Chapter 12: Is Her Royal Highness the King's Princess Short of Silver?

Ruihe Shilan Shiyu was personally selected by the first queen to be a big maid for the princess and grew up with the princess, originally the first queen chose four people, and the remaining one was called Rui Miao, which is as big as Ruihe.

Ruimiao is also calm, but he doesn't talk much, and he is a stuffy character.

Her Royal Highness the princess has been lively and active since she was a child, and Rui Miao has few words, so naturally she is not liked by the princess.

When the princess was playing in the palace, she saved Rui Xue, who was bullied by the old palace people, Rui Xue grew up well, and could speak, and was taken by the princess, and soon occupied Rui Miao's position.

Rui Miao saw that Rui Xue took good care of the princess, so she no longer went to the princess's side, so she gave up her status as a big maid and became a second-class maid beside the eldest princess.

The princess married into the Gu family, and the courtyard where she lived was not big, and several of their eldest maids lived in one room, not to mention Rui Miao, a second-class maid.

Rui Xue because she robbed Rui Miao's position, so she has been guarding against Rui Miao, and two years ago, Rui Xue found an opportunity to transfer Rui Miao to Huangzhuang as a steward.

Ruimiao didn't fight or grab, and even though she was wronged, she didn't say a word to the princess.

When Ruihe sorted out the account books, he found that among the several imperial estates of His Royal Highness, only the imperial village managed by Ruimiao had the best income and handed over the most silver money every year.

The three big maids hid their surprise, and Rui He replied truthfully: "Rui Miao is now in charge of the Imperial Village. ”

Qin Shuhuang nodded, "There is a shortage of manpower around this palace now, so send someone to bring Ruimiao back." ”

Hearing Qin Shuhuang's words, Rui He's eyes flashed with joy, "Yes, Your Highness, the slave will send someone to pick up Rui Miao." ”

Among the big maids, Ruihe and Ruimiao have the best relationship.

Ruihe has no father and no mother, Ruimiao is the first sister she recognized after entering the palace, although Ruimiao has few words, Ruihe knows that Ruimiao has always been sincere to the princess.

Every time he has the opportunity to go out of the Gu Mansion, Ruihe will go to the Huangzhuang to see Ruimiao.

Last month, she saw Ruimiao's heart and her heart hung all the time.

Rui Miao's father and mother didn't know why they found Rui Miao, and deceived Rui Miao's body that she had accumulated for many years, not to mention, but also said that she had found a good marriage for Rui Miao, and when she had the opportunity, she would ask for Gu Mansion and let Rui Miao get married.

Ruimiao privately asked people to investigate the family that their parents were looking for, where was a good marriage, it was clearly a widower, not to mention alcoholism and gambling, and he also liked to beat women, this widower's former wife was killed by him, and his daughter was sold into the kiln by him because of his gambling debts......

Now that Ruimiao can return to His Highness's side and have His Highness to protect him, the wolf-hearted parents can no longer trouble Ruimiao.

"Bring more cars, horses, and people, and once you move back, you won't have to run back and forth." Qin Shuhuang said.

"Hey!" Ruihe responded crisply.

Qin Shuhuang's eyes were deep.

In her previous life, Rui Xue had always been by her side, and with Rui Xue pressing in private, Rui Miao had no chance to show it in front of her at all, and she didn't pay much attention to Rui Miao, who had already become a second-class maid.

A month later, Rui Miao's biological parents begged Gu Mansion, and Mrs. Gu agreed to Rui Miao's marriage.

After that, she never heard from Ruimiao again.

Until the death of the emperor's younger brother, she was imprisoned by Gu Hongchao.

At that time, every two days, she was able to eat a clean meal, and the meal was delivered by a middle-aged woman who was lame and blind.

Later, she learned that this woman was Rui Miao, a second-class maid by her side in the past.

Rui Miao married a non-human, her legs and eyes were crippled by her husband, and she was tortured inhumanely, and she was forced by her husband to be a rough mother-in-law in the Gu family to earn money.

Rao is like this, every time Ruimiao comes to bring her a clean meal, it is because Ruimiao ate her unclean meal and gave her her own clean meal, Ruimiao didn't dare to recognize her, but guarded her in this insignificant way.

One day, that clean meal was gone......

Outside the room where they were imprisoned, the mothers-in-law were chewing on the root of their ears, saying that the lame woman had been beaten to death by her husband, and they found that they were curled up in the morning, and they were all hard, and they couldn't break straight.

Qin Shuhuang knew that Rui Miao was gone......

Qin Shuhuang retracted his thoughts, "Shilan, calculate how much silver is left in this palace." ”

Shilan bowed, she was in charge of Her Royal Highness's private property and the expenses in the courtyard, and she knew how much silver Her Royal Highness still had.

Soon Shilan had the result, "Back to Your Highness, plus the silver taels that Rui Miaoguan's Huangzhuang just handed over, there are now a total of three thousand taels." ”

Three thousand taels! Even if you count the two thousand taels you just got from the Gu family, it's only five thousand taels.

Far from enough!

In two months, there will be a locust plague in Lincheng Kangsong Mansion, Kangsong Mansion is the granary of the capital, once the harvest fails, even the capital will be affected, and there will be riots and turmoil at that time!

She had to have enough money to store up for food!

Qin Shuhuang twisted his eyebrows.

Seeing that His Royal Highness was in a bad mood, Shilan immediately felt extremely ashamed.

The eldest princess of the hall can use only three thousand taels of silver, but if she is more useful, she can guard the points for Her Royal Highness the princess, and it will not be only three thousand taels of silver.

Qin Shuhuang looked up and found Shilan's expression of self-blame, he was stunned, and then dissipated the sadness on his face, and said easily: "It has nothing to do with you, don't blame yourself." We are short of silver now, isn't there still those encroached shops and Zhuangzi fields in this palace! ”

Shilan Shiyu's face was full of questions.

Could it be that His Royal Highness wants to personally bring back the property that was embezzled by the Gu family?

Qin Shuhuang knew the thoughts of the two big maids at a glance, she shook her head, "This palace will go and ask for it in person, isn't that cheaper for the Gu family?" ”

Immediately, Qin Shuhuang's expression turned grim, revealing a touch of ruthlessness, "This palace is short of silver now, so let's sell these shop Huangzhuang fields!" ”

Although these properties were privately embezzled by the Gu family, but the imperial brother was in power, the Gu family did not dare to do too much, on the surface, these things were still in her name, and when she lost power, these things could be justified in the hands of the Gu family.

Before Shilan could turn the corner, she scratched her head and looked at the princess with a puzzled face.

Shi Yu reluctantly explained to Shilan, "Those shops and Huangzhuang fields no longer belong to His Highness in private, but they are still in His Highness's name on the surface, and everyone in the noble circle knows that His Royal Highness's Huangzhuang Shop and fields are the best, and they have no price." Now His Highness is openly going to change these things, and there are rich nobles waiting to take over. At that time, even if the Gu family is for the sake of face, they can only spit out the shop Huangzhuang Tian's property in their hands, and they will suffer a loss. ”

Shilan was stunned.

Qin Shuhuang continued to instruct, "Send someone to the regent palace to reveal the news privately, and say that the palace is going to sell part of the Huangzhuang shop's land." ”

Sold to other families, the Gu family may have the courage to make trouble, but if it is sold to the Regent Palace, the Gu family does not have the guts!

And at present, only the regent and her little uncle Qin Wei have the financial resources to eat so much of her property.

Xuancang's room.

Xuan Cang, who was dressed in a black python robe, was taking off the weird grimace mask on his face and changing into the clothes of Qin Shuhuang's personal guard.

He wore his belt while listening to the reports of those around him.

"Back to the prince, today Her Royal Highness the princess sent someone to call the account manager of the Gu Mansion and asked someone to pick up the second-class maid Rui Miao...... Her Royal Highness the princess wants to sell the property in her name. ”

The guards told Xuan Cang everything Qin Shuhuang did today.

When he heard that Qin Shuhuang was going to sell the property, Xuan Cang frowned.

Could it be that Her Royal Highness the princess of this king is short of silver?
