"But letting him jump around like this is really annoying, isn't it?"
The servants around Hesheli had their share of resentment over the years. Despite being servants of the Fujin (principal wife), they were treated with less respect in the household than servants of a concubine.
To be honest, I'm still upset and have some unresolved issues in my heart!
After hearing what the nanny said, Hesheli understood what her companion meant. It was because she had been too weak all these years. She couldn't say she was sorry, but she felt a little sad.
"Granny, you decide what to do! Don't go too far. After all, he's the master's son, and the master is probably watching! You can do things that are harmless, but if you go too far, I won't be able to protect you."
The old woman was a little embarrassed after hearing this: "I was just saying. In the current situation, it's best for us to be honest and talk about it later."
There's plenty of time ahead!
Hearing what the nanny said, Hesheli said, "Nanny, you have worked so hard all these years following me from the Hesheli family to the Niohuru family."
The Hesheli clan once enjoyed great power and prestige. Her sister was the former empress, and before she was married, Mafa was a regent minister. With her sister being the empress, the Hesheli family could walk the streets of the capital with their backs straighter than others.
Since entering the Niohuru Mansion, Hesheli was not as powerful as before. Although she still held power, there was not much that could help her, after all, the Niohuru family was not a small or insignificant one.
She herself was living a miserable life, so naturally the people around her were living even worse.
"What are you saying, Madam? I have served you since I was a child. We are grateful for your kindness. It is our blessing. It is not hard work at all."
Hesheli said directly, "Granny, just leave it be. From now on, it's still uncertain whether Concubine Hua in this mansion will survive! You don't need to be too careful in the future. It seems that the Emperor is going to pay more attention to my brother and the others again. You don't need to care what the front courtyard thinks. As long as I don't do anything that gives him a reason to divorce his wife, the front courtyard won't dare to say anything. Just be mindful of the limits, Granny, do whatever you want."
After hearing this, the nanny asked, "Could the master really be so cruel to Concubine Hua?" Having witnessed so many things over the years, the nanny, not knowing the reasons behind it, did not believe that Concubine Hua had simply fallen like that.
Hesheli scoffed, "Who knows!"
"By the way, Granny, as you've heard, the princess from the manor will be arriving in a few days. I have no other requests, but this princess must be treated with utmost respect. Do not offend her. Make sure the servants below are alert, as she is truly someone you cannot afford to offend."
Hesheli knew that Faka felt guilty towards her. He had sent her many things these days, all of them in good condition, but unfortunately, she no longer cared about them.
So as long as you don't provoke Qiu Wen, everything will be easy to talk to.
"Yes, Madam."
Another point is that Empress Hesheli also sent people to investigate the background of this princess from Cangzhou. They didn't find much, but they knew that this princess was a smart person. Furthermore, she was also registered with the Empress. If she wanted to live a comfortable life, she should not provoke such a person.
Why make enemies for no reason? She has no children, so why be a bad person? Besides, this is a thankless task.
In Cangzhou, Qiu Wen packed her things and prepared to leave.
To be honest, Qiu Wen wasn't entirely without emotional turmoil. Although she had expanded her business to many places after arriving in the Qing Dynasty, she had never actually left Cangzhou for various reasons.
Beijing, being the capital of the country, was bound to be the most prosperous place in the Qing Dynasty, so I was naturally excited to go and see it.
"Princess, your servant has packed everything and we can leave tomorrow."
Qiu Wen said, "Well done. By the way, we should come back again and leave some food for the guards."
Qiu Wen couldn't possibly not come back. She knew her own capabilities. If she wanted to make the most of the system, she would naturally have to go to a place with the sea. Besides, although the capital was nice, it was ultimately a place that restricted her.
She came from a wealthy family. The Qiu family was nothing to her; their possessions were nothing compared to hers. But in modern times, even if her family were in business, their wealth would be enough to make people look up to them.
So she knew exactly what she would encounter in the capital. It wasn't that she couldn't adapt to that kind of life, but rather that she felt it was unnecessary. If one could live an easy life, who would want to be like a cross-eyed person all day, constantly thinking about how to scheme against others and living to guard against their schemes?
"Yes, Princess."
After Qiu Wen had made arrangements in Cangzhou, giving all the necessary instructions and making all the necessary arrangements, she headed to the capital the next day with her servants and luggage.
Because of the train, it only took a day. As soon as I got off the train, people sent by Faka came to greet me.
Yunrong arrived at Niu Gulu's residence in a carriage that had been modified several times and was now quite comfortable.
At this time, Faka did not go to work. What was wrong with taking a day off for his daughter?
"Master, the princess is here, she's here."
Although it wasn't the first time Faka had met Qiu Wen, he was still very excited, after all, his daughter had really come back this time.
"Good, good, come on, let's go out."
Although the butler felt it was unnecessary—after all, it's unheard of for an elder to go out to greet a junior—he dared not say anything at this moment.
So Qiu Wen saw Faka not long after she entered the gate.
Qiu Wen stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Greetings, Father."
"Get up, get up, you've finally arrived."
“I’m sorry to have kept you waiting, Father. It’s all my fault.”
