Chapter 1996: Chapter 1996: Loyal Hound Guard (4)
After driving Zhen Rou away, Chuzheng had all the people from Jinxiu Pavilion summoned over.She was at least a Prince’s Consort; the staff assigned to Jinxiu Pavilion was not exactly few.
"Anyone who just now didn’t follow my instructions can all leave." Since they didn’t work, keeping them was pointless.
Someone, frightened, dropped to their knees with a thud: "Prince’s Consort..."
Chuzheng couldn’t be bothered to listen to their nonsense. She wasn’t planning to keep them anyway, so she impatiently waved her hand, telling them to hurry up and go.
"Prince’s Consort, this servant knows her mistake, please don’t drive this servant away."
So what if Jinxiu Pavilion wasn’t favored; the work here was light and the monthly pay high. Who would want to leave?
Not favored, having their stipends docked, life being hard? The title of Prince’s Consort was right there; what she should have, she would not lack. Zhen Rou didn’t dare cut off Jinxiu Pavilion’s supplies yet, so their days were actually quite good.
And ever since the Prince’s Consort moved in, she hardly managed anything, which meant they could skim even more oil and water.
Now they were suddenly being driven out—who would be willing?
For a while, Jinxiu Pavilion was filled with wails.
Ying Xiang could hear it even from her own room, but unfortunately she couldn’t get out of bed for the time being, and could only listen anxiously.
She didn’t know how long had passed before a maid came in.
"Sister Ying Xiang, time for your medicine."
"What’s going on outside?" Ying Xiang immediately grabbed the maid and asked.
"The Prince’s Consort, she..."
Ying Xiang panicked at once: "What happened to Miss?" Had Zhen Rou come to make trouble for Miss again?
"No, no, no... the Prince’s Consort is fine. It’s the Prince’s Consort who drove all the others in Jinxiu Pavilion away."
"Huh?"
Just like Ying Xiang, everyone in the Prince’s Mansion was shocked.
Since entering the mansion, this Prince’s Consort had always appeared rather weak and cowardly. If not for the Minister of the Appointments standing behind her, given her temperament, it would probably be very hard for her to survive in this residence.
