When Ge Fu came out of the bathroom, her face was pale and her lips were congested due to excessive friction. She also changed into a set of home clothes.
"Princess!" You Niang was so distressed that she almost cried.
Ge Fu said coldly, "Send the order to have the servants of Beiyuan withdraw, lock the main gate of Beiyuan's inner courtyard, and block all the moon-shaped gates leading to Nanyuan. From now on, just pretend that there is no Beiyuan in the mansion."
Hearing this, You Rong and Tan Xizhuang looked at each other in shock.
Our princess is really something. If she doesn’t take action, it’s fine. But when she does, it’s amazing.
After being startled, they came to their senses, responded loudly, and then Zhuang Jingjing ran out excitedly to convey the order.
Upon hearing the news, Yao Niang was overjoyed, "Is this true? Don't be making fun of me." Everyone knew that she despised those ministers who ate and drank for free in the mansion.
That was the case. The government had to pay for the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the assistant ministers. They had to buy organic meat and vegetables, and only eat premium fruits. They also had to take supplements from time to time, such as bird's nests and seal oil. Not to mention the clothes. They even despised luxury goods worth four figures. They also had to be provided with chauffeured cars when traveling. Although he was not the legal husband, his monthly salary was 10,000 yuan. If he was over 30, that was still over 300,000 yuan.
All the expenses in a year total more than 50 million.
It would be great to use this much money to provide pensions and comfort items to the families of the martyrs who were once part of the Ge family.
But the aristocratic circle has its own rules. The treatment of the ministers and the different grades of mansions have different standards. She is not reluctant to be the bad guy, but she is afraid that the reputation of her own princess will be affected.
"Really." Zhuang Jingjing excitedly recounted what had just happened, "As soon as His Majesty left, the princess issued this order."
As she listened, the smile on Yao Niang's face disappeared.
How can Your Majesty...
"Is the princess not upset?" she asked worriedly.
Hearing this, Zhuang Jingjing's expression turned unhappy.
"The princess must have been molested by that Minister Yun. Her lips became swollen from washing them, and she even dry-heaved for a long time." She said with a frown.
In the bedroom, Ge Fu sat listlessly on the sofa chair by the window. Without her instructions, You Rong and Tan Xi changed the beds and cleaned up the debris on the floor.
You Niang handed a cup of tea to Ge Fu and said softly, "My lord, didn't you say that the previous Keemun black tea didn't taste right? This is newly sent from the tea garden. Please try it."
Although Hengyang State still maintained many ancient titles and the existence of the emperor, it had largely left the feudal society, and the localities were not obliged to send tribute to the capital. However, the lives of the upper class nobles were not greatly affected, after all, transportation was convenient, and each government had manors and lands throughout the country.
——In Hengyang State, only royal relatives and nobles can own private property.
Ge Fu has always loved black tea, and has a special liking for Keemun black tea. Unfortunately... unfortunately, the most authentic Keemun black tea here is located in Jinglong. The Keemun black tea grown in the Ge family's tea garden is never so tasty, so she has always been drinking it to make do with it.
You Niang had to give face, so Ge Fu took a sip and said nothing good or bad. He just lowered his eyes and said calmly, "Serve the food."
"Hey!" You Niang responded with a smile.
Ge Fu returned to the mansion after ten days. The cooks in the mansion used all their skills. Although the number of dishes was the same as before, they were all Kung Fu dishes.
Unfortunately, she gave the blind man a look and Ge Fu only ate half a bowl of rice and drank a few sips of pigeon soup before putting down her chopsticks.
Knowing that she was unhappy, You Niang did not dare to persuade her, and there were more important things to do.
"Princess, please check if the wound has broken open." There was such a big noise just now...
Ge Fu was startled and shook her head: "It should be fine, I don't feel any pain."
Even so, I still watched it because of You Niang's insistence.
"You said you were fine, but the wound has clearly burst open!" You Niang got anxious as soon as she saw it, "Princess, you must have been so angry that you didn't even notice the pain."
She immediately called her family doctor.
It took more than half an hour before Ge Fu's wound was treated again.
Yao Niang was very efficient. After isolating the North Garden and the South Garden, she came running back to report.
Ge Fu didn't think that she couldn't do this well, but what surprised her was that Yao Niang didn't say anything good about Xiao Yuan.
——She has always been like this. Even when she changed her major, she took the opportunity to say good things about Xiao Yuan. But later, when she saw that he turned cold whenever she mentioned it, she didn't dare to say much.
When Yao Niang left, she pulled You Niang out. Ge Fu didn't care. They had been sisters for many years, and it was normal for them to talk to each other in private.
"If you have something to say, say it quickly. I'm not sure if the princess is like that." When they reached the gate of the courtyard, You Niang was the first to urge.
Yao Niang looked around and when she saw that no one was around, she leaned over to You Niang's ear and whispered, "Beiyuan has been conferred a title by the princess, and she has never liked those ministers. What do you think, should we find a lover for the princess who suits her heart?"
"Are you crazy?" You Niang was horrified, and suppressed her anger and said, "Don't mention how high our princess's standards are. Even if she really likes you, what if they have a child? Are you really happy for the princess's daughter to be taken away by His Majesty?"
The emperor's intention was obvious. He wanted his princess to give birth to a daughter of noble descent to be adopted by the eldest prince. In this way, although the eldest prince could not become emperor, he could become a consort.
She would not allow her princess to make wedding clothes for others.
It is easy to imagine that once the child is adopted, the princess would become a thorn in the emperor's side, and if things go wrong she might even lose her life.
"Don't worry, I didn't grow up in the palace for nothing. I have a contraceptive method that won't harm your body." Yao Niang narrowed her eyes and said, "The most important thing is that our princess is happy."
Unlike the simple-minded You Niang, she felt that His Majesty's thoughts were not necessarily a bad thing.
However, even if this child is to be born, it cannot be born now, but must be born after the princess is appointed as the crown prince.
Most of the Xiao royal family died in the civil strife in the early years, and Your Majesty only had one son, the eldest prince. In the past, it was not that there had not been princes' daughters who inherited the throne, as long as the future princess took her grandfather's surname, Xiao.
Your Majesty was able to succeed to the throne and sit firmly on the throne because my own prince and the duke both lost their lives for it. So why can't my own princess sit on the throne?
Therefore, it is not a big deal that the princess cannot go to the First University of Political Science and Law.
The emperor of Hengyang Kingdom does not have to be a graduate of the First University of Political Science and Law.
You Niang was a little worried about how to persuade her to change her mind, but she couldn't think of a solution. Instead, she thought of the matter in Beiyuan.
"Does the government really not care about those ministers in Beiyuan? Will the families behind them cause trouble for the princess?"
Looking for trouble?
Inside and outside the courtyard, Yao Niang and Ge Fu sneered almost at the same time.
Although the noble families in the court and the country were intimidated by the emperor and did not dare to get close to Princess Hengyang's Mansion, they did not dare to offend her easily.
After all, who knows what the future holds...
Besides, isn't there a ready-made target for venting anger?
