She was also a victim of this scam, and if word got out, she would lose face terribly!
People must be looking at her strangely and whispering about her—so unrestrained, so brazen in front of her son, shameless!!!
Actually, she herself doesn't mind this, but it's not just her problem. Usually, this kind of thing would be attributed to her family's improper upbringing of their daughter.
She felt that her younger brothers, Jiaheng and Eshuo, probably didn't have the capacity to withstand the harsh looks and comments from others.
Fortunately, she inquired and found that there was no discussion about her and the Fourth Prince outside. Furthermore, she observed the Fourth Prince's expression and noticed that his dark and angry face actually contained a hint of embarrassment and awkwardness.
She thought about it for a while and felt that soon, after the Fourth Master's embarrassment and awkwardness had subsided, she and Xuan'er would definitely no longer be the target of his anger.
Further investigation confirmed her suspicions: what Xuan'er said to the emperor when they were alone was not leaked out.
Otherwise, why would I be lecturing her endlessly? I would have ignored her completely long ago!
Just as Jiaming had predicted, after the Fourth Master reprimanded her, he didn't set foot in Peach Courtyard for several days, as if he wanted to give you and your son a good cold shoulder and teach you a lesson.
Hongtao was quite worried about Jiaming and the young master, so she hurriedly offered a suggestion: "Master, the master hasn't come for a long time. Why don't you make some delicious food yourself and have Xiao Hezi send it to the master?"
"Since Master likes your vegetarian dishes so much, perhaps he won't be angry anymore and will come to see you and the young master again."
She didn't know why the Fourth Master suddenly turned hostile towards his master and young master, but she felt that doing so might salvage something.
Jiaming understood Hongtao's purpose in suggesting this, but she still firmly shook her head, "No need!"
Anyway, before long, as time goes by, the master's embarrassment and annoyance will gradually disappear. Why should she go up to him now and remind him of the embarrassing things he experienced with the emperor because of Hongxuan's terrible behavior?
Furthermore, she squinted, recalling the gloating looks and veiled mockery she received from the Fujin and others when she went to the main courtyard to pay her respects that morning.
Jiaming said she wasn't angry at all.
In fact, she felt a sense of relief.
After all, compared to being gloated over and subtly mocked, the cold, sharp, and even venomous glances that Hongxuan received because he was favored by the master, and even by the masters, empresses and princes in the palace were much more reassuring!
