Qiao Niang answered very quickly. She had more than thirty people under her.
Jingwan was interested and asked a few more questions. Then, she found out what she wanted to know. Most of them were multi-talented, and some of them were particularly outstanding in a certain aspect. For example, they had a golden voice, or they had an extremely enchanting and charming figure as they danced. Another example was that their attainments in a certain musical instrument were at the level of a great master.
Jingwan propped up her chin and was quite interested. Thinking about it, she knew that those who could stay in Jin Qinwang fu, their appearance was probably not bad. Perhaps all of them were more beautiful than Jingwan. If these people were placed in her previous life, nine out of ten of them would have been praised as goddesses. However, in this place, not only were they reduced to the lowest of the low, they were even playthings that others could play with. Their fates were completely out of their control.
Thinking of this, Jingwan's interest also faded. If they were well-behaved, she didn't mind raising a group of idlers. As for Li Hongyuan, to be honest, if a man wanted to cheat, it wasn't something that you could control or prevent. Especially when male power reigned supreme, saying one more word could be seen as jealousy and become a reason for being abandoned. So why bother?
However, some words should be appropriately mentioned. For some men, feelings and bodies were separated. His love for you was not fake, but he also didn't think that there was anything wrong with sleeping with other women. Therefore, she should let him know her own position and thoughts. What choice he would make in the end, it was entirely up to him. Then, she would also know whether she should wholeheartedly manage this marriage and even their feelings, or be a pure virtuous wife and loving mother. From now on, they were like strangers.
Although they didn't dare to stare straight at Jingwan, the people below still carefully observed Jingwan's expression. Obviously, Jingwan's "change in expression" made them think crookedly and naturally became more uneasy.
Most of the people who stayed in Jin Qinwang fu thought that this was a good place to return to. Jin Qinwang was often elusive and would occasionally appear to admire a dance, listen to a song, or listen to one or two plays. There was nothing else. The rumor that there was a flute every night was a joke. Jin Qinwang did take one or two people with him and then heard how they were favoured. But after a few days, there was no news. Those who had crooked thoughts and leaned on him didn't have a good ending. Gradually, they also understood that being well-behaved and honest, doing what they should do, then they could settle down and live their lives. Moreover, in Jin Qinwang fu, no one made things difficult for them. In the eyes of outsiders, Jin Qinwang was malicious and ruthless, with unpredictable moods, but in their eyes, Jin Qinwang was a good master.. he didn't deliberately do anything, but protected them..
Therefore, they really didn't want to be driven out.
Jingwan didn't ask about the theatrical troupe anymore. However, since there was a distinction between men and women, then there shouldn't be any "confusion". Jingwan nodded, indicating that she understood and let them retreat to one side for the time being.
Then Jingwan understood the situation in all aspects and pondered for a moment, "Like this, you can send the account books for nearly a year later to the main courtyard. Both the open and the dark account books will be together."
When these words came out, there was a small commotion below, "Wangfei, how can this account book be open and dark."
Jingwan took a look. That was the steward who was in charge of the kitchen. Before, there was only one master in the wangfu, Li Hongyuan. The things he ate had a special channel. In this aspect, the purchasing steward couldn't scrape any profit. But don't forget, there were hundreds of people in the wangfu. Someone like Mu An, who served the master closely, was not worse than other people's masters. This piece was really very fat.
If he didn't speak so hoarsely, maybe he would be more credible.
"I just want to have a look. I'm not going to do anything. If you really don't have any secret accounts, then forget it. Just take whatever you have." Jingwan said softly and took another sip of tea.
However, these stewards' hearts were beating like drums. She had said so and given them a choice, but who knew if she was speaking the truth or being sarcastic? If they did not do as she wished, perhaps she would use this opportunity to remove them and replace them with her own position. This wang fei was a bit too powerful. But how could they take out the secret accounts?
Eunuch Mu stared at these people with unkind eyes. They didn't know what was good for them. They just did whatever the Wangfei said. They were really too relaxed. They didn't even know their names. They really needed to be taught.
Jingwan reached out and gently knocked on the small square table next to her. She glanced at Eunuch Mu lightly. Eunuch Mu hurriedly restrained his expression and pretended to say, "Your Highness, I'm very honest and well-behaved."
You don't have to do everything by yourself. Just give the order. However, I'll say the ugly words first. If anyone gets into trouble, the higher-ups will be punished as well. The punishment will be doubled for the higher-ups and quadrupled for the higher-ups. You can't do it more than three times. If you do it more than three times, you'll lose your job. If you want to be promoted again, you'll have to compete with your own ability. Of course, it's a healthy competition. If you want to play tricks, it's fine. However, you have to be prepared to be kicked out of the Prince's Mansion once you're found out … "
This time, everyone was shocked. "Your Highness, this, this is against the rules."
Eunuch Mu wanted to stand up, but he immediately restrained himself. Who was His Highness that she still needed his support? It was simply a joke. Maybe Master would cut him to death later.
"I don't care about the previous rules. From now on, the big and small matters of Jin Qinwang fu are the rules. Do you have any objections? "Since a certain someone had handed over the Prince's Mansion to her to manage, it was natural to follow her rules.
She had already said this, what objections could they have? Even if they had, they had to hold it in.
Jingwan nodded and continued to speak, "After a few days, I will figure out the situation of the Prince's Mansion. I will probably set up two deputies for each steward. You can also consider it yourselves. As long as you have the ability, you won't stick to one pattern."
Deputy, no matter what they did, they could be an assistant, but naturally, they could also be a constraint. To put it bluntly, it was probably a check and balance.
This time, they didn't dare to say anything. They all said that a new broom sweeps clean, but this fire burned too fiercely.
"The last point, you can only stay in your position for a year. After a year, you can choose again. It's up to you to choose. Whether you continue to sit in your position or be overthrown by others, it will all depend on your own ability."
This time, each and every one of them were smashed until they saw stars.
"So … …"
"Wan Wan, are you still not done?"
Li Hongyuan's arrival made everyone hurriedly greet him, but Li Hongyuan simply ignored them.
Jingwan tilted her head and got up, "Why did Wangye come?"
Li Hongyuan pulled Jingwan's hand, "Ben Wang hasn't seen you come back for a long time, so Ben Wang came to see. Is the matter very troublesome? Just throw it to them, there's no need to personally attend to everything. If they can't do a small thing well, just change them. It doesn't matter if there are more people in the Prince's Mansion, but if they can't share Master's burdens, there's no need for them to exist. "
Jingwan's words made them worry, but Li Hongyuan directly made them keep quiet out of fear.
"If you don't like these people, you can just replace them with your dowry."
"It's not that serious. Moreover, with just this concubine's few people, it's not enough to split one person in half. They are all old people in the Prince's Mansion and are familiar with everything in the Prince's Mansion. If they were all changed, wouldn't it be a mess? Besides, there's no wrong or wrong here, how can you casually dismiss people? In Wangye's eyes, this concubine is a nepotistic and unreasonable person? "Jingwan knew that he had her back, so she was naturally very cooperative.
Li Hongyuan reached out and pinched the tip of her nose, "You really don't have a conscience, treating my good intentions as ill intent. Who is this Prince doing this for?" It seemed like he was reprimanding her, but his tone and actions were exceptionally intimate.
They had never seen Li Hongyuan like this before. It could be seen that Wangfei had a high position in his heart.
"Didn't Wangye say that he would leave all the big and small matters of the Prince's Mansion to this concubine?"
"Yes, yes, yes, I'll leave it all to you. You have the final say in everything."
Jingwan smiled and then said to the people below: "Let's end it here for today. Send the account books to the main courtyard as soon as possible. You can disperse. "What should be said had been said. Smart people should know what she meant, so there was no need for unnecessary nonsense.
On the contrary, Li Hongyuan directly pulled Jingwan away. Now that there was nothing to do, he just took her to stroll around the courtyard.
Although she hadn't walked around carefully, Jingwan could roughly see that there were many courtyards in Jin Wangfu, but there were fewer houses built. It was full of corridors and pavilions, flowers and trees, mountains and rivers. The courtyards weren't separated by mud. It was simply a large garden. The layout was beautiful, the design was exquisite, and nothing more beautiful. When there was nothing to do, there were many places to spend time in this mansion.
"The Prince's Mansion is built in a unique style and is not the same as other manors." Jingwan's eyes were full of admiration.
"Like it?"
"En, I like it very much."
Li Hongyuan hooked his lips into a smile, with a bit of pride, "I designed it."
"I couldn't tell that Wangye has this ability." Jingwan pretended to be surprised.
"Tsk, is it true?"
"That's because I feel that Wangye is omnipotent, so it's not strange to do anything."
"Is this little mouth smeared with honey today, so sweet? Let Ben Wang have a taste. "Li Hongyuan made a gesture to kiss her.
"Hey … …" Jingwan smiled and pushed him away, "Where is the theater in the mansion?"
Li Hongyuan glanced at Jingwan. She didn't hide her thoughts at all, so Li Hongyuan naturally saw through it. "I'm raising it for fun. In the future, it will relieve your boredom. If you want to keep it, then keep it. If you don't want to keep it, then send it away."
"Ah Yuan, I'm not a magnanimous person." Jingwan said seriously.
