Professional Ethics of a Concubine

"Concubine, I know about this. The news that you taught Miss Chen a lesson at Fang Mansion that day has now spread outside.

These ladies must have given you such gifts to thank you for what you said, so that people can no longer casually mock the money-grubbing business women. "

Ruyi quickly spoke up and showed his enthusiasm.

After she was scolded at Fang's house that day, she became much more honest and obedient. Not only did she actively do her job, but she also stopped talking too much.

Ye Qingzhi also guessed this.

However, she felt that teaching Chen Youxuan a lesson was just a small matter, so how could it have such a big impact?

Her small storeroom was almost full from all the gifts she received.

At the Fang Mansion banquet, Ye Qingzhi did become a little famous because she confronted the Chen family's mistress and made Chen Youxuan cry.

This person, as long as he is alive, whether you like it or not, is just a stooge.

Either you set off others, or others set off you.

If Ye Qingzhi had confronted the daughter of a minor official, not only would people not think she was powerful and difficult to deal with, they would also think she was arrogant and domineering, taking advantage of her power to bully others.

If she were scolded again, she would be worthy of being a merchant's daughter. She would become arrogant once she got the upper hand and had no manners or rules.

She dared to confront the Crown Princess's younger sister, who admitted her mistake and acknowledged that she was wrong about the merchant girl being money-minded. She also forced the Crown Princess's mother to give in with a few words, and even bowed her head to apologize to her.

Everyone praised her for being neither humble nor arrogant and for her courage.

The same is true in the workplace. Don't attack colleagues at the same level, and don't try to show your superiority to new recruits.

You must manage upwards and control your leaders. Only then can you be truly great and establish personal prestige so that others will not dare to underestimate you.

When those merchant daughters heard how Ye Qingzhi forced Chen Youxuan to admit her mistakes and how she cleansed them of the smell of money, they all respected her and were moved by her.

Finally, a powerful boss spoke up for these business women!

Concubine Ye was their mouthpiece, expressing their inner thoughts.

They are daughters of merchants, and some of them marry into families of scholars known for their scholarly origins.

Influenced by Confucian culture and worldly affairs, although the status of a scholar's family was higher than that of a merchant's family, some families only had a few acres of thin land and were very poor.

The family's food and drink all depend on their dowry, but once they are not satisfied, they will scold them with disgust, saying that they are merchant daughters who stink of money, and that they are lowly and do not know etiquette.

However, the world is like this, and they really have nowhere to vent their grievances and frustrations!

Therefore, these business women are in great need of leaders like Concubine Ye, bigwigs in their circle!

It is no exaggeration to say that Ye Qingzhi's actions have subtly improved the status of these merchant women.

To say that it will improve a lot and that the status of merchant women will be changed is absolutely nonsense and exaggerated.

However, with Ye Qingzhi, a person of noble status, taking the lead, the merchant women can take advantage of her momentum and use her as a banner to claim credit for their own actions.

For example, if there is a confused mother-in-law who mocks her daughter-in-law who comes from a merchant family and smells of money, they can use Concubine Ye's words to retort her, and point out that the Crown Princess's sister has admitted that she was wrong, which will definitely make the mother-in-law shut up and dare not say anything more.

This is the influence of a spiritual leader with status and reputation. One sentence is enough to change the direction of some public opinions.

In addition to this, Ye Qingzhi also brought in a lot of incense money for Xiangguo Temple by scaring Chen Youxuan that the Rakshasa ghost and the child ghost would come to take her life.

Xiangguo Temple is already very popular, and as the year draws to a close, more people will come to burn incense and pray.

However, in the past few days, there have been too many nobles going to Xiangguo Temple to burn incense, and because they made a big show when they went out, there was a traffic jam outside the Xiangguo Temple!

The carriage convoys were lined up so far apart that it was inconvenient to burn incense.

But everyone is still willing to come here to burn incense. The reason is that if everyone else comes here and you don’t come, you will feel that your heart is not sincere enough and your prayers will be useless.

Master Liao Yin also found that suddenly many more noble ladies came to see him, asking him to recite sutras for rebirth and donating a lot of silver for this purpose.

Moreover, not only were the silver given a lot, these ladies also had high status.

He is a monk, a high-ranking monk, but he cannot but give face to the nobles, especially in matters like this. If he refuses, he will damage his own reputation.

For a time, Master Liao Yin's work schedule was full.

After three days of intense work, Master Liao Yin was also tired, so he asked the young monk next to him,

"Why is this so?"

"Master, everything originated from a few words from Concubine Ye..." The little monk told Master Yin the whole story that he had heard.

Master Liao Yin,...

After learning the cause and effect of this, Master Liao Yin was silent for a moment, clasped his hands together and bowed.

"Amitabha, you are indeed a person with great fortune."

There were even more porridge stalls on the streets. The victims lamented that Beijing was the better place because there were more wealthy families and they could eat their fill.

Many mistresses in wealthy families have worked as abortion doctors, but they do not have a medical license and force others to make black money. No matter whether they believe in ghosts or not, it is the time to spend some money to ward off bad luck during the New Year.

Just for peace of mind.

After hearing about the series of changes outside, Ye Qingzhi frowned and smelled something different.

As a modern worker, she is bombarded with various public opinions on the Internet every day, and she understands too well the destructive power of public opinion.

Could it be that someone was using her words to deliberately guide and fuel the situation and expand the influence?

Is this to help her build momentum and improve her personal reputation, or is it to flatter her to death?

If there is anything, you should tell your leader, especially when you are undecided and unsure of the situation.

Ye Qingzhi immediately sent someone to deliver a letter to Prince Jing, asking him to pay attention to public opinion in the capital to see if anyone was deliberately manipulating and directing these matters.

She didn't want to be taken advantage of, and she still foolishly thought she was great.

Soon, Prince Jing came back, and what he said surprised Ye Qingzhi.

"It was I who deliberately had your remarks spread, and I also guided them to build momentum for you and enhance your reputation," said King Jing.

"Why?" Ye Qingzhi asked.

"Do you know why all the women in the harem want to be queen?" asked King Jing.

Ye Qingzhi looked at him and didn't speak immediately, mainly because she didn't understand why the leader asked her this question this time, nor did she figure out how this question was related to his campaign for her.

She didn't want to speak easily before she thought it through, so as not to make a bigger mistake.

But I still have to say perfunctorily, "Look at what your Highness is asking. The Queen is the mother of a country and has the most honorable status. Isn't it normal for her to want to be the Queen?"

"Can you tell me specifically how noble the Queen is?" Prince Jing asked again.

"In addition to the status and power that the title of Queen possesses, it also has an innate reputation. Regardless of whether the Queen's virtues are worthy of the title, on the surface, the Queen will be admired and respected by the world. When other women see her, they will kneel and pay their respects..."

As Ye Qingzhi was talking, she suddenly understood something. She stopped and looked at King Jing, then asked,

"Your Highness, are you trying to build momentum for me to improve my personal reputation? Once my personal reputation reaches the top, even without the title of Queen, I will still be respected and admired by the world, is that right?"

"My dear, you are really smart." King Jing stroked the top of her head lovingly. "I think that only in this way can I elevate you to a high position of honor without doing you any wrong."

Ye Qingzhi,...

I'm so panicked, afraid the house will collapse.

She is just an ordinary person with a lot of shortcomings. She doesn't want to be portrayed as a moral role model or a spiritual leader. If the house collapses, people will really die!

"Your Highness, I am deeply touched by your kindness, isn't it... Hey, listen to me... This matter is not that simple..."

Leader, we have indeed not been communicating much recently.

Come on, let’s have a good chat, clear your love brain, and regain your rationality. Don’t just give me something you think is good without asking me whether I want it or not.
