Transmigration: Reverse Exploitation, the System Works for Me

Chapter 303 News

It would be wonderful if we didn't have to sleep in the dormitory. The eight maids happily split into two groups and went back to their quarters to move their luggage.

The round-faced maid and the skillful maid exchanged a glance as they walked out of the main courtyard, sharing a knowing look.

Inside the Prince's residence, Xi Qiao also received sixty palace maids and eunuchs sent by the Imperial Household Department, and Yu Ya was among them.

Of this group, twenty were to fill vacancies in the Prince's Mansion, and forty were for Princess Shou'an, Moyaqi.

When she was sent to the Prince's Mansion, she was only accompanied by her wet nurse and nanny. She didn't bring any of the servants who took care of her clothes and bedding, the laundry servants who were in charge of washing, or the lighting servants who were in charge of lighting!

It wouldn't matter if these people left the Prince's residence, but just in case, Xi Qiao still had the Imperial Household Department select and send them over.

Xi Qiao beckoned to Yu Ya and called her over. This was their second meeting, but Xi Qiao quite liked this bright and intelligent young girl.

"Mo Yaqi is in dire need of a skilled accountant. Everything in her room, regardless of its value, must be accounted for clearly and traceably, down to the origin and destination of every single item. Can you do that?"

Although Yu Ya was only thirteen years old, and doing this was suspected of exploiting child labor, this was the Qing Dynasty!

She's already old enough to get married at thirteen!

Yu Ya hesitated for a moment and then said, "Your Highness, I can do it, but I need help."

Xi Qiao pointed to the fifty-nine palace maids and eunuchs standing below the hall, as well as Xiao Linzi and An Lu beside her, "These people, including the people serving Mo Yaqi, are at your disposal. I want to see the original account books in two days."

Yu Ya's face was serious: "Yes, this servant will certainly not fail the trust of the Fujin."

“Anlu, take Aya to meet the people around Moyaqi, and tell them what I mean.”

Yu Ya quickly got the hang of it. In less than two days, she had registered all of Mo Yaqi's belongings and assigned different palace maids to supervise them.

Her skillful maneuver allowed her to quickly establish herself by Mo Yaqi's side. Furthermore, Xi Qiao did not deliberately hide her relationship with Yu Zhui, and even entrusted her with the task of supervising Yu Zhui's reading and writing, which further elevated Yu Ya's status in the mansion.

When Yu Ya was thriving, Xi Qiao also felt relaxed. She didn't have to worry about the affairs of the manor, so she could focus more on cultivating her spiritual power and swordsmanship, as well as studying medicine.

This is her livelihood!

While the Mu Prince's Mansion was enjoying a peaceful and tranquil time, the Guo Prince's Mansion, located just across the street, was in complete chaos.

The reason for this has to do with the attack on Prince Guo at Ganlu Temple before the new year.

Because of that audacious robber, Prince Guo, who had been stripped naked and thrown into the bushes, injured his genitals.

After being treated by the royal physician, the wound had healed considerably. However, Prince Guo never experienced any of the physiological phenomena that followed, nor did he grow a beard again.

This matter was originally meant to be kept secret, but the physicians in the palace had limited skills. When Prince Guo saw that his condition was not improving for a long time, he was filled with fear and worry, so he had no choice but to send someone to fetch the imperial physician.

When the imperial physician entered the mansion, Meng Jingxian, the primary consort, naturally received the news. Out of consideration for the propriety between husband and wife, she had to go despite being heavily pregnant.

But before she went, she suddenly had a bright idea and asked someone to call the royal physician to ask him.

When the physician heard that the imperial physician had been summoned, and considering that although Prince Guo was the most powerful person in the household, it was Meng Jingxian, the primary consort, who was in charge, he gritted his teeth and told the whole story.

Finally, he emphasized: "It's not that I'm a bad doctor, but that Your Highness's genitals were punctured and completely frostbitten, and there's no cure."

"In the future, let alone having children, even having sex will be difficult. I was worried that if Your Highness knew the truth, it would be detrimental to your recovery, so I kept quiet about it."

Of course, what I fear even more is being murdered to silence me.

However, the physician glanced at Meng Jingxian's belly and said that although Prince Guo could no longer have children, the baby in his wife's belly was a boy, so it was not considered that the lineage would end.

Meng Jingxian's eyes lit up upon hearing this, but then her brows furrowed tightly again.

The fact that Prince Guo is infertile must be made public!

Although this matter was particularly damaging to Prince Guo's reputation, if outsiders did not know the reason, and saw that only she, the primary wife, had a child in their household, who knows what they would say about her and the Meng family!

Look at Prince Lian's residence; he clearly has concubines and illegitimate children, though few in number. Perhaps Prince Lian himself has problems, hindering his ability to have offspring.

However, the prevailing rumor was that Prince Lian's wife was jealous and domineering, leaving Prince Lian with few children and even damaging the reputation of the women of the Guo Luo Luo clan, who were always picked apart and rejected when it came to marriage proposals.

This is a living example!

The situation of Prince Guo is much more serious than that of Prince Lian. If they don't make a scene now, the women of the Meng family will definitely be in a worse situation than the women of the Guo Luo clan in the future.

What is the face of Prince Guo compared to the reputation of the Meng family women?

However, this matter must not be leaked out of her circle.

Meng Jingxian's eyes flashed, and she turned to her confidante and said, "Send word that I heard the prince had summoned the imperial physician, and I panicked and had a miscarriage."

After saying that, she looked at the physician in front of her and said, "Doctor Zhao, I would like to trouble you to prescribe some medicine for my symptoms."

Doctor Zhao naturally understood what she meant and immediately went back to get the medicine for her.

After everyone left, Meng Jingxian called her wet nurse: "Nanny, go to Consort Zhen's place and ask her to take care of the Prince in the front yard for me."

The wet nurse looked up at Meng Jingxian: "Does the Princess Consort want to have the spy by Consort Zhen's side spread the news of the Prince's impotence outside the manor?"

Clearly, the wet nurse thought the same as Meng Jingxian: this matter absolutely could not be covered up.

Meng Jingxian nodded: "Granny, please send the message home and see if you can get the information out of the imperial physician as well. With both sides confirming it, he must be guilty too!"

If that's truly not the case, in order to make her son the sole heir to this royal palace, she will make Prince Guo the one!

On the other side, after receiving the news, Liu Zhu excitedly led her people to the front yard.

In Prince Guo's room in the front courtyard, Prince Guo, whose chances of recovery had just been determined by the imperial physician to be slim, looked very unwell.

The imperial physician looked at his face, which was almost frozen, and thought to himself, "Thank goodness he was clever enough not to tell the whole truth, otherwise it would be hard to say whether he could even leave the Prince's mansion today."

After the imperial physician finished writing the prescription and left, Prince Guo smashed everything he could in the room.

The attendant stood trembling to one side, barely daring to breathe loudly, for fear of getting into trouble for it.

However, there were only two people in the room, making it difficult for Prince Guo not to notice him.
