Chapter 293
Princess Wancheng did not respond, but looked helplessly at her aunt. Seeing this, Mrs. Feng frowned and said displeasedly:
"How presumptuous! When did the eldest princess become a foreigner? Get out of the way!"
"Eldest Princess, please forgive me. Your Highness has ordered that you can enter, but not the eldest princess." Aunt Xia said respectfully, "The rules set by the mansion must not be broken to prevent people with ulterior motives from taking advantage of the mansion's mind.
.”
"How dare you!" Seeing that she refused to let go, Mrs. Feng became angry, "How dare you, a slave, insult the eldest princess's reputation?!"
"Back to the eldest princess, these are your highness's exact words." Aunt Xia said calmly, "Your highness has told you that if the eldest princess steps into this mansion today, it will be because of the incompetence of the slaves and she will be returned to Zongzheng.
Mansion. But Madam, Your Highness has already retreated once. If you retreat again, I may cause the displeasure of Uncle Zong and other elders. I hope the eldest princess will understand Your Highness's good intentions."
As expected, Mrs. Feng was frightened by these words. The honor and disgrace of Dongping Lane and Guo Gong's Mansion were the same. Zongbo was angry at Dongping Lane, so naturally he had no face towards her, the eldest princess, let alone Guo Gong's Mansion.
Although his face was livid with anger, he had to worry about it.
With Azhao's temperament, she is indeed not afraid of offending people in the royal family. If she hadn't been worried about her brothers and sisters in the Duke's palace, Empress Dowager Xia's female officer Fengyi might not have been able to convince her.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Feng had a cold face and did not dare to break in. She could only look at her eldest niece with infinite apologies.
"It's okay, aunt," Princess Wancheng smiled reassuringly at her and said considerately, "You go in, I'll wait at the door until Taihe is willing to see me."
"How about that?"
Mrs. Feng was angry and anxious, and when she was about to say something, Aunt Xia answered:
"Princess, my Royal Highness has won the Sacred Heart and has received great favor from His Majesty. Although he was very angry about this incident, he did not dare to have any complaints against your Royal Highnesses, so he had to take a bunch of maids inside to get angry.
.She doesn’t see you. It’s a matter of position. She has no personal grudge against you.
If you stand at the gate and linger, won't you let the world misunderstand that she is dissatisfied with you and the royal family? My Highness is busy with official duties and has no time to take care of trivial matters. Please go back, Princess! Lest the world misunderstand that you... are doing it on purpose
of."
"Bold!" Before Wancheng could open his mouth to argue, Feng was already pointing at Aunt Xia angrily, "You, how dare you..."
Aunt Xia quickly knelt down and firmly blocked the way of Princess Wancheng:
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty, these are also His Highness's exact words!"
Mrs. Feng was so angry that she was dizzy. She didn't notice that the eldest niece beside her stared at Aunt Xia with a gloomy expression, then slowly raised her eyes and stared at the plaque on the door of the mansion.
"Okay!" Mrs. Feng was so angry that she was shaking all over, pointing at Aunt Xia, "Okay! Since my niece is a foreigner, my surname is Feng, and I am also a foreigner! Go back and tell your highness the lintel of your Dongping Lane
If I can’t reach this high place, I won’t come here again!
She doesn’t need to see me! I’m a foreigner! I don’t know her! Wancheng, let’s go!”
Princess Wancheng, who was in a gloomy mood just now, couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly when she saw this, and a mocking smile flashed across her eyes. However, her attitude was very sincere, and she carefully helped Feng to walk in the direction of the carriage and said softly:
"Auntie, don't be angry, Taihe just couldn't think about it for the moment..."
"Don't mention her in front of me in the future!"
"Okay, okay, aunt, don't be angry, it's my niece who has put you in trouble..."
The two angrily got on the carriage, closed the door, turned around and left Dongping Alley. Aunt Xia got up with the help of the maid behind her, stared at the direction the carriage was leaving, and let out a long sigh.
It is said that the eldest princess is a lucky one. When I saw her today, she lived up to her reputation.
Fools are blessed by fools, and the ones who suffer are the old Duke, her own children, and the only legitimate daughter of the Duke's mansion in front of her...
"...Although I stopped you, I also offended the eldest princess on your behalf. I know I am incompetent and am willing to accept the punishment." Aunt Xia said when she returned to Jiyue Pavilion.
"Ahem," Yuan Zhao coughed twice and waved his hands calmly, "When my second mother was brought here by the eldest princess, I expected the outcome. I don't blame you, just get up."
Aunt Xia stood up, lowered her eyes and said:
"But your highness, the eldest princess is your concubine after all, and she had a deep relationship in the past. Now she has turned against you. In addition to bringing bad reputation to you, if someone makes irresponsible remarks in front of her, I'm afraid you will be in a difficult situation in the future."
Faced with the rude demands of the ignorant elders, even His Majesty had to be respectful and coaxing, let alone a princess who had many enemies.
Haha, Yuan Zhao chuckled helplessly.
Concubine? Yes, after all, she is just a concubine, separated by a layer of belly. If she were her son, maybe she could hear what she had warned her before in her heart.
As a very old person, she is always in the stage of ignorance about the situation and always takes chances. She thinks that because her surname is Feng, the royal family can spare the lives of her children. It is not as clear as a maid.
To be honest, she was a little tired facing a pig teammate who couldn't lead her.
"From now on, the etiquette of the people in the mansion will be handed over to Miss Xia to supervise and correct; the human relations in the mansion will be handed over to Wang Changshi; the Mu family will be in charge of miscellaneous affairs in the mansion. If there are any difficulties, they can contact Miss Xia and Wang Changshi
Discuss..." Yuan Zhao made arrangements for the officials,
"When I am not in the house, the internal affairs of Jiyue Pavilion are controlled by the four female officials Yang; the doctors are under the supervision of Medical Officer Hongye. You can have nothing to do with each other at ordinary times. When you encounter problems, remember to unite and help each other, and don't cause any other immoral things.
Come."
Having said this, Yuan Zhao paused briefly and said:
"I hope that you will work together to manage the affairs of the house for me. If I am good, you can be good; if I am not good, you may not be able to wait until your master orders me to cause trouble, and you will have passed away and your soul has passed away.
.”
Her words made all the people kneel down and bow their heads, not daring to move. Yuan Zhao quietly looked at the maids in the yard, coughed lightly and waved his hand.
"Everyone, go down."
After everyone exited in an orderly manner, Yuan Zhao raised his sleeves to half-cover his face and coughed several times. Doctor Hongye, who was standing beside him, cleverly stepped forward and said softly:
"Your Highness, please go into the inner room and rest, so that Hongye can take your pulse."
Yuan Zhao finished coughing and waved his hands. Just as he was about to object, the female official Song who was in charge of catering already warned her in a gentle voice:
"What the medical officer said is very reasonable. There are so many things going on in the government these days, and it is inevitable that you will be agitated. Your Highness, you have just returned from the eastern suburbs. What if you get sick from exhaustion? Why don't you let the medical officer take a look? If nothing happens, everyone can
It feels so safe, guys.”
After hearing this, several other female officials nodded unanimously. In this case, Yuan Zhao no longer refused, and stretched out his wrist to let Hongye take his pulse in public. The scenery in the courtyard was unique and could not be seen after entering the inner room.
She stared blankly at the courtyard, with a look of confusion on her face, and coughed lightly from time to time.
The autumn breeze in the afternoon is cool, and a chill can sneak into the collar of people unprepared, "Ah!". The dead leaves are whirling and falling on the eaves of the corridor, making people feel even more sad.
Sun Guan personally entered the room, found a cloak and put it on her. The warmth came over her, and Yuan Zhao couldn't help but sneeze again.
"Your Highness is fine," Hongye said with a frown after checking his pulse and going through a round of inspection, hearing and questioning. "It's just that he was overly tired, suddenly angry, and his emotions fluctuated so much that wind evil entered his body and hurt his energy and spirit..."
As a result, he became weak and contracted wind and cold.
"Have a good rest for a few days, take medicine on time, and you'll be fine." Hong Ye wrote the prescription while urging, "Sisters, these few days are critical. You must let the family order and Changshi handle the external affairs, and don't disturb them.
Your Highness rests.
His Highness is usually only injured and rarely gets sick, so once he does get sick, he must be treated with caution."
Wind-cold is a minor illness, and if you don't get enough rest, it can cause problems.
His Highness has the final say as to whether or not he should make a mistake. A good person will get sick just when he says he is sick. His Highness's mind is so quick that it catches people off guard.
Fortunately she was smart enough to catch it.
