In Wufangzhai, Yan Jiuwan and Shen Xiang were comparing this year's various account books with those of previous years. Song Qingyue asked them to make an "audit" report. They were asked to write down what was different from previous years, and also

They speculate on the causes of these changes and evaluate whether the changes, especially the reductions, are within a reasonable range.

Of course, what Song Qingyue made before and what Mo Yun and Mo Xiang wrote in the past few years are used as reference.

With so many things on her hands, Song Qingyue couldn't do everything herself. She had to train her talents so that she could start doing other new things.

When Li Zhao came back, Yan Jiuwan and Shen Xiang had not left yet.

Song Qingyue went up to help him change his shirt and asked, "Why are you here?"

Li Zhao laughed when he saw Song Qingyue, put his arms around her waist, and wanted to kiss her, but Song Qingyue tried her best to avoid her.

Li Zhao thought it was because he went to Ting Yuxuan last night that his Yue'er was jealous and troublesome, so he stuck to her, hugged her, kissed her face, and coaxed softly: "I kept you safe last night for my husband! Don't do it!"

You’re jealous, you’re a little careful, huh?”

This guy was getting more and more disgusting. Song Qingyue wanted to roll her eyes, slapped his face away from him, and pointed her eyes at the two people who were not leaving. Only then did Li Zhao notice Yan Jiuwan and Shen Xiang.

When he first looked at them, he was a little confused, but he quickly remembered that these were the two people he had brought back from Grandpa Huang before Song Qingyue entered the mansion last year.

He leaned into Song Qingyue's ear and whispered, "What's your name?"

Song Qingyue dodged again and said with a smile: "It's nothing. Yan Jiuwan and Shen Xiang are helping me read the account books."

The two of them hurriedly saluted Li Zhao.

"Your Highness, stay safe!"

Li Zhao waved his hand: "It's so late, go back and have a rest."

Song Qingyue hurriedly stopped him: "Goodbye, you two have been busy all afternoon, let's have dinner together. What do you want to eat, Your Highness? Eunuch Yang said that some fish from the river were sent from the south today. They are still alive and very fat!"

Li Zhao glanced at Song Qingyue and didn't understand what she meant. He thought for a while and replied: "The fish needs to be steamed. Nothing else matters."

Song Qingyue smiled: "By coincidence, I also want to eat steamed white fish. Where are you Yan Jiuwan and Shen Xiang?"

Yan Jiuwan agreed: "I also like steamed fish, white fish is very good."

Shen Xiang said: "I want to eat spicy chicken. I tried it once before and thought it was delicious. Unfortunately, the cook never made it again."

Spicy chicken is still a precious dish now. Firstly, peppers are not yet completely popular. Some varieties of peppers are even rarer. It is not easy to find and the price is very high. Secondly, anything fried these days is expensive.

Gold is expensive because oil is expensive.

Li Zhao nodded: "Spicy chicken is good, this dish is fragrant." Looking back at Lin Wanfu, Eunuch Lin immediately bowed and said: "I will go to the kitchen and give instructions."

Yushu came over to help Li Zhao wash his hands, but Li Zhao moved away unaccustomedly. When he was in the northwest, it was Song Qingyue who helped him wash his hands and put on his clothes. She also said that she didn't like others touching him. So she glanced at Song Qingyue.

, you mean why don’t you come over and help me clean my hands?

Song Qingyue pretended not to notice, washed her hands and went to sit in the dining room.

Li Zhao didn't know why, so he held his breath and washed his hands, then sat down at the table and stared at Song Qingyue unhappily.

Song Qingyue sighed and said to the ink fan: "Hurry up and make a pot for our Highness. This year's tomorrow, Bai Baihuo, look at him, I don't know what kind of anger he got outside today."

Li Zhao snorted: "How can I be angry? Who dares to make me angry outside? The anger I have suffered outside for more than ten years combined is not as good as what I have endured here!"

Seeing how angry he was, Song Qingyue felt inexplicably happy. She laughed out loud and was not in a hurry to smooth down the furry wolf cub. She drank tea leisurely and ignored him.

Li Zhao took a deep breath and said angrily: "My prince is not as knowledgeable as a little girl like you!" After saying that, he stretched out his hand to pinch Song Qingyue's face.

Song Qingyue tilted her head to hide. He stretched out his arms and tried to squeeze. He squeezed hard, but Song Qingyue rolled his eyes in protest.

Yan Jiuwan and Shen Xiang looked on with envy in their hearts. His Royal Highness looked like he was angry with the Crown Princess, but from his eyes to his movements, not to mention how intimate he was.

While eating, Song Qingyue mentioned that she wanted to hold a Go competition in the house.

Li Zhao put a piece of the fattest fish belly near the fins into her bowl. Song Qingyue reluctantly thanked her and motioned with her eyes to add a piece to the two of them.

Li Zhao was reluctant to deal with these two people.

He is neither lustful nor greedy for pleasure. To be precise, Li Zhao only wants to pursue a career and only sleeps with "useful women." At least that's how he is portrayed in the original work.

Judging from the family backgrounds of Yan and Shen, they were two "useless women" in his eyes, and he did not need to bother to deal with them at all.

But since Song Qingyue signaled him this way, he had no choice but to show her favor and gave Yan Jiuwan some fish with chopsticks, and added a piece of spicy chicken to Shen Xiang's bowl and said, "Eat more of what you ordered."

Shen Xiang was flattered and stood up to say thanks: "Thank you so much, Your Highness."

"Well, sit down and talk, and eat slowly." Li Zhao said.

"Thank you, Your Highness." Shen Xiang lowered his head and chewed his chopsticks, thinking that it was indeed the right way to seek refuge with the Crown Princess! She had been in the mansion for almost two years, and this was the first time His Highness spoke to her.

Song Qingyue was finally satisfied. She touched Li Zhao's calf with her foot under the table and said, "Ask you, I'm thinking about holding the Go game on Chinese Valentine's Day. Maybe we can have several couples at our house."

Li Zhao looked at her, found it interesting, and asked, "When did you fall in love with being a matchmaker?"

Song Qingyue still didn't give him a smile and said, "Well, isn't it a good thing to help people achieve marriage? Is it possible?"

"In Liuquan residence?" Li Zhao suggested.

Song Qingyue shook her head: "A lot of women are here too. I'm afraid it's inconvenient for Liu Quan to stay, so he still has to stay in the house. What's the matter? Is there anything wrong?"

Li Zhao thought for a while: "It's not impossible if you really want to do this, but it's not convenient for me to come forward to hire someone for you. You can ask your father and brother to come forward to hire those chess masters."

Song Qingyue suddenly understood that Li Zhao was afraid that doing this at this juncture would be too conspicuous and that someone would accuse the palace of using the chess game to form cliques for personal gain.

"Forget it, let's wait a few years before we talk." Song Qingyue was a little disappointed.

Li Zhao couldn't see her disappointed expression the most, so he immediately changed his words without any principle: "Let's do it! Let's do it! What are you afraid of! Our palace usually doesn't even hold a flower-viewing banquet, and it's okay to hold a chess match once in a while. Let's talk about chess skills.

Most of the masters are white. Officials don’t have time to study this. Don’t worry, just take care of things. If anything happens, it’s your husband’s responsibility!”

Song Qingyue finally had a smile on her face. After thinking about it, she said: "Don't we have two Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing? How about we do it at the Zhuangzi? It seems a bit intrusive to do it in the palace."

Li Zhao hummed and said: "That's okay, we can do it at the Hot Spring Villa. The conditions there are good, the garden is big enough, and the decoration is exquisite, so we won't lose our status."

After that, he gave Song Qingyue another piece of fish: "Eat more, today's fish is fat."

Song Qingyue laughed and said to Yan Jiuwan and Shen Xiang: "In the meantime, you two will help me organize things together. Go back and think about what to do. If you have any good ideas, come and tell me in time."

Another errand!

The two of them happily agreed.

Li Zhao looked at the two of them again in surprise.
