Benefactor's Style Was Wrong!
Chapter 6
What was Lady Jia trying to do???
During this period of time, Jia Xie had a series of intuitive impressions that Lady Jia favored Jia Zheng more. He felt that Lady Jia was up to no good.
Of course, Lady Jia was indeed up to no good.
Let's not talk about the maids and nannies of the four seasons first. Let's talk about the East Grand Courtyard.
All the servants in the East Grand Courtyard were Lady Jia's subordinates. They were the most loyal to Jia Xie, the young master.
Lady Jia wanted to change the servants in the East Grand Courtyard. It was nothing more than to have better control over Jia Xie.
This was a blatant plot. She only needed to see if Jia Zaiming, who was being schemed against, would dare to resist.
Jia She thought for a while, and with the help of the four Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter sisters, who were watching from the sidelines, he understood Mother Jia's dark scheme.
Unfortunately, even though he understood, Jia Xie was still indecisive on how to resist Lady Jia.
Actually, Jia Xie couldn't be blamed. Although he now understood that Lady Jia was biased and only cared about Jia Zheng, as a son, he still longed for his biological mother's love and care. He was always full of affection and attachment.
Jia Xie's inner world actually longed for paternal and maternal love.
Jia Xie knew that this was an extravagant hope. Based on Lady Jia's extremely biased personality, the greater his expectations, the greater his disappointment.
Perhaps his grandmother was right when she held his hand and said those words before she passed away. He was born with a poor relationship with his parents. If he wanted to live a good life, he could only put Duke Rongguo and Lady Jia at the back of his mind.
The more Jia Xie thought about it, the more he felt that his grandmother who was watching over him from heaven was right. However, how to put Duke Rongguo and Lady Jia at the back of his mind was a problem.
Thus, after thinking about it from left to right, Jia Xie couldn't help but ask the four seasons.
Perhaps Jia Xie's words were a little vague, causing the four seasons to be a little confused.
The dumbfounded Four Sisters of Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter?
Jia Xie?
Qiaoqiao?
Xi?
Qiaoqiao, Qiaoqiao, Qiaoqiao, Qiaoqiao, Qiaoqiao.
Qiaoqiao, Qiaoqiao?
Qiaoqiao?
Qiaoqiao????
Jia Xie coughed dryly and returned to normal. He put on a dignified appearance as the eldest brother.
"What Big Brother means is, since Madam has decided that Big Brother is a troublesome plaything, then Big Brother will show her how troublesome I am …" That determined gaze and raised tone made Elder Sister Qiu, who was the most tactful and thoughtful of the four Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter sisters, shed tears of sympathy for Lady Jia.
Jia Xie usually didn't cause trouble. However, once he made up his mind to cause trouble, his lethality was very high.
In the past, Lady Jia was in charge, so she was biased to the extent of her armpits. Thus, she didn't know that Jia Xie had such a skill in tormenting people other than his pretty face.
The four seasons didn't stay in the East Grand Courtyard for long. After all, boys and girls didn't eat together when they were seven years old. Although they had the same father, they still had to avoid arousing suspicion.
The four concubine-born sisters left the East Grand Courtyard and hadn't returned to their loft yet. Jia Xie, who was originally laughing and looking frivolous, immediately became serious. He summoned Jin Zhuang, who usually had a low presence, and squinted his eyes and asked with a sneer,
"You must have the slave contracts of all the servants in the East Grand Courtyard in your hands."
Jin Zhuang, who had a very common face, replied, "They are all in my hands. I guarantee that Madam can't sell them even if she wants to."
"Oh, then I can rest assured for the time being."
Jia Xie put away his unique sneer. Just as he was about to imitate the romantic old scholar and smile while stroking his beard, Copper Coin suddenly opened his mouth.
"Madam can't sell the servants in the East Grand Courtyard, but she can add more servants!"
Silver Ingot gave a thumbs up and echoed, "Copper Coin is right.
It's not bad to add more servants, but I'm afraid that Madam has a deep plan and plans to add a bride to your brothel.
Of course, with your handsomeness, it's the most suitable thing to add a bride to your brothel. The problem is, Madam has just passed away. According to the rules, you have to observe mourning for at least a year.
If you add a bride to your brothel at this time, I'm afraid that your reputation … "
Reputation?
Of course it wouldn't be good …
He might be said to be greedy and unfilial for the rest of his life …
And don't forget, Lady Jia was His Holiness's wet nurse!
The current His Majesty had some familial affection for Old Madam Jia. If he knew that Jia She didn't learn well during the mourning period and played the drama of a beautiful woman adding incense to a brothel, he would certainly have an opinion on him.
In the end, although he agreed to Lady Jia's dying request and let Jia Xie inherit the title of nobility, the title of nobility would be greatly reduced …
Jia Xie, who understood this, took a deep breath and felt bitter in his heart.
This was his biological mother ah. She was biased to the point that her armpits, her eyes, and her heart only had Second Brother ah. She treated him as if he was an enemy of her social class. She did whatever she wanted to do to him.
Jia Xie thought that he might as well follow her wishes and become a greedy and shameless man. Anyway, Sheng Ge of the Wang Family said that becoming a greedy and shameless man wouldn't hinder him from inheriting the title of nobility.
But every time he thought of his grandmother's expectation of him before she died, Jia Xie couldn't bear to let his grandmother worry about him, this unfilial grandson, in the netherworld.
Jia Xie sighed with flagging interest, "You three make the arrangements. As people carefully selected by grandmother, I believe that you can do it well."
Now that he had free time, he should go back to his room and copy the Buddhist scriptures.
When grandmother was alive, she liked to abstain from meat and pray to Buddha. He couldn't abstain from meat and pray to Buddha, and he didn't like reading, but he could still copy the Buddhist scriptures. He could copy the Buddhist scriptures and burn them in front of grandmother's memorial tablet to express his sincerity.
Jia Xie went back to the study and quietly copied the Buddhist scriptures, preparing to burn them after he finished.
On the other hand, Charming encountered a big problem. She didn't know who she should choose to possess.
Wu Mei originally planned to choose a lady from an aristocratic family to possess. She looked for a long time and finally found a lady from an aristocratic family who was seriously ill and was about to die. When she was about to possess her, she hesitated.
Although this lady from an aristocratic family had a good family background, she also liked to be outstanding. Even if she married into the Jia family in Rongguo Province with this body, she could still compete with the biased Lady Jia.
However, as she listened to the analysis of the Little Mouse in the cave, in ancient times, the royal family had the best family background and could crush the husband's family the most.
Understanding this point, Charming gave up the idea of possessing the body. She took out the little rat, who was happily gossiping about the current affairs, from the hole in the wall. Then, she went back to the forest where she temporarily lived and asked the little rat, "What do you think?"
"Which princess from the royal family is seriously ill?"
As a demon god with principles, Wu Mei had a bottom line in her heart. At least, she couldn't choose a healthy person to possess like Su Daji of the Fox Tribe.
Moreover, she didn't possess the person's soul to eat, but to fulfill the wish of the original owner and send the original owner to reincarnation.
Now that she asked this question, she had made up her mind to choose a princess from the royal family to possess.
"No one is seriously ill …" The Little Mouse was indeed well-informed. He kept talking about the news he got from his uncle's third grandson who lived in the palace, "But there is a princess who has been mentally retarded since she was born."
"A mentally retarded princess?" Wu Mei raised her eyebrows in surprise. She couldn't be blamed for making a fuss. Was it really the royal family?
Mentally retarded people rarely appeared in this place because most of the mentally retarded people died for unknown reasons when they appeared in order to cover up their ugliness. Now that Wu Mei suddenly heard that there was a mentally retarded princess in the royal family who lived safely until now, how could she not be surprised?
The Little Mouse squeaked excitedly, "This princess was born of His Holiness, Queen Yuan. When she was born, Queen Yuan had a difficult labor. She risked her life to give birth to the little princess, but the little princess' brain was damaged because she was kept in the belly for too long … Now, it is said that His Holiness and Queen Yuan are childhood sweethearts and have a very good relationship. Although the little princess is mentally retarded, now, His Holiness is taking good care of her."
"Now, His Holiness is quite good. However, this noble one has been in this world for quite some time now, but why haven't I heard anything about a mentally retarded princess in the royal family?"
"They issued a gag order. Now, His Holiness usually keeps the little princess in the palace and doesn't let her run around. That's why outsiders don't know about it. Only our mouse clan is well-informed." The Little Mouse squeaked and praised itself in the end.
Wu Mei smiled faintly and rubbed the Little Mouse's head. She said, "This noble one will personally go to the palace. Are you going to follow this noble one or return to your home?"
"I really want to follow Your Highness, but I want to go home even more!" The Little Mouse said somewhat dejectedly, "Your Highness, can I come and find you often in the future?"
Wu Mei thought that she was determined to marry Jia Xie, so she told the Little Mouse the address of Rongguo Province.
After the Little Mouse ran away like a wisp of smoke, Wu Mei hid her tracks and ran to the palace.
Wu Mei's luck was quite good. As soon as she entered the palace, she didn't have time to summon animals and ask about the residence of the mentally retarded princess. She heard a panicked palace maid shouting, "Someone, come quickly! The eldest princess fell into the water!"
Wasn't the eldest princess the 'mentally retarded princess' that the Little Mouse mentioned?
Wu Mei immediately transformed into a gentle breeze and floated to the location of the incident. With just a glance, she could tell that the reason why the eldest princess, who was gradually sinking into the water, was mentally retarded wasn't because she was held in her womb for too long. Instead, it was because she was an empty shell without a soul.
A person without three spiritual and seven physical souls was undoubtedly like a puppet.
Wasn't this eldest princess a mentally retarded puppet who relied on human instincts to eat, drink, defecate, and sleep?
However, this was good. She was the most suitable host body for her.
Wu Mei's thoughts turned, and she immediately threw herself at the eldest princess who was floating in the water. In the blink of an eye, Wu Mei became her …
…
Wu Mei, who was already a human, was saved by her half-brother from the same mother, the current crown prince, who personally jumped into the water to save her.
After the current crown prince saved Wu Mei, he didn't care about his sorry state and personally ran back to his residence with Wu Mei in his arms.
"Where are the imperial physicians? Where did they go?
If anything happens to the eldest princess, I will definitely bury all of you with her. "The crown prince, who was wearing wet clothes, said with a cold look in his eyes.
He didn't expect that when his Imperial Father left for a while, his younger sister, who his Imperial Mother risked her life to save, almost lost her life.
