wealthy queen

Chapter 440 Too many people!

"If you want to buy property for me, don't be in a hurry for now. I have an idea. I will tell you when it clears up in two days."

Looking back and forth at them, Shen Liang became a little more serious. He didn't dispose of all his properties in Daqin, and most of the shops he operated on the surface were sold off, while the property rights and Zhuangzi in Jiulipu were kept. It is enough to have these private properties. With the extra money in his hand, he wants to do something else. Now Brother Yue can be regarded as the uncle of the country, and it is not good to still run a shop and Zhuangzi.

"Okay, then you tell us as soon as possible, we are all ready to flex our muscles."

The four of them looked at each other, and the representative Wei Yue said that they all knew that once Liang Liang got serious, it would be a big deal.

"If you're really free, go and tidy up the Dongling Palace. When the elder brothers and the others come back, you all have to move in and live there. Put them back together as soon as possible, and they can live there directly when they come back."

Long before he came back, Pei Yuanlie asked Pei Yuanfeng to give Shen Da the title of king, and still continued the word Dongling, and at the same time, there was also King Yong'an, but he didn't give Yong'an Palace for the time being, and wanted to wait until everything was straightened out. After all, he Haven't been back for six years.

"It's true, then I will go out of the palace with you tomorrow, and take the children with me by the way. They must be very curious about the outside when they are newcomers."

Hearing that, Wei Zeqian intervened in their conversation, the situation is different now, they can't live in the palace forever, Tangling Palace will be their next home.

"Bring more people. Tomorrow I will issue a decree to crown the crown prince in the early court. Just in case, it's better to be careful."

Pei Yuanzheng said in a timely manner, a posthumous position caused such a commotion, let alone the position of the crown prince?In this world, there is never a shortage of desperate people.

"Well, Yaoguang, tomorrow you will follow daddy and the others, Yuan Shao, you will arrange a group of people to go to the palace tonight, the servants don't need to buy anything for the time being, we will talk about it when the brothers come back."

Shen Liang nodded in agreement, she should indeed be more cautious.

"Why don't you bring Xiaobai and Xiaohe with you?"

Yaoguang was just joking, but Pei Yuanlie agreed: "Okay, one for each of them, including Yiteng."

"..."

Master, is it really okay for you to be so capricious?Aren't you afraid of frightening these people in the palace and the people of the imperial city?

The slander belongs to the slander, but Yaoguang dare not say it casually, he still wants to save his life and wait for their Xiao Zhenzhen to come back.

The dinner was served one after another. Because there were too many dishes at noon and the portions were too small, some of the dishes were gone with one chopstick per person. Pei Yuanzheng had already ordered the imperial dining room not to prepare too many tricks, but to add more Just order the portions, so there are only twenty dishes for dinner, they are divided into two tables, and they eat in the main hall.

"It smells so good!"

The little buns walked into the hall feeling refreshed after smelling the fragrance, Dabao returned to his parents spontaneously, Shen You and Qin Yiteng took Shen Hua and Shen Lin brothers to sit under Wei Zeqian, Little Shitou and Xiaodouzi Squeezed between his parents, Pei Yuanlie looked at his daughter-in-law through them, and felt the urge to stuff them back into her stomach. Since he had them, his chances of being close to Liangliang were getting better and better. less and less.

It's not that he didn't feel his resentful little eyes, Shen Liang shook his head helplessly, and tied bibs on the two sons respectively, Xiaodouzi took the spoon and shouted impatiently: "Father, I'm hungry, let's eat."

"Okay, okay, let's have a meal, I see you are in a hurry."

Doting on his little nose, Shen Liang picked up the chopsticks and gave each of the brothers a piece of pine fish meat. The fishbone was cleaned up by the imperial chefs long before cooking, so there was basically no need to worry about getting stuck in them. The eating habits of the children are well developed. The adults can eat whatever they put in, and they are not picky at all.

Pei Yuanlie, who was still muttering about stuffing his son back into his father's stomach a second ago, turned into a son slave in an instant, picked up their small bowls and filled them with half a bowl of steamed eggs with minced meat, and did not forget to scoop them up for Liangliang. A bowl of yellow ginseng chicken soup and big chicken legs stewed so soft and glutinous were also served to him.

"Brother, eat meat."

Xiao Shenyou on the other side already knew how to take care of his younger brother. He ate a piece of braised pork elbow and thought it tasted good, so he immediately took a piece for his two younger brothers. The meat is delicious, give it to my brother."

"it is good."

Hearing that Shen Liang stretched out his chopsticks to pick up a piece of meat for the two brothers, the two buns raised their heads and said in unison: "Thank you Guo Guo, queen father."

"Hey, eat quickly."

Touching them dotingly, Shen Liang raised his head again and said: "You'er eat quickly too, the food will be cold later, Yi Teng, don't just take care of your younger brother, eat more yourself, look at how thin you are , Have you eaten well all these years?"

"Ah."

The two people who were named looked at each other, even though they were being nudged, they still smiled and nodded obediently at the same time. Sitting next to them, Wei Zeqian and Lao Lin would add some food and soup to them from time to time, and when the little buns were almost filled With a full stomach, one by one, you and I talked one by one, and reported to Shen Liang the results of their expedition today. From time to time, everyone at the two tables burst into laughter. Yin Zhui and Yiqian Gong who had been kicked out long People turned their heads and looked inside from time to time. Although they were not very old, they were already old people in the palace. Over the years, they had never felt so warm and lively.

"Father, your belly is full!"

After eating and drinking enough, all that should be said was finished, Xiaodouzi pulled Shen Liang to touch his swollen belly, Shen Liang rubbed it with a smile, and then touched the little stone: "Well, I'm full Come on, it's snowing outside, don't go out, just take a walk in the hall to refresh yourself."

"it is good."

With the permission of the queen father, the two brothers slid down from the chair one after another, and after meeting up with the other little buns, they all got together and chatted, as if they were going to discuss how to play.

"Little awl, withdraw the food."

Seeing that everyone was full, Pei Yuanlie raised his voice and shouted.

"okay!"

Yin Zhui responded enthusiastically, and directed the palace people to take away the leftovers and dishes, and gave them ginseng tea, fruits and snacks for them to chat with later.

"The servant sees the emperor, sees the empress."

Not long after, Pang Hai, Jinlian and Chen Guizhi walked in with their heads down. Shen Liang noticed carefully that the green bracelet on Chen Guizhi's wrist was gone, and the ornaments on Jinlian's head were also missing, and even the maid's clothes had been changed. A set of darker and more bloated ones.

Yin Zhui had already told him what happened in the apse before, but Pei Yuanlie did not make a sound, but sat next to Shen Liang, squinted his eyes and leaned lazily on the chair, Shen Liang took a sip of ginseng tea and Then slowly asked: "Where are your people?"

"Hui Niangniang, some of them are still busy, at most one cup of tea time, they can gather here."

Pang Hai with red and swollen cheeks replied tremblingly.

"Well, tell me first, how many people you have under your command, and what grades are they?"

They had just finished eating, and there were indeed some people who were busy, and Shen Liang didn't make things difficult on purpose. The three of them breathed a sigh of relief, and it was still Pang Hai who kowtowed to him first before saying, "I'm going to tell you, there are six cleaning eunuchs in the back hall." Ten, thirty accompanying eunuchs, sixty serving eunuchs in the palace, fifteen leading eunuchs, and one eunuch in charge, a total of 160 people.”

This is only the apse, not the front hall.

"Well, where are the ladies and maids?"

Shen Liang didn't express any opinion, she opened her mouth and turned to Jin Lian, the first-class female officer, who also kowtowed to him before she raised her head. Both Lao Lin and Wei Zeqian who had seen her before noticed that her face was painted with exquisite makeup. It has faded a lot. They didn't think so much at first, but now they can't help thinking in other directions.

"Returning to your empress, there are 60 rough maids in the back hall, 60 third-class maids, 20 second-class court ladies, eight first-class court ladies, 12 third-class court ladies, four second-class court ladies, and two first-class court ladies. The maidservant, and a first-class female official named Jin Xiao, she is in charge of the night shift, and the maidservant and her shift work every day at Haishi and Sishi, and there are also a total of 160 people."

Jin Lian didn't think too much, and respectfully reported the situation of the maids and officials in the apse.

"Your Majesty, there are 50 rough envoys and ten stewards in the back hall, plus the old servants in charge, a total of 61 people."

Without waiting for Shen Liang to ask, Chen Guizhi consciously reported after kowtow to him, different from before, the emperor is here at this time, although it is only a short day, who in the palace does not know that the emperor loves the empress?There has never been a so-called secret in the inner courtyard of the harem.

"A total of nearly 400 people."

Shen Liang narrowed his eyes and recalled a little bit. When he was the queen in his previous life, he had almost the same number, and he had to remove the Ouchi guards. At that time, he didn't think it was strange, but now, he felt that there were too many people: "Yin Zhui, Is this normal specification?"

"Your Majesty forgive me, Your Majesty forgives my sin. This servant didn't know that His Majesty and Your Majesty were going to live together, and only arranged to serve you alone. Tomorrow, this servant will make up for the rest."

Thinking that he was blaming him for embezzling people, Yin Zhui quickly took the initiative to admit his mistake, Shen Liang rolled his eyes angrily, and slowly opened his eyes and sat upright: "No, I think there are too many people."

"what?"

Yin Zhui was so stupid that he couldn't react, who would dislike too many people serving him?

The three people kneeling on the ground were equally confused, but Pei Yuanzheng and others were not surprised at all. Liangliang is not the kind of person who can't stand the noise, but he doesn't like letting untrustworthy people in his territory Walking up and down, even cleaning is not enough. In the past, the cleaning and other tasks of Prince Qingping's mansion were all in charge of the retreated armored guards. At the same time, they also have the ability to protect them and are very reliable. Although they also came together Xia Guo, but the palace is no better than the palace after all, none of them came to the palace.

"My palace and His Majesty are both men, so there is no need for female officials and maids, nor does the nanny, Yin Zhui, get rid of all these people."

After being silent for a while, ignoring their shock, Shen Liang said directly, he didn't want to study whether Jinlian had the intention of seducing Pei Yuanlie, and he didn't want to worry about how a nanny in charge could afford to wear a priceless jade bracelet. Before committing crimes, he gave them a way out. If they were sensible, they would leave honestly, otherwise...they would not leave. He didn't mind using their blood to cleanse the emperor's harem.

"This……"

Don't you want all the maids and maids?Are you sure you're not joking?

Yin Zhui hesitated, and looked at Pei Yuanlie for help, but the latter was still lazy and inattentive, with a look of approval but not hearing at all.

"Young lady can't do it!"

The female officer Jin Lian reflexively objected, and soon realized that she had overstepped her identity, and quickly kowtowed to apologize: "Your Majesty, forgive me, my lady forgive me, this servant offended my lady on the spur of the moment."

"You said no, why not?"

Pei Yuanlie glanced at her lightly, still not intending to make a sound, but the curvature of the corners of Shen Liang's mouth became slightly wider, but if you look closely, there is no trace of a smile in his eyes.
