"No way." The eldest lady quickly smiled, and the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes wrinkled together, "The Marquis has told me that I will be in charge of the entire Marquis Mansion. I will allocate all the money and goods in the Marquis Mansion."
"That is also the allocation of money from the Marquis's public account. It has nothing to do with private property."
"That's what the prince said."
Jun Youqi asked in a calm voice, "Congratulators here, are the gifts you are sending to the Marquis, or are they for the private property of the Fourth Madam of the Marquis?"
Everyone knew that the Crown Prince and King Qi were here to attend the birthday banquet of the Fourth Madam, and they were giving honor to the Fourth Madam’s daughter, Feng Jingyun. So the guests who came naturally answered one after another, “They are all for the Fourth Madam’s personal/only gift.
The fourth lady/is not given to the Marquis..."
"Whose gift is for the Marquis?" Jun Youqi pointed to the small space in front of him, "Stand here."
Who dares to stand up? To oppose King Qi is not to seek death. All the guests looked at each other, and no one stood up. Even the ministers who had some connections with the eldest lady did not have the courage.
"Did Madam see it?" Jun Youqican asked with a smile.
"I saw it. All the congratulatory gifts are private to the fourth lady."
"Do you understand something? Do you want me to wake you up?" There was a smile on his face, and there was a hint of mischief in his bright pupils.
"No, no, no." The eldest lady waved her hands and immediately ordered, "Come, please send all the guests' gifts to Laiyiju."
"Yes, ma'am." The servant responded and did as instructed.
The eldest lady looked at the piles of congratulatory gifts that were brought to and from the ceremonial residence. They were all gifts from dignitaries. In order to show their status, those distinguished guests would not be too gentle. More than a thousand gifts were stolen.
A lifetime is enough. My body hurts so much, but I have to force a smile on my face. Damn King Qi! Damn King Qi... I curse King Qi a thousand times and ten thousand times in my heart.
Jun Youqi knew that she was itching with hatred, but he did not dare to fart randomly. He deliberately smiled and said, "The eldest lady seems to be not looking well? Do you want me to ask an imperial doctor to 'treat' you?"
The doctor he hired came to treat her, but he didn't kill her yet. She quickly shook her head, "Thank you, King Qi, for your kindness. No need. I'm feeling very well... I mean, maybe I'm tired after standing for a long time.
I’ll be fine if I take a break.”
Prince Jun Chenghao said coldly, "Let all the guests wait like this? Feng Jingyun is too disrespectful. Where is the birthday banquet she prepared? Is the kitchen in the house preparing it?"
"Not yet..." The eldest lady quickly shied away the responsibility, "It's the fourth lady and Feng Jingyun who didn't allow me to interfere. Maybe they prepared some special food."
Some ministers were dissatisfied, "There are so many people in the Houfu that the whole house is almost packed. A feast for at least a thousand people must be prepared in advance. Your house has no arrangements now. It simply doesn't take us seriously."
inside!"
"Yes, yes...it's so shameless..." someone kept echoing.
"I am also helpless. I wanted to arrange it earlier, but I really mistrusted the Fourth Madam and neglected all of you. I will apologize to all of you." The First Madam looked aggrieved.
Many people pointed the finger at the Fourth Madam, "Then it's the Fourth Madam's fault. She couldn't prepare and didn't let the Eldest Madam intervene. She must be trying to attract limelight but she doesn't have the ability..."
"That's right, she probably wants to be the master of the family. She is just a concubine. She is aiming at the position of the eldest lady and wants to make a comeback..."
