Shangguan Chaolu was immediately furious. She walked forward cursing and holding her waist, pulled open the curtain, grabbed the person inside by the hair, pulled her off the bed, and slapped her in the face.
He was doing it like he was risking his life.
"I'll beat you to death, you little bitch! You're being naughty in broad daylight and seducing the Second Master..."
"Madam, please spare my life...Madam, I will never dare to do that again!"
Others have become accustomed to this and it happens several times a month.
Firstly, the young lady of the Duke's Mansion really doesn't tolerate any injustice. Secondly, this young prince really doesn't care about food or meat. It seems that he is deliberately opposing the mistress. He likes to find the mistress's personal maid. Today's Cui'er is a new replacement. The mistress's previous maids were either sold or jumped into the well...
Zhao Quan lifted the bed curtain and slowly fastened his inner garment, ignoring everything in front of him.
Shangguan Chaolu became even angrier. She glanced at Cui'er, who was beaten like a pig's head on the ground, and without caring about the demeanor of the mistress of the house, she raised her long nails and scratched Cui'er's face directly.
"I'll destroy your face and see how you can seduce men!"
Cui'er screamed, and then a scarlet streak of blood appeared on her face. She covered her face with her hands, and blood leaked from between her fingers all over the floor.
She crawled towards Zhao Quan crying, "Second Master, please save this servant..."
Zhao Quan looked at the scar on her face with disgust, raised his foot and kicked it away.
Shangguan Chaolu felt a little relieved and raised her hand to ask someone to pull Cui'er away.
Cui'er left crying and wailing.
Shangguan Chaolu glared at Zhao Quan, then sat down.
Zhao Quan approached with a playful smile, "Who has offended you again? Why are you so angry..."
"Who else could it be? If it weren't for you, a lonesome person, would I have gone back to my parents' house to beg for help and stick to Zhao Ying's cold butt?"
She pretended to wipe her eyes with a handkerchief, looking extremely humiliated.
When Zhao Quan heard this, he realized that it hadn't been done...
He still didn't give up and asked again, "Why, is it that my uncle disagrees, or is it that Princess Chengqian disagrees?"
He frowned, "It's just an errand for the Salt Road, and your family can get it done with just a word. How stingy!"
Shangguan Chaolu agreed deeply. She complained, "I don't know what's wrong with my brother. Could it be that he's been possessed by a ghost and actually resigned from his position?"
She still remembered what to say and what not to say. For example, although she knew something about the matter between Shangguan Shu and Huai'an, she must not let Zhao Quan know.
Zhao Quan, hearing the words, took it for granted and touched his chin. "As a man, there's nothing he wouldn't do for a woman. Princess Chengqian is such a beautiful woman, it's normal that she's so enchanted that my uncle is completely lost!"
Shangguan Chaolu noticed something was wrong with Zhao Quan's tone, so she stared at him warily, "Are you also thinking about that vixen?"
Zhao Quan seemed to have been hit on the heartstrings. He was furious and raised his voice. "What nonsense are you talking about? How can you say such nonsense? If this gets out, our whole family will be finished!"
"To desecrate the princess of this dynasty is such a grave sin!"
Shangguan Chaolu looked at him with disdain and rolled her eyes at Zhao Quan. "She's not the only princess of the Great Chu State. Don't be so cocky. Things change over time. Although Sister Huai'an's family background isn't as good as hers, she's a noble person and has given birth to two spiritual children. Her life is much better than hers!"
Zhao Quan didn't comment, but said: "I don't know whether she has a good fate or not, but now that you have offended Princess Chengqian, my job is at stake..."
Shangguan Chaolu was truly a love-brained person. Even so, she still felt that she had let Zhao Quan down. She frowned and said, "Don't worry, I'll go to the palace and beg Sister Huai'an later. Don't worry, I can't get away with this mission!"
As soon as Shangguan Chaolu finished speaking, someone came from the old princess's side to call them over.
The old princess loved to worship Buddha. She had just returned from a Buddhist temple where she had been fasting for two months. As she entered the door, she saw the servants wrapping Cui'er in a straw mat and about to throw her into a mass grave.
The old princess suddenly became furious. She had fasted for two months and worked so hard to eliminate the sins, but now all of them had been wiped out by her?
The old princess sat cross-legged in the inner room, howling, "What sin have I committed? Yan'er died young, and Quan'er was originally an ambitious man, but he married such a wife and led my son astray!"
"Now countless people are carrying her out... She's not afraid, but poor Quan'er, if people knew about this, her career would be ruined!"
Mrs. Feng, who was standing nearby, quickly advised, "Princess, please keep your voice down. No one knew what was going on. Are you afraid that no one will know if you shout?"
When the old princess heard this, she listened to the advice and shut up.
But I feel really uncomfortable...
The old Prince Jing was the great-uncle of Emperor Jianxi. Although he had the title of lord, he had long since fallen out of favor.
The capital is the place where people flatter the powerful and bully the weak. The Jing Prince's Mansion was as glorious as it was now. It's not a big deal if it's lonely. What's important is that the Jing Prince's Mansion has been unable to make ends meet for a long time, and her dowry has been lost a long time ago. Fortunately, Shangguan Chaolu is a love-brained person, and she was willing to use her dowry to fill the hole in the Jing Prince's Mansion. But as a concubine's daughter, her dowry is limited after all!
Over the past ten years, Shangguan Chaolu's dowry has been almost spent.
If Zhao Quan can get the lucrative job on the salt road, Prince Jing's Mansion can still hold on!
Thinking of this, the old princess couldn't help but shed a few more tears, "Zhu'er, how could Yan'er be so confused? If he hadn't made such a big mistake, how could he have offended Queen Xiaomin? He has made it so difficult for our Jingwang Mansion to recover forever!"
Mother Feng sighed upon hearing this. "Second Master was also implicated by First Master. He was already serving as the head guard in the palace at such a young age, and his future was immeasurable. But then something like that happened... Second Master is like this now. I think he feels that his career is hopeless and has given up on himself."
The old princess was originally angry with Zhao Quan, but upon hearing these words, she felt distressed. She lamented, "What a sin! It's all a sin!"
"Mother!"
Shangguan Chaolu and Zhao Quan are here.
The old princess asked Shangguan Chaolu a question with a cold face. Shangguan Chaolu exaggerated and said that the girl was a bitch who seduced Zhao Quan. At this critical moment in Zhao Quan's career, she had no choice but to get rid of that little bitch.
The old princess knew that Shangguan Chaolu was jealous again, but she was still useful to him now. She would deal with her as soon as Quan'er got the official position!
Fortunately, when she came down from the mountain, she heard that something happened in their Zhenguo Mansion and her powerful elder brother was dismissed from office. God is really merciful. If Shangguan Shu had always been in power, their Jingwang Mansion would have to endure Shangguan Chaolu's bullying.
Once Quan'er's matter is settled, the Prince Jing's Mansion will be able to hold its head high. Who knows, by then they can get a well-educated and well-mannered daughter-in-law!
The old princess had beautiful thoughts, and her anger subsided a bit.
She then asked Shangguan Zhaolu, "Have you gone back to ask about Quan'er's matter?"
Shangguan Chaolu didn't dare to say that she was rejected, so she simply lied, "My daughter-in-law was too busy this morning and hasn't gone yet! When she's done, I'll go back to her parents' home to visit."
The old princess frowned, "You should pay more attention to Quan'er. If he is honored, it will bring you honor, right?"
Shangguan Chaolu agreed with it and nodded repeatedly.
Shangguan Chaolu left the old princess and entered the palace.
