As for Bai Ri's help, it was only because Steward Ye Zhen was capable, and the Marquis's mansion needed a person in charge who could keep the mansion stable.
Ye Zhen currently has no one to rely on but the protection of the Marquis of Zhongyong.
If Marquis Zhongyong finds out that Ye Zhen was involved in Wu Da's affairs, given his personality, he will inevitably be dissatisfied with Ye Zhen. Without Marquis Zhongyong as his support, Ye Zhen will find it difficult to manage the household.
Xie Tingzhou did not want any trouble to break out in his household.
If there's anything else, it's that he's disliked Ye Wantang since childhood, and now that he knows she's a fake, yet she's still so arrogant, so he's taking this opportunity to teach her a lesson.
Xie Tingzhou was taken aback when he realized that he had come up with so many reasons.
Ye Zhen, sitting opposite her, was oblivious to this, lost in her own thoughts.
No wonder Xie Yunzhou survived after falsely claiming credit in his previous life; the enemy country must have known he wasn't a real spy at all.
Furthermore, Xie Tingzhou is far too shrewd. He can see through many things even if she doesn't say them. In the future, unless absolutely necessary, try not to lie to this person.
After thinking about Xie Tingzhou, she then considered Yin Jiuniang's behavior and style, trying to deduce where she might be hiding after returning to Dayuan...
"master."
Xing Ze's voice interrupted their thoughts, "The General's Mansion has thrown out an injured maidservant..."
Ye Wantang has not yet won over the hearts of everyone in the General's Mansion. If she were to severely punish the maidservant, it would inevitably chill people's hearts.
Ye Zhengqing used this as a warning, but Ye Wantang had never been so frustrated. He couldn't vent his anger without punishing her, and in the end, he spared the maid's legs.
However, after being given twenty lashes, she was expelled from the general's mansion, and Xing Ze and Fu Guang took her in.
"Most of the maids in the General's Mansion are from the Red Tassel Army back then. They are all heroines who have been on the battlefield. Ye Wantang just throws them away like that. It's too humiliating."
The Red Tassel Army was a women's army formed by Ye Jinghong, and they had fought many victories alongside her.
Xing Ze greatly admired them, but the Red Tassel Army was wiped out after Ye Jinghong died in battle, leaving only these few by Ye Wantang's side.
Ye Wantang, however, did not appreciate it.
"I don't know what the Emperor's taste was, choosing such a person as the Crown Princess. She's not worthy of him at all..."
She is not worthy of our master.
Realizing what he was about to say, Fu Guang quickly nudged his arm, signaling him to shut up.
Xing Ze also realized that Ye Zhen was still there, and he pursed his lips tightly.
His reaction caused a slight glint in Ye Zhen's eyes.
Xing Ze seemed to have little respect for the emperor and felt indignant on behalf of the crown prince...
