"Zhuang Er." Fu Zhao murmured the name, but she had no impression of it.
She rarely goes to the front yard, and people like Zhuang Er have no chance to show their faces in front of her.
"Zhuang Er?" Si Qi's voice rose and his eyes widened slightly.
Fu Zhao raised his eyebrows: "Do you know him?"
Siqi nodded, "When I was working in the front yard, I saw Su Niang and Zhuang Er who were next to the Fourth Young Madam often interacting with each other. Later, when I inquired about it, I found out that they are biological siblings."
Fu Zhao sneered, "I see, that's the case. No wonder Zhao and Su Niang couldn't find out Chen Wen's whereabouts."
What Su Niang can ask for must be Zhuang Er. Zhuang Er has been Chen Wen's confidant for a long time. Zhuang Er knows clearly which one is more important.
"This Zhuang Er!" Siqi said angrily.
I don’t know whether I should say that Shoji is loyal or not.
Fu Zhao rubbed his brows tiredly.
Si Qi understood and let Hu Mao and Ji Feiyang go out.
Siqi then said: "It's better to go back first."
Fu Zhao raised his eyes and saw the handwriting written by Chen Feng yesterday on the table. He seemed to be able to smell the strong fragrance of ink.
Chen Feng's words are like his person, low-key and restrained, yet possessing a sharpness and edge.
It was inconvenient to work in the inner house, so Fu Zhao borrowed Chen Feng's study to meet Hu Mao and Ji Feiyang.
Fu Zhao's face was expressionless, and he tapped his fingers on the table unconsciously, and said calmly: "You used to be an errand here, was this the same?"
It took Si Qi a while to realize what Fu Zhao meant.
She immediately blushed with shame, and felt angry and disappointed in her heart.
Fu Zhao sat here for a long time, but no maid came to bring tea.
Si Qi said angrily: "Those little hooves, they don't know where to hide! It's time to punish them!"
Fu Zhao recalled what Chen Feng said yesterday.
Chen Feng seemed to have a plan to indulge the maids, and she could not disrupt Chen Feng's plan.
Fu Zhao straightened his sleeves and said, "That's all, let's wait and see how they perform after the incident is over. If it's still like this."
Her eyes suddenly turned sharp, and the rest of her words were self-evident.
Si Qi felt awe-struck and followed Fu Zhao out of the study and into the inner chamber.
A dark shadow has been hiding in the corner and watching the two of them.
After confirming that the two of them would not come back, the black shadow trotted to the back, where the servants were resting.
Yulu ran out of breath, "Sister Mingyue, the Crown Prince's wife is gone."
The bright moon is lowering its head, embroidered with a piece of handkerchief, which is a pattern of mandarin ducks playing in the water.
She is still young, and according to her age, she will be released to get married in one or two years.
Although she is a maid, she has a sense of pride in her heart.
She is the youngest daughter in the family. Among the older brothers, she has a daughter, and she is particularly favored.
While the other little girls were about to imitate Nv Hong in doing housework, she was in the room, holding a volume of books, reading all day long.
Her parents doted on her and never restricted her from reading.
Therefore, even after she came to the Hou Mansion to work as a maid, she knew that she was different from others.
She rubbed the handkerchief, wondering where to embroider a poem to make it look noble.
After hearing Yulu's words, she just hummed lightly, and the movements of her hands did not stop for a moment.
Yulu finally calmed down, but hesitated and did not leave, "Sister Mingyue, why don't you let me go over to pay my respects to the Crown Prince's wife and serve some tea."
There was a trace of fear hidden in Yulu's heart.
Last time, she was too lazy to do her errand, so she was slapped on the palm.
If Mrs. Shizi wanted to pursue the matter this time, she would have to be beaten again. The last beating was not healed, and her palms would feel itchy and uncomfortable on rainy days.
Mingyue finally raised her head and glanced at Yulu, "What are you afraid of?"
Yu Mian couldn't hide the panic on her face. She was young and didn't know how to hide her emotions.
She flattened her mouth and said aggrievedly: "I'm afraid of being beaten."
Mingyue laughed, her laughter as clear and sweet as bells in the wind: "Isn't it true that you haven't been beaten?"
Yulu lowered her head and twisted her clothes, feeling very uneasy.
If I didn't get beaten this time, I won't get beaten next time.
Mingyue was too lazy to say more to Yulu, and just said: "You are blocking my light."
Yulu quickly moved her position and walked out slowly.
Hearing the sound of the door closing, Mingyue suddenly raised her head and her eyes turned sharp.
The cool and cold expression disappeared, replaced by a gloomy look on his face.
She picked up the scissors in the embroidery basket and cut into pieces the handkerchief she was about to embroider.
She threw the scissors to the ground again, and then she felt a little relieved, but the stern look in her eyes never faded at all.

Zhuang Er came to see Su Niang again. It seemed that he was here to comfort his sister, but in fact he was here to show off his power.
"Both Madam and the Fourth Young Madam have agreed, right? We are all doing this for you, but you don't know what is good for you! If you want to cry, just use these few days to dry up your tears. Otherwise, people will dislike you if you get married.
Tears are bad luck!" Zhuang Er said angrily and left.
Su Niang was so angry that her face turned red and white, and tears fell down.
She had suffered so much from her ex-husband, but she still held her breath in her heart and refused to cry or let others see her jokes.
But now, the person closest to her wants to stab her heart and push her into a pit of fire. She can't stop crying no matter what.
There are people coming and going here, and every servant passing by will quietly look at Su Niang.
Su Niang quickly lowered her head and hurried to the backyard.
But she lowered her head, with tears in front of her eyes, unable to see the road clearly, and suddenly bumped into something soft.
Su Niang was knocked back several steps.
"Sister Su Niang, are you okay?"
Su Niang felt like she was being pulled. She looked up and saw Siqi. Looking forward, she saw that the smiling lady standing in front of her was none other than Fu Zhao.
Su Niang casually wiped her tears with her sleeves and said hello to Fu Zhaofu.
Fu Zhao thought of Zhuang Er's incident, and his heart moved, and his voice was gentle and gentle: "You are so good, why are you crying like this? Si Qi, please wipe Su Niang with a handkerchief."
Siqi took out his handkerchief and wiped Su Niang's tears.
Su Niang felt sour and let Si Qi help her wipe away her tears.
Fu Zhao continued: "The fourth sister-in-law is in confinement, and I'm afraid I can't spare the energy to take care of your affairs. If you have any difficulties, why not talk to me, as long as I can help, I will definitely help you.
of."
Su Niang recalled that the last time she asked Fu Zhao for help, Fu Zhao coldly rejected her, leaving no room for turning around.
Then this time, she shouldn't plead to Fu Zhao again.
