"Welcome to Your Highness." Ma Shizhong bowed respectfully to the carriage carriage.
Fu Yunchen also saluted, but did not speak.
"Go back to the palace." A lazy and distant voice came from the carriage.
Ma Shizhong immediately arranged for the imperial guards to escort Prince Zhou back to the palace. He and Fu Yunchen also greeted the Wu envoys and settled the Wu army.
Ma Shizhong was extremely intolerant of entertaining the people of Wu, but he could not be rude, which would appear to be stingy in the Northern Jin Dynasty, and he was notorious for treating foreign envoys harshly.
Fu Yunchen noticed Ma Shizhong's displeasure, so he took over the task of entertaining Wu envoys from him.
This move made Ma Shizhong very happy, and he said that he would speak well of him in front of His Majesty. At the same time, he hinted that the Ministry of Rites was short of a director, and if he was willing, he would be willing to recommend him to His Majesty.
Fu Yunchen declined, saying that he was doing well in the Hanlin Academy now.
The more he refused, the more Ma Shizhong appreciated him.
…
The Prime Minister's Mansion, the boudoir of Li Yingyu.
Because her wrist was so badly injured that even her tendons were affected, the prime minister's wife told her that her playing the piano would be affected in the future.
Li Yingyu was good at playing the piano. When she heard that she could no longer be the same as before, she burst into tears.
The Prime Minister's wife is not worried about this. After all, playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting are just some fun, just understand it, there is no need to be so good, and she does not want to be a musician. If she gets married in the future, she will also be the mistress of the house, let alone this
It's something. On the contrary, if the wound leaves a scar, my husband may be disgusted.
"I'm sending people to find the elixir for scars, and I must keep your hands intact."
"But Brother Yun likes his daughter's piano."
"Yun Tanhua is not your lover. She is not worthy of your status. Stop thinking so wildly."
"He is a rookie prospect, so how can he not be worthy of his daughter? Besides, my daughter already loves him so much that she can no longer tolerate anyone else in her heart."
"...Do you really think you won't marry him?" The Prime Minister's wife looked at her daughter and asked thoughtfully.
Li Yingyu nodded without hesitation, "Absolutely, I will not marry anyone other than Brother Yun!"
"Okay, mother understands." A hint of calculation suddenly flashed in the eyes of the Prime Minister's wife.
Aunt Song entered the room, followed by Aunt Su.
"Madam, Grandma Su is here."
Aunt Su immediately knelt on the ground with a frightened look on her face, "Madam, please spare my life."
The Prime Minister's wife's face immediately darkened, "Tell me, where is that bitch? If she dares to hurt my daughter, her life will be worse than death!"
Aunt Su kowtowed and begged for mercy, "I don't know where she went."
"If you can't find her, you die for her. Sister Song, take her down and don't let her make any noise."
"It's madam, I will leave no trace behind."
"Madam, it's really none of this slave's business. Please be merciful, madam. Madam, please spare my life." Aunt Su knelt down and threw herself at the feet of the Prime Minister's wife.
The Prime Minister's wife kicked him away and shouted angrily at Nanny Song, "Why don't you take him away if you don't want to be punished together?"
"Yes, Madam, please calm down." Nanny Song covered Nanny Su's mouth with one hand, pulled her hair with the other, and dragged her out alive!
After leaving the house, Nanny Song called the two rough ladies guarding the courtyard gate, "Come here."
One of the rough ladies held a hemp rope in her hand and immediately stepped forward to tie up Grandma Su.
Aunt Song said to the rough lady: "Send her to my room first. I have something to ask her."
"yes."
Two rough ladies carried Nanny Su to the small room in the side courtyard where Nanny Song lived.
