Quickly wear the crazy batch of bosses, stop being lazy

"Then I, this old minister, will take my leave first." Father Meng bowed respectfully to the emperor, then raised his hand and wiped his face vigorously with his big hand, as if he wanted to wipe away all the fatigue and worry on his face.

He slowly turned around and left the palace with heavy and hurried steps.

After leaving the palace, Meng's father did not stop at all. He rode his horse straight home.

After returning home, Meng's father didn't even take a rest for a moment, but went straight to visit Yun Qian.

When he saw that Yun Qian was safe and sound, his heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally felt relieved a little.

However, just seeing Yun Qian was not enough. Meng's father knew that he had to tell Meng's mother about this matter, so he hurried to find Meng's mother.

After finding Meng's mother, Meng's father told her everything that happened in the palace in detail.

At the same time, at the Xue Mansion on the other side, the atmosphere was extremely solemn and depressing.

It turned out that Xue Chenyue, as the illegitimate daughter of the Xue family, had been punished since she attempted to stab Yun Qian with a hairpin on the street that day - she was confined to her boudoir and was not allowed to go out.

The reason for this is that Meng's father told Minister Xue the whole story.

Upon learning that his daughter had done such a ridiculous thing, Minister Xue became furious and started cursing at Xue Chenyue and Aunt Tao.

After scolding her, he was still not satisfied, so he ordered her to kneel in the ancestral hall for three days.

After the kneeling punishment was over, Xue Chenyue not only suffered physical torture, but was also directly confined to his room.

Xue Chenyue was filled with resentment and anger at this punishment.

Especially towards Yun Qian, who put her in such a predicament, she hated him to the core.

She secretly swore that once the house arrest was lifted, she would immediately go to Meng Jin and persuade Yun Qian to see her true face.

In this way, the days passed one by one, and in the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.

Xue Chenyue, who thought it would take some time before the house arrest was lifted, accidentally heard the servants' discussions that day, and was surprised to find that the male protagonist Meng Jin had actually gone to the border!

For a moment, Xue Chenyue was stunned, his face full of disbelief.

According to the normal plot development, at this time, Meng Jin in the novel should have to wait several more years before going to the border!

But why is it suddenly brought forward now?

Could it be that my actions caused the story line to change?

Thinking of this, an inexplicable feeling of uneasiness surged in his heart, and Xue Chenyue shivered involuntarily.

She frowned, feeling that something had changed.

At this moment, the Shangshu's wife, also known as Madam Xue, surrounded by a group of maids and old women, broke into the courtyard where Xue Chenyue lived in a menacing manner.

The huge crowd poured into the originally quiet courtyard like a surging tide.

Seeing this scene, Xue Chenyue's heart couldn't help but skip a beat. He frowned slightly, and a trace of unhappiness flashed through his heart.

However, before Mrs. Xue could even open her mouth to say a word, she took the lead and asked in a harsh tone, "Mother, what exactly do you want to do by bringing so many people into my yard?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Xue's face suddenly turned gloomy, as depressing as the sky before a storm.

Her beautiful eyes stared coldly at Xue Chenyue in front of her, and a hint of imperceptible disgust flashed across the depths of her eyes.

At this moment, the old nanny standing next to Madam Xue suddenly shouted angrily: "How dare you! Third Miss, why don't you greet Madam when you see her? Is this how the nanny teaches you etiquette every day?"

Faced with this sudden rebuke, Xue Chenyue felt speechless. She curled her lips and couldn't help rolling her eyes.

I felt that this group of people was simply incomprehensible and unreasonable. I didn't know what was wrong with them. They suddenly ran up to me like crazy and showed off their power.

She was too stingy to even give the old maid who had just scolded her a glance. She just gave Madam Xue a perfunctory salute and then asked again, "Mother, what is the important matter that has brought you here with such a large crowd?"

Seeing Xue Chenyue's attitude, her face darkened and she said coldly, "I heard that Princess Changle has recovered in the past few days. You should go to the Meng family with me today."

Xue Chenyue frowned and asked, "What are you going to the Meng family for?" The male protagonist had already left.

Seeing that she was still playing dumb, Madam Xue couldn't help but slap Xue Chenyue in the face, saying coldly, "You are a concubine's daughter, who gave you the courage to bully Princess Changle? You even made the princess faint from anger, and I heard you wanted to stab her with a hairpin? Do you want to kill the Xue family?!"

After being slapped, Xue Chenyue was in disbelief at first, but then she realized what was happening and felt terrible. She covered her slapped face and looked at Madam Xue angrily, "Why did you hit me? I didn't do anything wrong! It was Meng Weiyun who pretended to faint. I took the hairpin just to save her."

It was so well said that even she almost believed it.

But Mrs. Xue didn't believe it, so she asked the old nanny beside her to slap her again.

Xue Chenyue was going crazy. After screaming, she actually reached out to hit Mrs. Xue.

After Xue Chenyue traveled through time, although she was a concubine's daughter, she had a close relationship with the Fourth Prince and Princess Changle, so no one in the mansion dared to bully her, and she had never been beaten. Now that she was suddenly beaten, how could Xue Chenyue accept it?

Seeing her rushing towards her like crazy, Mrs. Xue frowned and took a step back. The next second, Xue Chenyue was held down by the maids and nannies behind her.

"How dare you! You have no respect for your parents and you beat up my stepmother. Xue Chenyue, are you crazy?"

Xue Chenyue struggled frantically and wanted to pounce on Madam Xue. At this moment, hearing these words, she just felt that Madam Xue was hypocritical and couldn't help but burst into cursing.

Madam Xue's face darkened even more. After taking a deep breath, she said, "Miss Third is becoming more and more unruly. Someone bring her down and spank her with a stick! She will stop when she knows she is wrong."
