Huayan slept until dawn the next day. On the first night of living in the East Palace, she didn't even eat dinner.
Wake up refreshed after a good night's sleep.
Hearing the sound of her getting up in the room, Qiuyue walked in first, and then more than ten people who were waiting on her filed in.
Hua Yan can be regarded as having experienced the ostentation of yesterday, today she doesn't want them to wait for two hours to wash and eat, just about to speak, her eyes glanced at the outer courtyard of the bead curtain, and there seemed to be a group of people standing in the dark, through the gap of the bead curtain, the leader The person standing was Lai Fu, the chief steward of the Eastern Palace. She was stunned for a moment, and asked in surprise, "How did Steward Fu bring so many people outside? What happened?"
Qiuyue glanced out, and whispered, "It's Steward Fu, I heard that he brought the people from the house to visit you at the order of the crown prince." After finishing speaking, she added, "Everyone will come here before dawn." Alright, I've been waiting outside for an hour."
"Yeah..." Huayan was startled, and looked out at the sky. Although she slept soundly yesterday and didn't eat dinner, she didn't wake up too late, at least the sun hasn't come out yet. She frowned, "Why did you come so early?"
Qiuyue shook her head, indicating that she didn't know either, could this be the rule of the East Palace
Huayan looked outside again in puzzlement, and said directly to Nanny Fang who was the leader, "Just clean it up, I don't like to be tedious and verbose, from now on it will be as ostentatious as yesterday, if it's not necessary, don't use it. "
Nanny Fang respectfully replied, without further ado, she directed the maidservants to clean up Huayan after two or three cups of tea.
The appearance is snow-skinned and beautiful, and the face is absolutely beautiful. The long blue silk brocade skirt drags the tail, and a few campanulas are embroidered on the skirt. In addition, the figure is slender. It looks like an ink painting of the West Lake from a distance, and looks like the bank of the Qujiang River when viewed from a distance. The jade lotus is in full bloom. The end is beautiful and slim, graceful and graceful, which makes people unable to move their eyes away.
After dressing properly, all the waiters in the room fell silent, and even Nanny Fang showed surprise in her eyes, thinking that she thought that Ms. Zhao in Zhao Zaifu's mansion was the most beautiful woman in Southern Chu. The Crown Princess is truly upright and beautiful. If she is dressed up, it is really unimaginable.
As she thought about it, she saw that Huayan was not moving like an ordinary daughter's house. As soon as everyone finished tidying up, she walked out of the back room quickly, opened the curtain mercilessly, and opened it under the bead curtain. Amidst the crisp tinkling of the ding dong, she had already arrived at the door of the outer hall, and looked at the hundreds of servants of the Eastern Palace standing in the dark outside the courtyard, all standing respectfully like wooden posts, without making a sound, facing each other. The person in front raised his eyebrows, "Butler Fu, what are you doing?"
Although Steward Fu had waited for Huayan with someone for more than an hour, there was no impatient expression on his face. When he saw her come out to ask, there was a smile on his face. This slave is ordered by His Highness to bring all the people in the mansion to visit you, please take a look at all these people."
Huayan frowned, looked around, everyone bowed their heads respectfully, she smiled, and said calmly, "Your Highness is too polite."
The smile on Steward Fu's face did not change when he heard the words, but he bent down a little lower and his voice became more respectful, "His Highness also ordered the old slave to bring you all the accounts of the mansion. Everything should be decided by you, the Crown Princess." After he finished speaking, he waved his hand, and more than a dozen people came forward with neatly folded stacks of ledgers, saluted respectfully, and then stood aside.
Huayan's face suddenly changed, and she said in surprise, "Say what again."
Butler Fu didn't dare to think about the meaning behind Huayan's shocking question, so he hurriedly said it again.
This time, Huayan heard it clearly, and after hearing it clearly, she was almost out of breath, staring at the dark crowd and the piles of ledgers held in her hands, her eyes could almost see all of them. After a fire burned it cleanly, his chest heaved for a moment before his voice came out from between his teeth, "I'm not a princess yet, did your prince get kicked in the head by something?"
When Housekeeper Fu heard her words, he felt a chill immediately.
The wind blew, and my legs trembled slightly, before I managed to stand still, not daring to answer the words, and immediately said, "You are the crown princess appointed by His Highness, and the mistress of the Eastern Palace. Although you have not yet married His Highness, this It's a matter of time, and it will never change. The old slave and everyone in the East Palace have long obeyed His Highness's instructions. Since the day the Empress Dowager bestowed the marriage a year ago, they have respected the Crown Princess as their mother. Now the mistress lives Come in and be the master."
Huayan almost didn't come up in one breath, she stared at Laifu with a bit of sternness in her eyes.
Even though Laifu was used to the prince's cold eyes when he was angry, but now he couldn't stand the princess's naked eyes that wanted to kill people, so he knelt on the ground, lowered his head, and said cautiously, " Although the affairs of the Eastern Palace are complicated, this old slave will definitely assist the Crown Princess with all the stewards of the Eastern Palace, please rest assured." After speaking, he raised his head, seeing that Huayan's face was even worse, he quickly changed his words and said, "Our Eastern Palace's staff may not be as good There are a few hundred people, but compared to this grand mansion of the noble family in Beijing, it is considered small, although it looks like there are many accounts, but there are only a few categories in charge, so it is not difficult to manage."
The chilly wind above his head wet his clothes, and he couldn't speak anymore.
When he accepted the job yesterday, he felt that it might not be a good job, but His Highness told him that he didn't dare to comment, so he arranged it last night, and he was busy for most of the night, so that everyone today must not make mistakes , but he didn't expect it to be harder than he imagined now. He hadn't said a few words just now. The blunt knife on the head chops like meat.
Thinking that he lived a long time, he first served the Queen, and then His Highness the Crown Prince followed him after he was born. He has experienced a lot of things, but now, he feels that he really can't stand it.
There was a full cup of tea time, and he didn't dare to breathe anymore. Even when he knelt down, all the people behind him knelt silently. Some even put their heads on the ground.
There was no words, just the gloomy May frosty breath, which almost froze the people in this yard to death.
It was still Qiuyue who couldn't see it, walked up to Huayan, tugged at her sleeve, and called out in a low voice, "Miss."
God is pitiful, her young lady never gets angry easily, and she is never easily angered by others. It was the first time when the Empress Dowager gave the marriage order to Lin'an Huadu that she got angry for the first time, and today is the second time.
Now that the aura is in full swing, even she can hardly stand up, it can be seen that she is really ruthless by His Highness the Crown Prince's actions.
She didn't expect that when she just arrived at the Prince's mansion, the young lady had only slept comfortably all night, and she hadn't thought about how to play, so His Royal Highness the Prince gave her such a big surprise.
She had just entered the East Palace and was unfamiliar with everything, so all the servants in charge and all the power over the house were brought in front of her. This was a thick iron rope that tied her up, which meant to tell her that the position of the Mistress of the Eastern Palace was not only secure, it was like a nail, and no one could pry it off.
Huayan heard Qiuyue whispering, and slowly looked away from Butler Fu.
The mountains and seas pressing on Steward Fu's head receded in an instant, and he breathed a sigh of relief, grateful to the dozens of generations of Qiuyue's ancestors, softly raised his arms, and secretly wiped the huge beads of sweat on his forehead. I thought to myself, no wonder last year, His Highness spent half of his energy on dealing with the incident caused by the Crown Princess.
He secretly rejoiced that he had always obeyed His Highness's orders, was loyal to His Highness's arrangements, and listened to His Highness's wishes. Since the Crown Princess entered the mansion, he had not dared to neglect him in the slightest. Otherwise, he, the big housekeeper, might not even have a place in the mass grave after his death. place.
Huayan looked at the frightened butler of the Eastern Palace, and the servants who were frightened into mud, but even so, no one uttered a word in the dark crowd for a long time, she suddenly faded from her anger, and chuckled He said, "His Royal Highness, it is really unusual. The people in the East Palace are all impressive."
