But what Qian Ruoyu is most worried about is not this matter, but what Li Zhiyi said about Chu Mobai's plan to reduce expenses.
After all, Chu Mobai had never told him about this matter, and Qian Ruoyu didn't understand it at all. Even facing Li Zhiyi, she couldn't go to Chu Mobai at this time.
Presumably, that big pig's trotter will not tell him about this matter, he still doesn't want to let himself touch the affairs of his palace.
Therefore, if Qian Ruoyu wanted to know, he could only start with Li Zhiyi in front of him and get the words from Li Zhiyi's mouth.
"When did the prince tell you that he was going to reduce expenses? As far as I know, the prince's palace still has plenty of money!"
The big pig's hooves spend money, but they don't care. How could they suddenly cut back on expenses?
Besides, Li Zhiyi would really be sorry if he didn't dig a hole for her with this chicken feather order.
After hearing what Qian Ruoyu said, Li Zhiyi sneered.
Sure enough, I was fooled.
Li Zhiyi said disdainfully.
"That was all in the past, but it is different now. There may be a war on the front line, so I moved more than a dozen boxes of silver from the palace early this morning. It looks like there should be seven or eight thousand taels of silver!"
"In addition to moving so much silver, I also moved some gold and silver jewelry out. Haha, as far as I know, the gold and silver jewelry and rouge and gouache that someone brought as a dowry seemed to have been taken out too!"
When he said these words, Li Zhiyi's face was filled with ridicule.
After all, for a girl, the most important thing is naturally the gold and silver jewelry and rouge and gouache brought by the dowry. These things are probably what girls miss the most.
However, after Qian Ruoyu heard this sentence, his face showed joy!
After all, those rouge and gouache have been replaced by the cheapest ones. Even if they are sold, they won't make much money.
However, Qian Ruoyu felt a little cold in her heart, because she did not expect that Chu Mobai would take out all her dowry items, which were obviously for sale.
Even so, Qian Ruoyu could only barely take this matter seriously.
"Oh, just take it away. Since the prince is short of money, of course I, the wife, have to give him everything I have. Even if he wants to sell my yard, I don't care."
"But some people don't know if they have the courage!"
Suddenly being attacked by Qian Ruoyu, Li Zhiyi was frightened and took a step back again.
But Li Zhiyi then said.
"Whatever you say... Anyway, there is not much money in the palace now, and you have invited these four maids. I will see how you will explain this matter to the prince then!"
When Li Zhiyi said this, there was an arrogant expression on her face.
She didn't notice at all that there seemed to be more people than Qian Ruoyu in her Zhiyi Pavilion.
Therefore, Qian Ruoyu said calmly at this time.
"If you say that, you mean that there are enough people here, so it will be a waste of expenses and affect the palace, right?"
Li Zhiyi thought for a moment, fearing that Qian Ruoyu's words were deceiving her. After thinking about it, she nodded immediately.
"That's right, otherwise."
"Every extra person means one more person's salary and one more expense in the palace. Isn't this a waste? What's more, your place is so brand-new now, so I'm afraid it doesn't need so many people!"
"Besides, your maid Yan'er is so hard-working and capable, I believe she can do these things by herself."
After hearing these words, Qian Ruoyu just said calmly.
"Are you done?"
Li Zhiyi thought for a while and nodded.
"So what if it's over!"
Qian Ruoyu was then ready to counterattack.
"Since you said I have a lot of people, let me count for you how many people there are in my courtyard. Adding Yan'er, myself, and these four little girls, there are six people in total."
"What about your Zhiyi Pavilion?"
Suddenly Qian Ruoyu said this, Li Zhiyi took a step back again, because at this moment she suddenly remembered that her Zhiyi Pavilion was also a human being.
"Your Zhiyi Pavilion, including you, your Dan'er, two old ladies, and those maids, I'm afraid the number of people is already quite large. Plus those people who came over temporarily to help you cut flowers, what can I say?
Are there more than ten people in your yard?"
Li Zhiyi took another step back.
But this time it was Qian Ruoyu's turn to be aggressive.
Qian Ruoyu said further.
"Forget it besides that, there are so many people in your yard, and each person counts as an expense, so you have at least twice as much expense, right?"
"And I heard that your dowry gift is quite large. When you moved into the palace, the prince already gave you a sum of money. You probably haven't spent that money yet, right?"
"Since it's time for the palace to reduce its expenses, you should spend some money to show your concern for the prince and the palace. How about it? Do you have the courage?"
Qian Ruoyu's series of words suddenly frightened Li Zhiyi, and she was speechless for a moment.
After all, this matter was really too terrifying for her.
If you listen to Qian Ruoyu and sell your own silver and some gold and silver jewelry, you may indeed be able to get Chu Mobai's appreciation, but so what?
Once Bianjiang really goes to war, he will really be spending money like water. I am afraid it is not certain when Chu Mobai will get this money back.
Moreover, after the war, we must recuperate and recuperate. Let alone getting the money, I'm afraid I won't even be able to see the shadow.
Thinking of these things makes Li Zhiyi even more frightened. Those are her real gold and silver.
Li Zhiyi hesitated and was speechless for a moment.
Dan'er behind her immediately spoke up.
"Empress, what do you mean by this? Isn't this a deliberate attempt to change the subject!"
"Are the new people you recruited this time the same as those who were in our palace before? What's more, I heard that there seem to be some people coming from the kitchen. Didn't you recruit those people in the kitchen?"
"And the old man in the past was originally from the palace. Besides, those maids who came to our yard to help with weeding and cutting flowers were not specially invited by us!"
"Those people can only be regarded as maids in the palace. As for their stay, the prince has the final say. In our Zhiyi Pavilion, there are only two or two of us and me. You have six people here.
of!"
What a reversal of right and wrong!
Qian Ruoyu couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
It seems that this little girl Dan'er still has some tricks and class in the film.
After Dan'er finished speaking, Li Zhiyi immediately calmed down and patted Dan'er.
"That's right! Dan'er is right, that's what I just meant!"
