Chapter 1760 Five Volumes 67 Know It Already (1 More)
"What's more, Concubine Ling has always been considerate in her work, and she has already reported this matter to me~"

Nala smiled faintly, turned her head and nodded in Wanxi's direction, then turned her head, stretched out her hand to the emperor, and teased Elder Brother Twelve.

Concubine Shu was shocked, "What? Concubine Ling has already reported to the master and empress in advance?"

Only then did Wanxi get up unhurriedly, and bowed her knees in the direction of Nala, "Although the concubine was bestowed by the emperor with the position of 'assisting internal governance', it was only when the master was too busy. Besides Even if 'Zuo Li Nei Zhi', the concubine has never taken it as her own decision, so the concubine must return to the Ming master and empress first in everything."

Nala nodded with a smile, "What Lingfei said is true."

Concubine Shu turned her head and stared at Wanxi with rounded eyes, a pair of eyeballs seemed to protrude from their sockets and could fall off at any time. "But before, when the concubine told the matter to the mistress, the mistress was clearly an accident, so she said she asked someone to investigate!"

Nala smiled, shrugged slightly, then slowly pulled his fingers out of his son's small palm, and then turned to look at Concubine Shu.

"But Concubine Shu's report that day, isn't the point that Concubine Ling embezzled the money?"

"I said I already knew that it was Concubine Ling who tried to manage the land and property in the garden. Naturally, I didn't know about the embezzlement of money that Concubine Shu said. Then I will ask someone to investigate and see if Concubine Shu is right. It's true~"

After talking like this for a long time, the emperor calmly raised his eyes to look at Nala, with a faint smile in his long eyes.

Nala's smile became more calm and determined.

"As for what Concubine Shu said about embezzling money, Concubine Shu is too worried. It's just nonsense."

Nala stood up slowly, and said to the concubines, "The Old Summer Palace is the emperor's summer palace. Every year we follow the emperor, and spend at least half a year in the Old Summer Palace. The importance of the Old Summer Palace is no less than that of the Forbidden City. "

"Besides, my sisters also know that the Forbidden City is the old palace of the former Ming Dynasty. Our previous emperors in the Qing Dynasty cherished material resources, and did not like the previous dynasties. Once they won the world, they would set fire to the previous palace. Burn it! This is the heart of our ancestors!"

"Compared to the Forbidden City, the Old Summer Palace was built by us. We should build more according to our own preferences."

"It's just that the sisters also know that wherever there are palaces and gardens, there will be expenses. Not to mention the construction of new buildings, the daily maintenance of the original buildings is an expense."

"As I was nagging with my sisters a few days ago, if you really don't know how expensive the rice is if you are not in charge of the family, even the annual maintenance expenses of the garden, I have to carefully calculate it."

As Nala said, she raised her eyes and looked at Wanxi again, and smiled slowly.

"Concubine Ling came up with a good idea, which is to rent out the rice fields, vegetable fields, lotus ponds, reed ponds, etc. that are often empty in the garden. There will be a fixed income every year."

"Even if we operate this year, we will get 200 taels of silver, which is enough to pay for the daily maintenance expenses. It's like the common people live in their own small homes, with firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea, who can't rely on the women at home to plan carefully? Although we are a heavenly family, But there are also big difficulties, that is, more than 1000 taels of silver is not a big amount, but it is a fortune to save the court. Isn't this a good idea? It just changed some ancestors' rules, but this is the overall situation , which one of the ancestors would blame?"
