At this time, Butler Cheng and Cheng Feng also knelt outside the Lanyue Pavilion, "Please punish me, Crown Princess. I know I was wrong."

Jiang Fenghua stood up from her seat and walked out. "Butler Cheng, Manager Cheng, please stand up quickly. It's not your fault for what happened today. Even if the Thousand Faces Man didn't exchange your gifts, they would have found other ways to enter the Jiang Mansion, and what happened today would still have happened." In fact, she also suspected Manager Cheng, but since he was the one who gave the gift, she really couldn't suspect him.

Butler Cheng said, "No matter what, it was because of my negligence that someone took advantage of me and almost harmed Master Jiang and Young Master Jiang. I am ashamed!"

Cheng Feng also said, "Please don't punish Miss Hongxiu, it's all Cheng Feng's fault, I am willing to bear it all. If the Crown Princess wants to punish you, please punish Cheng Feng alone, Cheng Feng will have no complaints."

Butler Cheng also said, "This matter is not Hongxiu's fault. It's all my fault. The Crown Princess spared Hongxiu because she served the Crown Princess wholeheartedly."

They saw Hongxiu taking the rattan stick into Lanyue Pavilion, so they thought Jiang Fenghua was going to vent her anger on Hongxiu and punish her, so they all rushed over.

For a moment, Jiang Fenghua didn't know what to say. Seeing that Hongxiu was protected by someone, she couldn't describe the feeling in her heart. She was very happy for Hongxiu, but she was also afraid that they were not protecting her sincerely.

Hongxiu and Lianye were sold when they were young. When they were very young, their mother bought them into the mansion to keep her company. Although they were maids, the Jiang family never lacked food and clothing. They were like her sisters, so naturally she hoped that they would be happy in their lives.

Hong Xiu tidied herself up and walked out calmly and reservedly. In order not to embarrass the Crown Princess, she took the initiative to help Butler Cheng up, "Butler Cheng, please get up first. The Crown Princess did not blame this servant, nor did she blame you and Butler Cheng."

Butler Cheng also stood up. Seeing her red eyes, he felt very embarrassed and said, "Then I will take my leave."

"Butler Cheng, thank you." Jiang Fenghua suddenly said, "Thank you for preparing a gift for my eldest brother. The Jiang family has received your kindness."

Butler Cheng paused.

Then she continued, "Thank you for teaching Hongxiu so carefully. I have never regarded Hongxiu and Lianye as maids. They are like my relatives and sisters. If Hongxiu wants to get married, or if she has someone she likes, I will not stop her. It is all up to her. There is only one thing I hope she can be happy, and that the husband she marries truly loves and cares about her."

Without waiting for Butler Cheng to speak, Hong Xiu said in a deep voice, "I will not marry."

Cheng Feng wanted to say something, but was stopped by Hong Xiu. She stood straight with a cold look in her eyes, "Manager Cheng, I will not marry you. I have already made it clear to you."

After saying this, Hongxiu bowed slightly to Jiang Fenghua and said, "I still have things to do, so I'll take my leave first." After saying this, she turned around and left without any reluctance, without even giving Cheng Feng a chance to react.

After returning to the Prince's Mansion today, Cheng Feng confessed his feelings to her. He said that he had liked her for a long time. He had seen her when she was still a maid in the Jiang Mansion, and they often went to buy cakes and pastries.

Later, she followed Jiang Fenghua to marry into Prince Heng's Mansion, and he found out that she was a maid in the Jiang family. He had also secretly seen her several times, and even worked as a coachman for them several times. Hongxiu might not have any impression of this, but after he said this, Hongxiu still scolded him.

She also said more heartless and ruthless words, saying that she would never like him, would never marry him, and would follow the Crown Princess for the rest of her life.

She even blamed Cheng Feng, who almost harmed the Jiang family and the Crown Princess...

Hongxiu knew how hard the young lady had worked since she was a child and how good the Jiang family had been to them. However, due to her negligence, the Jiang family was almost brought to an irretrievable end. If the Jiang family was really ransacked today, she would never be able to atone for her sins even if she died.

These words were like a knife cutting Cheng Feng's heart, making him feel heartbroken.

Although Butler Cheng didn't know what Hongxiu had said to his son in private, he felt embarrassed when he saw Hongxiu explain it so clearly. He took his son's hand and bowed to Jiang Fenghua, "I will take my leave first."

Cheng Feng looked at the empty yard and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it and left with his father.

-

Jiang Fenghua arrived at Hongxiu's room and saw her lying on the bed crying.

Jiang Fenghua held her hand and said, "It hurts, right?"

Hongxiu's tears kept flowing, her voice choked, and she kept shaking her head: "No."

Jiang Fenghua explained, "I thought you liked Cheng Feng, and I thought that if Cheng Feng had good character and was sincere to you."

"I won't marry him. I want to follow the young lady for the rest of my life." Hongxiu's eyes were firm.

Jiang Fenghua smiled and said, "In fact, my mother has also prepared dowries for you. If you want to get married, she will definitely let you marry in a grand manner.

Hongxiu, I hope you and Lianye can find happiness. Don't be humble or timid. Hold your head high and marry someone who truly loves you and become his legal wife.

I just hope that no matter what, no matter what day it is, you will love yourself well, and not love men with all your heart. It is always right for women to be careful, and not say stupid things like not getting married. "

Hongxiu threw herself into Jiang Fenghua's arms and cried even more sadly, "I know."

"You should stay in your room and have a good rest tonight. You have cried like a big cat. People who don't know would think that your mistress has wronged you." Jiang Fenghua said, "You are both at the age of falling in love for the first time. I won't say much. Just let it go!"

Hongxiu stared at Jiang Fenghua and felt that she was as warm as a mother and always calm and steady.

If Jiang Fenghua knew that she compared herself to her mother, she would probably have a heart attack. Is she that old?

Lian Ye smiled and said, "I'm not in love yet, miss, don't count me in."

Jiang Fenghua glared at her, and didn't tease her by mentioning Lin Feng's matter, but just said, "It will open sooner or later."

Maybe Butler Cheng is Queen Cheng's man. He monitors the Prince's Mansion everywhere and reports to Queen Cheng, making her feel uneasy. She really doesn't know how sincere Cheng Feng is to Hongxiu.

In fact, Butler Cheng was not wrong, and he was quite caring towards her in her previous life.

However, Cheng Feng did not confess his feelings to Hong Xiu in his previous life, which made her doubt Cheng Feng's sincerity.

After saying that, Jiang Fenghua left the room without staying any longer. She knew that Hongxiu must have a different attitude towards Cheng Feng, otherwise she would not trust him so much. If it were usual, she would at least check what was in the gift box.

Lian Ye wanted to comfort Hong Xiu, but she didn't know how. She also gave Hong Xiu some space to think alone.

Lian Ye couldn't figure it out, and sat in the corridor talking to herself, "How could this happen? Why does Butler Cheng's son like Hong Xiu? Does Hong Xiu like her too? We clearly said that we would follow the young lady and take care of her for the rest of our lives."

Aoxue walked towards her, "Doesn't Lin Feng like you too? What's so strange about this?"

"Who wants him to like her?" Lian Ye blushed. "I don't want to like him. He's so naughty all the time. I don't know if those women in the palace have problems with their eyes to like her."

Aoxue also sees through things but doesn't say anything. Everyone has their own thoughts. Her life used to be very boring. Everyone only knew how to train, and their goal was to make themselves the most powerful person.

Except when she sees him, her heart would occasionally get a little excited. She wondered if this could be considered love?

-

Jiang Fenghua lay in bed unable to fall asleep. She wondered what Su Xuan's expression would be when he saw Wu Changshou's body appear at the gate of the Su family?

She knew that even if the emperor knew that the Su family had placed many secret sentries in the palace, he would still be very cautious and would not really touch the Su family, because he was the emperor, the ruler of a country, and he would not take risks.

Even if Xie Shang wanted to threaten the Su family, the emperor had instilled in him the idea that the Su family could not be touched, so he would definitely think twice before acting and choose the most ingenious way to make the Su family behave themselves.

Since they were all hesitant, Jiang Fenghua simply gave them a push and also gave the Su family a push.

Su Xuan would never have thought that she had also placed secret sentries in the palace, and only thought that it was the prince who did it.

If you want to take action against the Su family, you can only rely on Xie Shang. You can't count on the emperor. He is old and just wants stability and peace.
