concubine poisonous concubine

Chapter 232
Over the years, Zhan Moyu also knew that the prince was looking for the hidden guard, but he did not expect to meet under such circumstances.

It seems that this time, what they want to kill is not the concubine mother, but his wife.

The mother and concubine have been in the palace for almost 20 years, and no one has done anything. Dudu and Xin Ruo met when they went out. When did his wife provoke the people in the palace and force them to kill?

Although this matter was clearly handed over to the prince for investigation, Zhan Moyu was also looking for it secretly.

It's just that the hidden guard who had been hiding for several years suddenly appeared and disappeared with just one shot. How easy is it to find out?

On this day, Xin Ruo went to the concubine's room to say hello as usual, the second wife and third wife were there, and Princess Bingxian was also there.

When the princess saw Xin Ruo coming, she waved her hand without waiting for Xin Ruo to salute, "Xin Ruo, come here quickly, you are always good at giving gifts, just in time to help your mother and concubine give advice."

Xin Ruo blinked her eyes when she heard this, and walked towards the princess, and she heard the princess say, "The imperial concubine's birthday will be in ten days, you can help the concubine mother to come up with ideas, what to give."

This is really embarrassing for Xin Ruo, and Xin Ruo doesn't know what the imperial concubine likes, so how can she know what to give as a gift.

Xin Ruo blinked and said, "Mother Concubine, whatever the imperial concubine empress likes, let's give it away."

The third wife nodded and said, "That's right, the imperial concubine has always been favored by the sage, and this time's birthday should not be sloppy. According to our master, the court has been discussing the ownership of the iron box every day in the past two days.

The imperial concubine is a very important person, in my opinion, the imperial concubine liked colored glaze back then, why don't I give colored glaze as a present? "

Xin Ruo nodded straightly when she heard that, grabbed Wangfei's hand, and shook it, "Mother, concubine, give Liuli, I'm afraid she knows where there is Liuli after listening to Third Aunt's words.

She is so anxious about the iron box, why not leave the preparation of the birthday gift to the third aunt.

With the virtuousness of the third aunt, I will be able to prepare a satisfactory birthday gift, and save you from worrying. "

The concubine heard a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, she gave Xin Ruo a look, and turned to look at the third wife, "Xin Ruo's proposal is just right, so I will trouble the third sibling."

The corner of the third wife's mouth twitched when she heard it, and her eyes could spit fire when she looked at Xin Ruo.

Seeing what the princess said, she twitched her lips, "I am also concerned about the palace. The iron box is left by my ancestors. How can anyone get it? Besides, I am not familiar with Banyuefang. How do I know where there is Liuli?" .”

Xin Ruo sighed regretfully upon hearing this, "Xin Ruo gave Liuli away after listening to the third aunt, thinking that the third aunt knew where to get it.

It turned out that the third aunt didn't know either, the mother and concubine's colored glaze was given by the husband, if it was given to the noble concubine, the husband might have smashed it.

This is really difficult, there is Liuli Banyuefang, but they are all priceless treasures.

If the third aunt is willing to pay for it, Xin Ruo will go and talk to Banyuefang. "

Xin Ruo blinked and looked at the third wife, she was nosy, she came here with her hands on the princess.

If the concubine hadn't bothered her, why would she wink at her, saying that what she gave was not something she could just talk about, she had to come up with something substantial, otherwise no one would care about her.

The third wife blushed from the choking, twisted her veil angrily, and said with a calm face.

"The third aunt has the heart but not the strength. You are so rich and powerful, and you gave away 2 taels of silver without blinking. It's better to make your third aunt cheaper than outsiders."

Xin Ruo was speechless, at first she still reached out to the princess for money, but now she simply asks her for it, Xin Ruo is so thick-skinned that she doesn't even know what to say.

"Third Aunt, it was donated to the poor people affected by the disaster. How can Third Aunt compare herself to them? Could it be that Third Aunt wants to live in that kind of homeless life?"

When Xin Ruo finished speaking, the second wife covered her mouth with a veil and smiled, and the third wife blushed from embarrassment.

The concubine couldn't help it anymore, and said with a smile in her voice, "Your third aunt is praising you for your generosity, well, let's not discuss this matter today, and you can help the concubine mother to think about it when you go back.

Concubine Mother has a bit of a headache today, you will stay later to help Concubine Mother look at the account books. After Mama Zhou left, these account books have been overwhelmed, and Concubine Mother can't read them alone. "

When Bingxian heard this, she frowned slightly, the princess wanted to teach Xin Ruo to be a housekeeper.

As for her, Bingxian County advocated looking at the princess with wide eyes, but the princess didn't look at her, so Princess Bingxian's face became a little gloomy, and she felt that the princess had changed a little in the past few days.

Not as gentle and patient as before, Princess Bingxian put down the teacup in her hand, "Concubine Mu, you are not feeling well, and Xin Ruo alone may not be enough to help you, so Bingxian can help you too. Before getting married, Concubine Mu also Taught me a lot."

The third wife raised her eyebrows when she heard this, the veil that had been tightened was loosened, and her complexion improved a lot.

Xin Ruo saw that when the princess asked her to help check the accounts, the faces of the second wife and the third wife changed, and they were much stricter than when she choked them. Xin Ruo felt that something was wrong.

Hearing that Princess Bingxian also suggested helping to read the accounts, she felt that there was a problem.

The concubine also frowned, she just asked Xin Ruo to help her check the accounts, why did everyone react so strongly.

Could it be... the concubine's eyes turned cold as she thought about it, "It's just right, concubine mother will separate the account books later, and one person will help concubine mother do some calculations."

Xin Ruo nodded, and Xinlian led Xin Ruo and Princess Bingxian to another room.

Because Princess Bingxian was also there, Xinlian divided the large pile of account books into two piles.

Xin Ruo's eyes trembled. There were dozens of books. Didn't the concubine read the accounts every day? Why did she accumulate so much? Xin Ruo looked at the account books and asked Xinlian, "Are all these accounts?"

Xinlian nodded, "These account books are usually taken care of by Zhou's mother, and the princess only looks through them. Zhou's mother has been away for a long time, and then..."

Xin Ruo was shocked when she heard that, the princess had handed over all the power of the palace to Mother Zhou.

She just took a look at herself, no wonder the expressions of the second and third wives changed just now when they heard that she wanted to check the accounts, and thinking about the many precious jewelry at Mother Zhou's place, she probably got something out of it.

Xin Ruo thought about it, so she sat down, didn't pick up a pen, just flipped through it, her brows were frowning, she didn't know what kind of frowning, Dong Mansion needs to repair the garden every season?
1000 taels at a time?There is also the cost of exotic flowers and plants, which is no less than 200 taels per season, and there are so many other weird items asking for money that I don’t know where to go.

Randomly flipping through it, Xin Ruo reckoned that the East Mansion alone would have stolen 6000 taels of silver from the concubine in just one year.

Xin Ruo glanced at the account book in her hand, and then went to Princess Bingxian.

Her complexion didn't change, she didn't even frown, Xin Ruo was puzzled, walked over, and smiled embarrassedly, "Mother concubine thinks too highly of Xin Ruo, Xin Ruo doesn't know accounts very well, can sister-in-law teach me? "

The corners of Bingxian's mouth curled slightly when she listened, she knew that Xin Ruo didn't really understand the accounts, she was a concubine before she got married, it's good that the mistress treats her seriously, why would she teach her these things.

Hearing what Xin Ruo said at this moment, she didn't have any doubts. After teaching Xin Ruo seriously for a while, it was reasonable for Xin Ruo to look at the accounts in her hand, but there were two copies of the same account.

Princess Bingxian was looking at the top one, and Xin Ruo was looking at the bottom one. I didn't expect Zhou's mother to make fake accounts. It seems that these accounts are for the princess to see.

She really did her best, Xin Ruo's mouth flickered coldly, if Zhou's mother hadn't been sent to Banyuefang to be imprisoned, she would have died countless times in the mansion.

Xin Ruo listened for a while, at the beginning Princess Bingxian was still serious about teaching, but later she was just fooling around.

Xin Ruo didn't want to listen any more, and yawned, "Sister-in-law, let's reconcile the accounts first. If Xin Ruo delays you, I'm afraid I don't know when I'll be able to take care of it. I'll learn from you later."

Princess Bingxian wanted to do this a long time ago, taught her for a long time, but didn't know a word to ask, so she opened her eyes and looked at her, nodding immediately.

Xin Ruo continued to get together, but didn't look at the East Mansion, and found out the accounts in Mrs. Fu's house.

Xin Ruo's eyes turned cold when she looked at it, she was not around all year round, but the money was sent to her yard every penny, and the amount was even bigger.

Xin Ruo was curious, what did she want so much money for? This month, 600 taels should be allocated to her in the yard, because Zhou's mother left, so it has been put on hold.

Xin Ruo turned over twice, then stretched out her arms and walked out. Princess Bingxian looked up at her, "Where are you going?"

Xin Ruo pursed her lips, her face was smeared red, "I'm so dizzy from looking at it, I'll go outside to get some fresh air, will you go?"

Princess Bingxian shook her head, she couldn't stand such a little bit of suffering, that's okay, no wonder she handed over all the affairs in her own yard to Mother Lin.

Seeing her shaking her head, Xin Ruo went out of the room by herself. The concubine was sipping tea. Seeing that Xin Ruo came out in only a quarter of an hour, she was a little surprised.

The second wife over there also had a smile at the corner of her mouth, she might not be able to stay because she couldn't understand, a look of contempt flashed in her eyes, and then she smiled, "Sister-in-law Wang should teach her some time, I'm afraid she can't understand. "

Xin Ruo nodded straight after hearing that, "Mother Concubine, Xin Ruo really didn't understand, she also helped manage the family in Yuan Mansion for a month before, but it is quite different from Wang Mansion.

For the second aunt's yard alone, the garden needs to be repaired every season, and 1000 taels of silver are spent. Although the Yuan Mansion is not as big as the Dong Mansion, it is not small, only 200 taels is enough, and it is only repaired once a year. "

Xin Ruo didn't know how much it would cost to repair in Da Furen's hands, but it only cost 200 taels in her hands.

The second wife couldn't sit still when she heard it, she wished she could cover Xin Ruo's mouth.

Xin Ruo didn't look at her, and continued, "There's Mrs. Fu's house, didn't she just come back, and there was no one living there before, but Xin Ruo looked at the account books and sent her more than 600 taels of silver every month. Woolen cloth.

I don't know what it is for, there is also the courtyard of the third aunt, and a viewing building is to be built, 2000 taels of silver.

Didn't Xin Ruo build it out of his own pocket last time? Why did Xi Mansion transfer money from the public to build it?The fourth aunt is going to build it too, but I'm afraid it's a little small, and only 200 taels of silver..."
