After rebirth, His Highness Xinshu was pampered by me.

Chapter 464 Punishment

Lin Fu went back and told Jinse about the situation.

Jinse nodded after hearing this, only instructing Lin Fu to pay more attention to similar matters in the future, and then simply deducted a month's wages from the servant guarding the back gate.

Lin Fu had no objection to this.

However, Lin Fu still reported the matter to Lin Yi.

Lin Yi knew this, and he certainly wouldn't hide it from the Twelfth Prince.

Upon hearing this, the twelfth prince frowned.

In the past, he had little interaction with Chalan in the palace. He only knew about her because Jinse mentioned her from time to time.

Originally, the twelfth prince didn't have any good feelings towards him, but he didn't have any bad feelings either.

However, after having someone investigate and learning about Cha Lan's relationship with the Prince of Ankang's heir, the Twelfth Prince developed a dislike for Cha Lan.

Well, you could say that he disliked anyone who was associated with Empress Li.

I dislike these people hanging around Jinse Shen even more.

There's a word that means "having ill intentions."

In the eyes of the Twelfth Prince, everyone who appeared before Jinse had ill intentions.

Tea Blue is no exception.

At this moment, they learned that Cha Lan had secretly entered the Twelfth Prince's residence and had said some inappropriate things to Jin Se...

"Who's guarding the back door? Acting so carelessly! You should deal with this situation!"

He has no way to deal with Cha Lan's situation for the time being.

However, he still had the right to deal with the servants in his own household.

Lin Yi naturally had no objection to the Twelfth Prince's instructions, but after hesitating for a moment, he still advised, "Your Highness, please don't be angry. That servant is easy to deal with. However, Your Highness doesn't necessarily need to punish him now..." He was just a gatekeeper, and one who guarded the back gate at that; he was really no important person.

If you don't like something, just send it away or deal with it directly; it's not a big deal.

only……

The twelfth prince frowned, looking at Lin Yi with a furrowed brow: "What do you want to say?"

Seeing that the twelfth prince was not happy, Lin Yi quickly explained, "Your Highness, today Miss Jinse had Lin Fu inquire about this matter and fined that servant a month's allowance."

Lin Yi glanced at the twelfth prince as he spoke.

Seeing that the twelfth prince's expression had softened a bit, he continued, "Your Highness's decision to punish that servant is not a big deal. However, since Miss Jinse just punished him, Your Highness's decision to punish him again makes it seem like Miss Jinse's handling of the matter is inappropriate and may damage Miss Jinse's prestige in the mansion."

After all, he is the steward of the Twelfth Prince's residence. Without his authority, how can he stand firm when handling matters?
What you said makes some sense.

The twelfth prince thought for a moment, and finally just instructed: "Since we can't punish him directly, then think of a way to deal with him secretly!"

In short, such a dull-witted and greedy person should not be kept in the house as a gatekeeper.

Lin Yi didn't say anything more this time, and just hurriedly replied, "Yes."

This is nothing serious, it can be dealt with easily.

He should indeed inquire where this servant came from. If he was brought from the palace, that would be understandable, but if he was one of the people sent by Penglai Pavilion before…

Then he'll have to have a serious talk with the manager of Penglai Pavilion.

That day, when the twelfth prince had dinner with Jinse, he hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't help but ask first.

"I heard someone came to visit you today?"

"Yes, it's Cha Lan, the one who used to work with me in the Imperial Tea Room."

Jinse was not surprised that the twelfth prince would know about this, nor did she intend to hide it.
