the most important thing, and I like this kind of person who knows the times." "It's easy to control.

"Isn't that any of that useful? So what to do? Bai Ying was a little worried.

Sanniang thought about it, and picked out two more from the seven account books: "These two books are better than the other three, and the truth is half mixed." As he spoke, he put the two books into the three real books.

Now, there are five copies left on the fake account book, half on both sides.

Sanniang smiled and took out another one from the fake account book, and now there are only four books left on the fake account book.

Bai Ying glanced at the account book in Sanniang's hand, and it said Chengde Zhuangzi and Yang Ende. In the lower right corner of the ledger there is a small ink stain the size of half a fingernail. It looks like someone has accidentally touched it.

Sanniang tore off the top page of the account book in her hand, and then handed it to Bai Yingdao: "Go, add a cover to this account book, use the same paper." ”

Although Bai Ying didn't understand, it was just a small ink stain. Why did I change it, but I took it immediately. When Bai Ying took Yang Ende's account book back, there was no signature on it and no ink stains. It's not much different from the previous one.

Sanniang nodded, picked up the pen, and re-signed the clean cover according to the private page.

Bai Ying looked over and found that the handwriting rewritten was very similar to the handwriting in the previous book, and he couldn't help but be amazed.

Sanniang took a closer look. Nodding, although her imitation ability is average, it really looks like a thing if she doesn't look closely.

"Alright, you go and have the stewards tell you to wait for me in the council chamber, and I'll be there." Sanniang put the account book that had changed her head and face into the stack of the real account book. Said to Bai Ying.

Bai Ying took the order and went.

Sanniang looked at the account books in front of her and smiled.

Five to five is the zero cut-off point in the heart, six to four......

asked the maids to bring the account book, and Sanniang went to the conference hall. When Sanniang arrived there, several stewards had already arrived, Sanniang sat down on the main seat, and several stewards stepped forward and finished saluting, and stood aside silently.

Sanniang looked at the people below. Four of the six account books were taken out and laid out on the table one by one: "I will reward the account books that I said yesterday that I am satisfied with." Gao Yong, Xia Laosan, Zhao Fugui, and ...... Yang Ender. ”

Yang Ende frowned. looked up at Sanniang.

Sanniang smiled: "Twenty taels of silver per person." ”

The rest of the people couldn't help but stir, and they all looked at Yang Ende angrily, Yang Ende looked at Sanniang in dismay, moved his lips, and finally didn't say anything, lowered his head and thanked the other three together.

Sanniang took out the other two account books: "These two books, Li Bao'er, Hong Dayu...... Although I am not satisfied with the books just now, for the sake of you guys, you have put some thought into it...... Let's reward each person with two taels of silver, and it will be regarded as a blessing money. ”

The two stewards couldn't help but be a little disappointed when they saw that there was a lot difference between two taels and twenty taels, but they thought that they finally had money to take, so they all came up and thanked them.

"As for these four books...... Sanniang's fingers tapped lightly on the account book, and she groaned for a while.

The stewards glanced at the six people over there, sweat broke out on their heads, and their hearts were even more regretful.

"There are no rules, there is no circle, since there is a reward, then there should also be a punishment. I will not fine you twenty taels, but you will be fined two taels of silver. ”

Still twenty taels? That's damning! Two taels of silver is enough to make people feel painful!

"Young lady, this ...... This account book may be when the girl next to you went today, and the little one took it wrong in a hurry and took out the manuscript. If you don't take it again, you won't be wrong this time. Someone had an idea, and pleaded with a smile.

Hearing this, Sanniang glanced at the steward with some suspicion.

Seeing this, the other three stewards also hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, yes, young lady...... The small, the small one was also taken wrong. Please forgive the young lady, and the little one will go back to you...... Send the changed ones over. ”

Sanniang smiled: "This mistake is all together?" Go back and bring me what has been changed, and if it satisfies me, I will not be punished for the money. ”

The four stewards hurriedly withdrew.

Sanniang took care of the housework in the council hall again, and after a while, the four stewards really came back again, and respectfully presented the account books they brought.

Sanniang picked it up and roughly flipped it aside, these account books looked older than the ones they originally handed in, and they should have prepared the bottom accounts. Sure enough, it's all clear and clear.

So the original three defected, and under Sanniang's calculations, they became seven defectors.

Sanniang nodded, and said to Mama Li on the side: "Go to the tent and pay eighty-four taels of silver." Mama Li wanted to say something, but she didn't look at Sanniang and didn't look at her, so she had to retreat.

Sanniang said to the four stewards: "Although you have made up the account books, the reward is not there this time, and I will not punish you with silver." When the four stewards heard this, they were a little discouraged. But it's always good to think that you don't have to pay a penalty.

Wait for Mama Li to come in again. The four stewards who did not have a reward looked at those who had received the reward, and they were naturally extremely uncomfortable in their hearts. Especially looking at Yang Ende's eyes, it is very unkind.

Yang Ende took the silver sent to him by the maid, but he felt a little hot. There was a bitter and indescribable taste, and he tasted it.

Sanniang smiled and instructed the kitchen steward: "The stewards will leave for Zhuangzi in the afternoon, and they will add a few dishes to them at noon today." Go from my account. It's been hard work for them for the past two days. ”

The kitchen steward bowed his head in response, and several stewards hurriedly saluted and thanked him.

Sanniang said: "I have always had clear rewards and punishments, so ...... I hope that when I see you again at the end of this year, you will all be rewarded, not fined. When the time comes, those whose accounts are not good will give money to those who have done well. ”

A few stewards, you look at me, I look at you, and they all bowed their heads and said yes.

Sanniang nodded: "It's not too early." You still have to go in the afternoon, so go back and rest now. ”

And the stewards bowed down and withdrew.

Sanniang saw that the matter was almost over, so she also got up and asked the maids to take the account books and go back to their yards. As soon as she returned to her own territory, Bai Ying couldn't help but be happy: "Miss." You're amazing! Originally, there were only three people, but now it has become seven, and the other three people, except for that Yang Ende, must not dare to cheat in the future. But even if it is that Yang Steward, it is difficult to support it alone, if he goes wrong in the future, it will not be easy to clean him up? ”

Sanniang smiled, still holding her embroidered basket, and sat in a well-lit place to do embroidery work.

Failure to punish the public is the most permissive. She was willing to bet that if she was to deal with her by the stewards of these Zhuangzi today, the stewards in the palace would immediately follow suit. In this way, the princess of the county will be able to come forward.

And it is not difficult to deal with the subordinates who are grouping together to resist the newcomers. After all, everyone has their own interests, as long as they are divided and dissolved, and then each one is broken. They will fall apart until they are broken. This was taught to her by her father in her previous life.

Even if no one defects at the beginning, it doesn't matter, seize their weaknesses and force them to fall. As long as one person is broken through the defenses, the rest will not be a problem. Combined with rewards and punishments, artificially help them draw a demarcation, and even the strongest alliance will eventually disband.

Sanniang thought that she seemed to have really learned a lot of things before, but she had never had the opportunity to use them.

Looking at the ink-colored purse in her hand, Sanniang's eyes were gentle, and she was careful and focused on every stitch.

Even if she knows a lot of things, she doesn't feel that this life is buried now.

When you meet the right person, even if you have the ability and wisdom to maintain the home of the two and make your life happy and stable, it is also very fulfilling.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

And when the stewards came out of the council chamber, they all had different expressions.

The four stewards who finally handed over the account book were the first to challenge Yang Ende: "Steward Yang, hello!" The brothers trust you, but you end up being tricked like this! ”

Yang Ende said helplessly: "I have already shown you the account book yesterday, and today the young lady is ......."

Before he finished speaking, Gao Yong said, "Okay, Brother Yang." If you do it, you do it, what's not to admit it? You showed us your ledger yesterday, but ...... What you handed in today is not the one you handed in yesterday! ”

Everyone looked at Yang Ende with disdain.

Yang Ende frowned and explained: "What I gave to that maid today is the one I gave you yesterday. ”

Gao Yong pursed his lips: "I knew you wouldn't admit it." Yesterday, after we looked at your ledger, we were afraid that you would play it again, so I deliberately made a mark with a pen in the lower right corner of the ledger. However, there is no mark on your account book that the young lady has laid out today. This means that you have replaced the book of accounts that you showed us today, and it has become true! Thankfully, I didn't believe you, otherwise I would...... Hehe, where is the reward of twenty taels to take? ”

The two stewards who only took two taels of silver and the stewards who didn't get a penny looked very bad. When they saw Gao Yong doing that yesterday, they didn't think it was necessary, they didn't want to, they really knew people and faces, but they didn't know their hearts!

Li Qingshan is the one who didn't get a penny: "I still persuaded a few people to believe in you yesterday, I don't want to fall for your way!" You're a two-faced villain. I want to please the young lady, and I want to deal with the princess of the county, and then I will play a few of us as monkeys! ”

Yang Ende wanted to plead. But looking at everyone's distrustful eyes, he couldn't help but be very discouraged.

"What else do you do with him? In the future, we don't trust him, lest we all be fined, and he will secretly count the silver behind his back. Walk. Didn't the young lady say that she wanted to add food to us, I will go to the big wine, and invite everyone to drink a few cups today. Gao Yong took Li Qingshan and another steward with a dissatisfied face.

The rest of the people also followed Gao Yong.

There was only one Yang Ender left. and his brother-in-law Zhao Fugui.

Zhao Fugui looked at the people who had gone away, then at Yang Ende, and said, "Brother, where are we going?" ”

Yang Ende glared at him: "Why don't you go with you?" What to do with this little man of mine? ”

Zhao Fugui was a little embarrassed: "I originally thought that I would write a real account by myself, and it wouldn't be in the way, and I didn't expect that they would all turn against the water." If I had known that it would ruin your business, I would not have coveted the money. I can go to Fengtai to be a steward. It's also because you helped with the dots. I ......"

Yang Ende waved his hand, didn't he know his brother-in-law's virtue? It's useless to say anything now.

Yang Ende turned his head and glanced at the council room, with a wry smile on his face.

He was put on the spot by the young lady, this is the new master. It's not a fuel-efficient lamp! If the princess wants to return to power, I'm afraid it will be difficult!

"Let's go, I'll invite you to drink." Yang Ende sighed and said to Zhao Fugui.

"Then the princess of the county, how do you explain?" Zhao Fugui said cautiously, although he was greedy for money, he didn't want to see this brother-in-law lose power, otherwise who would he rely on to promote him in the future?

"What to do? What else can I do? Honestly go back to Zhuangzi to do things. Yang Ende shook his head.

After the princess got the news, she was so angry that she almost lifted the table.

still let Mama Ma, who came to see her secretly, persuade: "Princess." You are angry, if you let the old princess know that you lose your temper again, I am afraid that you will be angry again, and the people in this Buddhist hall are not all our people. ”

Although she was not hindered every time she came to see the princess, a lot of money was scattered, and these new maids and women reached out and asked for money. If you don't have money, you won't let her in.

The princess of the county held back her anger: "You go to that Yang Ende again and let him think of it!" Don't forget who promoted him and his brother-in-law to be stewards. If he dares to eat inside and out, this princess will let him walk around without eating! ”

For these things in Zhuangzi, she didn't pay much attention to them before, if even these people have defected, how can she be willing!

Mama Ma hurriedly responded: "Steward Yang is still on your side with the princess of the county, but the rest of the stewards are really unreliable, and the young lady is also very good at her means." ”

The princess snorted coldly: "That's because he has no ability, and I gave him less benefits every year?" He can't even control a few people! Saying that, the princess also glared at Mama Ma, "Don't think that he is your distant nephew, you just say good things to him, you go to contact the outside world on weekdays, presumably he has also given you a lot of benefits." But remember, if something goes wrong with him, you don't have to think about it! ”

Mama Ma had a bitter face, was it easy for her to pay money to visit the princess of the county?

"Alright, you can get out. Tell him that if they are late for the year-end gifts, and the account books will continue to be fake, I don't believe that I can't lose this person to her! The princess said fiercely.

Mama Ma answered.

The princess said again: "How are Huilan and An'er?" ”

Mama Ma thought for a while: "The master and slave maid of Huilan County can rarely be seen, and the old princess has issued a death order to prohibit us from approaching, and the grandmother from the palace is also very powerful." Last time, the slave maid deliberately asked Ju'er, the maid next to the county lord of Huilan, to find the prince to save the county lord, but the prince left without saying anything in the end. ”

The princess frowned: "Didn't you say that Whelan is suffering?" If so, how could An'er not save Whelan? ”

Mama Ma glanced at the princess of the county: "At the beginning, when the county lord of Huilan was locked, he did always bang on the door, and sometimes he would suddenly scream. But it's been good lately, there hasn't been any big movement, and I heard that the county lord is still a lot fatter now. ”

The princess of the county gritted her teeth: "They must have thought of a way to make Huilan have a hard time, the old princess is really ruthless, Huilan is also her granddaughter, how can she be trampled on like this!" ”

Mama Ma lowered her head and didn't dare to speak.

The princess walked around in place, feeling more and more depressed: "No, I must go out quickly!" What are you still standing here? Go find that Yang Ender! ”

Mama Ma saw that the princess was about to lose her temper again. Frightened, he quickly retreated.

Although the old princess asked the princess of the county to come here to cultivate her self-cultivation, the temper of the princess of the county is getting worse day by day.

When Yang Ende came back from eating, he saw that Mama Ma was still waiting in his room, and he naturally knew why Mama Ma came. I couldn't help but sigh and stepped forward to call my cousin.

Mama Ma told Yang Ende what the princess of the county said, and Yang Ende frowned and was very embarrassed.

Mama Ma saw this. said unhappily: "What, after taking the young lady's bounty, you forgot whose surname you are with?" ”

Yang Ende smiled bitterly: "It's really those stewards who don't trust me anymore." They...... Ay! "The stewards also have families, so naturally whoever gives food will go to whomever they want. The benefits promised by the princess of the county, where is it really good to hold in your hands?

"I have already explained the matter to you, and you also know the temper of the princess of the county. Don't hurt me. Mama Ma frowned.

Yang Ende sighed: "My nephew knows, just do your best." ”

Mama Ma left satisfied.

Yang Ende watched as the people behind him were shut up. Smile wryly. I knew that he would be honest in his stewardship, so why meddle in the inner court battles of these nobles? I don't know if it's too late to regret it now. Thinking of having to do it again at the end of the year, Yang Ende couldn't say what he was suffering about.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

"All gone?" The old princess asked Mama Zhang.

Mama Zhang smiled: "The stewards have all gone back." In the end, most of the people also turned to the young lady and handed over the account book, princess. Now you are relieved, right? ”

The old princess leaned back on the couch and thought, "This child is indeed a smart one. ”

Aunt Fan, who was beating the old princess's legs, looked up and smiled: "It is worthy of being taught by you, the princess, and the young lady still has your shadow back then." ”

The old princess glared at Aunt Fan: "Don't shoot on the back!" ”

Aunt Fan smiled and continued to bow her head and press the old princess's legs.

In the afternoon, news suddenly came from the palace, saying that the queen mother let the old princess enter the palace when she was free.

It's just that it was getting late, so the old princess decided to enter the palace early the next morning.

After Sanniang got the news, although she was a little curious about why she had just entered the palace, the queen mother had to recruit the old princess into the palace two days later. But because she wants to avoid the mess in the palace. In the evening, he claimed that he had some cold. So on the second day, she naturally didn't have to follow the old princess into the palace.

After the old princess came back, there was no movement over there, and Sanniang guessed that it might not be a big deal.

Another day passed, and Sanniang went to say hello to the old princess.

"Are you feeling better?" The old princess asked Sanniang.

Sanniang said with a smile: "It's not a big problem, it must have been drenched when it rained that day, and it was good to drink two bowls of ginger soup." ”

The old princess advised: "The most important thing for you now is to take care of your body." Don't get sick and take medicine. It is a medicine that is three parts poisonous, in case you happen to be pregnant at this time, it will not be good for the child. ”

“……”

Sanniang interrupted: "Why did grandmother enter the palace again yesterday?" Haven't you only been there for two days? What's going on in the palace? ”

The old princess said: "Well, the Queen Mother told me about the marriage of Prince Li's son. ”

Xuanyun?

"Didn't you say that Prince Li wanted Miss Wei to be her daughter-in-law?" There are a lot of rumors about Sanniangji recently, but Mrs. Wei has nothing to say, and she rarely goes to Prince Li's mansion, which is the wishful thinking of Prince Li.

"I heard that Mrs. Wei has already chosen someone for Miss Wei, and Princess Li can't want her niece to be her daughter-in-law." The old princess took a sip of tea and said disapprovingly.

Wei Yunying has already said that he is a person? Sanniang was stunned.

However, she also felt that Wei Yunying was a little inappropriate with the Xuanyun Shizi of the Sassy Bao, but Wei Yunying had liked Xuanyun Shizi since she was a child, she must be very sad now, Sanniang sighed.

"Which lady does the Queen Mother fall fond of?" Sanniang asked with some curiosity.

The old princess had a smile on her face: "The queen mother has taken a fancy to the eldest granddaughter of Duke Chengguo. ”

Sanniang was stunned, Cheng Guogong? That's not ......

Mama Zhang on the side smiled and said to Sanniang: "Isn't the eldest granddaughter of Duke Cheng Guo the niece and granddaughter of our princess?" ”
