Chapter 186 Mutual Compensation

The Buddhist scriptures in her hand seemed to be a thousand times heavier, just like Yu Zheng's love, pressing into Jiang Shu's heart.

Jiang Shu looked up at Yu Zheng, her almond eyes flushed with watery light: "How can I be so worthy of my husband's love and respect."

Yu Zheng did much more for her than she imagined. But she did very little for Yu Zheng, which was really embarrassing.

Seeing her guilty look, Yu Zheng said half seriously and half jokingly: "Who asked you to save my life? I can't repay you for saving my life, so I can only repay you with my body." After speaking

, Yu Zheng took the Buddhist scriptures from her hand, put them down, hugged her in his arms and comforted her softly.

"I know you are good at settling accounts, but there are many accounts in this world that cannot be settled. For example, you and I both saved each other's lives, and we can only repay each other with our bodies."

Jiang Shu didn't know whether to laugh or cry after hearing this.

She understood that Yu Zheng didn't want her to feel guilty, so he said this on purpose. But Yu Zheng was right, there are some accounts in this world that cannot be settled.

Jiang Shu took a deep breath and didn't care anymore.

On this day, Jiang Shu knew a lot of things that he didn't know before, and every time he looked at Yu Zheng, his eyes were full of warmth and affection.

Yu Zheng didn't show it on his face, but his heart was as sweet as honey.

After taking a bath in the evening, Yu Zheng read to Jiang Shu as usual.

Jiang Shu lay in his arms, with her slender arms around Yu Zheng's strong waist, her heart surging.

Yu Zheng noticed that she was different today, but he didn't point it out. He pretended to be serious and read one article after another.

When he read the fifth article, Jiang Shu couldn't help it. She looked up and asked him in confusion: "Husband, don't you want to reward me today?"

Yu Zheng raised his eyebrows slightly, lowered his eyes and looked at her and said thoughtfully: "I want a big one after I finish reading."

His almond eyes flashed suspiciously, and Jiang Shu asked puzzledly: "What big one?"

"Well, like that day in the bathtub." Yu Zheng thought of the night before, and his eyes gradually became hot when he looked at Jiang Shu.

Jiang Shu suddenly realized and blushed.

Seeing her like this, Yu Zheng's throat rolled slightly, and he couldn't continue reading.

He knew that Jiang Shu was shy and liked private spaces, so he carried her to the bed and lowered the bed curtains.

Jiang Shu understood what Yu Zheng wanted, and blushed and took the initiative to kiss Yu Zheng.

From the eyebrows to the lips, along the Adam's apple, it stayed on the tight chest for a long time, and then continued to move, kissing every abdominal muscle of Yu Zheng, causing Yu Zheng to gasp.

"Shu'er." Yu Zheng couldn't stand such teasing, and turned over and became the host.

"Brother Zheng..." Jiang Shu called softly, wrapping her arms around Yu Zheng's neck.

Yu Zheng's face was filled with desire, his dark eyes were surging, and he bent down to kiss the seductive cherry lips.

"Patta, patta..." Raindrops suddenly fell outside the house.

Like a song, like music.

The raindrops changed from small to large, from sparse to dense, and fell with a rustling sound, completely covering the moans in the house.

Perhaps because they were both too passionate to vent, they kissed again and again until midnight. When Jiang Shu's last bit of strength was exhausted, Yu Zheng hugged her and fell asleep.

A night of heavy rain and a night of sound sleep.

Before dawn, Yu Zheng quietly lifted the quilt and got up, put on his court clothes and went outside to wash up.

Before leaving, Yu Zheng whispered to Shuanghua: "The princess was tired last night, you should move gently and don't disturb her."

Shuanghua was slightly surprised when she heard it.

The rain was still falling, Zhuiyun held an umbrella and took Yu Zheng to court.

Shuanghua closed the door and left, not daring to disturb Jiang Shu's sleep.

Jiang Shu, who was extremely tired, slept very deeply and didn't notice that Yu Zheng was gone.

When Yu Zheng came back from court, she was still sleeping.

Yu Zheng changed out of his wet court robe and boots, and gently lifted the bed curtain.

Seeing Jiang Shu's blushing face, Yu Zheng bent his lips, leaned forward and kissed her lips.

"Hmm..." Jiang Shu was awakened by the kiss, her almond eyes were misty.

Yu Zheng raised his hand to tuck the hair on her face behind her ears, and said softly: "Get up and have breakfast."

Jiang Shu frowned, and suddenly remembered something, and said in surprise: "Shouldn't you go to court today?"

Could it be that they stayed up too late last night and affected Yu Zheng's court? Then she would be a beauty who deserved to die.

Jiang Shu startled, and her mind was instantly clear.

"Yes, I'm going to court. I just came back from court." Yu Zheng picked her up and took clothes to her.

Jiang Shu breathed a sigh of relief when she heard it, quickly got dressed, got out of bed, washed up, and went to have breakfast with Yu Zheng.

The sky brightened and the rain gradually stopped.

After breakfast, Shuanghua asked Jiang Shu if she could meet the housekeeper today.

Jiang Shu nodded and asked Shuanghua to inform the housekeeper to meet in the side hall half an hour later.

Jiang Shu had just gotten up in a hurry and had not done her makeup yet. She quickly asked Chu Yu and Tan Yu to do her hair and put on makeup.

Yu Zheng was waiting on the side. Today was the first time Jiang Shu met the housekeeper, so he naturally had to accompany her.

Half an hour later, Yu Zheng and Jiang Shu appeared in the side hall, and everyone who had been waiting for a long time immediately greeted them respectfully.

"I have met the prince and princess."

After living in the prince's mansion for a few days, Jiang Shu had only seen the housekeeper among all the people in the hall.

Similarly, it was the first time for everyone to see Jiang Shu, and they couldn't help but look at him curiously.

There are twenty male and female stewards in the palace, who are in charge of various affairs in the palace.

After the two sat down at the head, the steward stepped forward and introduced himself and his duties.

The day before yesterday, Jiang Shu returned home. Although the steward met Jiang Shu once when preparing the return gift, he did not talk to her. Today is the official meeting.

"I am Mo Liang, the steward of the palace, and I pay my respects to the princess."

The others followed suit and introduced themselves one by one.

"I am Wu Qian, the accountant of the palace, and I pay my respects to the princess."

Jiang Shu listened and watched carefully, remembering everyone's name and face in his heart.

In the past, there was no mistress in the palace, and the housekeeper Mo Liang was in charge of the palace's accounts and warehouse keys, and occasionally presented them to Yu Zheng for review.

Now that Jiang Shu has married into the palace, these things will naturally be handed over to her.

"Here are the accounts of various places in the palace and the keys to the treasury. Please have a look, Princess." Mo Liang presented a thick stack of accounts and a bunch of keys.

Jiang Shu glanced at them and told Chu Yu to keep them.

Finally, she looked at Mo Liang and said, "It's raining today, so it's not suitable to check the treasury. I will check it with Manager Mo and Manager Wu after the weather clears up."

The past accounts of the palace, whether they were right or wrong, were not worth checking, and they could be re-made from now on.

But the treasury was different. She had to check and verify them clearly before she could take over. Otherwise, if there was a problem, it would be her responsibility.

"This..." Mo Liang hesitated and said, "The inflow and outflow of the warehouse are all recorded in detail. Princess can just check the record book. There is no need to be so troublesome."

The warehouse of the palace is full, and it takes a lot of effort to check it.

They know that Jiang Shu has been the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion for six years, and they also know that she is engaged in business. Therefore, the account books of the past few months have been made watertight, and Jiang Shu will not be able to find any mistakes.

But they never expected that Jiang Shu would directly ask to check the warehouse.

"It's very troublesome." Jiang Shu looked at Mo Liang calmly, pursed his lips and said, "But today, Manager Mo handed me the key to the treasury. If I don't check it clearly, who will be blamed if there is a mess in the future?"

Many chores in the palace, in the final analysis, all come down to the word money.

As long as the money is calculated clearly, the other things will not go wrong.

Otherwise, it will all be in vain.

Mo Liang was speechless.

Yu Zheng had never taken care of the general affairs of the mansion in detail, so he didn't know much about this, but he knew that Jiang Shu must have her reasons for insisting so much.

So he said in a deep voice: "Everything must be done according to the princess's orders. If you don't follow them, you will be punished for disobeying the princess' orders."

"Yes." After Yu Zheng said this, no one dared to object.

After Yu Zheng warned everyone, Jiang Shu said again: "I will take these account books back and look through them. From today on, each manager will re-make the books and check them every month."

After hearing this, everyone looked at each other and responded respectfully.
