Chu Luoyi didn't continue to dwell on this topic, but spoke: "Now Madam is planning to take charge of the Feng Mansion again?" โ
Mrs. Feng nodded: "Master has this meaning, but Aunt Zhao has taken care of the Feng Mansion for many years, and she has made a lot of contributions, and she is very familiar with all kinds of affairs, and now there is nothing wrong with her, so it is a bit too much to let her hand over the power of the family." โ
Looking at the disgusted look in Mrs. Feng's eyes, Chu Luoyi said in her heart, this Mrs. Feng is not a stupid person, after so many years, she must have felt that this Aunt Zhao is not a good person.
"Mrs. is a legitimate housewife, it is a legitimate thing to be in charge of the courtyard, Aunt Zhao is not a person who does not understand the rules, in my opinion, Mrs. does not have to go through the master to find Aunt Zhao directly." Chu Luoyi reminded with a smile.
Mrs. Feng hesitated a little and said, "I'm worried that this is too tough and will make the master dissatisfied." โ
"Madame is too worried, who is in charge of the affairs of this mansion, Lord Feng actually doesn't care, but if some words are said by Lord Feng, it will inevitably seem unkind, so Madame can only come forward."
A flash of clarity flashed in Mrs. Feng's eyes, and she seemed to understand what Chu Luoyi meant, for so many years, Aunt Zhao has been by the master's side, if it is because of her comeback, she will be directly exempted from Aunt Zhao's permission, and it will inevitably let the people in the mansion say that she will solve this matter directly, and then the master will give Aunt Zhao some rewards, but it will be a good idea.
"It's no wonder that Mrs. Yu is so favored by adults, and I want to thank Mrs. today." Mrs. Feng said with a smile.
Chu Luoyi continued to speak: "It's just that after Madame is in charge of the house, there are some things that need to be cautious, otherwise, it will be easy to reproduce all kinds of things back then." โ
"Mrs. Yu wants to tell me that after being careful and re-taking charge of the back house, someone wants to make trouble?" Mrs. Feng asked.
Chu Luoyi opened his mouth and said: "There may not be an incident in the back house, after all, if Mrs. just takes over, there will be various situations, which will really cause suspicion to Aunt Zhao, but outside the Feng Mansion, I heard that Aunt Zhao's brother is the biggest imperial businessman, if she wants to have any trouble, Mrs. is afraid that she will be powerless." โ
Chu Luoyi lowered his head and took a sip of tea, although he planned to leave, but if this net is not removed one day, it will definitely become a huge hidden danger in the future, this Mrs. Feng's mother family seems to be surnamed Ban, when the two sons of the Ban family were separated, one was a concubine and the other was a concubine, and the family naturally favored the concubine, so that later the concubine left home and wandered alone.
It's just that I didn't expect that the luck of the Ban family was not good, the family was almost in decline, and the power of the Ban family was no longer what it used to be, but coincidentally, this concubine was very prosperous, and even with many remote relatives in the family, several people who were good friends with this concubine were mixed up.
If she remembers it well, when Feng Ji was still alive, she had a good relationship with the son of this class of concubines, and later asked, Feng Ji once told her that although her mother was a concubine of the class, because of her upright and strong-hearted and kind-hearted, she treated him as a little uncle several times, and even finally left home, it was his mother who sold jewelry and gave him entanglement.
Therefore, Chu Luoyi thought, although this class family is in decline, but the status of this concubine Ban Wuji is now in full swing, and it is a good choice to suppress Aunt Zhao's brother with the help of Ban Wuji's power.
"I don't understand that? Shinong businessman, Shang is the last stream, although this Aunt Zhao's brother is an imperial businessman, why would he have trouble with me? Madame Feng frowned, as if she couldn't figure out the joints.
Chu Luoyi opened his mouth to explain: "There are two points, first, the businessman has a wide range of friends, the three religions and the nine streams have everything, go south and north, what he hears and sees is definitely not something that Mrs. A serious official lady can know, if you play right and wrong, use some means, Mrs. is afraid that it will be impossible to prevent it." โ
Mrs. Feng didn't speak, as if she was thinking carefully about Chu Luoyi's words, but Feng Ying on the side directly asked the words and said, "Mrs. Yu thinks that when I was a blood to recognize my relatives, my brother's blood could not be compatible with my father, and some means were used?" โ
Mrs. Feng was stunned, she couldn't help her prove Feng Ji's death back then, it had always been a piece of her heart, thinking back to that time, Aunt Zhao had been in Feng's mansion for a few years, she had always thought that she was a safe person, but now that she thinks about it, she did have a lot of contact with her younger brother and walked very closely.
Chu Luoyi said at the right time: "I don't know if you have heard, there are some medicinal powders in the Western Regions and Southern Xinjiang, and even in the chaotic border borders, which can make different blood dissolve or the same blood insoluble. โ
Mrs. Feng's brows were twisted, and Chu Luoyi continued: "Second, this businessman has the most money, and now Feng Hong is deeply favored by Lord Feng, if there is an uncle with strong financial resources behind him, I am afraid that all the way to prosperity, Madame's status in this mansion will not be in jeopardy?" โ
Mrs. Feng was a little hesitant, she had always been upright and didn't like to hurt people, but now she also wanted to plot against others?
Chu Luoyi seemed to know what she was thinking, and spoke again: "If Madame is ruthless, I am afraid that it will be the third young lady and the lady herself who will suffer in the future, Madame should think about it, why did the third young lady marry a fool when she was fine, but when she wanted to marry into the Han Mansion, she had accidents one after another?" โ
Mrs. Feng's heart tightened, and she seemed to have made a decision, she had already lost a son, and she couldn't lose another daughter: "I have written down Mrs. Yu's words." โ
Chu Luoyi said again: "Actually, Madam doesn't have to be upset, Aunt Zhao's brother has been an imperial businessman for many years, and it is impossible for him to be clean in his actions, and Madame doesn't have to fabricate any charges, as long as he investigates his actions over the years, there will always be some clues." โ
Listening to Chu Luoyi's words, Mrs. Feng nodded and said, "I still have to thank Mrs. Yu for mentioning this matter." โ
"Mrs. Feng is polite, I fell in love with the third lady, so I have seen something else." Chu Luoyi said.
At this time, Mrs. Feng took out an invitation from her sleeve and said: "I have one more thing to do today, the day after tomorrow is Princess Mingrui's birthday banquet, and the person who sent the post bothered me to pass on this invitation to you." โ
Chu Luoyi opened the invitation with gold edges, and looked at it carefully, it was indeed the invitation to Princess Mingrui's birthday banquet.
"Someone asked me to tell you that the princess has been busy preparing for a birthday banquet these days, so she hasn't had time to respond to the previous prayer post, so if you don't dislike it, I hope to attend her birthday banquet together this time." Mrs. Feng spoke.
Chu Luoyi was entangled in her heart, no wonder she asked Xiao Liuzi to send a prayer post some time ago and did not reply for a long time, it turned out that the birthday banquet was approaching, and Princess Mingrui planned to have a banquet.
It's just that he just decided to leave Tianshui and return to Dachu's camp, so he sent an invitation from Princess Mingrui, whether he should go or not.
The little six sons on the side were depressed, this invitation was not sent early or late, but it was sent at this time, looking at the appearance of the master, eighty percent of them couldn't go again.
Mrs. Feng thought that Chu Luoyi had some scruples because she had returned to Tianshui for the first time, so she said: "Why don't Mrs. Yu go with the Feng Mansion when she arrives, this princess's birthday banquet will have many people, but you don't have to worry about anything wrong." โ
Chu Luoyi thought about it, and felt that it was better to take a look with the Feng Mansion, so as to see why the little prince of Duanjing was so excited to see him, and whether there was any hidden secret?
"In this way, it will bother Mrs. Feng." Chu Luoyi thanked him.
Mrs. Feng nodded and smiled: "Then in the early morning of the day after tomorrow, I will send someone to inform Mrs. Yu, even if Mrs. Feng goes with us Feng Mansion at that time, there must be nothing wrong with it." โ
A few more greetings, and Mrs. Feng took Feng Ying to say goodbye and left.
Xiao Liuzi frowned and said, "Master, I'll go pack up my things, let's leave Tianshui tomorrow~"
Chu Luoyi glanced at him and said, "What are you anxious about, didn't you hear that I agreed to Mrs. Feng to go to Princess Mingrui's birthday banquet together." โ
Xiao Liuzi sat at the table dejectedly: "Master, you have also said before, this Tianshui is not a good place, this Prince Mingrui is a person from Ouyang Qiancheng, you go, if something goes wrong, it will cost the slave's life, and the slave can't afford to pay for it." โ
Xiao Liuzi's words are exactly what Chu Luoyi was thinking, this Mingrui Mansion can be said to be a big help to Ouyang Qiancheng, if he goes, what can he do?
"You go and prepare a birthday gift for the princess, and then see who will go to the Feng Mansion when it arrives." Chu Luoyi said to Xiao Liuzi.
Xiao Liuzi said yes a little listlessly, and turned to leave.
After taking a few steps, he turned around and said, "Master, you haven't drunk the medicine yet." โ
Chu Luoyi nodded: "I haven't forgotten." โ
In just two days, the time passed quickly, and early this morning, the entire Feng Mansion was busy, and the servants were hurriedly preparing.
Chu Luoyi first dressed himself up in disguise, and then ordered the maid of Fengfu to comb herself, comb a woman's hair bun, and put on a peacock inlaid with blue zircon, the peacock had a touch of Zhu Dan-colored gem in its mouth, hanging from Chu Luoyi's eyebrows, with a string of light blue tassels and a few golden hairpins.
Chu Luoyi asked a skillful maid to paint herself a slightly bright makeup, so as not to make her own easy means and full of flaws.
Subsequently, Xiao Liuzi chose a set of starry blue long skirts for Chu Luoyi, the long skirt was inlaid with scattered gems, the bandeau was a golden embroidered belt, and the gold and silver threads were interspersed.
still brought a veil to himself, checked the birthday gift prepared by Xiao Liuzi, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong, he waited with peace of mind.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for a grandmother from Feng's mansion to come: "Mrs. Yu, our master invites you to go to the front yard, or it won't be long before we set off." โ
Chu Luoyi nodded in response, and under the guidance of Mama, he took Xiao Liuzi all the way to the front yard.
The two carriages of Feng's mansion were already ready in front of the door, Mrs. Feng was dressed in a golden orange dress, elegant and noble, and Feng Ying was dressed in a light green gauze skirt, which was full of vitality.
Standing behind the two were Aunt Zhao and Feng Hong, as well as the two concubines of the Feng Mansion, all of whom Chu Luoyi had seen.
Walking forward, Mrs. Feng warmly took Chu Luoyi's hand and led her and Feng Ying to the first carriage.
