Nanny Zhang has followed Marquis Huayang for many years and is deeply trusted by him.
Xue lowered her eyes and said nothing. She knew that Marquis Huayang had already found out that she was involved in all these events.
She felt as if a stone had fallen from her heart. This was all expected. No matter how covertly she acted, clues would be left behind. And the Marquis of Huayang was not able to be granted the title just by brute force.
"In a few days, the Marquis will promote Aunt Yue to a noble concubine."
Marquis Huayang left after saying this.
A few minutes later, Xue's tears flowed silently. Nanny Kong was very worried and advised, "Madam, the Marquis still cares about the old relationship. You must not be depressed. You have worked hard for the Marquis's mansion for many years. The Marquis had fought for many years. If it weren't for you taking care of the family from behind, how could he have pursued his career with peace of mind? When the Marquis is in a good mood, the power of the family will soon come to you."
Back when the Marquis was only a centurion, Madam Hua used filial piety to pressure Xue and forced the Hua family to live in the mansion. She also treated Xue harshly. Xue was afraid that the Marquis would be known as unfilial, so she endured it and did her best to manage the large family. It was not until the Madam passed away, her husband was conferred the title of Marquis, and she gave birth to a legitimate son that she began to have hope in life.
She was certain that Marquis Huayang would not touch her. This was what he owed her, so she dared to act recklessly.
But this time, when she heard that Aunt Yue was promoted to a noble concubine, her heart was still tightly gripped and she felt great pain.
.......
When Tu Yufan heard that Aunt Yue wanted to promote her to be a concubine, he almost said no.
This situation didn't happen in the plot at all. Aunt Yue was already arrogant enough. If she was promoted to a noble concubine, wouldn't she be as strong as the sky and the sun?
Looking at Aunt Yue's smug and arrogant smile, Tu Yufan remained silent, with a bad feeling lingering in his heart.
Sure enough, after a few days, Aunt Yue made a joke.
Aunt Yue went to the Cosmetics Pavilion to buy something and ran into Yuexue Junyu. She stepped forward and said that Tu Yufan had admired her for a long time and that the two families could be considered relatives. She also said that Tu Yufan had already achieved fame and could inherit the title, and that he and Junyu were a match made in heaven.
When nobles in the capital city wanted to marry someone from a wealthy family, the two families would discuss it and then the man would go to the woman's house to propose marriage through a matchmaker. No concubine would go directly to the woman to propose this.
The maidservant beside Yue Xuejun was furious and said, "What kind of toad dares to covet Junjun."
Aunt Yue even stretched out her hand to pull Yue Xuejun, muttering that she was just the daughter of the prince's concubine and she dared to look down on Tu Yufan.
Yue Xuejun was so ashamed and angry that she stopped talking and said that she would rather marry a dog than Tu Yufan.
When Tu Yufan got the news, he almost spit out his tea.
Now, his already bad reputation has been further damaged.
Marquis Huayang came directly to apologize, and King Kang was helpless. Thinking that his legitimate son died to save him, he did not blame him too much, but only asked him to discipline his concubine well.
Aunt Yue's plan to be promoted to a noble concubine was completely ruined.
Tu Yufan didn't care about his reputation, and it was a good thing that Aunt Yue was under house arrest.
Imperial Palace Huaxiang Hall
Liu Zhuling was petting a cat in the yard when she heard this from her personal maid. She remembered the anger she had suffered when she was with Tu Yufan last time, and a gloating smile appeared on her face.
"Hehe, I'm afraid no noble lady in the capital would dare to marry Hua Erzi."
"However, I have seen that he behaves like a gentleman, and his character is not as dissolute as everyone says. I don't know why he has such a reputation." She raised the corners of her mouth, and her smart eyes were smiling. "But he never tells the truth. He obviously passed the exam, but he lied to me that he failed, and even said that I was too talkative. He deserved that he couldn't get married."
The maid's mouth twitched.
"Your Highness, please don't let the Queen hear it, otherwise she will punish you to write the female rules again."
