"Prince Princess, these are the account books of the palace's properties last month and this month, the income from the village outside, and the daily expenses of the palace. Please take a look."
The first rule Liu Pinting made after taking over the palace was to check the account books in the middle and at the end of each month.
Mrs. Liu died early. She had been helping Father Liu run the family since she was a child, so she naturally knew the powerful relationship between this.
She knows very well that even if she trusts someone again, she must fulfill her responsibilities of supervision to prevent those who were originally sincere from becoming evil and going astray due to the influence of interests and lack of supervision.
Of course, there is no way to do this.
This accounting is also a science. It must be done to make those in charge profitable, but not to let them be too greedy. Only in this way can they work more devotedly for the master, but not be swayed.
The foundation of the host family.
This is also the experience she has accumulated over many years as a business owner.
Therefore, auditing the accounts is crucial to her ability to manage the family well.
"It's time to take care of the house."
Liu Pinting nodded and signaled the maid to take the account book from the housekeeper's hand. She flipped through the top account book and her eyes suddenly focused on the accounts of the past few days. She pointed at a certain number and asked:
"Why is the prince's chewing power so big recently?"
"This..." The housekeeper couldn't help but look confused. His expression was hesitant and he didn't know how to answer.
When Liu Pinting saw this, she couldn't help but raise her head in confusion, looked at the housekeeper calmly and said, "Why, is there anything I can't ask about?"
The housekeeper hurriedly explained: "The Crown Princess has misunderstood. Since the princess has ordered the Crown Princess to take charge of the house, the Crown Princess naturally has the right to intervene in all matters of the family. The Crown Prince has been in and out of Fenghuang frequently in the past few days.
Que Tower, so... that's why it costs a bit more." In fact, the housekeeper's answer was still reserved. Ji Chenxue did not go in and out of Feng Que Tower often, but she went there almost every day.
"Fengque Tower? Where is that place?" Liu Pinting left home when she was a child and did not return to the capital until she was ten years old. After that, she stayed in the mansion most of the time and was not familiar with many places in the capital.
The butler replied hesitantly: "Yes, it is... a newly opened brothel in the capital." After the butler finished speaking, he carefully looked at Liu Biting's reaction. After all, the prince had only been married for a month.
He began to hang out in prostitutes, and almost to the point of losing his home. Any woman would be angry if she heard this.
The housekeeper originally thought he would see the angry expression on the Crown Princess's face, but unexpectedly, Liu Pinting's face was calm. After hearing this, she only frowned slightly, and then said calmly: "I understand, you go first
Go down. I'll come to you for questioning after I've read these account books."
"Yes!" The butler responded tremblingly, and then retreated, thinking about whether to tell the prince and princess about this matter. After all, it was not a good thing for the prince to linger in a brothel for a long time.
What's more, the Crown Princess also found out.
In particular, the Crown Princess's current reaction is really hard to understand.
Could it be because I am getting old?
Thinking of this, the housekeeper couldn't help but shook his head. In any case, these are the master's affairs. They, the servants, can just do their duty. There is no need to speculate too much about the master's intentions.
