Chapter 499 Who is the Master?
Mother Qu looked around and looked a little proud and arrogant in her expression. When she looked at Chu Junlan again, she even looked up at her, regardless of the status of the master and servant, and said, "Go back to the princess, the distribution of each house is uneven, and there are still defaults. Not to mention elsewhere, it is only in the big kitchen. The original expense of 200 taels of silver has been reduced to 100 taels, but the population in the mansion has increased a lot. The extra room needs no more, but there is no filling. Where can I get the deficit money? "
After Qu's mother said this, Liu's mother also said: "Yes, the princess, even the monthly money and money of the eighteen concubines in the family are sometimes paid out every other month. The girls' rouge and water powder, the young men's pens, ink, paper and ink, are required to fill the money by themselves."
These two people started, and the rest talked in a verbal way. The central idea was to ask for money.
The servants in charge said something more and more unfair, and their voices were raised a little bit, and the vegetation soon became noisy in the vegetable market.
After hearing these situations, Chu Junlan took the account book and flipped it out.
All the accounts can be decorated, but reality cannot be erased with just a few sketches.
At this time, Mother Han also said, "Go back to the princess, don't talk about anything else, but Jingxuan, the prince's share was originally twenty taels per month, but now it is said that it has been reduced to ten taels of silver. But I have not received any payment yet. But I also heard that the remaining concubines and ladies had always had thirty taels of silver in the houses of the other concubines, which is more than the prince's share. Even if it is reduced, it has not been implemented yet. The second prince's account in the house is sixty taels, and now I have to hire a doctor, and it costs more than one hundred taels."
After saying this, Chu Junlan and Xiao Xu's Jingxuan were immediately brought into the ranks of the victims.
It turned out that not only did they have insufficient money, but even the prince's monthly money was reduced to ten taels. But the prince's monthly money was thirty taels.
I have never seen that rich family. The illegitimate young man has so much money for a month, at most ten or two ink money is worth the most.
It was like cold water dripping into the hot oil pan, and the pot exploded in the room.
Chu Junlan raised his hand and made a gesture of silence.
The discussion in the house became a little less.
"I understand this matter. After the account is checked, the matter will be resolved. There is another thing that you need to pay attention to."
The discussion in the room stopped completely, and the servants looked at Chu Junlan, not knowing what she was going to do for a moment.
Chu Junlan said: "From today, after the keys are set in the royal palace, each room will conduct random inspections. Some people are not good at work in the middle of the night, those who eat alcohol, gamble, and those who pass on things, but are wandering around when they should sleep, and even neglect their duties and throw away their errands. Once such matters are discovered, they will be severely punished."
The quiet needles in the house can be heard.
The servants outside the door also looked at each other and felt very uncomfortable for a moment. It was not pleasant to be said by the master.
Chu Junlan said: "The rules can be corrected if there are chaos. If there are less money to pay, you can make up for it. If there are more money to get it, you can give it back. But if you don't do your own job, I won't tolerate it."
Chu Junlan put away his smile and his eyes were sharp and his aura was intimidating. He was not as easy to talk as he was when he asked just now.
"I am a reasonable person. I can do the rewards and punishments clearly. I hope you can understand what should be done and what should not be done. I will solve the problems that should be solved, but if there is a big slave bullying the master, I will definitely not allow it. Have you heard it clearly?"
The servants were suffocated by Chu Junlan's question, and then they all said, "Yes, I heard it clearly."
Chu Junlan waved his hand and said, "Okay. I know what you are doing today. Three days later, the hour of Mao is right, and a meeting is held here to solve the things proposed today. Let's all be dispersed."
"Yes." The servants retreated as they said, and even the late mother Qu's attitude became much more respectful.
When the person left, Chu Junlan stood up and returned to Jingxuan.
At the same time, what happened in the front hall was also heard by Princess Zhang.
"Princess, please look at me. The princess is trying to take the opportunity to cause trouble!" The most powerful Madam Geng beside Princess Zhang whispered, "She incited the emotions of these mothers in charge of the affairs, and it is obvious that she is preparing for a big conference in three days!"
Princess Zhang sneered: "Even so, so what?"
"Princess?" Madam Geng smiled intriguingly, "I am confused and don't understand what the princess means."
Princess Zhang said: "Even if she knows that the distribution of each house is not well-off, what can she do? I only gave her the cards and asked her to manage the family, but the common affairs were not handed over to her. She couldn't even manage the household's inputs. There was only a little money in the total account. This one was less, and that one was more than one day or two. She wanted to compensate for the less, but there was no silver in the account. Could she still take out the silver from the more hands and replenish the less supply?"
Madam Geng suddenly smiled and said, "After all, it's the princess who is Gao Ming? If she does this, will the whole family offend her?"
"As the saying goes, from the exotic to the simple, I also know that the princesses have only eight taels per month for other princesses, not to mention those who have not been named and have concubines. But after our family has been like this for many years, I have to give Peng'er some good things, so I have to give them some sweetness to block their mouths. Now that the mansion is in such chaos, I am about to see what Chu Junlan can do."
Madam Geng raised her thumbs up and compared to Princess Zhang: "I didn't understand it at first, but now I understand it completely. The princess is very clever, so I just see how the Chu surnamed blocks this hole."
Princess Zhang smiled and said proudly: "Is it so easy for the master to take charge of the family?"

In the evening, dark clouds were heavy on the sky above the capital, and it was obvious that a heavy rain was coming.
In front of the prison of the Ministry of Justice, Ye Yijian, who was wearing a Yulin Forewarrior's official uniform, just walked out of the prison, saw Xiao Xu wearing a jade-colored narrow-sleeved brocade robe not far away, standing with his hands behind his back expressionless face.
Ye Yijian was stunned and sneered: "I didn't expect someone else to pick me up."
Xiao Xu walked forward slowly, stood in front of Ye Yijian with a calm face, looked him up and down with a gloomy eyes, and saw that there was no one on the left and right, whispered: "That thing has something to do with you."
Ye Yijian raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "The prince is talking about the murder of the Yulin Avant-garde? You are really joking. If this matter is really related to me, do you think I can come out safely? The night the incident happened to be called by the emperor, and I was in the palace and was with the emperor."
Shaking his head, Ye Yijian smiled bitterly and said, "Oh, fortunately, it was the emperor who summoned him that day, otherwise I wouldn't even be able to wash it even if I jumped into the Yellow River."
Xiao Xu looked at Ye Yijian and looked at every laughing expression very clearly, and said meaningfully: "Okay, since you say that, that's it."
"What does the prince mean?"
