The playboy daughter is about to turn the sky

Chapter 157
Ye Li only knew how huge Wen Yan's monthly expenses were after reading the account book, but she made more than a dozen clothes in just one month, let alone all kinds of hairpins, isn't this too crazy?

This account book should not be called the daily expenses of the palace, it should be called the second lady's monthly expenses.

She knew how extravagant the Zhaixing Pavilion was, but she really didn't know that it was so extravagant and wasted. She remembered that the monthly salary of the commander of Jinyiwei was only 35 shi, and the annual salary was only about [-] shi. The expenses of everyone's family, naturally not much will be distributed to Wen Yan, the Wen family is incapable of raising such a lavish daughter.

Wen Yan has only been in the palace for three years, yet she has developed such a profligate habit?

According to this method of flowering, even mountains of gold and silver cannot last long.

Ye Li closed the ledger, stretched out her hand and touched the center of her eyebrows: "Xiao Cui, you go and ask Guanshi Li to come over, just say that my princess has something to ask Guanshi Li."

Xiaocui saluted and turned around, Yan'er stepped forward to take the account book and put it aside, and gently massaged Ye Li's shoulders: "Why does the princess look uncomfortable? Is the account book too difficult?"

Ye Li let out a sigh of relief and remained silent for a long while. Seeing that the princess was upset, Yan'er stopped talking and making noise, and only concentrated on pressing her muscles and bones.

Xiaocui soon brought Guanshi Li in, and Ye Li opened her eyes, looked at Guanshi Li and asked directly: "My princess found something unusual when she looked at the account book today, and Guanshi Li knew about it if she wanted to come, Second Madam The cost of the room is too high."

Li Guanshi lowered his hands and replied respectfully: "The princess is right, according to the rules, the monthly pocket money in the second wife's room is 50 taels of silver."

Ye Li sneered, how could 50 taels be enough for a gentle face?I'm afraid that 500 taels will not be able to satisfy her greed.

She leaned on the back of the chair, looked at Guanshi Li and said, "Does Second Madam spend this much on weekdays?"

"Returning to the princess, before you married into the palace, the second lady's monthly expenses were about 120 seven taels of silver. After you married into the palace, the second lady's monthly expenses have been increasing." Li Guanshi is obviously very clear. , "The expenditure has exceeded the regulations of the palace, and the prince is also aware of this."

Not only knew, but hadn't commented on it for several years.

Ye Li was silent.

Thinking about it, I am afraid that such expenses are also promised by King Jing. King Jing has grown up in the palace since he was a child. I am afraid that he has never even touched silver, and he has no concept of silver. One tael is no different from 100 taels to him. Wang said it might not be a big deal.

But Ye Li is different, her background is destined to be the most sensitive to money, 50 taels of silver is already a huge amount of money, and there are public accounts issued by the palace everywhere in the Zhaixing Pavilion, almost no money is used in daily life, and the money is spent on the new style. On the clothes and accessories, counting the monthly expenses of the Zhaixing Pavilion, Wen Yan's 50 taels of pocket money, one can imagine how much the entire Zhaixing Pavilion spends every month.

It was fine in the past, but now that she has taken over the mansion, there are no rules and no rules, so she will not allow Wen Yan to live so freely and happily in public or private.

"Li Guanshi, according to the rules, how much should the monthly expenses of Zhaixing Pavilion be?" Ye Li asked Li Guanshi after pondering for a while.

"As for the princess, it's 30 taels per month." Guanshi Li knows these things well, and Guanshi Li doesn't even have to think about answering quickly.

30 taels?

Not a fraction of what it costs today.

Ye Li smiled slightly, wondering if she cut off Wen Yan's expenses, would Wen Yan rush to Shuiyunjian to settle accounts with her in a panic?
"Guard Li, from next month, the second wife's room expenses will be counted as 30 taels, and any excess, even a penny, is not allowed to be taken from the public account." She smiled kindly, You just have to deal with this matter, if the second wife is not satisfied, you don't have to make things difficult, let her come to this princess."

"Yes."

Manager Li agreed.

Xiao Cui was listening to the two talking, and couldn't help interjecting: "According to the temperament of the second lady, I'm afraid there will be troubles again and there will be no peace."

Grandma Su also listened to it when she came back from her work outside, she was also worried about it, and said to Ye Li: "Second Madam is not such a temper, Princess, you have to think twice!" Ma'am, if the second lady blows the pillow wind in the prince's ear, then the princess will suffer a lot?

Up to now, the prince has not stepped into the princess's room yet!

Speaking of this, Madam Su was about to sigh again.

Ye Li saw that the people below were worrying about her, but she looked calm and relaxed, not worried about whether Wen Yan would harm her: "This princess is just acting according to the rules of the palace, no matter how dissatisfied the second lady is, so what ? These rules are not set by this princess."

If you have the ability, go find the empress who violates these rules.

"Okay, I don't have any other arrangements here. Manager Li, go back and do your own work, Xiaocui. Bring some of the Yuqian Longjing that I often drink to Manager Li."

"The servant thanked the princess for the reward, and the servant is leaving." Li Guanshi turned and left. Ye Li looked at Madam Su and said with a smile, "Mama looks like this, but do you have something to say?"

"This old slave has the guts to persuade the princess that the second lady is really not easy to get along with. If you want to clean up the palace, you don't necessarily have to use the second lady as a knife. After all, the prince loves the second lady so much."

Whether Wen Yan gets along well, she thinks no one knows better than herself.

What's more, she won't tell Madam Su that she danced on purpose to be the master of the stars.

Wen Yan is the enemy who killed her, and she will definitely not make the person who killed her feel better in this life.

Wen Yan, weak and boneless leaning on the imperial concubine's couch, the maid serving at the side fanned her, another maid kneaded her legs for her, and Que'er stood beside her, diligently peeling oranges for her.

"Why haven't you seen Li Wei in the past few days?"

Wen Yan suddenly remembered something and asked Que'er.

Although the confinement has not been over for [-] days, she has regained her freedom to move around. It is impossible for Li Weicai, as the steward of the mansion, to not know about it.

Que'er thought of the rumors outside and didn't dare to answer for a while, her hand trembled and almost dropped the orange on the ground.

"If you go back to Madam, the slaves don't know." With the lesson from last time, Que'er no longer dares to say anything nonsense in front of the Second Madam.

Wen Yan rolled her eyes at Que'er, and sat up straight: "I don't know anything, you are such a useless slut, I really don't know why my wife is raising you?"
