Professional Ethics of a Concubine

Chapter 39: Do as You Like



Chapter 39: Do as You Like

Ye Qingzhi brought a group of maids and old women, rushed to Aunt Yao and beat her up severely.

This shocking news quickly spread throughout the backyard.

Anyone who heard the news, regardless of why Ye Qingzhi suddenly went crazy, said that Aunt Ye was spoiled and arrogant, even worse than Aunt Yao before her.

The two of them are biting each other like dogs, so let them bite each other. It would be best if they bite each other to death, then the backyard will be peaceful.

However, when they heard that two little figures pierced with silver needles were found from Aunt Yao, and one of them was a lady, the others fell silent again.

They had to admit that when it came to courting death, Aunt Yao was more capable.

Although someone like Aunt Ye who came to the door openly was a bit domineering, she was also upright. However, something as subtle as stab wounds was even more disgusting.

Although what Aunt Ye did was wrong, what Aunt Yao did was even worse. Everyone had some guesses about what punishment these two people would receive, but the specific details depended on the Marquis's intentions.

When Xie Jin got the news, he had just come out of the Jinyiwei prison, and his body was still covered in the smell of blood, which he had just gotten from interrogating the prisoners.

When he heard that Ye Qingzhi had come to beat someone up, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Go back home."

This little vixen has become bolder because of the care I give her.

Xie Jin found that not only was he not annoyed, but he found it quite interesting.

Therefore, he wanted to see Ye Qingzhi's charming little face immediately and wanted to hear how her sweet little mouth would refute this matter.

-

Xie Jin rode his horse all the way back to the Marquis of Jiangyang's Mansion, and then went to Yanliu Courtyard instead of his wife's Guixin Courtyard.

"Grandpa is back!" When Ye Qingzhi saw him, she rushed over and hugged him enthusiastically. She also smiled sincerely and thanked him.

"Thank you, Master, for letting the secret guards protect Ruyi. Master, you are so kind to me!"

Xie Jin pinched her little face in surprise, thinking that she was rushing over to complain or to apologize.

I didn't expect that she was actually grateful to him, and judging from her expression, she was indeed very sincere.

Xie Jin felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. He coughed lightly to cover it up and said unhappily,

"How did I hear that you brought people to smash Aunt Yao's yard? For Ruyi's sake? Are you relying on me to back you up? Do you think I won't blame you for this?"

"I admit that I am a little too spoiled." Ye Qingzhi leaned against him coquettishly, her eyes sparkling and sending him electricity, and she complained coquettishly,

"It's because you treat me too well on weekdays, so I became a little proud and can't stand such a big injustice.

Even though I know that you will definitely make the decision for me, I still want to slap her a few times to vent my anger first!"

"You are brave enough to take responsibility for your actions." Xie Jin bit the tender flesh on her neck without any temper.

"Master, how are you going to punish me?" Ye Qingzhi's body trembled slightly when he bit her, and her voice became more and more coquettish.

How else can he be punished? It's just corporal punishment.

It's just work, she is familiar with it!

But this time, it really went beyond Ye Qingzhi's expectations.

Xie Jin did not punish her physically, but told her to learn the rules well, and then he left.

Just leave!

"Aunt, is the Marquis angry?" Ruyi asked anxiously, feeling particularly guilty.

After having her fill of pleasure and no longer being obsessed, Ruyi was deeply moved by her aunt's defense and revenge for her, but she was also very worried that her aunt would fall out of favor because of this.

Just look at Aunt Yao and you’ll know that the Marquis doesn’t like domineering women. He likes those who are well-behaved and obedient, like the concubines before them!

If her aunt fell out of favor, Ruyi felt that she would have to die to atone for her sin.

"It's okay. The Marquis is not angry."

Although Ye Qingzhi was surprised that Xie Jin left without eating a bite of meat, she was not worried that she would fall out of favor because of it.

Even if she loses it, she will fight for it back. If she really can't get it back, then forget it.

Here is the mistress's thigh. Although her legs are a bit thin, I can still hug her.

-

That evening, Madam Zhang Jingyi sent someone to announce the outcome of the matter to Ye Qingzhi.

Because Aunt Yao used witchcraft to curse the lady, she was demoted to a lowly concubine and moved out of her original courtyard. She lived in the same courtyard with other lowly concubines, with only Nanny Wang left by her side.

In addition, she was confined to her house for three months and forced to eat vegetarian food and copy scriptures every day to atone for her sins.

The punishment for Ye Qingzhi was to make her learn the rules for a month. If she failed the assessment, she would continue to learn.

During the period of learning the rules, you will also be confined to your room.

The ban can only be lifted after one month if the assessment is passed.

Ye Qingzhi was very satisfied with this punishment, especially satisfied.

As for the maids and servants who went there with them, each was fined three months' salary and beaten with three large sticks, and was not sold.

Compared with the seventy taels of silver given by Ye Qingzhi, this kind of punishment is nothing!

The other maids who were not selected drooled with envy when they talked about this, and even looked forward to the day when Aunt Ye would make a bigger scene again.

She needs more people to support her so that they can be selected as well.

-

Ye Mansion.

The news that Ye Qingzhi had beaten Aunt Yao and was confined to the mansion for a month to learn the rules had naturally spread to the mansion because Ye Yongyuan had been sending people to the mansion to inquire about the news.

"Hahaha... this little bitch is so arrogant. She actually dared to do such a thing. Now she must have fallen out of favor!"

When Gu Man got the news, she immediately laughed out loud.

Ye Yingxue also smiled happily, shook her head and said, "It seems that my sister lost herself in the favor for a while, and did such an arrogant and domineering thing."

"When a person is favored, he will be arrogant." Gu Man sneered and said,

"Let's not talk about that little bitch first. Her fate is doomed anyway. The provincial examination will be held in two days. How is Yuan Kai preparing?"

"I think he looks very confident, so there shouldn't be any problem." Ye Yingxue said expectantly, "Mom, just wait for good news."

Of course, before that, she still had one thing to do, which was to find someone to beat Song Yixuan up so that he could not take part in the imperial examination.

She has already found the thugs and paid them enough money. The provincial examination will be held the day after tomorrow, so they should choose to take action tomorrow.

Waiting for good news tomorrow.

However, Ye Yingxue did not wait for good news. Instead, she waited for the officials who came to arrest her.

"Why are you arresting me?" Ye Yingxue shouted in panic.

"You hired someone to harm the provincial examination student Song Yixuan. We have all the evidence. Come with us." The officer said coldly.

"If you resist arrest, we won't be polite!"

When Ye Yingxue heard the accusation, her body went limp and she no longer had the strength to resist.

When Gu Man heard the message from the servant, she was frightened and hurried out to check. She wanted to bribe the officials with silver, asking them to release the man first and be lenient with him.

"Oh, this is a case sent over by the Jinyiwei. You still want to bribe me? You are sending me to death. Get out!"

The officer angrily threw the silver at Gu Man, causing her to scream in pain.

"Mother, please go and beg father to save me, save me!" Ye Yingxue wailed as she was taken away.

Gu Man wiped her tears and said in hatred, "Why is everything going wrong now?"

-

Hou House.

Ye Qingzhi was confined to her house for a month and had to learn the rules for a month, which did help to alleviate some of the hatred the concubines had for her.

Because everyone knows that learning rules is torture.

Therefore, after knowing that Nanny Zhang went to Yanliu Courtyard and started to teach Ye Qingzhi, they were all waiting to see her fun with glee.

Smoky Willow Courtyard.

Nanny Zhang had a stern face and bowed to Ye Qingzhi, telling her that from today on, she had to learn the rules from her and study for four hours a day.

Four hours is eight hours, which is a full working time.

"Mammy, where are you from? Are you the nanny who teaches in our mansion? The first time I saw you, I felt that you were so kind."

Ye Qingzhi took two steps forward, took Aunt Zhang's arm affectionately, leaned close to her, and asked enthusiastically.

"... Madam Ye, please let me go. This is against the rules!" Madam Zhang's stern face suddenly cracked.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm sorry for offending you, Madam. I just feel close to you when I see you, and I can't help but want to get close to you."

Ye Qingzhi let go of Nanny Zhang and took two steps back, still looking at her with a smile, her eyes full of kindness and joy.

Ye Qingzhi was not pretending to be close to her, she really liked Aunt Zhang and felt the joy of seeing a long-lost relative.

She even wanted to get over there and act coquettishly with the nanny.

Could it be that this Aunt Zhang was an old friend of the original owner's previous life? Or was she a particularly close friend?

But this had too much of an impact on her.

Ye Qingzhi couldn't figure it out, so she simply stopped thinking about it.

The main thing is to do whatever you want.

Aunt Zhang,...

To be honest, facing such a friendly and pleasing smile, I can't even get angry.

Is this the reason why Aunt Ye is so favored?

Aunt Zhang calmed herself down, put on a serious face again, and asked Ye Qingzhi,

"My aunt, have you ever learned any rules, virtues, or rules for women?"
