Chapter 238

When it was dark, Gu Jiu and Liu Zhao returned to the palace.

As soon as he got out of the carriage, a little yellow gate came to Lin Shuping, his servant, and reported something to his ear.

Lin Shuping's face changed slightly, and then he quietly reported to Liu Zhao.

Liu Zhao still, slightly nodded, and then said to Gu Jiu: "you go back to the room, I have to go out."

Gu Jiu worries, "can you stand the wine?"

Liu Zhao said without expression: "no harm. You don't have to leave the door for me. I'll stay in the office directly. "

Gu Jiu said: "I will leave the door for you, no matter how late."

In front of people, Gu Jiu will give Liu Zhao enough face.

Liu Zhao was really used, and his hard heart suddenly became soft.

He doesn't care whether there is anyone watching, directly holding Gu Jiu's hand, and not allowing Gu Jiu to let go.

He whispered to her, "you wait for me at night, and I'll try to come back as early as possible."

Gu Jiu felt that he had dug a hole for himself.

"Then you must come back early," she said stiffly

Liu Zhao nodded heavily, released Gu Jiu's hand, and took people out of the palace.

Gu Jiu settled his mind and took her servant girl back to the East Court.

Just entered the east courtyard Shangfang courtyard door, left behind the palace of Xiaocui, told Gu Jiu an amazing news.

"Beauty Wu? Is it serious? "

Xiaocui nodded frequently. "It's true. I went to see it. The beauty of Wu is gone."

Nine heart cool hair.

She dares to guarantee with her head on her neck that Wu Meiren's body will never die suddenly.

Wu Meiren is young, and her body looks good, but she has a miscarriage, and Dr. Hu has already checked her pulse and medication. In any case, there is no reason for her sudden death.

Unless it's artificial.

Some people want Miss Wu to die, so she can't live without her death.

In the palace, the only person who can do this is Wang Ning himself.

Gu Jiu asked, "has the corpse been collected?"

"Xiaocui has already nodded. Because it was a sudden death, it will be sent to the village before dark. "

Gu Jiu rubs his eyebrows. The cruelty of the palace can be seen.

Beauty Wu, who was still smiling last night, was declared dead today.

What did she do that she had to die.

Is it true that, as Princess Pei guessed, beauty Wu is unfaithful?

But last night, seeing the king's face, he should have no doubt about the chastity of beauty Wu.

So what's the problem.

Gu Jiu asked again, "what did the princess say?"

After thinking about it for a while, Xiaocui said, "I didn't see the princess. I only saw Mother Qin beside her. Mother Qin sent a message that Wu Meiren was buried as soon as possible and her courtyard was cleaned up. He also gave a command to forbid people in the mansion to talk about the beauty of Wu. "

So.

Gu Jiu asked again, "is the Lord back? Did the LORD say anything? "

Xiaocui said, "the LORD came back after noon. When she learned that beauty Wu had died suddenly, she only told people to handle the affairs properly. "

Gu Jiu's heart is cold, and the Royal Children's coldness can be seen.

Mother Fang whispered, "I don't know whether it was the Lord or the princess who gave orders to let beauty Wu die."

Gu Jiu said: "of course, it is the order of the Lord."

Mother Fang wondered, "why the lady is so sure is the order of the Lord."

Gu Jiu sneered and said, "the LORD came back after noon and heard that Wu Meiren died suddenly. It was not unexpected. He only let people bury them properly. It is obvious that Wang Ye has already known the fate of Wu Meiren.

Before dawn, the prince went to the palace. How could he know the news of Wu Meiren's sudden death?

Secondly, if the princess ordered to dispose of the beauty Wu, the prince would not have asked.

Obviously, there is only one answer, that is, the king ordered the disposal of beauty Wu and made her die suddenly. "

Green plum guessed, "is it true that the princess and empress said it, and that beauty Wu is really unfaithful?"

Gu Jiu shakes his head, "this matter has no way to know. Maybe that's the reason. Maybe it's something else. "

Gu Jiu prefers other reasons.

There must be something inside. The king changed his mind temporarily and beauty Wu had to die suddenly.

She knew nothing about it, so she couldn't guess.

Mother Fang went out for a while, and came back a moment later, "tell my wife, the servants of the east courtyard have come to Qi. Do you want to see them now?"

It was supposed to have been done yesterday.

But yesterday's meeting was too tired, so it was postponed to today.

Gu Jiu nodded, "let them come in batches."

Four boys, wash pen, wash ink, wash ink stone, serve sword. The four men had been with Liu Zhao since they were young, so they could be regarded as useful people around Liu Zhao.

According to mother Fang, the four boys all know martial arts. They are both boys and guards.After that, there were four huangmenlang and twelve bodyguards.

There were twenty-four bodyguards. Twelve of them went out with Liu Zhao and were not in the palace.

Gu Jiu and they met one by one, and all of them were awarded first-class and second-class rewards.

After that, she was a maid.

There was a woman named aunt sun, who was said to have nursed Liu Zhao for a period of time. She was half a Mammy. Therefore, aunt sun was very considerate in her wife.

She was in charge of the needlework room in the east courtyard. If the little maids wanted to make a purse with some sewing cloth, they had to get the consent of aunt sun.

Madame Sun, with a smile on her face, said to Gu Jiu, "if you want to sew anything, you can tell your servant. I promise you will do it properly. "

Gu Jiu laughed, "thank you. I don't know how many children my aunt has. Where do they work? "

Auntie Sun said, "my man is in charge of a Chuang Tzu for the palace. My son works as a servant under the housekeeper and does some errands. My daughter works as an errand next to the young master. She is called Chunjuan

Oh!

Aunt sun's family has become the son of the royal family. The whole family lives by the palace.

But aunt sun's daughter actually serves Liu Zhao.

Gu Jiu noticed the message.

She said with a smile to Auntie sun, "if you have any problems in the future, don't nag your son. Come directly to ask my wife."

"I will listen to your wife."

Gu Jiu gave aunt sun a reward and sent him out.

She exchanged a look with mother Fang, who understood that she would stare at Aunt sun.

If aunt sun is honest and responsible, that's all.

If not, we must find a chance to beat aunt sun.

Finally, Gu Jiucai sees several big servant girls waiting on Liu Zhao's side.

The Eight maids were headed by four servants, namely, playing Qin, playing chess, serving books and painting.

Among the other four maids, there is Chunjuan, aunt sun's daughter.

The Eight maids, all of whom were elegant in appearance and tall in stature.

If any one of them is taken out, they are more respectable than the ladies of ordinary official families.

"You've been around for many years. It's hard."

"I don't deserve it. It is the duty of servants and maidservants to serve the young master. "

Gu Jiu nodded, "it's good to know how to abide by your duty. In the future, you will continue to serve the young master. You can't make trouble by adjusting the ways. "

Several servant girls looked at each other.

They had thought that when their wife entered the door, they would not like to see them.

Before they came, they were all ready. If the lady dismissed their errands and did not allow them to wait on the childe, the eight of them would fight for justice, and would not hesitate to make trouble to the princess and empress.

But I didn't expect that the lady would let them continue to wait on him.

Eight were overjoyed.

"Madam, don't worry. Maids and maids will serve the young master with all their heart, and don't let the lady worry about it."

Gu nine pick eyebrow a smile, "on the server, my wife naturally believe you. These two days, I saw you serving the young master carefully and considerate. There are many servant girls around me.

Green plum, green bamboo, when they have free time, they should learn to play with Qin. They should not be complacent, but should learn from them modestly. Shiqin, are you willing to teach green plum and green bamboo

Shiqin several people lowered their heads and exchanged a look at each other. They could not figure out what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd.

Why should they teach green plum and green bamboo?

But when the lady spoke, they could not refuse.

"The lady thinks highly of us, and the maids and maids are willing to."

Green plum secretly ridicules, madam gives you three points of color, really dare to open dye shop.

Mother Fang shook her eyes and reminded the green plum not to be impatient, not to damage the lady's affairs.

Green plum quickly lowered her head, did not reveal the slightest idea in her heart.

Gu Jiu laughed, "you are all excellent. Come on, this is a reward for you, one for each one. Don't despise it. "

"Madame will give away the gifts from the maids and maids. How dare the maids dislike them?"

Gu Jiu said with a smile: "the young master will come back later tonight. You can arrange it by yourself. I'll call you when you need something

"I will listen to your wife."

Eight servant girls filed out of the room.

Gu Jiushu took a breath and saw so many people, it was not an easy thing.

She leaned against the soft collapse and asked, "mother Fang, what do you think of those servant girls?"

Mother Fang bowed down and said, "everyone thinks highly of himself, and the maid's body is young lady's heart. Relying on the respectability of serving the young master, I'm not willing to go down. "

Gu Jiu sneered and said, "if they are waiting on me, I don't mind giving them a chance to climb high. But since they are waiting on the childe's side, it is another matter. "

This year, and Jiang Yan general idea of a lot of maid.But not every servant girl is as Frank as Jiang Yan.

Most people are duplicity. The mouth says dare not, but in the heart head is doing all sorts of abacus.

Gu Jiu doesn't hate those big servant girls, but if you dare to touch her interests and rob a man with her, don't blame her for her impoliteness.

She and Liu Zhao will have children sooner or later. She will never allow anyone to undermine the interests of children and threaten their status.

In a word, if those servant girls keep their own way, Gu Jiu naturally can tolerate them.

If the heart is too much, Gu nine also don't mind to start personally, send those servant girls out.

At the beginning, she was able to send peach blossom, but now she can also send off the servant girl beside Liu Zhao.

Qingmei was not angry. "I looked at them, and they all had a foxy face. All of them were not willing to be obedient. Madame has to guard against it. "

Gu Jiu ha ha ha a smile, "really not very proper. You have more contact with Qingzhu, Xiaocui and the three of you. When they get familiar with you, they will be less prepared for you. "

"I know. I'm sure you'll get along well with them

In the evening, Gu Jiu left the door for Liu Zhao.

However, when she fell asleep, Liu Zhao never came back.

When I wake up and touch the bed, it's already cold.

Look at the traces on the bed, it is clear that someone has slept.

Gu Jiu rubs his eyebrows. Is Liu Zhao back or not.

She rang the bell and a few maids came in to wait on her.

Gu Jiu asked, "did you come back last night?"

Green plum nodded, "come back. I came back at midnight and went out again before dawn. "

Gu Jiu said.

Then he asked, "what did you say?"

"The young master told the servants not to disturb his wife's rest. I also told my wife to eat well and eat more to grow meat. "

Gu jiuzuozi.

Does Liu Zhao really want to raise her as a pig?

Is it possible to slaughter and eat after fattening.

Gu Jiu asked again, "did you say anything else?"

"Green plum nods," said the young master. He will be busy these days, leaving early and returning late every day. Let the lady not wait for him

Gu Jiu knows.

Either something happened in the court or something happened in private.

After breakfast, Gu Jiu goes to Chunhe hall to say hello to the princess.

By the time she arrived, Ouyang Fu, the second lady, had already arrived.

"The second younger brother and younger sister come so early?"

Ouyang Fu got up and said, "I've met my sister-in-law. My sister-in-law has come very early

Gu Jiu whispered with a smile, "I'm new here. I don't know what the princess likes? Can you teach me

Ouyang Fu, the second lady, nodded and said in a low voice, "Princess and empress, of course, I like everyone to follow her. For those who are against her, that is a deep hatred. In addition, the princess likes luxury, not simplicity. "

With these two points, Gu Jiu can basically guess the princess's principles.

At this time, the fourth lady Xiao qin'er also arrived.

As for the third Madame, because she was ill, she was afraid that she would be ill. She did not show up these days.

The fifth and the sixth were not married.

There are also three unmarried girls in the mansion. They went into the palace together yesterday and performed filial piety in front of lady Shufei. They have to live until the new year.

The three of them, as daughters in law, came not only to see you well, but also to reply.

Now Ouyang Fu and Xiao qin'er are in charge of the housekeeper. They can handle the trivial matters themselves. Major events must be reported to Princess PEI for decision.

The three of them arrived in Qi, and then two side concubines, beauties and talented people also came to Chunhe hall to greet them.

When they arrived, the waiter sang and drank. Princess Pei took her servant girl's hand and walked out.

They all got up and went forward to salute and pay homage to the princess

"Sit down and talk. Family, don't pay attention to these empty gifts. "

Pei sat down on the throne.

Gu Jiu sits at the bottom left, with Xiao qin'er and Ouyang Fu beside him.

Opposite her, there are Shen side imperial concubine, Luo side imperial concubine and others.

Pei's first glance into the door, the first time to please Gu Jiu.

She asked: "the eldest daughter-in-law, yesterday back home, how is the family?"

Gu Jiu slightly bowed, "reply to my mother's concubine, everything is good in Gu's house. The eldest lady of Hou's house also asked her daughter-in-law to greet her mother and concubine on her behalf. "

Pei said, "I know little Wei Shi. When we were young, we were good friends. Is she OK? "

Gu nine nods, "very good."

Pei's words today, with a pleasant face, did not criticize Gu Jiu's fault.

Gu Jiu guessed that a few days ago, it was because the princess was a little girl, so she had a bad temper.Pei did not pay too much attention to Gu Jiu, but asked Xiao qin'er, the assistant manager.

Xiao qin'er is sitting in a critical position. "I'd like to report to my mother's concubine. Every village, shop and several business lines in the South have already sent the income of this year to the government. This is the ledger. "

It turned out that Xiao qin'er had been prepared and knew that Pei was going to ask about the accounts, so he even brought the account books.

Gu Jiu picks eyebrows, the public account book, the account room is not in the case, Xiao qin'er even brings the account book out privately. We are not afraid that someone will tamper with the account books and enrich their own pockets.

Maybe she thought too much. The cashier should have made several books.

Pei took over the account book and looked through the pages.

Seeing the final summary, Pei frowned.

"But less than last year?" she asked

Xiao qin'er bowed down and said, "it's 20% less than last year to report back to the mother's concubine."

"Why so much less? There has been no natural disaster this year. How can it be so? "

Pei's income is obviously less than 20%.

She and Ning Wang both like luxury and spend a lot of money a year.

If there are so many people in the palace, the income will be reduced, which means that the cost will be reduced by 20% next year.

Although not cut to her head, but Pei is still unhappy.

If the income is less, it means that the money she has moved into the private Treasury will also decrease. How can she be happy.

Xiao qin'er said in a low voice: "report back to the mother's concubine, and the daughter-in-law is not very clear. It's better to call the cashier to ask. "

Pei snorted coldly and was dissatisfied with Xiao qin'er.

With the account book, but do not know why this year's income is less than last year, it shows that the homework has not been home.

At this time, Ouyang Fu, the second wife, said, "I'd like to present my mother's concubine, but my daughter-in-law knows something about it."
