Quick Wear: The Enchanting Concubine, Rules of Survival and Plunder

"Yes." What could Jiang Chunxi say? She just went outside and knelt down obediently.

Xichun and Dongling were almost dying of anxiety. They knew, of course, that their master was taking her anger out on others, but they also knew that their master was very angry, so they did not dare to plead for Jiang Chunxi at this time.

"Go check and see who is betraying our family," Liu Hanqing said to Dong Ling, "I, the Crown Prince's Consort, want to see who is the one who is betraying our family and gossiping with the old lady."

"Yes." Dong Ling naturally took the order and went to do the job immediately.

Jiang Chunxi knelt outside until noon. Fortunately, she had made preparations in advance, otherwise her knees would have been broken from kneeling.

Yes, Jiang Chunxi tied thick knee pads on her knees before going out. She just wanted to be prepared, but she didn't expect to actually use them.

Dong Ling also found out who left the yard last night. It was a second-class maid. She sneaked out of the yard alone at night. It was obvious that she was the traitor.

Naturally, Liu Hanqing would not deal with the person immediately, otherwise, that damn old woman would have another excuse to find fault with her. She planned to wait a few days and then find a sufficient reason to get rid of the bitch.

"Master, Chunxi has been kneeling outside for nearly two hours. Shouldn't we let her get up?" Dong Ling looked at Liu Hanqing's face and pleaded for Jiang Chunxi. "Otherwise, if Chunxi continues to kneel, I'm afraid her legs will be crippled. If that happens, wouldn't the old lady have a good reason to select a few concubines for the prince to serve."

Liu Hanqing's expression was extremely ugly, and she immediately sighed in a pretentious manner, "Oh! Forget it, if I hadn't been mad at the old lady, I wouldn't have taken my anger out on Chunxi. Go and get Chunxi up, and let her go back directly. She doesn't need to come in to thank me."

As the master has revoked the punishment on the servants, the servants would naturally thank him. Even though Jiang Chunxi is now the prince's concubine, a slave is still a slave, and it is the same even if she becomes a concubine.

"Yes, I'll go get Chunxi up right away." Dong Ling hurried outside.

Liu Hanqing's eyes dimmed.

The relationship between her maids is really good. Even though Xichun didn't plead for Chunxi, her master could see that she was worried about Chunxi.

This is not possible!

In the past, Chunxi was a maidservant by her side, so she naturally didn’t care about the good relationship between the senior maids. But now that Chunxi has become a concubine, there are some things that she really has to be on guard against.

It seems that Xichun and Dongling must be married off as soon as possible.

In the original owner's previous life, Xichun and Dongling were married off by Liu Hanqing when they were five months pregnant with their first child. She married the son of the manager of her dowry shop.

Otherwise, if Xichun and Dongling had stayed by Liu Hanqing's side to serve her, perhaps the original owner's son would not have been killed so easily.

Dong Ling came outside and she and Shi Liu helped Jiang Chunxi up on both sides.

"Don't blame the master," Dong Ling said, "The master was humiliated by the old lady this morning, so he couldn't control his temper and took it out on you. He didn't really have any hostility towards you."

"I see," Jiang Chunxi naturally pretended to be understanding, "That's what I was thinking. The master is such a kind person, how could he punish me for no reason? It turns out that I was humiliated by the old lady."

Then, Jiang Chunxi grabbed Dong Ling's hand and said, "You and Xichun should persuade the master. Don't let the master get stuck in a dead end. The master definitely doesn't want to see me at all now, so the task of comforting the master is left to you."

"Don't worry! Xichun and I will persuade the master," Dong Ling looked at Jiang Chunxi worriedly, "but you, you have suffered so much, you should go back and lie down quickly, and let the servants rub your knees with medicinal wine. You have been kneeling for so long, your knees must be bruised."

"Yes!" Jiang Chunxi nodded, "Then I'll go back first."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Chunxi was supported by Shi Liu and left the main courtyard. From the way she limped, it was obvious that she had suffered a lot.

Although she wore knee pads, kneeling for so long was still very painful. Jiang Chunxi just wanted to go back and lie down.

Xiao Chen did not return home at noon, and did not return to the Duke's Mansion until dark.

Because of what happened last night, Xiao Chen was too lazy to go to Liu Hanqing's place to act, and went straight to Jiang Chunxi's yard.

"Prince, you are finally back." Jiang Chunxi burst into tears as soon as she saw Xiao Chen, and she did not get up from the bed.

"What's wrong with you?" Xiao Chen quickly came to sit on the bed, "Did something happen? Did someone bully you?"

"Prince, you have to make the decision for me," Shi Liu immediately became Jiang Chunxi's mouthpiece, "I went to pay my respects to the Crown Princess this morning, but I didn't expect that the Crown Princess would get angry for no reason and punish me to kneel for the whole morning. You don't even know how bruised my knees are."

"Shut up," Jiang Chunxi scolded Shi Liu, "Is this what a slave like you should say? Who gave you the guts to make up stories about the Crown Prince's wife? Get out. You don't need to serve me here. Forget it this time, but if it happens again, then don't serve me. I can't afford to have such a bold slave serve me as a concubine."

Shi Liu pretended to be frightened, then immediately retreated in horror, as if she was afraid that Jiang Chunxi really didn't want her.

Xiao Chen lifted the quilt, and when he saw that Jiang Chunxi's knees were horribly bruised, his face turned extremely dark.

In fact, Jiang Chunxi's knees only look scary, but there is actually nothing wrong with them.

"What's wrong with you? Did the Crown Prince's Consort really punish you for no reason?" Xiao Chen said coldly:

"Alas! Actually, it's no wonder that the Crown Prince's Consort is so angry. It's really because the old lady went too far. This morning when the Crown Prince's Consort went to pay her respects to the old lady, she was severely humiliated by her."

"I have served the Crown Prince's Concubine since she was a child. How could I not understand her? The Crown Prince's Concubine has never been humiliated by anyone since she was a child. Therefore, facing the humiliation of the old lady, the pain and anger in her heart can be imagined. That's why she lost her mind and took her anger out on me."

"I think she is jealous," Xiao Chen still had a dark face, "It must be because I came to your room again last night, so Liu Hanqing didn't like you and deliberately found fault with you to punish you. There was no such thing as being humiliated by the old lady."

Once a person stops loving someone, he will assume the greatest malice towards the other person. Xiao Chen is in this situation now. He feels that Liu Hanqing definitely did it on purpose and it has nothing to do with venting her anger on others.
