But Xiao Heng didn't have such an intention.
Moreover, Xiao Heng is not the kind of person who looks down on others. It’s not that he looks down on the Yang family. He just simply has his own opinions and is indeed capable.
He did a big thing the day he arrived, and then he also made a big splash in the Ji family's affairs.
This made Councillor Yang and all the officials in Yunnan understand that this prince was not the type to rely on anyone and he had his own way of doing things.
Councillor Yang originally wanted to cooperate, but Xiao Heng slapped him in the face without hesitation for his excessive interference and supported Su Yao.
This made Councillor Yang and Madam Yang realize that their daughter's chances of becoming the Crown Prince's Consort were not so certain.
However, since they received the news that Xiao Heng would come to Yunnan, the couple had told their daughter countless times about Xiao Heng's deeds and their expectations for their daughter. Besides, they also hoped that their daughter could become the Crown Prince's Consort. The court wanted to quell the rebellion, starting with the appointment of the Duke of Chengguo until now, which shows the court's determination. However, when the court really accomplishes this matter, will the status of the Yang family still be as stable as it is now
It's impossible. The imperial court is determined to make a major change in the bureaucracy in order to prevent the past from happening again.
Seeing Miss Yang San's attitude now, Madam Yang glanced at her daughter and did not scold her. She just rubbed her eyebrows and said, "Listen to what Madam Yang has to say. Why are you so anxious?"
Nanny Yang said respectfully, "It seems that the county lady and Young Master Ji are having a very pleasant conversation."
Miss Yang gritted her teeth and said, "Since she is so happy talking to him, she should just marry Master Ji! Why is she still being so unclear with His Highness? This vixen!"
Madam Yang glared at her daughter with a headache, but she still scolded her lightly: "Speak properly!"
Then he looked at Nanny Yang: "Is Young Master Ji's injury okay?"
Nanny Yang had already found out everything. She nodded affirmatively, "It's nothing. Although his arm is injured, he can still move freely. It's just that his left arm is a little inconvenient."
Madam Yang smiled and said, "Master Ji has really worked hard. Madam, do we still have tonic medicine?"
Nanny Yang also smiled and said, "Yes, they are all packed up now."
"Then find a suitable opportunity to send it over." Madam Yang instructed casually, and then raised her eyebrows and looked at Madam Yang: "The master just sent a message saying that there is an urgent military report. I guess everyone will be very busy today."
Nanny Yang understood and quickly said yes.
Madam Yang waved her hand and signaled that Nanny Yang should leave.
Miss Yang San was completely confused. She didn't understand what her mother and Madam Yang were talking about. She couldn't help but look at her: "Mother, what on earth are you talking to Madam Yang about? Why are you still thinking about sending tonic medicine to Ji Yunting?!"
Seeing her daughter getting angry, Madam Yang smiled and shook her head, "You don't need to know about this, little kid. Go and have fun. Don't worry about it anymore. Mother said that no woman in the world has a better fate than you. You are destined to be a superior person."
Miss Yang San grew up hearing these words, especially after meeting Xiao Heng, who was the most outstanding person she had ever seen in her life, so her desire for this matter was even greater than before. Now hearing her mother say this, she felt more relieved and pursed her lips and agreed.
Xiao Heng and the others had received an urgent military report. Su Yao also knew about it. It was a letter delivered by Qing Kun, saying that His Highness had received the news. After reading the letter, he took Su Rong and Tang Yuan out of the city, leaving Tang Qingfeng and the others to garrison at Ji's house, telling them not to worry as they might be gone for some time.
Mrs. Liao also sent a message, asking Su Yaoruo to tell her directly if he needed anything.
Originally, she was about to go back to the Governor's Office, but now the men have something to do, so naturally she has to stay in the Ji family for a few more days.
Su Yao had nothing to worry about, but she felt a little nervous.
If for no other reason, she wanted to ask why Xiao Heng stood in front of her for such a long time that day.
However, with important matters ahead of her, these things naturally had to be put aside for the time being. She tried hard to collect her thoughts, sat at the table, looked at the pot of gardenia on her desk, and sighed softly.
"The county lady is fine, why is she sighing?" Madam Yuan walked in with a smile. When she heard Su Yao sighing, she jokingly asked, "What's the matter?"
Su Yao hurriedly shook her head: "Nothing, I just suddenly have some free time and I don't know what to do for a moment." She stood up and asked Madam Yuan to sit down, and asked Madam Yuan if Niuniu was feeling better.
Madam Yuan looked much more relaxed. "Much better. I was really worried at first. But she hasn't had a fever yet and seems to be in good spirits. Just before I came over, I fed her half a bowl of porridge. She can eat and sleep well, so I'm relieved. I also want to thank the county lady. I was so scared that I lost my mind at that time. If you hadn't acted decisively, I would..."
Su Yao liked Madam Yuan's personality very much. She had suffered a lot, but she was not the kind of person who complained about everything. Madam Yuan never complained and treated the two children wholeheartedly. She shook her head and said, "Madam, you are being polite. Kang'er is obedient and sensible. Even Niuniu, although young, is very lovable. I am just doing my job."
The two talked for a while, and Mrs. Yuan said, "I came here to tell the county lady something."
Seeing her seriousness, Su Yao also became solemn: "Madam, please speak."
She thought Mrs. Yuan wanted her help with something.
Madam Yuan frowned, and seemed to be a little hesitant, but after a moment, she made up her mind, coughed, looked at Su Yao and said, "County Lady, we have come all the way to this point, and I admire you very much. You are the savior of me and the children, and I will not lie to you. I saw a maid from your yard go out today, and there were many valuable things in her bag. She is a maid, but she is temporarily arranged by the Ji family to do rough work for you, and she is definitely not a capable manager, so I want to remind you that you should be on guard."
She felt that the nanny might have received instructions from someone to get these benefits.
Otherwise, the maid would not have had the opportunity to steal Su Yao's valuable jewelry.
If I accepted something so valuable from someone else, what kind of thing could it be that would be worthy of such a generous reward
Mrs. Yuan couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Although saying it would offend the Ji family, she still ran over and told Su Yao specifically.
