No, I was just a concubine, how did I become the queen?

Lin Mingyan said this in a teasing way, and the angry Dujuan was amused by her.

This smile was like a balloon being pricked by a needle and returning to its normal size.

"Huh? Are you not angry anymore?" Lin Mingyan stuffed a shrimp dumpling into her mouth and coaxed her.

Dujuan chewed and chewed, swallowed and then said: "This servant is not worthy of you."

"You were promoted by the Lady, yet you were assigned such a remote position."

"I'm just afraid of you..."

Are you favored?

At the beginning, I was young and inexperienced, and I thought that Fu Jin valued Ge Ge very much and treated her very well.

Now that I have grown up, I realize that Linfengju is the most remote and worst located of all the concubines' residences!

If it weren't for the fact that these princesses were so capable and could seduce their masters to come here every day, this place would have been overgrown with weeds!

Lin Mingyan was amused by her sincerity. "Whether you are in the east or the west, near or far, as long as you are not in my heart, you will be ignored the same."

People care about you so much that even if you live in the Himalayas, they will still come here without any hesitation.

For example, money, even if it rains knives from the sky, she will still go to earn it!

"Princess, you're right," Dujuan said flatteringly.

But she didn't think she was a bootlicker. She truly admired the princess.

Lin Mingyan joked with her for a few words, then got down to business: "Have you made any progress on the things you inquired about before?"

Pregnancy pills and amulets, these inexplicable things appeared, making her happy and worried.

She originally thought that this was a benefit for time travelers, with people everywhere.

But that day, I suddenly heard a system voice, which seemed to be talking about the host, mission target and so on.

It is certainly a good thing to have a system.

But she shouted for a long time but no one responded, instead she heard another woman's voice.

After listening to it several times, she finally realized that this system belonged to someone else!

It turned out that she got these two things as part of a random task of the system.

However, the system owner didn't complete it, but she completed it by accident and even got a reward!

I don’t know whether this luck is good or bad.

However, the most urgent task is to find out who is the time-traveling girl in the Fourth Master's backyard.

Dujuan knew the importance of this matter and replied solemnly, "Princess, I have followed your instructions and gone to the kitchen to inquire."

"Gege Li's taste hasn't changed. She likes expensive dishes and eats whatever is expensive."

"Song Gege never orders food from the kitchen. She always eats whatever comes with it, and the dishes are taken away just as they were served, as if she hadn't eaten them at all."

"Zhang is strange. She ate light food when she first came into the mansion, but for some reason she likes dishes with lots of oil and salt, and eats a lot."

"But recently it seems like he's back to normal and no longer pays for extra dishes."

"As for Wu and Yi, these two have not yet served in the bedchamber, and they are not even able to shake in the kitchen, and have never ordered meals."

As for the small kitchen in the main courtyard, there is definitely no way to find out.

Moreover, if you ask about Fu Jin's diet while she is pregnant, she might get stressed.

Lin Mingyan thought about it and felt that it was impossible for Fu Jin to have a system.

If she were the concubine and had the system, then she would have to complete the mission of making the pregnancy pill even if it meant tying up the Fourth Master.

There has been no change in the Li and Song families, so the most likely one is actually the Zhang family.

Her tastes have changed so much, it's like she's become a different person.

As for the Wu and Yi families, they are both suspects. We will see later.

"Okay, I understand," Lin Mingyan nodded.

Du Juan asked again: "Gege, now that we have figured this out, what should we do next?"

"Nothing, I'm just curious," Lin Mingyan couldn't talk about the system, so she made an excuse.

Dujuan had no doubts about it, it was just that the princess was too curious.

A while ago, I was curious about what the servant in the kitchen eats every day, so I asked her to tell me about spring, summer, autumn and winter.

Actually, what is there to say? It’s just radish and cabbage, or radish and green vegetables.

In fact, they all depend on the leftovers of their masters to survive. Those who don’t have a master or cannot get a seat next to a master can only eat vegetarian food.

In some places, not to mention the servants, even the masters may not be able to eat well.

For example, the Fourth Master is now sitting at the table, with a bowl of radishes and a bowl of cabbage on the table in front of him.

This is the lunch at the Ministry of Revenue, and we have been eating it for three consecutive days.

The fourth master had a lot of words in his mouth, but he couldn't say a word.

Because the Ministry of Revenue has no money.

He wanted money to buy food and supplies to send to the front line, but the Minister of Revenue said that there was not a penny left in the treasury!

Shit!

The Fourth Master was immediately scolded: "Do you think I can't read the account books? The national treasury still has a balance of 3,258,300 taels!"

"With so much silver, you're saying you can't allocate enough money to buy food and fodder for the Emperor?!"

"You are enriching yourself, occupying your position without doing anything, and deceiving the emperor!"

The Minister of Revenue took the lead in kneeling, and officials of all ranks behind him knelt on the ground.

It is said that when the emperor is angry, millions of people will die. This man is the emperor's son, and he is also very scary when he is angry.

In the past, the Fourth Master couldn't understand the account books, so they just fooled around a bit.

But they didn't expect that the Fourth Master couldn't understand it but he could learn it.

After only studying for half a month, he was already very proficient and could manage all the accounts in the Ministry of Revenue clearly.

The good days are coming to an end~

The Minister of Revenue said tremblingly, "I am... terrified!"

Fourth Master: How can you not be scared when you are short of such a huge sum of money?

"Don't admit your mistake to me, I only care about money!" The Fourth Master was furious, "Take out the silver!"

This silver is not in the national treasury at all. Where can he get it?

The Minister of Revenue could only kneel down and said with a stiff upper lip: "In reply to the Fourth Prince, there are only a little over two thousand taels left in the treasury, not this amount of silver."

If he really had more than three million taels, as the Minister of Revenue, would he still need to eat radishes and cabbages every day?

"Asshole!" The Fourth Master was so angry that his vision went dark. "The account book is right here, and you still dare to talk nonsense to me?!"

These corrupt officials!

They should all be dragged away and beheaded!

The great Qing Dynasty was ruined by these parasites and couldn't even pay for its military expenses!

Seeing that the officials would be punished if they didn't come out soon, the Minister of Revenue showed up.

The old man sighed and advised, "Oh, Fourth Prince, please don't get angry. There is indeed money in this account book."

"Where's the money?" The Fourth Master could get angry at a minor official, but the high-ranking officials of the court always had to give him face, so he asked while controlling his temper.

"The money is all here!" The Minister of Revenue took out a big box and handed it to him.

The Fourth Master frowned so hard that he could kill a mosquito, and took the box.

Ah.

Then why didn't you take out the money earlier?

He opened the box, but found nothing inside but the banknotes he had expected.

But a bunch of IOUs with different handwritings...?

"Is this the remaining three million taels?!" The Fourth Master's voice was as cold as if it came from the Forgetful River in hell.
