Chapter 375
Rong Jiao raised her head proudly: "So don't underestimate the emperor. Although the concubines are not proficient in these things, they can understand them when they are seniors. The servants at the bottom rely on the master not to check carefully, so they will Such a daring act, think about it, this is the cost of the Empress Dowager's return, the concubine has already saved so much money, if there is no such cost as the Compassionate Ning Palace, wouldn't it be more?"

The renovation of the Compassionate Ning Palace cost a lot of money, and she personally watched it every day, so all the ledgers passed through her hands, and the money that was drawn out could be seen, and if something came back, there was no loss.

"It turns out that's the case. In other words, we have wasted more money to support others over the years."

Gao Yin really didn't expect that the people in the palace would be so courageous as to use axes under his nose.

"Your Majesty, the people in charge of the harem may have never checked the accounts, or they may have embezzled these accounts themselves, but Zeng is the real accountant, and the food and drink expenses are carefully planned, no matter the budget. The house is still the Ministry of Internal Affairs, as long as you buy something, you must make a list, ranging from antique utensils to small eggs and cabbage, you must list the price, and the concubines will also send people out to inquire about the prices outside, so as not to be fooled by others."

Rong Jiao blatantly sent people out to inquire about prices among the people, so the people in the palace were restrained a lot. After all, not everyone would dare to commit the crime of deceiving the emperor.

"So that's the case. It seems that you should have handed over all the power of the harem to you, so as to save those people from emptying the treasury."

The more Gao Yin thought about it, the more angry he became, but there was nothing he could do, the power was handed over by himself, and he couldn't blame others.

"Don't be angry, Your Majesty. Anyway, we have probably cleared the daily expenses in the palace now. We will follow this in the future, and it won't be too much. The concubine will personally check it out. I believe those people will not dare to mess around."

Rong Jiao's proud account book, although there are only a few of them, the savings are real silver.

"Well, the queen has worked hard."

"By the way, Your Majesty, and there is one more thing I want to tell His Majesty."

"Tell me, what else do you need?"

"The concubine thinks that the prime minister's grandson Zhuang Wanshen is a rare talent. If the emperor wants to take him into his own use, he will surely become even more powerful in the future. We can't let him drift away and become a pawn in other people's hands to deal with the emperor. That is the real truth." serious trouble."

Gao Yin was a little depressed at the beginning, but after listening to the queen's words, he understood that the queen didn't have any distracting thoughts about that person.

"Rong Jiao, Zhuang Wanshen has always coveted you, and I was on guard against this, so I didn't dare to reuse him. If you bring him up early, do you think he will have second thoughts about you? "

Gao Yin said that he was worried about such things, so he felt that he should be more cautious.

"The emperor is right, and the concubine also thinks what you said is right, but we can't just look at some things on the surface. Whether Zhuang Wanshen has other thoughts about the concubine is still open to question, but the concubine is a little bit crooked towards her. I don't have any thoughts, but I am very sincere to the emperor, and I think about the emperor in everything."

She didn't want to explain everything that should be said clearly because there were still some conflicts between that person and the emperor.

"I understand what you said. Anyway, as long as you can be happy, I will listen to you no matter what."

Gao Yin knew that no matter what other people thought, the queen would always have a clear conscience, if not, she would not dare to say such big things in front of her.

"Rong Jiao, do you know anything about Jinxiu Palace?" Gao Yin asked tentatively.

"Is it about the Regent?"

"So you already know!"

"No, there are no secrets in the palace. Of course, people will see the regent coming out of the Fairview Palace, and naturally it will spread in the palace, but we don't know what the regent did in the Fairview Palace. , and you can’t guess blindly, you can only investigate slowly.”

When Rong Jiao said this, she frowned slightly.

"Your Majesty, do you think there are other hidden secrets in this matter?"

She always felt that some things were like playing house, everyone was an adult, no matter what, there should be a sense of proportion in doing things, right?
"Rong Jiao, this is what I want to remind you. The fact that the Prince Regent can enter and leave the Fairview Palace means that they have reached a consensus. What Xie Jinshi wants to do is to marry you instead. I am afraid that the Prince Regent will be able to win over you to fight against you." , so this matter is not a small matter for you, you should be more cautious in the future, and you can't be caught by others, understand?"

Rong Jiao didn't expect that even the emperor reminded herself like this, so it can be seen that this matter is not trivial.

"Your majesty, there is one thing that I don't understand. Could it be that I am a queen who is very incompetent? Why does everyone want to pull me down from that position? It's really frustrating."

She complained in front of the emperor just because she thought the emperor would understand her.

Gao Yin couldn't help but smiled and shook his head: "Fool! May I ask, which woman in the world doesn't want to be a queen? I want you to be careful, because I'm afraid that others will have ulterior motives for you and use all kinds of means to hurt you. So sitting on the Queen's position does not mean you are safe, you have to have the means to protect yourself."

Rong Jiao: ...

"Thank you, my majesty, for reminding me that from now on, no matter who it is, as long as they don't come to provoke my concubine, then I won't care about others. But anyone who comes to make trouble with my concubine, you can't blame me for being rude."

Rong Jiao gritted her teeth, it seemed that she, the queen, really couldn't sit still.

"Okay, okay, Chinese New Year is coming soon, it's extremely cold outside, if you don't have anything important to do, wait for me to find you, don't need to go to these small things again, be careful not to freeze yourself."

Rong Jiao nodded: "I would like to thank the emperor for your concern. The winter in the palace is indeed much colder than in the palace, but I don't feel cold when the emperor is with me."

Like others, she also wanted to act like a baby, but it made the emperor laugh even more.

"Rong Jiao, I will never forget what you were like before, but I like you better now."

What Gao Yin said confuses her, it's more like a basin of cold water poured over her head.

Pick up the things you brought, turn around and leave.

"Rong Jiao, go back and have a good rest and take care of your body."

The only thing Gao Yin has to do now is to watch the queen recuperate her body, and after giving birth to a child, the position of queen can be regarded as secure.

Those who returned to Jingyang Palace were also thinking about what the emperor said.

"Fu Xin go and bring Qi Ming over early, I want to see how his medical skills are."

"This... Your Majesty, he is just a small medical officer, and I'm afraid he can't take care of the empress's body by himself."

Fu Xin was a little worried that it would be a bit crazy for someone who was not skilled enough to take the Queen's pulse!

"It doesn't matter. Qi Ming has been taking care of medicinal materials for two years. He hasn't eaten pork, haven't he seen pigs run away?"
