Yuan Wei's Quick Travel

Yuan Wei didn't know what happened in the box afterwards because she was sent back home by someone who had abandoned her.

However, from the smile on Yuan Guangyi's face when he saw him again, it can be seen that his meeting with the emperor this time went well.

However, Yuan Guangheng was frightened by the emperor. For no reason, he was scolded by the emperor, who sent someone to say that he was not fulfilling his filial duty.

Yuan Guangheng felt very guilty.

He really couldn't figure out what went wrong that made the emperor so dissatisfied with him.

Has Chu Wanyi's pregnancy been discovered?

Or was his contact with his father's old acquaintance discovered?

As God knows, he has never had any dishonest intentions.

He knew that his talent was not as good as his second brother's, but that was because he knew that he could have a future without taking the imperial examination.

Of course, there is no need to force myself to study, but now my father has passed away and he is no longer a familiar figure to me.

If I don't make plans early, will I become an idle marquis with no real power after I finish my mourning?

This is not what Yuan Guangheng wants to see.

It was only after the family split up that he learned that his father had already used his connections to arrange the future for his second and third brothers.

They all entered official careers through the imperial examinations, and with the protection of their fathers, their official careers had been smooth sailing for many years.

There is no need to worry after the mourning period is over, because father has already arranged everything for them.

Maybe by then you can even reach a higher level.

But what about him?

His father claimed that he wanted to train him, so he sent him to the government camp and never cared about him again.

Over the years, he has relied on his own strength to climb up.

After finally achieving some success, it happened to be the time for mourning.

All the power gained was handed back.

Although the status of the Marquis' Mansion is still noble, its actual power has been greatly reduced.

Yuan Guangheng was unwilling to accept such a fate, he had to find a new way out.

But now, for some unknown reason, His Majesty has reprimanded him.

This unknown situation made Yuan Guangheng calm down. He stayed in the mansion obediently and didn't dare to go out easily.

That day, Yuan Wei was bored and lying on the table fiddling with a pen when she suddenly heard crying sounds coming from outside.

Yuan Wei immediately sat up straight and looked out curiously.

It’s exciting!

Yuan Guangheng felt helpless when he saw this. After all, she was a girl, so gossip was inevitable.

It would be difficult for her to be confined to study while her second sister was having fun in the backyard.

Thinking of this, Yuan Guangheng waved his hand and said, "Go and see if you want to."

Hearing this, Yuan Wei immediately dropped her pen and ran out.

When I went out, I saw Yuan Guangheng's six concubines kneeling at the door of the study, each holding a child.

Wow, is it so exciting?

Yuan Wei stepped aside, revealing Yuan Guangheng following behind her.

Yuan Guangheng looked at the scene in front of him, frowning, and asked with displeasure: "What are you all kneeling here for? And take the child out!"

Aunt Li, who had been with Yuan Guangheng the longest, had her eyes light up when she saw him and was the first to shout, "My Lord, please make the decision!"

"My Lord, please make the decision!"

"Master Hou..."

When the other concubines heard this, they all echoed the shouting.

For a moment, the whole scene became chaotic.

Yuan Guangheng was so annoyed by the noise that he shouted, "Enough! What are you arguing about?"

His shout successfully stopped the aunts from shouting, but the children cried even louder because they were frightened.

Yuan Wei was watching the show with shining eyes at this time, and she was eating melon seeds without stopping.

She secretly cheered in her heart: "You deserve it! You're allowed to have so many children."

Yuan Wei has completely forgotten that it was because of her medicine that Yuan Guangheng had so many daughters.

If she thought about it, she would also say that if Yuan Guangheng had not taken so many concubines, how could he have so many children?

So, how can she be blamed for all this?

After all, Aunt Li has been with Yuan Guangheng the longest and knows him best.

She knew that Yuan Guangheng was getting impatient, so she didn't dare to make trouble anymore and told him what happened while crying.

It turned out that ever since Chu Wanyi started recuperating from her postpartum confinement, Yuan Lan had been in charge of the household.

Other aspects are still acceptable. After all, with people like Madam Shi keeping an eye on things, there won't be any major problems.

However, when it comes to treating his aunt and half-sister, Yuan Lan does not hide his disgust.

Not only did she stop paying monthly allowances to her concubines, but even her concubine's monthly allowance was cut in half.

In addition to the monthly allowance, other allowances are often missing.

If it were just me, these concubines might have just put up with it.

But now they all have children. Although she is a girl, she is also the master of the mansion.

How can I live worse than the maidservants around my master?

They really couldn't swallow this.

Besides, the children are still young and will not pose any threat to the second girl, but the second girl is so heartless.

Then when my daughter grows up, won’t she be hunted down and killed by the second girl?

What should I do then?

If they don't make a big deal about this matter, their children will have no place to stand in the mansion and will be bullied by others.

This time, it was because Aunt Li's daughter was sick and needed a doctor, but the people in the main courtyard were making excuses.

After going through a lot of hardships and difficulties, I finally saw a doctor, but encountered obstacles again when getting medicine, and finally only got two days' worth of medicine.

Seeing that her daughter's illness had not yet been cured and the medicine had run out, Aunt Li had no choice but to buy medicine out of her own pocket.

Fortunately, her daughter gradually recovered.

But I also started to lose my appetite.

Aunt Li hoped that the kitchen would send some fresh food, but was met with merciless ridicule.

She had no choice but to pay the kitchen again to get the food she needed.

After doing this over and over again, she almost ran out of money.

It was at this time that the second young lady stopped supplying monthly wages to her concubine's younger sister, and the concubine's share was also reduced by half.

Having no money made Aunt Li completely panic.

What should I do if I encounter such a thing again in the future?

The other concubines also felt sorry for the other party and thought about themselves. For their own interests, they decided to join in the trouble.

Yuan Guangheng listened quietly to Aunt Li's crying, his face becoming more and more gloomy.

He suppressed his anger and ordered Chang'an, "Go and call that evil girl."

After saying this, he turned to look at the concubines who were still kneeling on the ground and said in a cold tone, "You should get up first. Let the wet nurse take the child back first."

Aunt Li knew clearly that the Marquis was dissatisfied with them for having made things so serious.

She lowered her head and smiled bitterly.

If the matter was not made a big deal, the Marquis might have just lightly reprimanded the second girl.

How can it work?

If the second girl does not receive any substantial warnings and punishments, she will become fearless and will definitely retaliate more severely in the future.

Yuan Wei couldn't help feeling a little bored when she saw Yuan Guangheng quickly take control of the situation.

Her eyes turned, and when she thought about the scene that Yuan Lan would soon face, her mood instantly became cheerful again.
