Three families hire each other, the mistress of the marquisate accidentally offends the treacherous

The next day, it was still cloudy.

The rain stopped, but the wind was still a little cold.

When Jiang Qingyue woke up, Dong Lingyan was gone.

Lu Huan came over to help her get dressed and secretly gave Jiang Qingyue a contraceptive pill.

During breakfast, Lu Huan told the situation in the mansion:

“Madam, the prince hasn’t woken up yet, and Bai Wei has taken good care of him all night.

"The old lady went to Shumingyuan early in the morning and was very angry when she saw that the lady was not there. Later, she heard that it was the prince who did not allow the lady to stay, but she did not mention it again.

"The eldest wife also went there, and she just kept crying. The old lady was afraid that she would affect the prince, so she took one look at her and let her go back.

"Over at Miaowenyuan, Aunt Chu is still sick. She woke up once in the middle of the night, drank some medicine in a daze and went back to sleep. She hasn't woken up yet, and she's not making any noise."

Jiang Qingyue nodded, put down her bowl and chopsticks after finishing her meal, and sat quietly in front of the window to look at the early spring scenery outside.

In March in the capital, the wind is still a little chilly.

The bare branches have sprouted tender green buds, and at first glance, it still looks a bit wintery and bleak.

I heard that at this time of year, the wind from the south of the Yangtze River blows along the willow banks, the peach trees are in full bloom, and spring is in full swing.

The capital city will be half a month late.

Lu Huan came over to pour tea:

"Madam, the prince will wake up today, right? When he wakes up, Aunt Chu will definitely go and complain."

Jiang Qingyue didn't care: "Whatever."

Moreover, she felt that Chu Wan'er might not be able to see Xue Feimu today.

She knew Bai Wei's methods.

Now, she has to help Bai Wei.

"Let's go to Cisongyuan."

The old lady probably doesn’t know about what Chu Wan’er did yesterday, otherwise she wouldn’t be so quiet.

She had to let the old lady know.

This is a turbulent time, and the old lady must be disgusted by Chu Wan'er's behavior.

When Xue Feimu wakes up, he will hit him a few times.

With the old lady above her and Bai Wei below her, Chu Wan'er's life is very difficult.

Today, she just watched them fight each other.

Before going to Cisongyuan, Jiang Qingyue went to Shumingyuan first.

However, when he arrived at the gate of Shumingyuan, he did not go in. He just stood at the door for a while, then covered his face and left.

Arriving at Cisongyuan, Jiang Qingyue started crying as soon as she entered the door:

"Madam, how is Qingyue going to get by these days? The prince doesn't want Qingyue to be with him at all..."

Jiang Qingyue cried and complained, which gave the old lady a headache. She could only bite the bullet and comfort her with a few words.

I don't know if Jiang Qingyue heard it, but I heard her say again:

"Aunt Chu is a concubine, so it is only natural for me to move to another courtyard. Moreover, the old lady and the prince both agreed, but she insisted on going against it. She was unwilling to go into the house and stayed outside in the rain to make the prince feel distressed. She said she agreed to move to another courtyard, but what she actually did was not the case.

"It's fine if you say one thing and mean another and create some rift with Qingyue, but what if it affects the Crown Prince and the Marquis' Mansion? What should we do then..."

It has to be said that Jiang Qingyue's words touched the old lady's heart, and the old lady's expression changed immediately.

Jiang Qingyue stopped talking and said:

“There is one more thing Qingyue wants to discuss with the old lady.

"Before the prince was not here, we didn't mention it. Now that the prince is back, this matter of returning to the sect..."

"Of course I should go, but Mu'er is injured now. Why not wait until he recovers before going? I think my in-laws won't blame me."

The old lady thought that there would be only benefits and no harm in Xue Feimu's visit to the Jiang family.

Jiang's father is the Minister of War, so it's natural for him to get closer to such a relative.

"What the old lady said is right. Qingyue should go back in a few days. In addition to the Jiang Mansion, there is also my maternal ancestor Lin family. I plan to visit them and make friends with them. It will always be beneficial for the prince to walk in the court."

She didn’t care whether she went back to the Jiang family or not, but she had to go back to the Lin family.

"Of course I want to. That's fine. You're so thoughtful. When we get back to the Jiang family, talk to your father and ask him to help Mu'er, which is also helping you. You should understand these principles without me having to explain them."

"Qingyue will definitely try her best."

"Well, go ahead. Mu'er is injured now, and everything in the mansion depends on you."

Jiang Qingyue was useful, and the old lady rarely looked kind to her.

Around noon, Xue Feimu finally woke up.

He couldn't remember what happened last night at all. After Bai Wei told him what happened, he looked at his tightly wrapped legs and felt a pang of fear in his heart.

Fortunately, it is not serious and will be fine after a period of rest.

Really...drinking is a mistake.

"Which courtyard are you from? I don't think I've ever seen you before."

Xue Feimu saw that Bai Wei was eloquent and spoke clearly and concisely, so he asked more questions.

"In reply to the prince, I am a maid in Wutong Courtyard."

Bai Wei lowered her head, not daring to look at Xue Feimu, and spoke tremblingly.

The prince dislikes his wife, and she was afraid that if she said something, the prince would dislike her as well.

"The maidservant in front of Jiang Qingyue?"

"Yes."

"From the Jiang family?"

"Yes."

Xue Feimu looked at Bai Wei again.

"What are you afraid of? I won't eat you. Raise your head."

Bai Wei was stunned for a moment, then raised her head slightly and stopped at the most beautiful angle from Xue Feimu's perspective.

"She looks pretty good. Where's the young lady? Why didn't she come?"

Bai Wei has selfish motives. She told the truth. Xue Feimu frowned after hearing this:

"I won't let the young lady take care of him? Why won't you let her come?"

"Yes."

Xue Feimu was confused.

I have no recollection of doing such a thing and I can't figure it out.

Just then, the old lady came.

He asked about Xue Feimu's injuries, meals, and medicines. After asking everything, he repeatedly instructed the servants to take good care of him before he sat down with peace of mind.

He also asked Xue Feimu about his position.

It would have been fine if he hadn't mentioned this, but once he did, Xue Feimu's face was filled with anger.

"These people are like brothers when nothing happens, but now that something bad has happened, they have all become cowards.

“I can’t even arrange for a small city guard.

“What else can I say? It’s because I offended the powerful officials and they dare not take action.

"In my opinion, these people are just cowards who hesitate over even the smallest matters. If they come to me for help in the future, I will definitely not help them..."

Xue Feimu was indignant and held his breath.

The old lady frowned and said, "Is there really no way out of this matter?

"If you can't even go to the City Guards, then does that mean you can only be the Chief of Ceremonies?"

The more the old lady spoke, the uglier her face became.

I get goosebumps just by saying the three words "Si Li Jian".

Xue Feimu lowered his head and said nothing.

The appointment was made in the palace at that time. The emperor had spoken, and he had no other choice but to continue...

Thinking of this, Xue Feimu felt a lump in his stomach.

He looked at his legs and said, "It's a blessing in disguise. The fall is pretty serious, so I don't have to go on duty right away.

"It will take some time for this to get better. We just have to see if there is any improvement during this period."

"Yes, yes, let's go to the Jiang family and take a look. After all, Jiang Qingyue is also the daughter of the Jiang family. They can't just sit there and do nothing.

“Also, it’s been a while since the Prime Minister came back. I’ll have a chance to ask for help from him then. It might be a way out.

"That's all we can do. We'll see when the time comes."

After this was said, the old lady mentioned Chu Wan'er and criticized Xue Feimu a few words, and Xue Feimu did not dare to disobey.

Chu Wan'er has always been considerate, but what happened yesterday was indeed too much.

What the old lady said makes sense. If someone doesn't take care of himself and threatens others, who knows what he will do in the future. We must not encourage such evil practices.

That being said, I felt a little distressed when I thought about Chu Wan'er getting caught in the rain for half a day and getting sick.

He called Bai Wei and asked about the situation at Miaowenyuan.

Bai Wei told him everything that happened yesterday, but she told it in a clever way.

The words are all true, but when put together, they take on a different meaning.

She didn't dare to do it too obviously, but she still achieved what she wanted to express.

She just wanted the prince to know: the young lady and Aunt Chu were fighting, the young lady was narrow-minded and could not tolerate Aunt Chu, while Aunt Chu was brainless and did not care about the overall situation and acted out of control.

In this way, no matter which one of them the prince disliked, it would be a good thing for her, so she spared no effort to flatter Xue Feimu.

Bai Wei is smart. She stops at the right point when addressing some things and doesn't say too much or too much on some other matters. This makes her stance seem neutral and convincing.

However, she didn't know that these words she said had completely changed meaning in Xue Feimu's ears.

Xue Feimu thought to himself:

This must be Jiang Qingyue's expression of jealousy.

For example, a woman depends on her husband, so how can she not care about him?

This woman really has a bad temper when she gets jealous.

I don’t know what she looks like when she gets jealous, even though she is so pretty.

Never mind, I won’t punish her.

As for what happens in the future, we’ll see how she performs.

If she behaved well, he wouldn't mind treating her better.

When Xue Feimu thought about Jiang Qingyue being jealous of him, he felt inexplicably happy.

As for Chu Wan'er...

This time, I really went too far.

No matter how dissatisfied you are, you shouldn't joke with your body. It might as well give her a good scolding.

I was thinking of asking my subordinates to deliver some things today and buy some more things for Miaowenyuan, but now I think about it and decide to go tomorrow.

Let her know her mistake so she won't make the same mistake again next time.

Miaowenyuan.

desolate.

On the bed, Chu Wan'er woke up slowly and looked at the unfamiliar scene, unable to react for a moment.

"This is where?"

Manju hurried forward: "Aunt, this is Miaowenyuan."

Chu Wan'er thought for a long time before she remembered where she was.

"Where is the prince? Why can't I see him?" She clearly remembered that she fainted last night when she saw him coming.

Agate hesitated to speak, not knowing how to put it.

"The prince is in Shumingyuan."

"Did you go back to rest because you were too tired from taking care of me? What did the prince say? Did he ask me to move back to Zhuxiangyuan when I woke up? Was the young lady punished? It was the prince who took care of me personally last night? What else did he say?"

Chu Wan'er asked a bunch of questions in one breath, and when she saw that Manou avoided her gaze and didn't answer, she had a bad feeling in her heart.

"Say it quickly."

Manjue's hand was hurt by the grab and dared not utter a word. She endured the pain and replied: "Auntie, the prince didn't come. The prince was injured."

"Didn't come? Are you injured?"

When she heard the first sentence, Chu Wan'er had an expression of disbelief, and all kinds of speculations flashed through her mind.

But when he heard the next sentence, he was suddenly stunned.

"What happened? You were fine, how did you get hurt?"

If the prince was injured and did not come at all, then wouldn’t I have suffered in vain yesterday?

Agate told what happened last night.

After listening to this, Chu Wan'er's brows relaxed and then frowned, then frowned and relaxed again, with mixed feelings.

After a while, he asked, "Is the prince awake?"

"He's awake. Shumingyuan is busy now. The doctor has changed the medicine."

"Let's go and see the prince." Chu Wan'er said as she was about to get up, but she felt dizzy as soon as she got up.

Manju hurriedly supported her and said, "Auntie, why don't you take a rest and go when you feel better."

"can not wait."

The prince definitely doesn't know about what's happening on her side. If she doesn't go, how would the prince know what kind of suffering and pain she has endured.

Moreover, the fact that she still thought of the prince even after suffering the punishment showed her friendship even more clearly.

Chu Wan'er slowed down and stood up to put on her makeup.

Because she was sick, her face was pale. She changed into plain clothes and put on light makeup, which made her skin look more delicate. After the makeup, she looked quite fragile and youthful.

"Let's go."

"Auntie, would you like to have some food?"

"No need. I went to Miaowenyuan to eat with the prince."

"Yes."

When the group arrived at Shuming Courtyard, Bai Wei just came out and Chu Wan'er was stopped directly.

Chu Wan'er frowned and gestured to Manjushri. Manjushri was afraid of the master, but not the maids. She stepped forward and asked:

"Why are you stopping our aunt? You are a maid in Wutong Courtyard. When did you become the master of Shuming Courtyard?"

Bai Wei glanced at her and looked at Chu Wan'er:

"Please go back, Auntie. The prince needs to rest."

"Who do you think you are to speak to my aunt like that?"

"I dare not make the decision. It is the prince's intention."

Bai Wei ignored her and continued talking to Chu Wan'er. Manou was about to argue with her but was stopped by Chu Wan'er.

Speaking of Xue Feimu's idea, she couldn't help it:

"I'm only going in to see the prince. I won't disturb you. Please give me some space."

Bai Wei: "Please don't embarrass me, Auntie."

Chu Wan'er was getting angry.

Yesterday she was able to enter and leave Shumingyuan freely, but today she was stopped outside the door.

In addition to being stopped at the door, it was also because of Bai Wei's vaguely disdainful attitude.

But I also knew that no matter how angry I was, I couldn't make a scene here, so I could only endure it.

But he was not going to let Bai Wei go.

A slave who takes chicken feathers as a token of authority and looks down on others, and who is Jiang Qingyue's man, must have been Jiang Qingyue's intention.

She couldn't do anything to Jiang Qingyue, but she could deal with a maid.

"In that case, I won't go in. But I'm still sick. Can I sit in the yard and rest for a while?"

Bai Wei frowned and looked back:

"Auntie, you should go back. Since you are sick, you should have a good rest. It is windy here and it is not good for your health."

It seemed that Chu Wan'er was unwilling to leave without seeing anyone. Bai Wei was thinking about what Chu Wan'er would say next so that she could respond. Then she heard Chu Wan'er say:

"Okay, I'll go back first. Can you please give me a ride?"

Bai Wei didn't move, obviously hesitant.

"If you don't want to, please give me a stool." Chu Wan'er wanted to embarrass her. No matter which one Bai Wei chose, she would not let it go easily.

Bai Wei looked at Chu Wan'er with an unfriendly expression. She didn't expect Chu Wan'er to be so difficult.

If she didn't go, it would be impossible for her not to be given a stool, but once she was given one, she would be at a disadvantage in front of Chu Wan'er.

This was the first job the prince had given her, and she couldn't make any mistakes. If Chu Wan'er entered the house without her being careful, she wouldn't be able to explain to the prince.

But if I go, who knows what tricks Chu Wan'er will play.

Bai Wei didn't expect that such a small matter would put her in a dilemma.
