Chapter 88 Establishing Rules
"You are really good at confusing right and wrong! It was obviously your unruly sister who seduced the master and broke the rules of the mansion. According to the family law, she should be beaten to death.
Then you were so bold as to poison me and even implicated my other two good sisters, causing us to vomit and almost endanger our lives. In addition, you stole your colleagues' property. These things have been exposed, but how many more have not been exposed?
Now, I just asked others to come and take a look at the things you secretly took out of the house with the help of Pan Fu, how can it be considered as humiliating you? Do people in this world have to revolve around you two sisters? Only you can take advantage? Have you forgotten what your status is? "As the voice became more and more sharp, my eyes became more and more fierce.
I continued, "Concubine, a concubine is nothing more than an object, a toy given to each other by the nobles. Do you understand? You really take yourself seriously. I have never seen a concubine dare to speak loudly to the master's maid in the mansion! It's a waste of words to tell you so much..."
Seeing that I was already showing impatience, Xiao Zhengxuan turned to Seventeen and ordered, "The maid Yun'er poisoned the princess, give her a cup of poisoned wine."
Hearing this, Yun'er froze in place as if struck by lightning. She could never have imagined that things would develop to this point.
"No, Your Majesty! Please spare my life. I know I was wrong." Yun'er cried and begged for mercy from Xiao Zhengxuan, but it was all in vain.
"Yes, sir!" After receiving the order, Seventeen took the other two guards and dragged Yun'er, who was already frightened to the point of being limp all over, to the door.
As the crying and shouting faded away, the yard finally returned to peace.
I coughed lightly, cleared my throat, and then said to the people who were still kneeling on the ground: "I think you all have seen clearly about Yun'er and Lan'er. Now, I have a few things to explain to you clearly.
First, the palace has its own rules, and we hope everyone can strictly follow them. If someone feels that a certain rule is difficult to implement, they can discuss whether there is a more appropriate solution.
If you have a good plan, please consult with Butler Pan. If Butler Pan cannot make a decision, please come and report to the prince and me.
Secondly, if your family is in financial difficulty and needs money urgently, or if you need help from the palace for something beyond your ability, you can also tell Butler Pan. After the situation is verified, the prince and I will definitely not sit idly by. I only ask that you remain absolutely loyal to the palace, and the palace will certainly not treat you unfairly.
But it is not allowed to break the law! It is even more not allowed to bully others in the name of the palace.
Thirdly, if you or your family members have embroidery, sewing, painting and other similar skills, you are also welcome to recommend them to me. You can directly contact me or Xiao Cui in Haitangyuan. "Great, take advantage of the fact that there are many people at this time to recruit a job for my silk shop." I turned to look at Xiao Zhengxuan and asked, "Does the prince have anything else to tell you?"
Xiao Zhengxuan responded with a serious face: "All matters, big or small, in the palace should be arranged by the princess. You must be strict with yourselves and do not make mistakes, so as not to make big mistakes, which will not only cost you your own life, but also implicate your family members." His tone was stern and firm.
Hearing this, all the servants responded in unison: "We will follow the instructions of the prince and princess~"
"Well, let's all go down!" Xiao Zhengxuan stood up and walked towards me slowly, asking with concern: "Would you like to go inside and rest for a while? Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?"
"I'm hungry. I was hungry when I was arguing with Yun'er just now." At this moment, I suddenly remembered something, and immediately turned my head and shouted to Xiang'er who was walking at the end of the team: "Xiang'er!"
Xiang Er quickly turned around when she heard the voice, took a few quick steps forward, bowed and said, "I am here, please give me your instructions, Princess."
"I want to ask you, do you have any relatives in the other courtyard?" I stared at her and asked softly.
"My princess, I was sold to someone else by my parents when I was young...so I have no relatives anymore." After she finished speaking, she buried her head even deeper.
"Oh, I'm so sorry. Sorry, sorry." Seeing this, I hurried forward and tried to help her stand up.
Who would have thought that after hearing what I said, she was so frightened that she immediately knelt down and said, "Princess, you are too kind! This is really embarrassing for me!"
Xiao Zhengxuan, who was standing by, quickly grabbed me and I came to my senses.
After calming down a bit, I cleared my throat and said, "After observing you for a while, I found that you are quite capable and smart. I wonder if you are willing to follow me in the future?"
Xiang'er suddenly raised her head when she heard that, her face full of disbelief, and stared at me.
Butler Pan, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but laugh when he saw this scene: "Hey, the princess just praised you for being smart, why are you so silly now?"
"Xiang'er is of course extremely happy to do so. Thank you, Princess." Xiang'er replied excitedly, and then kowtowed several times on the ground.
"Well, that's good. In that case, you should go down with Butler Pan to rest first and see if there is anything else in the villa that needs to be brought over. You can come to find me after everything is packed up." After giving the instructions, Xiao Zhengxuan gently helped me walk into the house.
"What would you like to eat, Princess?" He carefully helped me sit down, then poured me a cup of hot tea and handed it to me.
"Huh? Onion Rabbit!" I looked at him happily with my eyes wide open.
Xiao Zhengxuan nodded slightly in response: "Okay... someone come..."
However, before Xiao Zhengxuan could finish his words, the two imperial doctors at the door rushed in impatiently and tried to dissuade him.
Doctor Xue said in a panic, "Princess, your condition has just improved. You finally stopped vomiting. You must not eat spicy food!"
Doctor Zhang at the side also echoed and agreed: "Yes, yes, you should eat some light and easy-to-digest rice porridge. After your body fully recovers in a few days, you can slowly resume your normal diet!"
Hearing this, Xiao Zhengxuan couldn't help but frown and said in annoyance: "Hey, how could I have forgotten about this? It's really thanks to the two imperial doctors for reminding me!"
While they were talking, I suddenly remembered something, so I looked up and said to the two doctors, "By the way, I'd like to trouble you two to go to Haitang Garden and help me see if the conditions of the two sisters in my hospital have improved." After all, there is only Doctor Liu in Haitang Garden now, and I don't know if he can handle it alone.
"Okay, okay, we'll go right away." As soon as the words fell, the two imperial doctors hurriedly followed the servant to Haitang Garden.
Xiao Zhengxuan instructed Jinxiu, "Jinxiu, go to the kitchen immediately and tell Uncle Zhang what the imperial physician said. Make sure it's cooked and sent over. Also order a plate of crystal dragon and phoenix cake."
After watching Jinxiu leave, I turned to look at Xiao Zhengxuan, the corners of my mouth slightly raised, revealing a sly smile, and teased: "Why are you so anxious to send her away? Are you worried that if I look at her for a few more seconds, I will ask you for her~" As I spoke, I stared at him closely, with a sinister look in my eyes.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Zhengxuan was stunned at first, then he burst into laughter and responded righteously: "How could I be so stingy!" However, the smile on his face that he could not conceal betrayed his true thoughts.
Then, I said thoughtfully: "This Jinxiu must be extraordinary. I don't know whether she has martial arts or not, but judging from her calmness when facing emergencies, it is very rare. I like her very much~ So..." Having said that, I suddenly clasped my hands together, put on a pleading look, and looked straight at Xiao Zhengxuan.
Faced with my behavior, Xiao Zhengxuan smiled helplessly and sighed, "Almost all the capable people around me have been snatched away by you, Princess." His words revealed a bit of helplessness and doting.
"Oh, that's all thanks to you, Your Highness. Otherwise, how could I get such a great bargain... Come on, I'll use tea instead of wine to toast you, Your Highness, and thank you for your reluctance to part with it!" Before I finished speaking, I raised my head and drank the tea in the cup. As a result, I was grimacing because of the burn. I couldn't help but exclaimed: "Oh my God, it's so hot! Drink it slowly!"
Xiao Zhengxuan looked at me silently, with a hint of cunning in his eyes.
I immediately became alert and said, "Humph, don't think I don't know, you must be thinking of something bad again!"
I saw him blew away the hot air in the teacup with a guilty look on his face, and then sipped it slowly in small sips.
At this moment, Xiao Zhengxuan secretly thought in his heart: "Hehe, in more than half a month, you will have to move here. By then, these two hidden cards will have to follow you..."
At this moment, I couldn't help but shudder all over and muttered to myself: "Oh, this vomiting and diarrhea are really tormenting, why do I feel a little cold..."
Hearing what I said, Xiao Zhengxuan quickly said gently: "Why don't you go to the couch and rest for a while, it will be warmer if you cover yourself with a quilt."
"Yeah, okay~ I'm still a little sleepy now, so I'll take a nap first. Remember to wake me up when the food is delivered."
"Okay, just sleep well. I'll be right next to you. Call me if you need anything when you wake up." Xiao Zhengxuan said softly, while carefully covering me with a blanket.
After a while, Seventeen quietly walked to Xiao Zhengxuan and reported to him in a low voice: "Master, I have already found out that this matter was not done by Prime Minister Fu."
Xiao Zhengxuan nodded slightly, indicating that he understood. He sneered and said, "Humph, I don't think he dares to play any more tricks."
"Ever since receiving the order to send Fu Heyi to Lingnan to join the army, the Prime Minister's Mansion has been in turmoil all day long. I think before he left, the Prime Minister himself was probably too busy to take care of himself, so how could he have the energy to take care of other things." Seventeen analyzed.
Xiao Zhengxuan warned Shiqi, "That being said, we must not let our guard down. Take a few of your trusted men with you and investigate the people in the palace carefully, including the manors and shops outside. Report to me immediately if there is anything suspicious. Make sure the palace is safe."
"As you command, my lord. I'll do it right away!" Seventeen took the order and turned to leave. After taking a few steps, he turned back and reported, "The second prince has arrived."
"Oh?" Xiao Zhengxuan frowned slightly and strode out of the room.
Seeing Xiao Zhengchen hurried over, Xiao Zhengxuan asked, "Why is Chen'er here?"
"My father and mother are very worried about my sister-in-law. I am also worried, so I came out to visit her. How is my sister-in-law doing now?" Xiao Zhengchen was anxious and looked into the house impatiently.
"Don't worry, Chen'er. My sister-in-law is fine and has just fallen asleep. Come with me to the study and don't disturb her rest." Xiao Zhengxuan said as he took Chen'er to the study next to him.
"What! How dare he be so bold and presumptuous? If he were in the palace, I would definitely kill all nine generations of his clan!" Xiao Zhengchen was so angry that his hair stood on end and he slammed the table and stood up.
"Oh, by the way, brother! Miss Ling'er has also been poisoned. How is she now?" Xiao Zhengchen asked anxiously.
"Don't worry. There are three imperial doctors in Haitang Garden now. If you are not in a hurry to go back, just wait here for a while. I believe there will be news soon." Xiao Zhengxuan comforted.
"Yes, okay, I'll wait. When I came out, mother asked me to convey a message to my brother." Xiao Zhengchen looked at his brother and said solemnly.
"My queen mother told me to let you take good care of the servants and not to provoke the princess all the time unless necessary, so as not to cause trouble for her!" Xiao Zhengchen conveyed his mother's original words to him verbatim.
After hearing these words, Xiao Zhengxuan's face showed a speechless expression.
Xiao Zhengchen added: "My mother thinks that my brother asked the imperial physician to treat the princess because he must have pissed her off. The key point is that after the imperial physician Liu left, he never returned to the palace. Later, two imperial physicians went there one after another but also had no news. He was never able to report the princess's condition to the palace.
My mother was very worried and even planned to go out of the palace to visit. Fortunately, I persuaded her in time and came to check on the situation first. I also advised her that my sister-in-law would not let herself get hurt because of a little maid climbing into the master's bed. "
At this time, three imperial doctors happened to return from Haitang Garden to report.
They were very surprised to see Xiao Zhengchen present, and said in unison: "Your Majesty, the Second Prince."
Xiao Zhengchen looked at the doctors anxiously, and couldn't wait to ask, "How are Miss Ling'er and the others? Are they seriously injured?"
Imperial Doctor Liu stepped forward and replied respectfully, "To answer your Highness the Second Prince, the two girls from Haitang Garden are not in danger of death. The amount of porridge they consumed was small, so the symptoms they experienced were limited to vomiting. The vomiting has stopped now, so please rest assured, Your Highness and the Second Prince."
