Was the whole group wiped out in the previous life? Reborn to drag the crippled king into the bridal

Amber replied with a smile, "Because he has a good plan, and he became the manager on his own."

The Prince Yu's Mansion is so big that there are more than a hundred servants in the mansion, and there are more than a dozen managers alone.

Soon after Chu Xuan returned to Beijing, he asked Wuying to investigate all the people in detail so that he would have a better idea when hiring people in the future.

The servants seemed to be fine and it was difficult to tell whether they were spies, but the steward could tell whether they were the housekeeper's men.

Among these more than ten managers, many are related to Wei Zhengde. They are either related to him or are his acquaintances.

Before Mo Zhaohua took over the household management of the mansion, Chu Xuanchi gave her the results of Wuying's investigation, which were written in great detail.

"Although the position of a steward is far inferior to that of a housekeeper, it is not easy to get this position because there are too many people and too little meat. This shows that he has real ability."

It was for this reason that Mo Zhaohua chose Cui Zhuo as one of the candidates, and also the person she liked the most, but his family conditions were really not good.

Cui Zhuo's father died early, and his widowed mother worked hard to raise him. Now he is suffering from a chronic illness, and his family is penniless, and he has not yet found a husband.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to, but it takes a lot of money to get married. He still owes medical bills, so few people are interested in him.

And those who are interested in him are not that good either. It would be okay if they are ugly, but the worst thing is that they have problems with their health or character.

For example, a woman may be infertile, have a hidden illness, or have a bad reputation, or even worse, she may have already lost her virginity and is anxious to find a father for her child.

Amber agreed, "That's right. Many of these stewards in the mansion are more or less related to Steward Wei."

Pearl whispered, "So Mr. Cui must have something extraordinary to become the steward. That's why I think he is a good candidate."

Mo Zhaohua immediately made the decision, "Then it's Cui Zhuo. I'll talk to him about this this afternoon and ask him to prepare so that you can have your good fortune done before the New Year."

Pearl was stunned for a moment when she heard this, "So fast?"

Mo Zhaohua blinked, "If you don't hurry up, how can you have a baby soon?"

Pearl said coquettishly and shyly, "My Lady, why are you teasing me again..."

The more she acted like this, the more Mo Zhaohua wanted to tease her, "You're shy again, you're really shameless."

Amber was also there to watch the fun, "That's right, we're all family, why are you so shy?"

Pearl said, "I will wait and see how you face the princess asking you to choose a husband after you reach the age of marriage. Will you blush?"

Amber was in high spirits, "What if I didn't blush?"

Pearl even made a bet with her, "I'll do needlework for you for a month."

Amber also became interested and excited, "You said this yourself. Princess, please be our witness."

Mo Zhaohua kindly reminded, "I advise you not to make this bet. Don't forget that you blushed just now."

Amber raised her hand and wiped her face, "Does this servant have any?"

Huaying has always been a man of few words, and suddenly asked to confirm, "Yes!"

Amber gave up the bet without even telling the jackpot, "Then I won't bet."

Mo Zhaohua was in high spirits when he was happy, and since there were no outsiders around, he laughed even more wildly than usual, "Haha..."

***

in the afternoon.

Mo Zhaohua went to the main hall in the front yard.

A tall, thin and handsome man was standing in the hall.

This person was Cui Zhuo. He bowed respectfully and said, "I pay my respects to the princess."

After Mo Zhaohua sat down, he spoke calmly, "Manager Cui is already twenty-four this year, right?"

At this age, most men would have been married and had children, but his seriously ill mother had drained away all his family wealth.

"Princess, yes." When Cui Zhuo heard her ask about his age, he guessed that she might be arranged to marry him.

The whole palace knew that the princess was going to marry her maid Zhenzhu off as a dowry, and some people even tried to show their affection to her.

But Zhenzhu kept herself clean and never had any private contact with men other than for business, and she never accepted any gifts from them.

Mo Zhaohua confirmed with him, "Has your family arranged a marriage for you?"

Cui Zhuo told the truth, "I haven't arranged a marriage yet. I'm heavily in debt, and my widowed mother is seriously ill. No one dares to marry me."

His honesty and humility made Mo Zhaohua more optimistic about him. "Then how about the prince and I arrange a marriage for you?"

Cui Zhuo immediately knelt down and said, "I will leave it to the prince and princess to decide."

"This is Zhenzhu, my only maidservant in the dowry, and also the best maid in the mansion. She is seventeen years old. Are you willing to marry her?"

Although everyone in the mansion knew Mo Zhaohua's favorite maid Zhenzhu, she still introduced her solemnly.

"Thank you, Princess." Cui Zhuo kowtowed loudly on the bluestone floor, and the sound could be heard clearly.

As a manager, he had many opportunities to see Mo Zhaohua, and Zhenzhu was always by his side, so he actually had some feelings for her.

It's just that he never thought about it. Instead, he regarded her as an unattainable goddess in his dreams, and only hoped that she could find a good man and live happily together.

Now that happiness has struck him, he can't help but be overjoyed. Not to mention kowtow once, he would be willing to kneel and kowtow a hundred times.

Mo Zhaohua said sternly: "Don't thank me yet, I have something to say first."

Cui Zhuo knelt on the ground and said, "Princess, please speak. I am listening."

"Zhenzhu is different from other maids in the mansion. She grew up with me, so our relationship is different. I will never let her suffer any injustice."

Mo Zhaohua had already vowed that he would protect the people he cared about in this life and try his best to make them live a happy and fulfilling life. Zhenzhu was one of them.

"Although I am in debt, I am hardworking and have a skill. I am willing to give all my earnings to Miss Pearl to manage."

Cui Zhuo was so happy that Mo Zhaohua took a fancy to him and betrothed Zhenzhu to him that he wanted to give her his heart, let alone money.

However, Mo Zhaohua said, "Money is important in life, but I value character the most. The man who marries Pearl must treat her well."

Cui Zhuo kowtowed again and said, "I would like to put Zhenzhu first in everything and try not to let her worry about trivial matters in life."

Mo Zhaohua asked, "It's easier said than done. Now you say it so well, but if you can't do it in the future, what will you do?"

Cui Zhuo immediately raised his hand and swore, "If I break my promise, I will be punished by the princess. If I break this oath, I will be struck by lightning and my body will be left in the wilderness."

Zhenzhu couldn't bear it any longer, "Master Cui, you don't have to make such a serious oath."

She had met Cui Zhuo many times, although they had never had any private communication, but his appearance, character and abilities were enough to make her heart moved.

But like Cui Zhuo, she had never thought about getting married, so when Mo Zhaohua asked her in the morning if she had someone in love, she did not admit it.

Seeing that Zhenzhu was anxious and Cui Zhuo was sincere, Mo Zhaohua said nothing more, "Okay, I will trust you this time. I hope you won't let me down."
