He Zhu walked timidly to the bed, not daring to raise his head.
He sat up with difficulty. She slowed down and slapped He Zhu hard.
Before she could trim it, her fingertips were like a knife, cutting He Zhu's face with burning pain.
He Zhu touched his face and seemed to feel blood stains.
She cried out of pain and fear, but she was also afraid of He, so she bit her lips tightly, not even daring to cry anymore, her eyes kept rolling in her sockets.
He said angrily: "You're useless! My mother asked you to come here to tie Chen Xin's heart, but you're useless! You trash, get out!"
He Zhu covered her face and went out in embarrassment, almost bumping into Yin Xiang who was holding a medicine bowl.
Yin Xiang said angrily: "Are you in such a hurry to reincarnate?"
Although Yin Xiang was a servant, He Zhu didn't dare to talk back when she was scolded, so she went out in a panic.
When she left the yard, she looked around blankly, not knowing where to go.
It had been several days since she arrived at the Hou Mansion, but she had never stepped out of He's courtyard.
If she left like this, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to find her way back.
He Zhu had no choice but to squat in the corner under the wall, hugging his knees and crying softly.
After crying for a while, he saw a figure falling in front of him.
He Zhu was startled and hurriedly wiped away her tears before running away.
The man stopped her and said, "Where are you going?"
He Zhu stopped.
Si Qi then grabbed He Zhu's wrist and said gently: "If you are like this, if the Third Young Madam sees you, the Third Young Madam will definitely think you are unlucky."
He Zhu pursed her lips, this was indeed He's style.
If he is slightly unhappy, he will take it out on her.
Si Qi continued: "You and I can go to our Crown Prince's wife to wash our faces."
Hearing the words of Mrs. Crown Prince, He Zhu showed timidity again, "I...I still won't go. I don't have the face to see people like this."
Si Qi consoled him: "My wife is a very nice person, don't be afraid."
With that said, Siqi pulled He Zhu back.
He Zhu followed Siqi back in a daze. When he entered the house and saw the woman sitting on the couch, looking at him with a gentle and gentle look, He Zhu showed timidity again and hurriedly lowered his head and saluted.
"What's wrong with your face? Siqi, bring a basin of hot water and some ointment." Fu Zhao ordered.
Si Qi responded and went to prepare.
Fu Zhao asked Liangsui to move a small spoon and said softly: "Sit down quickly."
He Zhu sat down cautiously and restrainedly, not knowing where to put his hands nervously.
Liangsui poured hot tea and stuffed it into He Zhu's hand.
He Zhu drank a few sips and felt much better.
Si Qi poured some hot water and took some ointment.
After washing his face and applying ointment, He Zhu felt a little relieved.
When He Zhu was at home, her parents loved her very much and she was also a rich girl.
It was only because of being tortured by Mr. He that he became timid and cowardly.
She stood up and thanked her sincerely, "Thank you very much, otherwise I might not be able to survive."
Fu Zhao smiled and said: "Whether you can survive or not depends entirely on yourself. I can help you this time, but I'm afraid I can't help you for the rest of your life."
Loneliness flashed across He Zhu's face, and she looked frightened and uneasy when she thought about returning to He's house.
Fu Zhaoxing's eyes flashed with sharpness, and he said softly: "If you are wronged in the future, don't hide under the wall and cry, come and sit here. Although I can't help you with anything, at least I can give you a little help.
A quiet house.”
He Zhu was moved and thanked Fu Zhao again.
Fu Zhao sent Si Qi to send He Zhu back in person.

After the beginning of spring, all the aristocratic families in the capital sent out posts about flower viewing feasts.
Among them, the most important post should be the one sent by Princess Gong.
After Prince Gong came out to open the palace, Princess Gong would send out a message in the palace every March. Anyone whose name could be called in the capital was included in her invitation.
At this time, there was a mess in front of Princess Gong, and the dishes on the table were thrown to the floor. She had obviously lost her temper.
The servants waited on him carefully, not daring to show their anger.
It was Princess Gong's dowry. Aunt Zhu, who had grown up with her, stepped forward and carefully wiped Princess Gong's hands with a handkerchief, "If you lose your temper, you will lose your temper, but you have to be careful not to hurt yourself."
Princess Gong's face was still full of anger. This time, even Aunt Zhu couldn't calm her down.
Aunt Zhu thought for a moment and figured out why the princess was angry.
Aunt Zhu took back her handkerchief and lowered her voice, "No matter what, the person outside is dishonest. Why are you angry over such a woman who doesn't deserve to be on the stage?"
When mentioning that woman, Princess Gong lost her temper again, "I know she can't stand on the stage, but she is just a fly! It makes me annoyed! I want to slap her to death! But for that bitch, the prince refused several times
You are going against me! How can I not be angry!"
Aunt Zhu sighed. In this matter, Prince Gong indeed went too far, supporting an outsider woman like this.
"She held a flower-viewing banquet ahead of me. It is said that many concubines of high officials and nobles were there. She simply didn't take me seriously!" Prince Gong slapped the table angrily.
She focused her gaze and ordered: "Go and send someone to check. I remember that there is one of our spies around that bitch. Go and check to see who has been there! These people who don't give me face can't let go."
Let me show them a good look!"
Aunt Zhu agreed and went out to do it.

The Hou Mansion and others are all going to the flower viewing banquet at Prince Gong's Mansion.
The masters of the Hou Mansion all began to cut new clothes and customize jewelry.
On the day of the banquet, we must not lose the face of the Hou Mansion.
Fu Zhao looked at Siqi and Liangsui busying themselves with other things, but she herself became a person with nothing to do.
By chance, Rumeng came to tell her that clothes for Chen Feng were ready.
Fu Zhao raised his eyebrows.
A half-finished piece of clothing, Rumeng spent the whole day working on it from morning to night. He was afraid that she would not see the same thing, so he chose a conspicuous place to make the clothes.
Rumeng has been working on it for a long time, and this time is enough for other embroiderers to make several clothes.
Now, Rumeng is willing to finish making this dress.
She smiled and let Rumeng in.
Ru Meng came in holding the clothes, and after bowing, she said, "I've finished it. Because the embroidery on it is complicated, I've been doing it for a long time and kept you waiting. It may be useful for the banquet of the palace this time."
Rumeng handed over the clothes and handed them to Fu Zhao.
Fu Zhao was just about to say a few words when he heard the maid outside greeting Chen Feng.
Chen Feng always leaves early and comes home late. Unexpectedly, he came back during the day this time.
When she wanted to put her clothes aside and stand up to greet her, Chen Feng had already entered.
