Consort Jin clenched her fists inside her sleeves and her pupils shrunk.
Of course, she was aware of Side Consort Hu’s insidious intentions, but she was powerless to do anything. When she confronted the other person, she claimed that Nanny Su was instigated by her.
She looked at Yaoniang anxiously and wondered if she would be able to bear the beatings.
Just then, Jin Wang spoke up.
“It was rewarded to her by this prince.”
Although the words were said lightly, everyone in the room was shocked and their jaws dropped.
Especially Side Consort Hu. With a face of disbelief, she stuttered, “Y-your highness…”
Yaoniang was also shocked and she lifted her head to look at Jin Wang.
Jin Wang did not make eye contact with her but looked at Side Consort Hu.
“Your highness! This… you… her… how is this possible…?” Side Consort Hu was incoherent, and her pair of phoenix eyes wide open. She gave others the feeling that she was about to fall apart in an instant.
Jin Wang looked cold and indifferent. He stared at her and said, “Since this prince said it was a reward from this prince, then it was a reward from this prince. This prince said that she didn’t have it, then she didn’t have it. You dare to disagree?” The last sentence was said in a very low voice. Each word was slowly enunciated, one at a time.
It was a warning. Jin Wang’s eyes expressed how serious he was.
Side Consort Hu’s face paled and she lost her ability to speak.
“This matter is over. If this prince finds out that one of you had meddled in this matter…” Jin Wang stood up and looked around at everyone in the room. He did not finish the words but left with Fucheng.
The room was completely silent. No one expected that it would end like this.
Jin Wang’s solution was arrogant, but no one dared to call him arrogant.
Jin Wang was the master of this manor. His words were the law. Even if he called the deer a horse, and turned black into white, everyone would acknowledge it as fact. Even if they couldn’t understand his actions, they knew that this farce disgusted Jin Wang.
Only some people believed that they understood. But the direction that they were thinking in, was not the same. Mammy Mu and her confidantes were not surprised by how the farce had ended. Others thought that Jin Wang was maintaining Consort Jin’s dignity, so he chose to protect her.
Side Consort Hu was one of those that thought in the latter direction. She never would have thought that the scheme, which she had worked hard to arrange, would end up like this.
But was there anyone that dared to argue? No one dared! Jin Wang’s phrase “You have any objections?” already left her speechless!
Although Side Consort Hu was very embarrassed, she still wasn’t afraid to look at Consort Jin. “Your highness has some skills!”
Consort Jin seemed to be thoughtful. She stared at the other woman and sneered.
Side Consort Hu left, and most of the room suddenly became empty. Those who had been grabbing onto Yaoniang had followed behind her.
Consort Jin approached Yaoniang. With her hands folded in front of her, she gazed at her from top to bottom. With a smile hanging from her mouth, she said, “You’re skilled.” After that, she took her people and left.
With the departure of Consort Jin and Side Consort Hu, Doctor Liu also bid goodbye. His prescription was already being brewed and all that’s left is for the little princess to drink it. He’d return later to do another check-up.
He explained everything that required extra attention. Then, Doctor Liu said that he needed to go back to his office and double-check if he had missed anything in the prescription. He also said that he’d be back shortly. Once he finished his words, he hurried out.
.
Only the servants that worked in the small courtyard remained.
“You’re really unlucky.” Yucui sighed and stepped forward to comfort Yaoniang. “Don’t overthink it. We all believe you.”
Yuyan sighed, and although she didn’t say anything, she also sympathized with Yaoniang.
“Yeah, Nanny Su. Don’t worry, we all know that you wouldn’t do this type of thing…” Luyao was going to continue when she was pulled away by Lu’er.
Lu’er looked at Nanny Qian, and Luyao followed her gaze.
Not only Luyao, but everyone else also looked at Nanny Qian.
Compared with the beginning, now she was like a jumping clown. Nanny Qian had become a complete joke.
Although no one laughed, their eyes glinted with mockery.
Nanny Qian wasn’t a calm person. Her face quickly blushed at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.
She couldn’t understand everything that had happened. But she quickly realized that Su Yaoniang not only had Mammy Mu backing her but that she also had the support of Jin Wang and Consort Jin.
How could she possibly get rid of Yaoniang so easily?
But Nanny Qian wasn’t thinking about how to get rid of Yaoniang. She was busy thinking of a way to save her own hide.
“Yucui, escort Nanny Qian to Liuchun Pavilion. The princess can’t afford to have her serving by her side.”
Nanny Qian’s legs softened and she fell to the ground. She tried to defend herself, “Mammy Mu, even if his highness had said that it wasn’t done by Nanny Su, but…”
Before she could finish her sentence, with a glance from Mammy Mu, Yucui came over and slapped her face.
“Your courage isn’t small. Who gave you the guts to challenge the master?!”
Until that moment, Yucui was someone that frequently smiled.? Now she exhibited majesty and cruelty as someone from the imperial palace.
Nanny Qian’s face became red and swollen, and it was easily visible to the naked eye. It was obvious that Yucui’s hand was quite heavy. She muttered in confusion, but still moved towards Nanny Wang “…Mammy, forgive me… Sister Wang…”
Nanny Wang instinctively avoided her eyes. Lu’er and Yucui dragged Nanny Qian out.
“Nanny Wang.” Mammy Mu’s voice suddenly sounded.
It was known whether she was frightened by Nanny Qian’s ending or something else, but Nanny Wang was so frightened that her body shook. “Mammy?”
“Focus on what you are paid to do. Don’t learn from Nanny Qian.”
“Understood.”
