Rumeng held her neck and refused to beg Fu Zhao for mercy.
Fu Zhao lowered his head and adjusted his sleeves, and said slowly: "Do you still think that Madam is still willing to have you?"
Rumeng immediately said: "This slave is originally Madam's, and the deed of sale is also in Madam's hands. How could Madam not be willing to have a slave?"
Fu Zhao chuckled lightly, raised his eyebrows, and said meaningfully: "I'm afraid you will be disappointed now. Your contract of betrayal is already with me."
Rumeng's eyes widened, "Impossible! You must be lying to me!"
"Why did I lie to you about these things?" Fu Zhao said with a smile, "If you don't believe it, go to Madam now and tell Madam what happened in my house today, and let Madam make the decision for you. You say, Madam
Are you willing to help you, an outsider, or me, her daughter-in-law?"
Rumeng was immediately discouraged.
Although Mrs. Chen and Fu Zhao are not of the same mind, Mrs. Chen is a face-saving person and will definitely help Fu Zhao and prevent outsiders from laughing at her.
The only one who sacrifices in the end is himself.
Moreover, the deed of betrayal is still in Fu Zhao's hands, and it is not Fu Zhao's decision whether to send it out or not.
Rumeng gritted her teeth and fell into a tangle.
Fu Zhao's patience had run out, and she told Si Qi, "Go find a nanny, we can't keep this maid. I will go and talk to the madam later, and say that Rumeng wants to go home."
, came to me specifically to ask for grace.”
Rumeng's voice was sharp, "No! I don't want to go home!"
At this time, she finally realized that she was afraid. She took a few steps and hugged Fu Zhao's leg, begging: "I was wrong. I don't dare to do it anymore. Please be merciful and spare me this time!"
"
It’s too late to beg for mercy now!
Fu Zhao remained silent and looked at Rumeng's cries and tears with an expressionless face, unmoved at all.
The maid next to her understood what Fu Zhao meant and dragged Rumeng out.
After leaving the house, Rumeng felt depressed and pale, so she had to pack her luggage first.
Fu Zhao waved to Siqi and said, "Follow her and see where she goes."
"Yes." Siqi went out.
About an hour later, Siqi came back.
"My servant has been following her and found that she went to the Second Young Madam. But the Second Young Madam did not see her, so she was rejected."
Fu Zhao raised his eyebrows. Rumeng did not go to Mrs. Chen's place, but went to Mr. Qian's place. It was interesting.
Si Qi asked: "How to deal with this thing that eats everything inside and outside?"
Fu Zhao said that there was a contract of sale of Ru Meng, but it was actually a lie. He just wanted to deceive Ru Meng, but he didn't expect that there would be an unexpected surprise.
Rumeng's contract of sale is still with Mrs. Chen, so it is indeed a bit tricky to deal with it.
Fu Zhao thought for a moment and then said: "If you still send her back to the madam, just say that the prince doesn't like her."
Si Qi responded and went out.
Fu Zhao's eyes turned cold, and Qian secretly tried to trick her over and over again, fearing that she would be in trouble.
But the most important thing at the moment is the banquet at Prince Gong's palace. There is no evidence about Qian's matter, and it cannot teach Qian any lessons.
Fu Zhao tightened his fingers. Sooner or later, Qian would fall hard.
Going to the banquet at Prince Gong's Mansion was no small matter. When the day finally arrived, everyone got up early to pack up and dress up.
In Princess Gong's hand, she was holding a list.
Her face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and she wanted to kill everyone on the list!
Aunt Zhu quickly advised: "My dear, please calm down. These are the families that the prince wants to win over, and they must not be offended."
Princess Gong snorted and said displeasedly: "Who is he trying to win over? Why not let me go? Instead, leave it to that bitch who has no place on the stage!"
"Who are you calling a bitch?" Prince Gong walked in from outside.
Aunt Zhu was startled and hurriedly saluted Prince Gong.
Princess Gong is not afraid of Prince Gong. She is the niece of the Queen Mother. She grew up next to the Queen Mother. Even the Queen Mother has to treat her a little bit thinly when she sees her.
If Prince Gong dares to bully her, all she has to do is go to the Queen Mother and cry, and the next day the Queen will rebuke Prince Gong and make the decision for her.
Princess Gong stood up slowly and bowed arrogantly.
Prince Gong's eyes darkened, but he said nothing. He just looked at what the princess was holding and asked, "What are you holding?"
Princess Gong almost instinctively hid the list behind her, "It's nothing."
After repeated disrespect, Prince Gong stopped laughing and said sternly: "Don't hold me back! If you let me know that you were confused again and did something stupid, don't blame me for being rude!"
Princess Gong was not afraid at all, but she still promised: "I understand."
Prince Gong looked at her deeply, turned and left.
Aunt Zhu breathed a sigh of relief, because she understood the princess's temperament, so she advised again: "My Lady, please just pretend that this list does not exist."
"How is that possible?" Princess Gong gritted her teeth and said, "Although we can't kill these people, we can always play pranks."
Aunt Zhu sighed. The princess had been raised by the Queen Mother since she was a child. The Queen Mother was arrogant and indulgent towards her, which in turn developed her fearless character.
Aunt Zhu comforted herself that it was okay to play pranks, at least it would not kill anyone.
As soon as the sun rises, the palace opens its doors and prepares to welcome guests.
Slowly, there were more and more carriages on the street, and almost all of them were going to the palace.
The Marquis's carriage was also among them.
Fu Zhao straightened Su Yurong's clothes and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, as long as you stay with your elders, nothing will happen."
It was also the first time for Su Yurong to go to the palace, so she was inevitably nervous.
Her face was so red that even rouge and gouache couldn't cover it up, and her eyes were even more frighteningly bright.
Fu Zhaoxiao asked: "What are you thinking about?"
Su Yurong lowered her head shyly and whispered: "It's nothing."
She was thinking that Dong Xiu would also go this time.
In another carriage in the Hou Mansion, Mr. Ma and Mr. Zhao were sitting together.
Ma looked at Zhao's belly with soft eyes, "She's almost pregnant. Has this little guy been tossing you recently?"
Ms. Zhao shook her head and smiled helplessly, "He didn't bother me, but I couldn't sleep because of other things, for fear of affecting him."
Because Chen Wen had nothing to do with her family, Mrs. Zhao was very worried and couldn't sleep well at night.
For the sake of her children, she forced herself to sleep, but it had the opposite effect. The more she wanted to sleep, the more she couldn't fall asleep. Sometimes she couldn't sleep for a while until dawn.
Today she got up very early in order to come to the palace for a banquet and almost didn't sleep all night. Now she looked very haggard.
Ma took hold of Zhao's hand and said warmly: "That won't work. I have some soothing incense here. You can take it and use it. I used it often when I was pregnant with Brother Ze."
