After hearing this, Yuan'er was curious again. Looking at Ning Dai's arrogant look, she couldn't help but ask: "Why do you want to borrow a bodyguard for me, young lady? In this mansion..." Aren't there a lot of bodyguards?

The rest of the words were all looked back by Ning Dai's eyes.

Yuan'er shut her mouth and looked cute.

Ning Dai stared at Yuan'er for a while, then slowly looked away. Although the visual attack was over, there was still a verbal one.

"Yuan'er, everyone came here on the same day, how can you achieve such a high level of acceptance? How did you do it?"

"Ah?" In one sentence, Yuan'er understood her own name and could not understand any other words.

Ning Dai looked at her stupid look and waved her hand, refusing to continue the topic: "Anyway, just tell the prince what I said."

"Yes, miss."

Ning Dai explained the matter again, making sure that Yuan'er had written down everything and had not forgotten it.

By the time the master and servant finished talking, it was time for lunch.

The old steward whom she had met yesterday appeared in front of Ning Dai and asked her whether she wanted to have lunch in her yard or go to the hall.

Ning Dai thought about it, and the old steward probably meant to ask her whether she wanted to eat alone or with the sick Xishi.

Then she decisively chose to go to the dining room to have dinner.

She still had a few questions about treasure hunting that she wanted to discuss with him.

The old steward got it right and went down to prepare.

Ning Dai also turned around and told Yuan'er to wait until she had finished eating and rested before returning to the Marquis's residence.

But what Ningdai didn't expect was that she guessed wrong.

The dining room in the palace was quite large, with a large round table and richer dishes, but she was the only one eating, and the sick Xishi Yuanzhao did not even show up.

Going against the grain?

In addition to the few maids serving in the dining room, the old steward was also standing by. Ning Dai asked the old steward about Xi Shi's progress in a casual manner.

The old steward told the story with a sad face. It turned out that the sick Xishi was in poor health again. It was said that she almost fainted in the study room. The imperial doctor arrived in time. Now that she had taken medicine, she fell asleep not long ago, so lunch was

No longer useful.

Ning Dai chewed her rice and counted the time. Wasn't it what happened after she left the study?

She innocently thought that it had nothing to do with her. He was seeking death like this, and she didn't care about him at all at that time. Although she was very angry, she always thought in her heart that he was a sick beauty. In all aspects,

It's all under control now.

The old steward was still talking: "When the prince rested, he also told the slave not to talk to the princess..."

Then why did you say it?

At this time, several young men came in silently carrying several small wooden boxes, and then piled the wooden boxes next to the door. The old steward stopped what he was saying and pointed to the boxes next to the door.

: "Your Majesty has told me that from now on, the Princess will be in charge of all matters related to the transfer of funds in the palace. These are the various account books of the past few years."

Ning Dai: "..." I suddenly wanted to ask the old steward, how many years have it been in recent years? How many big boxes are needed to hold the large number of account books? Bing Xishi's family is quite rich.

But whether the family fortune is abundant or not is not something Ning Dai cares about at all.

She was just looking for her cell phone, not to settle a score.

Looking at the boxes again, Ning Dai thought for a while and said: "Help me carry it to my yard later." Any place where things can be stored must not be missed, just in case the mobile phone is in these boxes.

In one of them.

After finishing her instructions, Ning Dai speeded up her meal.

After finishing the meal, Ning Dai and the boys carrying the boxes went back to her yard in a grand manner.

After returning, Ning Dai gave Yuan'er a few more words and asked Yuan'er to go back to the Hou Mansion.

As for Ning Dai herself, she started her first wave of treasure hunting with those few boxes.

The result was nothing.

The boxes contained neatly stacked account books and nothing else.

When Ning Dai was disappointed, the old steward came again.

At this time, of course, it was impossible to ask her where to have dinner, and as soon as the old steward came in, Ning Dai saw that he was not empty-handed, but also holding a pile of scrolls in his hand.

The old steward saw the ceremony with Ning Dai, then cut to the chase and handed over the thing in his hand: "Princess, these are the drawings of the mansion and various courtyards. The prince said that you might need them, so he asked the old slave to bring them to you."

"???" Ning Dai stepped forward, picked up a volume, opened it and read it.

It's really the architectural drawings of the mansion.

This sick Xishi... is this really too conceited, or is he using this to humiliate her?

No matter what it is, if he makes a move, she will take it.

"Put it down." Ning Dai pointed to the table and asked the old steward to pile them all on the table.

When the old steward put down the drawings, Ning Dai asked the old steward: "Does your prince have anything else he wants to give me?"

The old steward said respectfully: "I have nothing more to say to the princess at the moment."

Ning Dai said "Oh" and then said, "Can you change my title to me?"

The old steward looked confused. Change your title? What title should you change?

Ning Dai looked at the old steward who said nothing, and the two stared at each other for a while.

The old steward felt that Ning Dai was posing a problem for him. What should he call her if she didn't call her "Princess"? However, the old steward had been in charge of things for so long, so it was not a problem for him to deal with it casually. He saluted and said: "As for the title, Lao

I don’t dare to make my own decisions, why don’t I ask the old slave to ask the prince for instructions?”

Ning Dai pouted: "Forget it."

The old steward hurriedly responded: "Yes."

Then I had other things to do in the other room, so I didn't stay any longer.

After the old steward left, Ning Dai began to study the palace drawings he brought.

Since Bing Xishi didn't mind her demolishing the house so much, she couldn't let him down and must form a demolition team.

When the stack of drawings on the table was almost finished, Yuan'er, who had gone back to the Hou Mansion, also came back.

As soon as she came back, she couldn't wait to rest and reported to Ning Dai everything about her return to the Marquis Mansion, as well as what Ning Dai had told her.

"Miss, I have told the prince everything you have told me." Yuan'er said: "The prince said that he will take care of matters in the house and will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation."

Ning Dai nodded, and finally got something nice to say.

Yuan'er continued: "As for Miss, you said you wanted to ask him about borrowing someone, but the prince refused."

"Why not?" Ning Dai frowned.

"The prince said that there are many guards in the palace to protect you. If the young lady wants someone, she can just transfer someone from the palace. There is no need to ask him to borrow someone. Besides, it is unreasonable for the prince's palace to transfer someone." After Yuan'er finished speaking, she glanced quietly.

Taking a look at Ning Dai, she actually felt that what the prince said was right. How could the guards be transferred from her mother's family? What did the palace think?

"What's unjustifiable in this?!" Ning Dai objected and almost jumped: "Who do the people in this mansion listen to and pay their wages? Is it me? Is it the Hou's mansion? Can they listen to me? Can they do their best?

Will you try your best to help me?"
