The regent is determined to get the daughter of a minor official.
Chapter 142 Compensation for the Innocent
"Doctor Zhang, if you hadn't rushed back today to check the princess's pulse, we wouldn't have known she was pregnant.
You have made great contributions, and our entire family is extremely grateful to you. This is a reward from the princess.
Please take good care of the princess during her pregnancy."
Nanny Wang handed over a heavy purse.
Doctor Zhang took it and thanked him repeatedly.
"Thank you, Princess, and thank you, Madam Wang."
He still didn't say anything extra, which showed that Doctor Zhang was definitely someone who could keep secrets.
Nanny Wang then gave rewards to Manager Yao and Dingxiang.
Everyone was delighted after receiving the reward, and their friendship among colleagues was further strengthened.
Manager Yao put the heavy silver in his pocket and felt full of energy as if he had been injected with chicken blood.
"Madam Wang, I will arrange for more personnel to strengthen the guard of the princess's courtyard. We cannot allow any mistakes to occur."
Nanny Wang nodded and looked at him with great trust.
"Well, Manager Yao, I'm confident in your handling of the matter. I'll have the kitchen prepare a delicious meal for the princess."
......
In the wing room.
Dingdang came over, looking excited.
"Miss, Dingdang will serve you more carefully in the future and will not let you get frightened in the slightest."
Anxiang smiled and nodded.
"Yes, Miss, we must protect the young master well."
Xu Ke said angrily.
"We don't even know if it's a boy or a girl yet. Don't be too nervous, you two. You're making me nervous too!"
The parrot, who had been eavesdropping for a while, suddenly spoke.
"Small persimmon, small persimmon, small..."
The mimetic sounds stopped abruptly.
Anxiang walked over and stared at it with a bad look.
"Miss, will it reveal the secret? Or should I kill it?"
Parrot......
Dingdang came over and opened the Anxiang.
"Anxiang, don't hit it. Have you forgotten that the young lady can't stand blood?"
Anxiang: "I can take it out."
Xu Keke stroked his belly and laughed so hard that he fell over.
"Okay, Anxiang, the prince found this parrot, and now it's gone, and we can't explain to him.
Besides, since I am pregnant with the prince's child, I cannot kill any living being. I must accumulate merit for the child in my belly."
After hearing what Xu Keke said, Anxiang nodded.
"Young lady is really thoughtful. We must accumulate blessings for the young master."
The parrot in the cage seemed to understand that it had escaped danger. It flapped its wings a few times and then calmed down.
At this time, Nanny Wang came in with her maid, carrying the meal carefully prepared from the dining room.
"Princess, these are all made according to the old servant's instructions. They are all nutritious and light dishes. Please try them."
Xu Keke looked at the table full of food, but had no appetite.
Dingdang advised from the side.
"Miss, please eat a little. It's not only for yourself, but also for the little baby in your belly."
Xu Keke picked up the chopsticks reluctantly, ate a few bites with all her might, and then went back to her room to get some beauty and pregnancy sleep.
......
After finishing their business, Sheng Er and his companions returned to the palace and told Chief Steward Yao about the mad bull they encountered today.
It turned out that the cow was bought by a farmer at the mule and horse market for more than twenty taels of silver.
Maybe the cow was just bought and was not familiar with its new owner. The farmer whipped the cow a few times, and the cow looked at him with its eyes sideways.
The farmer didn't take it seriously and continued to lead the cow home, but he got halfway.
The bull suddenly went mad, broke free from the reins and started running around recklessly.
Sheng Er said with a lingering fear on his face.
"It's a good thing we reacted quickly, otherwise if that mad bull had hit the princess, we would have been killed."
Manager Yao was even more frightened than he was.
He pulled Sheng Er aside and spoke in a low voice into his ear.
"The princess is pregnant. If we were really hit by that bull, we would all have to go to see the prince with our heads on our shoulders."
Sheng Er was a little confused, not knowing whether to be happy that the princess was pregnant or to worry about his own head first...
He stood up suddenly.
"I will take my men with me to punish myself with thirty lashes of the cane."
Manager Yao stopped him.
"What are you doing? The princess didn't blame you. Not only did she not blame you, she even gave each of you a reward of twenty taels of silver."
As he said this, he handed him a heavy cloth bag.
"Go, give money to your subordinates and then come back to talk."
Sheng Er was very moved.
The princess is so domineering!
She is worthy of being the young lady in my memory who is willing to spend money to avoid disaster.
Sheng Er handed the cloth bag to one of his subordinates and asked him to help distribute it, and soon walked to the side of General Manager Yao.
Manager Yao sat down to analyze the situation.
"This is very strange. How can a newly bought cow go crazy like this?"
Sheng Er: "Could it be that there's something wrong with the cow itself, and the seller deliberately cheated the farmer?"
Manager Yao glared at him.
"Don't talk nonsense, there is no evidence."
Sheng Er continued.
"The cow was killed by our people, and the farmer wanted us to compensate him for the cow.
Upon investigation, it turned out that the damage caused by the bull's reckless behavior was more than the money the bull had earned.
That guy wanted to run away, but how could he be allowed to escape? He was the most important witness.
We captured the man and sent him directly to the Ministry of Justice for investigation.
After all, we have to come back and be responsible for protecting the princess's safety. This is the order given by the prince before he left."
Manager Yao patted him on the shoulder.
"You handled it fairly well. This incident might just be an accident. But is anyone compensating for the damage caused by the mad cow?"
Sheng Er scratched his head and looked outside the mansion gate.
"I was just about to tell Chief Steward Yao about this! The victims are all waiting outside the mansion. The princess said she would compensate them.
Now that everyone is here, should we go ask the princess?"
Manager Yao stood up angrily.
"You idiot! I was just praising you, why didn't you tell me earlier? Hurry up and take Director Qian out to get rid of them.
Take the money and let them go quickly. What's the point of standing outside the palace? "
Having said that, without waiting for Sheng Er to drag his feet, he went straight to the accounting office to find the money manager.
Manager Yao is efficient and decisive in his work.
In less than a cup of tea, all the innocent people who came to ask for compensation were sent away.
The merchants who received the silver expressed their gratitude to Princess Sheng profusely.
The news quickly spread throughout the streets and alleys, and everyone praised Princess Sheng for her kindness.
When Xu Keke woke up, she learned that the second lady had received the news and came to the palace to see her.
Let Dingdang help her change into a soft royal blue dress.
She did not wear those heavy hairpins on her head, but only a jade hairpin.
Came lightly to the main hall of Jinyun Hall.
"Mother, why are you here today?"
As soon as Xu Keke came in, he saw the Second Madam and Nanny Ding who had been waiting for a long time. Both of them looked worried.
The second lady stood up and took Xu Ke's hand, looking him up and down.
"I heard that you were attacked by a mad bull on the street today, and the palace guards killed the bull on the spot.
Mother knows that you, my dear daughter, have always been afraid of blood and gore. I guess you must have suffered a lot this time, right? "
