After the marriage, I married the most treacherous minister of the dynasty

Su Qingwan got up at the usual time. While Qinshu was serving her breakfast, she told her about Aunt Hong who had been waiting outside the courtyard gate for Yan Mingjue early in the morning.

"This Hong Yi Niang is also a restless person."

Miao Hua couldn't help but say.

"Let her be."

Su Qingwan spoke lightly.

When she found out that Aunt Hong was the daughter of Yan Ming's wet nurse, she knew that this matter was very troublesome.

"Your Excellency is wise and will definitely not misunderstand Madam."

Perhaps because Yan Mingjue has helped them several times, Miaohua now has great confidence in Yan Mingjue.

Su Qingwan was about to say something when the maid outside came in hurriedly and reported:

"Madam, the master is in Aunt Hong's courtyard. Please come over."

Su Qingwan frowned and nodded.

She changed her clothes and when she arrived, Aunt Hong's yard was already bustling with activity as several other aunts had all arrived.

"lady."

When they saw Su Qingwan, these concubines behaved well.

Su Qingwan ignored them and just fixed her eyes on Yan Mingjue.

She pursed her lips gently and looked at Yan Mingjue, feeling a little heavy in her heart.

After seeing everyone gathered, Yan Mingjue said:

"I have only been away from home for more than ten days, but the mansion is not deserted at all."

"In the past few years, there has never been a case of deducting people's monthly wages or food in the mansion."

"Su Qingwan, is this the backyard you're in charge of?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the yard lowered their heads and dared not speak.

This statement did not give the lady any face at all, and was a public rebuke in front of everyone in the mansion.

They didn't say it on their faces, but no one knew what they were thinking in their hearts.

Qinshu and Miaohua were also very surprised. They didn't expect Yan Mingjue to suddenly attack them, and to do so in front of so many people.

Qin Shu hurriedly said, "Please forgive me, my lord. This matter has nothing to do with Madam. It is my fault. I..."

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by a cold shout:

"What are you?"

Su Qingwan had come back to her senses. She took a step forward, stood in front of Qinshu, looked directly into Yan Mingjue's eyes and said:

"It is indeed my fault that I failed to manage this matter properly. I admit this."

Although she was not the one who asked someone to pass the message to Aunt Hong, she was in charge of the rear quarters and it was indeed her fault that she had not discovered the matter for so many days.

"Since you admit it, it doesn't count as me wronging you."

"Since you can't manage this family, then hand it over to someone else."

"From now on, all matters concerning the harem will be handled by Concubine Qin, with Butler Zhou assisting."

Yan Ming took away Su Qingwan's position as housekeeper without saying a word.

Qinshu and Miaohua couldn't help but want to speak, but were stopped by Su Qingwan.

She glanced at Yan Mingjue indifferently, said nothing, and turned and left.

There was no apparent change in her appearance, but from her gradually quickening pace and increasingly sinister eyes, one could tell that she was angry.

Back in the yard, Qinshu knelt down again:

"Madam, this is all my fault. If I had been more careful, this wouldn't have happened."

"It's none of your business. Get up."

Su Qingwan did not blame Qinshu.

"Why is the lord like that? He didn't even ask Miss a question."

Miao Hua felt sorry for Su Qingwan.

Hearing this, Su Qingwan laughed sarcastically.

Originally, she thought that she and Yan Ming were allies who knew each other well, but today's events made her realize clearly that their relationship was not equal at all.

The so-called ally was nothing more than her wishful thinking.

In this house, he was like the king who had the final say, and she was the subject who had to depend on him to survive at any time.

He was in a good mood and could give her the power to manage the household.

When he is in a bad mood, he can take back the housekeeping power at any time.

Life is not easy for women in the world, and even more so for women in the harem.

Unfortunately, she had had enough of this kind of life of relying on others.

Su Qingwan closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she no longer saw the disappointment and anger she had felt before:

"Prepare the carriage, I want to leave the house!"
