In the hall.

The butlers of the second, third, fourth and fifth princes gathered together. Each of the four butlers held a tea cup and slowly drank tea without anyone else around.

Except for the sound of the clinking of teacups, the four people had no communication or communication. It's just that the other three butlers will look at the second prince's butler from time to time.

The second prince is now the prince closest to the throne, so his words and deeds naturally receive the greatest attention from the other princes.

So after the other princes learned that the second prince actually invited a blind fortune teller to meet in private, they naturally felt that something was very wrong.

Although they didn't quite understand why this blind fortune teller suddenly appeared outside the second prince's house, it didn't stop them from taking immediate action.

After being arrested, beaten and tortured as quickly as possible, they all got a life-guaranteed sentence from the blind fortune teller.

"I will definitely only tell you and the second prince about this matter!"

"Spare my life, I can still go back to the Second Prince and work as a spy!!"

Although after the test results came out, their team was quickly intercepted.

However, among the many princes, the second prince was naturally the most suspicious of being able to prepare masters in the imperial city in a short period of time.

Therefore, the other princes suspected that the reason why only one of the teams they sent came back was because the second prince reacted too quickly and directly intercepted and killed the others.

After all, these princes are competing with each other and will not communicate on this matter.

So there was something naturally wrong with the way the other stewards looked at the steward of the Second Prince's family.

After the other princes got the information, they naturally wanted to find some strange people to verify the authenticity of the news.

But when they learned that the second prince had sent a housekeeper to the richest man Li's house early in the morning, they made up their mind. No matter whether the news was true or false, they couldn't let the second prince's people get it first!

Among the four people, the steward of the second prince's family had the calmest expression.

last night.

Three moles were found in the second prince's house.

This is actually normal. Everyone knows that there must be a mole in the second prince's house. Let alone three, they can accept it if they find thirty.

The purpose of my trip today was to see how many people were involved in the operation against the blind fortune teller.

Now that I see the other three housekeepers, I actually already know it in my heart.

Outside the hall, there was a series of footsteps.

Several housekeepers subconsciously raised their heads and glanced in the direction of the sound.

Li Momei walked slowly to the hall.

This was not because he walked so slowly on purpose, but because Li Momei still felt that the energy in her body had not returned, so she could only walk slowly.

The blushes on her face were barely covered by powder.

Otherwise, it would be really weird to go see someone with a red face.

When arriving at the door of the hall, Li Momei nodded gently towards the housekeepers.

Li Momei herself also has a lot of favors, and she doesn't belittle these housekeepers.

"All the housekeepers came together today. What are you doing?"

At this time, the expressions of the several housekeepers seemed to be very harmonious, and they said to each other without arguing:

"We just have some minor matters. The butler from the second prince's house is the first to come, so why not let him talk about it first?"

"When it comes to seniority rankings, the second prince's steward should speak first. Shopkeeper Li doesn't need to ask us first."

"Yes, yes, yes."

Three of the four butlers asked the second prince's butler to speak first. At this time, the second prince's butler did not refuse and took out a list from his arms with a smile.

"Actually, there is nothing wrong with today. Two years ago, the second prince borrowed four thousand taels of silver from shopkeeper Li because he wanted to print books for the scholars who came to Beijing to take the exams. It was only after checking the account yesterday that he discovered that the money had not been paid back. "

"I'm here to pay you back today."

As he spoke, the second prince's steward directly handed over the receipt and the four thousand taels of silver notes in his hand.

Then he cupped his fists at Li Momei and said:

"I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave now."

After saying this, the second prince's butler left without looking back.

The other three housekeepers were dumbfounded!

what's the situation?

Isn't the second prince's butler here to give a gift?

The second prince's butler didn't give any gifts, so he couldn't get his own gifts either!

If you take out the gift yourself, wouldn't it directly prove that you are the force that participated in the operation last night?

Even if some things can be guessed, they still do not exist until they are absolutely explained.

It's like the overt and covert struggles among many princes, none of them will be so obvious.

Li Momei held the receipt and banknote in her hand with a confused expression.

The account from two years ago was only four thousand taels. She really forgot why she gave this little money to the second prince.

When Li Mo didn't raise his head and looked at the other three stewards, the three stewards felt as if they had nothing to say.

The excuse they originally wanted to give themselves was that if the second prince's people gave gifts, they would also give gifts without bothering to find an excuse.

Who would have thought that the steward of the second prince's family was here to give money!

At this time, one of the stewards had an idea.

"Shopkeeper Li, I do have something to do when I come here, but I still can't open my mouth."

"Recently, our house needs to repair the back garden, and the money from the Ministry of Revenue has not arrived, so I would like to ask you directly to borrow five thousand taels first, and I will pay it back next month when the money arrives!"

The butler's idea is great.

You can come here with the excuse of paying back money, and I can come with the excuse of borrowing money!

Five thousand taels is not a big amount of money for Li Moran.

Just ask the steward next to you to pick up the banknote.

The remaining two housekeepers seemed to have found their most suitable excuses. One said that he wanted to borrow a hundred pieces of the best silk to make gifts for the concubines in the harem, and the other said that he wanted to borrow some grain and send it to other provinces for turnover. one time.

These two items require Li Momei to write the list herself.

With Li Momei's personal seal stamped on it, the goods can be taken out directly.

The four butlers left just as quickly as they came.

Li Momei didn't react for a moment, what happened?

Is it possible that these four princes are planning to attack him?

However, his relationship with so many officials in the court and the concubines in the harem was relatively strong. Anyone who dared to touch him would be directly surrounded by others.

They didn't dare to do anything to themselves before the winner of the crown prince position was determined?

Li Momei shook her head, thinking, and subconsciously walked to the study.

Fang Xing, who was in the study, was looking through the books on Li Momei's bookshelf.

There are quite a few books here that can be considered unique.

Maybe he can find what he wants in it.

do not care.

The number of chapters, the number of words, it’s hard to catch up once a sentence is written, it’s all completed.

Finished!

hahahahahahahaha!

Go to sleep!

good night, everyone!
