Rebirth of Concubine The World

Chapter 91
Everyone knows that King Rong Jing treats her coldly, and everyone knows that she made a big fool of herself at the love meeting.Everyone thought that she used despicable means to win the chance to marry King Rong Jing, relying on the Queen Mother's favor, so she did everything she could.

At that time, her reputation was ruined, and her friends broke up with her one after another. Rong would not be so angry that he vomited blood. If he hadn't made his mother sick and weak, he wouldn't have given the second uncle a chance!
It's a pity that I was happy at that time, thinking that I could finally become the wife of the person I love.

I hate myself that she was still thanking the Queen Mother at that time!

Now it seems that all of this should be designed by the queen mother. Although the fragrance is like wine, the alcohol concentration is not very high.She also drank alcohol frequently, and a mere bowl of Fragrant Lotion would not make her groggy at all, but in fact, this bowl of Fragrant Lotion should have already been added!

She thought she was drunk and did such an insulting thing in a moment of confusion.In fact, even if she noticed something strange at that time, how could she question the Queen Mother?
After seeing off the palace man who delivered the decree, He Lanhuo's expression changed, and his heart became even colder.

Of course, He Lanhuo would go to the palace banquet this time, but she just wanted to see who was being plotted against.

"Hong Zhu, how is the honey jujube tea I ordered you to make?"

When He Lanhuo asked, Hong Zhu hurriedly brought up the prepared honey and jujube tea.

In the past few days, Hongzhu also has an unbelievable feeling that the princess has changed, and her temperament makes Hongzhu feel strange, but the strange thing is that at the same time, Hongzhu also believes that the princess is still the same person.

The honey jujube tea was prepared for Rong's. In his previous life, Rong's health was not very good due to overworking and overthinking.In this life, He Lanhuo will also help Rong's body to make up for it.

When He Lanhuo brought the honey tea into the study, he found that Xi's daughter-in-law was also there.

Seeing He Lanhuo stepping in, Xi's daughter-in-law also felt a little uncomfortable.

In the past, Xi's daughter-in-law didn't pay much attention to He Lanhuo at all, but recently the princess seemed to have become smarter, which made Xi's daughter-in-law feel a little guilty.

"Mother, take your time and worry less. You should rest more and worry less."

He Lanhuo brought the tea and said sweetly on the side.

Xi's daughter-in-law also agrees: "That's right, Madam has treated them well enough for these lowly things, but they still make such foolish things to poke Madam's heart and hurt Madam's body, but can they bear it? "

Hearing He Lanhuo's words, Rong's face was originally cloudy and cleared, but now a little more sad.

"I don't know why mother is troubled?"

"It's not that in the past few years, the harvest in the village has not been good, and those people in the village are unwilling to pay the rent, but they don't look at the difficulties of Madam."

When He Lanhuo heard Xi's daughter-in-law say this, there was a slight smile on the corner of his lips, but he didn't let Xi's daughter-in-law say this, and there was a trace of panic in her eyes, as if she was trying to hide something.

Mrs. Rong has always been very sympathetic to the villagers who work under her, so she sighed softly and said: "Forget it, this rent will not be collected for the time being, and we will talk about it when the year is over."

Xi's daughter-in-law couldn't help but quietly heaved a sigh of relief, knowing that Madam was always the kindest, she immediately bid farewell to Mrs. Rong.

After Xi's daughter-in-law left, He Lanhuo said softly: "Mother, there have been no natural or man-made disasters in the past few years, and Dayin's weather has been smooth, and the villagers in our village can't pay the rent. There seems to be something wrong with this." eccentric."

"You mean, these Zhuang Ding deliberately cheated and cheated? No, most of the people who work in our Zhuangzi are soldiers who fought with your father before. What's more, even if they have the idea of ​​evading, they have been fighting for half their lives, but the court is still fighting. There is no compensation, we can't be too mean, and sometimes we can't care too much."

Rong's words were not unexpected by He Lanhuo.My mother is a kind person, and she has spent her whole life on her father. I really don't know how my father has such a blessing.

"Mother, you are sympathetic. It is the blessing of those Zhuang Ding. I am afraid that some villain will play tricks in the dark, and instead let down your mother's kindness. You also know that the servant girl Lanzhu who serves me, her father also farms in the Zhuangzi. I asked a few words casually, but what Xi'er-in-law said was different."

Rong Nuan was startled by He Lanhuo's words, and He Lanhuo immediately asked Lan Zhu's father, Lan Gen, to come and pay homage to the Rong family.

If He Lanhuo hadn't sent someone to investigate earlier, the mother and daughter would have been kept in the dark by Xi's daughter-in-law.

Lan Gen said angrily: "Mrs. Mingjian, the steward Xi comes to collect the rent from time to time, we never dare to neglect. Moreover, the steward Xi also said that if everyone fails to pay the rent on time, they will sue the government and drive everyone out." go out."

Before He Lanhuo heard what Langen said, he thought Steward Xi was an honest and responsible person, but Xi's daughter-in-law was playing tricks on the side.But now it seems that the husband and wife are also in the same boat!

"Ma'am, everyone used to be a soldier. If you want to drive out of Zhuangzi, where can you go? The crops were not good in the past few years. When we encountered rent, we inevitably sold some valuables at home, and then It’s a discount to pay. Fortunately, the harvest has been good in the past few years, but after paying the rent, everyone’s life is also very tight. I don’t want to be able to raise the rent again.”

"Rent increase?" The Rong family didn't know about such a thing, and felt something was wrong in his heart.

"Uncle Lan, why don't you tell my mother how much the housekeeper Xi is charging for the rent."

He Lanhuo said on the side.

Lan Gen replied: "Go back to Missy, butler Xi takes [-]% of the rent."

When Rong Nuan heard this, she felt even more sullen. She has always been tolerant to her subordinates, but she never thought that Butler Xi would charge such a heavy rent in private!
"Uncle Lan, you go down first, just remember, you can't tell others what happened today. You are a soldier, you should know that military orders are like mountains, and now you take my orders as military orders."

After He Lanhuo gave such instructions, he sent Lan Gen out just now.

Lan Gen retreated, but Rong Nuan couldn't help but slapped the table heavily: "Unexpectedly, I really didn't expect that, I thought Butler Xi was honest, and he actually did this in private. Wouldn't this be an injustice for the Marquis Mansion?"
