Chapter 309: The Ex-fiancée in the Break-up Upgrade Flow 36

"Thank God, Master, you are finally awake!"

Ruyi, the maid who happened to be bringing in a basin of water to serve her master, saw that the lady had woken up, so she trotted over, put the basin of water on the shelf, helped her sit on the edge of the bed, and carefully placed two square soft pillows behind her.

"Master, do you want some water?" Ru saw the master looking inquiringly at the teapot on the table and asked hurriedly.

Chen Jia nodded, and just as she was about to speak, her throat felt itchy. She covered her lips with her hand and started coughing softly.

Ruyi brought over a cup of tea and served her master to drink it slowly. The pot of tea had been boiled half an hour ago and was now just warm, but not too hot.

The tea was a bit bitter, so Chen Jia only drank half a cup and stopped drinking.

Ruyi ironed the towel again and wiped her face and hands. Her movements were gentle and did not make Chen Jia feel any discomfort at all.

"Where are the maids who came with me?" Chen Jia suddenly discovered that the four maids she brought with her as a dowry were not by her side.

Ruyi explained softly: "Master, the four sisters you brought here have been sent back to the capital by the master. The master doesn't like to have too many people in the room, so he only sent me and Jixiang to serve you personally. My name is Ruyi, and Jixiang is in the small kitchen making medicine for the lady, and he will be here soon!"

The two servants, Jixiang and Ruyi, were previously responsible for sewing and washing clothes in the young master's courtyard, tidying and cleaning the bedroom, etc. They did not serve the young master personally and could barely be considered second-class maids.

Now the young master has sent the lady's four dowry maids back to the capital, and arranged for the two of them to serve the lady personally in her daily life, which can be considered a promotion.

They are now first-class maids!

What a joy!

Who said that once you enter the young master's courtyard, you will never have the chance to get promoted in your life?

Isn't the opportunity right in front of us?

Ruyi, who was determined to hold the mistress's thighs, served her master very hard. After washing her, she used her unique skill - massage skills, to relax the lady's muscles and relieve her discomfort on the wedding night.

"What time is it now?" Chen Jia looked at the bright light in the room and was a little worried. "Did I get up too late?"

Logically speaking, as a princess, it wouldn't make sense for her to meet her parents-in-law the next day, but King Xi's entire family was waiting to see her early in the morning.

But the current situation is that the dynasty is in decline, the princes are in power, and the aristocratic families are in control of the government. The emperor is walking on thin ice.

The emperor had many princesses. In order to consolidate his regime, he used princesses of marriageable age as bargaining chips for marriage alliances and granted them marriages to powerful families.

There are many princesses, many of whom are beautiful, especially Princess Mingyue.

He specially arranged for a nanny from an aristocratic family to raise the princess. It sounds ridiculous, but it is actually sad and helpless.

Originally, he wanted to marry the Princess Mingyue, whom he had carefully nurtured, to the prince of Xi. Unexpectedly, just as the imperial decree of marriage was drafted, the news of the marriage between the prince of Xi and Ruan Ning, the legitimate daughter of the Anyuan family, spread from Longbei to the capital.

The emperor was flexible and immediately made some changes, changing the marriage partner from the prince of King Xi to the third son of King Xi, Xi Changkong.

The King of Xi had three sons. The first two were born to his first wife, and the third was born to his second wife.

King Xi's original wife, Ruan, was from the Anyuan family, so the emperor skipped the second son and chose the third son.

Although the Third Prince was born to the second wife, the second wife of King Xi also came from a prominent family. She was the legitimate daughter of the Zhou family, a noble family in Huainan. This status made her superior to that of the Anyuan family.

I have to mention that the emperor’s little tricks were indeed well planned!

Now that the imperial power is still in place, the princes are eyeing each other covetously, and even the aristocratic families are stirring up trouble and starting to bet on various princes. Marriage is one of the ways to do it.

The King of Xi had just tricked the Emperor, causing him to suffer a loss. The Emperor shamelessly granted him a marriage with the Third Prince. If he causes trouble again, he will probably be attacked by all the princes!

The emperor is used to disgusting people!

King Xi had no choice but to accept the princess as his wife. After all, which vassal family didn't have one or two princesses?

It is precisely because the emperor behaves in this way that the princess is not as popular as the daughters of wealthy families!

When Zhou learned that her beloved son was forced to marry a princess by the current emperor, it gave King Xi a headache every other day.

He had no choice but to hide in the study to seek some peace and quiet. He would never dare go to his concubine at this critical moment. Zhou was very good at managing the household and handled things like the mistress of a noble family.

The only thing is that she is jealous!

King Xi was helpless: How come you don’t have the magnanimity of the mistress in this regard?

The last time Zhou calmed down was on the night her son and daughter-in-law entered the bridal chamber. The maid she sent to inquire about the matter brought back a piece of news that surprised her!

Her son, who had been so cold and indifferent since childhood and almost became a monk, actually stayed in the main house of Qingfeng Courtyard for the first time and did not leave all night!

Zhou began to worry and paced back and forth in the room, worried about one issue: Will her son, who has never been taught by anyone, be okay?

The first two young masters had two or three maids when they were young. King Xi attached great importance to his children's studies, so he arranged maids for them to serve them.

But she was the only child who refused to be persuaded. All the beautiful maids who served in his room became servants who swept the house in his yard.

These maids who were aiming for higher goals were too weak to do anything and had to work hard in Qingfeng Courtyard for half a year. They left crying and howling one by one, and in the end all became the property of the Second Young Master.

He is a playboy who accepts everyone who comes to him!

The Third Young Master was already in his twenties, and the maids who had failed at his service cried one after another. In the end, Qingfeng Courtyard was blacklisted by these ambitious and aspiring maids!

While Zhou laughed at them for having lofty ambitions but treating their lives as worthless as grass, she was secretly getting angry!

She has only this one legitimate son. If he becomes a monk and lives a secluded life, what will she rely on in this huge palace?

So no matter how dissatisfied Zhou was with the emperor's arranged marriage, she made a fuss but did not really try to stop it. What if something worked?

It must be said that Zhou admired his own foresight a thousand times, and he finally had a good attitude towards King Xi who had disappeared for a few days.

On the second day of the wedding, he got up early and waited for the daughter-in-law he had never met before, so that he could see what ability this famous princess had to keep his son!

Even after he had finished drinking the tea offered by the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess, and had talked to them one thing after another, the two people he wanted to see the most still did not show up.

Zhou was a little displeased. She knew her son's temper. How could this new bride be so ignorant of etiquette!

This anger is simply directed at Princess Mingyue!

You know, now is not the time for imperial power to be supreme.

Even if she is an extremely noble princess, when she comes to their Prince Xi's Palace, she has to follow the rules of their palace!
