Entering the East Palace, he followed He Ningxin to the study room, where the eldest princess Di Yuwei was sitting in front of the desk reading.
He Ningxin stopped Zhang Qian outside and refused to let her in.
Zhang Qian had no choice, this was the eldest princess's place, she couldn't make trouble.
At this time, Emperor Yuwei was not wearing court clothes, but was wearing casual clothes with ink paintings on them, which made him look like an outsider.
"I'm down to the official, Long Cheng'en, to pay my respects to the eldest princess."
Long Chen gave a slight salute.
Di Yu put down the book slightly, looked at Long Chen carefully, and said, "Fourth sister, are you willing to let you come over?"
This is said very lightly, but the meaning is worth pondering.
Everyone knew that Di Luoxi protected food and regarded Long Chen as his forbidden love.
Di Yuwei once tried to win over Long Chen, but failed.
"The lower official is a member of the imperial court. The fourth princess understands the righteousness and has asked me to carefully assist the eldest princess."
"Should I ask you not to betray me?"
Di Yuwei knew very well who his sister was.
Long Chen was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer.
As expected, they are sisters, and they all speak in the same style.
"Okay, time is tight, get ready to go to the Ministry of Finance immediately."
"Ning Xin, is everyone here?"
Di Yuwei himself also found people who were experts in auditing and accounting.
"Everyone is here, waiting at the door."
Di Yu stood up slightly and walked to the bedroom, followed by the maid. He Ningxin went to the door and told the palace maid to prepare the carriage.
Long Chen stood in the study room and was about to go out, but was stopped by Di Yu Weiwei.
"You come in."
Long Chen was stunned for a moment, but still followed him into the bedroom.
Di Yu walked into the bedroom slightly and went behind the screen. There were many clothes hanging on the hangers. Two maids took the formal clothes off the hangers.
"Would you mind, Fourth Sister, if you change my clothes for this princess?"
Di Yu slightly stretched out his hands, and his ink-and-wash style clothes fell to the ground, revealing a tall, fair body in front of him.
The eldest princess, Di Yuwei, is tall and has not much flesh on her body. She is very thin, but it is just right and does not appear to be morbid.
Di Yu slightly turned back to look at Long Chen and motioned for him to serve and dress.
Long Chen felt like shit in his heart. He had seen Di Luoxi, then the empress, and this time it was Di Yuwei. Do you want to see all five of their family?
Long Chen stepped forward and saw the bellybands on the wardrobe. These bellybands were also ink style and made of silk.
"I wonder what the princess will wear today?"
It was the first time Long Chen dressed Di Yuwei, and he didn't know what kind of combination she liked.
"I heard that you have a good eye for matching clothes. You can figure it out."
Di Yuwei discovered that Long Chen had very stylish clothes and hairstyle after arriving at the West Palace. She wanted to try Long Chen's taste.
Long Chen picked a plain silk bellyband, walked to the front and helped Di Yuwei put it on, and then went around behind him to tie the belt.
That's right, Long Chen deliberately walked to the front just now, just to have a clear view.
After staying in the harem for a long time, Long Chen became bolder.
After putting on the bellyband, he picked out a pair of pants with the same ink style and helped Di Yu put it on slightly.
Finally, there is the formal suit. In order to match the ink-style bellyband, Long Chen chooses another matching set.
After putting it on, Long Chen said: "The princess's hair style can be changed, it will match better."
Di Yu sat slightly in front of the dressing table, and Long Chen quickly made a new hairstyle.
After getting up and looking in the bronze mirror, Di Yu was very satisfied: "No wonder the fourth sister treats you as a treasure."
After leaving the bedroom, Di Yuwei was in front and Long Chen was behind. When they arrived at the door, He Ningxin brought a dozen men and women, all of whom were good accountants selected from various yamen.
"Meet Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Everyone saluted in unison.
Di Yuwei ignored it, got on the carriage, and went straight to Hubu.
When he arrived at the Ministry of Revenue, only Chen Hanying, the minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and the officials from the Ministry of Revenue greeted him at the door.
"Chen Hanying, the Minister of Household Affairs, pays homage to Her Royal Highness the Princess."
"I pay homage to Her Royal Highness the Princess."
The officials from the Ministry of Revenue saluted together.
"Where is Jing Shangshu?"
He Ningxin was unhappy.
Although Jing Heng's family was powerful, Emperor Yuwei was the eldest princess and was ordered to verify the accounts of the Household Department. As the Secretary of the Household Department, Jing Heng should lead his staff to greet her at the door.
Di Yu slightly gestured to her to forget it. Jing Heng was used to being domineering and it was useless to say anything. It would only make him lose face even more.
Di Yuwei got off the carriage and led people into the main hall of the Household Department. The account books of the Household Department for the past ten years were placed on the floor of the main hall. They were full, almost filling most of the room.
Seeing these account books, Di Yuwei's heart went crazy.
How to check so many ledgers?
"Your Highness Princess, these were brought here by Master Shangshu. The accounts of the Ministry of Revenue are all here."
Chen Hanying, the Minister of Household Affairs, bowed respectfully.
This Chen Hanying is from the Jing family and is protected by Jing Tianlie, so she is respectful to Emperor Yu in appearance but disrespectful in heart.
"knew."
Di Yuwei said something coldly, and then waved his hand to signal Chen Hanying and the people from the household department to go out.
Chen Hanying took the people out, and He Ningxin immediately said: "You guys start checking, and if you have any questions, come to me."
More than a dozen people immediately started looking through the account books.
Long Chen also picked up the account book and looked through it. The accounting method used in it was very primitive and looked messy.
Di Yuwei and his men ate their meals at Hubu from morning till night.
Di Yuwei also learned to keep accounts, but looking at these account books made her head hurt.
"Princess, these ledgers are so messed up."
He Ningxin rubbed her temples.
Di Yuwei threw the account book aside and said angrily: "The accounts are so messed up, how can we check them!"
The dozen or so people we brought were equally distressed. The accounts were too numerous and confusing.
"Your Highness, these accounts are not older than half a year. I'm afraid we can't sort them out."
An old accountant said.
It took half a year to sort out the accounts, and the day lilies were already cold.
Long Chen, however, seemed engrossed in watching it, and he would draw pictures in his hands from time to time.
Di Yu stood up slightly and walked behind Long Chen, only to see Long Chen writing some strange symbols on another account: 12345...
"What kind of writing is this? Barbarian writing? Or pirate writing?"
He Ningxin can't understand Arabic numerals.
Long Chen ignored it and continued to make new accounts out of old accounts, calculating them bit by bit.
After finishing a few accounts, Long Chen stood up and said: "Your Highness, I have a new accounting method that I want all of you in the accounting department to learn. According to this new accounting method, you can sort out all the accounts in the Account Department.
"
Long Chen had good intentions, but when he said these words, he was unanimously ridiculed.
“I’ve been an accountant for more than 40 years, so I still don’t know how to do it?”
"I'm old and can't learn new things. If you think I can't do it, princess, please ask someone else to do it."
"I have old eyesight and can't do anything else. If adults think we can't do it, then that's it."
To put it bluntly, these people think they can do the accounting and look down on Long Chen's gesticulation.
Di Yu slightly saw the reluctance of these accountants and said: "Isn't there just one accounting method? Is there a new one?"
Long Chen also saw the thoughts of these people and said: "My accounting method is called double-entry accounting. I will demonstrate it to you. If you think it is good, then learn it. If you think it is not good, then forget it."
After speaking, Long Chen picked up a ledger and began to demonstrate the double-entry accounting method to them.
