Chapter 277 Taking Advantage of Every Opportunity
"Since the sudden death of old Family Head of Mingpei Hall and his wife several decades ago, things have been unstable there. I have heard in private that if you hadn't helped Shen Xuan at that critical moment, Shen Xuan and Shen Zhou couldn't have made the people from the collateral branches obey so quickly. Now there are many heirs in Mingpei Hall and many of them are known to be talented in the capital, like Shen Cangfeng. A lot of them are married to people from the other gentlefolks. So, how could His Majesty not worry?"
Wei Xinyong said blandly, "As for us, the Wei Family in Fengzhou, with all due respect, unrelated people don't know the real reason why you and Wei Qi both resigned, but His Majesty must have known it. My Family Head, after you resigned, I guess you unwillingly recommended Wei Qi to take over the vice-premier position as that was secretly suggested by His Majesty, right? His Majesty has trusted and thought highly of Wei Qi, but do you believ

It was in the capital.It was not until the day after the banquet that Wei Changying learned of the news that Su Yuwu had been seriously injured and poisoned, and that her second aunt, Wei Zhengyin, had requested Ji Qubing to get into a carriage and set off to Eastern Hu to save her son. ''Miracle Doctor Ji has lost his temper and refuses to come." "Young madam, Miracle Doctor Ji said that you are very healthy. There is no need for him to keep coming to visit you." "Miracle Doctor Ji is outside. Young madam, you should rest assured." During the days before her labor and even on the day of her labor, she had heard all these lies.Also, when during her month of rest, Mrs. Huang had said, "Miracle Doctor Ji said our tiny young master is very healthy and will be free from illnesses and disasters for the rest of his life." That was also complete nonsense.Having learned the truth, Wei Changying was very angry. However, as for the fact that We

After arriving at the capital, as they hadn't finished their antidote treatment, both Su Yuwu and Pei Kai stayed at the Ji Family so that Ji Qubing could treat them easily there.Ji Qubing's erratic temperament was notorious. Despite what had happened on the road, he started again though they had just gotten back to the capital. He completely ignored that the humble doctor from the Liu Family almost begged him to be an assistant. Neither did he accept Wei Zhengyin and or Pei Family's request that they would like to offer some meticulous maidservants to serve amongst the Ji Family. He only allowed people to carry his two patients in through the door and then slammed the door, shutting everybody including Wei Zhengyin outside.Everyone looked at one another with dismay, worrying that they might agitate him so much that he would stop the treatment. As it was an extremely awkward situation, the door opened again. A small head poked out. Ni Weiyi, a maid

The news that Pei Meiniang was pregnant spread, and the whole Shen Family was overjoyed.Because the Grand Preceptor's family was not directly related to hers, people there didn't have very strong feelings about the news. Thus, they just gave their congratulations and sent her gifts out of courtesy.Shen Zhou, the Count Xiangning, was delighted. He buried the hatchet and rewarded his eldest daughter-in-law with a set of fancy jewelry that had been left by his late wife. This officially displayed that Pei Meiniang would no longer be in her father-in-law's disfavor. Her eldest sister-in-law Shen Cangzhu, who was widowed without a son, was very concerned about the heir-to-be of her old family. On hearing the news, she only wished that she could take extremely good care of Pei Meiniang. She also promised that after Pei Meiniang gave birth, she would return the right to run the household to her, regardless of the gender of the baby.In additi

Pei Meiniang asked her maidservant Manman to spread the word. As expected, Wei Changying sent someone to tell Wei Zhengyin about it almost immediately. Upon receiving the news, Wei Zhengyin intentionally went out just to bump into Mrs. Deng. After taking a closer look, she did realize something was off.When she returned to her room, she spoke to Granny Qu, “Mrs. Deng is hiding her pregnancy on purpose. It’s obviously because she doesn't want Madam Qian to use this as an excuse to control her. Do you think whether we should…?”However, Granny Qu reminded her, “Isn't it a good thing for first young madam to leave the capital with first young master? The second young madam is now back at her mother's house, and the rear courtyard is now run by both first young madam and third young madam. With first young madam gone, third young madam will be the only one in charge. The young madams have been in charge for a few years now, and third young madam is capable and

Wei Changying finally chased Shen Cangning away after giving her many excuses, yet she couldn’t help but ponder over Princess Anji’s beaded flower. Shen Cangning badgered Princess Anji and swapped her own golden hairpin for this beaded flower. Despite being well known for her fierceness, Princess Anji was actually in a very difficult position in the royal palace, and getting married was her only chance.Princess Anji was very careful and cautious in this matter. The Princess herself had said that she was not in a hurry as she had only reached her marriageable age this year! But now she suddenly asked Shen Cangning to reach out to Wei Changying. Although Wei Changying did not tell Shen Cangning what was going on, it was undeniable that Princess Anji was in a hurry.These days, Wei Changying, who was in labor and confinement after giving birth, neglected a lot of things. She wouldn’t be able to garner enough focus to ponder why Princess Anji was panick

“Mother, I’m only here because of you.” Princess Anji did not want to make her mother sad. Hence, she comforted her immediately, “Mother, if it weren’t for you being here with me, my life here would be miserable! Look at my royal sister Lingxian. Isn't it sad that she’s all alone with no one beside her?”Madam Zhenyi sighed, “I’ve only taken care of you for a few years. If it hadn’t been for you, I wouldn’t have lived till now. I can’t even protect you. Your eleventh royal brother would never have set you up if it hadn’t been because of me.”“He has always had ill intentions anyways. Perhaps, he would’ve still found me annoying even if I’ve not provoked him at all.” Princess Anji didn't like this royal brother of hers, who was nominally Madam Zhenyi’s adopted son. In fact, he wasn’t close at all to the both of them. Anji sneered and said, “Let's not mention him anymore. Even without him, royal sister Lingxian is the only person under the name of her

This was obviously great news!Wei Changying received the letter and the gifts happily and generously rewarded Man Lou with a pair of silver collars. When Man Lou left, she eagerly opened the letter to read it.Perhaps due to the war situation in Western Liang, the letter was written in a hurry, and the handwriting appeared to be very sloppy. Overall, in the letter, he reassured her that he was safe, expressed his concerns about her pregnancy and childbirth, and asked whether she and her newborn baby were doing well and how the Shen Xuan couple were doing. Besides, he also sweet-talked a little before moving on to her birthday gift.As there was nothing too special in Western Liang, Shen Cangfeng who wanted to send something to his wife for her birthday could not come up with anything suitable enough. Rather, he and his superior, the Lieutenant General Shen Youjia, had previously set up a trap to ambush the Chanyu of the western tribes, Muxiuer
The Crowned Lady Chapter 285 Madam Gu
When she first heard that Madam Zhenyi was seriously ill, Wei Changying felt a little uneasy and worried. But with Princess Lingxian's unsuccessful invitation and her being unable to contact Princess Anji, all she could do was to wait and see what would happen.After a few days of waiting, Song Zaishui sent someone to invite her for a visit at the mansion.Just two days after Shen Shuguang was one month old, Madam Su personally gave the order for Wei Changying to be in charge. Although Grand Preceptor’s mansion was too large to be handed over to Wei Changying all at once, even a part of it was already enough to make her as busy as a bee. But Song Zaishui was very considerate. How could she not know that it was difficult for Wei Changying to take some time to visit? But even so, she still sent someone to invite her, and the servant wasn’t too sure about the reason, either. Perhaps, there was something important going on. Wei Changying thought a
