Chapter 153: Reckoning

Shende Hall is no longer the Shende Hall that Xu Meitang knows, and the main hall is full of account books. It's pretty neat, but I can't really find a place to put my feet.

The eldest princess sat on the main seat, and behind her stood Miaoli and Li Youfu, which was not a good match, Xu Meitang couldn't control the drumming in her heart.

After finding a position in the house that could barely stand, Xu Meitang saluted the eldest princess, "Greetings to Her Royal Highness the eldest princess." ”

"I'm fine, how are you?" The eldest princess asked kindly.

"The concubine is also very good, thank you Your Highness for your concern."

"The last time I came, it seems that you sent someone to serve, where is the person you sent?" Although the eldest princess was questioning, her tone was still very kind.

The man who had been sent had run into trouble and had been driven away. Xu Meitang didn't say stupidly to the eldest princess to tell Miaoli, "I didn't pick the right person before, so I randomly pointed two people over to serve." Today, I asked Ya Po to send someone over, and I was about to ask Miss Miao Li to come and pick it out herself. ”

Very good.

The eldest princess nodded slightly, her eyes looked up and down on her, and she could see that Xu Meitang was furious in her heart.

Xu Meitang couldn't stand it, so she asked, "Does Your Highness have any other orders?" ”

The eldest princess was silent for a moment, then pointed to the ledger on the ground and asked, "What do you guess these are?" ”

Xu Meitang glanced down and saw that there were all pokes from the household department on it. She is also the daughter of an official family, and someone knows what it is.

"It should be the account book of the household department."

The eldest princess asked expressionlessly: "You are now in the housekeeper, you should be able to settle accounts, right?" ”

Xu Meitang couldn't figure out what she was going to do, so she could only tell the truth and nodded slightly.

The eldest princess picked up Miaoli and put the abacus on the table and handed it to Xu Meitang, "Take it, let's do it." ”

Xu Meitang took the abacus, still apprehensive in her heart, and asked, "What does His Highness mean ......?"

The eldest princess was overjoyed, and said coldly: "I mean to let you count, don't you understand?" ”

"So much...... The concubine is alone, and I don't know when it will be counted. And the concubines of the household department may not be able to understand it. ”

The eldest princess said politely: "It doesn't matter, how much can you understand, I don't blame you for miscalculation." ”

Xu Meitang had no choice, so she didn't dare to excuse herself, so she took an account book and started to do it.

There is a reason why it is said that this is an old account, there are too many entries, and the clues are complicated, and most people can't figure it out. Miaoli also studied for a long time before she understood the doorway.

Xu Meitang watched it for a long time, and she didn't even dial a bead from the abacus. It's really a dog biting a turtle and there's nowhere to put it.

After about a stick of incense, Xu Meitang's account didn't count anywhere, but he broke out in a cold sweat. The momentum of the eldest princess is too strong, and people can't help but tremble.

The eldest princess didn't have time to spend time with her here, so she asked directly, "Can you count it?" If you can't figure it out, forget it. ”

Finally relieved, Xu Meitang put down the account book and said: "The concubine body can't be calculated, it's the concubine body is useless." ”

The eldest princess said slowly: "You are not at all, I am still waiting for you to figure it out, pour a little water on the results calculated for you, you haven't even completed the first step." ”

finally got to the point, knowing what she was for, but Xu Meitang's heart was even more worried. "Your Highness, there may be some misunderstanding. It's just that the next person accidentally fell down when he entered the door, and he didn't intentionally pour water on the ledger. ”

"Oh." The eldest princess pretended to understand, and said, "I can also pretend to pour water unintentionally." You say it's unintentional, it's unintentional? ”

Xu Meitang was silent.

"To be honest, I haven't seen someone as stupid as you in two or three years. If you send someone to serve, you will send someone to make trouble, which is clearly provoking me. The eldest princess raised her voice, "Is she doing it for herself?" It's not to keep the status of King Qin! You sent someone over to make trouble, as if you were not from the Qin Palace, did you forget what kind of princess you are! ”

Xu Meitang's legs were weak, and she knelt directly on the ground, "The concubine knows that she is wrong." ”

"It's over if you know it's wrong? What else? ”

"I won't dare to be a concubine in the future."

The eldest princess didn't bother to look at her, "Extremely stupid!" Is it over just knowing that you are wrong? ”

Xu Meitang instantly understood, "The concubine must have sent that unruly slave over, but it is up to His Highness to dispose of it." ”

"If you don't come to this set, you will blame the minions if something happens. The minion is not doing things according to you, and the minion is recruiting whoever provokes whom. I can't think of a way for me to think of it, and when they finish clearing these accounts, I'll send you these books, and you can slowly calculate them for me, when you will be able to calculate them clearly, and when they will finish them. ”

"Your Highness, this ......"

Xu Meitang looked at the box in this place, and the book she was looking at just now, and she couldn't understand it at all. With her own strength, it is estimated that she will not be able to count until the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve.

The eldest princess didn't speak, just looked at her, her eyes showed a fierce light, and her eyes could kill people, Xu Meitang swallowed back the words that came to her lips again. "The concubine obeys."

Xu Meitang used to rely on her identity to bully people, and the eldest princess can bully her now, which is originally a layer-by-layer relationship.

The account has to be calculated one by one, and now the eldest princess is ready to calculate the second one. However, she plans to give Xu Meitang a chance, if she is obedient, she can choose not to count this second account.

"Is there a suitable courtyard for her in your palace?" The eldest princess pointed to Miao Li and asked.

Xu Meitang glanced at Miaoli, kneeling and standing with her, without any rules. With a clenched fist in her sleeve, after the eldest princess is gone, she must give her all back.

"No," Xu Meitang replied very simply, "It is not proper to live alone in a courtyard according to the identity of a girl." ”

The eldest princess's eyes swept over Xu Meitang, this is a person who will not seize the opportunity.

The eldest princess said lightly: "In that case, let her live here." Anyway, she has to do things here during the day to avoid the trouble of running around. When your prince comes back, they also live in the same courtyard for two people, which is not unruly. ”

It's not unruly!

This is the main courtyard of the entire palace, and it is a place where the master can live. If Miao Li lives here, then what is she a housewife?

No matter how scared Xu Meitang is, she has to defend her position, "It's still not in accordance with the rules, this is the prince's courtyard." No one can move in without the king's order. ”

The eldest princess asked, "What did you say?" ”

Xu Meitang's confidence was obviously insufficient, and she still said: "The concubine said that this is the prince's courtyard, and no one can move in without the prince's order." ”

The eldest princess's voice was a little colder, "The meaning of letting you say it again is not that I didn't hear it clearly, but I want to give you a chance to change your statement." ”

Xu Meitang took a breath of cool air, held the corner of her clothes tightly, and told herself not to be afraid. He opened his mouth again and said: "The concubine body doesn't want to change the concubine's statement, this is the Qin Palace, not the Eldest Princess's Mansion, this is the family affairs of the palace, will His Highness be too lenient?" ”

The eldest princess gave Xu Meitang a very high four-character evaluation in her heart, and her courage was commendable.

After she has today's status, she has never heard anyone say such things to her, and it feels quite fresh.

The eldest princess played with her fingers and said as if unintentionally, "Your father is in his fifties this year, and he is really not young." As a prime minister, he has to deal with a lot of things every day, do you think it's better to change him to a vacant position, or just let her return to the field. ”

Xu Meitang was almost stupid, because she made Zuo Xiang lose his official position, that was really ......

"Your Highness......"

The eldest princess added, "I don't mean to threaten you, but to tell you that there is nothing in this world that I can't control." Since it's your family matter, I'll ask your opinion again, can she move in? ”

"Yes." Xu Meitang said these two words very reluctantly.

"Very good, it would be nice if you were so obedient earlier." After the eldest princess finished speaking, she picked up the teacup in her hand, and a cup of tea was poured directly on Xu Meitang's face.

Xu Meitang was splashed and trembled, and her head was dripping.

The eldest princess threw the teacup back on the table, clapped her hands and said, "The water has been cold for so long, and I originally prepared a cup of hot tea for you." ”

This is revenge for that cup of tea.

Xu Meitang imposed it on Miaoli, and the eldest princess got it back.

Xu Meitang tried not to let the outside water flow into her eyes, and let the water in her eyes flow outside.

The eldest princess stood up and said, "I'm leaving." You will retaliate after I'm gone, but before you make a move, think about what it would be like to use those tricks on yourself. ”

The eldest princess turned back to Miao Li and said, "Let's have a snack." ”

The four words were full of helplessness, and after saying that, the eldest princess walked out the door, still with that gesture, there was no need to send her.

After Miao Li watched the eldest princess go out, she reached out and pulled Xu Meitang, who was still dripping water on the ground, up, "Princess......"

Xu Meitang stood up by herself and pushed her back fiercely. He could breathe fire in his eyes, looked at Miaoli fiercely for a while, and then walked out in embarrassment.

It was time for there to be only two people left in the house, Li Youfu came over, and the whole person worshiped the eldest princess, "Sister, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is so powerful, I am no longer afraid of her." ”

Miaoli is also very helpless, which will only intensify the contradictions, but cannot solve everything. But she couldn't live up to their kindness in wanting to protect her, Miao Li smiled at Li Youfu with difficulty, and then said, "Your Highness has always been very good. ”

But I couldn't stop worrying in my heart, Xu Meitang would definitely hate her even more. This matter will definitely not end here, Xu Meitang must have a follow-up move. It's just that it won't be so blatant, and then she will be even more defenseless.

After getting such a result, Li Youfu seemed to be much more excited than her, and said lively: "Sister, don't stand here, I'll call someone to help you move things." ”

Li Youfu is really happy, Miaoli no longer has to live in that small broken yard.

Miaoli was not happy at all, and she didn't know what was waiting for her tomorrow.
