Chapter 9 Take off the prince's pants?
Xie Yao raised her hands to cover her face, deciding to skip this moment, and said in a muffled voice: "Make sure to take care of the female doctor, and don't let any of this leak out!"
"Don't worry, Princess. I have already explained everything."
Xie Yao's heart suddenly settled down. She was relieved that Zhu Xin could do the job.
Others didn't know the inside story, but Zhu Xin and Zhu Qing knew it. Zhu Xin hesitated for a moment before asking in a low voice, "Crown Princess, what are you going to do about this?"
Xie Yao pondered for a long time, and finally said: "...There is no other way."
She couldn't possibly pull down the Crown Prince's pants, could she?
That's really... really...
"Crown Princess." Zhu Qing walked in from outside, his face slightly gloomy, and whispered, "Hongdou is here."
Red beans, her dowry.
But it was the person planted by the mother and daughter.
Xie Yao looked gloomy and said, "Bring him in."
Hongdou timidly followed Zhuqing into the door.
She was very nervous.
For no reason...what does the Crown Princess want to see her for?
And I'm only looking for her.
"I pay my respects to the Crown Princess." Hongdou knelt down and saluted respectfully, not daring to look up.
Xie Yao raised her eyes and looked over. "Hongdou, are your mother and younger brother okay?"
Hongdou's heart was filled with alarm bells, "Thank you for your concern, Princess. Everything is fine."
"Your younger brother is eight years old this year." Xie Yao said slowly, "I heard that he is very smart and has a photographic memory?"
Hongdou suddenly raised her eyes, her expression changed slightly, and her eyes were full of vigilance, "What does the Crown Princess want to do?" He investigated her family so thoroughly and told her all of it in front of her...
He comes with bad intentions!
Xie Yao looked at Hongdou calmly and was not in a hurry to speak.
Hongdou's heart beat like a drum when she saw those calm eyes. What did the Crown Princess mean?
Did he discover something? Was he threatening her?
Hongdou was already feeling guilty, so she couldn't help but overthinking at this moment. She knelt on the ground, with big beads of sweat rolling down her forehead.
There was no reply for a long time. The whole house was terribly quiet and time seemed to be very long...
"Crown Princess..."
Hongdou finally couldn't help but speak out.
Xie Yao chuckled and interrupted her, "If your brother can get a bond of release and find a teacher to study hard, he may not be hopeless in the future."
Hongdou suddenly raised her eyes, her eyes full of shock.
"What do you think?" Xie Yao raised her eyebrows slightly, feeling very confident.
It wasn't the first time she had talked about this with Anko, and she had more advantages in this life.
In her previous life, her dowry and body indentures were in Madam Xie's hands. In this life, they were in her hands, making it easier for her to control them.
Hongdou's heart sank completely. What else did she not understand at this point? The Crown Princess must know everything.
"I am willing to serve the Crown Princess." Hongdou bit her lower lip and made a quick decision, "Please save my mother and brother, Crown Princess."
Xie Yao smiled, "Get up, I know you are a smart person."
Hongdou did not hesitate any longer and said, "Madam has ordered me to monitor the Crown Princess and to inform her if there is any news. As far as I know, Madam is not the only one looking for me, but who else... I don't know."
After a pause, Hongdou continued, "On the day when the Crown Princess got married, Madam gave me a packet of medicine."
Xie Yao's face darkened.
She knew that Mrs. Xie had arranged more than one person.
But medicine?
"What medicine?" Zhu Qing's face changed drastically, and he looked at Hong Dou with wariness in his eyes.
Hongdou immediately said, "The medicine is placed on my pillow. I haven't touched it yet. Please understand, Princess!"
Xie Yao gave Zhu Xin a look, and Zhu Xin stepped forward to help Hong Dou up, and then handed another object to Zhu Xin, "The Crown Princess naturally trusts you."
Hongdou lowered her eyes and saw that what Zhuxin handed her was her brother's indenture.
She immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Xie Yao, "Thank you, Crown Princess! Thank you, Crown Princess! I am willing to go through fire and water for you."
"Why do I want you to go through fire and water?" Xie Yao chuckled, "Don't think too much, just do what you should do on a daily basis. I will find you when I need you."
"As long as you are obedient, I can personally find a famous teacher for your brother."
Hongdou's heart dropped completely, and she was touched. She looked at Xie Yao with great gratitude and said respectfully, "Yes! Thank you, Crown Princess. I will listen to you."
"Zhuqing, send Hongdou out."
Zhuqing responded yes and sent Hongdou out of the inner room.
"Crown Princess." Zhu Xin asked, "You are kind-hearted. You gave the indenture to Hongdou right now. What if she regrets it?"
"She won't." If she hadn't been so sure, she wouldn't have been so generous.
Besides, Hongdou’s younger brother was indeed smart. Two years later in his previous life, he became famous in the capital and was named a child prodigy.
She didn't mind selling it well, and besides... the child prodigy had other uses for her.
When she came back not long after, she had a paper bag in her hand, "Princess, this is the medicine that Madam Xie gave to Hongdou."
Xie Yao took a look and said, "I'll quietly find a doctor to ask tomorrow."
It’s definitely not a good thing.
But you need to ask a doctor to find out what it is specifically.
The next day, when Xie Yao woke up, the pain in her waist was gone and the blood clots had dissolved, but there was still a little bruise on her waist, which was particularly conspicuous against her snow-white skin.
Zhu Xin applied medicine on Xie Yao's waist, and then helped her get up. While Xie Yao was getting dressed, she said, "Go and ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come over."
A rich and exquisite breakfast was prepared in the main courtyard.
As soon as Xiao Ji entered the room, his eyes fell on Xie Yao's waist, "Are you feeling better?"
"Thanks to Your Highness, the pain is gone now." Xie Yao thanked him warmly.
The couple sat down to eat, and Xie Yaocai said: "Your Highness, I checked the account books in the mansion recently and found some unreasonable
There is no mistress in the Prince’s Mansion. Although Nanny Xu is trusted by the Prince, she is not the master after all.
Although she grew up under the care of her stepmother, she learned a lot of housekeeping and accounting skills from her grandmother.
"I have been looking at the account books these days and found that the money withdrawn from the account office is not withdrawn on demand, but is withdrawn in advance at the beginning of the month."
The prince frowned slightly, "It is true."
"I think we should still follow the rules. There are too many hidden dangers in doing this..."
Xiao Ji looked at Xie Yao in surprise, "Oh?"
Xie Yao whispered, "Your Highness, you don't know that my maternal grandparents were in business. My mother died early, and my grandmother loved me so much that she gave me a shop to practice in since I was young. Zhu Xin would occasionally go out to inspect these shops for me."
"When meeting with the steward of the mansion the day before yesterday, Zhu Xin said that Steward Ding, who was in charge of the kitchen, looked familiar. She thought about it for two days before she was sure that she had seen him in the Caijin gambling house before."
Xie Yao added: "The cloth shop opposite the Caijin gambling house is the shop owned by my grandmother."
Running a gambling house... is always not decent.
Of course, she hadn't really seen it. All of this was something that happened in her previous life, but it happened half a year later.
The Crown Prince was severely punished by His Majesty for this, and he even considered deposing him. She heard it from Song Wenbo and the other person afterwards, and only knew that the offender's surname was Ding, so she asked Zhuxin to find out last time.
Naturally, Zhuxin found out about the goings in and out of the gambling house in the past few days.
Xie Yujiao was also reborn, and she was the Crown Princess in her previous life. Now she must resolve the hidden dangers in the Crown Prince's Mansion as soon as possible.
Otherwise it would be a spear pointing towards the Prince’s Palace!
After all, what the steward did was not just gambling...
Xiao Ji's face had already darkened, and a frost flashed in his eyes, "I will order a thorough investigation of this matter."
"As for the internal affairs of the palace, you are the Crown Princess, and everything is up to you. There is no need to ask me specifically. As for this Steward Ding... don't alert him for the time being."
Xie Yao smiled brightly, "Okay! Your Highness, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of our family."
Xiao Ji: “…”
He paused slightly, coughed lightly, stood up and left.
Xie Yao looked at Xiao Ji's leaving back, a thought flashing through her eyes, the prince is really a good person.
If possible, she also wanted to help the prince avoid death in two years.
After all, it’s better for the child to have a father.
Although she doesn't have any children yet...
As soon as Xiao Ji left the main courtyard, he said to Si Nan, his personal attendant, "Investigate the managers in the mansion immediately, starting with those with the surname Ding."
