Chapter 92 The Power He Gave
The prince is a person whose thoughts are really hard to guess.
Li Runrun had no reason to stay this time, so she left.
She felt that the prince was not very opposed to granting her father and brother good status. He might just be suspicious. Those in power are more or less suspicious.
Li Runrun was not going to mention it anymore. Seeing that the prince was so short of money and wanted to open a winery, he would consider her conditions.
Now that she mentioned it, there’s no need to rush.
The rest is to wait for feedback from the prince.
Li Ruanruan nodded, and Li Bai hurried over, pointing at her injured shoulder with concern.
Before it was dealt with, the prince called him in and he stayed there for so long. I don’t know if it was dealt with yet.
It seems that the concubine is in pain.
Li Runrun was so focused on her thoughts just now that she didn't pay attention to the injury on her shoulder and didn't feel any pain.
It's really strange. When I was reminded of this, it was as if my mind suddenly remembered the injury and it started to hurt.
The pain is unbearable.
Li Ruanruan covered her shoulder and said to Li Bai, "Go get a basin of hot water and treat the wound."
This time when treating the wound, Li Runrun felt that the pain was bearable, probably because she had let out a lot of anger after dealing with Nanny Song.
She also successfully proposed the winery.
Li Ruanruan was lying on the bed, and Li Bai was about to turn off the lights.
But she couldn't sleep, so she didn't turn off the lights.
She turned sideways and touched the warehouse key and account book beside her, and that strange feeling came over her again.
Li Runrun opened the account book and checked it one by one. It took her quite a while to finish.
There is nothing wrong with the account book, and I don't think anyone would dare to fool the prince.
It was very late at night and Li Bai had already fallen asleep.
Because she only had one maid, Libai, so Libai would sleep on the soft couch beside her when she kept watch at night.
In fact, she still lacks a maid.
Pear softened and turned off the light.
The room fell into darkness.
Li Ruanruan lay on the comfortable bed, grabbing the quilt and thinking of the hot kiss the prince had just given her.
She touched her lips lightly with her fingers and seemed to still taste the wine.
I couldn't help but think of other things, so I quickly closed my eyes and stopped thinking about it.
But when he closed his eyes, he saw the prince's body covered with sweat, so sweaty and strong.
Every time.
Li Runrun covered her face with the quilt for a long while before she secretly revealed a pair of eyes, looking at the window through which the faint light from outside could be seen.
The prince is sleeping next door. Is he asleep?
After drinking, you should be able to sleep well.
The night is so quiet.
Li Runrun opened her eyes and it was already daybreak. Li Bai was folding the quilt and putting it in the cabinet.
Li Ruanruan sat up by herself.
It was still too cold in winter. After washing with hot water, Li Runrun had breakfast.
Just because there are no mistakes in the account books doesn’t mean there are no problems.
Li Runrun asked Li Bai to call Haitang over.
Haitang arrived quickly and bowed when she saw her: "Greetings, my concubine."
"Haitang, were you in charge of the account books before?"
Haitang said, "I'm only responsible for recording. The prince is in charge."
Li Ruanruan nodded: "So that's how it is."
Then she flipped through the account book on the table and said, "I've checked all the accounts and there are no mistakes. But if we're going to hand it over, we still need to check everything in the East Courtyard one by one."
Li Ruanruan smiled softly, looking calm and without temper, yet already possessing the demeanor of a household manager: "Otherwise, if the prince suddenly asks for something, I won't know what to do. You know how difficult it is to appease him when he gets angry."
Haitang immediately said, "Yes, I'll call a few people and check it out with the maid."
"Okay, I'll wait for you then."
Li Ruanruan picked up the tea and took a sip.
Haitang went out to do some work. She opened the curtain and walked out of the ear room. Only then did she realize that she had underestimated Li Runrun before.
I didn't expect that she was not only literate, but also able to do accounting. Now, she seems to be a capable and good housekeeper.
Haitang quickly called for help, including a few old maids.
Li Runrun started checking them one by one.
Because Ye Yunchu has a lot of treasures, it takes a lot of effort to check them.
Ye Qiaoqiao originally came to find her at the Suzhou embroidery shop, but she couldn't take her eyes off seeing so many treasures, so she started to check them out together.
The more Li Runrun checked, the more shocked she became. The prince didn't look like he was short of money at all.
Any item taken out of the warehouse is worth a fortune.
How could he be short of money?
Could it be that he is not actually short of money, but just has a habit of hoarding wealth?
It seems that this is the only explanation that can make sense.
It's true that people born with wealth also suffer from rich diseases. In Li Runrun's opinion, this habit is quite good.
After all, who doesn't like money? She loves it too, but she is more generous than the prince.
Li Runrun respects his little quirks very much. Everyone has some little quirks, just like she likes to make money and he likes to hoard money.
In fact, they are quite compatible.
"Ruanruan, why are you blushing?"
Ye Qiaoqiao suddenly came over, looked at Li Runrun and asked curiously.
Li Ruanruan hurriedly fanned herself with the account book: "I am hot. I am hot because I am busy."
"Ah, are you hot? I'm still a little cold. There's no charcoal brazier here."
Then Ye Qiaoqiao touched Li Ruanruan's coat and said, "Your coat is nice. No wonder you feel hot."
"I like it. I have another one for you."
"I don't dare to ask for it. Is it right for me to ask for something that big brother gave you?"
Ye Qiaoqiao rubbed her neck, which was sore from checking things with her head down. "It's almost dark, are you done checking?"
"Almost."
Ye Qiaoqiao came over to take a look: "What's missing?"
Li Ruanruan whispered: "If you don't check, you won't know. Only after checking will you know that even the prince's courtyard can't control the servants."
"Really less?"
"If there are some insignificant things missing, the prince will not take them seriously at all, but for us, it is a lot."
"Ah? Well, since you've just taken charge of the East Court, if you start a serious investigation, you're bound to offend people. So, are you going to turn a blind eye?"
Li Ruanruan immediately fell down: "This kind of thing cannot be tolerated. If you indulge them for a little profit today, they will dare to climb over your head tomorrow."
"What if I offend people and indulge them? This housekeeper is really knowledgeable."
Ye Qiaoqiao frowned.
Li Ruanruan grabbed her hand and said, "I have my own way."
Then she called Li Bai: "Help me see if the prince has returned?"
Li Bai quickly came back and shook her head.
Li Ruanruan put down the brush in her hand and said, "Then let's do it quickly before the prince comes back. Haitang! Call everyone from the East Courtyard to the courtyard. I have something to tell them."
"yes."
Haitang did as she was told, and soon the courtyard was filled with servants from the East Courtyard.
The concubine made such a big noise today that everyone knew she had been checking the accounts all day.
Some are nervous and afraid out of guilt but trying to hold on, but more are nonchalant, as if they have done nothing wrong and are not afraid of ghosts knocking on their doors.
Li Bai moved a chair, and Li Runrun imitated the prince's behavior last time, sat down, and took a sip of tea with her head down.
