Chapter 194.1: Coincidence

“Letting her mother personally take care of her rather isn’t a bad idea.” Li Hong Yuan twirled the teacup, but then paused again, having the cup put back. Don’t know which technique Luo Pei Shan plans on using to process those tea leaves. If slowly, need to take a few months, but if quickly, then at this time, the finished tea should already be out. No matter what, he was the one that had picked it, so dropping in to see was also understandable.

On Ruan Fang Fei’s side, he already for the most part don’t need to personally interfere. With that imperial uncle present, just need to appropriately have them kept under watch. And on Ruan Rui Zhong’s side, he just need to add one more straw for him. However, this can be delayed a little. Since he already has plan, then right now, just need to patiently wait, and it won’t be too long either. In any case, prior to returning to the capital, it should all be cleanly resolved.

“Who all did you two look for last night?” Li Hong Yuan indifferently glanced at Qing Shi and Qing Ge who were leading the little servant girls in setting the afternoon meal. He rather wasn’t suspecting that they would go against his orders, nor was he interested in getting involved in the private matters of the people below him. It was nothing more than just seeing them and suddenly recalling this matter, having that bit of curiosity.

Qing Ge’s hand shook, nearly causing the plate in hand to fall. Rather, it was Qing Shi who was very calm, and very naturally reached out to take the plate, placing it on the table. Smashing a plate right now was equal to smashing one’s own life.

——–Li Hong Yuan wouldn’t really, because of this bit of trivial matter, just ask for their lives, but it was certain that he won’t let them continue serving at his side, sending them back to wherever they came from. And as servant girls that know about some of Li Hong Yuan’s matters, without even needing Li Hong Yuan to instruct, Eunuch Mu all won’t let them leave cleanly. Unable to talk, unable to write, that was just the most basic requirement, and that was also just being equivalent to a crippled person. Moreover, getting sent back by the master, they definitely have problems, so who would still use?

Among the servants, situations like ‘flattering the high and stepping on the low’ were even more severe. When in power, even those older than you would also intimately call you ‘older sister’ or ‘sir’, but once you lose power, they will immediately be able to spit at you, pushing you aside, suppressing you, and stomping you to death.

Qing Ge gratefully glanced at Qing Shi. As expected, she still wasn’t well trained enough, still needing more self-discipline.

Speaking of which, serving by Li Hong Yuan’s side, that was definitely a very ‘toughening’ matter. For the most part, if you’re able to smoothly work under him for three months, then if placed outside, others most likely will all give a thumbs up, saying: “To remain calm in the face of change, incredible.” But how would they know that this in the Jin Qinwang Manor was the most fundamental thing. ———Of course, when facing master’s heavy expression, no one was able to withstand.

Clearly it was something that was more than enough to make a girl embarrassed to the point of being unable to show one’s face, yet because master completely didn’t mind, you also needed to not mind when replying. Thus, after placing down the things in hand, and sending away the little servant girls, they respectfully replied.

“Replying to master, it was the guy that’s in charge of all the plants and flowers in the manor.” Qing Shi opened her mouth first.

“Replying to master, it was a guard………”

Li Hong Yuan lifted his hand, and Qing Ge hurriedly shut her mouth. The guards he brought along weren’t considered few, but compared to his other brothers, it wasn’t many either. If it’s just choosing among the bodyguards, aside from An Yi, whichever one didn’t matter. The servant girls by his side presumably also know what’s appropriate, and which ones they can’t pick, they should all have an understanding inside. However, “Gardener? You chose on your own?”

Because of Jing Wan, towards the plants and flowers in the manor, Li Hong Yuan very much regarded, and he things he regarded, for the people tending to it, their worth naturally also doubled along with. That’s why, the gardener that in other places didn’t have any status, in Jin Qinwang Manor, was a position that many people fought over for. Even if they didn’t know how, they would still secretly learn, just hoping to win that position someday.

In the manor, there were several hundred servants, but the ones that were able to meet Li Hong Yuan were actually just a few among a minority. And as the people serving by his side, they naturally were also the target of other people’s fawning. However, these people, they similarly can’t meet easily. Regardless of where, one all needed to pay close attention to the rules, each performing their own duties. The manor may be big, but the places they can go were very limited. To dare casually walk around recklessly, once caught, getting sold off was actually still considered light. The gardener although was somewhat regarded by Li Hong Yuan, he was regarded differently from the close serving servant girls. Some things a servant girl can know, but a gardener can’t.

And why did Li Hong Yuan bring this gardener along? It was nothing more than because next year, during the summer holidays, Wan Wan will be together with him, and not traveling along with the Luo family. Regardless whether it’s in the imperial summer residence, or the villa outside, they all needed to be meticulously put in order.

Qing Shi naturally was aware of this situation too, hesitating for a moment, “He was the one that came looking.”

“This prince rather didn’t know that there’s actually someone as stupid as you by one’s side. Any random man coming to the door, and you just agreed? And this matter, how did he know about?” In the Jin Qinwang Manor, aside from a small portion of people, the rest similarly believed that the four servant girls by his side were all for warming his bed.

This matter, to say it was big, it was big, and to say it was small, it was small, but regardless of what, for something concerning him to have all gotten leaked out, then someone certainly must have neglected their duties. At the time, it was also just these people present, so they all simultaneously knelt down to beg for forgiveness.

——–With one thing getting leaked into the air, that meant that it was also possible for other things to have leaked.

The gardener was dragged over in the quickest speed. And originally because he’d gotten to hold the beauty, currently proud of his success, for something like this to suddenly happen, he momentarily blanked. Facing their master, he somewhat trembled as he kneeled on the ground.

However, this matter, Li Hong Yuan wasn’t interested in taking care of himself, “Mu An, this prince just want the results.”

“Yes, master.” Eunuch Mu hurriedly responded.

He was Li Hong Yuan’s personal attendant, and at the same time also the head steward of Jin Qinwang Manor. When there was no mishap, naturally everything was all good, but once something happens, even he was unable to escape the blame. That’s why, at this time, Eunuch Mu also hated to the point of wanting to kill someone.

Aside from An Yi, the rest all retreated out.

“Master, will you be using the meal?” For an outstanding shadow guard, serving their master during the meal similarly was nothing difficult.

Li Hong Yuan looked to the table full of delicate dishes, not having much of an appetite. Right now, he seemingly didn’t want to eat alone more and more. However, right now he was inside the imperial residence. If he doesn’t use the afternoon meal, and just hastily leave, that good consort mother of his probably will nag at him again.

He more or less ate a little, but the big dishes on the table he didn’t touch at all. In the middle of summer, who would eat those oily and greasy things. The chefs he brought along naturally knew his preference, so these dishes were actually separately sent over by Le Cheng Emperor and Noble Consort Su. Even if they know his preference, they still worry about him not eating well, saying he ate too bland, and thus persistently sent him dishes.
