"Letting her mother do it herself isn't a bad idea." Li Hongyuan stirred the tea, paused, and put the cup back. He didn't know what method Luo Peishan was going to use to process the tea leaves. If he was slow, it would take a few months, but if he was fast, the tea leaves would be ready by this time. No matter what, he was the one who picked them, so there was nothing wrong with going to take a look.
As for Ruan Fangfei, he basically didn't need to do anything. With Uncle Wang there, he only needed to watch over them at the right time. As for Ruan Ruizhong, he only needed to give him one more straw. This could be delayed. He already had a plan for when to make a move. It wouldn't take too long. In any case, before returning to the capital, everything should be settled.
"Who did you look for last night?" Li Hongyuan looked indifferently at Qing Shi and Qing Ge, who were bringing the young maidservants to serve lunch. He didn't suspect that they would disobey his orders, nor did he have any interest in the private affairs of his subordinates. It was just that when he saw them, he suddenly thought of it and was a little curious.
Qing Ge's hand trembled and almost dropped the plate in her hand. On the other hand, Qing Shi was very calm and naturally reached out to catch it. She then placed it on the table. If she smashed the plate now, it would be equivalent to smashing her little life.
— — Li Hongyuan wouldn't take their lives for such a small matter, but it was certain that he wouldn't let them continue to serve by his side. They would return to where they came from. As for the maidservants who knew some things about Li Hongyuan, even without Li Hongyuan's order, Eunuch Mu wouldn't let them leave in one piece. Not being able to speak or write was the most basic. That was equivalent to being a cripple. Moreover, if they were sent back by their master, there would definitely be a problem. Who else would use them?
Among the servants, the situation of flattering the strong and stepping on the weak was even more serious. When in power, those who were older than you would affectionately call you "Elder Sister" or "Master". Once you lost power, they would immediately spit at you and squeeze you to death.
Qing Ge looked at Qing Shi gratefully. Sure enough, she hadn't trained enough and still needed to be sharpened.
Serving by Li Hongyuan's side was definitely a very tough thing to do. Basically, being able to smoothly serve under him for three months, then if it was outside, others would probably give him a thumbs up and say, "You're not flustered in the face of change, amazing." Who knew that this was the most basic thing in Jin Qinwang fu. Of course, when faced with the master's sullen face, no one could withstand it.
It was clearly something that would make a girl so ashamed that she would be unable to show her face. Just because the master didn't care at all, she had to also not care when replying. Therefore, after putting down the things in her hands, she dismissed the young servant girl and respectfully replied.
"Replying to Master, it's the brat in charge of all the flowers and plants in the Prince's Mansion." Qing Shi was the first to speak.
"Replying to Master, it's the guards …"
Li Hongyuan raised his hand and Qingge hurriedly shut her mouth. The guards he brought weren't few, but compared to the other brothers, there weren't many. If he only chose from the guards, other than An Yi, it didn't matter who it was. The maidservants around him also knew their limits. Those people couldn't be chosen, so they should have a plan in their hearts. However, "Gardener? You chose it yourself? "
Because of Jingwan, Li Hongyuan valued the flowers and plants in the Prince's Mansion very much. And the things he looked at, for the people who took care of them, their value would naturally multiply. Therefore, gardeners who didn't have any status elsewhere, in Jin Qinwang fu, there were many people who fought to be gardeners. Even if they didn't know how to do it, they would also secretly learn, hoping that one day they could compete for the position.
In the Prince's Mansion, there were hundreds of servants, but those who could see Li Hongyuan were actually a minority among the minority. And the people who served by his side were naturally the targets of other people's flattery. However, these people were also not easy to see. No matter where they were, they paid attention to the rules and did their own things. The Prince's Mansion was so big, but the places they could go were very small. If they dared to walk around randomly, once they were caught, being sold was a light punishment. Although the gardener was slightly valued by Li Hongyuan, it was different from the yahuan at his side. The yahuan could know some things, but the gardener couldn't.
The reason why Li Hongyuan would bring the gardener over was only because when next year's summer vacation, Wan Wan would be with him and not with the Luo family. No matter if it was inside the Summer Palace or the other courtyards outside, they all needed to be meticulously taken care of.
Qing Shi naturally also knew this situation and hesitated, "It was he who came to find me."
"Ben Wang actually didn't know that there was such an idiot like you by my side. Just a random man who came to find you and you responded? This matter, how did he know? " In Jin Qinwang fu, except for a few people, everyone else also thought that the four yahuan at his side were all there to warm his bed.
This matter, if you said it was big, then it was small. But no matter what, the matter related to him was leaked out. Someone must have neglected their duty. At that time, there were only these few people present, so they all knelt down and begged for forgiveness.
— — If there was one matter that was leaked out, it meant that other matters were also possible.
The gardener slipped over at the fastest speed. Originally, because he had won the beauty, he was flushed with success. But suddenly, such a thing happened. For a moment, he was stunned. Facing his master who was imposing without being angry, he knelt on the ground and trembled.
However, Li Hongyuan wasn't interested in handling this matter himself, "Mu An, ben Wang only wants results."
"Yes, Master." Mu Gonggong hurriedly responded.
He was Li Hongyuan's close attendant and also the steward of Jin Qinwang fu. When there was no accident, naturally everything was fine. But once something happened, it would be difficult for him to absolve himself from the blame. Therefore, at this time, Mu Gonggong also hated to the point of wanting to kill someone.
Except for An Yi, everyone else retreated.
"Master, do you want to eat?" An excellent shadow guard serving his master's meal was also not a problem.
Li Hongyuan looked at the large table full of exquisite dishes and didn't have much appetite. Now, it seemed that he didn't want to eat alone. But now, he was in the temporary residence. He didn't even need to eat lunch and left in a hurry. His good mufei would probably nag again.
He ate more or less, but the main dishes on the table were not touched. In the summer, who would eat those oily and greasy things? The cook he brought naturally knew his taste. Therefore, these main dishes were in fact sent by Le Chengdi and Concubine Su. Even if they knew his taste, they were afraid that he wouldn't eat well and said that he ate too bland. Therefore, they kept sending.
Li Hongyuan ate a little and put down his chopsticks, "Take it down. You can divide it."
"Thank you, Master, for the reward." An Yi said. After going out for a moment, he came in with the other brothers and nimbly cleaned up the table. For the servants, these were not the leftovers of the master, but a gift. Without the master's order, the people in the kitchen could only secretly drool after receiving the food. After all, the food that was served to Li Hongyuan, even if it was a small cabbage, was carefully cultivated and extraordinary, not to mention the other dishes. The ingredients used were all first-class. Some of the dishes only had one ingredient, and perhaps they would not be able to earn money for the ingredients in the kitchen in their lifetime. How could they not be envious?
On Eunuch Mu's side, the results of the interrogation had already come out. It was just a coincidence.
The gardener had a "bear's heart and leopard's guts". He had long taken a fancy to Qing Shi, but he knew that she was the master's person, so he had been bitterly suppressing himself. Who knew that yesterday in the garden, he accidentally heard Qing Shi talking to a guard. The general idea was vague, but he understood the essence. Then, he excitedly ran out to find Qing Shi. However, he didn't dare to break into the master's courtyard, so he could only wait outside while scratching his ears and cheeks. Even after confirming that Qing Shi was in the main room, he had been anxious and uneasy. He waited until night time when he finally saw Qing Shi come out. Because he had waited for too long, from the beginning, he was worried whether Qing Shi would refuse or whether she already had someone else in her heart. When he saw her, he didn't think about anything else and directly went up to her.
Therefore, from the beginning, the gardener didn't think about whether Qing Shi was a virgin or not. Even if she wasn't, he wouldn't have minded.
In fact, Qing Shi had a bit of a broken jar and had the idea of falling for whoever she met. Otherwise, she wouldn't have dawdled until night time. The gardener's appearance was out of her expectations. At that time, she thought that if someone took the initiative, it would save her the embarrassment of taking the initiative. Then, things became so muddle-headed. Only then did Qing Shi realize that there were some problems, but it was too late for regrets. Therefore, she wanted to find an opportunity to explain to the master, but Li Hongyuan asked first.
Eunuch Mu had used some extreme methods and combined with the confessions of several people, he couldn't find any loopholes.
Even so, Qing Ge's new "lover" didn't notice that someone had heard the conversation between Qing Ge and him. Whether it was because he heard something too shocking or not, his attention was all on Qing Ge. He had neglected his duty, so he had to be punished. Qing Ge was also punished. As for Qing Shi, she was negligent and didn't understand the situation clearly before she "ran away" with someone. That was even more unforgivable. Therefore, these two pairs of "mandarin ducks" were not left behind. The most miserable one was the gardener, who was punished severely by Eunuch Mu. He was already half-dead. He directly lay in front of Li Hongyuan and couldn't get up. Even so, he still banged his head on the ground and begged Li Hongyuan not to punish Qing Shi. He was willing to bear the punishment for the two of them.
Li Hongyuan was infatuated with Jingwan, but it didn't mean that he would have compassion when he saw other infatuated people. He didn't care about other people, so he didn't look at them and directly got up to leave. Eunuch Mu was about to follow when Li Hongyuan suddenly stopped and turned around. "20 planks."
Eunuch Mu's heart trembled. He felt that he was wronged, but he didn't dare to plead for mercy. "Yes."
Li Hongyuan was already used to it. If it was someone else who didn't understand his temperament, it would only be more troublesome.
After Li Hongyuan walked away, Eunuch Mu's face was a bit gloomy. He raised his foot to kick the gardener, but he was blocked halfway by Qing Shi. That's right, the four maidservants of Qing Shi, Ge, and Fu were not delicate. They all had a certain foundation in martial arts.
Li Hongyuan didn't need those maidservants who couldn't lift or lift their shoulders. When needed, he could use women as men and men as livestock. He wouldn't pity them because they were young or because they were women. There was only one person he would pity.
Being blocked, Eunuch Mu's face turned even darker, but he could only glare at Qing Shi. There was nothing else he could do.
He was Li Hongyuan's personal attendant and Jin Qinwang fu's steward. These were all true. However, the people around Li Hongyuan, the phenomenon of flattering the high and stepping on the low was the lightest. Because it was impossible to put other people's eyes in front of him. Thus, as long as the master was not biased, even if you had more power, it was useless. If there was an internal strife, Li Hongyuan would be able to sweep them all with a spoon. Those that Eunuch Mu could casually step on were those that couldn't squeeze in front of Li Hongyuan. Eunuch Mu could only flick his sleeves and leave.
When there were only two people left, Qing Shi helped him up. Her heart was very complicated. Originally, she didn't expect to find a good person in this life, but suddenly, an infatuated person appeared. "The punishment for two people, your little life is gone. Do you want me to find another one after you die?"
The gardener was stunned, "Then, then I'll help you bear part of it? It's fine as long as it doesn't take my life. In the future, in the future, let me take care of everything. Qing Shi, what do you say? "
Qing Shi looked at this face that could only be considered delicate and pretty. That serious expression with a bit of apprehension, she suddenly burst out laughing.
When Li Hongyuan went to Luo family, he didn't hide from anyone and was very calm. He also didn't worry about people suspecting that he was roping in Luo Peishan. Thinking about it, Luo Peishan now had a tendency to develop into a solitary official. Just ask, to support someone to the throne, was it possible to just be a Minister of the Ministry of Appointments?
When Li Hongyuan entered Luo family's door, he was more leisurely and at ease than when he entered his own home. Those who didn't know would think that this was his home.
Luo Peishan's nose and eyes weren't his nose and his nose. Jingwan was also a bit speechless. Wangye, you just came the night before, so you don't need to come so diligently.
In the end, Li Hongyuan still gave Luo Peishan some face and didn't completely ignore him. He focused his attention on Jingwan and changed the topic to the tea leaves, indicating that he wanted to take a look.
Luo Peishan's expression finally improved a little. Then, he took it out with a bit of intention to show off. It was only a shallow box less than half the size of a palm. The tea inside looked pitifully small. "Only this much?"
"Of course not." Luo Peishan said unhappily.
