Reborn on the wedding night, the sickly prince was conquered by me
Chapter 140 Is this being abused?
Chapter 140 Is this being abused?
"What's going on here?" His voice could not help but sink.
Sensing that Mu Jinchuan's voice was different, Chu Luoyi raised her eyes and saw the bright red.
Yue Sichun hastily rolled down his cuffs, but unintentionally tugged at his neckline, revealing a large bruise.
Mu Jinchuan's eyes suddenly darkened.
Chu Luoyi narrowed her eyes.
With bruises all over her body, is she being abused?
"My lord is wrong, I'm fine." Yue Sichun hurriedly said, subconsciously looking at Chu Luoyi from the corner of her eye, with obvious meaning.
"I didn't hit you." Chu Luoyi said flatly, picked up the tea cup and took another sip.
"My lord, you want to make the decision for my side concubine." Wutong Dayi stepped forward and knelt down awe-inspiringly, saying with distress,
"The material for clothes made by the concubine has always been the best. Now that the concubine has changed the manager, she has replaced the material used by the concubine with the material used to make clothes for the maid."
"Pfft." Chu Luoyi sprayed out the tea she just drank.
What about waiting for her here?
"Indus, don't talk nonsense!" Yue Sichun's expression darkened immediately, and he scolded in a cold voice.
Then she smiled and looked at Chu Luoyi and Mu Jinchuan, "My lord, sister, I'm fine, maybe my body is too weak and I can't get used to it for a while."
"Where is the side concubine who can't get used to it? It's obviously because the fabric is rough."
Wu Tong said again, staring closely at Chu Luoyi, "Before, whether it was the concubine in charge or the prince in charge, the concubine's clothes were made of silk and jade silk brocade. Where have I seen this kind of linen cloth? clothes?"
"Princess, if you are dissatisfied with the side concubine, you can speak out, you don't have to use this method. The side concubine is delicate and expensive, if you use this kind of fabric for a long time, it will kill you."
Indus wiped the teardrops from the corners of his eyes, crying.
Yue Sichun's face turned pale in an instant, and he stepped forward and slapped Wutong hard, sullen.
"What nonsense are you talking about? How did I teach you? You forgot!"
"Side concubine, this servant loves you dearly. You bear with everything, if this servant doesn't speak out, won't you be bullied to the top."
Chu Luoyi sneered in her heart.
It seems that the newly appointed manager is also unreliable, and Mu Jinchuan's people have also been bought by Yue Sichun.
Mu Jinchuan looked at Yue Sichun, his voice was as deep as water, "Is what Wutong said true?"
"My lord, don't listen to her nonsense, my sister definitely didn't do it on purpose."
Yue Sichun's eyes flickered, he glanced at Chu Luoyi timidly, and quickly lowered his head.
"Come on, go and call the steward of the embroidery room." Mu Jinchuan ordered in a cold voice.
"Yes."
Viciousness flashed across Yue Sichun's lowered eyes, and the corners of his lips curled up.
Soon, Sun Xiao was brought over.
"What's the deal with the custom-made clothes for the side concubine?"
Mu Jinchuan's phoenix eyes were as dark as night, and there was a chill in them.
Sun Xiao was extremely calm, neither slow nor slow, cupping his hands and cupping his fists to salute,
"My lord, my subordinates purchase fabrics based on the silver taels allocated by the princess. In the past, the embroiderer who made clothes for the palace was in charge of Liu Guanshi, and after Liu Guanshi was dismissed, the embroiderer also left.
In order to keep them, the subordinates had to charge high prices, and the expenditure on fabrics was reduced a lot. "
"However, the fabrics of the prince and concubine have not changed, while the fabrics of the side concubine and the maid are a bit worse."
This sounds like an explanation.
The implication is that in order to treat Yue Sichun harshly, Chu Luoyi deliberately promoted the new manager with deep scheming.
Yue Sichun looked at Mu Jinchuan softly, with a weak voice,
"As long as the material of the prince's and sister's clothes has not changed, it will be fine. Although the material does not fit well now, I will gradually get used to it."
This is pitiful and embarrassing.
Mu Jinchuan's eyes sank inch by inch, and he looked at Chu Luoyi.
Before he could speak, Chu Luoyi chuckled and glanced at him lightly, "Blame me?"
Mu Jinchuan's eyes flickered slightly.
"Interesting." Chu Luoyi said two words lightly, got up slowly, and came to Sun Xiao, condescending, those cold eyes revealed a chilling chill, and the air around her was so oppressive that people could not breathe .
Her red lips parted slightly, "I remember that the purchase of silver taels was 3000 taels as you said."
"It was indeed 3000 taels at the time, but later Xiu Niang..."
"Xiu Niang?" Chu Luoyi interrupted him with a smile, but there was a chill on his face, "In such a huge capital, are there only a few xiu Niang?"
Sun Xiao was speechless.
"I dialed down 3000 taels, but did you say that you can only use these taels to cut clothes?" Chu Luoyi asked again.
"Never." Sun Xiao lowered his head.
"The embroidery room was originally used to cut clothes for the master, but now you restrict the clothes of the master, and it's for your guts?" Chu Luoyi's voice became more and more stern.
Sun Xiao didn't dare to speak anymore.
Yue Sichun's eyes changed slightly, and he hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him.
"Sister, I don't blame Guanshi Sun for this matter. He just took office and is not familiar with these things."
"Unfamiliar?" Chu Luoyi sneered disdainfully, "I remember you told me that day that the prince arranged for you to go to the embroidery room."
As soon as these words came out, it wasn't just the manager, Yue Sichun's expression changed instantly.
Originally, it was just that the manager was newly appointed and was not familiar with the embroidery room.
But according to Chu Luoyi's words, this is a serious crime of deceiving the master, and he will be imprisoned.
When Mu Jinchuan heard the words, he instantly understood, his handsome face was covered with a chill.
"Your lord looks like this, you don't even know when you arranged someone to enter the embroidery room?" Chu Luoyi teased.
Yue Sichun clenched his fists tightly, with a slight smile on his delicate face,
"My sister is serious. When Steward Sun was in charge of my house, I discussed it with the prince. It was arranged by the prince. It may be that Steward Sun didn't make it clear that day."
"So that's how it is." Chu Luoyi suddenly realized.
"According to what the side concubine said, Sun Xiao shouldn't just be a newcomer, he should have stayed in the embroidery room for a long time, how could he get the most basic things wrong?" The corners of her lips curled slightly,
"The person promoted by the side concubine can't prepare such a rough cloth for you. Isn't that ungrateful?"
"This..." Yue Sichun smiled, "Now that I'm my sister's housekeeper, of course the family will regard you first."
Chu Luoyi smiled, and looked at Mu Jinchuan questioningly, "My lord, tell me how to deal with it?"
Mu Jinchuan narrowed his eyes, his whole body was filled with a dangerous atmosphere.
"The steward will be dismissed and re-elected from the embroidery room. All the embroiderers will be replaced and the embroiderers will be hired again."
The words are very short, but every word reveals a chill.
Yue Sichun panicked suddenly, and wanted to stop him, but he didn't dare to speak.
The steward's face turned pale.
"Then follow what the prince said." Chu Luoyi said lightly.
"Leave this matter to the princess." Mu Jinchuan said warmly.
"En." Chu Luoyi nodded.
Her eyes fell on Sun Xiao, her red lips were slightly raised, but there was a coolness on her face.
"Where is the roster of embroiderers in the embroidery room?" she asked.
"Yes." Sun Xiao shivered suddenly, feeling an ominous premonition in his heart.
Chu Luoyi smiled, "Bring it here, I'd like to see what kind of embroiderer she is. She's asking for a lot of money, which will cause the side concubine's clothing expenses to decrease."
"This..." Sun Xiao suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and repeatedly looked to Yue Sichun for help.
