There was no need to mention how Shui Cheng, who was good at deceiving others, had argued with Emperor Wen in the imperial court.

After Shui Cheng left, Wu Mei used the excuse of reading books to chase away her personal servant, Chun Yu, to the outer room of the study to do needlework. She then hid in the inner room to talk to the mice who had come to report information about the Duke Rongguo's Jia Mansion.

"Jia Er's courtyard, except for a few concubines who had already been selected, has been replaced."

A gray-furred mouse squeaked as it spoke, revealing everything that had happened in the Jia Mansion of Rong Country after Wu Mei became the Eldest Princess of the First Wife.

Wu Mei was stupefied. "Who is Jia Er?

It can't be that hypocrite, right? "

Little Mouse had obviously heard Jia Xie whisper in private that Jia Zheng was a hypocrite. Thus, when Wu Mei called Jia Zheng that, Little Mouse only stared blankly for a moment before it nodded fiercely and squeaked.

"It's him, it's him. Isn't Jia Er just a hypocrite? He was clearly the one who smashed the study's furnishings, yet he blamed the servants for being careless …"

Wu Mei allowed Little Mouse to squeak for a long time before she faintly said, "Only Jia Zheng's courtyard was replaced?

The servants in the Benefactor's courtyard were not replaced? "

"According to Old Grandaunt, the indenture contracts of all the servants in the East Grand Courtyard are in the hands of Your Highness' Benefactor. Thus, Lady Jia was unable to successfully replace the servants in the East Grand Courtyard." Another gray-furred mouse hurriedly replied.

"You can't replace them, but you can install them!"

Wu Mei faintly sighed again. "If it weren't for this rare opportunity, I'm afraid I would regret becoming the Eldest Princess of the First Wife of Great Wei."

Her soul had completely fused with her body, and she was willing to become a mortal in this life!

"Don't worry, Your Highness. We'll keep an eye on Rongguo Province. We won't let anything happen to Your Highness' Benefactor."

The little mouse, who was the first to speak, squeaked, "Yesterday, Madam Jia spoke to Your Highness's benefactor in a pleasant manner. She said that the deceased Old Madam Jia loved her grandson the most, and that it would be best if Your Highness's benefactor could go to a well-known temple in the suburbs of the capital to pray for Old Madam Jia's blessings while copying Buddhist scriptures.

When we ran into the Imperial Palace through the sewers, we saw that the Duke Rongguo was very tempted. We thought that His Highness' Benefactor couldn't avoid going out to the temple in the suburbs of the capital to pray for His Highness … "

Lady Jia was biased to the extent of her armpits. She actually spoke in such a manner, and her attitude was quite pleasant according to the Little Mouse. Wu Mei didn't need to use her brain to guess that Lady Jia was definitely up to no good. She was definitely secretly plotting something …

However …

Wu Mei thought about it and felt that this was an opportunity, an opportunity to meet the 'Benefactor' in advance.

Wu Mei's foxy eyes narrowed, and the two dimples on her face showed that she was happy.

She laughed very happily and said, "Brother Crown Prince's ten years of mourning for his mother is coming soon. It's time for me to go to the Dafo Temple. I'll burn a few incense sticks for my mother and recite some Buddhist scriptures. It'll also be considered as the shallow fate of mother and daughter …"

Wu Mei made up her mind. She would choose the day when Jia Xie was' driven out 'of Rongguo Province to pray for Lady Jia and pray for His Highness. She would leave the Imperial Palace and have a lifetime of love at first sight with the Benefactor that she had been thinking of and was determined to dote on for the rest of her life.

Wu Mei had traveled to many worlds in order to find the Benefactor. She had long been used to planning before taking action. She would first set the rules for everything she wanted to do, and then find out the details that could cause changes and perfect them.

Therefore, even though she had made up her mind, Wu Mei still didn't have the exact time when Jia Xie was' driven out 'of Rongguo Province.

It was only when Shui Cheng was around that she would occasionally guide Shui Cheng's melancholy and longing for Queen Yuan's early death without leaving a trace.

"Brother Crown Prince, you've been copying Buddhist scriptures for your mother every year. Your filial piety is commendable.

Mei Niang also wants to learn from Brother Crown Prince to show your filial piety. However, she's small and weak. Not only is her handwriting ugly, but she's also illiterate … "

Wu Mei's little face scrunched up as she said aggrievedly, "Brother Crown Prince, please teach Mei Niang how to write.

Mei Niang is a princess after all. An illiterate princess is a disgrace to you, Brother Crown Prince. "

Due to the fact that the eldest princess of the first wife lacked a soul, she was born mentally retarded. She relied on others to eat, drink, go to the toilet, and sleep. How could she possibly know how to read and write? Although Wu Mei could read and write well, after she became the eldest princess of the first wife, she could only become 'illiterate and unable to write'.

Shui Cheng didn't know that in the blink of an eye, Wu Mei's exquisite heart had already turned countless thoughts.

When he heard Wu Mei say that she wanted him to teach her how to write, his eyes lit up as he said, "My handwriting style leans towards the majestic side. It's very suitable for Xiao Mei to learn.

Xiao Mei can rest assured. Brother will definitely teach you how to write. "

Wu Mei's eyes also lit up as she replied, "Mei Niang believes in Brother Crown Prince."

After Shui Cheng held Wu Mei in his arms and taught her how to write, it only took a few days for the news to spread throughout the entire imperial palace.

After Emperor Wen heard the news, he was somewhat jealous. His handwriting was even more domineering. Mei Niang should learn how to write from him!

Mei Niang sat on a high stool and swung her legs. She deliberately smiled charmingly and said, "Father Emperor, Mei Niang is a girl. Her handwriting should be graceful and gentle. How can it be domineering?

Only Father Emperor can be domineering. "

Wu Mei's flattery made Emperor Wen's heart itch. He was simply overjoyed and proud.

"Mei Niang is right. We remember that Li Dajie's handwriting was kept in the library. Her handwriting is the most graceful, but it also has a natural and unrestrained feeling that is different from that of ordinary women. Mei Niang, it's the most suitable for you to copy Li Dajie's handwriting."

Wu Mei nodded and said softly, "Father Emperor is really good. Many thanks, Father Emperor."

Wu Mei learning how to write and learn how to read was just a prelude to the fact that she knew how to write.

It was also a coincidence that Wu Mei's handwriting was similar to Li Dajie's. It was just that her handwriting was more natural and unrestrained.

After all of Li Dajie's handwriting was packed and sent to the library, Wu Mei copied them while skillfully copying the Buddhist scriptures.

After she finished copying the Buddhist scriptures, Wu Mei also learned the exact time that Jia Xie was' driven 'out of Rongguo Province and temporarily lived in the Dafo Temple from Haozi's intelligence team.

With a proud expression, Wu Mei showed the Buddhist scriptures she copied to Shui Cheng. Shui Cheng's eyes were brimming with tears.

"Copying so much, your hands must be very painful."

Shui Cheng quickly grabbed Wu Mei's small hands and rubbed them for her.

In the end, he even ridiculed Emperor Wen, "Our Father Emperor is really a troublemaker. Clearly, you only need to learn how to read and write from Gege, but he still made you copy Li Dajie's handwriting. Gu admits that Li Dajie's handwriting is very strong, but Xiaomei, you have to copy and copy the Buddhist scriptures. It's really too tiring.

Xiaomei, even if your handwriting is like a crab's crawling, I think Imperial Mother won't dislike it. "

If she didn't know that Shui Cheng didn't have any other thoughts and just felt sorry for her writing so much, she would definitely spit at him.

What did he mean by writing like a crab's crawling? The already deceased Queen Yuan might not dislike it, but she did, okay …

Wu Mei vaguely rolled her eyes and turned to remind Shui Cheng, "Gege Crown Prince, I heard that the Great Buddhist Temple in the suburbs of the capital is very popular. Both Gege Crown Prince and Imperial Father said that Imperial Mother was a Buddhist when she was alive. Mei Niang, think carefully. Why don't we go to the Great Buddhist Temple and personally burn the scriptures in front of Buddha to pray for Imperial Mother's blessings in the next life?"

"Mei Niang is really considerate."

Shui Cheng didn't know that Wu Mei said this mainly because she wanted to have a beautiful first encounter with her Benefactor. Therefore, his eyes were brimming with tears.

Of course, even if Shui Cheng liked to imagine Wu Mei's every move, he still didn't speak politely to his father, Emperor Wen.

Shui Cheng was moved and said, "Mei Niang is right. We should personally go to the Buddha to burn the scriptures in front of Buddha to pray for Imperial Mother's blessings. Otherwise, I would have to face Imperial Father's embarrassed face every time Imperial Mother's death anniversary is mourning …"

My Gege is really amazing. He's really squeezing Imperial Father all the time …

Wu Mei was gloating over Emperor Wen's misfortune in her heart. She suggested, "Gege, we're only going out of the palace to express our filial piety. It's not good to make a big fuss. Why don't we change into casual clothes and pretend to be rich young masters and sisters?

This way, there won't be people who want to curry favor with the rich and powerful and take the opportunity to flatter us. "

Shui Cheng thought about it carefully and felt that Wu Mei's words made sense. Therefore, he agreed with Wu Mei's suggestion to change into casual clothes and dress up as rich young masters and sisters.

After Wu Mei achieved her goal, she naturally held Shui Cheng's arm and excitedly talked about what kind of casual clothes the two of them would wear. They wouldn't stand out but would look good.

On the other hand, the Jia Xie's side gave off a bleak feeling as if the wind was blowing and the water was freezing.

The Jia Xie, who hadn't reached the age of twenty yet but was becoming more and more handsome as he grew. His appearance was comparable to Pan An's in ancient times. He stood quietly in the courtyard and said in a deep voice, "The servants in our courtyard have been lazy recently. Look at the weeds, they're actually not trimming them. They're leaving them for me to experience the feeling of fragrant grass!"

Jin Zhuang was dumbstruck and didn't have the slightest desire to answer the Jia Xie's question.

Silver Ingot and Copper Coin looked at each other and said a little helplessly and cautiously, "Sir, didn't you tell the rough sweeping woman not to trim the weeds?"

The Jia Xie's heart was choked. He also remembered that he had told them to do so in advance. He couldn't help but become angry out of embarrassment, "You two have learned how to gossip. It seems that it was right for me to go to the Great Buddhist Temple to be a monk and leave you two to guard the East Grand Courtyard."

Silver Ingot and Copper Coin quickly apologized.

Silver Ingot said, "Sir, I know I'm wrong. Don't leave me and Copper Coin behind. When you go out, you should at least leave someone to serve you.

I'm better at talking than Copper Coin and I'm also more diligent than Copper Coin. You can't go wrong bringing me along. "

Tong Qian glared at Silver Ingot, this scammer who only sold his own people. He turned and said, "It's good that Sir left Silver Ingot and me. But if Sir doesn't bring one of the three of us with him when he goes out, Madam might have the idea of sending a pretty girl to serve Sir …"

The Jia Xie nodded but didn't say anything. Instead, he asked Gold Ingot, "Gold Ingot, what do you think?"
