Chapter 395 Night King Steward
Ji Yuntang's eyes turned slightly and he stopped what he was doing.
"Where are the people from Prince Qi's Mansion?"
Chen Hu said: "They are outside the door. The prince said that they can only come in after you agree."
Ji Yuntang curled her red lips slightly, stood up and said: "Please invite them to the front yard. These are the fortune-giving boys of this princess."
Chen Hu was confused. He knew that King Qi and Ji Yuntang had always been at odds with each other. How could he be her money-bringing boy?
But their princess must have her reasons for saying so, so Chen Hu immediately went downstairs to make arrangements!
He made the arrangements very carefully, serving all kinds of fruits, snacks and fragrant tea, which scared the guards of Prince Qi's mansion very much.
The two men thought that this was their last meal before execution and they didn't even dare to drink a sip of water.
When Ji Yuntang came over, he saw them standing there with nervous expressions on their faces, their legs shaking uncontrollably, and sweat dripping down their foreheads like rain.
She glanced at Chen Hu and asked in confusion: "Did you scare them?"
Chen Hu shook his head repeatedly, "No, I just asked the maid to entertain them well, who knew they would be like this."
"Princess, they are too timid. Why would the King of Qi arrange such a cowardly guard to come to you?"
Ji Yuntang glared at him as a warning, "Don't talk to my princess's fortune boy like that."
After she finished speaking, she put on a smile and walked up to the two of them.
"You two, His Royal Highness Prince Qi sent you here, but is it because of Yu Yanshuang?"
One of the black-clad guards responded, "Yes, yes, yes. His Royal Highness Prince Qi sent two of his men to Prince Ye's mansion to get the Jade Face Cream."
Another black-clad guard quickly corrected him, "What do you mean by take? You mean buy. His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi gave us two hundred thousand taels of silver!"
Ji Yuntang's eyes lit up when he heard this!
For the first time, she realized that Luo Feizhou could be so trustworthy.
The two guards took out two hundred thousand taels of silver notes from their pockets, handed them to Ji Yuntang, and said carefully:
"Princess Ye, everything His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi gave us is here. He also asked us to bring you a message."
"Third sister-in-law, I will remember the shame of today, and I will repay you a hundredfold when I have the chance."
After saying this, the guard didn't even dare to breathe, for fear that Ji Yuntang would kill him on the spot.
Ji Yuntang pulled his lips indifferently, "Oh, what do I think this princess is!"
"Please help me tell His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi that anyone with bad intentions will be punished by my sister-in-law!"
The two men didn't dare to say a word, and Ji Yuntang didn't care. She took out a bottle of ointment from her arms and handed it to the guard, and tore up the IOU for 100,000 taels of silver in public!
"Now this princess and your highness the Prince of Qi are even!"
After the guards left, Ji Yuntang went to the West Garden immediately and handed over two hundred thousand taels of silver to Luo Junhe.
"Ah He, this is the spiritual compensation sent to you by the King of Qi. Please accept it!"
Luo Junhe was stunned. Looking at the large banknotes in his arms, a hint of suspicion flashed in his deep peach blossom eyes.
"Atang, don't lie to me. Why would the King of Qi give me money for no reason?"
"This must be another time you used your cleverness to earn money from him, right?"
Ji Yuntang looked at him teasingly, "I really can't hide anything from you."
"I said before that I would make those who bully you pay the price."
"Luo Feizhou has been on good terms with you over the years, but ever since you became paralyzed, he has been stabbing you in the back and making fun of you."
"Two hundred thousand taels of silver is not a lot. Just think of it as a lesson for him. As a prince, you may not need much silver now, but you will need it in the future. Just keep it!"
Luo Junhe's eyes were soft and the corners of his lips rose unconsciously.
"Ah Tang, I read in a book that any money a husband earns outside will be handed over to the mistress of the mansion, who will manage the expenses and account books of the entire mansion."
"How come when it comes to me, you are the one giving me money and asking me to be the manager?"
Speaking of this, Luo Junhe felt very surprised.
Ever since he was able to get out of bed and sit in a wheelchair, Ji Yuntang gave him all the account books and housekeeping power in the mansion in order to prevent him from being too bored.
He was in charge of the household, arranging the purchase of supplies, distributing salaries to servants, and taking care of all matters in the mansion.
And what about Ji Yuntang himself?
They go out in public to make money, do business, open shops, and practice medicine.
Luo Junhe originally thought that after years of marching and fighting, it would be difficult for him to adapt to the household arrangements at the rear, but he did not expect that he would be able to get the hang of it within three days.
Now, after a month and a half, he has become completely adept at managing the household.
Even in his spare time, he could help Ji Yuntang compare and check the purchase orders and supply orders of Wanzhuanglou and the barbecue restaurant, check the expenses and profits through the account books, and then put forward his suggestions for improvement.
Without caring about the family, he would not know how expensive firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea are, nor would he know how great the needs of the entire palace are and how many trivial matters there are.
There are a total of seventy-three people inside and outside the Night King's Mansion, but it is quite difficult to manage them.
Luo Junhe not only has to arrange everyone's daily duties, but also has to formulate a series of reward and punishment systems to ensure that they are efficient in their work and loyal to the Night Palace.
In addition, there is the purchase, leasing, fiefdom taxes and the management of villas and farms.
Luo Junhe has to learn to do all of these.
In order to reduce the burden on Ji Yuntang, he spent the whole day in the study, and whenever he had nothing to do, he would seek advice from Wang Sheng and Yao Niang on how to manage the household.
After he finished learning, he finally understood the difficulties of women in the inner house.
It is said that men go out early and come back late, and it is not easy for them to make money. As a wife, you should understand and support her.
But Luo Junhe feels that compared to the hardship of making money, it is actually more difficult to run a household frugally.
The life of a mistress at home is not necessarily much easier than that of her husband outside.
Managing the harem was just the basics; sometimes they even needed to serve their parents-in-law, manage concubines, and personally worry about their children's studies and education.
Compared to these, Luo Junhe felt that he was much more relaxed!
After all, the Night Prince’s Mansion doesn’t have to serve his parents-in-law, and he has no offspring.
Luo Junhe finally put the banknote away, and Ji Yuntang teased him.
"That's right. Madam, you earn money for your husband to spend, right?"
She leaned over and gave Luo Junhe a quick kiss on his handsome face.
"You just need to be beautiful!"
Luo Junhe looked at her and smiled helplessly.
Only Ji Yuntang dared to say this. If the dignitaries in the capital knew about this, they would probably talk about him like this behind his back.
[His Royal Highness the Prince of War is kept as a canary in the mansion by the Princess. ]
[His Royal Highness the War King has a soft body and is easily knocked down, while the Night King's Concubine is a beautiful woman hidden in a golden house. ]
[His Highness the King of War transformed into a pretty boy, voluntarily withdrew from the battlefield, and was trapped in the backyard for love. 】
