Eight thousand taels of silver

The chief butler of the Three Princes' Mansion, Xing Xiaozhi stepped into the lobby quickly.

Although Steward Xing was the chief butler of the Three Princes' Mansion, he didn't hold it up, and according to the rules, he bowed to Jing Zhaoyin: "My lord." ”

"Steward Xing!" Li Yuanbu was overjoyed, and the smile on his face was reluctant, and it was not reluctant, revealing twelve points of cheerfulness.

- Help is coming, can you be cheerful?

In the past, the Three Princes' Mansion and Li Yuanbu had some contacts, and Xing Xiaozhi and Li Yuanbu also met several times.

During the New Year's holidays, with Li Yuanbu's sleek and thoughtful, it is natural to go through all the famous people in Daqing City.

And the prayer post is also sent to the Three Princes' Mansion every year.

Jing Zhaoyin of Daqing City is not worthy of being summoned by the third prince Wei Qianlang.

Therefore, Li Yuanbu only drank tea with Xing Xiaozhi a few times.

The chief butler of the Three Princes' Mansion is a well-known figure in the capital.

What's more, Xing Xiaozhi is the third prince's foreign family, Anding Houfu, specially sent to the Three Princes' Mansion to take care of Wei Qianlang's chief steward, and as the expectation of Anding Houfu, it is a little different from ordinary housekeepers.

In other words, Xing Xiaozhi is the chief butler of the Three Princes' Mansion with the support of the Marquis of Anding!

Li Yuanbu hurriedly returned the salute.

If it weren't for the court, many eyes watchedβ€”

Li Yuanbu really wanted to run down from the main seat and salute Xing Xiaozhi!

"Steward Xing, I don't know what happened to me today?"

Xing Xiaozhi said: "My lord, I came today for the Zhao family's entry into the thief. I heard that the Zhao family slandered others? ”

Li Yuanbu smiled: "The case has not yet been decided, the case has not yet been decided!" ”

Xing Xiaozhi said: "Xing can be a guarantor for the Zhao family, the Zhao family is upright, clean and upright, and it is by no means a family that slanders others at will." ”

Li Yuanbu has the bottom in his heart at the moment.

The Zhao family really hugged the thigh of the Three Princes' Mansion!

And, hold it pretty tight!

Xing Xiaozhi glanced at Li Yuanbu and hinted: "And-

The Zhao family is kind to the Three Princes' Mansion, and they must not be such treacherous and cunning people.

Please be careful! ”

- Grace? Could it be?

Li Yuanbu is a well-traveled person, and when he heard Xing Xiaozhi's hints, he immediately remembered some secret rumors he had heard in the capital recently.

I heard that when the third prince went to the state of Wu, he was in distress in the state of Wu and was seriously injured.

There was a family surnamed Zhao who gave up his life to escort the three princes back to Daqing City.

In this way, this family surnamed Zhao also followed the three princes to Daqing City.

Li Yuanbu remembered the recent many appeasements of the three princes and the obvious snub to Concubine Li, and the speculation in his heart became a little firmer.

So, Li Yuanbu looked at the side of the Lelin Houfu and said with a smile: "This official believes that the Lelin Houfu does not need to steal.

However, the house is big, and it is inevitable that some subordinates will mess around.

Perhaps, this incident was caused by the nonsense of the subordinates-"

The steward of the Lelin Hou Mansion had a blue face and a white face.

When Li Yuanbu said this, he obviously wanted to take out the Lelin Marquis Mansion and then push the responsibility on some of his subordinates.

Steward Xing reminded: "My lord, ten thousand taels of silver is all the net worth of the Zhao family, and it is the foundation of the Zhao family's foothold in Daqing City......

Li Yuanbu had no choice but to continue: "...... Presumably, the Marquis of Le Lin Mansion was deceived by his subordinates and did not know about it.

Having said that, although the money is small, this is the cost of the Zhao family's food and living, we can't see the Zhao family starving to death, right?

I also asked Lelin Houfu to discipline the subordinates well and let the subordinates take out the money. ”

- The chief butler of the Three Princes' Mansion dispatched, and this bit of face still has to be given.

What's more, Lelin Houfu is a famous rich family in the capital, and it is not bad for money.

Ten thousand taels of silver is just the cost of a birthday banquet for Le Linhou.

Just think it is - spend money to eliminate disasters.

The steward of Lelin Houfu also knew Xing Xiaozhi.

Naturally, he also knew that Xing Xiaozhi, as the chief steward of the Three Princes' Mansion, was not a figure he could afford to offend.

Not to mention that he is just a small steward, even if the big housekeeper of the Lelin Marquis Mansion comes, he may not be able to break his wrists with Xing Xiaozhi.

Therefore, although the steward of the Lelin Marquis Mansion was not angry, he did not dare to be as arrogant as before.

Hearing Li Yuanbu say this, and then facing the strong intention of "calming things and calming people" conveyed in Li Yuanbu's eyes, the steward of Lelin Houfu could only bite his cheeks and swallow this breath hard: "My lord, Lelin Houfu doesn't care about trivial things like gold and silver, but, ten thousand taels of silver, this, this, this is too exaggerated." ”

Zhao Sichen heard the steward of the Lelin Houfu say this, and answered with a smile: "We didn't expect to be able to recover the full amount, but my family's expenses are large, and if we can recover eight or nine thousand taels of silver, we can barely last a few years." ”

Twenty taels of silver is enough for a well-off family to spend for a year.

The Zhao family will spend eight or nine thousand taels of silver in a few years?!

The steward of the Lelin Marquis Mansion wanted to stare, but he didn't dare, so he could only look down angrily at a small piece of blue brick under the ground in front of him.

Li Yuanbu laughed, played a round game, and said: "Time is tight, and this official thinks that it is difficult for the Zhao family to know the specific loss in a short time. Besides, the subordinates of the Lelin Houfu did have misconduct, and they should also be responsible.

It's better to ask Lelin Houfu to compensate the Zhao family for 8,000 taels of silver, and today's matter will be over. ”

- Hurry up, it's no good for anyone to drag it out!

Xing Xiaozhi looked coldly at the steward of the Lelin Houfu, and the invisible coercion was released outward.

The steward of the Lelin Hou Mansion gritted his teeth, clenched his fists heavily, let out a breath from his nostrils, and snorted coldly.

Xing Xiaozhi saw that this matter was over, so he had time to look at Zhao Sichen.

The moment he looked at the past, he changed from stern to kind.

Zhao Sichen originally just wanted to send the thief to the government and teach a lesson to those who wanted to stumble.

opened his mouth to say that he lost 10,000 taels, but he just said it casually to put pressure on Jing Zhaoyin.

Unexpectedly, there was really a pie in the sky.

As soon as the housekeeper of the Three Princes' Mansion appeared, Jing Zhaoyin opened his mouth and helped her get eight thousand taels from the Lelin Hou Mansion.

Zhao Sichen's eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile, which was smaller than Li Yuanbu's eyes.

The capital is a good place, and Lelin Houfu is a good family!

Money fell from the sky, Zhao Sichen hurriedly stretched out his hands to catch it: "Follow your lord's orders." Thank you, my lord, and thank you Steward Xing...... Thank you for the Le Lin Hou Mansion! ”

Xing Xiaozhi nodded, and said to the steward of the Lelin Hou Mansion: "Please also ask the Lelin Hou Mansion to send the eight thousand taels of silver tickets to the Zhao Mansion on time tomorrow." The Three Princes' Mansion will also send someone to assist Miss Zhao in handling this matter. ”

The steward of the Lelin Houfu snorted, flicked his sleeves, and walked away.

The two subordinates of the Lelin Houfu hurriedly got up from the ground and hurriedly chased them out.

Xing Xiaozhi bowed to Li Yuanbu: "Thank you Lord Li for handling this matter safely, if the third prince returns from the palace in the near future, I will also report this matter to the third prince." ”

Li Yuanbu's favor, the Three Princes' Mansion can be regarded as inherited.

"Well said, well said." Li Yuanbu smiled all over his face, hurriedly walked down from the position of the chief officer, stepped forward to hold Xing Xiaozhi's hands, and said, "It's rare that Steward Xing came in person, why don't you move to the backyard and drink a cup of tea?" ”

"No, there are a lot of chores in the house, and I have to go back to deal with it." Xing Xiaozhi politely refused.

"Hahaha, understand, understand. Steward Xing is the left arm and right arm of the Three Princes, and the Three Princes' Mansion is usually inseparable from you. ”

"Master Li laughed, I just worked hard, and I can't be idle for a moment. I have to rush back to the house now......"

"Understood! I know! Li Yuanbu arched his hand: "Steward Xing is at his own convenience." ”

"I'm free, I'll bother Master Li again."

After greeting Li Yuanbu, Xing Xiaozhi nodded at Zhao Sichen and walked out the door.

Zhao Sichen hurriedly followed.

Outside the door, Xing Xiaozhi took a good look at Zhao Sichen a few times.

Zhao Sichen is dressed as an ordinary girl in the boudoir.

He wore a bun on his head, and his black and shiny hair did not have any ornaments, and he did not wear gold or hairpins like other girls.

The white and tender little face is still a little childish, the cheeks are soft, and the black and white eyes seem to be a little childish.

Although it has not yet grown up, the willow eyebrows are like daisies, the eyes are full of autumn water, the hands and feet are soft and slender, and the appearance of the beauty can be vaguely seen.

It's just that Zhao Sichen was wearing a light cyan fine linen shirt, which was slightly whitish after washing, and the sides of his sleeves were slightly worn.

The whole body is clean and elegant, no decoration, and no gold, silver, jade and other jewelry.

It seems that the environment at home is not good.

However, Xing Xiaozhi didn't dare to underestimate Zhao Sichen.

Although Wei Qianlang didn't reveal much, Xing Xiaozhi was born in the Stable Mansion and was in charge of the Three Princes' Mansion, so he naturally had his own news channels.

He learned a little about Wei Qianlang's return to Wei from Wu.

A girl with a weak appearance, in the face of waves of pursuing soldiers in a foreign country, took the injured Wei Qianlang all the way to slash and slash, and fled to Daqing City of Wei together.

This courage and ability are more powerful than a team of pro-soldiers in the Three Princes' Mansion.

It's just that I didn't expect Miss Zhao to be so young, it seems that she is only twelve or thirteen years old.

Originally, Xing Xiaozhi was still a little puzzled about the information he obtained, wondering if there was another master behind Zhao Sichen, and Zhao Sichen was just pushed out to be a figure on the surface.

I saw with my own eyes today that Xing Xiaozhi believed a little more in Zhao Sichen's skills.

Not to mention ordinary people, even if they are the daughters of official eunuchs, when they come to the hall of the mansion and face Jing Zhaoyin's shock, there are few who are not panicked.

Zhao Sichen not only did not panic, but also watched a play the whole time, chewing and smiling at the corners of his mouth, with banter in his eyes.

Although Zhao Zhufei is a middle-aged man, when he deals with things, he respects Zhao Sichen.

Zhao Sichen met Xing Xiaozhi's scrutinizing eyes, did not avoid or hide, and generously blessed a blessing: "Thank you, Lord Xing." ”

Li Yuanbu was in court and called him "Steward Xing", and Zhao Sichen wrote it down.

Xing Xiaozhi smiled, helped me weakly, and said, "Miss Zhao doesn't need to call me Lord, just call me Steward Xing." ”

He looked at Zhao Sichen and thought that Wei Qianlang was lucky to escape death because he met Zhao Sichen, and he was very happy and grateful in his heart, and decided to be Zhao Sichen's backer on the spot: "There are all kinds of demons and monsters in Daqing City, but with us, you don't have to be afraid of being bullied." If you have anything, just send someone to the Three Princes' Mansion to find me. I'm always there. ”

Zhao Sichen responded with a smile: "Then I thanked Uncle Xing first." ”

Xiao Nizi was clever and climbed up the relationship with Xing Xiaozhi along the pole.
