Mo Hanqing stared at the shadow on the screen for a long time, and finally the corners of his thin lips slowly curved: "Five taels."
What?
Only five taels?
Ye Qiqi was stunned, counting with his fingers for a while, and then asked Mo Hanqing without tears: "Then I have to withhold twenty months' monthly salary to be able to afford a piece of clothing from His Highness." robe?"
"No." Mo Hanqing sat in the bathtub and suddenly became in a good mood and said: "Just now, I said that the robe was worth a hundred taels. I didn't mean that it was only worth a hundred taels of silver. To be precise, that robe was worth a hundred taels." The robe is worth three hundred and fifty taels."
Three hundred and fifty taels!
Ye Qiqi froze.
Wouldn't that... wouldn't it mean that I would have to work for seventy months in vain to pay it off!
"And..." Mo Hanqing's voice paused slightly, and then he continued leisurely: "Three hundred and fifty taels is just the value of one outer robe. If I remember correctly, the king's middle coat just now , the inner garment was also shattered by you. Of course, the inner garment and inner garment are not as expensive as the outer robe, so you don’t need to worry."
"No...it's not as expensive as the robe. How much money..." Ye Qiqi had not yet recovered from the seventy months of bills when she heard such shocking news.
"Oh... If we add it all up, it's probably only one hundred and fifty taels of silver." Mo Hanqing's slender white fingers tapped lightly on the water, and immediately ripples spread out in circles.
Even though he was behind the screen and couldn't see Ye Qiqi's face, he could already feel her tearful mood from her tone.
Someone's mood instantly improves.
That middle-class garment is actually worth one hundred and fifty taels! !
Ye Qiqi was shocked.
So with just a slight exertion on her hand, five hundred taels of silver were shattered in an instant! !
Based on her monthly salary of five taels of silver, wouldn't she have to work for him for a hundred months in vain?
One hundred months is ten years! !
Ye Qiqi took a breath of air. She must have served as a guard at Prince Jing'an for ten years before leaving, right?
"You don't need to worry too much." The corners of Mo Hanqing's lips curved slightly, and his fingertips traced the clear and crystal clear water. He said in a calm voice: "It's not like I won't give you a monthly salary increase, and I won't let you. You won’t be able to pay off your debt in ten years.”
…
Ye Qiqi, however, seemed to have been struck by lightning, standing there without any reaction at all.
"Okay, I've finished my bath. Come and get some clean clothes." After Mo Hanqing got rid of the bad breath in his heart, he felt extremely comfortable all over his body. He said this slowly and leisurely. I forgot to warn her: "Remember to be careful when handling it, so as not to damage it again."
"Yes..." Ye Qiqi responded sadly, turned around and walked towards the room.
When Mo Hanqing changed into a clean robe and walked out from behind the screen, he saw Ye Qiqi's wrinkled, delicate and handsome face, standing pitifully aside.
"Ahem..." He coughed lightly, calling someone back from his thoughts.
"Your Highness..." Ye Qiqi raised his head and looked at him with a pair of clear eyes filled with sadness.
"It's getting late, and I'm going to bed." Mo Hanqing said in a cold voice with a bad light flashing in his eyes.
"Then my subordinate resigns."
