Evil Lady: My Hubby is a Traitor - C6

Chapter 6 – Herbal Medicine

“But, grandpa …”

Wen Meng wanted to refute, preserve the power in her hands, and directly bring out the clan master, but Yun Qianliang did not even let her finish speaking.

“Qiu Yue, be careful. Don’t break the imperial edict.” Seeing that people were rushing over, Yun Qianliang purposely reminded them.

Wen Meng’s words were stuck in her throat, and she found it hard to swallow it back down, yet she could not find an opportunity to speak.

Qiu Yue held out the imperial edict to Yun Qianliang.

Everyone saw the bright yellow satin and immediately knelt on the ground.

“Just now, I mentioned that it was the Hibiscus Courtyard’s servant’s reminder, which is why I was gathering so many people. I will tell you all about the reason why I have gathered you all here.” Yun Qianliang casually held the imperial edict in his hand, and said softly to the people kneeling on the ground, “Just now, at the Nine Rhythm Corridor, my servant scolded some people for not bowing when she saw me, while the servants at Warm Girl’s side rejected his.”

Yun Qianliang paused, then tactfully stood out and repeated what Xiao Cui had said.

“Since the prime minister hasn’t admitted it, do you have the nerve to call me Madam?”

Yun Qianliang raised his hand and immediately retreated behind her.

“Judging from my meals and the taunts I heard during my stroll today, most of you don’t approve of me as your mistress. You can do whatever you want in your hearts. Since the emperor can’t see it, it’s natural that it’s none of your business. However, if it’s said out, it’s a capital punishment! ” Yun Qianliang raised his teacup and drank a mouthful of tea to moisturize his throat, his following words became even sharper, “I am the official wife of the Emperor who bestowed the marriage to the Minister of the Left, and naturally am the wife of the Gu Xiangfu. To speak out and deny my identity is equivalent to denying the words of the Emperor!”

Yun Qianliang lowered his eyes and sized up the expressions of the people kneeling on the ground. Many of them held onto the fact that this was a family matter and the Emperor did not have the mentality to interfere, so he did not seem to be afraid.

Yun Qianliang snorted coldly, getting the Steward Gu to stand up and hand the imperial edict over.

“Read it out for everyone to hear.”

The Steward Gu used a brocade handkerchief to wipe his hands before daring to accept the imperial edict.

“Under the will of the heavens, the Emperor shall deliver a decree: direct daughter of the Right Premier, Yun Qianliang, shall be well-informed, gentle and courteous, and shall be bestowed upon the Minister of the Left as his principal wife, with the hope that the two of them may share hardships with each other and work together until their heads turn white. “Here it is.”

“Strange, isn’t it? Everyone knows that I was bestowed with marriage by the Emperor. There’s no need to show off in public. ” “The purpose of the imperial edict is to tell you that the imperial edict is still around, and that the emperor is still watching over this marriage, so no one can guarantee that everyone in the Gu Xiangfu will be one of their own. If the words were to spread and reach the ears of the emperor, you all will not be able to accept this punishment, and the prime minister will not be able to accept it either.”

The Steward Gu understood tacitly that Yun Qianliang was not only using the imperial edict to make everyone recognize him as master and obtain the authority of mistress from the side, he had also beaten the servants of the Gu Xiangfu to not speak carelessly to prevent disasters from coming out of her mouth.

Yun Qianliang stood up and walked in front of Wen Meng.

She squatted in front of Wen Meng and lifted Wen Meng’s head so that she could look straight in her eyes.

“Warm Girl, I see you as my close friend, so you have to be worthy of me. Don’t let others think that the master who taught you this kind of servant is not good at all.” “released Wen Meng’s chin and stood up, looking down at the servant kneeling on the ground from above,” I, Yun Qianliang, am famous for being an evil girl in the capital, to the point that I can’t even bear the consequences of offending you, and you still want to take advantage of me while I’m still being reasonable?

Yun Qianliang spoke too much, and because she had a sore throat, she picked up the teacup and sipped on it, but did not take back the imperial edict, and allowed everyone to kneel like that.

Steward Gu had a whole new level of respect for Yun Qianliang. Rumors said that he was arrogant and despotic, his beauty brainless, and his methods could be said to be brilliant.

After a long while, Yun Qianliang did not reprimand them, and everyone kneeled down and remained silent.

Seeing that the momentum had passed, the Steward Gu asked for instructions, “Madam, the brunch has just arrived, there are still a lot of things to do.

“Have you passed the brunch s yet?” Yun Qianliang asked despite already knowing the answer. “Chun Hua, Qiu Yue, have you eaten both of you?”

“Even the madame can’t eat it, and the servant and the servant can’t eat it either.” Qiu Yue rubbed her stomach in grievance.

“Ever since you married into the Gu Xiangfu with me, two girls with flushed faces became hungry.” Yun Qianliang shook her head and sighed, after sobbing twice, she wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, “There’s no way I can pass my days here. Just change it to me taking the imperial edict and those rewards to the palace to express my gratitude, let’s see if I can use some jewelry to exchange for some food.”

“Hurry up and prepare the brunch for Madam.” Steward Gu wiped the sweat off his forehead.

The people in the kitchen quickly got up and left, not daring to be negligent.

Yun Qianliang sneered in her heart, and lazily got up, “In that case, I will go back and wait for the meal. After Steward Gu finishes tidying up the arrangements, I will come over to Green Pine Academy to deliver the food.”

Yun Qianliang took the imperial edict and left gracefully, only then did the group of people stand up.

Wen Meng looked at her beautiful back, and gritted her teeth in hatred.

She had entered the palace for three years, spent a year and a half to build her foundation at the General’s Estate, and was barely able to take care of the affairs of the General’s Estate. For this, she had spent a lot of time and effort learning, but Yun Qianliang, that vixen, actually wanted to take back her!

“Warm Girl, is it convenient for me to hand over the internal affairs you have in the morning?” Steward Gu acted as if he had not seen Wen Meng’s unwillingness.

“Steward Gu, do we not need to report this matter to the Lord Prime Minister? “Yun Qian …” Wen Meng called him by his name the fastest, after reacting to his words, he said, “My lady was loyal to the Jin Wang in the past, and now that she has just married into the General’s Estate, she wants to take charge of the internal affairs of the General’s Estate. What if …”

Wen Meng did not say the rest of her words, but the smart ones knew what to do.

Earlier, Yun Qianliang was determined to make the Jin Wang die, but after bestowing the marriage with him, she obediently married into the Gu Xiangfu, which inevitably made people suspicious. They misunderstood that she might have a secret transaction with the Jin Wang, which was why he agreed to marry into the Gu Xiangfu.

“I will report this matter to the Prime Minister, but Madame does not mind. Even if Madame does not care, I will personally take care of it. It should not be done by you.” The Steward Gu’s tone and attitude did not allow for any discussion, so Wen Meng could not speak anymore.

“It was the prime minister who spoke. As long as you want me to agree, I will immediately hand over the authority in my hands.” Wen Meng replied unyieldingly, and turned to leave.

Steward Gu looked at his leaving figure and shook his head.

Everyone in the mansion had been trained. If no one else used this tactic, no one would dare to go fight for the right wife.

Even if Yun Qianliang wasn’t favoured, he was still a direct daughter. The emperor’s personal wife, the Left Premier, was not someone a servant would dare go against.

In the Prime Minister’s residence, the most intolerable thing was the person who had presumptuous thoughts about her. Wen Meng had relied on the Prime Minister’s fondness for her zither skills, and had already surpassed the limit.

“Don’t provoke Madam in the future, don’t let others use you as a arrow target.” Before Steward Gu dismissed the servants, he didn’t forget to remind them.
