Yinqi looked at Wanyue's retreating back, with a hint of gloom on his face, and whispered to the servants next to him, "Keep an eye on your direct descendant Fujin, and ask Housekeeper Yan to replace all the servants in the courtyard of Xinuang Pavilion."
"Yes, Lord Baylor! I'll do it now." After the servant finished speaking, he respectfully withdrew.
Yinqi turned around and sat on the chair. He knew that Wanyue had been wronged today, and he wanted to do something to make up for Wanyue.
After Wanyue returned to Xinuang Pavilion, she lay down on the bed, thinking about what had just happened.
If I hadn't asked Grandma Wang to make arrangements in advance, I'm afraid I would have died in the hands of Grandma Gui today!
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sneer.
An old slave like Aunt Gui is best at disguising. She usually does one thing in front of others and another behind her back. If Aunt Gui hadn't said that she had found the cause of the disease, Wanyue might still be kept in the dark.
She couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart. If she was not prepared today and really died in the hands of Aunt Gui, she would have died unjustly!
Thinking of this, Wanyue couldn't help but shudder. She closed her eyes and tried to forget what happened today.
After a while, the door was pushed open, and Grandma Wang walked in with several slaves.
"Miss, you were shocked today." Grandma Wang walked to Wanyue's bedside and said.
"It doesn't matter to me." Wanyue raised her eyes and glanced at her with a somewhat indifferent expression.
"Miss, I know that you are a kind-hearted child, and you don't want what happened today. However, since they dare to harm the lady, we cannot let them have an easy time." Grandma Wang approached Wanyue and lowered her voice to comfort her.
Wanyue nodded, and then Grandma Wang glanced at the maids behind her and introduced them to Wanyue.
"These maids were just sent over by Butler Yan. They said they were specially ordered by Master Beile."
Wanyue nodded towards her. The servants in Xinuan Pavilion should be carefully selected, and the nuns in Dongnuan Pavilion should also prepare some capable ones.
While she was thinking about it, Grandma Wang curled her lips, stood up and stood beside Wanyue's bed.
"Miss, don't worry. These girls are newly selected in our house. If you don't like them in the future, just ask and I will send someone to send them away."
After Grandma Wang finished speaking, she saw that Wanyue was a little tired and winked at the maids beside her.
"My young master, please rest first. The servants have gone out first. If you have anything to do, just tell us." The maids said in unison, very well-behaved and courteous.
"Yeah." Wanyue didn't even raise her head, she just replied softly, not wanting to look at the new maids.
After the maids retreated, Grandma Wang sat next to Wanyue, reached out and touched Wanyue's forehead, and said worriedly: "Miss, thank you for taking precautions this time. If you hadn't asked me to go to the bank in advance,
Check it out, I'm afraid you will suffer from them."
Wanyue's pupils shrank, yes, what happened today was quite thrilling, but fortunately she had planned it in advance, otherwise.
"Now that I think about it, I'm still a little scared." Grandma Wang let out a long breath.
Wanyue smiled bitterly and said, "Don't worry, Auntie Gui. I don't take Auntie Gui to heart. As for Guar Jiayinan"
"Miss." Grandma Wang stopped talking.
"Don't worry, mama, I won't let Guar Jiayinan hurt me again."
Seeing that Wanyue seemed to have made up her mind, Grandma Wang said, "I still have to advise you to think twice. You have seen Grandma Gui's methods before. I have such a servant in Fujin, so you know that her own methods should not be underestimated."
.”
Wanyue nodded after hearing this.
Early the next morning, it was almost noon when Wanyue woke up.
Grandma Wang personally brought over a bowl of bird's nest porridge.
"Miss, the dining room has specially left bird's nest porridge for you. Drink it while it's hot."
"Yeah." Wanyue nodded and took a sip of porridge.
"Did you sleep well last night?"
Grandma Wang looked at Wanyue's dark circles and couldn't help but feel a little distressed. She also thought that Master Beile rested in the lady's room last night, so she didn't ask further questions.
Wanyue nodded, "Well, I had a nightmare last night. I dreamed that a big black dog kept chasing me and wanted to bite me."
After hearing this, Grandma Wang's face became a little ugly. After a moment of silence, she finally said, "Miss, don't worry, dreams are always the opposite."
After lunch, Wanyue took Yudan to the garden to bask in the sun. Suddenly she heard footsteps not far away, and a familiar voice followed: "Sister, what a coincidence, you are here too."
Wanyue raised her eyes and saw that the person coming was Liu Jiamiaoyin.
Wanyue said calmly: "Hello, sister."
"Sister, I heard that my sister was frightened yesterday and was about to go to Xinan Pavilion to see you. I didn't expect to meet you here."
"I'm sorry to bother you, sister. I'm fine with you. It's just..." Wanyue hesitated, thinking that Liu Jiamiaoyin lived in the west side hall, and there was only a wall between her and her yard, so why did she come to the garden to meet her by chance?
When Liu Jiamiaoyin saw that Wanyue was only speaking half of her words, she couldn't help but frowned and asked hurriedly: "It's just what? My sister, it doesn't matter if you say it."
"It's just that I had a nightmare last night."
"What did you dream about?"
"I dreamed that a black dog suddenly jumped out and chased me, trying to bite me, and finally bit me seriously."
"What, such a thing could happen?" Liu Jiamiaoyin was shocked when she heard this.
"To be honest with my sister, I was really frightened at that time. Maybe it was because of the fright I received yesterday."
Liu Jiamiaoyin quickly comforted Wanyue, "Don't worry, sister, this is just a nightmare."
"What my sister said is true, and I believe it's just a nightmare."
The two chatted for a long time, and Liu Jiamiaoyin left because she wanted to go back to take care of Hongsheng and Junhua.
As soon as Liu Jiamiaoyin came out of the pavilion in the garden, she saw Bai Jiasuxin.
"Hey, isn't this our concubine Fujin from Baylor Mansion? What are you doing here in this afternoon?" Liu Jiamiaoyin looked at Bai Jiasuxin with disdain.
"I just came for a walk." Bai Jiasuxin said lightly.
"Oh? Really? Then I won't delay my sister's walk." Liu Jiamiaoyin snorted coldly, twisted her waist and walked away.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Bai Jia Suxin stood there, looking at Liu Jiamiaoyin's back, wishing to kill this bitch with a knife.
"My lord, you don't need to pay attention to this Liu Jia family from Fujin." Shuang'er, who was standing by, saw Su Xin's expression of disgust and hurriedly comforted her.
Su Xin's eyes became more and more fierce when she looked at Liu Jiamiaoyin. If it weren't for her, her child would have died in childbirth. It's a pity that no one in the house knows her true face.
"Sister Su Xin." Su Xin was thinking thoughtfully when a soft and melodious voice sounded beside her.
Bai Jia Suxin came back to her senses and saw that the person coming was Wanyue. She quickly showed a gentle look and said, "Sister, are you taking a walk here too?"
"Well, you too?" Wanyue smiled at Su Xin. As soon as the two met, her worries seemed to disappear.
"Yes, what a coincidence. I went to bed late last night, so I got up a little late." After Bai Jiasuxin finished speaking, she glanced at Wanyue and continued: "After lunch, I went to this courtyard with Shuang'er.
Let’s go, I didn’t expect to meet my sister. I heard Shuang’er talk about what happened yesterday, and my sister was really wronged.”
"This matter spread really fast." Wanyue couldn't help but sigh.
"Yes, I heard that after being punished by the execution hall, Aunt Gui threw her luggage out of Baylor Mansion. She deserves it if she dares to frame my sister like this."
Su Xin had an indignant expression on her face, as if she was seeking justice for herself.
"I don't blame Aunt Gui. She also has a master above her. She is just being used by others. I can sympathize with Aunt Gui." Wanyue said, her tone full of tolerance and kindness.
"Su Xin admires my sister for her generosity. However, this matter will not be that simple. There must be some conspiracy behind it. Sister, you must be careful." Su Xin warned.
"I understand, thank you sister for your concern."
After Wanyue finished speaking, the two looked at each other, smiled, and chatted for a while before they dispersed.
In a few days, the story of Fujin's personal maid in Wubeile Mansion murdering Chou Fujin's Tara family somehow spread throughout the capital and became the talk of many noble ladies in the capital after dinner.
Even the Empress Dowager and Concubine Yi who were in the palace knew about this, and the Empress Dowager even sent her personal maid out of the palace to check.
However, the nun who went to Fujin's house to investigate the situation did not come to Wanyue's house to inquire.
When the nanny left, Housekeeper Yan came to Xinuang Pavilion, and Wanyue was forced to go to the palace with Yinqi to explain the matter to the Queen Mother's grandmother and mother-in-law.
In the main hall of Ningshou Palace, Wanyue and Yinqi were kneeling in front of the hall, not daring to raise their heads.
The Queen Mother sat in the upper seat and asked coldly: "Fifth Brother, is this true?"
Concubine Yi sat on the left side of the Queen Mother, looking down at Yiqi and the daughter-in-law with a slight frown. This matter had almost become a source of ridicule for other concubines, saying that her son could not even take care of the backyard.
How could she bear it?
Yinqi knelt down and nodded.
"To report to Grandmother the Queen Mother, it was Aunt Gui who did this herself because her grandson knew that she had always disliked Xi Fujin. In order to consolidate her master's position, she wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of Xi Fujin."
Yinqi's voice was not high and his tone was not strong, but it was enough for the Queen Mother to hear clearly every word he said.
"That's so outrageous!" The Empress Dowager slapped the table in anger, causing Wanyue and Yinqi who were kneeling below to shrink back.
The Empress Dowager will never allow anyone to treat her grandchildren like this, especially her most beloved grandson.
Nowadays, she, the grandmother, has to personally investigate the rumors about her grandson's backyard.
"She is an old woman, and she actually wants to get rid of a defenseless imperial concubine, Fujin! She is too courageous, isn't she?" Concubine Yi also said angrily.
Hearing her mother-in-law say that she was defenseless, Wanyue couldn't help but burst into tears because her mother-in-law felt sorry for her.
"Empress Dowager, grandmother, mother-in-law, please don't be angry. If you get angry, I will feel sorry for you." Wanyue whispered in a low voice, with a well-behaved look, which attracted the empress dowager's affection.
The Empress Dowager said gently: "You should get up first. We are not angry when we come to you and Yinqi. It's just that something like this happened and caused a big fuss and affected Yinqi's reputation."
Wanyue stood up and stepped aside obediently.
The Empress Dowager then told Concubine Yi: "The Ai family will investigate this matter thoroughly, and you should not interfere, lest you become more involved and become more chaotic."
After hearing this, Concubine Yi nodded in agreement.
