Chapter 162 Giving Up Dignity
He sent Ji Mingzhu back to his house and had a meal with her.
At night, Xie Yunzheng was urgently summoned to the palace.
After leaving, I didn't come back for several days.
I heard that the emperor's situation was not good, and all forces were ready to take action.
Ji Mingzhu felt the tense atmosphere even when she stayed in the Duke's mansion.
The scandal about the imperial concubine also spread among the noble circles.
Girls from ordinary families need to maintain a good reputation, and concubines in high positions are no exception.
Everyone knew that even if the imperial concubine was lucky this time, she could escape.
It is almost impossible to regain favor in the future.
I know what Du Peifang has done.
Fortunately, the imperial concubine suddenly got involved with a wild man, and was captured on the spot by the empress.
There are so many witnesses that it is impossible to defend.
Du Peifang had an intuition that what she said to her aunt on the day she entered the palace was leaked.
She was puzzled. When did it leak out?
She and her aunt were obviously the only two people in the palace that day.
The palace was so big, and they deliberately lowered their voices. Even if someone eavesdropped, they probably wouldn't be able to hear anything.
In a flash of lightning, Du Peifang thought of what happened the night she entered the palace.
That night, the Duke stayed in her room.
Suddenly, someone came to the front yard and said that Xie Yunzheng had something important to do with the Duke, so he hurriedly invited the person there.
She had decided to have a baby.
So I stayed up all the time, reading my storybook and waiting for the Duke to come back.
How she fell asleep later, she didn't know.
When she woke up the next day, everyone looked at her strangely.
After asking, I found out that she actually revealed her true thoughts.
In front of a room full of servants, she called the Duke an old man and cried out her grievances.
It is said that the Duke looked very ugly when he left.
After that, she never saw the Duke.
When she went to the study in the front yard to find someone, the servant wouldn't let her in, but that bitch Lin's wife could go to the study every day to add fragrance to her red sleeves!
Du Peifang has been having a hard time during this period, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is like thin ice.
She was so anxious all day that she ignored a question.
She didn't drink or get sick that day, so why did she suddenly become possessed and talk nonsense in front of the Duke?
After thinking about it, Du Peifang felt that someone was harming her.
She had doubts about Princess Anhe, she had doubts about Ji Mingzhu, and she even didn't let go of the concubine in the backyard.
I never doubted Xie Yunzheng.
In Du Peifang's view, she is just a housewife.
Even if she had conflicts with the princess and Ji Mingzhu, they were all internal matters.
Xie Yunzheng is a man and will definitely not interfere in their affairs.
Now that something happened to the imperial concubine, the situation was not glorious.
It was obvious that her proposal was based on her aunt.
Only then did Du Peifang react.
She was harmed by Xie Yunzheng.
In this house, he is the only one who can accomplish these things without even knowing it!
"I want to go home, I want to see my father! He is Xie Yunzheng's teacher. Once a teacher, always a father, Xie Yunzheng will definitely give him face!"
Du Peifang was extremely scared.
The aunt cannot protect herself. If she does not repair the relationship with her family, she will really have nothing to rely on.
The deep house can eat people, and she doesn't want to die. I don’t want to be suppressed all the time.
If this continues, she will be driven crazy sooner or later!
Xiaomei stopped her, "The princess said you are not allowed to leave the courtyard."
"I want to go back to my parents' home, why should she stop me!"
There was an spy from the princess in their courtyard, and Du Peifang shouted so loudly that Xiaomei was frightened to death.
He whispered: "The princess is the mistress of the house. She won't let us go out. What else can we do?"
Being bullied by the Xie family one after another, Du Peifang was so aggrieved that she burst into tears.
"Am I going to be trapped here for the rest of my life and never get out?"
Xiaomei pursed her lips.
The wife is a common wife in name, but she has a legal wife above her, so her situation is no different from that of a concubine.
If the mistress doesn't nod, who of the women in the backyard can get out?
Unless there is the favor of the male master!
But the last time Madam was possessed by evil spirits, she talked nonsense and offended the Duke...
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Xiaomei persuaded her earnestly, "Even if you return to your parents' home and bring in reinforcements, the Tutor's hands can't reach the backyard of the Duke's Mansion. It will be just as easy for the Princess and Ji Mingzhu to punish us."
Du Peifang couldn't hear this.
She is the direct daughter of the Taifu. Even if the relationship between her and her mother's family becomes cold, it will only be temporary.
"Why should Ji Mingzhu put me down?"
Du Peifang was tough-mouthed, but she knew in her heart that Xiaomei's words were right.
She just couldn't beat Ji Mingzhu in the Duke's Mansion.
Even if that person is just a poor person!
After losing her temper, Du Peifang felt even more powerless.
He murmured to himself: "Can I just wait to be made a fool of?"
"Of course not."
Xiaomei whispered: "As long as you can make the Duke of Guo change his mind, are you still worried about not finding a chance to turn around? To put it bluntly, the princess is old and may be gone. Then the Duke's Mansion, isn't it? Are you in charge? ”
"As long as you keep the Duke in your hands and give birth to a son, your life will not be too bad, no matter whether you have the support of your mother's family or not."
He pointed in the direction of the east courtyard with his chin.
"Look at Ji Mingzhu, she doesn't even have a natal family. Doesn't she rely on a man's favor to dominate the house?"
"Madam, you have to learn from her when it comes to handling men."
Du Peifang said angrily: "What tricks does she have, she just relies on her vixen skin to seduce Xie Yunzheng!"
Xiao Meixin said, if given a choice, who wouldn't want to grow up like Ji Mingzhu.
She doesn't have to fight for anything on her own; most of the men eagerly bring good things to her.
In the past there was Yuan Chang'an, a talented scholar of the Yuan family, and in the latter there was the powerful Crown Prince.
No matter who she marries, Ji Mingzhu’s life is worth it.
"Your body, hair, and skin are inherited from your parents. Some things cannot be changed, but you can change your dress. Look at Mrs. Lin again. Her neck is exposed in white. It is hot these days, and she is dressed even more outrageously. Half a Her breasts are about to fall out, I guess this is what men do, the Duke of Guo has been staying in her room recently.”
Du Peifang's face turned red with anger, "You want me to imitate that bitch? I will be shameless if word spreads!"
Xiaomei's lips moved, "If you don't go astray, what can you do to win back the heart of the Duke?"
Although Xie Guogong is old, he is in a high position, and many women follow him, fawning and favoring him.
Once forgotten, in a few years people will grow old and lose their appearance, and there will really be no room for improvement.
Du Peifang lay on the case and cried bitterly.
She didn't know what was going on, but everything went wrong for the pair of Shang Ji Mingzhu.
Now that neither her aunt nor her family can count on her, what self-esteem does she have?
After crying for an unknown amount of time, Du Peifang made up her mind.
"Prepare me new clothes."
She wanted to capture the Duke's heart again.
Otherwise, when Xie Yunzheng finishes taking care of the outside affairs, they may have to turn around and deal with her again.
As long as you can turn over.
She doesn't want dignity anymore!
