The new winter clothing was distributed in the fu. The servants found that the winter clothing this year was made of the same material as the previous years, but it was much thicker. Everyone had an extra layer of clothing. Every one of them was overjoyed, thinking inside that the fu was different with a mistress. Even the living standards of the rough servants like them had increased.
Xiao Gan Zi held in his hands the toys that the servants had given him. There was a smile on his face as he said to the little taijian beside him: "Look at everyone in this fu smiling, it's like it's the new year." He knew very well that this wang fu looked like it was full of flowers, but the servants at the bottom could only eat their fill. Compared to the servants in front of their mistress, it was the difference between heaven and earth. No wonder these people were so happy when they received a little bit of benefit.
"It's not that wang fei is benevolent, it's that ge and the two chief stewards have managed well," The taijian carefully following him said with a fawning smile, "A few days ago, some of the stewards were severely punished by wang fei. They didn't dare to have any complaints and were very obedient. Now, who in the fu dares to cause trouble for the servants without reason?"
"What are they? If wang fei punishes them, then punishes them. Even if she wants their lives, they can only blame their bad luck," When Xiao Gan Zi said this, he glanced at the taijian in front of him, "You are also one of my subordinates. Remember, this houyuan is decided by wang fei. If you do something stupid, don't blame gege for not protecting you."
"Gege, don't worry, don't worry," The little taijian received Xiao Gan Zi's reminder and was moved to tears, "This one will definitely listen to gege and not do anything stupid."
Xiao Gan Zi nodded in satisfaction. He might not be as useful as Qian Chang Xin and Ming He, but he was still someone that wang ye was used to. Right now, wang ye clearly wanted to promote wang fei. Wang fei was also a swift and decisive person. That move was so fast that even he hadn't realized it.
What warning, what diplomacy before violence, it wasn't necessary. First it was a good beating. After scaring the people, it was easier to deal with. Those people had assumed that wang fei would be restrained because of wang ye's thoughts. Even he had thought so. So when the incident had happened, he had found an excuse to leave the fu to avoid trouble. Who knew that Wang Fei would directly dispose of him without even informing Wang Ye. When wang ye spent the night in zhengyuan and went to court the next morning feeling refreshed, he knew that Qian Chang Xin and Ming He had picked up a big bargain.
Their skills weren't as good as others, so it was no wonder that these two had the most face in front of wang ye. Xiao Gan Zi sighed. In the future, he had to be more careful. Even if he couldn't compare to Qian and Ming, at least he couldn't let others replace him.
In the garden of the Wang Estate, Huang Yang was hurriedly walking when a sweet-looking maidservant came from the opposite direction. She kept calling out to Huang Yang gege and blocked his way.
Huang Yang was unhappy, but his expression was normal as he asked, "Sister, may I ask what's the matter?"
The little yahuan didn't dare to accept him as jiejie. If it was before, it wouldn't have been a problem, but now, who in the fu didn't know that he was the most favored taijian in front of wang fei? As she smiled and said she didn't dare, she said: "Huang Yang gege, our mistress has been sick these past few days. She hasn't gotten better even after calling the doctor. Please, please put in a good word for my mistress in front of wang fei, and let wang fei send an invitation to the Imperial Hospital?" Finishing, she shoved a pouch into Huang Yang's hand.
Huang Yang saw that she looked unfamiliar and didn't take the pouch. He put his hands behind his back and his voice became more serious: "Who is your mistress?"
The little yahuan saw that Huang Yang didn't take it and was anxious but helpless. She could only say: "Good gege, I serve beside Yun Qing guniang. Please ask for wang fei for my mistress. I will thank you first." Finishing, she gave Huang Yang a deep bow.
"Where did this yahuan serve?!"
The little yahuan heard this voice and turned her head to look. She saw wang ye walking over with Qian Chang Xin and Ming He. The one who spoke was Ming He. She instantly became joyful and knelt with a bang: "Nubi Yu'er, this is Yun Qing guniang's maidservant. Nubi greets wang ye."
He Heng slowly walked closer, slightly lowering his head to look at Yu'er kneeling by his feet. He then looked at Huang Yang: "What is going on?"
Huang Yang bowed and said: "Wang ye, this Yu'er guniang says that Yun Qing guniang is sick and wants nucai to report to wang fei and have wang fei send an invitation to the Imperial Hospital to invite a taiyi to take a look at Yun Qing guniang."
He Heng furrowed his brows and unhesitatingly left. Qian Chang Xin hurriedly followed.
Ming He, who was left behind, looked disdainfully at Yu'er. He said with a smile that wasn't a smile: "Yun Qing guniang is probably muddle-headed from her illness. In our fu, other than wang ye and wang fei, only ce fei and proper qieshi can invite taiyi. Who is she to invite a taiyi?"
When she had been sent into the fu, didn't she say with a face full of virtuousness that she would rather be a poor person than a rich person's qie? A brothel girl that had been sent in really thought she was the young miss of a prestigious family. With that status, it was already giving face to the daren that had given her the gift to be a tongfang. She didn't want to be a qieshi in the wang fu, what big dreams were those? Now that she was sick, the doctors outside the fu weren't qualified to serve her, and she needed a taiyi? What kind of thing was that!
Ming He snorted and walked away. Huang Yang looked at the dazed Yu'er, his expression unchanging as he said: "Go back and tell your master, since this doctor is useless, then change to another doctor. If there's anything missing, go tell Mu Jin guniang. I have other matters to attend to and will leave first."
After Huang Yang had walked a dozen steps away, Yu'er finally reacted. She looked dazedly in the direction that wang ye had left. She somewhat understood why the surrounding people had looked at her with pity when she had been sent to Cui You Yuan to serve. So wang ye didn't care about zhuzi at all. It wasn't as zhuzi had said. What wang ye liked zhuzi in his heart, wasn't that just zhuzi's imagination?
If he really liked zhuzi, how could wang ye be so indifferent? Yu'er slowly stood and slowly walked back. Ming He gonggong had said it so clearly. Even if zhuzi wasn't happy, she had tried her best.
When Huang Yang returned to zhengyuan, he reported the matter to Qu Qing Ju, narrating the entire incident from beginning to end.
"Yun Qing guniang?" Qu Qing Ju only remembered Yun Qing's plain white clothing and her virtuous demeanor.
A great wang ye fell in love at first sight with Hua Kui. Because Hua Kui was virtuous, his love deepened. In the end, he resisted all the powers and lived happily with Hua Kui. This kind of story was the plot of a story.
Did that silly woman really think that He Heng was a character from that story?
"Get someone to send some herbs over and call a useful doctor for her," Qu Qing Ju smiled faintly as she ordered, "Just a sixteen, seventeen year old girl. She still has a long life ahead of her. It's not worth letting her lose her life."
"Wang ye is so kind. Aren't you also this old, why do you have to be so moved by others?" Yin Liu put a hot water woman covered in brocade into Qu Qing Ju's hands, "At the beginning, her face was very proud."
Qu Qing Ju smiled and held the hot water woman in her hands: "You stupid girl." Yin Liu's cunning wasn't as good as Mu Jin, but this kind of personality had its uses sometimes. What was even rarer was that loyalty. She listened to such nagging.
"Everyone in the fu is watching," Mu Jin, who was standing at the side, looked helplessly at Yin Liu, "This kind of person isn't even painful to wang fei. To watch her lose her life, what would others think of it?"
Qu Qing Ju didn't care for the conversation between the two. She waved her hand at Huang Yang, ordering: "You personally order someone to do this. Just say that I like Yun Qing guniang's beauty and let someone take good care of her." She didn't like Yun Qing as a person, but it wasn't to the point where she would let her die of illness. She didn't have such a twisted mentality.
Huang Yang accepted the order and retreated. He smirked inside. Didn't that Yun Qing guniang think she was virtuous? Right now, it was because of wang fei's pity that she was able to keep her life. If she had the ability, she wouldn't beg others. That would be virtuous.
In Cui You Yuan, Yun Qing's face was waxy yellow as she lay on the bed. Listening to Yu'er happily talk about what wang fei had done out of benevolence, the hatred in her eyes deepened. Why did she have to let the sympathy of other women to keep her life? Why did she have both beauty and talent but couldn't compare to the average looking Jiang Yong Yu and the others?
As she drank the bitter medicine, a strong desire to live rose in her eyes. She couldn't die, she definitely couldn't die. She had to stand high and see who would pity her? Who would look down on her?!
Qu Qing Ju heard that Yun Qing of Cui You Yuan was very cooperative with the doctor. She put down the brush in her hand with interest and looked at the dancing butterflies on the paper. She examined it for a while before replying: "Heart higher than the sky, life thinner than paper."
Mu Jin put a peony incense burner on the table. She smiled and asked: "Wang fei predicted this?"
"This kind of person, she wouldn't listen to such words as pity," Carelessly throwing the paper to one side, Qu Qing Ju started to sketch out a beautiful peony flower, "Feng Zi Jin hasn't been very free recently. Otherwise, how could she have passed the matters of the fu to Jing fei?"
"How can wang fei be sure it's her?" Mu Jin hesitated before asking, "It seems that Jing fei doesn't really like the two of them."
"A person like Jing fei, she wants to suppress me who she doesn't like, but she also doesn't want the ce fei to suppress me. So she would definitely learn some things about me from one of the ce fei, but she doesn't want that ce fei to break the rules. So that day in Zhong Jing Palace, she easily exempted me from serving and had the two ce fei stand from beginning to end," Qu Qing Ju waved the brush and quickly sketched out a peach blossom, "Jiang Yong Yu is a smart person so she wouldn't do something that would offend me. Then the most suspicious person would be Feng Zi Jin." In this era, a mother-in-law treating an erxi was the strangest attitude in the world. Many times, they liked to bully the erxi themselves, but they couldn't bear to see others make the erxi lose face. Otherwise, why was it said that a woman's heart was like a needle at the bottom of the sea?
Mu Jin heard this and thought carefully. She felt it was reasonable, but when she thought about how Jing fei purposefully made things difficult for wang fei, Mu Jin still felt that Jing fei, this mother-in-law, wasn't easy to serve.
A simple daffodil appeared on the paper. Qu Qing Ju didn't have any interest in painting. She let Jin Zhan, who was beside her, put away the painting. She smiled as she looked at Mu Jin who was deep in thought: "You don't have to worry too much. Jing fei might be hard to deal with, but it's not impossible to deal with." To deal with people who had a wild imagination, being naturally dazed was a great weapon. She wasn't naturally dazed and could always pretend to be dazed. The women in the palace liked to use their mouths to stab people. Just pretending not to understand was enough to anger her to death. In any case, no matter what, Jing fei wouldn't really dare to move against her right now. What was she afraid of?
