At this moment, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly. She finally saw it for herself: if she didn't go shopping, she would lose money and still owe them favors.

"Outrageous! Is this how you should behave?" Yin was enraged.

Instantly, the shopkeepers turned into quails, all inwardly complaining that even if the Fourth Prince denied it again, he couldn't deny the relationship between Consort Tong and Tong Guowei's residence.

Now that Emperor Kangxi is in a fit of anger, if Consort Tong reconciles with her family, Qingyan will definitely suffer. In fact, she might even have to make up for the loss of her headdress over the past few years.

"Yes, we deserve to die! We shouldn't have tried to guess what our masters meant!" Several managers quickly kowtowed. Behind them knelt the women, the wives and daughters, all of them looking utterly hopeless. Their sins were the most serious. If they fared well, they would be sold into slavery; if they fared poorly, they would be sent to some shameful place.

"Your skills are quite good. Go to the Linglong Pavilion's tailoring department in Jiangnan to work as embroiderers. From now on, you will have nothing to do with them. Are you willing?"

"Master, are you saying that it doesn't matter anymore, and that we don't have to accompany them regardless of whether they are sold or not?" a girl asked in surprise.

"Yes, and besides, since they've been sold off, you can't redeem them." Qingyan's words fell silent. (To be continued. If you like this work, please vote for it on Qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
