Chapter 504
How could Xiao Xu not understand what Jing Yu said?
The more Chu Junlan treated him like this, the more he felt ashamed of her. She gave so much, but he forgot about her and was still lying to her...
Just as he was thinking, the brisk footsteps came from the yard and the pleasant voices of Chu Junlan and his maid. Xiao Xu calmed down and greeted him with a smile.
At the same time, Princess Zhang also heard Madam Geng talk about Chu Junlan's series of measures.
"I really give her the courage!" Princess Zhang sneered, "Cai didn't know whether it was pretending to be shit or urine in her mind. Concubine Shu and Chu Junlan were not in harmony, but she helped Chu Junlan stand up. She was not afraid that Concubine Shu would find out and blame her!"
"The princess is angry. It will be no harm to us if Princess Cai does this. You haven't seen that the eighteen concubines and other concubines can even hang oil bottles with pouting mouths."
Madam Geng covered her mouth and said proudly: "Wait and see. Now Cai and Chu are thorns in their side. Maybe how can they cause trouble in the future? Think about it, which of the nannies in our mansion is a good-efficient lamp? Cai's bad idea was to ask them to use the silver to get the cards. Let's take a look in more than a month. Chu's hand is not enough for them to use the silver!"
Princess Zhang laughed when she heard this: "I don't believe it. She dares to touch the cost of me and Peng'er! The emperor knows that Peng'er is wronged and needs treatment. Do she dare to object to my Peng'er's money?"
"That's right. Let's wait and see the joke."
On the first day of May, the third day after the notice was posted, Chu Junlan did not wait for anyone to come to question or object. However, Princess Zhang got the message from Princess Jing and entered the palace early in the morning with a big makeup.
"Criminal Princess, Princess Zhang is going to the palace. I'm afraid she'll be proud again when she comes back." Zi Yan brought the chicken soup prepared by Chu Junlan.
Chu Junlan got up and served a small bowl for Xiao Xu.
Xiao Xu took the soup bowl and took a bite.
Jing Yu explained on the side: "The Concubine Jing is an old man in the emperor's residence. Although he has no son, he is no longer favored now, but his position is there. The emperor also respects Concubine Jing very much. Concubine Jing has a noble character and is very simple. He rarely interferes in matters outside. Today, he suddenly summons Princess Zhang into the palace. The matter is really strange."
Chu Junlan raised his eyebrows: "There are no strange things in our mansion that have attracted the attention of Concubine Jing recently. It's just the notice in front of the mansion."
Xiao put down the soup bowl and looked at Chu Junlan gently with his eyebrows and eyes: "It's probably because of this."
Xiao Xu had a good guess. At this time, Concubine Jing was looking at Princess Zhang with disagreement, and gently persuaded: "... Although I am an outsider, it is not good to see things. I don't know how many people in the city are talking about it now, especially other nobles and relatives... Princess Zhang is a smart person, and I think he knows how important it is to be a wife. Your monthly money is thirty taels, and the second prince is the legitimate son, and the monthly money of your mother and two is 10 taels per month. But your prince's monthly money is cut into the rest of the legitimate son, which is unreasonable. When I went to see the emperor before, I heard people talk about it casually..."
Princess Zhang lowered her head and was taught, her forehead was covered with cold sweat.
Concubine Jing obviously called her to come after listening to the emperor's orders. Their palace was a clan relative, and this kind of thing happened not only to make the clan laugh at the clan, but also to make the court officials laugh at the Tian family, which made the emperor lose his dignity.
No wonder that little little Chu Junlan would post the notice. She must have calculated the reactions of the emperor, clan and court officials, and just waited for her to make a fool of herself!
Princess Zhang returned to the mansion with a breath and immediately ordered Madam Geng: "Go and call Chu!"
Madam Geng immediately followed the instructions and quickly went to Jingxuan to call someone.
But in a moment, Chu Junlan came with his maid, and there was also someone unexpectedly whom Princess Zhang came.
"Why is the prince free now?"
Xiao Xu bowed and looked for a seat beside him and sat down, "You can do whatever you want, I'm just accompanying you."
It was obvious that I was afraid that Chu Junlan would be angry and came to support her!
Princess Zhang clenched her fists tightly, her forehead was full of blue veins, and she looked at Chu Junlan with gritted teeth: "Chu, immediately ask someone to remove the notice outside the mansion! What's your mind? You are asking you to spread this matter at home. Do you want everyone to see the jokes about our mansion?"
Chu Junlan smiled and bowed: "Princess, please calm down, please tell me to remove the notice, then take it down, there is nothing shameful about our palace, and it will not cause any jokes."
"you!"
"As for the notice, I think it is very effective. From now on, I will post the arrangements and expenses of the mansion every month, so that everything will be fair, open and just. One way is to let people know that I handle things fairly, and the other way is to let the nannies in each room prove their innocence. Third, it is also to let people outside know that everything in our palace is clear and clear. What do you think this is done?"
"You! You are simply cunning!"
"You are not good to calm down your anger. What are you talking about? You are not cunning? To put it bluntly, we are all the wives of the royal family for the future of the royal family. Besides, if the accounts are not made public, everyone has a scale in their hearts. Do you think? It has been posted for three days now, and no one has opposed it. Just follow this plan and the notice will be torn."
"Get out! Get out!" Princess Zhang was finally crazy and couldn't bear it. She smashed the tea bowl at her hand.
Chu Junlan smiled, completely ignored Princess Zhang's anger, and saluted: "Yes, then I will take my leave."
Xiao Xu also stood up, looked at the tea bowl that Princess Zhang had thrown on the ground, and said in a deep voice: "The princess should take care of her. The second brother is still waiting for the princess to take care of her." After that, he bowed and went out with Chu Junlan.
Princess Zhang was so thumped that she screamed wildly, lifted the table and smashed the tea tray, and even her favorite pair of plum bottles were thrown to the ground.
The room was in a mess, and Madam Geng was so scared that she didn't dare to go in.
After a while, Princess Zhang said sharply: "Xinyue!"
"Yes, princess!" Xinyue shrank her neck, sighed in secretly that she was unlucky, and bowed into the room.
Princess Zhang said: "You, go to Jingxuan and tell Chu Junlan that I only use thirty taels per month. Peng'er follows the rules and tells her not to tear the notice, change our expenses and display it for a while!"
"Yes!" Xinyue hurried to Jingxuan to report the news.
On the way back to Jingxuan, Jing Yu was excited and said: "Criminal Princess, will you tear off the notice? I'll go now!"
