The traitorous boss travels through time: The princess is causing trouble again!
Chapter 24: The useless little dish
Zhan Jingchen was silent for a moment and then said, "I will go there in person."
Zhan Jingxuan looked over in surprise, and Tang Xiluo also turned to look at him.
"Brother, your rest period is not over yet..."
Zhan Jingchen waved his hand: "No problem."
Then he looked at Tang Xiluo: "Take good care of yourself in Beijing, I will try to come back as soon as possible."
Tang Xiluo looked him up and down. With his illness, he had to travel all the way. What if the poison took effect during the journey? He would have a hard time even meeting the bandits, so how could he expect to capture people?
"If you ask me, just be direct and simple and rough."
The two brothers turned to look at her, eagerly waiting to hear her good ideas.
Tang Xiluo coughed a few times uncomfortably: "To catch a thief, we must first catch the leader. We can just kill the dog official directly."
Zhan Jingxuan: “…”
Zhan Jingchen: "..."
Tang Xiluo couldn't stand the gazes of the two people, and had no choice but to speak again: "The dog officials are corrupt, why don't we just steal what they have embezzled and let them suffer in silence!"
Zhan Jingchen pondered for a moment, then raised his chin and said, "Continue."
Tang Xiluo curled his lips and said, "I'll go with you, and you'll know then."
Zhan Jingchen smiled dotingly. How many secrets does she have?
"Row."
Zhan Jingxuan blinked: "Sister-in-law, you go..." It’s not good for a girl to go, right?
Tang Xiluo waved his hand: "It's okay, I'll go out and see the scenery outside the capital, it's also nice."
Seeing that his brother had agreed, he could not continue to stop him.
Solving one problem brings another.
"In recent years, there have been wars on the borders, and most of the money in the national treasury has been used in the military camps. Chi County has also transported disaster relief money twice, but both times were robbed by bandits. The national treasury really can't take any more..."
Zhan Jingchen sighed: "In my private library..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Tang Xiluo: “No need!
What private vault? Now that they were husband and wife, what belonged to him was his? Could he just watch the money from the private vault being taken out?
Zhan Jingxuan also shook his head seriously: "Third brother, I can't take your private vault."
Zhan Jingchen couldn't help laughing when he saw the worried look on the little girl's face. She was indeed a money-grubber.
"Don't worry, I can support ten of you."
Tang Xiluo rolled his eyes at him and was speechless towards the emperor.
The palace is decorated with gold and jade, but the treasury can't even afford the money. Isn't this just pretending to be rich?
"Ahem, no need for silver, just pack two boxes of stones."
Zhan Jingchen immediately understood what she wanted to do and a proud smile appeared on his face. His wife was so smart and those noble ladies in the capital were far inferior to her.
Zhan Jingxuan also understood, but he was a little worried: "Will this work? If we are discovered, everyone will be in danger."
Tang Xiluo blinked and said, "If the emperor is really worried and the treasury can't provide money, then just take down the golden walls outside."
Zhan Jingxuan was stunned and looked at Tang Xiluo with wide eyes. The thief from a month ago had not been found yet.
Who would have thought of knocking down the golden wall? Now the emperor's sister-in-law actually thought of it, could she be the thief from last time! And last time, the emperor's sister-in-law happened to be called into the palace by the queen mother...
Zhan Jingchen held his forehead with his hand. How come his wife is sometimes smart and sometimes confused? Isn't she walking into a trap?
Tang Xiluo noticed Zhan Jingxuan's suspicious gaze and quickly explained: "I also heard about this from my father. Since it's left there and stolen by thieves, we might as well take it down and do something with it."
Zhan Jingxuan narrowed his eyes. This explanation seemed reasonable, but he still suspected that the emperor's sister-in-law was the thief from last time!
Zhan Jingchen said quickly: "No need, just pack two boxes of stones, Your Majesty, I will take my leave first."
Zhan Jingxuan waved his hand: "Okay, you guys just take a good rest these two days."
After leaving the palace, in the carriage.
Zhan Jingchen squinted at her and asked, "Where is the gold you seized last time?"
Tang Xiluo looked puzzled: "Your Majesty, what are you talking about? I don't understand."
The man was helpless: "Don't pretend, I know it's you, and the emperor also suspects you."
Tang Xiluo shrugged: "Let's talk about it after we find the evidence, otherwise don't even think about framing me."
Zhan Jingchen laughed angrily: "I am curious about how you did it?"
Tang Xiluo rolled her eyes at him and said, "I can't do that."
"Heh, just be tough."
After returning to the palace, Tang Xiluo couldn't wait to walk towards the Glazed Pavilion. It was still time for him to take a nap.
Suddenly, I was stopped by the man behind me.
"Wait, where are you going?"
Tang Xiluo frowned: "Your Majesty, can't you see? Of course I'm going back to the yard!"
The servants in the mansion were all terrified. The princess was so bold that she actually dared to speak to the prince in such a tone.
The few maids who had just arrived also complained in their hearts: They really don't know the rules and are so rude to the prince.
Zhan Jingchen didn't expect that she actually forgot what she promised him in the morning. It was really abominable! Does she have him in her heart? !
So he gritted his teeth and leaned close to her ear, saying in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Didn't you say you would write a prescription for me when you return home?"
Tang Xiluo suddenly realized: "Oh, right, right, then Your Majesty, please come to Liuli Pavilion to find me later."
Zhan Jingchen was in a good mood: "Yeah."
Several maids gnashed their teeth and said, "Shame on you! You're trying to seduce the prince in broad daylight!"
The housekeeper came up to Tang Xiluo only after seeing Zhan Jingchen leave.
"This old servant has met the princess."
Tang Xiluo glanced at him and said coldly: "Well, get up." Ever since she got married into the mansion, this housekeeper's attitude towards her has been a little arrogant.
She was too lazy to even look at such people.
Seeing that she was about to leave, the housekeeper hurriedly said, "Princess, the palace didn't have maids before. These six were bought into the palace recently. I'll arrange for them to serve you in the Glazed Pavilion, shall I?"
Tang Xiluo waved his hand: "No need, Liuli Pavilion only has one maid named Xiaoli, there is no need for so many."
She was about to leave when she was stopped by the housekeeper.
"My Lady Princess, the Glazed Pavilion is so spacious, it would be useless without some maids to do odd jobs! How can Miss Xiaoli handle it?"
Tang Xiluo sneered: "What the housekeeper means is that if you don't stay in Liuli Pavilion, these servants won't go to Liuli Pavilion to clean?"
"I noticed that there was no servant living in the prince's study, so how come someone is doing odd jobs there?"
The housekeeper knelt down immediately upon hearing this: "Princess, please calm down. I just thought it would be more convenient for you to have more maids to serve you."
At this time, several maids also knelt down hurriedly: "Princess, please leave us behind."
Tang Xiluo raised his eyebrows and smiled: "What if I don't stay?"
The butler lowered his head. He didn't expect that the princess was so ignorant.
"My lady, I am here to manage the palace under the order of the Empress Dowager. If you don't have a maid to serve you in the palace, and the Empress Dowager blames you..."
Is he using the Queen Mother to pressure me? What a pity. I don't like people threatening me. Zhan Jingchen is a prince, so it's ok, but how dare a mere housekeeper dare to do that?
"If the Queen Mother blames you, at most she will sentence you to death and then say that I am fooling around. What does the life and death of a servant like you have to do with me?"
The housekeeper was in disbelief, this...!!!
She is not even afraid of the Queen Mother! She is so cold-blooded and ruthless.
The maids had not expected that the princess could be so arrogant.
Seeing that he was speechless, Tang Xiluo continued, "By the way, the palace didn't have a mistress before, so my mother asked you to take charge of the palace. Now that I've married into the palace and become its mistress, it's natural for me to manage the palace."
The housekeeper was shocked. He didn't expect that she would seize power on the second day after entering the mansion!
"Princess, you have just entered the palace and there are many things you are not familiar with yet, or..."
Tang Xiluo interrupted sharply: "Or what? Or should I leave it to a servant like you to manage?"
The housekeeper gritted his teeth and said, "I want the princess to get familiar with the palace first."
Tang Xiluo sighed and said to Xiaoli beside him: "Go and call the prince over."
Xiaoli has wanted to go find the prince for a long time. This housekeeper is really too much.
"Yes."
After Xiaoli left, the butler was not too worried. After all, he was an elder in the palace, and even if he had no merits, he had worked hard. The prince would not punish him indiscriminately.
