The female supporting role never believes in fate

Chapter 6 Lessons
In the dead of night, everyone who was supposed to rest gathered in the lobby.

Doctor Zhang, a military doctor, was sitting at the bottom of the hall feeling Cheng Yuguan's pulse. The startled fourth prince sat upright, with Lin Jing and Zhao Cheng lining up on both sides.

Underneath, there are still Nanny Chen, Qinglu, the servant of the post station, and the coachman Ma Youliang.

There was such a big commotion in the front yard, the postmen and postmen of the Shangling post station also huddled at the door, waiting in fear for the fourth prince to deal with.

After all, the servants of this inn were also involved in this, so how could they stay out of it.

The fourth prince above was expressionless, scratching the teacup in his hand, making people feel uncertain.

"Your Highness, you are the fifth prince's fourth brother. We have a marriage contract with the fifth prince in our house. The second lady has been with the fifth prince since childhood. The old slave is also served by the second lady's side. Speaking of which, we are all one family. The so-called family ugliness is not exposed. In front of you, the old slave does not hide anymore. The eldest lady grew up in the ancestral home of Chengjia Village. She acted recklessly and without rules, which alarmed His Highness. The servant made an apology to the Fourth Highness on behalf of the eldest lady. After returning home, Madam Miss He Er will definitely give you an explanation."

After what Mother Chen said, Lin Jing and Zhao Chengcheng widened their eyes and looked at her secretly admiringly.

Seeing this, Nanny Chen was also secretly proud of herself, she straightened her back a bit, and looked directly at the fourth prince, as if she had nothing to worry about.

The fourth prince scratched the teacup repeatedly, without saying a word.

The hall was quiet, Cheng Yuguan even breathed lightly.

"This hand."

Doctor Zhang looked calm and asked Cheng Yuguan to feel the pulse with one hand.

"Oh."

When Cheng Yuguan heard this, he quickly put on the other arm.

This time, Dr. Zhang didn't think about it as carefully as before, he only put his wrist on it for a moment, and then withdrew his hand.

"You have not been eating well recently, your spleen and stomach are out of balance, and you have been unable to sleep for many days, which hurts your mind, so you are easily invaded by external evils. I will prescribe you a tranquilizer, drink it tonight, and feel depressed Get a good night's sleep and you'll be fine tomorrow."

Doctor Zhang spoke while prescribing the medicine.

Cheng Yuguan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, "Thank you, Doctor Zhang."

Doctor Zhang has gray beard and hair, with a calm expression, wearing a light-colored Taoist robe, and his demeanor is relaxed. At this moment, everyone in the hall is tense, but he is not in a hurry.With the demeanor of an outsider, Cheng Yuguan was really relieved when he told him that there was no serious problem.

Doctor Zhang wrote the prescription, and Mother Chen gave her a look, and Qinglu was about to step forward to take it, but Doctor Zhang dodged it and gave it to the guard who stepped forward.

"Doctor Zhang..." Qinglu murmured softly, "I am the maid assigned by the madam to the eldest lady, just give me the prescription, and I will make medicine for the eldest lady in a while."

Dr. Zhang didn't seem to hear, "They are all common medicines. They boiled three bowls on high fire to make one bowl, and brought them to Miss Cheng."

Qinglu was ignored by others, and aggrieved, she hid behind Mother Chen again.

Nanny Chen glared at Qinglu resentfully, and then looked at Doctor Zhang, "You said that the eldest lady is fine, so we can rest assured. Let Qinglu do the rough work of boiling the medicine. Qinglu Lu, hurry up and catch up to make medicine for the young lady."

After Mama Chen's words fell, the dancing candles crackled in the hall, which startled Qinglu.

She looked around, the hall was deep, and the guards of the fourth prince lined up on both sides, hiding in the dark, guarding solemnly, adding a little tension to the hall for no reason.

She looked at the gate where the guard disappeared. It was pitch black, like a monster's huge mouth, which made people feel oppressed, and couldn't lift their legs for some reason.

Seeing that Qinglu was being bluffed to no avail like a chick, Mother Chen tapped Qinglu vigorously with her "iron finger", "You are a servant of the Hou's mansion, serving Madam, Madam is not here at the moment, Who can lynch you? What are you afraid of?"

Saying that, Chen Momo glanced at Cheng Yuguan, and then glanced at the silent fourth prince from the corner of her eye, "Eldest Miss beats and scolds you, even if you are right, you have to suffer. When you return home, your wife will give you It’s up to you. Missy is going to brew medicine right now, and you were appointed by your wife to serve Missy. If you don’t cook medicine, will you bother others? Go!”

Qinglu was dizzy after being tapped by Nanny Chen, and subconsciously wanted to go down to make medicine, but was stopped by the guard when she reached the door of the main room.

"Mammy?"

Qinglu turned her head and asked Nanny Chen for advice.

Seeing this, Mother Chen looked up at the fourth prince, "Your Highness, this is a family matter of our Marquis's Mansion. Even if you respect yourself as a prince, you shouldn't intervene at will, right?"

"Noisy!"

The fourth prince spat out two words, Zhao Cheng stepped forward in the next second, slapped down, and scraped Chen Nanny to the ground.

Nanny Chen screamed, her mouth was full of blood, and she even spit out two big teeth.

"Your Highness, what are you doing? The old slave's old face in the Chenghou Mansion for several lifetimes, even Lord Hou has never touched a finger of us..."

Before finishing his grievous appeal, Zhao Cheng followed suit with a slap.

"Snapped!"

The loud slap sound made people's ears hurt.

Nanny Chen finally shut up, fear appeared in her eyes for the first time, she covered her swollen side face and dared not speak any more.

Qinglu was standing at the door at this time, and had shrunk to the door as early as Zhao Cheng's first blow, for fear that others would notice.Where is Nanny Chen, she dare not go there at the moment.

"As a servant, you must serve the master well. Now that Miss Cheng is not eating well and cannot sleep well, it is because of your dereliction of duty. It is useless, and you dare to make noise in front of everyone. Why, you want to ride on the head of the master? You Even Cheng Hou would not dare to tell the difference between these evil servants who betray their masters, even if I teach them a lesson."

After saying these words, Mother Chen, Qinglu and the other three shrank their necks, unable to refute.

Then, the fourth prince looked at Cheng Yuguan with indifferent eyes.

"You are their master, but now you want me to deal with it for you. You owe His Highness a favor. My Highness will help people to the end today. Tell me, how do you deal with them?"

How does Cheng Yuguan know how to deal with servants?She has never used servants in her two lifetimes, and she is not like Cheng Yulou, who was brought up in a dignified manner since she was a child, so she is naturally inexperienced in teaching servants a lesson.

She was out of breath just now, and she could beat them up a few times. Now, when His Royal Highness asked, Cheng Yuguan could only think of asking them to apologize to him.

Shouldn't you apologize for doing something wrong?
"Let them apologize to me."

Cheng Yuguan said with some confidence.

The maid and Qinglu heard the words, their eyes lit up, and they immediately threw themselves at Cheng Yuguan's feet and kowtowed to make amends.

"Miss, I'm blind and offended you. It's that old godly woman who gave me money and asked me to lock you up for a while. As for what evil ideas she has, I don't know at all. I just work as a slave in this station, Give me ten guts, and I wouldn't dare touch the guests of our inn, miss. If you know the details, please spare me!"

The servant girl no longer had the honest look she had when she first met her. Now when she kowtowed to make amends, her mouth was very sharp, and every sentence was someone else's fault, and she was innocent.

The same is true for Qinglu, who knelt in front of Cheng Yuguan and looked at Cheng Yuguan, "Miss, this servant is young and ignorant, and always obeys Mother Chen's orders and never dares to be self-sufficient. The servant also heaved a sigh of relief. You kicked the servant just now, but the servant did not complain at all, and only asked the young miss for forgiveness."

Cheng Yuguan looked at the pitiful appearance of the two people, and subconsciously looked up at the fourth prince.

"It's easy. They apologized, and you can express the tone in your heart?"

The fourth prince said.

Cheng Yuguan shook his head.

She couldn't think of how to deal with them, but after seeing the ferocious faces of the two people just now, the two people in front of them apologized lightly and made amends.

Facing the eyes of the fourth prince, Cheng Yuguan thought of the method in the TV series, "Thirty boards for one person?"

The servant girl and Qinglu were astonished, they no longer pretended to make amends, but burst into tears and snot, and kowtowed to make amends.

The fourth prince shook his head, "It's serious. An ordinary man can be beaten thirty times and his life is in danger. Although they are guilty, they are not guilty of death."

The two who regarded the fourth prince as Yan Luo just now changed their views on the fourth prince in an instant, and looked at Cheng Yuguan, "Miss, the fourth prince is right, slaves and other weak women can't bear these thirty big boards!"

"Then ten boards!"

Cheng Yuguan thumped his hands, watched the fourth prince clap his hands and said.

The fourth prince nodded and nodded his chin, and immediately guards stepped forward and dragged the two of them out, and the screams of boards suddenly sounded from outside the house.

The fourth prince looked at the coachman beside him as if he hadn't heard of it.

The coachman's face was already pale, but at this moment, when he noticed the fourth prince's gaze, his legs softened and he knelt on the ground without saying a word, as if bowing his head and admitting his mistake.

Cheng Yuguan had some thoughts in his mind at this moment, and looked up at the fourth prince, "Although the coachman doesn't speak, he is vicious in his heart. How about twenty big boards?"

The fourth prince shook his head when he heard this, "If you are so cruel, you should either ignore it or make him powerless to fight back. Otherwise, along the way, he will hold grudges in his heart, can you still take precautions against him?"

Cheng Yuguan understood, "Then what do you think?"

The fourth prince nodded his chin, "I'll help you again. Someone, lock up this coachman and lock him up with those fake bandits. We'll investigate and deal with it after we enter Beijing."

The coachman stopped pretending now, and looked at the fourth prince with horror in his eyes, and then he looked at Cheng Yuguan, "Miss, I have a wife and children at home, please be merciful! I am willing to bear thirty big boards, so that you Get angry!"

Cheng Yuguan shook his head, "Don't tell me. In the carriage, how many times did I ask you to stop, from the beginning to the end, you didn't take me seriously, and don't beg me for mercy right now."

In a blink of an eye, the coachman was dragged down by the guards.

Nanny Chen was lying on the ground at this moment, the cruelty in her eyes had turned into fear.

The fourth prince nodded the old slave with his chin, and said flatly, "This kind of spoiled slave who puts herself above her master is not too much to kill immediately. But she is Madam Hou's subordinate after all. Then sign her wrong place, tie it up, and hand it over to Mrs. Hou for disposal."

Cheng Yuguan clapped his hands, "Your Highness is brilliant!"

The fourth prince shook his head, asked the station manager to come forward, wrote a confession letter, handed it to Nanny Chen, and showed the ink pad to Nanny Chen.

Chen Momo looked around. In the hall, apart from the eldest lady, they belonged to the fourth prince.

Along the way, she tried to curry favor with Lin's guards, but she still couldn't figure out what to do. She only saw that the eldest lady and the fourth prince's subordinates were getting acquainted with each other day by day.

Right now, no one can intercede for herself, and Nanny Chen simply signed the confession.

On it, all her dereliction of duty and arrogance are written. With this thing, even if she returns home, Madam will have nothing to say.

It can't be said that for the sake of face, Madam has to punish herself severely.

Thinking of this, Nanny Chen's vigor and spirit all along the way instantly fell apart, and she was dragged down by the guards like a dead dog.

Although Cheng Yuguan still had a fever at this time, after the good show of the fourth prince's reasonable and well-founded handling of the servants, her energy and spirit came up again, she looked at the fourth prince with bright eyes, and got up thank.

"Thank you, Fourth Prince, for your help."

The fourth prince sat upright and waved his hands lazily, "I'm not out of kindness. As I said just now, you owe me a favor. I will act for you once, and I will instruct you to deal with the servants. These two, you will have to deal with them in the future." Pay it back."

Cheng Yuguan nodded vigorously, "Of course I have to pay it back. I will keep your kindness in mind, and in the future, whenever you need me, just speak up!"

Seeing that Cheng Yuguan was wrapped in a cloak, his eyes were moist from the fever, his cheeks were flushed red, and his face was innocent, the fourth prince held up the teacup to cover the corners of his raised mouth.

On the side, Lin Jing and Zhao Cheng looked at each other, and looked at the ignorant Cheng Yuguan with some sympathy.

This favor is hard to repay, and the favor of the Fourth Highness is even more difficult to repay.Miss Cheng agreed right now, but she was too naive after all.

The two mourned in silence for Miss Cheng, but, after all, they belonged to the fourth prince, so naturally they would not dismantle their master's position.

In the lobby, it was quiet again.

Cheng Yuguan sat on one side, waiting for his own medicine, while the fourth prince quietly sat upright and drank tea.

"Today, I will teach you a lesson, have you learned any reason?"

Suddenly, the Fourth Prince spoke, breaking the silence in the hall.

Cheng Yuguan was also happy to talk more.

She was an ordinary girl in her previous life. She was a good girl since she was a child. She studied hard, took exams, and went to work.

If there is anything special, it is that the older she gets, the more silent she becomes.

Parents said that she was getting more and more withdrawn, but she just followed her heart and didn't want to deal with boring people and talk meaningless things.

Came through time, still born viviparously.

As soon as Cheng Yuguan opened her eyes, she experienced a hemorrhage from her biological mother. She was overwhelmed by the turmoil that night and the plots and schemes.

Immediately afterwards, she was carried by the grandmother to the ancestral house. She grew up in the relatively simple and closed environment of Chengjia Village, and was regarded as a daughter by the patriarch's family.

In this ancient time when there were no guides and no way to go out, Cheng Yuguan almost thought that he was going to die peacefully in Chengjia Village.

Unexpectedly, her grandfather's family, who had long forgotten about her, won and returned to court. Her little transparency regained its value, and she was taken out of Chengjia Village by Madam Chen and the others.

Cheng Yuguan's biological father, Lord Hou's order, the patriarch can't force her to stay. In this way, Cheng Yuguan, who has lived in a simple environment for two lifetimes, is about to go to Beijing and face an unprecedented complicated situation.

The indifferent father, the secretly calculating stepmother, the step-sisters and brothers who are waiting to steal her blessings, and the family of the grandfather who has not seen each other for more than ten years.

There were even servants who charged forward like Nanny Chen, who charged forward on behalf of the master.

Thinking of entering the Hou's mansion, she was alone and helpless, surrounded by other people's eyeliners and subordinates, if someone really wanted her life, she couldn't even drink a glass of water at will.

Cheng Yuguan, a girl who has never experienced this kind of life surrounded by enemies and at every step, is not just as simple as anxiety and fear.

The turmoil at birth, and the conspiracy and trade-offs seemed to be staged again in her life.

Before Cheng Yuguan was ready, Madam Chen and the other three taught him a lesson.

Without Mrs. Hou Yehou, let alone the heroine's schemes, just three servants almost cost her half her life!

At this moment, facing the test of the fourth prince, Cheng Yu was naturally concerned.

This is the experience and thoughts she has summed up in just half a month, and she can't wait to share it with a "stranger".
