Shen Yan stood up directly with a cold face, not looking at the ministers who were kneeling in the banquet. He would never tolerate his officials being drunkards and obsessed with beauty, and Qiongzhou's team was still under rectification.
When the others left, Jiang Chuan was already breaking out in a cold sweat. The minister beside him raised his head tremblingly, glanced at the door, and then asked him cautiously.
"Sir, this Mr. Shen is so unsophisticated that he doesn't even like the beauty of these flower girls. Are you deliberately trying to show me how to look at them?"
"Shut up!"
Jiang Chuan had already realized at this time that he had made a completely wrong move.
"Send all these flower girls back, and you are not allowed to go to Qin Lou Chu Pavilion again in the future!"
"Master Jiang?"
Seeing the beauty being sent away, everyone's faces were full of reluctance, but thinking of Shen Yanqing's attitude just now, this reluctance was nothing compared to their own future.
"What does Shen Shoufu mean? He just left like this. What are we going to do?"
Although Shen Yanqing only accused Jiang Chuan just now, how could they not understand that there were still people who indulged in pleasure and they offended Shangfeng, but Shangfeng was reused by the emperor, so how could they not panic.
"Go back first."
Jiang Chuan was equally panicked. He wiped the cold sweat from his head and ordered everyone.
Shen Yanqing did not deal with him directly, indicating that the matter could still turn around.
Nowadays, there are not many people available for Shen Yanqing in Qiongzhou, so he will not dismiss himself easily.
Thinking about it this way, Jiang Chuan felt slightly relieved and left the house with his cronies.
Several flower girls were carried and thrown into the carriage. Along the way, they were often taken advantage of by these vulgar servants. If they had been in the past, they would have screamed and said some soft words based on their beauty. They can get adults to spend a lot of money on them, and it is completely easy to deal with a few servants.
But at this time, no one dared to speak, and they all swallowed their grievances silently.
The new Mr. Shen is not a womanizer, and their beauty has no advantage over him, and even angered Mr. Shen.
These flower ladies were in panic. It was just fine that Shen Yanqing didn't get close to them. If they lost business along with other adults, they would really be doomed.
Yu Nong was crowded among the flower girls, her little face was pale, and her carefully put on makeup was all gone. She bit her lips and clenched her nails tightly into her palms, with great shame and unwillingness in her heart.
"It's all Yu Nong's fault. He has no eyesight at all. He offended Mr. Shen and also caused us trouble!"
"That is, if I had been serving Master Shen at that time, we would definitely not have been kicked out!"
Halfway through the car, a noise suddenly erupted in the silent carriage. The flower girls had never seen anything official, and they were mostly jealous of their patrons. Now fear and jealousy made Yu Nong the target of public criticism.
Yu Nong raised her head, her usually soft eyes became sharp. After all, she was also the courtesan of Lian Yulou and the trump card in Chun's mother's hand. These courtesans only dared to complain a few words and did not dare to really conflict with her. .
After being glared at by her, the flower girls lowered their heads one after another and only dared to complain in their hearts.
Magistrate's office.
Jiang Miao learned from Wu Yue what happened in the front yard, and the smile disappeared from her face.
Mrs. Chen was talking to her, but when she saw her sudden change of expression, her heart skipped a beat.
She didn't dare to ask directly what happened, and she was only filled with fear.
"It's getting late. Could you please Mrs. Jiang to take care of me? These pieces of jewelry will be my meeting gifts to the ladies."
Jiang Miao waved her hand, and Qinglian came forward with a tray on which were placed several kinds of gold and jade jewelry. Each piece was a treasure. The eyes of Jiang Xuan and others suddenly lit up.
This is jewelry from the capital city. They have never seen it in Qiongzhou. The exquisite style and exquisite workmanship are enough to put it beyond the reach of the most popular jewelry shops in Qiongzhou.
Jiang Xuan was the first to stand up, staring at the three golden hairpins in a dilemma, not knowing which one to choose. She liked them all and even thought about matching clothes.
If all these golden hairpins belong to her, she will definitely be the most noticed young lady in the audience at the next banquet.
Thinking that the little bitch Jiang Wen also had these golden hairpins, her heart was filled with disgust.
Jiang Xuan grabbed all three gold hairpins, painfully selected the lightest one and handed it to Jiang Lin, then took it back after thinking about it.
"You are still young and cannot control Jin Yu. Sister Jin Chai will help you keep it first."
Jiang Lin curled her lips, but she was used to Jiang Xuan's domineering temperament. Although Jiang Xuan was more than ten years older than her, she had not looked like a sister since she was a child. Jiang Lin did not dare to express her anger, so she could only look at her with an angry face.
Take the hairpin away.
As for Jiang Wen's one, Jiang Xuan didn't say anything at all and just grabbed it in her hand and wouldn't let it go.
Jiang Wen's chest heaved and her eyes were red with anger. She pinched her fingers and mustered up the courage to ask.
"Sister, which gold hairpin belongs to Wen'er?"
"How can a concubine like you deserve such precious jewelry? When I get back, I will give you the new hairpin I bought last time at Baozhen Pavilion. I will keep this gold hairpin."
"you!"
Jiang Wen didn't expect that she would be so shameless. What about Baozhen Pavilion's noodle? She could buy it herself. Can the best noodle and noodle be compared to what the princess gave her?
Moreover, this was given to the three of them by the princess, so why should Jiang Xuan only enjoy it?
Jiang Wen glanced at Jiang Miao aggrievedly, but Jiang Miao was thinking about what happened before and didn't notice what happened between them. Jiang Wen thought Jiang Miao looked down on her, and like Jiang Xuan, she thought she was
Concubine, thinking about it like this, her palms were pinched with a mark.
Chen still wanted to be shameless, but she didn't expect Jiang Xuan to be so out of place outside. This daughter was spoiled by her. In addition, in Qiongzhou, she had the highest status among the noble girls of the aristocratic families, and everyone held her in high esteem.
She, therefore, coaxed Jiang Xuan into feeling arrogant and arrogant, and dared to act recklessly in front of Princess Rongning.
Mrs. Chen glared at Jiang Xuan fiercely, took two gold hairpins from her hands, handed them to Jiang Wen and Jiang Lin respectively, and then said with a kind look on her face.
"Your sister is joking with you two. How dare she keep the gold hairpin as a gift from the princess herself? Take it quickly."
Jiang Lin happily took it, put it on her head, and shook her head for Mrs. Chen to see.
"Does mother look good?"
"Well, it looks good."
She is still young and is indeed not suitable for wearing gold and jade, but if the young lady likes it, Mrs. Chen will not throw cold water on her.
Jiang Wen held the golden hairpin in her hand, completely losing her previous joy. This was not a reward from a noble person, but more like a charity.
Just because she is a concubine, these people look down on her.
The more Jiang Wen thought about it, the more unwilling she became. If she also had a good family background, why should she be humiliated here?
