Lin ngya suddenly changed the topic and said gently. But she looked at these servants coldly at the sa ti.
Steward Deng and Lin Kui didn’t have to co here. But they represented the opinions of the Prince.
In addition to the Princess, the Prince may also have several vice Princesses and concubines. But Long Tianhao needed to let everyone in the mansion knew that Lin ngya was their real master.
Lin ngya looked around and imdiately noticed that there were two maids who dared not look her in the eye.
They were bossy and domineering in the morning. It was too late for them to be afraid.
"Princess, please forgive ! It’s all my fault! I was stupid and didn’t recognize Baishao. I’m sorry I offended you this morning."
Lin ngya had never t these two maids before. They flopped down on their knees and tearfully pleaded with Lin ngya to forgive them.
Their parents were also servants in Prince Yu’s Mansion. The Princess had bought many servant girls and maids from the middleman and they were afraid of becoming useless and expendable. Therefore, they were deceived by Miss Lin and Miss Jiang and started to work for them.
Lin ngya looked at these two maids. One of them got that bruises on her cheek while the other had reddening welts on her hands.
She glanced at her personal servant and found that she was still angry. Lin ngya realized that Baishao had a great fighting capacity.
"You said that you didn’t recognize Baishao and offended her. But I think that you stirred up trouble on purpose. Anyway, you’ve broken the rules. Steward Deng, please tell how to handle them based on the rules of Prince Yu’s Mansion."
Looking at the Princess who was elegant and beautiful, Steward Deng couldn’t believe that she was also a scheming and clever girl.
He thought that she ought to be at the right hand of the Prince and the mansion could beco safe and sound under her supervision.
"These two maids offended Princess. According to the rules of Prince Yu’s Mansion, we need to cancel their residence registrations and sell them to the woman broker if their parents are also our servants. If they signed revocable contracts with us, we will hit them fifty tis with a wooden stick before driving them out."
The faces of the two maids suddenly darkened.
They were no longer citizens of this country if their residence registrations were canceled.
If the master sold them to the broker woman, they would beco slaves and could never get paid.
The young slaves could be sold at a good price while the old slaves like them could only do backbreaking work for the rest of their lives.
"Princess, please forgive ! Please don’t kick off!"
The two maids broke down in tears and cried for rcy. But Lin ngya remained indifferent to their tears.
No one dared intercede for those two maids. They clearly knew that the Princess would punish them rcilessly if they offended her, so they remained silent.
"There are many servants and many rules in the mansion. I want all of you to be vigilant and to avoid bringing sha on the Prince, otherwise, I will not spare you."
The servants of the mansion were scared by her cold voice.
No one dared to look her in the eye. They were afraid that the Princess would follow the rules and dismiss them if they pissed her off.
Looking at their expressions, Lin ngya nodded slightly while Baiji took out a box of red packets.
"This is the master’s reward for your good behavior. Those who made mistakes must be punished and those who followed the rules will have a reward."
Baiji took the box and gave everyone a red packet.
After opening it, they saw three taels of silver and a delicate pure gold chain.
"I don’t know how to reward you and could only give you a little money. You can buy a drink. Please work hard and I’ll not treat you shabbily."
A mixture of stick and carrot always worked. First-class servant girls working for them only had a monthly paynt of several taels of silver, pieces of coarse cloth, and the money to buy make-up.
The manservants and butlers working outside the courtyard were also badly paid.
Therefore, Lin ngya was quite generous and successfully won popularity among servants.
But a beautiful girl suddenly appeared at the door of the Qinglan Courtyard before all the servants left.
Lin ngya glanced at her casually and realized that it was Lin ngwu, her vicious sister.
Why did she co here? How dare she walk into the Qinglan courtyard and offend her?
"Sorry, I forgot to pay respect to you. Sister Princess, wish you all happiness."
Lin ngwu greeted her affectionately but Lin ngya clearly knew her intention. She snorted silently but didn’t show any aversion.
"Get up. What a surprise! What brings you here?"
Lin ngwu wore a goose-yellow gauzy dress today.
She also wore so fashionable artificial flowers in her hair. She looked beautiful and smiled with feigned elegance and modesty.
"I’m young and innocent. Mother told to visit Sister Princess earlier but you were always busy recently. So I didn’t co here to bother you."
But deep in her heart, Lin ngwu really hated Lin ngya who was sitting in front of her.
Both of them were daughters of the Lin family but father and brother only loved Lin ngya since they were still kids.
Although Lin ngya was stupid, she was still the favorite daughter of their father and the only lady of the Lin family.
But Lin ngya thought that she was treated unfairly. As the daughter of the legal wife, she was more privileged than Lin ngya. But she could only look with envy at this bitch’s happiness.
She couldn’t reconcile herself to that!
"It’s alright. But why do you co here today?"
Lin ngya glanced at Lin ngwu faintly. She was all dressed up today. No wonder there was a miasma of stale make-up in the mansion.
"My good sister, it’s all my fault. I was innocent before. I’ve already made an apology to you. Sister Princess, please don’t be angry with ."
Lin ngwu took Lin ngya’s hands intimately. Looking at her behavior, others may think that they were really great sisters.
But Lin ngya remained indifferent and quietly pulled her hand free. In fact, she still rembered everything that had happened.
But it was not a proper ti to revenge herself on them.
"Please co straight to the point. I’m quite busy these days and don’t have ti to chat with you."
Lin ngya directly ignored Lin ngwu and walked to her desk. This was the first ti Lin ngwu entered the main house of the Qinglan Courtyard.
She thought that her mother’s bedroom, which was decorated with carved beams and painted pillars, was magnificent and brilliant enough.
But she didn’t expect that Lin ngya’s room looked more luxurious.
Her bed-curtain was made of the Qingling yarn while the screen was made of fragrant wood. Even the container used to wash the pen on her desk was made of good sapphire.
Everything in this room should belong to her!
Lin ngya was just a humble bitch. She was not worthy of these expensive items!
Lin ngwu fought down her envy and looked at Lin ngya in a friendlier way.
"Sister, I have to admit that we once had a brief disagreent at ho. But these are just family matters. We are sisters and we are of the sa family. Now, we are living in Prince Yu’s Mansion and as your sister, I can’t let others bully you."
This was such a high-sounding explanation. Lin ngya believed that Lin ngwu herself was also convinced.
"Oh, this is strange. I don’t know that I have been bullied."
Lin ngya clearly knew that Lin ngwu wanted to ask her for help and drive her powerful opponent Jiang Ruqin out of the mansion.
This was a brilliant sche but, unfortunately, she barked up the wrong tree.
"Humph! Jiang Ruqin is just a humble bitch! She thinks that she’s a close relative of Concubine De and bullies servants and acts like a tyrant in the mansion. But her mother is just a concubine. How dare she covets the identity of Yu Princess!"
Lin ngya dropped her eyes and Lin ngwu couldn’t see her expression.
Lin ngya didn’t expect that Jiang Ruqin was the daughter of a concubine.
It seed that Jiang Sheng wouldn’t take over the family business in the future and the Jiang family wanted to use the son and daughter of a concubine to please Prince Yu.
These were all old tricks and there was nothing new in it.
"Don’t say that. People who are blessed don’t care about their family background. The Prince is also the son of a concubine. Be careful and don’t offend him."
Lin ngya silenced Lin ngwu easily. In fact, Concubine De ca from an old and well-known family. She was definitely a noble lady.
Therefore, Long Tianhao didn’t feel interior despite that he was the son of a concubine.
But Lin ngwu was very proud that her mother was the legal wife. Usually, she didn’t respect those whose mothers were concubines.
As a result, she was unpopular among the noble won of the capital city.
But they all controlled themselves and suppressed their anger because Lin ngwu was the niece of the Empress and the second daughter of the Marquis Zhennan.
"Yes, yes, you’re right. I was too angry and forgot that our Prince’s mother was also a concubine. But Sister Prince, she slapped your servant today and I believe that she will beco bossy and bully you soday. Sister Princess, you must take action now!"
Lin ngwu was shaless and called Long Tianhao ’our Prince’ affectionately. Lin ngya blushed for her.
Lin ngya picked up the fragrant tea on the table with her slender hands and took a sip. But she caught a flash of cunning in Lin ngwu’s eyes.
Did this girl really have a sche?
But Lin ngya imdiately refuted her opinion. Lin ngwu was stupid and everyone knew that it was she who had poisoned the Prince before. She couldn’t have any excellent plans.
"Well, this baffles ."
Lin ngya pretended to be worried and frowned slightly.
"Miss Jiang is the cousin of the Prince and the niece of Concubine De. Besides, she got Concubine De’s permission before living here. Concubine De may have plans. If I drive Miss Jiang away, Concubine De might be angry with ."
Lin ngya gave her an ambiguous answer on purpose.
In fact, Jiang Ruqin was thick-skinned and she had pleaded to be allowed to stay here.
Concubine De was tired of her pleading and agreed reluctantly that she could stay here.
But Lin ngwu didn’t know this secret, instead, she believed that the reason why Concubine De allowed Jiang Ruqin to stay was that she wanted Jiang Ruqin to beco the vice Princess of the Prince.
She imdiately beca panicked and gnashed her teeth in hatred.
"Sister Princess, don’t worry. I’m here and I’ll get rid of the bitch for you."
Lin ngwu was worried that Lin ngya would accept Concubine De’s arrangent without protest. She could do nothing if Lin ngya was so useless.
She had wanted to instigate Lin ngya to get rid of Jiang Ruqin, but now it seed that she had to deal with this girl in person.
Mother was right. You had to work out a plan and implent it by yourself if you wanted to get sothing.
"Oh? What’s your plan? I’m curious."
Lin ngya smiled faintly, but there was an invisible steel knife behind her smile.
