After my mother read my mind, my whole family rebelled

Shen Yuyao couldn't help but pretend to exclaim.

If something dirty happened to the women in the backyard of Prince Ning's mansion, Shen Yuyao would not be able to explain to Prince Ning.

The identity and responsibilities of the mistress of Prince Ning's Mansion made Shen Yuyao frown slightly.

If the backyard is quiet and peaceful, life would be too boring; but if there is something going on in the backyard, it would be all gossip among women.

Shen Yuyao picked up the teacup that Zi Su handed over, took a sip, and said in a cold voice: "Come and tell me, who is causing trouble in Prince Ning's Mansion?"

When Huang heard Shen Yuyao ask, she didn't dare to hide it anymore.

She walked out from the crowd of young ladies, knelt directly in front of Shen Yuyao, and said faintly: "Reporting to the princess, Feng's maid Chenxiang spoke foul words, she framed me... wuwuwu... please help me, princess."

As he spoke, he couldn't help crying.

He really looked so aggrieved and pitiful.

"Don't just cry, tell me what happened in detail." Shen Yuyao found a piece of winter melon candy from the fruit plate and handed it to Xia Xiaoxian.

Don’t you want to eat melon?

It’s New Year’s Eve, and there seems to be no melon to eat!

But there are some candies.

Xia Xiaoxian grinned, took the winter melon candy with his chubby hand, stuffed it into his mouth, and ate it with relish.

Huang saw that Shen Yuyao didn't seem to care too much about her past in the Li Dynasty, and she felt a little relieved.

She hurriedly called out her maid Xixin, and they knelt on the ground together. She told everyone exactly what had happened that morning.

It turned out that Feng's maid Chenxiang had always had some disagreements with Huang's maid Xixin, and in the morning the two of them had a dispute over the distribution of charcoal in the palace.

As the two maids quarreled, they dug up some old accounts of Huang during the Li Dynasty.

Chenxiang even revealed that Huang had an affair with his brother-in-law and neighbor during the Li Dynasty.

Huang was furious and was even more afraid that this matter would reach the ears of Prince Ning, and she and her entire family might be in danger of their lives.

So she quickly found Yang Ma, the manager of Chuxiu Palace, and called the servants to beat Chenxiang with a stick, hoping to make an example of him and shut up the maids who came from the Li Dynasty with her.

Nanny Yang originally wanted to go to the princess's bedroom to ask for instructions, but Huang told her that Chenxiang was a maid brought from Feng's family of the Li Dynasty, and they could deal with her on their own.

Nanny Yang then became bold and called the servant over to help torture Huang.

It happened that Zi Su and Xia Xiaoxian passed by Chuxiu Palace, which alarmed the princess.

After telling the whole story in one breath, Huang did not forget to cry out that she was wronged, saying that she was just warm and proactive in treating others on a daily basis, but was misunderstood by some people with ulterior motives as having private relations with others.

【Tsk... Huang dares to do it but not to take responsibility.】

[Chenxiang is not talking nonsense. Huang Shi is indeed having an affair with someone.]

【And when Huang was brought to the capital as a tribute, she was found to be pregnant.】

[As they approached the capital, something happened to the Huang family. This was all recorded in the Sansheng Book.]

[Historical records state that "one night when he urinated, something came out of his vagina, about the size of an eggplant, with a piece of flesh wrapped in skin." ]

Shen Yuyao naturally remembered Xia Xiaoxian's feelings when she first met these people, and she already knew the truth.

Shen Yuyao thought to herself that the historians of later generations were really amazing. Although they did not explicitly mention this "strange story of going to the toilet", they recorded in detail the size, dimensions, and composition of the "eggplant fish" that Huang excreted when he went to the toilet.

I don’t know how much imagination it has brought to future generations.

It seems that as a member of the royal family, one can offend anyone, but the person one must not offend is the historian.

Thinking of this, Shen Yuyao couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.

Everyone in Chuxiu Palace looked at the princess for a long while, but she didn't give any instructions, and they all stood there in a daze.

“Ahem… Ahem…”

Zi Su coughed lightly to remind Shen Yuyao.

She was too familiar with her young lady, who often had wild ideas. She wondered what the young lady was thinking about at this moment?

"Uh, this matter..."

But this matter must not be exposed from Prince Ning’s Mansion.

Firstly, Shen Yuyao was worried that if these words were not controlled and spread out of the Ning Palace, it would tarnish the reputation of the Ning Palace and even offend the Queen Mother.

Secondly, if she punished them all severely, people in the palace would criticize her and think that she, as the mistress, was jealous and could not tolerate the concubines sent by the empress.

A quiet and harmonious backyard is the consistent style of Prince Ning's Mansion.

Now we can only deal with this matter as simply and quickly as possible. We must not let these dirty things ferment in Prince Ning's Mansion and then spread to the capital.

Shen Yuyao sorted out her thoughts and returned to normal.

She said in a cold voice: "It is the end of the year and the prince is about to return triumphantly. The Ning Palace should be harmonious and happy."

"But on the morning of New Year's Eve, there was a quarrel in the backyard. You..."

Shen Yuyao glanced around and saw that everyone had a solemn look on their faces, no longer as playful as before. Then she continued, "On the morning of New Year's Eve, two maids quarreled and the masters carried out a private punishment..."

"You...you, please really give face to me, the princess!"

"Since these two maids are so unruly, it stands to reason that the two young masters do not discipline them strictly on a daily basis."

"Even after arriving at Prince Ning's mansion, they were not able to properly follow the nanny to learn the rules. Therefore, Feng and Huang were each fined three months' salary and were required to copy the mansion's rules three times."

"As for the two maids, you both said they were your own maids, so take them back to your respective rooms and give them a good lesson. If something like this happens again, don't blame me for being ruthless and selling out your personal maids."

"As for the dirty things the maids said without restraint, I have never heard of them, and everyone in Prince Ning's Mansion has certainly never heard of them!

Shen Yuyao's voice sank: "Do you all...understand?"

All the ladies and palace maids of Chuxiu Palace looked at each other and responded in unison.

No one expected that Princess Ning would not carefully distinguish the right and wrong of the whole matter, but simply said that both parties were wrong and should be punished.

Moreover, the punishment was not too severe.

Didn’t the Great Xia Dynasty attach the greatest importance to women’s chastity?

Why does the princess choose to avoid the important issues?

All the ladies from the Li Dynasty looked doubtful, but the two new concubines from the Great Xia Dynasty understood in their hearts that they had not yet been favored, so who would care about your past?

And everyone could clearly see that both Huang and Feng were relieved.

There was even more gratitude in Feng's eyes. She originally thought that Chenxiang might not be able to save his life. After all, Chenxiang was still committing a crime of insubordination.

Huang, who was still kneeling on the ground, could also be seen to be in a more relaxed mood.

Shen Yuyao did not pursue her past in the Li Dynasty. She thought that as time went by, no one would mention it anymore, and her life would be saved.
