Chapter 110 The Substitute Actress Counterattacks Bai Yueguang (15)
110 Typesetting
Lu Ya was stunned and asked hesitantly, "Miss, are you sure you want to give them away? These things are very valuable!"
Shi Qing nodded calmly, "It's too valuable. It doesn't seem like a thank you gift. The censor is not such a rude person. If he accepts this box of silver, I'm afraid it will bring endless trouble."
Lu Ya calmed down now. Money was important, but what the young lady said was right. Too many people in the Shen family were jealous of the young lady, and they were afraid that someone would secretly make trouble for her. It was really hard to guard against.
In this case, it is better to be careful.
At this moment, the system prompt sounded.
[Host, I've found out. This box of things was sent by Yun Wanrou. Although the Censor also sent things, it was a 1,000-tael silver note. Yun Wanrou took the silver note and exchanged it for these priceless jewelry, brocade, and other money.]
Shi Qing was lost in thought. Something had come to a complete halt, and she suddenly realized that this was the case...
"So, Yun Wanrou already knows who I am, right?"
Tuanzi nodded, speaking accurately without a doubt.
[The host guessed correctly. Following your suggestion, Aunt Qi has already found information related to you and confirmed your identity. Yun Wanrou is currently thinking of a countermeasure.]
Shi Qing sat down, feeling exceptionally calm. He was not worried that Yun Wanrou would not take action, but was afraid that she was too stupid to do nothing.
"Her father, Yun Zilong, is talented, but compared to my father, he is nothing. He simply stole the position of Right Prime Minister. He ascended to the position by stepping on the Shangshu Mansion, and now it's time to return it."
Speaking of the Yun family, it is actually a bit complicated. When the original owner's father was alive, he had an incompetent half-brother, Yun Zilong.
On weekdays, he only knows how to use the power in the mansion to show off his power and go to brothels. He is a typical playboy.
I don't know when he suddenly started to study hard, but he actually passed the imperial examination and became the third place in the imperial examination. As a result, he married the daughter of the Vice Minister of Justice.
At that time, his official position was very low, only the seventh-rank Tongpan. He was walking on thin ice in the court. His future in the officialdom was not good, and he was not as important as the original owner's father. In the court, there were always people who compared the two brothers of the Yun family.
It can be said that Yun Zilong has always lived under the shadow of his elder brother.
Until the fall of the Shangshu Mansion, Yun Zilong hooked up with the Fifth Prince's party. After several years, he finally sat on the throne of the Right Prime Minister and was able to enter and leave the cabinet freely.
Everyone inside and outside the court was shocked by this incident. However, in the original plot, the right prime minister was valued because he was the one who reported the Shangshu Mansion for colluding with the deposed prince, and he also wrote the letter of complaint.
Shi Qing ordered the people at the gatehouse to deliver the whole box of things to the old lady's courtyard, and then asked Lu Ya to pick up the flower basket and walk towards the peach tree outside.
She picked up a lot of peach blossoms, washed them, made peach blossom wine and sealed it, thinking that she would send it to Dou Yao after the peach blossom wine was ready, as a way of repaying the favor.
After all, it was Dou Yao who instigated Lord Zhang to go to Jingzhao Prefecture this time, so Shi Qing also gained a lot, which was quite a rewarding one.
Shi Qing touched her lower abdomen, feeling a little hungry. She looked up and said to Lu Ya.
"Prepare some cakes and snacks. I've exerted a lot of energy today, so I need to replenish my energy."
Lu Ya is diligent in her work. Seeing that Shi Qing likes snacks, she hurried to prepare them.
"Okay, I'll go to the kitchen and prepare it."
However, before Lu Ya left Guanlan Garden, the ferocious voice of a woman was heard outside the courtyard, and footsteps were heard coming from far away, indicating that someone was coming in a grand manner.
Yun Wanrou entered the courtyard with her men and brought a few guards with her. It looked like a big event. Shi Qing stole some force buffs from Tuanzi and waited quietly for Yun Wanrou to appear.
The door was kicked open, and Nanny Qi stepped into the room fiercely, trying to drag Shi Qing out. Lu Ya pushed Nanny Qi and said unhappily.
"Let go of my aunt, what are you going to do?"
Aunt Qi was pushed away by Lu Ya. Lu Ya protected Shi Qing and didn't let anyone get close to her, like a hen protecting her calves.
Shi Qing felt secretly relieved in her heart. After all, it was the girl she chose herself, and she was indeed considerate and sensible.
Yun Wanrou stepped into the courtyard. She was wearing precious brocade and a priceless hair crown on her head. She looked pretty and charming.
She glanced casually at Guanlan Garden. The courtyard was small and looked cozy, but it made her feel even more displeased.
Especially when she found out that this concubine Yun was actually her once pampered cousin Yun Qing, she wanted to torture her even more.
She always thought that when her uncle's affair was exposed, Yun Qing would be tortured to death, but who knew that she was still living a miserable life.
Now, she is Yun Qing's mistress, and Yun Wanrou has no intention of letting her go. She must at least destroy this eye-catching appearance.
"You are really a lowly concubine, you don't know any rules. Why don't you kneel down when the mistress comes?"
Shi Qing bowed calmly and said, "Greetings, Madam. What may I wish for you?"
Yun Wanrou wiped the stone bench with her handkerchief and said nonchalantly.
"Just now, Zhu Cui Pavilion sent someone to deliver a box of jewelry. I heard that you stole it? Don't you have any sense of propriety? How dare you take my things? You know how priceless they are."
Shi Qing shook her head. "I just came back and didn't see any jewelry. Could it be that Madam has found the wrong one?"
Yun Wanrou naturally would not make a trip in vain. She sent her confidant to deliver the things here. Regardless of whether Shi Qing had witnesses or not, she had to swallow the bitter pill honestly.
She lifted Shi Qing's chin, her eyes suddenly became cold, and she spoke with gritted teeth.
"She really doesn't know any rules at all, Madam Qi, slap her in the face until she tells the truth!"
Aunt Qi nodded, rubbed her hands, and looked at Shi Qing gloomily. He dared to compete for favor with her wife. He didn't know his place!
However, before her palm strike landed, Shi Qing held her hand tightly, wishing he could break it.
Aunt Qi screamed like a pig in pain, grimacing.
Shi Qing threw Madam Qi to the ground and said coldly.
"Madam's rules must be followed for a reason! Although I am your concubine, I am not a servant who can be beaten or scolded at will. I will not admit that I didn't steal anything!"
Yun Wanrou was holding her breath. She stood up, pulled out the golden hairpin in her hand, and unexpectedly slashed it towards Shi Qing's face. She wanted to ruin Shi Qing's appearance.
Shi Qing did not dodge, and the golden hairpin scratched his cheek, and blood immediately flowed down.
Lu Ya was panicking and wanted to run over to save Shi Qing, but was stopped by Yun Wanrou's men. Lu Ya was about to cry.
"Let my lady go! She has done nothing wrong!"
Yun Wanrou's eyes were stern. "I'll only give you one chance. Hand over the jewelry and I'll spare your life. Even though you came from a brothel, you shouldn't be so blind. Coveting my wife's headgear will land you in trouble!"
There was fear in Shi Qing's eyes and tears fell. He knelt down and looked at Yun Wanrou, speaking softly and pitifully.
"Madam, I didn't steal your jewelry, why did you ruin my appearance? Are you trying to kill me?"
As he spoke, Shi Qing cried bitterly and rushed towards a pillar not far away. A dark figure appeared and hugged Shi Qing in his arms.
"Qingqing, is there anything wrong?"
Shi Qing hugged the man's waist tightly, crying uncontrollably, muttering to herself.
"Qingqing didn't steal anything, I didn't..."
Yun Wanrou stared blankly at Shen Zhongli who suddenly appeared, and felt a little panicked. Wasn't he in Jingzhao Prefecture at this hour? Why did he come back early? How could she teach Yun Qing a lesson?
Shen Zhongli looked at Yun Wanrou coldly and ordered in public, "Madam, you are so arrogant that you actually used such a large force to bully me. Madam, please give me an explanation for what happened today."
Yun Wanrou subconsciously argued, "My husband, Aunt Yun doesn't distinguish between high and low. She stole my precious jewelry. Shouldn't she be punished at all? In your heart, is she more important than me?"
Shen Zhongli didn't answer and left with Shi Qing in his arms.
The injuries on her face were very serious and she had to apply medicine immediately. If scars were left, it would look ugly and she would no longer look like Mianmian.
Naturally, he cared more about Shi Qing's appearance than anyone else. As for the grievances Shi Qing suffered, what did it have to do with him?
Shen Zhongli glanced at Yun Wanrou coldly and said in a stiff tone.
"I will investigate this matter, so you don't need to worry about it. However, there are some things that you can't easily hide from my eyes."
Having said that, he pushed Yun Wanrou away mercilessly and left without even looking at her.
Yun Wanrou was so embarrassed that her eyes turned red. The maids around her were trembling with fear, worried that they would make their master angry, so they kept their mouths shut and dared not say a word.
In a rage, she ordered people to smash Guanlan Garden, and then left in a huff. However, Yun Wanrou didn't know that Shi Qing was still the most important substitute in Shen Zhongli's eyes.
Shi Qing was brought to Shen Zhongli's courtyard. Langzhong from the mansion quickly came over to apply medicine to Shi Qing. He repeatedly reminded Shen Zhongli to pay attention to his diet and not to eat raw or cold food. Shen Zhongli wrote down every word.
Half an hour later, Shi Qing woke up slowly. The pain on her face made her frown.
"Why didn't you tell me when you were wronged? Qingqing, does it still hurt?"
Shi Qing secretly rolled her eyes. Isn't this nonsense? The wound was not shallow, it must be painful, but she never did business at a loss.
Naturally, some interest can also be collected from Yun Wanrou.
"I don't know what the Madam misunderstood. As soon as I returned home, she brought people to attack my Guanlan Garden. Mr. Shen, I feel very sad."
Shi Qing wiped her tears on Shen Zhongli's body, thinking about her future plans in her mind, and her strictness suddenly became bright and confident.
"I'll make the decision for you. Qingqing, you should recover first. I'll help you find out about Wanrou."
Shi Qing nodded, agreeing to this matter, and obediently drank the medicine and lay down.
Tuanzi began to complain helplessly in his sea of consciousness.
[Why doesn't the host use props? The wound on his face is not clear. ]
Shi Qing said calmly, "Of course it can be used, but Tuanzi, isn't this acting? Tsk, be careful next time!"
Tuanzi thought secretly, fortunately the space has stored some ointment, and he can secretly give it to the host when the time comes.
After Shi Qing fell asleep, Shen Zhongli finally had time to start investigating the matter. In less than half a cup of tea, the servant Awen had found out the whole cause and effect of the matter.
The old lady also knew about the movement in Guanlan Garden. Remembering the black box that the gatekeeper had sent before, she quickly sent someone to deliver the box to Shen Zhongli.
It’s not that the old lady is reluctant to do so, but the unrest in the family is really annoying. What’s more, her son likes that concubine so much, so she can’t give Shen Zhongli too much face.
The old lady's intervention finally eased the situation. Although Shen Zhongli did not punish Yun Wanrou, he became increasingly cold towards her and almost never set foot in her old residence.
Yun Wanrou had overstepped her bounds and was already unhappy, and Shen Zhongli's indifference made her even more miserable.
In the end, she underestimated Yun Qing's importance in the master's heart, which led to her being neglected. She was angry and annoyed, and secretly began to envy Shi Qing.
*
Shi Qing didn't have any other thoughts about this. She lived a life of good food and drink in Shen Zhongli's courtyard, and her life could be said to be very comfortable.
After the injuries on her face healed, she returned to her own courtyard.
In order to compensate her, Shen Zhongli asked his servants to rebuild her Guanlan Garden, making it spacious and grand so that she could live very comfortably.
Shi Qing's heroic deeds in Jingzhao Prefecture are also well known to many people.
The prefect of Jingzhao was even convicted and imprisoned by Emperor Wenchang, to be executed at a later date. The news that Wang Yishan had paid to save his life and was planning to plot against Zhang spread throughout the city.
While the capital was bustling with activity, many people began to gossip.
Thanks to the gossip spread by the Censor and Zhang, everyone knew that the concubine of the Shen family was extremely intelligent and proficient in the art of yin and yang.
Shi Qing's business of catching ghosts and fortune-telling is getting better and better, even better than before.
Shi Qing even inadvertently helped many dignitaries solve their problems. In just one month, her wallet had become fatter.
She saved most of the money she earned in a bank and bought jewelry with the rest.
And Shen Zhongli, inexplicably, had a smoother path in the court because of Shi Qing's connections, which also made Shen Zhongli's heart more inclined towards Shi Qing.
He never knew that Shi Qing, who came out of the brothel, actually knew the art of Yin and Yang, and was so good at catching ghosts that he not only impressed all the families in the capital, but also provided him with many prospects for the future.
He began to come to Guanlan Garden repeatedly to pamper Shi Qing. Fortunately, Shi Qing's doll was of good quality and could withstand Shen Zhongli's desire.
So, he began to consider promoting Shi Qing to be his co-wife after she became pregnant. In this way, it would be reasonable for him to make use of Shi Qing's connections.
It was also this opportunity that allowed Shi Qing to increase most of his favorability. In just two months, Shen Zhongli's favorability had reached 80%.
I don’t know whether it was because of the interests or because he felt he was useful, but in any case, Shi Qing gained a lot.
On this day, the sun was shining and the weather was fine, and Zhang came to visit the Dali Temple.
After Zhang successfully divorced, she left Jingzhao Prefecture and returned to the Censorate to be Miss Zhang. She lived a leisurely life. She liked Shi Qing very much, so she came to visit Shi Qing whenever she had free time.
Either she would bring rare treasures or silks and satins to Shi Qing. In short, the relationship between the two was very good, which was seen as jealousy in the eyes of others.
Although Yun Wanrou is the daughter of the right prime minister, she is petty-minded. The noble ladies in the capital are unwilling to associate with her, especially Zhang Pingjun, who dislikes Yun Wanrou's affectation the most.
Even though Yun Wanrou wanted to take the opportunity to make friends with her, she was ignored by Zhang Pingjun.
