That's what it says.

Uncle Rong muttered: "But the biggest problem now is how to convince the four tribes in Mobei and how to make His Highness's princess mansion stable in Mobei. If it were so simple, the emperor would not let the eldest princess stay by the Zadagai River in Monan

Build a mansion.

It’s not because of the distrust of the imperial court in Mobei that the eldest princess who married far away from Mobei could only build a mansion in Monan."

"No wonder the empress said that you worry too much about everything and never dare to let go."

The fourth princess laughed and yelled, her bright eyes reflecting colorful colors under the lights of the camp.

Her slender hand brushed Uncle Rong's chin and looked at it carefully.

"My good brother-in-law, how can the situation in southern and northern Mobei be comparable to that of twenty or thirty years ago? Nowadays, Moxi is in chaos, and Junggar is eyeing Mobei; the Eros are also eyeing Mobei, and they have no other choice.

Choice. Not to mention the eldest princess’s management in the desert in recent years, the soldiers in the eldest princess’s mansion, and the Mongolian warriors in Monan are also our confidence.”

The fingers of the Fourth Princess are very thin and soft. It is very confusing that such a slender hand is not dry and bony.

The soft pads of her fingers slid down from the base of his ears to his chin.

Gently, furry, itchy.

Uncle Rong grabbed the mischievous hand and felt like he was being teased.

No,

Not a feeling.

He was indeed being teased by a woman who was once the most favored little princess in the palace.

"Don't be ridiculous."

"Yes, that's the look. Hui'er likes the look in her brother-in-law's eyes. It's very similar to the look in her father's eyes when he's angry." The fourth princess chuckled softly, with a little bit of coquettishness in her eyes. Her thin lips were slightly pursed, looking at her pink and tender eyes.

A fresh scent of tea came out of his little mouth. "Brother-in-law, can you endure the discomfort? If you are uncomfortable, just stay in Huier's camp tonight."

As she spoke, she shook her waist provocatively.

This goblin.

Uncle Rong knew he couldn't go on like this, and stood up suddenly. He was also worried that the fourth princess would fall, so he slightly protected her waist with one hand. However, he didn't expect that the girl was hugging her very tightly, as if she was coiled on his abdomen.

"Your Highness, please respect yourself, I am a humble minister..."

"Brother-in-law is actually very happy. He is having fun in his heart." The fourth princess suddenly jumped down and reached for Uncle Rong with one hand.

Brother Rong was so frightened that he quickly shrank back.

"The empress never misjudges a person, just like she did when she misjudged the prince." The fourth princess smiled proudly. "This is the first time Hui'er was held by a man today, and it feels good."

"..."

Uncle Rong stretched out his hand, wanting to say something. However, he saw that the fourth princess had turned and left. Under the lights of the camp, a slender figure slowly entered the light, and finally disappeared at the gate of the princess camp.

Uncle Rong looked down and cursed secretly in his heart: You are not living up to expectations, have you never seen a woman?

The wind in the grassland is sharper than elsewhere, and you can feel the cold wind as sharp as a knife.

The nights outside the Great Wall are cold, and the nights in the Huitengxile Alpine Grassland are even colder.

However, during this time, the night in Shenjing was extremely hot and muggy.

Baochai, who couldn't bear the boredom, had already told Qin Keqing and Wang Xifeng that she had moved to Yixia Pavilion. She was uneasy and lonely, so she invited Lin Daiyu to accompany her.

At night, leaning against the clouds on the roof of the pavilion, the two women were interested in looking at the stars. They could also see the bright moon in the sky reflected in the stream and lake not far from the pavilion.

Lin Daiyu still had something on her mind, so she looked to the northwest in silence.

Xue Baochai swam over with one hand, looking for her slim waist. "You're such a pretty girl, how long have you been thinking about that bad guy?"

"I know you don't have good intentions." Lin Daiyu hid in a hurry and said with a crimson face: "My sister left after seeing that person, and she became depressed within a few days."

"What's wrong with me? I feel so at ease now that I have my wife with me in the pavilion."

"You are so sulky that you have nowhere to vent your anger. Naturally you are impatient." Daiyu blushed and snorted, "I will go back to the big garden tomorrow. It's better to have fun with Yun Yatou and the others than to let you touch me here.

"

"Zi'er looks really beautiful when she's angry. It's a pity that that person went to Mobei and couldn't see our Mei'er's red face."

"Bah... ivory cannot come out of a dog's mouth."

"Are you really annoyed?" Xue Baochai took Daiyu, who was sulking, and said softly: "You can go to the big garden, but that girl Yun never stops her mouth. Don't listen to girl Yun's words and be annoyed again.

For the last few days, you might as well stay here with me."

"I'm looking for my second sister to play with them." Lin Daiyu was like a naughty little daughter-in-law at the moment.

It's strange that Xue Baochai can hold her.

Baochai said: "Er Mu'er couldn't hold back a word for a long time, the third girl is also busy now, and the fourth girl is young and cold-tempered. Who will you go to play with? The poetry club in the garden is not very popular now, and we can't be presumptuous.

It’s not allowed to have fun, even hold banquets and listen to plays. Where is the fun?”

Because the old concubine passed away and the palace issued a decree, these people had to behave to some extent.

The singing troupe arranged by Rongguo Mansion in Lixiangyuan was dispersed, and the girls were all assigned to work as maids for various masters.

Lin Daiyu fell silent. Looking at the night, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. A few days ago, she had focused all her thoughts on Brother Rong, but when Brother Rong left, she looked back and saw that the Grand View Garden had quietly changed.

Aunt Xue moved out of the garden. Baochai doesn't go to live in the garden much anymore. Grandma Zhu, the organizer of the poetry club, has been busy lately and has no intention of re-opening the poetry club. The third girl has become inexplicably angry recently.

I heard that there were several troubles in the west.

Daiyu murmured in a low voice: "I'm going to play with Miss Miaoyu. If nothing happens, I'll go home."

"Miss Miaoyu is so focused on Yihong Courtyard that she has no time to entertain you. Are you really willing to go back to the Lin family?" Baochai chuckled softly, "When Brother Rong comes back next year, our Li'er will also be in grade.

Already? I still want to take advantage of the time to teach Yaner..."

"Which one should you teach?" Lin Daiyu naturally knew what this girl was talking about, and hummed with a red face. "When he comes, he will teach you."

"Zhao'er has such a temper, if he takes the initiative to teach me, I'm afraid I'll have to turn my good-looking Liang'er into an old girl." Xue Baochai snickered.

Lin Daiyu's expression changed, and she stared at Baochai with a frown.

Needless to say, this time I was really angry.

Xue Baochai didn't care, and said to himself: "Zi'er really wants to do a good thing, the Lin family and the west side are not troublesome. There are many girls around that person, how can he have too much leisure to coax this and that? He has too much

If you have too much, you will gradually not know how to cherish it. Only when you relax can you hold a man. Who likes someone who keeps a straight face every day?"

At night in Shenjing, it’s cool to wait until it’s completely dark.

The wind on the roof of the attic blew in from the forest opposite and flew over the wide stream, ripples layer by layer. The girls who were waiting to be put on the roof felt a little cooler.

After they had been playing around for a while, they started talking about things in the Grand View Garden.

"Life is not easy in the west now. Although Feng girl was asked to take charge of things, she was picky and turned a blind eye and started to be a Bodhisattva. Grandma Zhu is a Bodhisattva. Unless it is important, she is not willing to say a few words.

"

"The west side consumes too much, with more going out and less coming in. It's because they have a headache." Lin Daiyu also said quietly. In fact, everyone knows these problems. It's just that no one dares to come up with a solution. Qi'er glanced at it.

Baochai took a look and said: "Didn't the old lady and the second wife also entrust you with the housekeeping? How can you still control the money of Xifu?"

"If Feng girl doesn't use her real skills, Sister-in-law Zhu will just be a spectator. Those sisters, wives, and even the maids and grandmothers around them feel that no matter how much they reduce, their money will never be lacking. No one is really taking care of things, so where can I be?"

Well, don’t say anything else.”

Housekeepers also have difficulties.

The biggest difficulty is that the West's income is too little. Now, because there are several kilns in the east, as well as the income from Heishan Village and Zhuangzi outside Beijing, the west is even more stretched.

I am afraid of comparison in everything.

Even if it is a family, seeing that their brothers are rich, they will inevitably feel unwilling to lag behind. In terms of expenses, they have not decreased at all, but have increased.

Such a big family in the west will end up running into more and more losses.

"The money from the kilns in the east has not been put into the treasury. There is not much difference between the two prefectures except that the west has more mouths to eat. Why is it getting worse day by day?"

"The third girl asked the same question." Xue Baochai smiled helplessly, "You only see the outside, but you don't know the big difference inside. There are more villagers in Heishan Village in the west than in the east, but as a result, the money coming there every year is more than that in the east.

There are a lot less. The few villages outside the city are even more confused now."

"How to say?"

"In the past, Feng Yatou sent people to collect rent in the village outside the city. Although the village master was a little greedy, he didn't dare to make it too obvious. Now it is the second brother Lian who is in charge. Although he checked for a while earlier and collected some money,

Half of them went into brother Lian's private house. I'm afraid the summer rent this time will be much less."

Mr. Lian is a master who is short of money.

Lin Daiyu said politely: "Let Xibian imitate Brother Rong and make a copy of it, and copy it from house to house. Are you afraid that the government will have no money?"

"These words actually came from Qi'er's mouth." Xue Baochai laughed.

It made Daiyu snort again.

Baochai explained: "The west is different from the east. If you want to copy someone's money in the west, you have to look at the eyes of several wives. Now that there is a queen in the West House, you have to maintain the dignity of the family outside. The matter of copying people's money has spread to the palace.

Regardless of whether it's good or bad, some people are making fun of it. I can't believe it's hurting the queen's face."
