"...Yes." Concubine Chen finally lowered her head.
"Come here, take Concubine Chen back to her house."
Concubine Chen, Wen, and Rong Zhan left, and the concubines also left after dividing their gold coins. King Dongrong's former stewards, maids, etc. also went back to pack their things.
After working all morning, Baili Xixi hadn't eaten lunch yet, and was about to go back to her room to have dinner, when a man and two women attracted her attention.
"Didn't you hear what I said? Go back and pack your things quickly!"
The two women were coquettish, and finally the manservant came up and said, "To the princess, the servants serve the prince."
"So?" Baili Xixi raised her eyebrows.
The male servant raised his head and glanced at Baili Xixi, then immediately lowered his head in panic, "The prince is used to being served by three servants. I'm afraid the servants can't leave."
"Oh! Do you have any family?"
The manservant and the two women shook their heads.
"Are they all gone?"
"No." The male servant said hurriedly: "Three months ago, the prince showed mercy and gave them money to buy fields and settle down in the suburbs of Beijing."
Baili Xixi asked: "Do you want to leave, or don't you want to leave?"
The three of them hesitated for a moment, then quickly shook their heads.
"Then you stay here for now." Baili Xixi's eyes widened, "But you can only stay in the side hospital where the prince is recuperating, and you must not leave without permission."
"Yes. Princess, please rest assured."
The three of them left, but Baili Xixi stared at their backs for a long time. Yiduo laid out the food and asked Baili Xixi to eat.
"What are you looking at? It's time to eat."
"Those three people were a bit strange. They were timid and wanted to leave but didn't want to."
"They are serving King Dongrong, they must be like that." The monthly salary to serve King Dongrong must be high, and of course they are reluctant to leave. But now is also a good opportunity to get out of slavery, and many people's families have been doing so for generations.
It's a slave.
For example, let’s take the Yiduo family. If it weren’t for Li Shuxian pretending to be good people, the image of the Yiduo family would also be honest. They would neither stand out nor be disliked by Li Shuxian. In addition, Yiduo secretly bribed the people around Li Shuxian, otherwise she would be freed from slavery.
Such good things will never happen to them in their lifetime.
Baili Xixi thought about it and thought that was the case, but she always felt that something was wrong.
Baili Xixi forgot everything for a moment, all she could think about was eating.
"Yiduo, what do you want for lunch? I want to eat abalone..."
"No abalone."
"Shark fin..."
"No shark fins."
"Bird's nest..."
"No bird's nest."
"What's there?"
"One pork, two vegetables, and one egg soup."
"Why are you so stingy?"
"I have no money! All the money must be kept to open the store."
"Then you have no money and you ask me to give those concubines money..."
"You told the emperor that you were a Wenquxing star. How dare you ask me to leave without giving you a penny..."
"I am Wen Quxing, not the God of Wealth. You Duo'er, you are a prodigal. You didn't earn a penny, but you spent more than three hundred gold coins in an instant, more than three million, more than three million, the money given by the Queen Mother
Half of it was spent in one go... Oh, don't slap me in the face, I was wrong, I was wrong, don't slap me in the face..."
The side hospital where King Dongrong recuperated.
In the dark room, the thick green curtain blocked everyone's sight. Dongfang Lengxie was still sitting cross-legged on the bed covered with gorgeous brocade as usual.
