The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs

Chapter 36: All sold, the Zhan Palace does not need disloyal people

Princess Lao Zhan glared at Butler Wang.

In the past, the old Princess Zhan was able to tolerate Butler Wang because Butler Wang had indeed done favors for the old Prince Zhan, so naturally the Zhan Palace should treat him well.

But what Princess Zhan couldn't tolerate was that Butler Wang would actually attack the heir of the Wang Mansion just for the right to be the butler!

No matter how good a person is, he or she has his or her weak spots.

Seeing that Princess Zhan did not look like she would let this go, Butler Wang cried and protested:

"Old Princess, I really don't know where that trumpet creeper came from! I wouldn't dare to do something as serious as poisoning the Second Young Master even if I had a hundred guts!"

Princess Lao Zhan looked at Butler Wang's appearance at this moment and felt a little hesitant.

Logically, Butler Wang really doesn't have the courage to do this, but the matter is serious and cannot be let go easily.

Immediately, Princess Lao Zhan looked at Shen Qinglan and said, "Qinglan, how do you think we should deal with this?"

As soon as Princess Lao Zhan opened her mouth, Butler Wang and the others' hearts suddenly jumped, and they looked at Shen Qinglan nervously and fearfully.

Shen Qinglan understood in her heart that the reason why Princess Zhan wanted to let her handle this matter was definitely because she wanted to give her a chance to make an example of someone else!

After all, now that she is the head of the household, she has never shown it in front of the servants. After a long time, she will inevitably be unable to control them.

Although Shen Qinglan planned to take it step by step, since Princess Zhan had given her such a convenience, there was naturally no reason for her to refuse.

Immediately, Shen Qinglan glanced at Steward Wang and the others, and said in a clear but dignified voice:

"Even if you didn't poison them, you allowed such a large amount of trumpet creepers to be sent in so easily, and you didn't know about it. It almost led to a big mistake. This is a serious dereliction of duty. Do you admit it or not?"

At this point, how could Steward Wang dare to defend himself? The charge of dereliction of duty was much better than poisoning the heir of the War Prince!

Immediately, Steward Wang kowtowed to Shen Qinglan, gritted his teeth, and said in a trembling voice:

"recognize."

"Butler Wang, as the butler of Prince Zhan's mansion, disobeyed and disrespected the mistress, and brought people to break into the second young master's bedroom, almost killing the second young master. This is disloyalty, do you admit it?"

"recognize……"

Shen Qinglan looked at Butler Wang, who was dejected like a defeated rooster, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, then said:

"Since Steward Wang's virtue is unworthy of his position, he will be stripped of his position as steward from today onwards and given fifty lashes of the cane as a warning to others!"

After Shen Qinglan finished speaking, Butler Wang looked up in shock, staring at Shen Qinglan with eyes that seemed to be spitting fire.

"I've blocked a knife for the old War King! I've saved his life! Are you just going to throw me away like this? If this gets out..."

Butler Wang was interrupted by Shen Qinglan before he could finish his words.

Shen Qinglan chuckled, playing with the armor on his hand with one hand, and said lightly:

"Don't worry, Steward Wang. Although we have stripped you of your stewardship, we in the Zhan Palace will still provide for your retirement. You can just live peacefully and enjoy your life in the palace."

"You, you want to imprison me?" Butler Wang widened his eyes with a look of astonishment.

"Butler Wang, you are joking. You are the lifesaver of the old Zhan Wang. We in the Zhan Wang Mansion will never forget you! We can only treat you as a guest of honor and take good care of you until the end of your life. This can be regarded as fulfilling the friendship between you and the old Zhan Wang!"

Upon hearing this, Butler Wang was so angry that his teeth were itching. He wanted to make some excuses, but Shuwen had already stepped forward.

Shuwen kicked him to the ground with a swift kick, pulled off his socks and stuffed them into Wang's mouth, then had him dragged away.

Butler Wang had already been punished, and the rest of the people who followed Butler Wang were all terrified and quickly knelt down and begged for mercy.

Shen Qinglan glanced at these people and spoke slowly:

"You all made such a big mistake because you followed the orders of Steward Wang. You can be exempted from the caning..."

When the servants heard this, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

It's good that he wasn't beaten with a stick! If he was beaten with fifty sticks, he would be half dead!

As long as you are alive, you will always have a chance to rise again...

When these servants knelt down to express their gratitude, Shen Qinglan smiled and said:

"You may be exempted from the caning, but we at the Zhan Wang Mansion cannot keep you here! Sell out all the people who are here to help Butler Wang today. We at the Zhan Wang Mansion do not need such disloyal people!"

Shen Qinglan's words made those people who thought they had escaped all collapse to the ground with deathly pale faces.

Although they are servants, they are servants of Prince Zhan's Mansion!

Even if you go out and meet a seventh-rank official, you have to give them enough face!

But now, if I am sold out, what good will that do?

If they are lucky, they will meet a better master. If they are unlucky, especially if they have offended Princess Zhan like they did, they might even be sold to an illegal kiln!

"Princess Zhan, please spare my life! Princess Zhan, please spare my life!"

"Princess, we don't dare to do that anymore. We never dare to do that again!"

"Please ask the princess to punish us with a cane!"

Everyone began to kneel on the ground and begged Shen Qinglan for mercy sincerely.

Seeing this, Princess Zhan opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she didn't say anything in the end.

Since she had agreed to hand the matter over to Shen Qinglan for disposal, she should keep her word.

Seeing that Princess Zhan seemed hesitant to speak, Shen Qinglan naturally knew what she was thinking.

The old Princess Zhan was able to give her enough respect, which made Shen Qinglan feel very relieved.

Therefore, Shen Qinglan did not want the old Princess Zhan to have a quarrel with her because of this matter, and immediately whispered to the old Princess Zhan:

"Mother, I know you are soft-hearted, but this matter is not something that can be forgiven just once."

"You should know that our Zhan Wang Mansion is in a special location. Although Zhan Wang is out fighting and killing enemies, I don't know how many people are in his way. How many people want to kill Zhan Wang as soon as possible?"

The situation in the court has always been changing rapidly, and what Shen Qinglan said was actually quite tactful.

Huo Zhanting fights on the battlefield for his country and his people. He seems to be a god of war in everyone's eyes, but he is not only standing in the way of his political enemies!

As the saying goes, a person's achievements are greater than his master's! Whenever a person's military achievements are too great, they will be coveted by those in higher positions.

Now that the emperor is old and extremely suspicious, he has high hopes for, but is also wary of, military commanders like Huo Zhanting.

Moreover, now that the emperor is old, he is naturally afraid that Huo Zhanting will have rebellious intentions and the country will change hands.

In his previous life, after Huo Zhanting was paralyzed in bed, the Zhan Palace declined so quickly, and Huo Zhanting passed away so early, which might not have been without external forces.

Moreover, Huo Junyu's children were not bad people by nature, so why were they raised like that in their previous life? And why did they die tragically in the end?

I'm afraid that someone is fanning the flames of everything and deliberately teaching the three children bad things, with the goal of completely eradicating the Zhan Palace!

And since the other party has the ability to corrupt three children, he must be someone in Prince Zhan's Palace!

Princess Zhan became a little nervous when she heard this, and asked, "Is it that serious?"

"Mother, it is better to be cautious than to be careless. The War Prince is fighting for his life outside, so we can't help him. The only thing we can do is to unite the people in the War Prince's Mansion and not become his weak spot!"

When Princess Lao Zhan heard this, her eyes suddenly turned red. She held Shen Qinglan's hand and said repeatedly:

"You are absolutely right! It is Ting'er's blessing to marry you! If Ting'er bullies you in the future, mother will never forgive him!"

Shen Qinglan shyly turned her head away, but secretly thought: Let's wait until Huo Zhanting comes back alive...

All the servants who had committed crimes were dragged away. When it came to Xie Wanying, Ren Donglai was a little troubled. He looked at Shen Qinglan and others and said:

"Princess, old princess, how should we deal with Miss Xie?"
