After Luo Shenyuan came back, the servant who served in the study came over and told him about this.
"He sent a maid?" Luo Shenyuan was quite calm. Luo Chengzhang had nothing to do in Beijing and he had nothing to do, but he actually dared to interfere with him.
"They sent a maid, her name is Hua Rong... Oh no, her name is Xiao Rong."
"Has the Madam known?" Luo Shenyuan asked as he took off his cloak and walked into the yard. "Did she say anything?"
"Madam, she's quite a nice person. She called Miss Xiao Rong over and gave her the name Hua Rong. Then she never came back. I asked around and found out that Madam asked her to work in the kitchen, washing dishes..."
Luo Shenyuan smiled. She was indeed interesting.
"Sir, what do you think we should do about this matter? After all, she is a girl sent by the master..."
Luo Shenyuan said calmly, "Madam is in charge of everything in this house. Whatever she says is the truth. You don't need to ask me." He paused and said, "Next time someone sends a maid, tell Madam. Got it?"
Seeing that Lord Luo seemed to be in a good mood, the servant immediately nodded in agreement. Nothing was more important than Lord Luo's good mood. When Lord Luo was in a good mood, their days as servants would be more enjoyable.
Fortunately, the Madam has returned. During the days she was away, Lord Luo had a cold expression on his face. They stood in the room, not daring to say a word, as if they were a cicada in fear. The slightest mistake could result in a beating, and everyone was in a state of panic.
Lin Hairu also heard about Xiao Rong's story, and laughed so hard that she held her stomach for a long time.
She was wrong. She thought Yining would be troubled by this.
Luo Chengzhang was furious, but there was nothing he could do. If he had just sent a concubine over, Luo Yining wouldn't have dared to punish him by sending him to the kitchen. But his son would definitely have sent him back, and he wouldn't have been able to even get through the door.
Forget it, let's see if that girl can make something of herself in the kitchen.
As November arrived, the weather grew even colder. Yi Ning received a reply from Wei Ling. He was planning to marry Duke Xu's younger sister and had asked Yi Ning to return home immediately. The wedding had been put on hold a few days ago because of Yi Ning's situation, and these two days were the perfect time to get married. He wanted Yi Ning to go, and he also wanted to find out what was going on with Lu Jiaxue.
Yi Ning closed the letter and prepared to tell Luo Shenyuan about this when he came back.
When her third brother returned, she heard from Lin Yong that Luo Shenyuan had been scolded by the censor in the court.
The reason was exactly what Yi Ning had heard from Lu Jiaxue, saying that Luo Shenyuan had connections with Zeng Yingkun and was collaborating with the enemy and selling out the country.
The emperor appreciated Luo Shenyuan's talent and felt that the accusation of him collaborating with the enemy was absurd. However, he was no match for the energetic censors, and was so annoyed by them that he left early and summoned Luo Shenyuan to the Southern Study to speak alone, suggesting that he should deal with this matter as soon as possible, after all, people's words could be feared.
When Luo Shenyuan came back, Yining asked him about this matter, and he did not deny it.
"The censors are always scolding. Even if they don't scold me here, they will scold that one." He sneered.
This principle is easy to understand. Luo Shenyuan was in the limelight, so many people were watching him. Add to that the deliberate manipulation by some, and the criticism intensified.
Luo Shenyuan felt that the heat was almost on, and it was time to strike back. Since he was being scolded, he would wait until the scolding reached its peak before speaking out.
Yining watched him playing chess, and suddenly he closed his eyes, as if he was thinking about something.
She remembered that she was now his legally wedded wife, and she stood up to rub his temple. Why were his eyebrows so thick...? His nose was also very straight, his upper lip was thin, and his lower lip was thick. What a heartless look.
Luo Shenyuan opened his eyes suddenly and saw her leaning forward like a little girl, her waistline very obvious. He stood up, took her hand and said, "No, I'm not tired. I'm just thinking about something."
After all, that little bit of strength wasn't enough to tickle him.
He said it was not necessary and Yi Ning retreated to avoid trouble. Is the third brother thinking about Zeng Yingkun? In fact, Yi Ning was not concerned about Zeng Yingkun. She was more concerned about the influence of Xu Wei on the third brother.
Yi Ning didn't want to disturb him, so after a while she asked, "Third brother, do you respect your teacher, Master Xu?"
Yi Ning wanted to know what his attitude towards Xu Wei was, why he had stood by him and remained indifferent. Was it just to endure and seek revenge? That wouldn't make others hate him so much, after all, everyone knew that he was Xu Wei's most valued student.
"Xu Wei is a very clever man," Luo Shenyuan said after a moment's pause. He knew what Xu Wei was thinking. Yang Ling's methods were ridiculous, trying to defeat those two. Xu Wei really wanted to push Yang Ling to the top, unless all obstacles were removed. He wanted to see how capable Xu Wei was.
As expected of the future Prime Minister, he speaks with absolute confidence.
Yi Ning went to ask the maid to order the dishes.
When Yining came back, he saw him sitting on the armchair playing chess with him.
Luo Shenyuan was mostly distant and difficult to get along with. He was a bit more affectionate with her, though. But after observing her for a while, you'll find he's actually quite interesting. The last time Yi Ning saw Yang Ling, he invited him out for a drink, and he agreed. That day, he came back reeking of alcohol. He wanted to sleep but didn't want to sting her, and he wanted to shower but it was cold. He paced back and forth for a long time, hesitating before finally deciding to take a shower.
Therefore, Yining found his third brother somewhat amusing.
Yi Ning walked over and looked at the chessboard for a while before asking him, "Third brother, why are you playing chess with yourself? Why don't I play with you?"
Luo Shenyuan looked up at her and said slowly, "Are you sure you can beat me?"
Yi Ning smiled flatteringly and said, "If you can't beat me, just give way to me. Didn't you always give way to me when I was a kid?"
