Long Chen entered the dormitory with the finally compiled account books. The maid at the door did not stop him and let Long Chen in directly.
When he arrived inside and saw He Ningxin, Long Chen asked: "Where is the eldest princess?"
He Ningxin said: "In the bathroom, what? Are the accounts correct?"
Long Chen waved the account book in his hand and said, "Everything has been checked. Please take a look at it, Princess."
He Ningxin stretched out her hand to take the account book, but Long Chen didn't give it to her. He Ningxin knew what Long Chen meant and said, "You will report to the princess later."
After saying that, He Ningxin entered the bathroom. Not long after, He Ningxin came out of the bathroom and said, "The eldest princess invites Long Shangshu to come in."
It's the bathroom again... Long Chen's heart moved, should he look at all the sisters?
"Long Shangshu?"
He Ningxin saw Long Chen standing still and thought that Long Chen was unwilling.
"Could it be that Long Shangshu only serves the fourth princess and is not willing to serve the eldest princess?"
He Ningxin's face looked a little cold, feeling that Long Chen looked down on Dong Gong.
"As a eunuch, it's my duty to serve the harem. How can I say that I don't want to?"
Long Chen laughed and thought to himself: How could I refuse to watch the princess take a bath?
He Ningxin sneered and said, "Then please."
Long Chen took the account book and walked inside. Zhang Qian wanted to follow him in, but was blocked by the maid.
"Please stay!"
The maid stood with a knife in hand. Zhang Qian knew not to cause a conflict, so she could only watch Long Chen enter the bathroom.
It was already summer. There were flowers and trees in the bathroom, a canary in a cage, and a few peacocks on the rockery made of stones.
Two tall and round maids walked towards me, escorting a eunuch out.
The eunuch's head was lowered, his face was ashen, his legs were hanging in the air, and he was dragged out while wiping the floor.
"What's going on?"
Long Chen couldn't help but ask.
He Ningxin glanced at her and said, "It's probably because she didn't do things well and the eldest princess didn't like it, so she should drag her out and behead her."
Long Chen complained in his heart: The four sisters’ skills were inherited from their ancestors, and they all like to kill eunuchs.
He Ningxin saw that Long Chen looked bad and said: "The eldest princess wanted to find a eunuch as capable as Long Shangshu in the cleansing room, but several idiots were sent to her one after another. This is the ninth one."
Long Chen asked: "Kill all nine?"
He Ningxin nodded.
Long Chen thought to himself: I am so good that I escaped the fate of being killed and became the Minister of the Ministry of Industry.
When they arrived at the bath, in a pool of clear water, the eldest princess Di Yuwei was lying sideways on a couch carved from a piece of white jade. Several maids with gentle skin and delicate looks were carefully wiping her.
The long hair hangs down on the jade couch, half floating on the water and half falling on the jade. Di Yu's slightly thin and slender body is close to the jade, making her skin appear as warm and moist as jade.
One leg is slightly bent and the other leg is placed on top, like a fairy from heaven descending to earth.
"Princess, Long Shangshu is here."
He Ningxin stepped forward to report.
Di Yu's eyes fell on Long Chen and said: "Have you finished checking the accounts?"
Long Chen stepped forward and bowed: "It's done, they are all here."
However, Di Yuwei did not look at the accounts in a hurry. Instead, he turned over and lay on the jade couch, with his arms bent and his head resting on the jade arms. His wet hair was pressed against his white back, and the curves were undulating, which was so beautiful to see.
"Come, give me a bath for this princess."
Long Chen hesitated for a moment, holding the account book in his hand without moving.
It’s not like he suddenly became a gentleman. With such beauty, whoever is a gentleman must be a pervert.
The problem is, if the tigress guarding Di Luoxi's food finds out, the consequences will be serious.
"Um?"
Di Yu opened his eyes slightly, with a look of displeasure on his face.
Long Chen had no choice but to hand the account book to He Ningxin, hand the clothes to the maid next to him, and then entered the bath.
The water in the pool is brought down from the mountain. It is very cool and relieves the summer heat.
Long Chen walked over, and Di Yuwei lay obediently, waiting for Long Chen to take action.
"I heard that your body care techniques are very good. My fourth sister likes it very much and will try it on me, too."
Di Yuwei's voice was soft, but he spoke clearly.
Long Chen bowed and said, "Princess, I have some skills, but the fourth princess is used to them. This is the first time for the eldest princess... I'm afraid that you might be offended if you're not used to them."
Although the beauty is good, her life is important.
Long Chen didn't know Di Yuwei's temper. If she got angry and was dragged out for questioning, it would be the end of the world.
So, let’s make it clear first that the offense is not a sin.
Di Yu said coldly: "What you did to Fourth Sister, you do to me."
Long Chen bowed and said, "I will accept my order."
Long Chen asked the maid to bring sesame oil, apply it on Yu's back, and then slowly knead and massage it. Di Yu closed his eyes slightly, looking like he was enjoying it very much.
Start from the Dazhui point on your neck and slowly press down.
The maid next to her watched carefully and memorized Long Chen's massage techniques one by one.
Coming out of the bathroom, Long Chen personally put on Di Yuwei's clothes, from the bellyband to the coat, from the inside to the outside, and finally combed his hair.
After a lot of work, two hours passed.
Di Yu looked at the bronze mirror with slight satisfaction and said, "No wonder the fourth sister regards you as a treasure. It's really wonderful."
Long Chen bowed and said, "I don't dare, the princess has given me a reward."
Di Yuwei usually looks serious, but the way he looked just now was that he really liked Shaolin's stunts so much...
Sure enough, the more serious a person appears on the surface, the less serious they are behind the scenes.
"Bring me the ledger."
Di Yu opened his mouth slightly, and He Ningxin immediately handed over the account book.
Di Yuwei took the account book and after reading two pages, he immediately sat upright and looked at it carefully.
"How come you're losing so much money?"
"Princess, this is a deficit on the surface. The official has also discovered other things."
"What happened?"
Long Chen whispered several times into Di Yu Wei's ear. Di Yu frowned and asked in surprise: "Isn't it possible?"
Long Chen said: "The princess will find out as soon as she sends someone to investigate."
After thinking for a moment while holding the account book, Di Yu stood up slightly and said, "Follow me to see my mother."
Di Yuwei led Long Chen and He Ningxin out, and when they reached the door, Zhang Qian followed behind them, heading to Fengming Palace together.
When they arrived at Fengming Palace, Di Yuwei and Long Chen went in, while He Ningxin and Zhang Qian stayed at the door.
The empress is practicing in the alchemy room, and Yingfeng is guarding the door.
Di Yu came in slightly, and Ying Feng motioned for her to wait outside.
Di Yuwei knew that no one was allowed to disturb the empress while she was practicing, so she had no choice but to wait outside.
From afternoon until late at night, the empress had not come out yet.
Di Yu Wei felt strange. The Empress' daily practice usually didn't last more than two hours. Why did it take so long today?
"Why hasn't Queen Mother come out for so long?"
"I don't know, I don't know. Maybe I have reached a breakthrough in my cultivation."
Di Yu's eyes were slightly suspicious, but he didn't say anything after all.
"Then...I'll come back tomorrow."
Di Yu was helpless and stood up to leave Fengming Palace. Long Chen also went out together and made an appointment to come back the next day.
At this time, the door of the alchemy room suddenly opened, and the empress walked out of it.
Di Yu's face was slightly happy, and he stepped forward and said, "Queen Mother, the accounts of the Household Department have been checked clearly."
