The Beloved Imperial Consort

Chapter 404 For Whom?

"The concubine checked the accounts, and then asked the people in the palace to ask questions in person. In the end, I realized that the problem was probably caused by the sewing room and the comprador in the East Palace. But which side lost the money, and the accounts of the two sides couldn't match up. The concubine can't make up her mind for a while."

The top of the comprador? There was a table of delicious food in front of her, and Mu Xiyao looked helpless at the unexpected guest who interrupted her meal. This woman is too persecuted and paranoid, **** suspects that she wants to seize the throne. Even Mrs. Zhang, who got too close to her, was on guard at all times, trying to grab power when she had the chance.

Su Linrou has always been in charge of the sewing room, but she was the one who bought it for her own convenience, so she recommended Mrs. Zhang to help. On weekdays, whenever she thinks about eating outside the palace or buying some exotic gadgets for the two little ones, she asks Madam Zhao to come over and say hello, and Mrs. Zhang will handle things properly.

Ever since she got a share of the profits from the comprador, Zhang's life has been better, but she didn't know that it was Mu Liangdi who spoke for her in front of the crown prince. Mrs. Zhang is also a knowledgeable and interesting person, thinking of reciprocating, she is very attentive to the errand assigned by Mu Xiyao. Moreover, Zhang Baolin is not afraid of others asking for trouble, the objects Liang Di empress asks for every time... are really far from her noble status.

Jinsi siu mai from Juxianlou, medicated elbow from Derentang, drunken duck at the mouth of Yuqian Hutong...they don’t spend a few taels of money in one month. Moreover, the empress was generous, and for the three taels of food, she insisted on adding up to five taels more, and most of them just said that it was too much trouble and gave it to the people below.

Don't say that Mrs. Zhang will not turn down this errand without opening her eyes, she is just running errands, and when she hears that she is doing errands for Huiyi Palace Master, who can not rush to grab it.

Now that Helian Minmin came to her palace to seek trouble with Zhang Shi in front of Zong Zhenglin, she would naturally lose face as a recommender.

Mu Xiyao remained calm, she was not in a hurry about this matter, and Zhang was not the only one involved. What's more, one hundred and twenty thousand taels of silver was missing inexplicably, when everyone in the Eastern Palace wore gold and silver, and bird's nests were kept in the palace?

What she could think of, Zong Zhenglin would naturally not be fooled.

"The princess is saying that the lonely palace spends too much money, and the daily expenses are more than a hundred thousand?" The man stroked his fingers, his eyes dark and difficult to understand. When Zongzheng Chun was still the crown prince, he was very extravagant and licentious, and used money from the household department. He never heard that he could lose such a large amount of money just by comprador sewing.

Seeing Helian's hesitating to speak, seeming to have other secrets, Zong Zhenglin turned his head and saw the eyes of the little woman next to him fixed on the lotus shrimp balls, not paying attention to what he said to the two of them.

"Hungry?" Picking up the jade chopsticks to pick up a piece of golden meatballs full of shrimp meat for her, and seeing Helian sitting awkwardly, Fang opened his mouth lightly. "Since we're here, let's eat together."

Helian Minmin reluctantly hooked the corners of his lips, never expecting that things would be interrupted for no reason.

Seeing that Mu Shi didn't obey the rules, he got up and moved his position in the hope that she wouldn't come up. She had to wait for Mammy Zhao to call for someone to add a seat, and then she tidied up and sat down dignifiedly.

Instead of having dinner in Mu Xiyao's Palace, the Crown Princess' expression almost became tense.

Because of Mu Liangdi's "cold body" and being unable to stand the wind, Mu's family got the crown prince's permission to come to her Yuzhao Palace for morning and evening sleep, so they have not been at the same table for a long time.

Now on her territory, I really saw how vulgar and ignorant this woman is. Their tempers are actually a bit more arrogant than they usually think.

There were three people at the table, and the two of them were more noble than her, but she had the most problems.

"I picked up one more chopstick, and I'm tired of it." Holding the chopsticks twice, Zuo Nan raised his eyes to look at him.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was sitting upright, raising his hands and feet gracefully, and his royal upbringing was very appropriate. Accustomed to her temper becoming more and more spoiled, hearing her complain, he naturally handed over the white jade porcelain bowl. Seeing that the little girl was smiling, he quickly put the piece of braised meat she couldn't eat into his bowl, stretched out his chopsticks, and went to pick up the steamed crab meat.

Helian Minmin frowned slightly, and immersed himself in eating, his appetite greatly reduced. Seeing the tacit understanding between the two of them, one can tell that Zong Zhenglin is usually so used to that woman. Feeling flustered, looking at the table full of food, I can't even look down on any of them.

From the corner of the eye, Helianshi caught a glimpse of her chopsticks, lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes, seeming displeased. Looking at the woman on the other side who has a good appetite, her cheeks are bulging, her eyes are shining, she is eating from a bowl and looking at the pot, Zong Zhenglin raised her eyelids slightly, and silently added her favorite lettuce with chopsticks.

Mu Xiyao frowned and smiled at him flatteringly, extremely satisfied.

promising! While enjoying the fun of feeding, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince disliked domesticated rabbits as such an unworthy idea.

Compared with the concubine in his East Palace, this woman's mind is obviously useless where it should be.

After the meal, Mu Xiyao was satisfied, she rinsed her mouth with a teacup, and was about to see what Helianshi would sing today, but unexpectedly Zong Zhenglin spoke first.

"I don't want anyone to make trouble with this matter. Princess, go to the harem and be more careful."

The two women were stunned at the same time, with very different expressions on their faces.

Mu Xiyao puffed her beautiful eyes, her surprise was undisguised. After staring at him for a while, grievances gradually appeared in his eyes. Why did Helian's make such a fuss, even if it was 120,000 taels, he would be willing to do so. The red envelope given to her has never been so generous.

Mu Yaonv forgot all about the storefront Zhuangzi's private property that His Highness the Crown Prince had privately given to her. I just remember that every new year's day, the amount of bank notes in handshakes is only three to fifty thousand taels.

Being stared at by her aggrieved appearance, Zong Zhenglin's heart was thumped. If no one else was here, he would have asked her to bring out the account book and handed it to her, so that he could see clearly. The benefits between him and her cannot be measured by money.

Unlike Mu Liangdi who was wholeheartedly petty, after the initial shock, the princess's eyes were quite complicated. It seemed to be relieved, but also slightly unwilling.

Hearing what His Royal Highness said, this matter is over.

Helian Minmin was overjoyed to be able to escape his investigation. No matter how delicate the arrangement was, she didn't dare to pat her chest to ensure that it was perfect. But just exposing it like this is not like Zong Zhenglin's style.

Could it be that he was covering her up again?

My heart suddenly became heavy. Does this even protect Zhang who is attached to her?

It's a pity that she was still thinking about grabbing the Zhuge family... This step is no longer feasible. A few months ago, she complained of illness, and temporarily handed over the general affairs to the Su family and the Zhuge family to take care of them together. It didn't take long, but in those three days, the books were all in the hands of others.

Helian Minmin's heart was full of mixed feelings, and he was even more depressed than when he was eating.

Zong Zhenglin squinted his eyes slightly, and his eyes fell on the concubine who had resigned. Mu Xiyao saw it accidentally, and couldn't help but shivered.

Just say that he shouldn't expose such bad things for no reason. Unexpectedly, things seemed to be more serious than she imagined. Familiar with his habits, she was absolutely right.

Just now, what is hidden deep in this man's eyes is clearly hatred and contempt.
