Absolutely!After crossing over, my maid is also reborn

Shen Qinglan has been depressed for several days since learning the news of Qian Lingshuang's pregnancy.

In the afternoon of this day, Mother Du came to Jialan Residence. She was an old mother in Prince Heng's mansion, and she was also the maid of Princess Xianheng.

"Princess, this old slave greets you."

"Mrs. Du, please get up quickly. Why did you work so hard to come here?"

Madam Du smiled and said, "You say that, I'm really offending this old slave. I want to report to the princess, during the New Year, some officials sent New Year's gifts to our prince's other courtyard, so this old slave came to ask the princess to show me, these How to deal with things."

"My instructions?" Shen Qinglan was puzzled, Murong Bo was always responsible for such matters.

"Murong Bo recently returned to the barracks. He seemed to have something important to do, and the old slave didn't dare to disturb him. I heard that an envoy came to court recently and wanted to live in our lord's other courtyard. The old slave thought, these things can't Just put it in another courtyard like this, if it is discovered, it will cause trouble for the prince." Madam Du said.

"Has it been unpacked?" Shen Qinglan asked.

"The prince didn't say that he would unpack it, so the servants didn't dare to move it. Princess, the other courtyard still needs to be repaired, so we don't dare to specialize in it." Madam Du said.

"Then, I'll take a look later?" Shen Qinglan said.

Madam Du smiled, "Okay, the concubine is going to see it, and this old servant has a good idea. We slaves don't understand these things. It would be bad if we neglected the envoys of other countries."

"When will that envoy come?" Shen Qinglan asked again.

"I don't know the exact time, I guess it will be here within a month." Madam Du replied.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Mommy, let's sit down and have a cup of tea." Shen Qinglan said.

"No, there is still something to do in the other courtyard, so I won't bother you."

After Madam Du left, Shen Qinglan glanced at the teacup in her hand, and said, "Yan'er, tell Ji Fan to arrange for four people to go to another hospital with me tomorrow afternoon."

"Princess, do you want to bring some guards? Someone has to carry those congratulatory gifts." Yan'er said.

"You don't need to ask the guards to carry it. Tell my second brother to ask him to transfer someone from the household department to carry the things away today to fill up the treasury." Shen Qinglan said.

"Ah?" Yan'er was very surprised, "Don't you need to tell the prince?"

"No, the prince said that these congratulatory gifts are supposed to go to the national treasury, so just carry them away. I don't want to cause this trouble, just say that the prince ordered the second brother to get it." Shen Qinglan said.

Yan'er thought for a while, and asked with some doubts: "If the princess becomes the master, wouldn't it be a credit to the court? How could it be trouble?"

Shen Qinglan smiled and took a sip of tea, "My lord and I are a family, if the gift giver knows that I moved these things and turned them over to the state treasury in the name of Linyuan, what if I ask for anything in the future?" Do it? So, I don’t dare to take the credit for any credit or not. If the courtiers of the household department do it, and it’s not our Linyuan people, it’s also a deterrent to those who give gifts.”

"Oh... I understand!" Yan'er suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "If it is accepted in the name of the Ministry of Households, it is another matter. As long as we don't hand over the gift list in Linyuan, no one will know These gifts were all given by the adults. We can gain a good reputation in the imperial court by holding the handle of their gifts, killing two birds with one stone."

"That's right." Shen Qinglan said.

"Princess, you are so smart, how did you think of so many things?" Yan'er asked.

"Gifts in court are very sensitive, so naturally we have to be more careful, and we can't leave something for others to cause trouble for the prince." Shen Qinglan said.

Yan'er asked again: "Then why did the princess ask Ji Fan to arrange someone? Are you afraid of danger on the road?"

"Me too... Be careful."

In the afternoon of the second day, Ji Fan brought Miao Ke, Diao Ge and Yuan Zi to Linyuan, and set off with Shen Qinglan to the Jingtai courtyard.

The housekeeper of the other courtyard was surnamed Liu, over half a hundred years old, and looked honest and honest. It was said that he was also an old man who had served the late Princess Heng.

"The old slave has seen the princess, please greet the princess."

Butler Liu led a group of servants and maidservants from other courtyards to kowtow to pay their respects.

"Get up, don't be too polite." Shen Qinglan said.

"Thank you, princess."

After everyone got up, Shen Qinglan said again: "Steward Liu, it's my first time visiting the other courtyard, please lead the way, so I can see what needs to be repaired."

"This is an old slave's duty, Wangfei, please."

Butler Liu took Shen Qinglan and the people from Linyuan to stroll around the other courtyard, and then returned to the front hall to drink tea and rest.

"Princess, how do you think our other courtyard should be repaired?" Liu Butler asked.

"You don't need to worry about the repairs. I will send someone from Linyuan to supervise the matter later. You are old and just take a rest. By the way, where is the account book of the other courtyard? Show me." Shen Qinglan road.

Butler Liu showed a look of embarrassment, "Uh...Okay, this old slave will go get it now."

Not long after, Steward Liu returned to the front hall with a ledger in his hand. Shen Qinglan took it and flipped through a few pages before putting it down again without saying anything.

"It's getting dark today, I'll go back first, and I will send someone over tomorrow."

Shen Qinglan stood up and walked out, but Butler Liu hurriedly followed.

"Steward Liu, please stay, you have worked hard today."

Butler Liu clasped his fists in salute, "The old slave respectfully sends the princess off."

After leaving the front hall, Shen Qinglan looked at the flowers, plants and landscapes in the other courtyard, feeling a little displeased.

Ji Fan asked, "Princess, do you think there is something wrong with the account of the other court?"

Shen Qinglan sneered, "Butler Liu only showed me the accounts for the last three months. It's obviously a guilty conscience, and it's a fake account. I only read a few pages, and found several loopholes, and the numbers are also very messy. , The ink is also new. This Butler Liu, he thinks I'm a fool."

"Princess, isn't Steward Liu an old man next to Princess Xianheng?" Yan'er asked.

"That's right, this Butler Liu has been serving the concubine since she married into Prince Heng's mansion, and she is quite trusted," Ji Fan said.

"So what? Even if he was loyal at the time, after so many years since the death of the late princess, people's hearts would have changed a long time ago." Shen Qinglan said.

"It's really disgusting! The prince trusted him, so he arranged him to be a housekeeper in another courtyard, and he is so ignorant!" Yan'er said angrily.

"I don't know what's good or bad, and I'm afraid it's not the only one." Shen Qinglan said.

"You mean... Madam Du? Could it be that Madam Du and Butler Liu are in the same boat?" Yan'er said.

"I'm not sure about this for the time being, but since Madam Du is taking care of the affairs of the other courtyard together with Steward Liu, it is naturally impossible for her to be completely ignorant." Shen Qinglan said.

"These guys are full of snakes and rats, it's really disgusting! Princess, why didn't you just deal with Butler Liu directly?" Yan'er asked.

"Throwing grass is easy to startle the snake, don't worry, let's wait and see. It's a pleasure to dispose of him for a while, if there is someone behind Butler Liu, wouldn't we be fools?" Shen Qinglan laughed.
