Chapter 845: Still Need to Do Good
Before evening of that day, Fu Zhaoning had already asked Eleven to collect all the banknotes.
Even the Seventh Princess did not dare to refuse.
After giving them the three thousand taels, these people all felt as if they had lost all their vitality. They had lost their face and money, and they were worried and frightened, not knowing whether anything would happen to them in the future.
What if Princess Jun goes back and tells Prince Jun about this, and Prince Jun causes trouble for their family again?
Especially Fourth Miss Lin. After she went back and heard her eldest and second sisters talking about Chen Haobing, she realized that they looked down on this Princess Bingyu.
Her father and her brother were also speculating on why Prince Qiong stayed in the capital. They said that no matter what the reason was, it was not a good thing for the Emperor to disregard the rules and keep Prince Qiong in the capital. They all said that there would definitely be some trouble in the future.
Prince Qiong could possibly cause some trouble, let alone his daughter born out of wedlock?
The implication was that Prince Qiong was doing something wrong, as he asked for the title of princess for a daughter born to a concubine who had not done anything outstanding.
It's a bit foolish that the emperor could agree to this.
Of course, they were discussing this quietly at home; they couldn't let others hear them saying something wrong about the emperor.
But Miss Lin Si happened to hear it.
I also heard her brother say, "It seems that Princess Bingyu invited Xiao Si and a few other girls to the palace today. I wonder what they talked about."
"It's okay, let your fourth sister go. She can't do anything. Can she be dragged into doing something bad by a little girl who has been on the run for several years?"
When Miss Lin Si heard this, she felt like her heart was about to explode.
Isn't she being dragged into this?
Did she offend Princess Jun, and was she considered to have done something wrong? But she was jealous of Fu Zhaoning.
At this time, Fourth Miss Lin suddenly remembered that when she spoke ill of Princess Jun to her elder and second sisters last year, they both scolded her and told her not to be stupid, saying that Princess Jun's position was already secure and no other girl could have any thoughts about it.
Why did she forget about it as soon as she saw Fu Zhaoning today?
Miss Lin Si regretted it deeply.
She had already handed over the three thousand taels and did not dare to tell her family about this matter. Now she just hoped that Fu Zhaoning would forget about her after taking the banknote.
She has realized today that Fu Zhaoning is too arrogant. That must be because she is spoiled by Prince Jun. Since Prince Jun can spoil her so much, she definitely has no chance.
Besides, if the Seventh Princess couldn’t win, what chance would she have?
Thinking of this, Miss Lin Si was worried and jealous of Fu Zhaoning. Her heart was in great pain and she fell ill the next day.
After Fu Zhaoning received the banknotes, he had someone deliver them directly to Fang Dafu.
The Fang family also donated a batch of supplies, and she didn't want them to spend all the money.
But after Dong Huanzhi returned, he was in a terrible mood.
He thought of his master's angry scolding of him, as well as the tone and look in Fu Zhaoning's eyes when he spoke to him before leaving, and felt very uncomfortable.
The master must be really angry. He also knows that if he doesn't handle the matter of the medicinal materials this time, the junior sister will probably not regard him as a senior brother anymore.
He felt heavy and a little painful in his heart.
He also cares about his junior sister very much, but he thinks that his junior sister has a husband as powerful as Prince Jun, is favored by her master, and has superb medical skills. Now her parents are back, and the great Shen family is her support.
Dong Huanzhi felt that the junior sister had so much, but Chen Haobing seemed to have nothing.
When he rescued them and their daughter a few years ago, Chen Haobing was still a skinny little girl. She has been raised by him in the past few years, and he almost treats Chen Haobing as his own daughter.
Although she has recognized her biological father now, that father may not be that reliable, so Dong Huanzhi is still a little worried.
After thinking about it, he decided to go to the small house in the alley behind to find Chen Haobing.
Chen Haobing hadn't seen him these past few days. Every time he came, the servants would say that the princess was not there.
When he came today, Chen Haobing was actually there and was willing to see him.
After entering the house and going to the front hall, Mrs. Chen was also there.
The mother and daughter looked at him at the same time, their eyes were red and they looked pitiful. Chen Haobing burst into tears as soon as she saw him.
"Uncle Dong!"
She rushed towards Dong Huanzhi, grabbed his sleeves with both hands, and sobbed, "You're here!"
He had been here so many times before, but he was never seen here. It’s not like he had never been here before.
But Dong Huanzhi didn't have the heart to say it out loud. He felt really distressed seeing Chen Haobing like this.
"What's wrong? What happened? Didn't King Qiong help you?"
Speaking of King Qiong, Chen Haobing felt even more aggrieved.
Because today, as soon as Prince Qiong returned, he asked her what happened. He heard her talk about Fu Zhaoning's arrogance and also heard that she was slapped in the face. Her biological father, he actually!
He was actually strangely excited and blurted out, "Princess Jun is so hot?"
That sentence instantly made Chen Haobing's heart sink. It didn't sound like a good thing!
Then King Qiong asked her to go home first, as it was not convenient for her to stay in the palace all the time. Does this count as driving her out?
He didn't even mention helping her regain her face, let alone giving her money.
"Uncle Dong, I understand. You are still the best to me." Chen Haobing raised his head and looked at Dong Huanzhi with tearful eyes, his face full of admiration.
When she was like this before, Dong Huanzhi would treat her with all his heart.
"Tell me, what happened?" Dong Huanzhi felt a little uncomfortable.
In the past, he had some feelings for Madam Chen, so he coaxed Chen Haobing in front of her, giving her the feeling of being a "family of three", but now that Prince Qiong has recognized them, he feels a little embarrassed.
"I'm fine, Uncle Dong. I just want to ask you for help with something. You must help me."
Chen Haobing had already discussed this with her mother when she came back. It was not a good idea to provoke Dong Huanzhi to stand up for her, but she could ask him to do something.
"What is it? Tell me, as long as I can help."
"I heard about the disaster victims. I have just been named a princess, but no one knows me, so I want to do something bigger so that everyone in the capital can recognize me."
"Well, you're right to think so."
"After thinking it over, I think doing something for the disaster victims can be considered as doing good deeds. Although I have my own purpose, it's not a bad thing, right?"
"Doing good is certainly a good thing." Dong Huanzhi felt a little relieved when he heard her say that.
"I want to buy some medicinal herbs and send them to Zhecheng. The victims must be in urgent need of them. So, can you help me by selling the herbs from the Medicine Alliance to me on credit? I am now a county lord, and I will definitely be able to pay you back."
