After about a stick of incense, Baihui went to the West Side Hall.

Ye Yinming, who had been waiting for a while, saw Baihui coming, but he could not see the young man surnamed Shen. He already had some kind of guess in his heart, and his face was not very good-looking.

Baihui blessed the remaining five people, and said politely, "I'll keep you all waiting. The candidates for the accountant have been decided. I'm bothering you all!" As she spoke, she gave the little maid next to her a look. The little maid politely handed each of the five people a red envelope, which was considered a little apology for delaying them for a long time.

Ye Yinming took over the red seal in humiliation, and felt unbelievable in his heart, how could he lose the election! ? He believes that he will never lose to anyone in talent!

Seeing that the other four walked out of the west side room under the guidance of the maid, Ye Yinming took two or three steps towards the door, but he couldn't help but stop and called Baihui: "This girl, please stop !"

Baihui stopped, looked at him suspiciously, and said, "I wonder if Young Master Ye has any advice?"

Ye Yinming took a deep breath, clasped his fists and asked, "Dare to ask why the girl was defeated? I believe that I will not lose to that son Shen in math, could it be... Could it be because of the Yellow Crane Tower..."

He gritted his teeth and asked again. If he can't lose a clear understanding, he is really not reconciled.

Baihui was stunned, and immediately remembered the Yellow Crane Tower. It was just a one-sided relationship. She didn't remember Ye Yinming for a long time, but Que'er had some unforgettable skills in remembering people, and she had already mentioned it to her. Baihui didn't take it too seriously when she heard it, but since the other party cared about the trivial matter at the time that was almost unworthy of discord, of course she had to say it clearly, so as not to let the reputation of the prince and the prince be slack.

Baihui rationalized her thoughts and said, "Young Master Ye's arithmetic is indeed outstanding." The remaining six people actually answered all the questions on the previous paper correctly, and among them Ye Yinming and Shen Chengye were the fastest and the fastest among them. good two.

"It's just that Bixiaotang wants to hire Mr. Accountant today, not to hold an arithmetic competition." Baihui said implicitly but meaningfully. Seeing that the other party was still at a loss, she simply pointed out the words, "After Mr. Ye finished the paper, did you check it again?"

Ye Yinming shook his head: "Girl, you are confident below..."

He wanted to say that he was confident that he would never make a mistake, but he didn't say it halfway through. He thought of what Baihui said in front of him that seemed to have a deep meaning.

Although it was only a few words, Baihui had already realized that this person was arrogant and arrogant. Seeing that he realized it, she didn't say anything more.

Their Bixiaotang recruited the accountant, and they were not trying to do the math faster than anyone else. This Ye Yinming had more than half of a stick of incense when he finished the problem. Looking at the paper, with his mentality, how can he be the accountant. Accounting is all about dealing with numbers and accounts every day. If you do too much, there will always be mistakes. You need not only self-confidence, but also care and patience.

But because he was really proficient in arithmetic, he was left behind, but in the inquiries just now, he always showed some pride in his talents.

Again, the Bixiaotang recruited Mr. Accountant!

Ye Yinming was stunned for a while, then he clasped his fists and said in a stiff tone: "Thank you for your advice!" He followed him almost impatiently.

Baihui looked at his back and shook her head, thinking that there would be no interaction in the future, so she quickly forgot this person and returned to the East Side Hall to serve.

Ye Yinming returned to a small house he rented in the west of the city with a low expression, and his sister Ye Yili immediately greeted him.

"Brother, you're back!" Ye Yili keenly found that her brother's expression was wrong. She was confident in her brother's talent and knowledge, and always believed that he would be hired by the prince and the prince, but now it seems that something happened in the middle. Unpredictable errors.

Ye Yili didn't ask any further questions, she showed a gentle smile and said, "Brother, lunch is almost ready."

The thoughtful behavior of the younger sister only made Ye Yinming more guilty. Now that the food at home is running out, they rely on the younger sister to make some embroidery to supplement the family. How could a manly man rely on his sister to support his family!

"Sister..." Ye Yinming took a deep breath and told the story again, with a trace of humiliation and unwillingness on his face.

He thinks he has done the best, but he just doesn't get it... Hey, if he got that daughter, not only will his family finances not be a problem for a few years, but he can also change to a better house, so that his grandmother and sister can live a better life ...

With Ye Yinming's remarks, Ye Yili's eyes flickered, but she didn't expect her brother to "lose" like this.

After she pondered for a moment, she comforted her: "Brother, your talented younger sister understands the most, and she will definitely have a bright future." She comforted her brother softly, but there was something in her heart...

Ye Yinming clenched his fist tightly, gritted his teeth and said, "Sister, don't worry, I will definitely support this family." How can he continue to rely on his sister any more! He didn't believe that with his own talent, he couldn't find a suitable job!

Ye Yili sighed secretly in her heart, her elder brother was a scholar after all, and he was arrogant and did not know the hardships of the world.

The two brothers and sisters entered the house side by side, and greeted Aunt Ye's loving and kind face, and the family was happy...

After lunch, Ye Yili changed into an 80% new cyan dress and quietly went out to Bixiao Hall.

She planned to go to see the prince concubine Nangong Yue to talk for her brother.

The elder brother never knew about her and her grandmother's acquaintance with the Concubine Zhennan. When her elder brother was seriously ill, she and her grandmother were worried that because of his arrogant and arrogant temperament, if he knew that the family had no money, he would not be willing to treat the disease, so they discussed it. Well, let's hide it from him.

Just like this time, if my brother knew that she came to beg the princess, he would definitely stop her.

But my brother didn't know that the family was really about to open the pot, and the food for lunch today was the rice noodles that my grandmother bought as her dowry. As long as you can find a suitable livelihood, what is dignity worth... Ye Yili said to herself, after all, when she was in the capital, the imperial concubine had promised to help her...

An hour later, she entered Bixiao Hall through Baihui, and Baihui led her to the Small Flower Hall.

The weather in June is hot and dry. Even though the sky is a little gloomy today, it is very sultry and there is no wind.

As soon as she entered the small flower hall, Ye Yili felt a cool and refreshing feeling, which made people feel refreshed. She glanced around without a trace for a week, and found several copper basins filled with ice cubes placed near the window and doorway, emitting plumes of white smoke.

Nangong Yue sat on the mahogany armchair in the master seat, drinking fruit tea leisurely.

Ye Yili straightened her waist, stepped forward, and bowed her knees to Nangong Yue without being humble or arrogant: "I have seen Concubine Shizi. Concubine Shizi, stay safe."

"Miss Ye, please take a seat." Nangong Yue looked at her with a smile and motioned her to sit down.

Nangong Yue probably guessed why Ye Yili came. Although she didn't see Ye Yinming, Baihui showed her the list of the six people after the first test today. I have to say that the name Ye Yinming surprised Nangong Yue, and later learned from Baihui that they had already had a relationship in the Yellow Crane Tower. Xiao Yi really has a bit of "bad luck".

Ye Yili took a deep breath and said straight to the point: "Prince Concubine, Yili is here today to ask for something, for Yili's brother Ye Yinming."

Nangong Yue showed an appropriate look of surprise: "So it's a coincidence that Young Master Ye is Miss Ye's brother."

Ye Yili bowed and said, "Concubine Shizi, Yili is not arrogant, but her elder brother is a talented person. Can Concubine Shizi open up and give her brother a chance?"

Although she was begging, there was a hint of pride in her tone.

Nangong Yue pondered for a while, and said, "Miss Ye, your brother is indeed talented, but I have already hired Young Master Shen as the accountant, so it's not easy to go back on my word, or would your brother be willing to help the accountant?"

assist? Wouldn't that be a fight for others... Ye Yili frowned slightly, Nangong Yue had always been kind to her, she thought that Nangong Yue would not reject her this time, but she didn't expect the other party to give her such a reply.

Her elder brother is someone who is going to be a jinshi in the future, and his talent is by no means comparable to that of a mere accountant. Even if the elder brother agrees with the humiliation, she can't bear it!

But the problem now is that there is no rice to cook at home, and the elder brother still has to study. Even if the elder brother is smart, he was exempted from repairing by the mountain chief of Qingmao Academy, so they moved their family to Luoyue City, but they were in Luoyue City. After all, I am not familiar with the land of life. Although I do embroidery work for others, I still cannot make ends meet, and my family is worrying.

If it goes on like this, I'm afraid it will delay my brother's study...

Ye Yili half bowed her head and did not speak for a while, and Nangong Yue did not urge her.

Suddenly, Ye Yili raised her head with a resolute look on her face, she stood up and said to Nangong Yuefu: "Prince Concubine, Yili is willing to sell herself to the palace, sign a five-year living contract, and hope that Concubine Shi will be fulfilled. !" She kept her knees bent, her eyes half lowered, waiting for Nangong Yue's answer.

"Miss Ye," Nangong Yue said slowly, her tone was gentle but firm, "I can't agree with you on this matter."

What? ! Ye Yili's pupils shrank in disbelief.

rumbling—

There was a sound of thunder outside, and then raindrops the size of beans fell down in big pieces, hitting the eaves, leaves, and walls, making a loud crackling sound.

But Ye Yili didn't notice at all. Her attention was focused on Nangong Yue's words. She couldn't help but raised her eyes and looked at Nangong Yue. At one point, she felt that there was a hint of sharpness in the eyes of the other party, she always thought that the other party was a kind and soft-hearted woman, and it was only at this moment that she realized that she was very wrong...

"Miss Ye, the palace has the rules of the palace..." Nangong Yue continued, "If Miss Ye needs a job, I can arrange for her..."

"Thank you for your kindness!" Ye Yili interrupted Nangong Yue coldly, with a hint of hatred in her suppressed eyes. She begged Nangong Yue like this, but she never expected that Nangong Yue would reject her again and again! Obviously, for Nangong Yue, all this was just a little effort.

Ye Yili just felt like a hole was broken in her heart, and the cold wind blew in.

That's right, she is the prince and concubine of Zhennan, and when she is willing to help you, she will throw a copper plate to you like a beggar; if she is not willing, there are thousands of ways to humiliate you!

Ye Yili was blessed again, and she avoided her eyes: "Then Yili will not disturb the imperial concubine, and leave now!"

She just walked to the threshold and couldn't help but pause.

The bean-sized raindrops outside were getting denser and denser, and the ground was mostly wet. The little maid in Tsing Yi who was serving on the side immediately opened the paper umbrella smartly and said with a smile, "Miss Ye, please come with the servant."

The little maid in Tsing Yi led Ye Yili out of the small flower hall. The two gradually drifted away in the rain, and their figures soon became blurred...

Que'er suddenly sighed, "Prince Concubine Shi, this servant knows what Doumian raises rice feud!" It seemed that he had helped too much before, and it had fattened people's hearts.

Nangong Yue pursed her lips and said nothing.

Not to mention the palace, even anyone with a little discipline would not use a servant who only signed a live contract.

Moreover, living deeds and deeds of death are not the focus of this matter. This girl Ye's attitude of "respecting and humiliating and bearing the burden of humiliation" really doesn't look like she is here to be a slave. Her self-esteem is so strong that she doesn't dare to be her master...

The little maid in Tsing Yi accompanied Ye Yili all the way out of Dongyi Gate, and then came to the corner gate.

"Miss Ye, this umbrella is not as good as..."

The little girl wanted to give this umbrella to Ye Yili, but before she could finish her words, she saw that Ye Yili had already rushed into the rain with her head covered.

The dense rain curtain made the surrounding look hazy, and the raindrops fell down the corners of her eyes and eyelashes, blurring her eyes, and even her mind was a little dazed...

Although she decisively rejected Nangong Yue's other arrangements just now, in fact, she has no idea what to do next!

Ye Yili trotted with her head covered in the rain, but she didn't want a red horse to suddenly appear at the intersection in front of her. The man on the horse suddenly restrained the rope. For a moment, the horse neighed and her two front legs were even higher. rise……

Ye Yili staggered in shock, fell to the ground, raised her eyes and stared blankly at the tall horse's hoof, unable to react any more.

"My lord!" Chang Sui, who was riding behind him, also appeared, and was about to ask if King Zhennan was okay, but he saw King Zhennan raised his hand and signaled him to keep silent.

King Zhennan jumped off his horse neatly, threw the horse rope for a long time, and looked at Ye Yili, who was sitting on the ground with burning eyes, and asked softly, "This girl, are you alright?"

In the rain curtain, Ye Yili's dress was almost all wet, and a few strands of jet-black blue silk were wet on her cheeks. .

Lord... Hearing Chang Sui's address to King Zhennan, Ye Yili immediately understood the identity of the other party, and stared at him with wide eyes in astonishment.

The frightened eyes of the other party's deer-like eyes made King Zhennan tremble in his heart. He stared at Ye Yili's beautiful and elegant face and eyes as clear as spring water without blinking, and his eyes became more and more fiery.

slam-la-

The rain is still pouring down...

...

The next day, just after Nangong Yue finished her lunch, Queer, who had not been seen all morning, suddenly came with a mysterious expression.

Seeing Que'er's expression, not only Nangong Yue knew what she knew, but the other maids also guessed that Que'er must have some wonderful news to share, and they also gathered around and listened.

After Queer bowed her knees and saluted, she reported, "Prince Concubine Ye, that son Ye Yinming was appointed by the lord early this morning as the secretary of the palace."

Shuzuo, the writing of the main document, although it is not a small official, but for a scholar who has no fame, it can be regarded as "one step to the sky".

Nangong Yue raised her eyebrows slightly in surprise. Although Ye Yinming was named the champion in the previous life, it was several years later.

The other maids also looked suspicious and looked at each other, and followed them to focus on Que'er.

Que'er couldn't hide her pride and puffed out her chest. After sorting out her thoughts, she said with a strange expression: "Yesterday, after Miss Ye went out from the gate of East Street, the prince just came back, and Miss Ye was almost hit by the prince's horse. After being a little frightened, the lord ordered someone to help Miss Ye back to the palace, and also sent someone to invite Young Master Ye to pick up Young Lady Ye... According to Bai Shao, who was serving in the study outside the lord, the lord and Young Master Ye were there yesterday. After talking for an hour in the study, I was impressed by Ye Gongzi's talent, and this was the appointment!"

The maids looked at each other again, with different expressions, either startled, suspicious, sarcastic or laughing.

Nangong Yue's brows were raised even higher, and she had to say that the development of this matter was beyond her expectations.

But she didn't care too much. Anyway, what happened to Ye Yinming's brothers and sisters in the future has nothing to do with her.

It's a magpie...

Nangong Yue glanced at Que'er more, and the corner of her mouth was slightly hooked. It seemed that this girl had already gotten along well in the palace.

At this time, Baihui came back from the front yard, blessed Nangong Yue, and said, "Prince Concubine, the account room has been set up properly."

After talking with Shen Chengye yesterday, Nangong Yue asked Zhu Xing to arrange for him to temporarily live in a small yard with a second entrance in the back room, and also assigned a rough maid to serve him.

Shen Chengye was only in his teens when Shen Ping died, and he didn't know anything about the old prince's care for the orphan. The only thing he knew was that his father killed himself and his mother left the southern border with him in a hurry.

Although Nangong Yue was a little disappointed, she was more or less expected. Anyway, there would be a day when things would come to light, and she was not in a hurry.

Shen Chengye also asked about the cause of his father's death at the time, but Nangong Yue didn't say anything, just let him settle down first.

At this time, after hearing Baihui's reply, Nangong Yue nodded slightly and said, "Go and fetch the account book on my case and send it to the account application room, you don't have to say anything, wait until he reads it. return."

Baihui responded.

Nangong Yue, on the other hand, was leaning on the beauty's couch and watching "Southern Border Geography". Although she had read this book once, but she just flipped through it casually. Now that Xiao Yi has gone to the southeast border, Nangong Yue will He took out the book again.

Turning to the page with the bookmark, Nangongyue looked down carefully. When she saw "the southeastern swamp is densely covered with miasma...", she frowned slightly and said, "Thrush, go to my study Bring "Hundred Herbs from the Southern Border"."

"Yes, Concubine Shizi."

Soon, "Baicao in the Southern Border" arrived in Nangong Yue's hands, she was flipping through it, and Baihui came back.

"Prince Prince." Baihui said, "The account room has already read the account book."

Nangong Yue put down the book in her hand, raised her eyes and asked, "What did he say?"

Baihui replied one by one: "The accountant said that this is a fake account."

Nangong Yue smiled. It was less than an hour before Baihui took the account book to the account application room. In other words, the account application room didn't actually check the account book carefully before coming to this conclusion.

Nangong Yue asked, "What else?"

Baihui conveyed word for word: "From the book, this should be the account book of a village in the south of the Yangtze River, and the time is the third year of the Ming calendar. That year, the weather in Jiangnan was good and there were no major disasters, but according to the account book, A Zhuangzi with 300 acres of paddy fields could only earn 520 taels of silver back then, this is absolutely impossible.”

Nangong Yue nodded slightly in agreement, thought for a while and said, "You take all the account books of Tianshui Village over the years to the account application room, and then ask Zhu Xing to find the local county annals and give them to him together..." She paused. After a pause, he said, "Let him rewrite the account book of Tianshui Village for the third year of the Ming calendar."

Baihui was slightly surprised, but she did not ask any further questions, and bowed in response.

"Queer." Nangong Yue smiled and beckoned to Queer, and said, "You will bring some snacks and beads to the little sisters you know. The son of Shen Da's steward is checking accounts in Bixiao Hall. Get it out..."
