Started to get rich after exile

Chapter 144: Entering the Prince’s Mansion in Detail

Ming Lanying looked at the slender woman kneeling on the ground. She was as charming and colorful as a dodder flower, and Ye Juelu had someone send her back. It was hard not to think too much about her.

"What did the lord say?"

"The prince said to let the princess do whatever she wants."

Ming Lanying chuckled, "Go back and tell the prince, he'd better be innocent."

"Yes!"

Ming Lanying was not stupid. The woman who was sent back from the front was left to her own devices. Of course she was not going to be stuffed into the backyard, but she didn't know who she was. She was just trying to scare him.

After the guards left, Ming Lanying slowly sat on the main seat and drank tea. Aunt Cai and the two stewards Wang looked at each other, somewhat worried about the feelings of their masters and sons.

Ming Lanying glanced at the people on the ground and took a sip of tea slowly, "What's your name?"

"Reply to Madam, slave Arnold."

"Servant?"

Ming Lanying stared at her suspiciously, who was so willing to let such a slave go?
"Look up and let me see."

Arnold didn't know why he was suddenly sent here, but the woman in front of him should be the wife of their prince who led the army. She should be able to stay by pretending to be humble and flattering.

Arnold raised his head cautiously, and suddenly his water-blue eyes widened.

The appearance of the woman in front of her was not inferior to hers!
Arnold is confident that his appearance is rare in the world, and it is not an exaggeration to call it peerless.But the woman in front of her was pretty and beautiful, and her temperament was much higher than hers!

Just sitting there is enough to attract people.

As long as she is here, the general will not be able to see him.

Arnold gritted his teeth secretly, feeling that his mission was a bit unsatisfactory.

This woman cannot stay!
Ming Lanying knew nothing about her malice, but the little black panther lying in the shadow at her feet was keenly aware of it. A pair of cat eyes in the shadow stared at the malicious woman.

Ming Lanying clicked her tongue twice in wonder, such a beautiful slave is rare!
"You were picked up on the battlefield? Why did you, a slave, appear on the battlefield?"

Arnold immediately burst into tears and said choked with sobs: "This slave was originally just a dancer. Because of her beauty, she was given to the general by her master. I hate that the general can't defeat him, so he uses humble and lowly people like us as human shields to block the knives!"

"This slave took advantage of the chaos and hid. This slave is lucky and is the only one who survived. I beg you, madam, to take pity on this slave and keep me here. I can do anything! Just reward me with a mouthful of food!"

As she spoke, she kowtowed several times, and her movements were elegant and beautiful, which also showed her weakness. The main idea was that a man would feel distressed and a woman would feel sympathy.

"Please, Madam, have mercy on this slave! Please Madam, have mercy on this slave!"

Ming Lanying likes to see pretty beauties. Beauties are cute even if they do small mistakes, but femme fatales are none of her business.

Glancing at Aunt Cai and the two stewards next to her, she saw that Aunt Cai was serious and didn't like to laugh, and she couldn't even laugh at this moment.

The two stewards were indeed siblings. At this moment, their kind smiles disappeared, and they both looked at Arnold expressionlessly.

Ming Lanying asked the only male present, "Changchang, what do you think?"

Wang Changying was used to the strange names the princess used to call them, and she lowered her eyebrows to cover up the coldness in her eyes, "Returning to the princess, there is no shortage of food for everyone in the house, but it does not support idle people," Miss Arnold looked at her fingers Those who are not touched by Yang Chun Shui may not be able to do much."

Seeing her brother's reserved words, Wang Yuying stood up and said, "Reply to the princess, I think this girl Arnold doesn't look like a dancer, but more like a concubine raised by the master. Why not let her dance a song to prove herself."

These words had a hint of contempt and disdain. Arnold lowered his eyebrows and pretended to be submissive. He had already made a note of this sum in his heart and was determined to get it back.

The two siblings have been taught the affairs of the palace by Manager Wang since they were young. As a qualified manager, they are very aware of this kind of woman who deliberately destroys the harmonious family of the palace.

There are many ways to deal with it. As long as the owner can tolerate it, they will turn a blind eye.

The hosts cannot tolerate it, and they find various ways to keep them alive on the surface.

Ming Lanying clapped her hands and agreed, "Well, Arnold, dance a song first and let me see! Whether you can stay or not depends on your ability."

Wang Yuying immediately interjected, "Princess Qi, there is still a shortage of people in the palace to clean the toilet bowl!"

Ming Lanying nodded and looked at Arnold, who had a strange expression on his face. "If you can't do it, just clean the Gongtong! I'll give you a penny a month."

The lowest monthly salary in the palace is one tael of silver, which is really insulting.

But Arnold didn't know. He just thought that the princess was afraid of her appearance and wanted to tease her.

Arnold showed gratitude and kowtowed gently, "I obey, my slave."

Arnold was still wearing a tattered dancer's costume, but it added a bit of war-damaged beauty to her.

There was no music, just a few small bells on her feet jingling.

Ming Lanying was not used to dancing without music, and it looked dry and boring. Arnold spun and jumped without changing his expression, and occasionally gave her a few winks.

Her dance is not an ordinary dance, coupled with the interference of special bells on her feet, both men and women will gradually become addicted to her dance, and those who are not steady-minded will fall into it.

She used this method to help her queen win the throne.

Arnold is confident that these people will be captured by her, and the palace will not be easily in her hands by then!

But several people present were wary of her, and their wariness prevented them from being easily confused. Only Ming Lanying, who was in a trance, was affected by her.

Ming Lanying yawned slowly, still thinking about why Ye Juelu sent a dancing girl back. Letting her handle it proved that this woman was not an important person. Could it be that she was from an enemy country?Or is it fine work?
The bell rang from time to time, which was hypnotic and made people sleepy. Ming Lanying suddenly felt that this dry dance was much more pleasing to the eye, and she couldn't help but feel a little fond of the dancer.

Just when she was about to say a few words of praise, the little black panther jumped onto her lap. Like an overlord whose territory had been invaded, it fluffed up its fur and arched its back, growling at Arnold and showing off its fangs.

Arnold was so startled by the sudden appearance of the little black panther that he forgot all his subconscious actions. As a result, he stumbled with his left foot and lost his center of gravity with his right foot, and fell directly towards the guest chair beside him.

The solid wood armchair was knocked over by her, and the armrests and edge of the seat struck hard on her chest and lower back bones.

With a scream, Arnold fell to the ground in pain.

Ming Lanying was slapped by the little black panther's tail and immediately woke up. She was still wondering why she suddenly liked her just now.

He looked at Arnold who suddenly fell down in confusion, and raised his hand to comfort the suddenly fierce little black panther on his lap.

"What's wrong? Are you scared by Xiao Hei? Can you still jump?"

The two stewards chuckled and looked at each other, the mockery in their eyes was obvious.

That's it?That's it?How dare you join in, what a joke!

Arnold endured the pain and knelt down at her feet, "Please Madam... forgive me! I am timid and frightened by Madam's love. As long as Madam is willing to give this slave a bite of food, I can do anything!"

She has endured this humiliation, she must stay in this palace, and the humiliation she has suffered will be washed away with the blood of these people sooner or later!
Ming Lanying lowered her head and glanced at the dark little black panther, and then at Arnold who was lying submissively. "Okay, then you can stay in the mansion and clean the toilet bowl first! But since you are a dancing girl, don't waste your dancing talent. I am also free in the mansion. You can clean yourself after cleaning the toilet bucket every day. Come dance a song for me."

"Yes."

Arnold lowered his head deeply and hid the murderous look in his eyes in his arms.

Arnold signed a deed of sale to Wang Changying and returned to the rear to be managed by the king.

She originally wanted to wait for no one to figure out the layout of the palace quietly, but she found that no matter what time, someone was always staring at her!
The servants in the mansion would always have various excuses to spy on her, and with their unconcealed vigilant eyes, Arnold was so angry that he wanted to go crazy.

Everyone in the palace knew that she was picked up by the prince, but no one flattered her, not even the most basic equal treatment!

She didn't understand what was going on with these people, but she had to find the opportunity to get rid of that woman first!

As night fell, Arnold's first night in the palace was watched by a room full of maids, and she forced herself to fall asleep.

There was a little black panther lying next to Ming Lanying's pillow. During the day, the little black panther became irritable when he saw Arnold, and wanted to pounce on her and bite her throat immediately.

This made Ming Lanying realize that animals' intuition is the most accurate. She didn't believe in her own intuition, but she believed in the intuition of beasts.

Ming Lanying felt a sudden thought when she remembered that she was in a trance while watching Arnold dance during the day.

"It's not that weird..." He raised his hand and rubbed the little black panther's head, "This woman is weird. Xiao Hei stares at her and bites her if she behaves strangely."

The little black panther understood what his master meant and rubbed her palm.

Before dawn the next day, Arnold was summoned by the maid to do some work. She conscientiously maintained the persona of a fleeing dancer, and did not show the slightest disdain when cleaning the toilet bowl.

When Ming Lanying got up after a full sleep, washed up, and had breakfast with Ning'er, Taiyi suddenly appeared.

"Princess Qi, Arnold is a staff member of the queen of a neighboring country. He has some skills. His purpose of staying in the palace is not pure."

Ning'er glanced at Ming Lanying in confusion. He spent all day yesterday in Mr. Zhao's yard learning to identify medicinal materials. He didn't know what happened.

Ming Lanying's movements were really meticulous!

"With such a big background? Is he so relieved to let him go to the house?"

"Princess, please don't worry. The secret guards have been keeping an eye on her. The prince only sent it to the princess for fun."

Ming Lanying chuckled, Ye Juelu was really considerate.

Dongxia was pregnant, and both He Bai and Shan Zhao went to the front line. Aunt Cai who followed them was too strict and boring. Ning'er was learning new things every day and had no time to play with her mother.

Dozens of drug stores are run by shopkeepers, and shopkeeper Li is also looking after big restaurants. Apart from occasionally writing letters to the Queen and Tang Ning to talk about fun things, she can only stare at a pile of ledgers. , there is nothing to do.

Just when Ming Lanying was feeling bored, Ye Juelu came back with something exciting, so she wasn't welcome.

"Okay, since this is a detailed work, let her send some news back. As for what the news is, I have the final say."

Taiyi nodded and disappeared into the shadows. Aunt Cai came in just in time to report Arnold's situation. There were only three of them in the dining room.

After Nanny Cai finished reporting Arnold's situation from morning to now, Ning'er raised her head and looked at Ming Lanying.

"Mother, is there a craftsman in the house?"

Ming Lan's eyes were filled with smiles, "Well, there's a new dancer in the house. She's from a neighboring country that we're fighting with. Is Ning'er scared?"

Ning'er shook his head. He had heard what Taiyi said and what Nanny Cai said just now. Knowing that this detailed work was in their control, he was not afraid at all.

Ming Lanying rubbed his little face, "Ning'er is great, don't worry, mother won't let this trick hurt anyone."

Ning'er smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, mother, Ning'er will keep this secret!"

Ming Lanying happily kissed his forehead, "Why is my baby so sensible?"

Arnold spent the whole morning washing Gong's bucket before it came to an end. The cold water made her hands turn red, her back was sore that she couldn't stand up, and her whole body stinked, as if she had been pickled.

The maid who was monitoring her covered her nose and stood far away, "Arnold, the princess asked you to come over after lunch."

Arnold smiled, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes, "Yes, this slave knows."

Arnold worked all night and all morning, busy but couldn't get any news. He was anxious about the situation of the war between the two countries, so he could only change his plan.

After hurriedly taking a bite of pickles and steamed buns, Arnold quickly went to wash up and change his clothes, and then followed the maid to the backyard garden.

There is no snow today, but the biting wind has not stopped and the sky is still overcast.

Ming Lanying asked people to put down the windshield around the pavilion. There were two charcoal pots burning in the pavilion, so it wouldn't be very cold.

It's different outside the pavilion. It's icy and snowy, and the wind is biting. No matter how much you wear, you'll shiver even if you stand in the wind.

Ming Lanying coaxed Ning'er to take a nap, but she couldn't sleep, so she took Nanny Cai and a few maids to huddle in the pavilion and watch Arnold dance to relieve her boredom.

Arnold glanced at his slightly thin shirt and skirt and gritted his teeth.

This time they are not in the same space, they are separated by some distance, and the bells on their feet have no effect.

Ming Lanying also asked two musicians to accompany her. Even if the musicians were sitting in the garden, they would have a screen and a charcoal basin. Their treatment was many times better than that of Arnold. Arnold was so angry that his teeth itched.

Ming Lanying smiled and waved her hand, indicating that she could start, "Since there was no matching music last time, I thought it was boring, so I called two musicians. Just tell them what song you want to dance, and they will play everything."

Arnold had no choice but to take out her music score and let them play it against each other, but even someone who was proficient in music could tell that this was a long-lost and captivating music score.

If he was exposed, he would lose more than he gained. Arnold could only choose a classic song from their country. The two musicians were indeed proficient in various songs. They picked up a tune and played it directly. Arnold gritted his teeth and danced in the cold wind. .

With the soundtrack, Ming Lanying was much more pleasing to the eye. This time, there was no interference from the sound of the bell, and the little black panther lay obediently on her lap to keep warm.

Ming Lanying watched it enthusiastically, but one song was not satisfying enough, so she simply asked Arnold to dance two more dances. It was a delicate dance anyway, so there was no need to feel bad.

I have to say that Arnold's professional ability is quite strong, and he dances really well.

Ming Lanying was so excited that Arnold danced in the cold wind all afternoon. It wasn't until snowflakes fell from the sky that Ming Lanying reluctantly let her go back to rest.

Wang Yuying covered her mouth and snickered, "The princess still has a way, her face has turned pale after dancing all afternoon, look at how charming she is to seduce the Lord!"

Ming Lanying stretched out, "I didn't mean to do it, but she dances really well, Yuyu, let the people who are watching relax a little tonight, let her jump around the house for a while, and see if she can fix it." What kind of flowers are there?"

"Yes."
