Ma'am, your vest fell off again

Chapter 38 1000 taels of silver
"Heh, do you think my concubine will believe it? As a maid, although you have made great contributions in protecting the prince, you still have to be courteous."

Fu Xuanrong raised her head, her expression was very painful, "Since the princess said so, then I have no choice but to obey, but there is one thing I want to ask the princess."

"what's up?"

"Seeing that the weather is getting warmer, if my wound is opened due to salutation, festering, flowing water, and giving birth to small bugs, I hope the princess will send someone to tell the prince. It's not that I don't want to heal the wound as soon as possible to serve him, but that this body is too big. useless."

After finishing speaking, Fu Xuanrong was about to squat down, but before she had time to make a move, Yujin's hand had already lifted her up.

Looking angrily at the low-browed woman in front of her, Yu Jin was about to bite her silver teeth, but this woman saved the prince's life. This is an indisputable fact. If the salute really aggravated the injury, what should the people in the mansion do? Treat her as a princess.

"Forget it, my concubine was just joking with you, there is no need to be formal."

"The princess is generous and kind, and has a bodhisattva heart. It is God's blessing to have a princess like you in the palace."

Yujin sneered, "You really think so?"

"Yes, everything I just said is true and sincere." What a ghost!Li Junhao married a white lotus like you, and it was like a bad luck for eight lifetimes.

"In that case, you'd better be quiet and don't think about things you shouldn't have, lest you end up in an ugly end."

Fu Xuanrong looked at a loss, as if she didn't understand what Yujin was saying, "I shouldn't have thoughts, what does the princess mean?"

"... Forget it, you go back." Talking to this stupid woman is really a waste of time.

"Yes, thank you princess."

She lowered her head and headed towards the courtyard where she lived, until she was sure that Yujin had gone far away, then Fu Xuanrong straightened her neck and leaned lazily under the willow tree beside the lotus pond.

Now that the weather is getting warmer, there is no more frost in this pond, and unknown wild flowers are blooming all around, and everything that can be seen is thriving. Who can remember that Chuntao drowned here not long ago?

"Miss, ma'am!"

Just as she was engrossed in watching, Lian Xin's voice suddenly came to her ears. Fu Xuanrong thought she had heard it wrong, and turned her head to look, and found that it was really her who was running all the way.

"Lian Xin? Why are you here?" Could it be that something happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion?
Lian Xin dressed rudely and said: "Miss, boss, I finally found you. The Prime Minister said that there will be a banquet in the Empress Palace five days later, and the Emperor will invite you to enter the Palace by name, so you and your slaves will go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion today to prepare."

"What? Let me enter the palace?!"

Damn, did you make a mistake?The palace is already so difficult, wouldn't a place like the palace cost her half her life?
[System]: The latest task, entering the palace to gain the queen's favor, rewards peacock features fully revealed after completion.

fully revealed?Does that mean she doesn't have to be that dingy ugly bird again?

Fu Xuanrong was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Success! I'll go back with you, but before I leave, I have to say hello to Li Junhao."

She hasn't got the 1000 taels of silver, so she has to get paid before leaving.

Lian Xin thought that Fu Xuanrong was reluctant to part with Li Junhao, so she snickered and said, "Okay, my servant is waiting for you at the gate of the palace."

"Ah."

Moving to the outside of Li Junhao's study with small steps, Fu Xuanrong knocked on the door a few times, "My lord, is it convenient for me to go in?"

There was silence for a few seconds, "Come in."

Pushing open the door, Fu Xuanrong looked at the man sitting in front of the table, and said softly: "My lord~ why haven't you come to see Xuanrong these days, I really miss you~"

Although the task of favorability has been completed, Fu Xuanrong still habitually disgusts Li Junhao, because she finds that as long as she sees the man's expression like swallowing a fly, she will feel very happy.

Sure enough, Li Junhao tightened his grip on the file, his brows visibly twitched, "I'm very busy, what's the matter?"

"Actually, it's nothing. I just want to tell His Highness that I'm going back to the Prime Minister's Mansion today."

"Go back?" Li Junhao frowned slightly, deliberately ignoring the inexplicable sense of loss in his heart, "Your wounds are not healed yet, and you are not suitable for bumps."

"It's okay, there's a thick layer of quilt in the carriage, so it shouldn't be a big problem." This was really strange, she thought that this man would be eager to leave by herself, but she didn't expect to ask him to stay, he still has a bit of conscience.

Li Junhao frowned even tighter, "But what happened to the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

"No, the maid who served me said that there will be a banquet in the palace in a few days, and I have to go back to the mansion to prepare."

It was for this.

"Okay, I see." Li Junhao's voice was as cold as usual, without much emotion.

The corner of Fu Xuanrong's mouth twitched, and she asked tentatively, "My lord, have you forgotten something very important?"

You haven't given me the 1000 taels of silver!
Li Junhao raised his eyes in doubt, "What's the matter?"

"..." Damn, I really forgot, how should I remind you.

Fu Xuan scratched her ears and cheeks anxiously, and walked back and forth in the study for a few times, suddenly she had a flash of inspiration, and she smiled innocently at Li Junhao, "My lord, why don't I tell you a story."

Thinking of Fu Xuanrong's ability to brag about her bravery to the little maids a few days ago, Li Junhao subconsciously wanted to refuse, but when she thought that if she refused, she would immediately return to the Xiangfu, so she suppressed this idea again.

With a secret sigh, Li Junhao put down the case file in his hand, and said with some helplessness and connivance in his cold voice, "Say it."

Fu Xuanrong cleared her throat, "One day 1000 years ago, there were a thousand monks in a certain temple. They rang the bell and recited Buddha's name all day long. They sat in front of the Buddha for a whole thousand days and nights, and then they all had to Got it."

Seeing that Fu Xuanrong stopped suddenly, Li Junhao asked in puzzlement, "And then?"

"There's no more, I'm done." She said "one thousand" three times in a row. Does this man have some comprehension problems? No, he must be deliberately cheating!
"...This is your story?" It seems that he still overestimated this woman, and her mind still hasn't improved.

"Yes, my lord, don't you feel that something suddenly popped up in your mind, for example, you are inexplicably familiar with the word one thousand?"

"No." Li Junhao gave three cold words without hesitation.

I rely on!This man just wants to renege on his debts!
The majestic prince is actually reluctant to give 1000 taels of silver, what a bastard, Zhou Paopi!
With a mournful face, Fu Xuanrong looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh, as if she had aged ten years after being baptized by the years, "Forget it, I have to go, goodbye, my lord."

Better never see you again!

Li Junhao was quite displeased with Fu Xuanrong's inexplicable behavior, "What exactly do you want to say?"

"Go back to the lord, I didn't think about anything." Even if I thought about it just now, I don't think about it now, she has completely lost interest in this indifferent world.
