In He Yue's heart, she couldn't be happier that he went to another woman, so that her pressure would be less.
As long as his position remains unchanged and that kid listens to him, he doesn't care about anything else.
However, the people around her obviously didn't think that way. If they knew what Heyue was thinking, they would probably talk to her for a whole day and night, trying to brainwash her.
From the very first day they arrived, Hailan and Chunya were extremely wary of the maids in the room, never allowing Wenju and Tinglan a chance to get close to Thirteen.
Although the two maids always behaved very well and honestly.
And then there's Granny Wang. Ever since she arrived, she's been inquiring about the affairs of the household, saying that the young lady is too young to understand anything. She's been sent by the madam to help the young lady, so she should take care of everything and get the young lady started handling the household affairs as soon as possible.
With Granny Wang around, Heyue wasn't in a hurry about the affairs of the household these past few days, trusting that Granny Wang could handle everything.
In addition, from the second day of her marriage, she was busy going to the palace to pay her respects and was also kept busy by Thirteen, so Heyue didn't have a chance to see Granny Wang at all.
Now that I have some free time, it's time to put this matter on the agenda.
Ignoring Hailan's complaints, Heyue said she wanted to see Granny Wang.
Hailan was furious when she saw that Heyue wouldn't listen. She could only hope that Granny Wang could persuade the princess to treat the master better so that things would be easier for her in the future.
So, she hurriedly told Chunrui to go find Granny Wang, which made Heyue laugh. This girl was even more eager than she was.
Heyue sat down on the couch by the window in the west side room. When she saw Wang Mama hurrying in, she gestured to Hailan to bring out an embroidered stool for Wang Mama to sit on.
After Wang Mama sat down, she looked at Heyue's face and asked with concern, "Did you sleep well last night, Princess?"
Heyue held Wang Mama's hand and nodded with a smile: "I'm fine. I haven't had a chance to ask these past few days. Have you been getting used to things, Mama?"
Granny Wang always treated the princesses in the mansion like her own daughters, especially the youngest, the Seventh Princess, whom she inevitably cared about more. She was more than willing to come with the Seventh Princess this time.
"I'm all well, Granny Wang." Granny Wang nodded with relief, feeling warm inside at He Yue's concern.
Seeing how much the Thirteenth Prince doted on his princess these past few days, Wang Mama, who was originally worried that Heyue would be wronged, was relieved.
"How could you have driven the Thirteenth Prince away last night? What if he gets angry?" Recalling what happened last night, Granny Wang felt a sense of disappointment and began to complain softly.
Heyue touched her nose and lowered her head sheepishly.
Granny Wang sighed, "It's because you're too young and don't understand these things. You're the new Fujin (principal wife), and it's time for you to establish your authority. Since you've just entered the household, you must firmly grasp the Thirteenth Prince's heart and never let it fall into the hands of another woman. Right now, besides the Fujin, there's only one Consort and two Princesses in this mansion. Consort Guarjia entered the mansion earlier, and she used to manage all the affairs of the mansion. The Thirteenth Prince will definitely treat her differently. While you're newly married, and his heart is with you, Princess, you can't be so foolish anymore."
Knowing that Granny Wang meant well, although she disagreed in her heart, she still nodded and replied, "Don't worry, Granny, I know what I'm doing."
To avoid continuing this topic, Heyue inquired about the situation at the manor: "Has Granny found out what's going on at the manor?"
Originally, Heyue could have easily sent one of her maids to handle this matter, but Wang Mama was more concerned about Heyue's affairs than anything else and couldn't stay idle. She insisted on inquiring about it herself, so Heyue let her have her way.
Sure enough, Wang Mama's attention was diverted, and she quickly got down to business.
He Yue then learned that in addition to herself, the primary consort, and her secondary consort, Lady Guarjia, there were two other princesses in the mansion. Both were women bestowed upon her by the thirteenth prince when he was in the palace. One was Lady Fucha, and the other was Lady Shijia. However, they were not usually favored and could be ignored.
"Then why was it only Lady Guarjia who came to pay her respects on the second day of the wedding?" Heyue wondered. They were just two princesses; they wouldn't be so bold as to disregard her status as the primary consort and dare not come to pay their respects.
Granny Wang chuckled awkwardly: "This... it was the Thirteenth Prince's order. He said that the Princess Consort was unwell and that they shouldn't come to disturb her. As for Lady Guarjia, the Prince gave instructions, but she was bold enough to come and pay her respects to the Princess Consort on her own. She probably wanted to take this opportunity to see the Thirteenth Prince. As a result, the Thirteenth Prince got angry when he saw her and then confined her to her quarters."
At this point, Granny Wang beamed with satisfaction.
He Yuehan, no wonder Thirteen treated the Guarjia clan so badly that day, it seems he didn't expect the Guarjia clan to appear.
Besides wanting to see Thirteen, this Guarjia clan member probably also intended to cause trouble for Heyue, but instead of causing trouble, she was ridiculed.
This Thirteenth Princess is really willful. Normally, on the second day after the new Princess enters the household, the concubines should pay their respects to the new Princess, which is also an opportunity for the new Princess to establish her authority. But she skipped it.
Anyone who didn't know better would think that this new princess consort was some kind of fierce and ruthless person.
However, after realizing that he meant well and that he had subsequently punished Guarjia, Heyue let it go.
"Let them come to pay their respects tomorrow." Since we need to establish our authority, we must see them, lest they think we are easy targets and don't take us, their primary wife, seriously.
Granny Wang nodded quickly in agreement.
They couldn't say anything about the Thirteenth Prince's orders, so it was more appropriate for the Princess Consort to give the instructions.
Next came the personnel matters within the manor.
The head of the outer courtyard was Chen Kui, a confidant of the Thirteenth Prince. Chen Kui was in charge of all affairs in the outer courtyard, and He Yue did not need to interfere. However, given the Thirteenth Prince's previous instructions, Chen Kui naturally had to meet the new Princess Consort, express his attitude, and obey He Yue's orders.
