"The princess is asking you questions, are you all dumb?" Concubine Sheng feigned anger and said, "Butler, come on, what is going on?" ”

The housekeeper died bitterly in his heart, and the so-called masters and slaves suffered from the law, and they were the ones who were unlucky.

If this matter were left on any of the previous princesses, it would not be a big deal, but this princess is not easy to mess with at the moment. No, if this had been left to any of the previous princesses, it wouldn't have happened at all!

The butler stubbornly said, "In order to facilitate management, it was the servants who asked them to keep those booklets in one place. ”

Li Qing suddenly realized: "I see, then there is no way." ”

Just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, thinking that this matter was just hidden, Li Qing spoke again.

Li asked lightly: "However, the booklet that was burned by fire in the summer this year is now winter, and the snow has fallen, and it has not been sorted out yet?" ”

The anger that everyone had just relieved was raised again.

Concubine Sheng's face did not move, but she pinched her thumb with her index finger under her sleeve - this is the way she is used to alerting herself to keep her face from showing flaws.

The housekeeper was afraid of Li Qing, and he was even more afraid to hear her speak in this tone. Before Li Qing could say anything, he broke out in a cold sweat first. He said cautiously: "There are many artifacts in the palace, and it takes a lot of time to count them, so they haven't been sorted out yet. ”

"You're lazy, aren't you?" Li said casually.

"How could that be?" The housekeeper sneered: "The servants in the house are all neat, and they don't dare to be lazy." ”

"Since you are not lazy, then you are deliberately procrastinating." Li Qing's originally soft voice suddenly became sharp: "You shouldn't be guarding and stealing, worried that as soon as the booklet is made, it will be exposed, so you drag it out and don't rearrange it, right?" ”

As soon as this sentence came out, it startled the housekeeper and the steward.

This kind of thing of self-theft by guards will happen more or less in large households, but no matter whether the housekeeper and the housekeeper have done it or not, Li Qing has now buttoned the hat of "self-theft by guards" on their heads, and they have just destroyed the booklet recording the objects of the palace according to the instructions of the concubine, and they have absolutely no way to prove their innocence.

"Wronged!"

Several people knelt on the ground at the same time, shouting incessantly.

"The concubine is graceful, the slave is wronged."

"The slave is loyal to the concubine and the prince, and he would never dare to do such a thing as a rooster and a dog."

"Please take a look at it!"

Concubine Sheng was overjoyed in her heart, and the princess offended all the housekeepers. The sage said it well: villains are difficult to raise. These minions, although they have a humble status, if they are really offended, it will also be a big trouble.

"Princess, they are all old people in the palace, the mourning family believes in their character, they should not do this kind of thing of rooster and dog thief." Concubine Sheng pretended to persuade.

Several people kneeling on the ground were busy kowtowing: "The concubine is wise, the concubine is wise." ”

Li Qing smiled unhurriedly: "The mother concubine has taught you a lesson." Indeed, Chengya's accusation that they were guarding and stealing was unfounded, but they were also unfounded, the booklet had been burned, there was no comparison with the things in the house, and what they said was also unsubstantiated and untrustworthy. Even if they didn't guard and steal from themselves, but the booklet was burned in their hands, that is, they were not supervised effectively, and they should have been punished, but the mother concubine just said that they are all old people in the palace, and they have worked hard, and Chengya also thinks so. Yes, Chengya thought of a way to make up for their mistakes, and if they did, they wouldn't have to be punished. ”

Concubine Sheng asked vigilantly, "What way?" ”
