After leaving Yue and going to Fenglai Pavilion, Qin Shou'an was sure that the last letter from his father actually meant: Tang Wanrong is a treasure, and getting her will be of great benefit. You must find ways to make her your own.
Tang Wanrong only reminded Qin Shou'an not to have preconceived ideas and to abandon habitual thinking when looking at her relationship with Qin Heng, but did not reveal any more information to him.
Qin Shou'an stood under the attic, staring at the lake with falling flowers. In the distance, several servants were holding boats to clean up the fallen branches and leaves in the lake.
An egret that was not afraid of people stood on the bow of the boat, staring closely at the net bag in the hands of the servant. From time to time, small fish were fished out along with residual branches and leaves, but it could not see the fish swimming in the lake.
Qin Shou'an was inclined to believe Tang Wanrong's remarks. Even if she might be a little misleading, or perhaps completely untrue, there should be no problem with the main message.
Only in this way can we explain why his father wrote that letter... But why Tang Wanrong is so important, his father has never told him that he needs to find out about this matter himself, or find an opportunity for Tang Wanrong to be willing to tell him.
This can be done slowly. Anyway, it is impossible for Tang Wanrong to run away in a short while, and it is even less possible for a group of people to suddenly come and snatch her away by throwing her on the eight-carriage sedan.
Qin Shou'an raised his hand and looked at his clean and white fingers, which seemed to have lingering fragrance... The unexpected message was: he originally thought it was a misunderstanding, but he didn't expect that she was really.
It was probably because of his prominent status that he could only hide some hobbies and explore them by himself. He was naturally ignorant and unfamiliar, which led to the embarrassing situation of being inextricably bound and being broken by him.
Qin Shou'an would not threaten such a secret, but he felt a little emotional that since ancient times, women have been more suppressed in matters in the boudoir.
This is true even for the royal family...not every member of the royal family is as indulgent and dissolute as recorded in "The Secret History of the Palace".
Even if Tang Wanrong is like this, it is possible that His Majesty the Emperor, who grew up in such an environment in the palace, could have his psychology distorted or abnormal to any degree.
Qin Shouan felt increasingly that it was necessary to prepare for a rainy day.
On the shore of the lake, flowers were blooming and as dense as clouds. Qin Shouan took a look, put his hand on the long stick tied to his waist, put it down again, and left without looking back.
With Tang Wanrong's status and importance, it is normal for her to have some secret protective forces around her, just like he also felt that someone was guarding Haitang Chunwu in the dark recently.
Qin Shouan met Tang Cheng, the second housekeeper, on the veranda.
He entered the moon and reached the Fenglai Pavilion without any obstruction. Naturally, one punch destroyed Tang Zhongli's authority that day. Everyone in the palace knew that the prince really could not disobey.
But now Tang Wanrong is in control of the palace's internal affairs. The servants in charge saw Qin Shou'an going to find Tang Wanrong, but did not come to see and inquire at all, which would make Tang Wanrong dissatisfied, so Tang Cheng would hesitate to appear nearby.
Seeing Qin Shou'an approaching, Tang Cheng bowed and saluted.
"Butler Tang."
"Thanks to the young prince for your kindness." Tang Cheng quickly thanked him, although he couldn't understand why Qin Shou'an suddenly called him the chief steward... If he wanted to truly take the next step to become the chief steward, he still needed Tang Wanrong to nod, but at this time he dared to say anything
?
Maybe if he just said that he was still the second housekeeper, Qin Shou'an would give him a punch on the grounds that "doesn't my son's words count?"
Thinking about the way Tang Zhong was so shocked and unable to close his eyes before his death that day, with his skull bursting open, Tang Cheng held his breath and became more respectful.
"Well, what I mean is that I have no objection to my aunt's promotion of you to the position of housekeeper. All matters in the house will be arranged by my aunt." Qin Shou'an continued to show his goodwill to Tang Wanrong through these servants.
Tang Cheng was so happy that he even said he didn't dare.
In the past few days, news has come from Haitang Chunwu, talking about the dirty things Tang Zhong did when the young prince was young, which made everyone understand that Tang Zhong's death was not regrettable, and there seemed to be some people who accused Tang Wanrong of being careless in employing people.
mean.
Now the young prince said this...the minds of these masters are constantly changing, which makes people really hard to figure out and at a loss as to what to do.
"The young prince is wise. Whether Tang Cheng can serve as the housekeeper or not, I don't dare to dream about it. It all depends on the master. But Tang Zhong really doesn't want to die. In recent years, he has become more and more domineering, bullying his subordinates and hiding things from his superiors, which made the people in the house complain. Fortunately,
The young prince killed him with one punch, which also made everyone in the house realize that he was harboring evil intentions." Tang Cheng said sincerely.
"Do you have a grudge against him?" Qin Shouan gritted his teeth when Tang Cheng talked about Tang Zhong, and he was also very happy about Tang Zhong's death.
"Immortal hatred! The year before last, Tang Zhong arranged for me to go out to inspect the money shop. That night, he came to my home and accused me of embezzling money from the government. This scared my stupid wife into committing herself to him in order to beg him to let me go...
"
Tang Cheng's cheeks turned red, but he still told the truth... If this matter spread among the people, he would naturally be disgraced, but how could the young prince spread a scandal about a housekeeper's family affairs?
Taking the initiative to reveal secrets about yourself that you cannot see others is also a way to build closer relationships.
"That's damned. Now you and your mother-in-law..."
"I don't blame her for this. She is stupid, but it's all for me. If I abandon her because of this, how can I still be considered a human being?"
"Yes, do it well."
Qin Shouan showed appreciation and continued walking forward. Tang Cheng behind him stood up straight after his figure disappeared from the rockery.
They are all smart people... Qin Shou'an knew very well that in the conversation just now, Tang Cheng was expressing his awe for the young prince, and secondly, it was implying that he was a reliable person and still respected his wife who had defiled his body.
He will never give up, and he will naturally be loyal to the palace.
Qin Shou'an didn't care about other people's intentions, nor did he care about the truth or falsehood of the stories others told. Tang Cheng must also be Tang Wanrong's person, and he was too lazy to try to win people's hearts.
When he approached Haitang Chunwu, the scattered servants came closer and followed him respectfully to wait on him.
Back in the study, Qin Shou'an sat in front of a mahogany book case carved with clouds and dragons, meditating.
Yueqing helped him lay out the paper, Han Xin stood beside him holding a brush, and Huaiyu was sharpening the ink with a solemn expression... It had been a long time since he had served the pen and ink, so he had to be extra serious.
Just after arriving at Feng Lai Pavilion in Yue, he had some creative inspiration.
After a while, Qin Shou'an started writing and designed a necklace lined with soft fur and a gold and jade belt. The rope chain was based on the kind of rope he saw in Tang Wanrong's room today, but he didn't know where to get it.
"My young prince, is this a collar? It must look very beautiful on your neck."
Let's just say, women often have this kind of hidden psychology. As soon as Yue Qing saw this, she took the initiative to think that this should be worn around her neck.
"There's a rope chain, is it a dog collar?" Han Xin said, holding her neck with both hands.
"You can also wear a dog collar. We can be the little prince's dog."
Huaiyu said very positively, and even shouted twice: "Woof woof!"
The three maids nodded repeatedly. Yue Qing and Han Xin felt that their performance was lagging behind. What if the young prince felt that they were not as happy as Huai Yu and wanted to be his dogs?
Qin Shou'an frowned, turned his head and looked at the three of them silently, blinked, and then stopped laughing.
Over the years, he has been cultivating in the Tiandao Sect. Although there are seniority rankings in the master's sect, it is not as different as in the palace of the emperor's relatives, where the master and the servant are as different as the heavens and the sky.
Therefore, he had forgotten that in a place like the Prince's Mansion, saying that he was willing to be a dog for his master was not even considered self-defeating. Just like the small countries surrounding Xin Qin, they were often proud of being able to be dogs for Xin Qin and regarded it as
Glory: It’s the greatest honor to be Xinqin’s dog!
