Professional Ethics of a Concubine

Xie Jin was so annoyed by Ye Qingzhi that he confirmed again and again that she was just big-breasted and had no ambition, and would fight with concubines all her life.

I have never seen such a woman.

"Master, regarding how to deal with Aunt Yao and the first wife, I have a little suggestion. How about I tell you?"

After Ye Qingzhi once again expressed her loyalty as a concubine to her leader, she felt that this was still not enough.

The leader must also see her multi-faceted abilities, such as the ability to hold a grudge, the ability to make trouble, the ability to come up with naughty ideas, the ability to influence others, etc.

These abilities are essential for a concubine, but the mistress doesn't want them.

Especially suitable for her!

"Go ahead." Xie Jin was a little curious and even a little expectant.

"If the Marquis doesn't want to break up with the First Wife, he has to suppress the matter of Concubine Qin. However, if he suppresses it, the First Wife won't be in panic.

They even became fearless in the future, thinking that no matter what they did, as long as it was for the sake of the Marquis's Mansion's face, the Marquis would not explode, and no matter how angry he was, he would choose to forgive them.

When I think about it, I feel aggrieved. I think the eldest wife got away with it. The eldest wife attacked me twice. I am petty and hold grudges. I can't just let it go like this!"

As Ye Qingzhi spoke, she clenched her fists fiercely and gritted her teeth, as if she was going to grab the mad dog and bite it a few times.

Xie Jin raised his eyebrows and asked her with interest, "So what do you want?"

"Of course I have to make them afraid and terrified, so that they will be terrified of me and won't dare to do evil again in the short term.

Sir, you know that after a cat catches a mouse, it won't eat it right away. It will hold the mouse under its claws and play with it in various ways. Then it will let go and catch the mouse again, playing with it to death.

We will act like cats and treat the eldest wife as mice, playing tricks on them, making them realize that the mansion is under my control, and completely defeating them psychologically."

"What you said is nonsense. Don't beat around the bush with me. Tell me how to do it."

Xie Jin glared at her and ignored her mysterious talk. It sounded quite right, but it was of no use at all.

I don't know where she learned the civil servants' rhetoric, it's just a bunch of nonsense, it sounds right but none of it is practical.

Seeing that she had failed to fool him, Ye Qingzhi could only continue,

"Master, listen to me and I will tell you a script. The background is as follows:

Aunt Yao is extremely infatuated with the Marquis and cannot bear to see other people being favored. The Marquis favors me and even throws me into the pond for me. Aunt Yao hates me even more and wants to kill me, but she has no manpower and cannot do it.

It just so happened that, because of the Autumn Examination, the first wife came to Aunt Yao for help regarding the issue of the dormitory. Aunt Yao took this opportunity to force the first wife to do things for her and let her get rid of the concubine.

I did not die. Instead, it was revealed that Aunt Yao had practiced witchcraft and cursed the Madam. Aunt Yao was demoted to a lowly concubine and lived a miserable life.

After suffering a series of setbacks, Aunt Yao turned her love for the Lord into hatred. Previously, she only wanted to kill the favored woman, but now she wants to take revenge on the Lord and the Marquisate! "

When Xie Jin heard this, he showed impatience. This woman's script was all about what happened.

Ye Qingzhi ignored Xie Jin's disgusted expression and continued to look mysterious, pacing with her hands behind her back and said,

"Yao Yiang began to constantly use the issue of the dormitory to threaten the eldest wife to work for her, persecuting the people in the mansion and causing unrest in the mansion.

The eldest wife didn't want to be threatened by her anymore, so she released a poisonous snake to kill her.

After Aunt Yao was rescued, she learned that it was the eldest wife who wanted to silence her. In a rage, she slandered Aunt Qin for having an affair with eldest master Xie Lin, and even said that the child in her belly was his!

She wanted to destroy the reputation of the master and the marquis, turn the backyard of the marquis's mansion into a filthy place, and make the marquis's mansion a laughing stock in the entire capital!

This is Aunt Yao's revenge! ! "

When Xie Jin heard this, he showed some interest and vaguely understood what she meant.

"When it comes to catching an adulterer, you have to catch him/her in person, but rumors are the most hurtful.

Aunt Yao threw such dirty water to prove her innocence, and Aunt Qin banged her head against the pillar to ask for death. Well, it was just a show. I curse and swear that it was absolutely not true.

This is not enough, and other evidence is needed to prove that Aunt Yao is throwing dirty water on the Marquis' Mansion.

In a word, they asked Aunt Yao to lift the veil, but said that this was Aunt Yao's slander and revenge.

Because of what Aunt Yao did, it is logically consistent and completely reasonable to say that she did this.

Afterwards, for the sake of Aunt Yao's father and sister, the Marquis still chose to spare Aunt Yao's life.

In this way, her father and sister will accept the master's kindness, but they will also have no place to vent their anger, because it was Aunt Yao who brought disaster to the Marquis' Mansion, and they still have to feel guilty towards the master. If they have resentment, they will also blame the eldest wife who killed Aunt Yao to silence her!

After all this commotion, the fact that the first wife bought a house would surely be exposed, which would somewhat tarnish the eldest son's chance of passing the imperial examination, damage his reputation, and hinder his career.

Also, this seemingly shameless affair would make the first wife feel frightened.

Add to that the resentment from Aunt Yao's father and sister, the first wife is definitely going to have a hard time.

Lord, what do you think of my script? Will it affect the reputation of the Marquisate?"

"It's much better than those filthy books you wrote," said Xie Jin.

Hearing this, he didn't give an accurate evaluation, and even took the opportunity to discredit her. Ye Qingzhi resisted the urge to roll her eyes and pushed him out the door.

"Master, please go quickly. Madam must be very anxious now, waiting for you to come forward and take charge of the situation."

Nor did she ask whether he would accept her advice.

"What about you?" Xie Jin asked.

"I'm going to sleep. I won't go out and cause trouble for Master and Madam." Ye Qingzhi blinked her eyes and spoke in a well-behaved and sensible manner.

Xie Jin, ...

It's not a surprising answer at all.

Forget it. I don’t want to test this woman anymore. It’s meaningless and I’ll end up slapping myself in the face.

-

On the other side, except for Xie Jin's yard which was still safe, everywhere else was in chaos with people and horses falling to the ground, and filled with the terrified screams of maids and old women.

After Zhang Jingyi was woken up, she immediately sent someone to take her sleeping daughter and son to her side to look after them.

Seeing that they were safe and sound, Zhang Jingyi finally had the mind to ask about the other people in the mansion.

"Where is the Marquis? Have you sent someone to inform him?" Zhang Jingyi asked Nanny Zhou anxiously.

There is no woman who is not afraid of poisonous snakes and insects, but as the mistress of the house, she cannot let herself show fear and cannot lose the dignity of a marquis's wife.

You can only hold on!

"The Marquis has already given the order, asking the guards in the palace to go into the backyard to capture those snakes and insects. Madam, please be patient and wait. They will be caught in a short while!" Nanny Zhou comforted her.

"Are Ming'an and the other children okay? Which concubines were injured?" Zhang Jingyi also asked about the situation of the illegitimate sons and daughters and concubines.

"The young masters are all fine. The news is that Aunt Yao was bitten by a poisonous snake. The venom has taken effect and her life is in danger. Aunt Qin was also attacked and the child is probably gone. The palace doctor went to Aunt Qin first."

Zhang Jingyi frowned when she heard this.

"We can't let Aunt Yao die. As for Aunt Qin...just do your best. Madam, send a few people to Aunt Yao to protect her life."

After receiving the order, Nanny Zhou turned around and was about to leave. Zhang Jingyi stopped her and asked, "By the way, where is Aunt Ye? Is she okay?"

"Madam Ye stayed in the master's yard tonight and escaped the disaster." Madam Zhou said in a low voice.

"...Okay." Zhang Jingyi pursed her lips, suppressed the jealousy in her heart, waved her hand and asked Madam Zhou to do her job.

Another quarter of an hour passed before Xie Jin came over.

"Are Yan'er and Yu Ge frightened?" As soon as Xie Jin arrived, he showed concern for his two children.

"No, I sent someone to pick them up when I heard about the incident." Zhang Jingyi felt relieved and asked, "Where is Aunt Ye? Didn't she come with Master?"

"She's asleep again, don't worry about her." Xie Jin said lightly.

Zhang Jingyi,...

At this moment, she couldn't help but envy Ye Qingzhi.

I guess at this moment, she is the only one who can still sleep in the whole backyard!

Pressing her brows, Zhang Jingyi asked again, "My Lord, was this incident today done by the eldest wife?"

Xie Jin nodded.

Zhang Jingyi asked again, "What is the Marquis going to do?"

"What do you think?" Xie Jin asked back.

He began to compare.
