Chapter 150 Butterfly Hairpin

(daily watch + pink 242)

It rained yesterday, and I stayed in the house for a day with Yiyu, and today it was sunny, Li Tai went to the study early in the morning to deal with the backlog of business that had been trapped in the palace for a few days, and the breakfast was set, and Yiyu sent Pingyun to the east of the courtyard to ask, Li Tai replied that she let her eat first, it was still early, and she did not force him to eat with him, but only asked Pingyun to send a pot of warm water.

She had the intention of cooling off the few people waiting outside the courtyard, so she ate slowly and methodically for half an hour before she asked the maid to pass a few of them in, and waited in the hall of the small building next door.

The four big maids, one of them did not fall, all wearing pink shirts and gowns, tunic skirts, standard maid dress, not as prominent as she saw on the second day of her wedding, I think she rewarded Rong Yi with the whip, and taught them some lessons, and the other four on the side were Chen Qu and others she brought from Puzhenyuan.

"The slaves and maids visit the princess, and the princess is blessed and well."

Pingtong helped Yiyu to sit down on the mahogany platform three feet above the ground, added a backrest and cushions to make her sit more comfortable, knelt behind her back and pinched her shoulders, Pinghui took off her silk shoes, smoothed the corners of her skirt, took the fragrant tea in the little maid's hand and served it to her, knelt at her feet and knocked her legs.

Such an aristocratic style, although enjoyed, it is not voluntary, the palace has the rules of the palace, Li Tai is already a quirk, she wants to have no appearance, call the next person to see, it is not nothing to find people to talk about, maverick things, it is better to do less.

"Get up." Yi Yu swept over the few people who were squatting down and saluting, "Did you use it too early?" ”

"Back to the princess, the slaves and maids haven't eaten yet."

These four are very neat and uniform, Yi Yu looks at their figures, except for Rong Yi's face under the fat powder is slightly pale, the other three can't see the appearance of being beaten, I think Li Tai punished the twenty whips and was fooled like this, she was angry and wanted to laugh, angry that these girls took Qiao, even the housekeeper gave three points, and laughed at these people who couldn't figure out their own pounds, she was only caught in the garden that day, and the other few people were treated as nothing, just to make a show, it was better than Yang Fengyin and disobey her to see it.

"What about Chen Qu, didn't you come over earlier?"

was asked by the name of the widow, Chen Qu was flattered, hung his head and took a step forward and replied respectfully, "Back to the princess, the master has no meal, how dare the slave use it first, it rained yesterday, I was supposed to come to greet him, but I was stopped by Steward Li, and I went back to the outside of the courtyard, and the princess forgave me." ”

She lived in the house for a few days, but she saw what is called the royal relatives, such a large mansion, hundreds of people, food and clothing, most of which she has never heard of, and the rules are scared to death, and she has not had stage fright by Mrs. Zhou. let her know that in this huge palace, only the relic jade is her backer.

"It's okay," Yi Yu took a sip of tea, the incense petals picked from the hibiscus garden in the early morning were particularly fragrant, and the filtered rainwater brewed was very pleasant, "You came here so early in the morning, what do you have to say?" ”

Chen Qu didn't speak, and was robbed by Rong Qin on the side, "There was an accident in the house a few days ago, and the slaves and maids were very anxious, afraid of disturbing your peace, only when they heard that the matter was over, they dared to come over to say hello, and I hope you and the prince are safe and sound." ”

The maid spoke properly, and Yu Yu nodded, "It's hard for you to have this heart," and turned to Ping Tong and said, "The gift given by King Han yesterday, I see that the strings of coral incense beads are good, and the pendant fans are also exquisitely embroidered, and they will be picked up later, and they will be rewarded together." ”

"Yes."

"Thank you, Princess, for the reward."

These things cost dozens of taels to buy outside, and there is still no price, Yi Yu is looking at it, and the real joy of this reward is that she brought four girls from Puzhen Garden, and thanked her happily, the four in the Wei Wangfu, Xu is used to seeing jewelry, three made a smile, and the goose egg face plate called Rong Xing didn't even put out a fake smile, so thinking about it, she saw a few people wearing it, it was a whim, how could she expect to take such a closer look, it almost made her happy

Others don't say it, the delicate green butterfly that is still plain exposed on the top of Shan Narong Xing's head, dotted with emerald wings, and the pair of red butterflies she wears on the back of her head are exactly the same style. If she didn't know that this batch of jewelry was specially made for her by Li Tai before marriage, it would be just that she had bought the same as someone else, but this clearly said that there was a unique pair of things, and she actually saw one on someone else's head, and she co-wrote what Li Tai specially prepared for her, and it turned out that others could also share a share, which is a bad thing

The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, so she smiled and put the teacup on the table with a "bang".

Seeing this, Pingtong Pinghui looked at each other, and looked down, the head of the jade was combed by Pinghui in the morning, and at a glance he found the green butterfly, and he glared at the moment, Pingtong found the hairpin one step slower than her, and figured it out, and suddenly changed his face, and secretly scolded this group of damn things, daring to bury the master like this, and fortunately the master wore this hairpin in the courtyard, if you want to show it to outsiders, the princess of the Wei Wangfu is the same as the next person, not to give people a joke to death.

This is what they have seen, and what they have not seen does not know how many things are the same as their masters

But Yi Yu didn't make a sound, the two of them were so angry, and they didn't make a sound first, the room was quiet, and the maids standing below all felt that something was wrong, and some had the courage to raise their eyes to look, but none of them found the pair of red butterflies on Yu Yu's back bun.

Li Tai came out of the study, heard that the next person said that Yi Yu was in the hall, assigned Ah Sheng to go out to do things, and brought the deputy chief Sun De to look for him, as soon as he entered the door, he found that the atmosphere in the room was stiff, Pingtong Pinghui saw her coming, so he moved to the side, knelt up and saluted him.

"Lord Wang."

Hearing this, a group of maids also turned their heads, either smiling or nervously bowing their waists, "Slaves and maids see the prince, the prince is fine." ”

Yi Yu saw their faces, naturally did not miss the excitement in the eyes of Rong Yi and Rong Xing and the shyness on their faces, listening to their obviously delicate voices compared to greeting themselves just now, and remembering their identity as "people in the tent of King Wei", and then looking at the same butterfly hairpin, there was a spasm in the stomach.

Sun Delai, the eunuch, stood up with his head lowered and his eyebrows were pleasing under the beams, Li Tai walked straight to Yiyu's side, he was tall and long-legged, and he could sit next to her if he didn't take off his boots and sat on the mahogany platform, looked at her obviously distracted face, and asked, "What do you think?" ”

Yi Yu took a breath, suppressed the disgusting energy, and shook his head at him with the corners of his mouth, "It's okay, you just left for a while, are you done?" ”

Knowing that her problem with holding back her words could not be changed in a day or two, Li Tai didn't ask her again, and glanced sideways at Pingtong, "What's wrong?" ”

"Back to the words of the prince," Pingtong was about to answer, when he saw Yu Yu turn his head and look at her, hesitated, swallowed the words to his mouth, and said in a muffled voice: "It's nothing." ”

Their master and servant were in the same tone, but Li Tai didn't just forget it, turned around and looked at the group of people below, "You say." ”

The eight maids were also puzzled, and Chen Qu and a few people said loudly: "The slave doesn't know. ”

Someone from the few big maids in the palace over there stood up and said politely: "Back to the prince, the slaves and maids are here to greet the master, the princess rewarded the slaves and maids with a few things in front of her, and she turned her face and became annoyed, and the slaves and maids don't know what's wrong with the princess." ”

It's also a coincidence, it was Rong Xing who wore a butterfly hairpin who said this, and she dared to take eye medicine like this in front of Yi Yu, the three masters and servants are all smart people, how can you not hear that she is alluding to Yu Yu's moodiness.

This made Yiyu frown, Pingtong's face darkened, Pinghui glared, and at this time, Li Tai asked Pingtong Pinghui again:

"Did she say that?"

If you talk about mental skills, the population of the entire palace can't match one Li Tai, and two sentences provoked them to speak, Pinghui couldn't hold her breath, and knelt down in front of Li Tai with a "poof" with her skirt.

"Ask the prince to call the shots."

Yi Yu persuaded: "Pinghui, what are you doing, get up and talk quickly." Pinghui didn't listen to her, and knelt there waiting for Li Tai's words.

Taidao.

"The slave maid knows that our young lady is helpless, and marrying into the palace is a high climb, but no matter how she is the master of this mansion, she should be respected and respected, but the slave maid clearly sees that there are a few people in this mansion when our young lady is the master, and the young lady's words are not worth being a slave, and someone in the newlywed dares to wear red shoes to collide with our young lady," Pinghui said sourly, thinking that Yi Yu had been busy sleeplessly a few days ago, and the pitiful appearance of her waking up from her dream that morning came to her mind, and her eyes were red without saying a few words:

"Miss doesn't care about them, so it's treated as a soft pinch, and it's only been a few days since I saw it, and even a subordinate can wear the same as our miss, isn't this a bad abuse of our miss?"

Yi Yu was a little annoyed in her heart, so she lowered her eyes and stared at the lotus picture on the skirt without saying a word, she didn't see Li Tai next to her looking at her clothes, and she didn't see Na Rongyi looking at her three sisters dressing, so she stepped forward and said angrily to Pinghui:

"What is Sister Pinghui saying, but she is referring to Sang scolding Huai and saying how many of us? Sister Rong Yi wore the wrong red shoes that day, but it was not intentional, the princess is the master, the slaves and maids are servants, where do you have the courage to abuse the master, and insist on deducting this trumped-up charge on our heads, but we don't follow, Lord Wang," Rong Xing screamed aggrievedly, and then knelt on the ground, "The slaves and maids have been waiting by the prince's side since the palace, and it has been seven or eight years since the establishment of the mansion. ”

"Ask the prince to be the master of the slaves." With this Rong Xing heading, Rong Yi also knelt down after him, and the other two hesitated for a moment, but they didn't move.

"Are you still polite?" Ping Hui glared at him, "You have all been caught twice, and you dare to quibble, then you say, your head-"

"Pinghui" Yu Yu scolded, thinking about Pinghui's words, turned his head to Li Taidao, "Your Highness, you can go and eat breakfast first, just leave it to me here." ”

"Lord, Lord, can you go, if you go, the slaves and maids don't know what it will be like to be beaten to death by the princess" said this, since Rong Yi, who was afraid after being beaten that day.

Yi Yu really felt that it was a loss to deal with these subordinates, but listening to this sentence, even if she was a clay man, she was forced to get angry, and what woman was willing to slander her in front of her sweetheart?

"Pinghui, don't kneel, go and find Lu Dong, you just tell him about the matter here." A bad account hidden under the skin of King Wei's mansion, it is better to choose a day than to hit the sun, she will turn it out today and let it bask in the sun.

Hui glared at the two kneeling on the ground again, and trotted away with her skirt in hand.

Seeing her out of the house, Yu Yu turned to Li Tai again, and was worried about how to explain the matter to him, when he suddenly raised his hand and flicked it behind her head, and when he stopped it again, there was one more thing in his hand, not the butterfly hairpin that caused trouble, but something

"Your Highness?" Yi Yu was stunned for a moment, watching him play with the red butterfly as usual.

"Sun De come, go and call everyone." Li Tai's voice was lukewarm, so that people couldn't hear the joy and anger, but Yiyu just knew that he was in a bad mood at this time, very bad.

The old eunuch snorted, trotted out with neat legs and feet, Rong Yi Rong Xing and others also saw the red butterfly that Li Tai held in his hand, he was stunned, when his face changed, Rong Xing reached out in a panic and touched the side of his head, as soon as he touched the butterfly body, he trembled, his eyes rolled back and forth, he bit his lip hard, collapsed his face, knelt two steps forward, and kowtowed to Li Tai with a wailing voice:

"The prince forgives the sin, the slave and maid really don't know that this hairpin is the same as the princess, but the month before yesterday with Rong Yi's sister went to the Internal Affairs Bureau to check, the slave and maid saw that this hairpin looked good and accepted it, and I didn't know that this was the same as the object prepared by the new princess, if you want to know, the slave and maid would never dare to accept it."

This Rong Xing is really a trickster, and in a few words, he pushed the responsibility to the internal affairs department of the palace, but in this way, the words were heard in the ears of Li Tai and Yi Yu, but the tone changed-

"Your Royal Highness," Yi Yuming knew that he shouldn't be angry, but thinking that this pair of best products were all made by Li Tai, his heart was so sour, so he didn't get angry:

"The objects that were co-authored for me turned out to be leftovers picked by others."

There was a loud bang, Li Tai punched heavily on the tea case, which shook the hearts of everyone in the hall, and Yu Yu bore the brunt of it, startled, intellectually knew that he was not coming at himself, but emotionally he reacted first, his nose was sore, his legs were stretched, he got on the mahogany platform with his bare feet, found the door, and before he raised his feet, there was an extra arm on his waist, and in a blink of an eye, he was fished back, sitting on his lap, his back was close to his hard chest, and his feet were off the ground.

"Where are you going?"

With so many people standing in the room, he was holding him in his arms, looking at the surprise in those eyes, Yi Yu was ashamed and annoyed, and he didn't dare to move, so he only lowered his voice and said, "Quick, let go, what does this look like." ”

Li Tai didn't care about it at all, swept the people below with cold eyes, and whispered in her ear, "But you were wronged?" ”

"What grievances, tell me to come down." As soon as he finished speaking, he was strangled on his waist, and he heard a whisper in his ear, "It's not honest yet." ”

After Li Tai finished speaking, he didn't test the thickness of her face again, held her waist and put her at his side, only held her left hand, and told her not to make her temperament go again.

Pingtong was still angry with those dogs and people, but seeing their behavior, he had already secretly laughed, poured tea with great eyes, and served a cup of it to each person.

And the maids standing below, not to mention Chen Qu and others who are married, are said to have been with Li Tai for seven or eight years, and Rong Yi has never seen Li Tai like this, so it is impossible to see that he is favored by the new princess, that is, he is blind with a pair of eyes, and the others are okay, that Rong Yi and Rong Xing are already white-faced, they have been in the palace, and they are most aware of a man's favor for a woman, what it represents.

"Master, you dissipate your anger," Pingtong took the pedal and put it under the feet of a pair of feet that the jade was hanging on the side of the mahogany table, "The slave maid will go and see if the bird's nest porridge in the kitchen is boiled, and I will give you a bowl." ”

“．．． Go ahead and serve one more bowl. ”

The palace is very large, and it is not easy to find people, but it took Sun Delai a quarter of an hour to find all the people, three chief managers, two stewards in charge of internal affairs, and two goldsmiths used in the palace, all of a sudden the hall was congested, not counting the few servants and guards standing outside the door, just waiting for Lu Dong.

Seeing this battle, the person with a ghost in his heart was afraid, Li Tai didn't speak, and Rong Xing, who was playing tricks before, didn't dare to say anything, Yi Yu looked down at her and didn't know what she was thinking, took the small bowl of jade face in Ping Tong's hand, handed it to Li Tai, and said deliberately:

"Here, you can also dissipate your anger, don't provoke the liver fire again, but my fault."

Let her take advantage of her mouth, Li Tai took it and drank it, Yi Yu was stirring the soup with a spoon, Lu Dong entered the door with his head down, followed by two attendants, holding two stacks of account books in his hands.

"Lord, princess."

With Lu Dong, a good hand at checking accounts, he reported them one by one, and clearly spread the account leaks of the Wei Wangfu in front of everyone, even if Yi Yu was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but be surprised.

Good guy, these four big maids, in addition to wearing, actually spend 600 yuan every month, which accounts for one-third of the monthly expenditure of the palace 1,800 yuan, even if she was in the Guogong Mansion, she only had 20 taels of silver a month

Yi Yu was surprised at first, and then uncomfortable to think, how could such a large amount of account expenditure be leaked without Li Tai's acquiescence? Does he still have the heart to pamper these few?

This is really wronged Li Tai, the palace's monthly fixed income is more than 2,000 yuan, it looks like the boss is a sum of silver, but for Li Tai, who eats foreign goods and private property, he really doesn't pay much attention to it, even Ah Sheng doesn't check the accounts in the palace very much, plus there was no hostess in the palace before, a few big maids are very high-valued, and several stewards are responsible for them, and they are used to raising them, not only the monthly cost of 600 yuan, but also the annual income of Zhuangzi from all over the country, silk and satin, delicious and fun, which is not from Li Tai here, Then I sent it to them to choose.

"Six hundred guan," Yi Yu sank her breath, didn't dare to look at Li Tai's face, she said to Zhao Chuan, who was in a cold sweat, "Manager Zhao, tell me, this silver money is what they wanted, or was it given by your lord." ”

"Hui, Hui, Princess, small, small-" In charge of the palace's property, Zhao Chuan has always been careful not to do anything wrong, but he didn't expect that one day he would be found out because of the wrong person, he turned his head and secretly looked at Rong Yi and the others, received a sharp warning from Rong Yi, swallowed his saliva, and was hesitating how to say, "crackle", a jade bowl had fallen in front of his face.

"Let me ask you, what do you think she is doing is your master's bastard" Yi Yu shouted angrily, she is a good-tempered person, but whenever Li Tai is involved, she can't restrain it.

"The princess is angry." Pingtong Pinghui slapped his head, and the uproar that was still standing fell to his knees, Li Tai looked at her angry side face, and did not move.

After a short silence, Yu Yu pinched his fists and asked the next few:

"Tell me that the food and clothing are all in the house, where did all the money go? Need so much? ”

No one said a word below, and there was no one to answer, Yi Yu suddenly pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, nodded and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this first, let me ask you instead, before I married into the palace, which one gave them a few choices?" ”

Xu lost his temper just now, and the two goldsmith masters confessed tremblingly, "The princess is aware that the princess has chosen the pattern before, and it is Miss Rong Yi who is responsible for the details, and the little ones only make it according to the number of pieces she wants, and they don't know anything else." ”

Yi Yu was stunned for a moment, yes, he listened to his sentence "The prince has chosen the pattern", turned his head to look at Li Tai, and met his pair of blue eyes, his heart burned for no reason, and then he understood a little why she said the "leftover" just now why she picked his anger.

"Steward," Li Tai said for a long time before he spoke, "Take someone to the West Courtyard to search." ”

What to search, it goes without saying, the manager Liu Niansui answered, and was about to retreat, but Rong Xing, who had been bowing his head and not saying a word, suddenly went crazy, raised his face to reveal a tearful face, and shouted in anticipation:

"Lord Wang, the slaves and maids have been waiting in front of you for so many years, there is no merit and hard work, even if the sisters do something wrong for a while, those hundreds of dollars and a few hairpins are still not worth the years of love between our master and servant? Do you still remember, one summer you had a fever, others were afraid of contracting the disease, it was me and Rong Yi's sister who took care of you in front of the bed, and afterwards Rong Yi's sister almost lost half her life, have you forgotten?"

"Woo woo...," Rong Yi hid her face and cried.

When Yi Yu heard her talk about fever, she stiffened her body, remembered the old things that Li Tai told that night in Shangyuan, and turned her head to look at him a little blankly, thinking if it was these people who accompanied him when he was the most difficult, so he was so indulgent.

"Not that time," her thoughts were written on her face, how could Li Tai not understand, he vaguely felt that this matter was not clear, and it would definitely make her cranky, so he firmly held her hand and squeezed it hard, recalled her spirit, and said calmly:

"You know my habits, it is Ah Sheng who serves in front of me." At that time, his holy favor had been revealed, and there were many people serving tea and water, far more than just one or two people who came forward.

Yi Yu's eyes flashed, and she nodded her head, and Rong Yi was still talking about the relationship between master and servant, she listened to the harshness for ten minutes, then took a breath, and said coldly:

"Come on, shut their mouths."

Several servant women hurried in when they heard the sound, held down the two struggling and screaming men, and forced strips of cloth into their mouths.

The room was quiet again, probably no one was in the mood to speak, Yi Yu was helped by Pingtong to rest on the soft back, Li Tai asked Sun De to come to the study to get a roll of bamboo slips to see, I don't know how long it took, the sun was getting higher outside, and the people who went to collect came back.

Seeing boxes of things being carried into the house, filled the hall where no one was standing, one by one, the inside was either neatly stacked, or stuffed messy, silk satin, jewelry, gold and silver, clothing and jewelry, red and emerald, and some even things that Yu Yu had never seen, Ping Tong Pinghui went forward with a tense face and searched box by box, and the results came out, if there was still a jade bowl in Yu Yu's hand, he would definitely fall out.

More than half of the jewelry in her house was the same among the four big maids, and her pair of red butterflies alone, and there were also a pair of green, a pair of pink, a pair of purple, and a pair of yellow

Rong Yi Rong Xing was gagged, Rong Qin and Rong Shi were also frightened, but these two were a little bit clear, that Rong Qin kowtowed to Li Tai's widow respectively, and explained the matter, these things in their house were not only fished out of the palace, but also secretly sent by outsiders, every time they entered the palace to listen to the training, the ladies of each palace were rewarded, there was no hostess in the house, they didn't need to report, they all stayed privately, and over time, they had this scale, no wonder that Rong Xing heard that they would refuse to search their yard, and they would give and receive the news privately, and buy and sell the news, this is one of the biggest taboos in high-ranking households

“．．． The slave and maid were guilty and did not dare to beg for mercy, but asked the prince and princess to treat the slaves and maids lightly for the sake of the slaves and maids. Rong Qin pulled Rong Shi and kowtowed, trembling incessantly.

The four big maids, when the jade head saw the sky, was still beautiful, this blink of an eye, two crazy heads, two frightened, she had heard Lu and Mrs. Zhou say that the bigger the mansion, the more unclean things there are, but if you really put it in front of you, it will inevitably be a while.

If she wants to let her fall, she knows that according to the rules, she will at least beat them up for twenty boards and then reduce them to rough servants, but when she thinks about the relationship between these people and Li Tai, she can't open her mouth.

"Your Highness," Yi Yu shook Li Tai's hand back, "I don't know the rules of this mansion very well, you can punish it." ”

Li Tai looked tired when he saw her, and his eyes that were still shining in the morning were gloomy, he pursed his lips and swept the circle below, and said indifferently:

"Drag it out, fifty sticks, and send those who don't die to Nanying."

"Lord Kaien" Rong Qin hissed and wailed, but she didn't know what terrible place this Nanying made her frightened, Rong Shi was stunned, and Rong Xing, who was gagged, looked at Li Tai in disbelief, but she didn't notice any fluctuation in those eyes, her eyelids rolled, and she simply fainted.

"The prince is gracious, the prince is gracious, the slave and maid don't go to Nanying, the king, the princess," Rong Qin knocked for a while, suddenly turned around, cried and knelt and crawled towards the relict jade, "Princess, princess, please princess, slave and maid will serve you as a dog and horse in the future, please help the slave and maid intercede, please be gracious"

Yiyu originally intended to let him be dealt with lightly, but he didn't expect him to be punished so heavily, she didn't know where Nanying was, but the fifty sticks, she knew that she could kill a woman, seeing that Rong Qin was about to climb to her feet, but was dragged out by two servants, and the pair of pleading eyes stared straight at her.

A spirit, Yi Yu hurriedly grabbed Li Tai's arm, and said in a panic: "Your Highness, is this punishment heavy?" ”

"What do you say?" Li Tai asked her rhetorically, he never had the intention of hiding his cold side in front of him, and waved his sleeves to the guards outside the door: "Drag it out." ”

Within the limits of his control, he would give her the best, but only for her, and in this world, there was no need for a second reason to soften his heart.
