Chapter 41 She has already knelt down, what else can she do?
Shen Ning put away the silver needle, turned around and walked out.
Ji Yucang stood up and put on some clothes. He raised his hands and gently covered his heart and lungs. He really felt no pain at all.
He raised his eyes and looked at Shen Ning's back as she walked out.
The girl has a slender figure and a demeanor that is calm about honor and disgrace. Her emotions are as light as a clear water, colder than herself, and she can't see any emotions or desires.
He couldn't help but sigh slightly.
It would be a very long process to capture the heart of such a woman. Fortunately, she was now his, and no one else could take her away.
"Master." Ling Feng stood in front of the door, looking at Ji Yucang's disheveled appearance, his expression seemed surprised and happy, "Princess, she..."
"It should be fine within today." Ji Yucang came back to his senses and said in a calm and indifferent tone, "The princess has superb medical skills and can relieve the pain of the king's poison. No one is allowed to know about this for the time being."
"Yes." Ling Feng agreed.
"It is not convenient for me to go out for the time being. Please take care of me outside." Ji Yucang walked to the window and said, "If the princess needs anything, let the palace manager arrange it. No one is allowed to neglect the princess."
"Yes." Ling Feng resigned.
Shen Ning asked Shi Qin to go to the accounting room to get some silver, and then returned to Jinlin Courtyard to rest for a while.
When I arrived at Jinlin Courtyard, I found a person kneeling in the courtyard.
Shen Ning paused slightly and turned her head to look at the maids sweeping the yard.
A stewardess came over and saluted Shen Ning respectfully: "Princess, my cousin has been kneeling here since she came back from Yan's house. She said she wanted to apologize to the princess."
After Aunt Wu was killed with a cane, Shen Ning promoted another nanny to take full charge of managing the affairs of the inner courtyard. It was Aunt Jade who was fair and upholding her duties.
"I know." Shen Ning said calmly, "Go and do your work."
"yes."
Shen Ning walked into the courtyard, walked past Gu Yanran, climbed up the steps, and approached the door.
"Sister-in-law, the princess." Gu Yanran raised her eyes, pursed her red lips lightly, and said with a forbearing expression, "I know I was wrong. I should not deny the princess and sister-in-law face in front of outsiders. I should understand that everyone will be prosperous and everyone will suffer. Even if...even if my cousin's words and deeds are slightly inappropriate, I...I should unswervingly protect the princess and my sister-in-law..."
"Close the door." Shen Ning's voice was cold, "If she continues to make noise, throw her out."
"yes."
Gu Yanran blushed and stared at the closed door. The handkerchief in her hand was almost twisted into a ball.
Damn Shen Ning.
She even knelt down to her, what else could she do?
Do you really think you are the Queen Mother?
Gu Yanran bit her lip, neither getting up nor continuing to kneel. She didn't know what to do for a moment.
Looking around, she raised her finger and pointed at a maid sweeping the floor: "Come here."
The maid came closer tremblingly: "Cousin."
Gu Yanran lowered her eyes and spoke softly: "Go to the regent and tell me that you accidentally made the princess angry. I am kneeling in front of the princess' door to apologize, but the princess ignores me."
The maid was startled and knelt down with a bang: "I don't dare, I don't dare!"
The cousin thought so highly of her, how could she, a rude maid, dare to ask for an audience with the prince without permission? Where did he get the courage to stir up trouble with the princess?
She wouldn't dare to do this even if she had nine lives.
Gu Yanran bit her lip, and it was useless to scold her intentionally. She had always shown a weak and kind image in the palace. Now her eyes were red, and she just stared at the maid aggrievedly without saying anything.
The poor little maid usually only swept the floor and sprinkled water. When she saw her master far away, she knelt down and saluted. She didn't dare to raise her head. She just wanted to be safe and not cause trouble. She never thought that she would be entangled by her cousin today.
She thought for a while and then said weakly: "Slave, let's try it."
Gu Yanran nodded slowly, with gratitude on her face: "Thank you very much."
The little maid quickly got up and ran outside.
However, as soon as he ran outside the Jinlin Courtyard, he saw Aunt Yu walking quickly with snacks in her hand: "Myolie, if you don't stay in the Princess Courtyard and clean up, what are you doing?"
Xing'er plopped down and knelt down again: "Aunt Yu."
Aunt Jade frowned.
"My cousin... my cousin asked me to go see the prince..." Xing'er shivered with fear, "My slave said that she was of low status and couldn't see the prince, but she... she..."
Aunt Jade frowned: "The prince ordered that no one should disturb me today. You are neglecting your duties and being lazy. Just kneel here for an hour and you are not allowed to go anywhere."
"Yes." Xing'er breathed a long sigh of relief, "Thank you, Aunt Yu."
Aunt Yu walked into Jinlin Courtyard carrying snacks and called all the maids working in the yard over: "Who is in charge of Myolie?"
Gu Yanran's expression changed slightly, and she turned to look at Aunt Jade, who looked majestic.
A big maid came over and said, "Aunt Jade."
"Miss Lan Hua." Aunt Yu greeted her politely when she saw her, "Xing'er neglected her duties and left without authorization. I will punish her by kneeling outside for an hour. I will inform the girl first."
Lan Hua and Lan Zhi were originally female officers trained in the palace. They were transferred by the regent to give Shen Ning wedding clothes. After Shen Ning married into the regent's palace, they stayed in Jinlin Court as first-class maids, and their treatment was better than before. It's better, and I don't have to be bound by palace rules everywhere, which makes me feel much more comfortable.
All the maids in the princess's courtyard are under their charge, except for the personal female guards Shi Qin and Shi Qi.
"Myolie has always been well-behaved and diligent, but I don't know what happened today." Lan Hua was puzzled, "I'll ask her later. Thank you Aunt Yu."
"It's okay, these are the snacks freshly baked in the kitchen. I'll bring some to the princess." Aunt Yu said and walked into the room. "Lunch is already being prepared. The princess will try the snacks first."
Shen Ning was a little tired. When she saw Aunt Yu coming in, she just said, "Let them share the snacks. I'm a little tired. I need to rest for half an hour."
He had just entered the palace to deal with the Empress Dowager, which used up some energy. He rushed back to get the antidote from the emperor and gave Ji Yucang acupuncture, which also used up some energy.
She urgently needed to make up for the lost energy.
Preparing the antidote is also a physical and energy-consuming task, and you need to be mentally alert.
"Yes." Aunt Yu handed the snacks to Lanzhi, "I won't disturb the princess anymore. I will bring lunch over in half an hour."
