Chapter 508
Chu Junlan returned to the palace in a depressed mood. As soon as he arrived at the door, he could see the notice posted outside the gate. Four or five servants were looking up and watching, and he was still exclaiming in a low voice:
"Princess Zhang is from a commoner, and she is graceful and fair in her work."
"Yes, yes, actually, I think that the money in Princess Zhang's room is not considered too much. After all, the second young master is still a ill person. He needs a lot of money to seek medical treatment every month, plus supplements, and some precious medicinal materials. After all, the second young master is a legitimate son who is not adulterated. Not to mention using 100 taels a month, it is not much more than 1,000 taels a month."
"That's right, some people have low backgrounds and shallow eyes, and think that the power of hundreds of taels of silver is amazing. In fact, the prince loves his son, and it may be said that it was all the ones that the prince had already ordered."
...
Chu Junlan stood beside these servants. One of them, who was about 40 years old, had actually seen her, but he still pretended not to see her. After finishing his words, the rest of the people who didn't see them were all echoing each other.
Chu Junlan was already full of anger, but now he was provoked by these people in person and immediately ignored everything.
"Which room are you from? After you finish your errands, come to the palace to chew? Do you think this is your own backyard, and can you ask you to stand on the threshold and knock your teeth?"
The servant turned around suddenly and someone found that it was Chu Junlan who was speaking. He didn't know how much she heard her words, so he curled his lips and lowered his head.
Only when he saw Chu Junlan, the forty-year-old servant who had deliberately finished speaking dared to look up and bow his knees and said, "The princess taught him a lesson."
Chu Junlan sneered and attacked the servants who were protruding their heads inside the door.
Immediately, a few servants came over quickly to salute: "The Prince's Concubine."
"Well. These servants are very dissatisfied with the rules of the royal palace. They criticize the princess behind their backs. It is really abominable. Thinking that they are old, I can't bear to fight and kill. If you ask which house they are in charge of, and report to their master, just say my words. If you don't keep such servants, the royal palace will pay them a month to let them go out."
"Yes." Several servants saluted immediately.
Those who are young and work in the outer courtyard, the ones they don’t like most in their daily lives are the kind of servants who stand on their age and are so proud that they promise very happily.
Chu Junlan walked through the corner gate and entered the royal palace.
Several servants were stunned.
"Crown Princess!"
The forty-year-old servant rushed in and stopped Chu Junlan and said anxiously: "Criminal Princess, you misunderstood. I will not be a job today. I just came to check the notice and did not criticize the princess!"
"Yes, Princess, even if you give me a hundred courage, I dare not talk about the princess behind my back."
"Besides, the princess posted the notice in front of the door. Isn't it just someone to come to see you? I'm just doing things according to your wishes!"
Four or five servants blocked Chu Junlan's way, like a wall.
Chu Junlan stood still, smiled and said, "Moms, what are you planning to do?"
Everyone was stunned and didn't understand why.
Chu Junlan said: "Do you still want to fight me?"
The servants looked at their movements and took a step back together.
Chu Junlan said: "The master's right and wrong behind his back is being discussed, and now he is stopping me from leaving. I think the masters in the palace have a lower status than you."
"You are so boring. How can I compare with the princess? I did not criticize the princess. Because I was devoted to the affairs of the princess, I said all the matters. The princess would drive all the servants out without any discrimination. Could it be that any truth from the princess who made the princess' hearts?"
The 40-year-old servant's voice was sharp, not only attracting everyone in the front yard, but many people who were still far away were also lying around.
Chu Junlan smiled and glanced at the servant lady, vaguely showing her a familiar face, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it.
"What do you call this mom?"
The servant was not afraid: "My servant's surname is Geng, and he works as a job in the tea room in the front yard."
"I see."
Chu Junlan remembered who this person looked like. Madam Geng next to Princess Zhang was older, but she looked a bit similar to this person. She looked like a blood relative.
More and more people were looking through their heads. Everyone stretched their necks and wanted to know what was going on, but they didn't dare to get close to Chu Junlan because of his majesty.
Chu Junlan nodded and said, "Since Xiao Geng has said this, I don't know if it's your own meaning alone, or if you all have this meaning, or if someone in your family instructs you?"
Xiao Geng's expression changed: "The princess does not have to worry about it. For the affairs in the mansion, no one in the old people in the royal palace has a good heart. Since the princess heard it and asked, I will not hide my head and tail with you. We just think that the princess has great power, but it is too unreasonable!"
As soon as she said this, the servants were shocked to look like earth.
Little Geng raised his chin and said, "The princess is also the eldest daughter-in-law, after all, why don't he be polite to the mother-in-law at all? The second prince was sick and asked for medical treatment and asked for medicine. What happened to the room as if he was spending money? What was wrong with the extra money? Why did the princess ask for the old calendar to follow? Logically speaking, it was not my turn to speak, but I just couldn't stand it!"
Chu Junlan nodded after hearing this: "So, it was Madam Geng who was capable around Princess Zhang who told you, and you came to find me in public after obedience?"
"It's just that I don't like it, it's not related to Princess Zhang's business!"
"Okay," Chu Junlan nodded, "Since you have such a big opinion on following the old rules, I will send you to Princess Cai's place. You are the one who dares to speak out and persuade the Lord. If you think you have any opinions, you can also explain them in front of Princess Cai."
Seeing that there were already many people around him, Chu Junlan smiled and said, "You may not know that the opinions of following the old calendar were proposed by Princess Cai. Although I was in charge of the cards, I could not disobey my mother-in-law's arrangements. Princess Zhang and Princess Cai are both the prince's concubines, and they are both my mother-in-law. Who do you think I can disobey? Besides, Princess Zhang is well-educated and well-reasoned, and has already agreed to follow the old calendar.
"As for treating the second young master, although I am in charge of the central gift in the mansion, the business in the mansion is still in the hands of Princess Zhang. The prince loves the second young master. How could Princess Zhang disobey the prince's will and refuse to use the money born from the transaction and not treat the second young master?"
Chu Junlan said something, and Geng's face turned red and his neck was still stressing that Chu Junlan was making a strong argument, but Chu Junlan was too lazy to say more.
"Send Xiao Geng to Princess Cai for comment, and then tell the matter about it. The other people..." Chu Junlan's eyes swept over the other few mothers with a rusty face. "As far as I said just now, I will send them back to their respective mothers in charge, and let them do it."
