Chapter 763

"Naturally, the worst is you."

"What are you two whispering about?"

While the two were talking, Bai Yingying's clear and sweet voice came from below.

As soon as Chu Li raised his head, he saw a beauty like an ice and snow elf standing at the foot of the steps. She was wearing a silver brocade skirt and a fiery red cape. The red-tailed fox fur around her neck made her look even more deceptive. Sai Xue, with a delicate little face, beautiful facial features, a pair of big bright eyes, black and white, with a slight smile, like a ray of warm sunshine in this cold wind, makes people feel warm from the bottom of their hearts .

She is extremely beautiful, dazzlingly beautiful, radiantly beautiful, and so beautiful that people cannot take their eyes off her.

At this moment, Chu Li felt more and more that the beauty in front of him seemed to be a little different from the former Bai Yingying, but he couldn't seem to tell what the difference was.

Subconsciously, Chu Li quickly stood aside and looked at Bai Yingying: "Aunt Qinhuang."

Shen Miao bowed slightly respectfully, "Minister see Princess Qin."

Lu Yuan beside Bai Yingying also bowed to Chu Li: "I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince."

"It's all free." She waved her hand, and then led Lu Yuan into the hall.

Bai Yingying walked by, and a gentle and warm fragrance blew past. Chu Li raised his hand subconsciously, as if he wanted to catch the wisp of warm fragrance, but he couldn't catch anything.

Shen Miao looked at Chu Li's appearance of losing control, and sneered in her heart, but said softly on her face, "His Royal Highness, do you still remember that the current Princess Qin used to tirelessly chase after His Highness, just to marry into the East Palace? , even as a side concubine is fine."

Chu Li suddenly became angry: "It's not all because of you!"

After finishing speaking, Chu Li walked away angrily.

Shen Miaowei did not leave immediately, but leisurely wandered around, looking at the scenery nearby.

In the Qiluan Hall, Lu Yuan presented the account book.

Emperor Chu glanced at it, then tossed it aside: "Lu Aiqing, you can read these account books and report them to me. Don't you need me to check them one by one? Then why do I need you as the secretary of the household department?"

Lu Yuan: "Your Majesty, there is something wrong with these account books."

"Is there a problem?" Emperor Chu asked suspiciously, "What's the problem?"

Lu Yuan hesitated a little, he subconsciously turned his head and looked at Bai Yingying.

Bai Yingying said: "Your Majesty, this is the account book handed over by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but the purchase price on it is very different from the actual one."

"What do you mean?" Emperor Chu was a little puzzled.

He picked up the account book again, looked at it for a while, and then handed it to Li Dezhong: "Dezhong, take a look."

Li Dezhong took it over and read a few pages, then shook his head: "Your Majesty, don't embarrass this old slave, how can this old slave understand this?"

Bai Yingying: "Your Majesty, let's take eggs as an example. On the market in Jinling City, an egg costs five cents. However, Your Majesty, look at the ledger, the price of eggs."

Li Dezhong immediately turned to the page with eggs, and handed it to Emperor Chu. When Emperor Chu saw it, his eyes widened in shock: "Ten taels of silver?"

"Exactly!" Bai Yingying said: "Five Wen coins to ten taels of silver, a total of two thousand times the false report, and this is just an egg, plus other things, the daily expenses in the palace are all worthless." It’s enough to support countless wealthy people.”

Emperor Chu was so angry that his beard turned up. He slammed the table in front of him and shouted sharply: "Bring me the head of the House of Internal Affairs, and I will ask him carefully."
