Chapter 257

"Is there a misunderstanding? It is still said that some people have slandered their daughter-in-law in the wake of their mother and concubine

Gu Jiu's eyes, from everyone's face one by one, seems to want to determine who is in the princess with the forward slander.

Many people in her eyes under the gaze, are subconsciously away.

Some people don't care and respond to her eyes in a big way.

Bang!

Pei Shi patted the table, pointed to Gu Jiu and said angrily, "you don't want to pick up irrelevant people. It is a fact that you have removed the objects of the imperial palace. Can you deny it when so many people have seen it? "

Gu Jiu shook his head and said, "the daughter-in-law doesn't want to deny. The daughter-in-law did ask someone to remove the objects from the Imperial Palace, but she did so according to orders.

Without the father's permission, the daughter-in-law would never dare to move the objects in the imperial palace.

The mother imperial concubine thinks carefully, how many bodyguards, how many yellow gate, how many strong servants.

So many stare, if there is no father's permission, give the daughter-in-law a hundred courage, also dare not to carry away the objects of the imperial palace with great fanfare.

Those bodyguards are not incompetent. They can bring down their daughter-in-law with one move. If the mother and concubine don't believe it, they can send someone to the imperial palace to inquire about their father. They will know that their daughter-in-law has no empty words

Pei frowned, but there is some truth in this.

The bodyguard of the imperial seal Pavilion is not a decoration. How can you look at Gu Jiu's moving things, but remain indifferent.

Xiao qin'er, however, jumped out and said, "my sister-in-law is very clever. Who knows if she played tricks on her father, so that he can let him allow you to remove the objects from the imperial palace."

Gu Jiu looked back at Xiao qin'er and asked, "are the four brothers and sisters questioning the father's judgment? My father is very young and resourceful. What's the fourth brother and sister's intention to slander my father's old age and confusion?

How can I influence my father's judgment. Four younger brothers and sisters, I really did not expect that you are respectful and filial, but in private you are looking forward to your father's early death and becoming a fool. "

"I don't. don't slander me." Xiao qin'er is in a hurry and her eyes are red.

"My wife, my sister-in-law slandered me, misinterpreted my words and killed my heart. She is relying on this one sharp mouth, dead can be said to survive, but also dare to accuse me of bad thinking, it is clear that she is a rake. And ask my mother to make decisions for me

Xiao qin'er kneels in front of Pei's family, weeping and crying. She looks as if she has been wronged by the heaven.

Pei's eyes narrowed and looked around. "Come on, go to the imperial palace to ask the king whether the eldest lady carried the objects from the imperial seal Pavilion. Did he agree with him?"

The servant took orders and left.

Pei continued: "the princess will find out this matter, and will never wronged anyone. But, my wife, you are really a liar. I almost believe you. "

Gu Jiu was neither humble nor arrogant, and said, "my daughter-in-law dares not to gossip. If you really want to investigate, also ask the mother imperial concubine to ask four younger sister-in-law, what is she in the end? Is it possible that the fourth younger brother and sister thought that my son was in prison, and that the fourth son could take his place? "

Xiao qin'er kneels on the ground, while Gu Jiu stands all the time.

Two people one tall and one short, it seems from the momentum on the difference Gu Jiu a section.

So she jumped up from the ground, pointed to Gu Jiu and angrily said, "I have never thought of it like this. Elder sister-in-law, please don't speculate and wronged a good man. "

Gu Jiu looked at her with a smile, "this is what I want to say with four younger brothers and sisters. Please be kind-hearted and don't wrongly treat others

"Mother's wife!" Xiao qin'er began to cry again.

She sobbed, pitifully.

Pei was indifferent.

In her life, she has seen too many people cry.

There are so many women who have never cried in front of her.

It's a delusion to expect a cry to soften her heart.

Xiao qin'er cried for a long time, but the princess didn't respond.

She was embarrassed.

She covered her face, lowered her head and moved her eyes. Should she continue to cry, or should she take the opportunity to stop.

It's hard to choose.

Xiao qin'er gnaws her teeth, all of which blame Gu Jiu.

Gu Jiu is an evil spirit.

The servant who went to the imperial palace to inquire about the news came back.

"I'd like to report to the princess and empress. The LORD said that the eldest lady was ordered to act. Just as the Lord wants to change the ornaments of the partial hall, he asks the eldest lady to deal with it. "

Pei frowned, "is that what the LORD said?"

The servant nodded, "I dare not deceive my mother."

"Step back."

"Yes."

Pei looked at Gu Jiu, "since you are ordered to act, the princess will not investigate your responsibility. But next time, you'd better report to the princess in advance

"Yes, my daughter-in-law."

Then Pei said, "you are sister-in-law. I hope you can get along with each other harmoniously. Don't create anything out of nothing, and don't provoke right and wrong. If anyone is not willing to settle down, I will not be polite. "Xiao qin'er trembled and took the opportunity to stop crying, "my daughter-in-law obeys the instructions of her mother."

Pei was just about to send everyone. At this time, the servant reported that Princess Huyang had come.

Princess Huyang still lives in the palace, and does not return to the mansion.

She meant that she didn't want to go back to the sheriff's house. I'm afraid that once I go back, I will think of the tragic death of Chen's son-in-law.

Since Princess Huyang is here, we all sit still. All want to see why Princess Huyang came here.

After a while, Princess Huyang was invited to the hall.

Huyang princess's eyes were red and swollen, and it was obvious that she had just cried.

Her face was sad, "sister-in-law, I dream of a son-in-law, he is so miserable, he died in peace."

Pei frowned. Although he didn't want to see Princess Huyang, he couldn't be killed.

"Don't think about it," she said. You have to find something to do to distract your attention

Princess Huyang shook her head again and again, "No. My son-in-law told me in my dream that he was so miserable that his body was incomplete, and the king of Yan would put him in the oil pot. What do you think I should do, sister-in-law? "

Shen side imperial concubine suggests: "do not go to the temple, do a ritual for Chen's son-in-law."

Princess Huyang looked at Pei's family eagerly.

Pei's frown, "it's about Chen's son-in-law. It's up to Huyang to decide for yourself."

Princess Huyang said: "I intend to go to the temple to do a ritual for the emperor in law, and add thousands of taels of fragrant oil money, so that the son-in-law will have a good birth in the next life. However, I was short of money, and my father and Emperor punished me for three years. I also asked my sister-in-law to contribute generously and support me

Pei's anger was inverted. Princess Huyang came to ask for money.

"Don't you know what's going on in the mansion?" she said with a look of displeasure? After clearing up the accumulated debts, Wang Ye emptied his family and collected tens of thousands of Liang. All of them were handed over to the Ministry of housing. Now, there is no money in the government except for the food expenses of this month. "

But Princess Huyang said, "but I heard that brother Wang used southwest silver to replace Guanping silver. In this way, there should be forty-five thousand taels of official silver left in the palace.

Since I have money, why should my sister-in-law call me poor. No matter how poor the palace is, can I still be poor? Or does she not want to lend me money? "

Pei's angry, "you also said that the Hubu is cleaning up the accumulated debts. You don't want to pay back the account department, but you just want to add several thousand taels of fragrant oil money to do things for Chen's son-in-law. You are very generous.

A hand is several thousand taels of silver, you don't think about it. Whose money is it? When the matter reached the palace, your majesty asked you if you had money to add incense and oil, but you had no money to pay back the debt. How would you answer that? Have you thought about it? "

Princess Huyang's eyes were red, and tears fell down her cheek. "I don't know what sister-in-law said. But the emperor's son-in-law really died! Can't sister-in-law be kind? Can she really bear to watch her husband's death

Pei said angrily, "don't talk about Chen's son-in-law. Chen's son-in-law has been ruined by you. Now, you don't want to repent. Do you want to kill the palace? "

Princess Huyang suddenly raised the volume and cried, "sister-in-law is poking my heart. Since the accident, I haven't left the palace for half a step. I'm on my own every day. But my sister-in-law yelled at me, and blamed me for implicating the palace. In this case, why don't I go into the palace to see my mother and concubine now

Pei Shi sneered, "if you have the courage to go into the palace, the princess is afraid of you. As soon as you enter the palace, your majesty will get news and ask you to go and ask questions.

I would like to know how you will deal with your Majesty's questions. Don't put yourself in at the end, and you will be punished for three more years. "

This is also the reason why Huyang dare not enter the palace.

She was afraid of the son of heaven's guilt and of facing him.

The emperor ordered Chen's son-in-law to cut his back and abandon the city, which really scared Huyang.

She has no guts to enter the palace now.

But bravado, she will.

"Well, since my sister-in-law wants me to die, I will go into the palace now. My father really wanted to punish me. Without money, I couldn't live. I simply sold the princess's house and changed it into money for our mother and son to live together. "

She swaggered out.

Shen side imperial concubine hastily advised: "princess, don't be impulsive. You should do things for Chen's son-in-law.

It's just adding thousands of taels of sesame oil at a time. It's really too eye-catching. Please think twice, princess.

It's better to reduce the amount of sesame oil. Now it's really difficult for the palace to pay.

Let's collect the private house money together and make up a sum of sesame oil money for you. Do you think so? "

Huyang cried: "or sister-in-law Shen loves me."

Pei's anger is half dead, "who do you call sister-in-law?"

She called Shen Bian Fei to be his sister-in-law. Huyang should fight.

Hu Yang wiped his tears, "Shen side imperial concubine also has a jade butterfly gold book, and she also gives birth to children for her royal brother. Shouldn't she call her sister-in-law?"

"No, don't call me sister-in-law. The princess flatters me Shen side imperial concubine's face is frightened, but she is very happy in her heart.Looking at Pei's livid face, it's really gratifying.

Pei pointed to Princess Huyang, "with your attitude, you still want to take money from this princess. I tell you, no way. Go back to the guest house and be honest. You are not allowed to leave the palace. "

Huyang snorted, "this is brother Wang's residence. You have no right to interfere with me. If you don't give me money, I'll go to see brother Wang. "

Princess Huyang ran out in a huff.

Pei stroked his forehead and said, "I'm so angry. Such a sister-in-law on the princess's stall is really a bloody mildew for eight generations. "

"Look on, princess. After all these years, why bother with Huyang. " Shen side imperial concubine one face sincerely persuades.

Pei Shi stares at Shen side imperial concubine, "you shut up for this princess. Do you really think the princess can't see it

Shen side imperial concubine cries out: "my body is wronged! The princess is angry with Huyang. Why should she be angry with me? "

Pei's face was impatient, "get out of here, all to this princess."

She thought, in this life, she would really die in Hu Yang's hands.

Huyang is definitely Laker.

No, she can't watch Hu Yang move the money out of the palace.

"Come on, Princess Ben is staring at the imperial palace. If there is any disturbance, report it immediately. "

The servant took orders and left.

All of them have left Chunhe hall.

Luo side imperial concubine asks Shen side imperial concubine quietly, "the account room still has 45000 Liang deposit silver really?"

"Who knows." Shen side imperial concubine does not care much to say.

Luo side imperial concubine murmured in a low voice, "the prince used southwest silver to replace Guanping silver. If this is true, then there must be some money in the palace. Since I have money, why does the princess still say that she has no money and let me wait for the cutting cost. "

Shen side imperial concubine ha ha a smile, "all are excuses."

Luo side imperial concubine thought, catch up with Gu Jiu.

"Madam, please wait."

Gu nine turns back, "Luo side imperial concubine calls to stop me, but something tells."

Luo side imperial concubine is polite, "command dare not be. There's just one thing I want to prove. "

Gu Jiu knew clearly in his heart, or asked, "what's the matter?"

Luo side imperial concubine asks quietly: "the prince used 45000 taels of Southwest silver to swap official Ping silver. Is this true?"

Gu Jiu nodded and acquiesced.

Luo side imperial concubine said in a hurry: "so say, Lake Yang did not lie, the palace does have a sum of 45000 liang of silver."

Gu Jiu smiles, "I don't know about it. Luo side imperial concubine might as well ask the Lord. "

Luo side imperial concubine shakes her head repeatedly, how dare she ask Ning Wang.

"Thank you for telling me the truth."

Finish saying, Luo side imperial concubine catch up with Shen side imperial concubine, leave in a hurry.

Mother Fang told Gu Jiu in a whisper, "the princess wants to cut the cost of each courtyard on the pretext that she has no money to pay off her debts. Now it seems that Shen side imperial concubine and Luo side imperial concubine are definitely not willing to be cut

Gu Jiu said softly, "it's easy to change from thrifty to extravagant, but from extravagance to thrifty. I'm used to the days of wealth. Of course, no one is willing to be cut. Maybe the princess will stab the hornet's nest

Ouyang Fu sighed, and her face was sad. "If the mother Princess wants to cut the expenses of each hospital, she will certainly take you out of the common people to do the operation first. In our yard, it's going to be miserable soon. "

Gu Jiuchao looked at her and comforted her: "the princess just said that she didn't really want to cut the cost. The second younger brother and sister don't have to worry too much."

Ouyang Fu shook her head. "Sister-in-law doesn't know. In fact, last year, the mother and concubine mentioned the cost of cutting, but she didn't find a chance. This time, the Ministry of household cleaning up the accumulated debts, the mother and concubine will certainly not miss this opportunity. "

Oh?

It turns out that Pei had this idea for a long time, rather than a temporary one.

In this case, Pei is likely to come to really, really cut the cost of each hospital.

Gu Jiu asked: "do you know the second younger brother and younger sister, which aspects does the princess plan to cut the cost?"

If you want to cut expenditure, you have to lay off people or cut wages. These are usually the two ways.

Speaking of it, the expenditure of the palace is really frightening. The monthly expenditure is 10000 units.

The palace of nearly a thousand people costs tens of thousands of taels of silver a month.

In addition to eating, drinking, playing and social intercourse, it is not enough to spend thirty or forty thousand Liang a month.

If you meet three festivals and two lives, it's even worse. I'm afraid it's all spent.

There is also Ning Wang to raise people, natural hand can not be stingy.

It's no wonder that the prince's residence has to go to the Ministry of housing every year to play in the autumn. In a few years, it owes more than 300000 taels.

Pei wants to cut the cost, it is also natural.

If the expenditure is too large, if it is not controlled, the palace will spend more than it can afford. Just like Princess Huyang, she worries about money every day.

"It's possible to cut down the manpower and reduce the monthly salary of the servants," Ouyang Fu said

Gu Jiu said: "just reducing the monthly silver of the servants will not save much money in a month. To solve the problem of money, we should open source. "The imperial system is here, and the palace area is so large. Such a large mansion requires so many people to manage it.

It's just a matter of sweeping. Such a large area is not all kinds of vacuum cleaners and automatic tools in the past life. These days, we all rely on human power to clean and wipe them. Think about the workload, how many people have to be arranged to be busy.

I want to get my monthly silver with my toes. The servant must be full of resentment and all kinds of sabotage.

If you can't cut monthly silver, you can only cut people.

However, after cutting people, such as sweeping, there are not enough people to do it. If the cleaning is not in place, there will be dust on the ground.

It's not decent enough.
