Chapter 184 I was dozing off, and someone brought me a pillow
The news that Xu Yan'er had signed the indenture contract spread throughout the palace in an instant.
Everyone was speculating that the Madam was going to start dealing with Xu Yan'er.
Many people have long disliked Xu Yan'er and were just waiting to see the show.
As long as Madam takes action, Xu Yan'er will definitely not have a good life in the future!
When the prince returned home for dinner, he also heard some gossip.
"Princess, was it really An'er who asked Xu Yan'er to sign the indenture contract?" He still couldn't believe it.
"Yes." The princess nodded affirmatively.
"He finally did something right! He broke the rules for Xu Yan'er! Now, he has put things right, stopped at the brink, and turned back. There is still hope."
The princess did not respond.
"Where is he now?" the prince asked again.
The princess glanced at Qingluo and motioned for Qingluo to answer the question.
Because she really didn't want to speak.
"Your Highness, the prince is now in Pixiayuan." Qingluo walked forward and responded.
"Pixiayuan?" The prince couldn't figure out where this place was for a moment.
"It's Aunt Xu's new residence." Qingluo explained.
"Xu Yan'er?" The prince's voice rose several degrees.
The princess still sat there without saying a word.
"It looks like we'll have to spend the night in Pixia Palace tonight," Qingluo added.
The prince glanced at the princess and finally realized why the princess didn't want to talk.
"Your Highness, please eat." The princess picked up the bowl and ate calmly.
"How could I give birth to a son like this?"
"It's because I was not well educated." The princess sighed.
This sentence also contains some unspeakable helplessness.
"Forget it, forget it, don't mention him anymore." When Xiao Yanan was mentioned again, the prince felt that he had lost all appetite.
"How is the second young master doing?" the princess suddenly asked.
When Xiao Jincheng was mentioned, the prince put down his chopsticks completely.
"I have already made it clear to him what I should say. As for whether he can understand, that's up to him. He came to me in person today and said he wanted to go out to study, and I agreed."
"Studying abroad? Are you leaving Huaiyang?"
"Ah."
"It seems that he still can't let it go."
"There are so many people in this world who are born different. Some are born as noble legitimate sons, while others are born as illegitimate sons who are equal to servants. It is understandable that you can refuse to accept your fate and fight for it. However, if you use the wrong means, you will suffer the consequences sooner or later." The prince was very angry. "Princess, do you still need someone to teach you this truth?"
"He was taught badly by his mother."
"It's his freedom to go wherever he wants. In the future, even if he doesn't recognize me as his father, then he can do that."
"Your Highness, calm down." The princess put the chopsticks and bowl in the prince's hands, "Try the bamboo shoots and pork that I made myself."
When the prince heard that the dish was made by the princess herself, he immediately placed the dish in front of him and ate two large bowls of it with rice.
……
Xu Yan'er left Xiao Yan'an's people behind.
After a night of tenderness, the relationship between the two seemed even sweeter than before.
Xiao Yan'an also felt relieved.
This kind of thing cannot be mixed with other purposes, otherwise, what is the difference between us and those animals who only care about reproduction?
When going to the government office, Xiao Yan'an asked Xu Yan'er to bring some of her favorite snacks and asked her to sleep for a while before getting up.
As soon as he left, Xu Yan'er stood up.
This time, she suffered such a big loss, how could she sleep well.
Instead of getting Ping'er's indenture back, he ended up getting himself involved.
Fortunately, she was smart enough to make peace with the prince in time and win his heart again.
Don't think that she doesn't know who made her sign the indenture!
Who else could it be except Ji Chuhe!
Ji Chuhe wants to deal with her!
Her surrender is just a temporary measure, Ji Chuhe should not be complacent too early!
"Ping'er, go and call all the servants in the yard over." Xu Yan'er suddenly gave the order.
Ping'er went to call the person in.
"Hello, aunt." Everyone bowed to her in unison.
"No need to be polite. Nanny Ji brought you here that day, and I didn't get to know you well. You've been wronged by following me. I'm just a concubine, and I can't work for the lady."
"We are servants, we just have to follow orders. How dare we have such thoughts?" One of them responded.
"What's your name?"
"My dear aunt, I was born in February, so I'm called February."
"Eryue, you are quite clever." Xu Yan'er praised, "From now on, when you serve in my courtyard, I will never let you down. Ping'er, go get the box next to my bed."
Ping'er turned around and took out the box.
After Xu Yan'er opened it, she picked around for a long time before picking out a few worthless things.
She has studied Ji Chuhe's methods thoroughly!
There is no other way, it’s just the combination of kindness and severity!
However, Ji Chuhe was smart in his actions, showing kindness first and then using power. Letting people taste the sweetness first was indeed a good way to win people's hearts.
"These things are given to you as rewards." Xu Yan'er asked Ping'er to distribute them one by one.
"Thank you for the reward, Auntie." Several people immediately expressed their gratitude.
Xu Yan'er observed the few people, but couldn't tell whether they were moved or not.
She has given all her money to reward them, so can't these people at least show some excitement?
Ping'er stood aside, tapping her toes on the ground in embarrassment.
Does Aunt Xu really not know how much monthly wages these servants get?
They are really not beggars.
"Did you all sign indentures to enter the palace? Are they all death indentures?" Xu Yan'er asked directly.
As soon as Ping'er heard about the indenture, she had a bad feeling.
"My aunt, yes, we are all under death indentures." It was February who spoke again.
"Now there is an opportunity for you to pledge your loyalty to me. Do you want to seize it? As you can see, I am the most favored person in the mansion. In the future, when I get pregnant with the prince's child, my status will definitely be higher than it is now. If you follow me, you will have a bright future."
These people immediately lowered their heads.
Even Ping'er had an urge to escape.
Aunt Xu has signed the indenture contract herself, and she is still planning to take advantage of their indenture contracts?
"February, come here." Xu Yan'er called out.
Er Yue walked forward and Xu Yan'er immediately handed the teapot and teacup to her.
"Get me a glass of water."
"Auntie, the water is very hot."
"Just hot it."
February poured a glass carefully.
Xu Yan'er suddenly reached out and knocked over the teapot, spilling all the water out.
Er Yue quickly stood in front of Xu Yan'er, and most of the water fell on her arms.
A small amount of water fell on Xu Yan'er, and Xu Yan'er immediately let out a scream.
"It hurts! It hurts! Quick, call the doctor!"
……
"Call the palace doctor? Are you pregnant?" Ji Chuhe asked calmly without even raising her head.
Nanny Ji tried hard to hold back her laughter, "No, it looks like I got burned."
"The servants didn't serve her well? Did she have a seizure?"
"There was no fuss this time, but the court doctor was summoned first."
"Where's the prince?"
"I went to the government office."
"Didn't you ask someone to inform the prince?"
"No."
Ji Chuhe smiled.
"Xu Yan'er brought me a pillow just as I was dozing off. Does she think that signing a contract to sell herself is not enough, and she has to completely wear out the little affection that the prince has in his heart before she will stop?"
