Zhu Yan didn't raise his eyebrows and only responded lightly: "I only like to eat dishes made by Yuan Qiu. I am not used to food cooked by others. Thank you for your kindness, Madam. If you have nothing to do, please leave now!"
The old lady was choked half to death, but she couldn't say anything, and she didn't dare to say anything. She could only lead Chang Meifeng and a group of servants out of Yingyuexuan angrily.
The old lady couldn't help but wonder, if the person facing Prince Jing today was an old lady from another First-Rank Military Marquis Mansion, would Prince Jing's attitude still be the same
To put it bluntly, their Zhuo Mansion had little foundation in the capital, and their power in the court was not as good as before. Prince Jing looked down on her.
Thinking of this, the old lady felt a little regretful. She regretted her short-sightedness, regretted that she had been soft-hearted and listened to Chang Meifeng's plea, and actually helped Chang Meifeng to force Baili Yunyu to death. If Baili Yunyu was still there, at least The Baili ministers in the court will definitely support Zhong Hai, and the emperor will not treat him so coldly. Maybe the Prime Minister's Mansion and Prince Jing have already been connected, and the dignified old lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion will not show any dignity in front of Prince Jing. No.
She glanced at Chang Meifeng beside her, sighed and shook her head. It was too late to say anything now. Her son's future was ruined by her own hands. She had to swallow this bitter pill if she didn't want to.
The two left Yingyuexuan and were walking back to the main courtyard. Chang Meifeng saw the old lady looking unhappy and immediately fanned herself: "Mother, it's okay that His Highness Prince Jing doesn't take us seriously, but Look at Qin Yana's virtue, she is even more arrogant than Prince Jing. When she saw us entering the courtyard, she just refused to welcome us. She didn't even get up. She is really uneducated to the extreme."
The old lady glanced at Chang Meifeng and said very displeasedly: "Don't fan the flames of evil in front of me. Don't think that I don't know what happened in the front hall of the main courtyard this morning. You'd better take care of it." That nephew of yours, the most important thing is to pay attention to his morality."
The old lady didn't know what Chang Meifeng and Chang Li were secretly planning, and thought that Chang Li just wanted to live in the Prime Minister's Mansion to enjoy the autumn breeze. If she knew that the two of them were secretly planning how to damage the reputation of the Prime Minister's Mansion, she would be so angry that she would vomit blood.
Ying Yuexuan
As soon as His Highness Prince Jing left, Yuan Qiu gathered together all the servants, women and girls in the courtyard.
She raised the deed of betrayal in her hand and said in a calm voice: "Here is your deed of betrayal. From now on, I am your rightful owner. You must remember this clearly at the end. If you let me know that someone is playing tricks behind your back, I'm sorry, but I can't afford Ying Yuexuan, and the Prime Minister's Mansion can't keep it, so I have to sell it out. You know better than me what happens to the slaves sold out of the compound, so I advise you. Everyone, staying safe is the best way to save your life, do you understand?"
Among the servants, there were eight maids, two rough ladies, and two disciplinarian mothers. Four of the eight maids were confidants from each courtyard. They turned out to be second-class maids in each courtyard. Huan, who is quite favored, the two rude women are newly bought, and the two disciplining mothers are one is Mother Zhao who was transferred from Chang Meifeng Courtyard, and the other is Mother Sun from the Old Lady's Courtyard, both Zhuo The elderly in the mansion, especially Mrs. Sun, have been with Mrs. Chang for decades and have quite a bit of prestige in the mansion.
Seeing this situation, the eight maids and the four little girls in Ji Zhong who had just entered the house immediately expressed their loyalty. This time, they expressed their loyalty sincerely, and they recognized their master.
The other four were a little hypocritical, and Yuan Qiu didn't care. She had said everything she needed to say. How to do it and how to do it was their business.
