After Qinyi came, Yun Shang felt a lot more relaxed indeed. Although Qinyi had just arrived in Xia Kingdom, she should have done enough homework early on about the customs of Xia Kingdom, as well as the ladies and ladies who come and go on weekdays.
The preferences and temperaments of the masters in the palace are all clearly understood one by one.
Yun Shang looked at Qinyi who was busy in the house, preparing things needed for the New Year, grinned and said, "It's great that Qinyi is here, I can save a lot of worry."
Qian Zui, who was on the side, nodded in agreement, "Not to mention the princess, even the slaves felt as if they were free all of a sudden."
Qin Yi looked at the two of them with a smile, but her tone was a bit helpless, "The princess really doesn't look like a mistress of the house, and this is not good. How can there be a mistress in the house as lazy as the princess?
He actually only cares about things in his own yard, as if there is no Prince Rui's Mansion outside the yard. And seeing that the New Year is coming soon, except for the housekeeper ordering someone to buy some things, he has not prepared anything."
Yun Shang quietly stuck out her tongue. Although she got married in her previous life, her mother-in-law took care of it, so it was not her turn to worry about it. In this life, she only spent one Spring Festival after getting married, and she spent it on the battlefield, so she was not interested in it.
I don't know much about these trivial matters in the mansion. Since Luo Qingyan is often away from the mansion, the housekeeper rarely takes care of these things. I still remember that when Luo Qingyan held his first birthday banquet, the housekeeper came for help.
She is really not good at housekeeping, and no one around her is experienced, and no one can give her any advice.
"Qianzuo, please ask someone who usually makes clothes for the princess and the prince to measure the size of the prince and princess. Come and get about three sets of new clothes. The colors are a little more auspicious and festive." Qin Yi then raised her head and ordered.
Have a light drink.
Qianzuo quickly agreed and went out happily to give orders.
Qin Yi added, "In the morning, before the princess got up, the servant ordered the housekeeper to hang up the window grilles and lanterns that he had purchased earlier. The day when the Seventh Prince got married was already the New Year's Eve, so it should be the New Year's Eve.
It’s time to prepare for the New Year. The Xia Kingdom is still celebrating the New Year. Everyone is twenty-eight today. It’s the time to put up New Year pictures, spring couplets, window grilles, etc. By the way, the slave has to go and talk to the housekeeper later.
As soon as it was said that tomorrow would be twenty-nine, Xia Guo called it Little New Year's Eve. They would have a banquet at home, and then people they knew well would go back and forth to arrange the banquet. This practice was called farewell. People had to wait outside the door.
Burning incense for three days is called heavenly incense. If you forget it, it will be bad if guests come tomorrow."
Yun Shang never thought that it was just a New Year celebration, but she could be so particular about it. She had never paid attention to the customs and habits of the New Year before. She only remembered that if she was in the palace, it would just be a New Year's Eve event.
It's just a palace banquet. The only difference is that the palace banquet on New Year's Eve is much more lively than at other times. After marrying into the Mo Mansion, I have seen Spring Festival couplets and window grilles posted in the mansion, but it's just a different year.
Never seen it before.
"Fortunately, Qin Yi is here, otherwise we would have made another joke." Yun Shang sighed softly, with a bit of sadness, "Before, the Duke's wife always reminded me of my personal sophistication, but no one came to tell me.
What exactly should be done? Fortunately, you are here."
Qinyi walked up to Yun Shang and said with a smile, "Now that the princess is pregnant, you don't have to worry too much about these trivial matters. It's just that the princess is now the mistress of the house, so there are some things that she has to do.
.The princess is a woman of great wisdom and can help the prince in many things. I know this. But being a wife requires not only great wisdom, but also taking care of the palace.
You have to be in good order and handle the relationship with the ladies of each house well."
Yun Shang held Qin Yi's hand, nodded gently, sighed, and said after a while, "Yes, I understand."
Seeing that Yun Shang seemed a little depressed, Qin Yi quickly comforted her, "But the princess just got married and is surrounded by little girls. It's not the princess's fault that she doesn't know how to handle things now. I will go find the housekeeper later."
Pick two experienced nuns. Those nuns can be considered to be talented people, so they should be able to help the princess a lot."
Yun Shang nodded and responded.
Sure enough, at ten o'clock in the afternoon, Qin Yi brought the two nuns into the yard, and pulled Yun Shang to let the two nuns pay their respects.
"This is Aunt Qi, and this is Aunt Qiu." Qin Yi pointed at the two nuns and said softly next to Yun Shang.
The two nuns quickly saluted Yun Shang, "I have seen the princess."
"Get up." Yun Shang said with a smile, looking back and forth between the two of them.
Yun Shang looked at the appearance of the two nuns. Both of them were wearing dark purple dresses. There were no wrinkles in the clothes, and their hair was combed meticulously. Whether they were walking or talking, they looked very stable and reliable.
It should also be carefully selected.
Yun Shang secretly nodded and then said with a smile, "Now that we have entered this courtyard, it is also a kind of fate. As the saying goes, it is best to break things off before breaking up. Although it is the first time we meet, I still have to say the rules.
Let me make it clear. I don’t need to be too restrained in the yard on weekdays. As long as there are no big mistakes, I don’t like to dwell on small mistakes. But even if it is a small mistake, I can be forgiven for it occasionally, but if it happens often
, then don’t blame me for being strict. When working in my courtyard, I only ask for one thing, and that is absolute loyalty. I am usually quite easy to talk to, but if my limit is touched,
I am not easy to give in to. Qin Yi will tell you the rest one by one, so I am too lazy to talk about it, but do you understand? "
The two nuns responded quickly, "Slave, don't worry."
Yun Shang waved her hand and asked Qinyi to take the two of them out to find Qianzhu and find a place to settle down first. After sorting out their things, they would just come back to the house to report.
Qinyi took the two nuns out. After a while, Qinyi came back, but the two nuns were missing behind her.
Yun Shang glanced at it and said, "Did Qianzui take him down?"
Qin Yi nodded, walked to Yun Shang with a smile and said, "The princess behaves like a serious master when she sets the rules."
When Qin Yi said this, Yun Shang couldn't help but laugh, "Do you think I don't act like a serious master on weekdays?"
"Yes, it's a bit too gentle." Qin Yi nodded unambiguously, "I'm always afraid that you are too gentle to the maids and servants around you. It would not be good if the maids and servants do something wrong.
Punishment.”
Yun Shang smiled slightly, "How can I be so gentle?" After saying that, he paused and then said, "But to be honest, with these two nuns suddenly here, I don't know what to ask them to do.
"
Hearing this, Qin Yi said, "I think that these two nuns are both from the Xia country. Compared with us, they have some advantages. It is not as good as having one in charge and one in charge. The one in charge is mainly responsible.
Looking at the princess's diet and daily life, the princess now has a baby. She must pay special attention to her daily food and drink, as well as the things used in the house. The two nuns also have some experience in these things, and they can also keep an eye on the things in the house.
Except for the servants outside our courtyard, the main thing is to look at the birthdays of certain ladies and ladies, small banquets, and what festivals and festivals should be given to whom, these personal matters."
"Then I will follow your arrangement. These two nuns have just entered the house, so they still have to keep a close eye on them. Qinyi, you will also help to see if they make any little moves or anything." Yun Shang said with a smile.
After lunch, Yun Shang took a short rest. When she got up, she saw Qian Zui waiting with secret guards. Seeing Yun Shang getting up, she hurriedly said, "Princess, the seventh prince's concubine Liu some time ago
After the incident, I ordered the secret guards to secretly keep an eye on several mansions that were somewhat related to the incident. This morning, Mrs. Liu left the mansion and went to a small courtyard to meet someone."
Yun Shang had just woken up and was still a little confused. It took him a while to realize what Qian Zui was talking about. After a moment of silence, he said, "Who did you meet?"
The secret guard said quickly: "I didn't see who the person in the courtyard was. There were people guarding the courtyard, and I couldn't get close. I just heard Mrs. Liu coming in and asked the maid who opened the door what she was doing."
, there should be a woman living in that courtyard, my subordinates could only faintly hear the sound of a musical instrument coming from the courtyard, but knew nothing else."
"Miss?" Yun Shang was in a daze, and a ray of light seemed to suddenly flash in front of her eyes among the light of the calcium carbide fire.
"Could it be that Liu Chuchu is not dead at all?" Yun Shang frowned and muttered to herself.
Qian Zui was stunned when he heard this, but he was a little strange, "Liu Chuchu is not dead? But the secret guard clearly entered the house to check that day, and Liu Chuchu is obviously dead."
Yun Shang thought of some doubts that had existed before and was silent for a moment before saying: "I had some doubts before. If Liu Chuchu really married into the Seventh Prince's Palace, why did he only bring so few things with him, even his favorite Jiao Wei Qin?
They didn't bring them all, and they didn't look like they were going to marry into the Seventh Prince's Mansion with peace of mind and live in the Seventh Prince's Mansion for a long time. Moreover, the prince said that after Liu Chuchu's parents found out about this, they didn't show any signs of being very sad.
, if the person who was carried into the Seventh Prince's Mansion that day was not Liu Chuchu at all, this matter would be explained."
After Yun Shang finished speaking, he frowned again and remained silent for a long time before speaking again, "If this is said, what happened in the Seventh Prince's Mansion that day might not have been done by the Seventh Prince. Or it might have been.
The people in the Liu Mansion did this deliberately in order to conceal that it was not Liu Chuchu who entered the manor."
After thinking for a while, he shook his head, "But the Liu Mansion is now in such a state of ruin. It is really impossible to make such a big move in the Seventh Prince's Mansion without being discovered." (To be continued)
