Yuanyue walked in with a lunch box in her hand.
"Princess, the sobering soup is ready." Yuanyue put the food box on the table and opened it gently.
"Yuanyue, take Guyu out more tomorrow. If you meet anyone asking about something, talk to them. Just say something that will negatively impact the relationship between the prince and me. Especially regarding what happened tonight, make sure everyone thinks that the prince beat and scolded me."
Yuan Yue opened her eyes wide and looked at Meng Qi, then turned to look at Yuan Dong.
"You all have to work harder tonight and keep a close eye on the yard. We have to use this opportunity to clean up Jing'an Garden first. Even if we can't get rid of all those messes, we have to make sure they don't dare to come here and disgust me again."
Yuandong and Yuanyue left the inner room. Yuanyue tugged at Yuandong's sleeve and said, "Sister, how did the princess know that the prince would beat and scold her tonight? Is it true?"
Yuan Dong sighed and went to the west room to tell the others what Meng Qi had just arranged. Everyone nodded in agreement, as if facing a formidable enemy, even though they didn't know what Meng Qi meant.
"Okay, everyone knows their responsibilities. Keep a close eye on them tonight. Go ahead."
After watching everyone leave the room, Yuandong pulled Yuanyue over to sit down and told her some of the things Meng Qi had told her. Yuanyue had never heard of these words before and had no idea how things were going on. She was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth for a long time.
Then he sighed, "It's so hard being a princess."
Yuan Dong nodded. "Yes, it's the palace, and it's the palace. There are some things that can't be known to others. We must help the princess share the burden."
Yuanyue hummed, "I understand. Tomorrow I'll take Guyu to the laundry room to get some clothes, then go to the kitchen to order some more heat-clearing soup, and then go to the storeroom to find two sets of tea bowls."
When Yuan Dong heard her mention the kitchen, he asked, "Have you found out who the new kitchen manager is?"
Yuan Yue chuckled, "I haven't had time to report to the princess yet. The original one was replaced by Concubine Lin, but I didn't expect three people to come in at once."
"Three?"
"Well, Concubine Lin originally wanted to arrange for another person of her own to go in, but she didn't expect that Concubine Wu also wanted to arrange someone, and even Concubine Li had the same idea."
"Concubine Li? How could she be?" Yuan Dong was very surprised. If Lin and Wu were the type who were competitive and aggressive, Li had always been steady and would not compete with them. She was like a balance device in the palace and never did anything to stand out.
"Yes, I also heard Madam Hai muttering. She didn't expect Concubine Li to join in the fun."
"And what happened next?"
"Concubine Lin saw the situation and felt it was not appropriate to force her own people to leave. So she asked Madam Hai to go. After a discussion, they decided to replace everyone else and promoted the former Second-Class Lady to the position of Manager."
"Have you reported this matter to the princess?" Yuan Dong asked.
"Not yet. The final result is what I just heard from Madam Hai when she was mumbling about Concubine Li."
"You can ask again tomorrow about the situation of the new kitchen manager."
Yuan Yue nodded. "That's what I thought too. From the looks of it, this person shouldn't belong to those people. Could he be Aunt Bai's person?"
"She doesn't have that ability yet. After finding out, tell the princess everything."
The two maids were chatting when they heard the voice of a maid outside, saying that the prince had returned.
Yuandong hurried into the east room, while Yuanyue lifted the cotton curtain, pushed open the door, and saw Song Chengze walking in with a gloomy face.
