She wanted to ask the Fourth Master to put her down and that she could walk by herself. Her injured part was her hand, not her foot, and Wen Mianmian felt a little embarrassed to hold her like this.
But the Fourth Master refused to do it and instead threatened: "Behave yourself, or I'll throw you down."
Wen Mianmian looked up, somewhat unable to believe that it was the Fourth Master who said this, but seeing her stern face, Wen Mianmian said nothing more and just nestled obediently in the Fourth Master's arms.
Forget it, if he likes to hug me, then let him hug me. At most, I’ll get a few more glares.
It was quite warm to nestle in the Fourth Master's arms, so Wen Mianmian leaned into the Fourth Master's arms and dozed off.
However, when the Fourth Master was about to put her down after leaving the palace, Wen Mianmian actually fell asleep.
The Fourth Master shook his head helplessly, personally sent Wen Mianmian into the carriage, and then stayed in the carriage and let her continue to sleep leaning against him.
Fu Jin got on the carriage with a gloomy face.
The carriage slowly drove towards the mansion. Shancha had been arranged in another carriage, and Su Peisheng also instructed people to take good care of her.
"Fujin, have some water." Nanny Chang poured a cup of warm tea and handed it to Fujin.
The Fourth Lady waved her hand and said, "I don't want to drink."
When Nanny Chang heard that Fu Jin said she didn't want to drink, she put down the teacup.
"Mammy, what do you think is the reason why Eighth Brother's wife attacked Wen?" She only found out about it later, so she was not very clear about the specific reason.
"I don't know either."
When she was in the palace, she also wanted to find someone to inquire about it, but those people were very tight-lipped, or they were as unaware as they were.
It seems that the emperor has ordered that this matter should not be spread outside, otherwise, this matter would have been exposed long ago.
The Fourth Lady was really curious. She knew the Eighth Brother's wife's personality. Although she didn't like Wen, she wouldn't hurt anyone in the palace.
There must be something she doesn't know.
"Try to find out tomorrow. If you can find out something, that would be great. If not, forget it."
She was really curious, and the wound on Wen's hand was obviously caused by a knife.
What kind of thing could cause the eighth brother's wife to take action against the Wen family?
"Yes~"
——
The Eighth Concubine was carried back to the palace. Emperor Kangxi wanted to punish the Eighth Concubine, so he did not let the imperial physician go back with her.
Instead, he called the eighth brother over alone and scolded him, and told him to take good care of his wife in the future. This was the first and last time such a thing happened, and he would never tolerate it if it happened again.
Finally, Emperor Kangxi asked him to reflect on his actions for a few days in his residence and he was not required to enter the palace during this period.
This sentence is undoubtedly a disguised way of putting Mr. Ba under house arrest.
You know, the emperor was not allowed to enter the palace during the New Year. It was obvious that he was very disappointed in him.
When the Eighth Master came out, his face was black. Even the young eunuch who had served him for many years did not dare to say anything. They could only follow the Eighth Master out of the palace and then return to the mansion.
As soon as he returned to the mansion, he did not go to the front yard, but went straight to the main courtyard of the Eighth Lady.
At this moment, the Eighth Lady was lying on the bed, her forehead covered with sweat from the pain. She had never suffered such an injustice in her life.
Not to mention being beaten in front of so many servants. How would she face other people in the future? The Emperor was really going too far.
Now she not only hated Wenghua but also hated the emperor, hating him for humiliating her like this.
After all, she was the wife, and Wen was just a concubine. So what if she died?
If the matter didn't concern herself, she would have let everyone know about it to see how cruel Wen's heart was.
The court doctor has come to see me and left some medicine for my wounds. Now the nanny has helped to apply the medicine.
"Fujin, the medicine has been administered. You should rest first."
Before the Eighth Lady could say anything, the Eighth Master walked in angrily.
"Greetings to the master." The people in the room hurriedly saluted when they saw the Eighth Master.
"Get out of here!" said the Eighth Master angrily.
Lian Ma and others were frightened by what the Eighth Master said. They didn't expect that the Eighth Master would be so angry. They secretly glanced at the Eighth Lady lying on the bed, then quickly stood up and retreated.
When the Eighth Lady saw the Eighth Master's appearance, she frowned and was about to say something when the Eighth Master came over and slapped her on the face which was covered with pockmarks and scars.
She was hit so hard that her face was buried in the pillow.
She looked up at him in disbelief and shouted, "Master, what are you doing? Why are you hitting me?"
"Why do you say that? Don't you know what you did today?"
"Guo Luoluo, I'm telling you, no matter what evil thoughts you have in your heart, you'd better give up as soon as possible. Is Fourth Brother so easy to mess with? Is his concubine so easy to bully? Do you think the suffering you suffered in the past is not enough? You must destroy the Eighth Master's Mansion before you will be satisfied."
"If I had known this, I shouldn't have listened to the Emperor's advice and married you."
The Eighth Master now wishes he could understand Guo Luoluo better, otherwise if she keeps causing trouble for him again and again, she will sooner or later implicate him.
Guo Luoluo raised her head and saw a red mark on her face. She sneered, "Why? Eighth Master, are you starting to dislike me now? That's not what you said when you first married me. You said you would treat me well and that I would have the final say in all matters in the mansion."
"But now, since Zhang came into the mansion, you not only handed over the power of housekeeping to her, but also confined me."
"I got smallpox and it was obvious that someone wanted to harm me, but you didn't even do anything. If it weren't for Wen, would my face become like this? I hate that I didn't kill her with a knife when I was in the palace just now." The Eighth Lady clenched the quilt tightly in her hands and said to the Eighth Master with a ferocious look on her face.
Mr. Ba didn't expect that she not only did not reflect on her own mistakes, but instead blamed him.
"You vicious woman, if you didn't want to hurt others, would you have harmed yourself like this? You are like this, you are asking for trouble."
"Don't think your methods are so clever and treat others as fools. How dare you say that Fourth Brother's child got smallpox without your help... If you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself."
When the Eighth Master's wife contracted smallpox for no apparent reason, he had already sent someone to investigate.
He didn't know whether Fourth Brother had leaked the news on purpose, but he quickly found out the whole story.
But he didn't expect that his wife was so vicious that she even dared to attack his fourth brother's child.
Fortunately, they are all fine now, otherwise if this matter was brought to the attention of the Emperor, she thought she could still live well. Did she really think that her in-laws were her amulet?
Harming the royal descendants is what the emperor can least tolerate.
