[Crossing the Book] The Villain Regent's Substitute Princess

When Luo Qiuyi accepts greetings from a group of men and women, they are much more polite than before.

However, a prosperous figure in the crowd caught Luo Qiuyi's attention.

"What's your name?" Luo Qiuyi asked the beautiful man.

"The slave's name is Meng Chuan." The man replied respectfully.

Luo Qiuyi said coldly: "Don't you know that concubines cannot wear clothes of this color?"

According to the rules of their era, the color of clothes in the concubine's room should not overwhelm the main room.What's more, Meng Chuan is just a male favorite, and his status is not even as good as a concubine.Now Luo Qiu is wearing a delicate and elegant pink dress, but Meng Chuan is wearing bright red, which is obviously inappropriate.

"... Ah, the slave should die!" Meng Chuan immediately knelt down on the ground, his face ashen ashes, "The slave is a vulgar person, I really don't know this! I didn't pay attention for a while, and I hope the princess will forgive me!"

"Follow the house rules."

Luo Qiuyi wasn't sure whether he really didn't know or deliberately provoked, in short, since he followed Chen Chonglin's order to manage the inner house, of course he had to follow the rules, and he would forgive him for anything.Moreover, he made such a fuss just as soon as he started managing the inner house, so the possibility of doing it on purpose is not small.

"Come here, take off his coat, and then drag him down for twenty sticks."

Although Luo Qiuyi himself does not agree with the rules of corporal punishment in this era, since the rules have been established, he must strictly enforce them in order to achieve the purpose of control.As for whether you can try to improve the rules in the future, that is another matter.

Seeing that Meng Chuan had been dragged down, Luo Qiuyi got up and went back to his room before the execution was over.

He didn't take this matter too seriously at first, in his room, he read, wrote and wrote as he did a few days ago, and quickly passed the day.

Until the evening, a reminder sounded in his mind unexpectedly: [Chen Chonglin's favorability degree -5.Current favorability: 18. 】

...? ? ?What do you do to lose your favor?Obviously nothing happened!I didn't even fight him face to face!

After some thinking, Luo Qiuyi finally realized that this was the time for Chen Chonglin to come back from the outside; and what he did today, only scolding Meng Chuan in the morning caused waves.

Thinking so, Luo Qiu came to Meng Chuan's room to check the situation.

Sure enough, Chen Chonglin was visiting inside.

Meng Chuan lay on the bed, his eyes were red, and wept to Chen Chonglin: "My lord, I really didn't mean it!"

"I know, it's the princess who doesn't distinguish between indiscriminate and indiscriminate..." Chen Chonglin comforted in a soft voice, "You should rest well, all the wound medicines are given to you, and the pain will disappear soon after you apply it."

This gentle tone made Luo Qiuyi a little displeased, and couldn't help knocking on the door: "My lord, may I come in?"

"Princess?" Chen Chonglin recognized his voice, "Come in."

"My lord, do you blame me for doing something wrong?" Luo Qiu asked straight to the point.

"What? The king hasn't looked for you yet, so you came to ask Xingshi first?" Chen Chonglin stood up from Meng Chuan's bed, and looked at Luo Qiuyi unkindly.

"I just don't quite understand. I punished Meng Chuan according to the rules. What's the problem? I hope the prince will enlighten me."

"Go out and talk."

Chen Chonglin walked out of Meng Chuan's room, and Luo Qiuyi followed behind him.

"Meng Chuan did something wrong, but he came from a low background, so it's understandable that he doesn't understand these rules... The so-called ignorant is not guilty, can't you punish him lightly, and beat him to pieces like this?"

"Then how do I know if he really doesn't understand the rules?" Luo Qiu sneered, "Yesterday, my lord reminded me that some people know people, know their face, but don't know their heart. It turns out that the lord himself is so pitiful, always I can't see anyone crying."

"What? Are you doubting my king's ability to know people?" Chen Chonglin's face darkened when he heard this.

[Chen Chonglin's anger value +5.Current Rage: 15. 】

Fortunately, this time Luo Qiuyi didn't hear any system sounds that made him feel good.

However, he really found it annoying to go up and down like this, and obviously thought that he had initially figured out Chen Chonglin's temperament.

"I wonder if you understand the rhythm?" Chen Chonglin continued, "If you have heard Meng Chuan play the piano, you will know that he is not like Liu Hua."

"..." Luo Qiuyi knew that Meng Chuan was good at playing the piano and singing, and it happened that the protagonist of the original book, Shou Lin Junmiao, was also good at playing the piano. It was because of this that Chen Chonglin loved Meng Chuan very much.

It's just that from Luo Qiuyi's point of view, one of them plays high mountains and flowing water, and the other plays the melody, so how can they be compared?

"Okay, even if he really doesn't know, it's just that it's not stated in the rules that if he doesn't know, he can be punished lightly... I think the way of management is to strictly implement the rules in black and white. I don't know if the prince has a different opinion." Can you give me your opinion?"

"..." For a while, Chen Chonglin was a little speechless.

[Chen Chonglin's favorability degree +5.Current favorability: 23. 】

Oh, it's not easy, I finally added back the lost favor...

From this point of view, Chen Chonglin may not be as fond of using power to suppress people as he appears on the surface, on the contrary, he actually likes people who can discuss issues with him on an equal footing?

"The rules of this inner house are set by the housekeeper, and some of them are unreasonable. You can improve them after watching."

"Since the lord can give me this authority, I will do my best." Luo Qiu felt that Chen Chonglin was still willing to trust him, so he was not so unhappy.

"But you're new here after all, so you still need to discuss this with Steward Chen... Okay, I'll stay with Meng Chuan today, you can go back to your room."

"Yes, my lord."

Luo Qiuyi didn't expect Chen Chonglin to come to sleep with him every day, so he didn't care much about it.

However, did Meng Chuan really make mistakes unintentionally?He always felt that this matter might not be that simple.
