Does this maid of the Tao family think that all the officials in the court are smart?
How much money did the emperor approve for a palace as big as Taowu Palace? The residences of the ministers, including the wing rooms and gardens, may not be as big as Taowu Palace.
Moreover, Taowu Hall was demolished and rebuilt, not renovated.
This means that it is just decoration, the place is small, the effort is small, and the price is higher!
It's not just high, it's ridiculously high, which is comparable to that of later generations of developers.
Chu Qing always felt that the "Tao Yi" in front of him was too whimsical. The big boss in the court was an official, not a big head, so how could he be slaughtered like this.
"Sister, are you overthinking it? Are officials in Beijing so stupid?"
Tao Ruolin smiled sweetly: "If you don't believe me, it's useless no matter what I say. If you believe me, you might as well give it a try, but don't accept less money and regret it later."
"It's not a matter of believing it or not. The price quoted is too high. Decorate a house and start with Qian Guan."
Tao Ruolin glanced at Chu Qing slightly, her expression was extremely incomprehensible, as if she were looking at a mountain boy who had never seen the world.
"Master Chu, do you think thousands of strings are a lot?"
Chu Qing shrugged and began to pretend again: "It's not too much."
Tao Ruolin smiled slightly: "Then it's settled. If you want less, the Tao family's efforts will not be in vain."
Chu Qing opened his mouth, wanting to say that if he didn't lower the price, we could settle the bill 50-50. He didn't know where Tao Ruolin got her confidence, and he didn't know that it was Tao Ruolin who was too "arrogant" but that he was ignorant.
Not to mention anything else, what is an official? If you are an official, you should be an official. When you go out to chat on weekdays, you will search for everyone. You are afraid that others will know that you are rich. If you renovate a house, you will spend thousands of dollars, and
The character design doesn’t match either.
"Okay." Tao Yi sat down on the stool, propped his chin and looked at Chu Qing and said, "Now that we've talked about the important things, let's talk about other things."
"other things."
"Well, my name is Tao Yi."
Chu Qing nodded absently: "I know, your name is Tao Yi."
"Wen Bang, Tao Yi."
"Yes." Chu Qing glanced sideways, looked Tao Ruolin up and down, and said with a smile: "I didn't realize that Tao Yi, the talented man who shocked the imperial sergeant, turned out to be a woman."
"Accident?"
Chu Qing said nothing.
There was nothing surprising about this. Not to mention a woman writing a few poems, he had never heard of a woman fucking an emperor.
Tao Yi tilted his head and asked with a smile: "Don't you ask, why did you attract the guards outside the palace because of me and almost hurt you?"
Chu Qing curled his lips.
Originally, he had complaints, but he didn't bother to care about it. The other party was a woman, so he could go up and fuck her. It was okay for him to be a man, so he punched her to make the other party remember.
Then I thought about it, the other party was a woman, and she was from the Tao family. This kind of woman who likes to make trouble doesn't need to be taught a lesson. Sooner or later she will kill herself, so why bother getting angry with a maid.
Looking back now, Chu Qing felt that his judgment was accurate.
This girl is indeed surprisingly courageous. It turns out that it wasn't because she didn't take the son of a minister seriously, but because she didn't take everyone else seriously. She dared to use the officials in the court as fat sheep.
.
However, Chu Qing admired Tao Ruolin's other trait, which was that she was obsessed with money. She bluntly said that she liked money.
It's not like some hypocrites who say they don't like money, but in the end, not only will the meal be reported to the public account, but they will also be packaged, and even if they are packaged, they will receive a kickback before leaving.
Chu Qing has always felt that the ancients were very contradictory, especially scholars.
He remembered that he had read an allusion about a scholar and a filial son. His mother was so sick that she couldn't get out of bed, but he had no money to treat her illness. The strangest thing was that he didn't accept the money given by his relatives who were merchants.
Chu Qing couldn't tell whether this person was filial or filial. He said he was a filial son who didn't need money to be filial but relied on love to generate electricity?
There's nothing wrong with liking money, and there's no need to open and shut your mouth while looking extremely bored.
Regarding this point, Chu Qing still admired Tao Ruolin's attitude and felt that the two of them had something in common.
"Let the past pass, let the past follow the wind, follow the wind, follow the wind."
Chu Qing shrugged: "But I have to agree that if we cooperate in the future, we have to be open-minded and open-minded. Do you understand?"
Tao Ruolin spat: "That's called being honest with each other!"
"Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, hehe." Chu Qing sneered.
"Is it a slip of the tongue?" Tao Ruolin said angrily: "I have been on the essay list for so long, but you replaced me. You are so talented, how can you make a slip of the tongue?"
When this matter was mentioned, Tao Ruolin suddenly became interested and her big eyes were bright: "Then do you know why I deliberately caused trouble for you outside the palace?"
"I know roughly."
"Really?"
"Oh, woman." Chu Qing hugged his arms and said in a deep voice: "When you see an outstanding man, you hope to attract his attention."
"No, it's because you are not a good person."
Chu Qing: "..."
Tao Ruolin stretched out her delicate jade fingers and counted one after another: "In Bei City, people were drunk, riding horses through the market, trampling on crops, getting drunk and hurting people, and insulting the people..."
Chu Qing frowned: "Did you do it on purpose? Did you harm me on purpose?!"
"Yes, don't tell me anymore. I hate you. You always bully the people."
Chu Qing's face looked gloomy and uncertain.
Before, he thought that the other party was just making trouble and watching the excitement without fear of big trouble, but when the other party said this, he actually did it on purpose!
After thinking about it, Chu Qing was no longer angry.
Just like what I did before, don't say that everyone wants to kill him. When I went to Bei City, basically everyone wanted to stab him.
"Why are you staring at me?" Tao Ruolin smiled confidently: "This is the Tao family village. If you are mean to me, I will scream."
Chu Qing finally sighed.
I used to be quite inhuman, but I couldn't explain it.
Thinking of this, Chu Qing felt a little strange: "But what does it have to do with you? You are Tsukino Rabbit."
"Who is Tsukino Usagi?"
"Little master in dressing up, this is not important. What is important is that you are a maid of the Tao family. What good does it do to you to do such a thing? If I am crippled in the palace, the unruly people in Zhuangzi will do it."
There is no way to get paid."
"You are the unruly person. I won't beat you. I will just scare you at most." Tao Ruolin smiled slightly: "You were protecting your nursing home that day. I thought you were putting on a show, so I followed you the next day.
When the guards go to find Eunuch Sun, I know I won't beat you."
Chu Qing looked suspicious: "How do you know?"
"The eldest young master said that the eldest young master of the Hiron family, Hirugao Chi, didn't know anything about poetry and prose. After being praised by the emperor, he happily accepted it. After the emperor knew that there was a misunderstanding, he couldn't show off his face because of his shame. Sun An was a close servant of the emperor and entered the palace.
, Sun An will not punish you, he will definitely punish Hong Gaozhi."
Chu Qing was dubious: "Really? What if you didn't go to Sun An and just gave me a beating in the palace?"
"Then I will ask Uncle Wu to identify himself and say that we are members of the Tao family. For the sake of the master, the guards will not embarrass you."
Chu Qing stared at Tao Ruolin, trying to tell whether this girl was deceiving him.
After watching for a long time, Chu Qing found helplessly that he couldn't see through the other person.
To be precise, Chu Qing didn't see through anyone, except Fu San.
Although he couldn't see through it, he knew that the girl in front of him was definitely not simple. Just from being able to represent the eldest daughter of the Tao family in "business negotiations" with him, he could tell some clues. Her right to speak in the Tao family must be not low, and
He pays great attention to the affairs in the capital. In addition, he is Tao Yi, a talented man who outdoes the scholars in the capital.
"I usually stay away from women with secrets." Chu Qing shrugged: "I believe you for now."
"You're not simple either." Tao Ruolin looked at Chu Qing with a smile but not a smile: "You also have many secrets, right."
Chu Qing's expression changed slightly: "No."
"No, you do."
"I don't."
"You do." Tao Ruolin said with a smile: "Why did the dandy from Bei City change his temper? He knew how to tolerate it and sympathized with the people. He seemed to have become a different person, didn't he?"
Chu Qing's heart skipped a beat.
Tao Ruolin said quietly: "Mr. Chu, actually I... have seen through you a long time ago. I know why you are like this."
Chu Qing swallowed: "I don't know what you are talking about."
"Don't you know?" Tao Ruolin stood up, came to Chu Qing's side, and said softly: "You were struck by thunder, right?"
"I…"
"It's because of this thunder... that you have become a different person."
Chu Qing leaned back subconsciously, smelling the fragrance emanating from Tao Ruolin's body, and felt extremely nervous. He always felt that the other person's big eyes seemed to be able to see into people's hearts.
"You...are no longer the eldest young master of the Chu Mansion." Tao Ruolin's smile grew stronger: "The reason why you changed into a different person is precisely because of that thunder."
"Sister, please step back. Besides, your story is really not very good. I don't even know what you are talking about."
"Then tell me why you have changed."
"I, I haven't changed."
"No, you have changed." Tao Ruolin sat back and smiled: "You have done too many bad things in the past. God can't stand it. He sent down the divine thunder to kill you, but you survived the catastrophe. You understand the laws of nature.
I was unhappy with the cycle of retribution, so I suddenly changed my temper and wanted to be a good person, because I was afraid that God would send thunder from the sky again and take away you, a bad person."
Chu Qing's face was dull.
This reasoning... is impeccable!
Standing up, Chu Qing bent down and held his hands in his hands: "You have seen through it, I am extremely impressed!"
Tao Ruolin's complexion changed slightly and her beautiful eyebrows wrinkled.
She felt that Chu Qing was deceiving her!
Originally, she really thought that Chu Qing was struck by lightning, and then he changed his past and turned a new leaf.
But it was precisely because Chu Qing "admitted" it, admitted it openly and openly. Since he "admitted it", it meant that... what he guessed was wrong at all. The other party's temperament changed drastically due to other reasons!
From this moment on, Tao Ruolin's "interest" in Chu Qing skyrocketed.
