Chu Qinghuang did not stay in the imperial study for too long.

She was busy for half the night last night and got up early this morning. She wanted to go back and catch up on some sleep. The matter in Hong Shangshu's Mansion has come to an end. Whether the case will be tried or the investigation will continue is the matter of the Ministry of Punishment. It is also up to the emperor to decide whether Hong family members should continue to investigate or let go.

She didn't want to get involved.

It was already past breakfast time when we returned to the Princess Mansion, and we would have lunch in an hour. However, the Eldest Princess Mansion did not have strict time regulations, so you could eat whenever you wanted.

Chu Qinghuang went to take a hot bath first, changed her clothes, and sat down to eat refreshingly.

Mingyue also cooked the medicine and brought it over and put it on the table.

Fucang sat down next to Chu Qinghuang. Before he started drinking a bowl of medicine, there was a sound of footsteps outside.

The moment Chu Qinghuang raised her eyes, she was almost dazzled. She saw the four young masters who used to live in seclusion walked in together. They were tall, elegant, and handsome, and they were quite eye-catching at first glance.

Entering the palace, the four of them elegantly lifted their clothes and saluted: "See your Royal Highness, the eldest princess."

Chu Qinghuang said nothing and looked at them silently.

The white clothes are refined, the blue clothes are elegant, the red clothes are bright, and the cloud clothes are indifferent.

The appearance is good, the clothes are good, and the demeanor is different. It is indeed a good visual enjoyment.

However, Chu Qinghuang frowned: "What are you doing?"

"Mr. Wen said that Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess, has a distinguished status and is the head of the house. As servants to the king, according to the rules, we should prepare for the morning and dusk and pay greetings to Her Highness." The young man in white said respectfully, "If we can go with Her Royal Highness, Breakfast would be great. ”

Chu Qinghuang's eyes fell on Wen Zhan's face.

"This is indeed what I think." Wen Zhan said humbly, "I saw the wise and mighty demeanor of Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess last night, and was deeply impressed by Her Majesty's courage. After careful consideration, Wen Zhan is willing to serve Your Highness. I just hope that His Highness will show you some love and affection from time to time."

Occasionally showing some affection?

Chu Qinghuang said calmly: "I don't have time to pity you."

"What did His Highness say?" The young man in red seemed a little aggrieved. "We are all His Highness's servants. When His Highness forced us into the mansion, he did not say that we would be left out in the cold. of."

Chu Qinghuang said expressionlessly: "So?"

so?

Hong Yu said weakly: "So your Highness, shouldn't he be exposed to both rain and dew?"

The air fell silent.

Chu Qinghuang put down her chopsticks and raised her hand to rub her eyebrows.

She really wanted to cut open this boy's head to see what weird thoughts he had in his head.

Both rain and dew are touched?

Listen, is this what a normal man should say?

"I was busy in the middle of the night last night. I got up and entered the palace before dawn this morning. I have to catch up on my sleep later." Chu Qinghuang said in a calm tone, "So I don't have time to deal with you today, so I will do whatever I need to do."

Hong Yu's expression changed slightly: "Your Highness, what you mean is that you can wait until His Highness has rested?"

Chu Qinghuang didn't speak, his eyes passed over the four of them silently, and after a moment, he asked a seemingly unrelated question: "Who is the richest among the four of you?"

Well?

How to answer this question?

"I am the poorest." Hong Yu took a step to the side, "Have you forgotten, Your Highness? Your Highness bought me from a human trafficker. I am an orphan without a father or mother. I have nothing, let alone money. "

Chu Qinghuang narrowed his eyes.

"I am the concubine of the Wen family, and His Highness knows it." Wen Zhan smiled, "I have always been short of money and not very rich. Fortunately, my life was quite comfortable when I lived in the Princess Mansion, and the servants did not make things difficult for me. , three meals a day is not a problem, and we don’t have many places to spend money, so we don’t have to worry about making ends meet.”

Chu Qinghuang's lips twitched.

"Although I have some savings, I'm not willing to spend them." Qi Ling frowned, "As Wen Zhan said, we live in the princess's mansion, and our food and clothing are sent to us. We don't have much to spend money on, so we start from home. I still have more than half of the one hundred taels I brought."

One hundred taels?

Chu Qinghuang's expression was subtle.

"Report to Your Highness." The last one to speak was Zhong Jin, who was courteous and elegant, "I——"

"I know that you don't have any money either." Chu Qinghuang accepted his words calmly, "So the biggest benefit of entering the princess's mansion is that you will have no worries about food and clothing from now on?"

The four of them looked shocked: "Your Highness, Holy Ming."

"Then who can explain to me, which god gave you the red crocodile gauze, Sichuan brocade robes, satin robes, and sky silk snow clothes you are wearing?" Chu Qinghuang raised his eyes, his voice was cold and indifferent, "Three concubines , an orphan, but the clothes he wears are better than those of the heirs of serious families in the imperial capital. You are really so poor that it makes people sit up and take notice. "

As soon as the words fell, the hall fell into silence.

"Hongyu." Chu Qinghuang looked at the first young man who cried out for poverty, "The clothes you are wearing are made of South China Sea shark gauze. It is light and elegant and will not get wet in the water. It is said that you can get one every few years and it is worth thousands of gold. You first Explain to me."

Hong Yu glanced at her silently, with an innocent look in his dark eyes: "Your Highness, I... I really don't know anything."

"Where did your clothes come from?"

"Picked up...picked up."

"Kneel down."

Hong Yu pursed his lips and knelt down in aggrieved manner.

Chu Qinghuang turned his eyes slightly and looked at Qi Ling.

"Ahem." Qi Ling coughed lightly and said before Chu Qinghuang asked, "I picked it up too."

After that, she knelt down.

Chu Qinghuang: "..."

Shen Zhongjin hesitated: "I... I don't know if the clothes I'm wearing are worth money..."

"Definitely more than one hundred taels."

Shen Zhongjin choked and knelt down without saying a word.

Chu Qinghuang frowned and looked at Wen Zhan: "Who gave you your clothes?"

Wen Zhan silently lifted his clothes and knelt down, speechless.

"You have more than this set of clothes." Chu Qinghuang said indifferently, "The last time you had dinner with me, the clothes you wore were also made of rare treasures, so until you give me a reasonable explanation, just kneel like this."

You can afford such expensive materials, but you cry poor in front of her?

According to their status as unfavored bastards of aristocratic families, and their situation of being neglected since entering the princess's mansion, it is reasonable for them to wear blue clothes and cloth shirts.

However, looking at the clothes and demeanor of the four people in front of them, I'm afraid that someone would believe that they are princes and nobles.
