The vegetables and meat in front of me are indeed very good. No matter how picky you are, you can't say that the chicken is sick and the fish is dying. They are obviously excellent things. Look at the young man in front of you, he also has a look on his face. Feeling aggrieved and angry, it was obvious that he had been bullied, and yes, he had been slapped in the face. Of course, it was the head butler's face.

What's more, it's still the old person.

The butler's face darkened, and he looked very ugly, "Is that really what the kitchen said?"

"Butler, you really said that. If what I said is a lie, I will be struck by thunder and die!" The young man wiped away his tears and swore a poisonous oath.

This was more like the truth. The few servants in the outer courtyard couldn't help but get angry. They were all members of the butler, and they used to be convinced by the butler. When they saw that the people in the kitchen were treating the butler so slowly, How not to be annoyed.

"Housekeeper, please ask the steward in the kitchen."

"Butler, that Qingyue is the dowry of the princess."

"This is too presumptuous. Even when the prince is here, the affairs of the outer courtyard are still managed by the chief steward."...

Several young men said angrily, "You say something to me."

The butler shook his hand, and all the servants immediately stopped talking.

"Go and ask Qingyue who is next to the princess to come over." The chief steward ordered calmly.

"Yes, I will go now." A clever boy responded and ran inside.

"Thank you, Chief Steward. Thank you, Chief Steward. In fact... this is also a small mistake. If I had given it away at that time, why would it be like this." The young man kowtowed to the Chief Steward in gratitude and murmured.

"What to give?" a boy asked.

"This..." The young man consciously made a mistake and looked around, feeling uneasy because of the large number of people.

"Bring him here." The chief steward said, turning around and heading to an empty yard on the side.

Immediately a servant reminded the young man to follow him, while the others dispersed.

The butler did not enter the main room in the middle. He only sat down in front of the stone table in the yard. He looked deeply at the young man who followed him and tapped his fingers twice on the stone table: "Tell me, is there anything else?" Hidden secret!"

There were only the butler and two confidants in the yard. The young man looked around and suddenly took out a small brocade box from his arms and handed it over: "Butler, take a look at this!"

A boy took it and brought it to the stone table in front of the butler. The butler did not open it in a hurry, but looked at the young man up and down.

"Is this what they asked you for in their backyard?"

"Yes, it's actually Xiao Xiao's fault. When he came to deliver food before, he was looked at by others. When he came to deliver food today, someone asked Xiao Xiao for this thing. The slave didn't give it to him, so the man left with a sneer. , He said that if the slave didn’t give it, then he couldn’t even think about delivering the food properly, and then when he delivered it to the kitchen, something like that happened.”

"Who asked for it from you?" the butler said calmly.

"I don't know about the little one. She looks very ordinary. She is just an ordinary woman. I don't know if she is from the house. I was still doubting it at the time. But the thing on the little one accidentally dropped when delivering food. , the people I saw at that time were the people in the house, and they threatened me and prevented me from delivering food properly."

The young man thought for a while and smiled bitterly, "Actually, I didn't think much of it before. It might have nothing to do with the family, but I couldn't worry about it, so I just kept this thing in my arms. I didn't expect that someone would really miss Xiao Xiao." This thing is falsely accusing the little ones."

The young man became more and more aggrieved.

The butler stopped asking questions and focused his gaze on this old-looking brocade box.

This kind of brocade box is rarely seen outside, but it is not uncommon in the palace. It can even be said to be very common. It is stained by time and looks much older. There is still a hanging place on the corner. , there is a lock hanging on it, a little rusty.

"What is this?" the butler said solemnly.

"The little one doesn't know. It was given to me by my uncle. It was passed down from my ancestors. My uncle was sick before and was seriously ill, so he gave this thing to me. I happened to have it in my arms that day. It was inside, but the people in the house saw it, and they didn’t know what was inside. I originally wanted to go back and have a look, but my uncle said before that I wouldn’t let the little ones see it.”

As he spoke, the young man took out another key from his arms and handed it over respectfully.

A brocade box and a lock. If Shao Wanru hadn't done it before, the housekeeper would have opened it to take a look and inquire about the matter.

At this time, I didn't open it rashly. I just looked at it casually, weighed it in my hand, and then looked at the lock on it. It looked like it hadn't been opened for many years. , the embroidery traces have become lumpy. If you open the lock, the rust underneath will be damaged.

The lock must not have been opened for many years.

"Are you saying that someone in the house recognized this brocade box, thought there was something good in it, and wanted to get it from you?" the chief steward asked.

"I don't know... I don't know. In fact, if it hadn't been for my uncle's repeated instructions, it would have been okay to give this thing away." The young man scratched his scalp and said uneasily, feeling very confused, "Uncle I also told you to ask me to come to you if something happens, and that the big housekeeper will definitely protect me."

The butler is a man who misses old friendships.

"Let's stop here first. Qingyue belongs to the princess. You can come to deliver food as usual in the future. I've also sent people to the kitchen."

The chief steward said.

"Thank you, butler. Thank you, butler. Fortunately, I have a butler. Otherwise, I don't know where to go to intercede. It's actually the princess...it's actually the princess's person...little...little..." The young man I was grateful and panicked at the same time.

Anyone who offends the princess will feel panicked.

But these few words spoken at this time, combined with the previous words, can make people think differently.

Apart from the chief butler, the only one who can have hands and eyes in the house and can mobilize people in the kitchen is the princess. Since this is not the order of the chief steward, it is the princess's wish.

The butler's eyes fell on the brocade box, and he became thoughtful.

The young man didn't dare to talk and stayed quietly with the housekeeper.

Not long after, Qingyue followed a boy. After entering, she bowed to the butler: "Qingyue has met the butler."

"Are you Qingyue?" The chief steward looked Qingyue up and down. He was not familiar with the maids in the princess's inner courtyard, and Qingyue rarely left the inner courtyard.

"My servant is Qingyue." Qingyue said generously.

"Have you seen this person before?" the chief steward pointed at the young man delivering the food.

Qingyue turned her head and looked at him a few times, then nodded: "Qingyue has met him before. He was delivering food to the big kitchen. The food he delivered was not good, and he even quarreled with the people in the kitchen. With an arrogant and domineering attitude, Qingyue had his dishes thrown out and asked him to prepare new dishes, otherwise he would not be allowed to deliver food in the future."

"Did you know that it was the prince's intention for him to deliver food here?" the butler said with a hesitant expression.

"Qingyue doesn't know. Qingyue only knows that his food is not good. He can't let the master of the house eat these bad food and hurt his body!" Qingyue replied.

This peaceful and disapproving attitude irritated the butler. He slapped the table with his hand and said sternly: "A little maid, there are some things you should not reach out for. Someone, take her down. Give him ten sticks and then send him back to the inner courtyard!"

"Butler, the princess also knows about this." Seeing the two boys coming over to really pull her away, Qingyue became anxious and said hurriedly.

"She is indeed the princess." The young man delivering the food had a look of horror on his face.

"Even if you are a princess, you have to discuss it with me when the prince is not in the palace. You, a little maid, rely on the power of the princess to dare to interfere in the affairs of the palace casually." The butler became more and more annoyed. , scolded.

The two boys took Qingyue and dragged her down.

Qingyue shouted anxiously: "Housekeeper, this servant is the maid of the Princess, and she should be punished by the Princess. You are just a housekeeper of the outer courtyard, and you have no control over the affairs of the inner courtyard..."

The last sound was muffled, probably because he was gagged.

"Butler, this...this really involves the princess. Why don't you give...this box to the princess!" The young man delivering the food knelt down in panic and begged.

This matter has become a big deal right before your eyes! Even if he, a food delivery boy, had held his breath before and got angry and made a fuss in front of the butler, he would not dare to make any more fuss at this time.

The person involved here is the princess, not anyone else in the palace. He is just a small messenger who has to look at people's faces. How dare he really confront the princess.

"Princess, do you want this box?" The butler's eyebrows darkened, and there was a hint of sternness in his eyes. The aura of a person who has been the chief steward in the palace is naturally different from that of ordinary butlers.

"This... I don't know this little one. Maybe she's not the princess. Maybe the princess asked for it for her elders. Maybe she's the princess..." The young man delivering the food stammered and couldn't go on. He just kept looking at the big princess. The butler, with a begging look on his face, said, "Butler, please give the box to the princess, please!"

He looked so frightened that he didn't dare to cause trouble.

The big housekeeper sneered in his heart, this boy did a good job, if he didn't mention the princess from time to time, it would be even more like the elders of the princess.

He calculated his intentions carefully and unintentionally. If he hadn't had such a conversation with the princess before, he might really have fallen into the trap.

He is old, he is indeed old. He has lived peacefully in Prince Chen's Mansion for so many years. He has even lost his vigilance, which is why he almost let others take advantage of him.

These people are not only referring to the princess, but also to the eldest princess Ruian. For such an old box, if you insist on having a relationship with the princess, it is better to have a relationship with the princess's elders. Among the elders of the princess, it is easiest to have a relationship with her. The only person in the palace who has anything to do with it is Princess Ruian.

This is a chain link, starting from the smallest thing, making people unconsciously check it out and lead them by the nose?

The butler's eyes fell on the brocade box. This brocade box was somewhat similar to what he knew in his memory...
