Princess Naren nodded, turned her head and instructed the mother-in-law who was guarding the door: "You go to the outer courtyard and ask the housekeeper to bring the account book of the prince's reward in the spring of the twelfth year of Yongchang." ”

Qian Hao saw that Princess Naren was so calm, he couldn't help but feel weak in his heart, he raised his eyes to look at his mother, and it happened that Concubine Dong also looked at him with a panicked expression, and when the eyes of the mother and son touched, they both felt the shock and uneasiness of the other party, as well as the suspicion that they didn't believe it when they didn't see the real chapter.

The waiting time always passed very slowly, Princess Naren ignored the mother and son of Concubine Dong, just tasted the tea slowly, and let the two of them rely on their eyes and gestures to discuss countermeasures there, about two quarters of an hour, Mother Jing led a little maid back and brought three account books.

Qian Hao and Concubine Dong looked at the color of the account book, and their hearts chuckled, obviously it was too long, and the paper was yellow and brittle, it seems that Prince Ren really made a register of what he gave to his woman.

Princess Naren flipped through the account book casually, asked Mother Jing to transfer it to Concubine Dong, and then spoke slowly: "The prince is a very delicate person, and he is even stricter in the management of his property, and there are always rules to follow, otherwise, our mansion would not be so rich and orderly." ”

Concubine Dong carefully opened the somewhat brittle cover of the account book, and it was indeed written in a certain year and month, rewarding such and such things, one by one, and the font of the account book was also the old eunuch Jing Yan who had followed Prince Ren for many years.

Concubine Dong was dying and struggling: "Concubine Niangniang, Father-in-law Jingyan often runs errands for the prince, what if he misses one or two?" ”

"Then I can't help it, when the prince leaves, he leaves a message for me to guard this house, then I can only use the prince's account books as the standard, as long as it is not recorded on it, no matter whose things are in the house, I have to take back the treasury according to the rules, Concubine Dong, please bear with me." I do what the prince tells me, no one can stop it, whoever dares to stop it is disrespectful to the prince, don't blame me for asking for family law. ”

Concubine Dong didn't expect that after so many years, the ear room next to the bedroom was full of all kinds of rare treasures, each of which was hard-won, but most of them were not rewarded by the prince. Thinking of the little family money that was easy to get after years of hard work, and now has to hand it over, Mrs. Dong's heart is like soaking in Coptis water.

Qian Hao saw his mother's face, and he couldn't suppress the evil fire in his heart, he estimated that the ornaments in his mother's treasury must be worth a lot of money, although he had secretly transported some to his uncle's family, but the valuable ones must have not moved, he knew that his mother's cronies were not but his aunt, but now, it was better to give them to his aunt, so that his uncle could still plan for himself. Qian Hao regretted it for a while, but now, he still has to fight for it:

"Concubine Niangniang, I and the side concubine moved out, the house was too cold, and the face of the palace was lost, don't you mind at all?"

Princess Naren raised her eyebrows strangely, and then said solemnly: "Could it be that you moved out and still want to play in the name of the palace?" From now on, you are you, and the palace is the palace. ”

"Can outsiders tell the difference so clearly? I estimate that in this life, when others mention me, they will add: 'The third master of the Renjun Palace'. ”

Princess Naren shook her head: "Who are you, people naturally have judgments in their hearts, whether you are doing well or not, it has nothing to do with me, Zhang'er is younger than you, Chaoyang is a generation younger than you, no one will blame them for not taking good care of you, but if they have anything wrong, you will not be able to escape it." When Princess Naren spoke, there was always a hint of ridicule on the corner of her mouth, and Concubine Dong and Qian Hao knew what it meant - Qian Hao was a concubine, why should people pay attention to it? No matter how cold he is, he can't lose the face of the county king's mansion.

Qian Hao's mouth moved several times, and finally he had nothing to refute.

Coming out of Princess Naren, Concubine Dong also asked people to find the second wife Huo, but unfortunately Qian Xuan had almost ruined the things in Concubine Liu's hands a few years ago, Huo's heart is now on her only son, her father warned her that she can't mess with anyone, and when the family was separated, Qian Jun was obviously helping Princess Naren, and Huo was very rational and silent, asking for whatever she wanted, not giving her or fighting. Mrs. Dong's concubine spent a long time talking, wanting her to make a fuss, but Huo Shili ignored it.

Mrs. Dong tossed around, and there was no other way, so she opened the warehouse, took out the small things, and asked the maid and the old mother to help sew them into the quilt.

Jing Yan, the eunuch who served Prince Ren, became ill because of overwork, and let Princess Naren send Princess Naren to Zhuangzi to recuperate, he was a smart man, guessing that the prince passed away, and the palace would be separated, so he sent someone to send a letter to Princess Naren, it turned out that ten years ago, Concubine Dong was caught by Prince Ren because of corruption through the housekeeper, and there was a small treasury in her yard, and the things in it were Qian Hao's belongings, and no other property could be obtained from the family.

Princess Naren immediately sent someone to Concubine Dong's courtyard, but found that she had smashed the copper lock of the small warehouse and replaced it.

Jingyan was sent to Zhuangzi, nine deaths, Prince Ren passed away again, Concubine Dong thought that no one knew about the past, so she had the courage to open the warehouse, which was light and easy to take, part of it was sent to the Dong family, and it was shipped out and stored in the pawnshop, she deliberately made a big fuss with Princess Naren, but also to cover up her behavior.

This time the family was separated, Princess Naren gave tens of thousands of taels of silver to the family property, plus her own two shops, as well as those stocks, she and Qian Hao can have a net worth of 100,000 taels, although it is not as good as the palace, but it is enough for her to live a good life comfortably, Concubine Dong hates Princess Naren on the one hand, and is proud of her cleverness on the other hand, on this day she is directing the maid to pack up her things, and the mother-in-law guarding the door came to pass the word: "Concubine Taifang Niangniang, the concubine is here." ”

"What? She-"Before the three words came out, Concubine Dong saw through the window that Princess Naren was coming over with a hug.

Concubine Dong hurriedly squeezed out a few laugh lines, pretended to be courteous, and hurried out to greet her: "Concubine Niang, what kind of wind blew you here?" ”

Princess Naren ignored her, walked straight into the house, sat down on the upper seat, and then took out Jingyan's letter and handed it over. Concubine Dong took out the letter paper a little dazedly, opened it and looked at it a few times, cold sweat broke out on her forehead, and her face was so angry that she turned into a purple eggplant. Princess Naren cleared her throat and said in a tough tone: "Since the prince had arrangements for Qian Hao's family property before his death, I will not be more coarse here, and show that I can. ”
