Yun Zhaoyue turned her head and saw Lingxi running from the corridor in a panic, sweating profusely.

She frowned and said, "Didn't you ask you to go to the kitchen to pass the meal, why did you quarrel with someone?" ”

Yun Zhaoyue was stunned, "Those cooks are relying on the old and selling the old to make things difficult for you again?" ”

Lingxi shook his head, and couldn't make sure in a hurry, "The side concubine drove all the cooks away!" ”

"It is said that the cooks rely on the old to sell the old and bully the princess and the princess, and they are full of no truth, and they want to rectify them, and today they have settled the money and let them all go home."

Yun Zhaoyue raised her eyebrows, she underestimated this An Rongrong, and she had just learned a lesson at the door, so she would think of a way to deal with herself.

"Is this trying to put all the blame on the cook, and then deal with the cook's name in my name?"

Yun Zhaoyue sneered, "Concubine Fang is really calculating!" ”

"Yanzhu asked people to make dinner for the prince, Qiuyue said that the side concubine has nothing to eat, anyway, I can't find the cook now, and I won't die if I am hungry for one or two meals."

The more Lingxi spoke, the more angry she became, "I clearly saw that Xiangning bought pastries from outside for the side concubine, why didn't we go out to buy food for the princess and princess?" ”

Yun Zhaoyue understood the general idea and nodded, "You are here to accompany the prince, and I will deal with it." ”

With that, he strode to the kitchen.

Shen Beiyan looked at her back, and suddenly ordered Lingxi: "Go and take a look near the courtyard of the side concubine." ”

Before Yun Zhaoyue reached the kitchen door, she heard the argument inside.

"And you don't give me food, and you don't let me go out to buy, in case you starve the prince's body, can you afford to pay for it?"

"Ouch, the general manager of Yanzhu is so magnificent, relying on the princess's momentum to call on our maid, right? I'm sorry, the curfew was a rule set by the prince at the beginning, and after a while, you can't go out. ”

"If you're not satisfied, get out and tell that prince!"

Shen Beiyan did set the rules of the curfew, but at that time, it was because there were too many spies from the Qi State in the capital, and he often took advantage of the night to murder the subordinates of Ning Wangfu, with the original intention of maintaining the safety of everyone in the mansion.

Moreover, this rule has not been mentioned for many years, and few people have followed it.

"This time is not that time, what's the point of shouting here with the old rules, can't you even work around?"

Qiu Yue raised her chin, her face was full of arrogance, "Didn't the princess say it, everything must be done according to the rules, she robbed the side concubine Niangniang's housekeeping according to the rules, and we also have a curfew according to the rules." ”

"The princess said, the biggest one in the house is the prince, why, don't you listen to what the prince says?"

Yanzhu Qi knot: "You! ”

"Listen, of course!"

A female voice suddenly came from the kitchen door, and Yun Zhaoyue turned around from the corridor.

Yanzhu's face was instantly dyed with joy, "Princess! ”

The arrogant color that was originally unconcealed was when she heard that someone was coming, Qiu Yue suddenly retracted her chin, shrunk her body, and kicked on her shoulder during the day, still in a faint pain, which made Qiu Yue a little afraid.

"It's rare to hear Qiu Yue say such pertinent words," Yun Zhaoyue smiled faintly, "I thought you couldn't speak human words." ”

Qiu Yue shrunk her shoulders, and her voice was a little shorter, "Wang...... Princess, why are you here, kitchen pickles, you are golden, don't stain your shoes! ”

Yun Zhaoyue didn't pay attention to her compliment at all, turned her head to Yanzhu and said, "When the prince set the curfew rules, what else did he set?" ”

Yanzhu didn't understand what she meant, and said in a daze: "I also said that you are not allowed to eat out, and people in the house are not allowed to talk to outsiders except for going out to buy......

Listening to Yanzhu finish speaking little by little, Yun Zhaoyue nodded, "Okay, since the side concubine took the lead in letting everyone curfew, then you can't favor one over the other, just implement all the rules together!" ”

She turned her head sideways towards Yanzhu and said, "I heard that Concubine Fang asked people to go out to buy food?" ”

Yanzhu nodded in a daze.

"Take a few people and throw away the food out."

Qiu Yue's face immediately changed, and she said with a stiff smile: "Princess, these regulations were all set in order to prevent the Qi State from harming our royal palace, and now that the two countries are on good terms, there will never be such evil things again, why do you need to take out all the regulations and implement them?" ”

"You know what you do?"

Yun Zhaoyue pretended to be surprised and looked at Qiu Yue, "Why isn't the curfew a rule established at that time?" ”

Qiu Yue said stupidly: "The curfew is what the prince himself said......"

"Why aren't the other rules said by the prince?"

One sentence made Qiuyue speechless for a long time.

She was in a dilemma, so she could only say, "That...... Then wait for the slave to go back and report to the side concubine, if the side concubine allows......"

"What is allowed, when will it be a concubine's turn to speak in this palace?"

Yun Zhaoyue's face suddenly turned cold, "I don't bother to care about the fact that she drove the cook away, but this rule ......"

"If I say to do it, I have to do it!"

She glared at Yanzhu sideways, "Why are you still standing here, immediately take someone to the side concubine's courtyard to do errands!" ”

Yanzhu was stunned for a moment, and was a little embarrassed: "That...... Princess, what if the side concubine has already eaten? ”

"Then spit it out."

Yun Zhaoyue smiled brightly at Qiu Yue, whose face was pale, "Tell you princess, either follow the rules, or I will personally go and pick out what she swallowed!" ”

Qiu Yue's face was completely bloodless, but the eyes and tails of Yanzhu couldn't hide the joy, and immediately rushed to An Rongrong with a few family members to do errands.

When everyone was gone and the entire kitchen was clean, Yun Zhaoyue looked at the clean stove and the rich ingredients scattered on the side, and rolled up her sleeves.

Lingxi pushed Shen Beiyan to walk around An Rongrong's yard along the road, stopping his movements from time to time according to Shen Beiyan's request, watching him lean down and touch the trunk of the tree and pinch the soil.

Although he didn't know the purpose of his master, he knew that he didn't dare to ask.

"I remember if your mother did a sprinkler sweep in the outer courtyard of the side concubine before?"

Lingxi responded, "Yes, but it wasn't long enough, about half a year, and the side concubine disliked my mother's clumsiness, so she drove her away." ”

Shen Beiyan frowned: "The side concubine even has to take care of the minions in the outer courtyard?" ”

Lingxi was stunned for a moment, this will also be a little confused, "The slave doesn't know ......"

"It's just that my mother is by no means stupid, she can do fine work, and my mother cried for a long time when she was brought back, saying that it would be nice if she didn't help the side concubine clean the inner courtyard hut without a top shift......"

"Inner courtyard cabin?"

Shen Beiyan raised his head suddenly, his eyes were gloomy like a bird of prey, and he was frightened.

"Right...... That's right, there is a hut in the inner courtyard of the side concubine, except for the side concubine herself, she is not allowed to enter on weekdays. ”
