These four maids are not only good-looking, but also very well-educated when they walk and talk.

Shangguan Ruoli guessed that these four people were either ladies from wealthy families or skinny horses.

But just after arriving here, Shangguan Ruoli didn't have time to spare, so he wanted to settle down first.

Half of Qin Sejuli's servants came, including Shangguan Ruoli's personal maid Sassoon, Zhuyue, and four second-class maids. Two of Da Lingyao's two personal maids, four second-class maids, and ten more

There were six people in total including the maid, the mother-in-law, the kitchen steward and the cook.

In addition, those who can enter the backyard to serve include Dongming Ziyu's personal eunuchs Mo Wen and Mo Xiang, as well as several other servants under the age of ten.

The place here is small, and these servants are enough.

After busy for a long time and settling down, Sassoon came in and reported: "Princess, the housekeeper wants to see you."

Shangguan Ruoli narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Let him come in."

He put Ling Yao on the soft couch and let her play by herself. After several days, although Ling Yao was still very clinging to Shangguan Ruoli, she was not as inseparable as she had been a few days ago.

The butler was brought in by Sassoon. He was an elegant and handsome man in his thirties.

He has a tall and slender figure, and looks steady and elegant in a navy blue muslin robe.

Without being humble or arrogant, he lifted up his robe and knelt down to salute Shangguan Ruoli, "I pay my respects to the princess!"

This steward was not a domestic slave, but was originally an aide of Dongming Ziyu, named Zuo Ivy. Because the original steward of Prince Xuan's Mansion stayed in the capital, Dongming Ziyu chose him to be the steward of Prince Xuan's Mansion.

So he calls himself a subordinate, not a slave.

Shangguan Ruoli looked at him carefully and said calmly: "Butler Zuo, please forgive me."

Zuo Ivy stood up, stood with lowered eyes, and said respectfully: "Princess, do you think there is anything wrong? Are the servants in the backyard still enough? Do you need to add a few more maids and women temporarily found from the local area?"

When the masters come, they make the final decision on the arrangements for the servants in the house, especially in the backyard. The housekeeper is a smart person, so naturally he will not make the decision without authorization.

Although the position of housekeeper may seem inconspicuous and has no official position, the housekeeper is responsible for all matters in the house, human relationships, and some of the outside industry.

Therefore, the rights and abilities required by the housekeeper are not small, and the ability of the housekeeper to observe words and emotions is even stronger.

Of course, Shangguan Ruoli would not use someone who did not know the details. He said calmly: "The people I brought from the capital are enough. Besides, I think the few maids you found from the local area don't look like they are working."

The way you look after someone."

Butler Zuo's expression changed slightly, with a look of fear on his face, and he hurriedly said: "Those maids are all young ladies from several local officials' families. They asked a few people to come over to help temporarily, saying that they are the prince and princess. If there are enough people,

You can send it back if you use it. I'm new here, so it's hard to refute their good intentions. Besides, the mansion really needs people to work, so I have to wait for the prince and princess to come before making a decision."

The amount of information in this, haha!

Shangguan Ruoli faintly raised the corners of his lips and said, "I only want servants with death contracts here."

Butler Zuo said hurriedly: "I understand."

Shangguan Ruoli gave him a cold look, "You are the steward of Prince Xuan's Mansion, you should be able to deal with those who have ulterior motives."

The implication is that he is incapable.

However, the person Dongming Ziyu picked should not be much different. But it would be unethical to cause trouble for her.

Butler Zuo broke out in a cold sweat, knelt down and kowtowed, begging for mercy: "The princess is atoneing for her sins, I am so scared."

He is not a dead contract, nor is he even a living contract. Does the princess mean that she does not trust him?

Everyone knows that the princess is the person who is dear to the prince's heart. Offending the princess will have much more serious consequences than offending the prince.

At this time, Dongming Ziyu came in carrying a bird cage with a colorful parrot inside.

Ling Yao saw the parrot at a glance, her eyes suddenly lit up, she quickly got off the bed, ran over happily, and shouted: "Parrot! It's the same as brother An Ning's parrot!"

Dongming Ziyu smiled and handed the parrot cage to Ling Yao, "Go and play, this parrot will be yours from now on."

The colorful parrot immediately combed its feathers and said: "Greetings to you, greetings to you!"

"Thank you, father!" Ling Yao happily took the parrot, "I want to teach her to recite poetry!"

While talking, he took the parrot to play.

Only then did Dongming Ziyu suppress his smile, glanced at Housekeeper Zuo who was kneeling on the ground, then sat down next to Shangguan Ruoli, held her hand, and said dotingly: "Don't blame him, if I don't

Taking this opportunity to express my attitude, those people thought that this king was easy to handle when he first arrived."

Shangguan Ruoli curled his lips, "Have you failed to handle the officials of these two counties? Or do they regard you as one of their own? Did you send your daughter over before you arrived?"

Dongming Ziyu looked at Butler Zuo and motioned for him to explain.

Butler Zuo coughed slightly and explained awkwardly: "There are two situations. Not all the officials in the fiefdom are from the prince. Those officials who think that the prince is their own also think that the prince should take in his daughter so that he can be with the prince.

The fiefdom will take hold faster."

In the fiefdom, King Xuan was the emperor of the land, which was similar to the emperor of Dongming.

Shangguan Ruoli glanced at Dongming Ziyu and said calmly: "Does the prince want to accept them?"

Dongming Ziyu felt a chill on the back of his head, but he didn't dare to make his wife angry, so he hurriedly said: "My king, I want to use these four people as a raft."

After saying that, he looked at Butler Zuo and ordered in a cold voice: "Send them back and tell them that the servants serving in this king's backyard are all under death contracts. If they are willing to sell their daughters, these women will be taken away."

The soldiers and soldiers of the palace who are married to wives should be married to each other, and the soldiers and soldiers who have followed me to this barren land should have a woman to take care of them."

Butler Zuo hurriedly agreed and left.

Shangguan Ruoli glanced at Dongming Ziyu coldly, "If I hadn't noticed those four beauties, would you have just accepted them?"

Seeing her taste, Dongming Ziyu was happy, but he still said without changing his expression: "I, the king, can't look down on many noble girls in the capital, but how can he look down on a firewood girl from this barren land?"

Shangguan Ruoli raised his eyebrows, "You mean, if someone likes you, you'll just give up?"

Dongming Ziyu nodded politely, but wisely said before Shangguan Ruoli got angry: "But I only like Li'er, and with Li'er here to compete with me, I can no longer look down on other women!"

"Humph! Smooth talk!" Shangguan Ruoli rolled his eyes at him fiercely, but he couldn't hide the smile on his lips.

At this time, Mo Wen reported outside: "The prince, the princess, the governors of Yue County and Fan County, and the biggest squire here are here to ask for an audience."

Shangguan Ruoli looked at Dongming Ziyu, "Where are these people from?"
Chapter completed!
