After getting married, Yan Shiyue never left the house except for the day he returned to his parents' home.
In fact, when Huo Qijing was not at home, she still had strong self-control. After her hand healed, she started practicing calligraphy again.
Linlang came in and asked, "Master, the human traffickers have brought all the people here. Can you go out and take a look?"
"No need," Yan Shiyue said directly, "Just pick it yourself."
Linlang stood there hesitantly, wanting to ask a few more words.
Her problem was that she was too timid. She didn't dare to make decisions on many things, fearing that she would not be able to take responsibility if something went wrong. Yan Shiyue put down her pen and waved, "Aunt, come here."
Linlang came over and said, "Please sit down."
Linlang bowed before sitting down.
Yan Shiyue said: "I have always wanted to talk to you about this. As for me, I will not care about these trivial matters before or after marriage. You don't have to care about the master and servants, or the rules of other families. I am different from other masters, and our family does not have to care about other families."
Linlang wanted to get up, so she held her shoulder and said, "My way is, I'll give you this task and you'll be fully responsible. If you can't do it well and the degree is above a certain line, I'll ask you to change it. If it's below a certain line, I'll replace you with someone who can do it well. But I won't do it myself just because you can't do it well."
...
...
"Don't be afraid of taking responsibility. Let me tell you the truth. Even if the person you recruited killed me, as long as you were not perfunctory in the recruitment process, you did not commit any minor mistakes. And as long as you did not have any ulterior motives and did not join another employer, you did not commit any major mistakes... As for spies spying on you, you can prevent them if you can, but forget about it if you can't. You don't have to worry about it too much."
She pressed her again: "I'll give you an example, just listen to it, there's no other meaning. Be bolder. If I tell you to manage, just do it. My bottom line is loyalty and righteousness, both of which are easy to achieve. Let me give you another example. If you love money, just tell me directly, and I'll give you what I can. But if you secretly covet it, just pray that I don't find out."
"And my tolerance is that if you, Linlang, don't like doing this, you can choose to do something you like. I really don't care. I will find someone else to do it."
She looked at her: "So, are you willing to do it?"
Linlang was silent for a while, then stood up and bowed: "I am willing."
"Okay," she waved her hand, "then go ahead."
Linlang went out.
Ding Xiaoyan came in, touched his nose, and chuckled: "I overheard a few words by accident, I didn't mean it." He asked: "Master, don't you want to teach me?"
"No," Yan Shiyue said, "I think you did a good job."
Ding Xiaoyan asked with a smile: "How do we deal with the posts that come to our door now?"
Yan Shiyue said, "When Qu Sinian arrives, ask him to take a look and sort out what needs to be dealt with and what doesn't. By the way, learn from him and remember the relationships in the capital. Oh, by the way," she said to the air, "someone come!"
A shadow guard jumped in and bowed.
Yan Shiyue said: "I remember the last time I went to Qinzhou, there was a person with a very good brain who could remember many people's relatives. What was his name?"
The shadow guard whispered, "My name is Heng Shiqi."
"Oh, yes, it's you." Yan Shiyue said, "Are you willing to follow Xiaoyan and be the housekeeper?"
Heng Shiqi kowtowed hurriedly and said, "I am willing."
She pointed to the mask, Heng Shiqi pulled it down, and Yan Shiyue exclaimed... There are really hidden dragons and crouching tigers among the Shadow Guards and the Dragon Guards, and Heng Shiqi also looks like a young and handsome guy.
She asked, "What's your last name?"
Heng Shiqi bowed and said, "No surname."
"Then let's take the surname Tang. From now on, you will be called Tang Xiaoying. You will follow Xiaoyan and mainly remember the interpersonal relationships in the capital. When Xiaoyan is out, you will support the family and be the second housekeeper, right?"
Tang Xiaoying said: "Yes."
"Okay," Yan Shiyue said, "Go tell your boss."
She just lowered her head and went about her business.
The movements of the Duke Rong's Mansion have always attracted everyone's attention, so everyone heard that the Duke's Mansion bought a few maids and servants, as well as a few cooks and nannies.
The elders in the court were very pleased.
The painting style is finally normal! It looks like a normal life.
Jin Heqiao said, "As for this woman, she should get married sooner. After marriage, the couple will live in harmony and worry about all the household matters. Naturally, she will not have the energy to deal with all those messy things."
Guangcheng Bo said with a fake smile: "Duke Rong is not like Lord Jin. He has no concubines or maids. What matters at home do you need to worry about?"
Nowadays, the two of them are just about to openly fall out with each other, and it is normal for them to argue with each other for no reason.
Lin Fujian said calmly: "Our Prime Minister is not someone who is trapped in the backyard. The reason why he didn't go out... is probably because he hasn't recovered yet."
"Mr. Lin has a high opinion of the Prime Minister."
Lin Fujian chuckled, "She can handle any situation... People who look down on her," he glanced at Jin Heqiao meaningfully, "I'm afraid they'll all regret it now."
Jin Heqiao's face darkened.
At this time, someone rode up on horseback, bowed to Lin Fujian and said, "Your Highness, please have a chat with Elder Lin."
Lin Fujian's expression changed slightly, but he immediately said, "Lead the way."
Looking at Lin Fujian's back, Jin Heqiao sneered, then got on the carriage and bowed: "I'll go first."
Lin Fujian was led up to the Haina Tower. When he entered the private room, he saw the Fourth Prince sitting inside. Lin Fujian bowed and said, "Fourth Master."
The Fourth Prince nodded and asked someone to serve tea. After everyone left, he said, "I have something on hand and would like to ask the Lord a few questions."
Lin Fujian frowned slightly.
After the Fourth Prince entered the Ministry of Justice, he seemed very stubborn and tough. Although most of the cases he handled were related to the Jin Party, it did not necessarily mean that he was close to him.
However, if he was really stubborn, he would not have been invited here for tea, but would have been summoned according to the law.
Lin Fujian's mind raced as he asked, "What's going on?"
The fourth prince asked, "I wonder if Elder Lin knows a man named Zhou Xun?"
“I don’t know him.”
"Then, what about Xu Wanyang?"
Lin Fujian raised his eyebrows. He said, "I have heard of this person. Because she once had a conflict with the Duke, I paid attention to her."
"Have you seen the elder?"
"No, I just heard that she was a very beautiful woman from Qinzhou."
The fourth prince nodded and said, "Then you know, elder, this person is actually a man dressed as a woman. He is a gangster, a flower thief. Someone hired him with a large sum of money, hoping to get close to Fu Yan and ruin his reputation. But Fu Yan had already noticed it, so he ordered his shadow guard to act as a substitute and staged a play to capture this thief..."
He paused, looked up at him and said, "He confessed that it was the elder who ordered it."
Lin Fujian was shocked: "Absolutely not!" He stood up and bowed: "Fourth Master, I know nothing about this!"
