Lei Meiren is the most simple and direct: "Congratulations to the empress! Congratulations to the empress!"
Zhu Liangyuan and Wan Meiren hurriedly followed suit and congratulated each other, and their eyes were filled with joyful smiles.
Ye Fuxun:......
Can the three sisters please stop thinking wrongly? We will simply hold a celebration party.
"Mother, the sisters in the backyard haven't paid you a greeting for a long time. Many of them feel anxious. Would you like to summon the sisters to come and greet you?"
Ye Fuxun: She really just took over the job of hosting a celebration banquet.
Looking at these three people, it seems as if she has really been promoted.
"What kind of greetings are you asking for?" Ye Fuxun waved his hands repeatedly, "It's just that His Highness has accepted the emperor's order to hold a celebration banquet, and in the palace... I am the only one suitable to do this at present, so where are you all thinking?
"
Lei Mei, Zhu Liangyuan, and Wan Meiren looked at each other, and both smiled and said: "Yes, empress!"
Although the affairs of the Crown Princess have not been made public, there are still small rumors spreading around.
Not to mention that the three of them go in and out of Mingyue Palace from time to time and know the situation better than the concubines in the backyard.
The Crown Princess bribed Wen Po in order to frame the Emperor's heir - even they knew that this was a serious crime of beheading.
Although the murder attempt was unsuccessful, it would still be serious even if the thought came to mind.
The three of them had secretly hoped that His Highness would deal with the Crown Princess so that Concubine Ye could become the true concubine of the Prince's Mansion.
Since Your Highness has asked your Majesty to host the celebration banquet today, isn't that what he meant openly or secretly?
It's just that the matter has not been made public yet, so they naturally won't talk too much to avoid causing trouble to the empress.
"Your Majesty, we must make this celebration party a success!" Lei Mei said happily.
Ye Fuxun laughed: "That's right, let's discuss what to do together."
The four of them discussed the celebration banquet for nearly an hour, and finally the matter was almost finalized.
Afterwards, Ye Fuxun and the three of them had some refreshments and walked in the yard to eat, before asking Grandma Chang to call in several stewards in the house to speak.
The affairs of the palace have always been managed by the Crown Princess.
I haven't gone to Lanxi Palace to report to him for a long time, so things have been put on hold for a long time.
Now they arrived at Mingyue Palace, and many stewards stopped by to report the things that had been piled up for approval one by one.
Ye Fuxun listened attentively and asked about the specific situation in detail. Some questions were even asked about past handling methods before giving final instructions.
She was not too hasty, and occasionally introduced some of her personal ideas to let the stewards have their own thoughts.
Concubine Ye Fang was not a mistress who could be dealt with carelessly. Ye Fuxun saw everyone's expressions in his eyes and took care of everything. He also explained clearly the parts of the celebration banquet that required everyone's cooperation.
Only then did the stewards retreat.
"Mother, please drink a cup of warm water first." Xiaoyu brought the water and handed it to Ye Fuxun, worried, "You have been busy all morning, are you too tired?"
Ye Fuxun glanced at her and said with a smile: "It's just a matter of lip service, where do you get tired?
"But just now..."
Xiao Yu pursed her lips. Although she didn't understand the general affairs in the house, there were two or three stewards who had just made it clear that they were deliberately trying to embarrass her mother-in-law. She hated herself for not being able to help. Otherwise, she really wanted to refute them in person.
Keep the manager’s mouth shut!
"Empress, do you want to teach Xiaoyu?"
After listening to Ye Fulun's words, Xiaoyu almost raised her finger and swore, "Xiaoyu will definitely share your worries!"
Ye Fuxun happily rubbed Xiaoyu's chubby face: "Okay."
After getting up after lunch break, Ye Fuxun called Xiaoyu and Qiaoer to go to the study together.
After taking pen and ink and laying out the paper, Ye Fuxun drew a simple table on the paper thoughtfully, and then told the two of them how to organize the account book.
In fact, many ledger records are repeated every day.
"For example, the vegetables and meat purchased every day in the big kitchen," Ye Fuxun carefully explained to the two of them, "are listed one by one on the account book for inspection. Although it looks clear, it is actually very difficult to check."
She pointed to the paper, "We only need to write down the entries clearly here, and then use the date as a column, and write the quantity of that day in each cell. This way, it will be clear at a glance when making statistics on a monthly basis."
She spoke in a coherent and clear manner, and Xiaoyu and Qiaoer quickly understood.
"This method is so convenient."
Ye Fuxun smiled and pushed the account book in front of the two of them: "Just follow this method and reorganize the account book into categories."
"Yes, empress!"
Ye Fuxun smiled and picked up the account books from other departments, and continued to think about how to classify the account books of different departments.
The afternoon passed quickly.
When Ji Yannuo came back at night, he saw Ye Fuxun holding the account book next to the bed and looking at it. He couldn't help but feel distressed and took the account book over, hugged her and said, "I heard that you met a lot of managers today, and you are still in the study.
I’ve been sorting out the ledgers all afternoon, why are you still looking at them now?”
If he knew it would make Ah Xun so tired, he wouldn't be in a hurry to leave the management of the Prince's Mansion to Ah Xun.
Ye Fuxun smiled and shook his head, spreading out the ledger in Ji Yannuo's hand and showing it to him: "Ayan, look, this is the ledger I asked Xiaoyu and Qiaoer to rearrange. Is it clearer at a glance?"
"Besides, I just met with the manager for a while today, and I asked Xiaoyu and Qiaoer to sort out the accounts in the afternoon, so I'm not tired at all."
"Time flies much faster when you have something to do." It's also much more interesting.
Ji Yannuo looked at Ye Fuxun's face carefully and felt relieved when he saw that she did not look tired.
Then he moved his gaze to the account book. At this glance, his dark eyes became darker: "Ah Xun, why is this account book different from ordinary account books?"
"Of course it's different."
Ye Fuxun told Ji Yannuo the classification recording method, "In this way, not only can we save a lot of unnecessary paper, but it will also make it much easier to check the accounts."
Ji Yannuo quickly understood the key point, his eyes brightened slightly: "It is indeed an excellent method. Ah Xun, how did you come up with it?"
The method of keeping accounts has remained unchanged throughout the ages, and checking accounts has always been a tedious and error-prone task.
If Ah Xun's method is used for recording, it can reduce a lot of manpower and material resources after popularization, which is a great thing that benefits the court.
Ye Fuxun touched his nose: "I'm just lazy and my eyes are tired from reading, so I came up with this method."
Ji Yannuo held her face and kissed her: "My Ah Xun is really smart. I want to promote this method in the court, is it possible?"
"Of course." Ye Fuxun blinked, "You can use it as you like."
Two days later, it was the day of the celebration banquet at the Prince's Mansion.
