As the two were talking, they arrived at the west wing of the bedroom.
The maid Bai Guo led a group of little girls and was not serving in the room. Instead, they were standing outside the door with a worried look on their faces.
When Wutong saw this, his eyebrows suddenly stood up and he started to scold:
"I asked you to serve General Shen, so why are you standing outside the door?
Are you planning to let General Shen, a patient, get out of bed and serve tea, water and change medicines by himself?"
Although they were both first-class maids beside Su Fengyi, Bai Guo felt a little aggrieved when she was scolded by Wutong, but she did not dare to argue with Wutong, and only explained weakly:
"General Shen said that there are differences between men and women, and that it is inconvenient. He has hands and feet, and he refused to let us serve him.
General Shen asked me to find a wheelchair for him to sit in, and then he drove us all out."
Wutong was relentless and aggressive:
"According to what you said, this is General Shen's fault?
You haven't done your job well, His Highness? Do you still think you're right?
His Highness has repeatedly told me to serve you well and not to be negligent or perfunctory. Is this how you serve me well?
Are you all turning a deaf ear to His Highness's words?
General Shen was just being polite, but you took it seriously. You left a disabled patient alone and ignored him. If this gets out, how will others make up stories about the upbringing of our Princess Mansion? "
Among Su Fengyi's maids, Wutong is efficient, strong-willed, and thick-skinned.
If Wutong receives an order to serve someone, no matter if knives rain down from the sky, fire breaks out on the ground, or if someone bullies her with words or drives her away with a stick, Wutong will not leave.
In comparison, Baiguo is meticulous, patient and caring, but she is a little soft-hearted and thin-skinned. When General Shen drove them away, she couldn't bring herself to lose face as a girl and stayed in the house.
Perhaps he heard someone arguing, General Shen Quan pushed his wheelchair and opened the door. When he saw that Wutong had said so much and the princess did not stop him, he understood.
The princess did not stop it, which meant she acquiesced. She acquiesced to Wutong setting rules for Baiguo, and was also using Wutong to tell him the rules of the princess's mansion.
No matter what, this dispute was caused by him, so Shen Quan bowed and advised:
"You all have your reasons, please stop arguing. This is Shen's fault, and I apologize to you all."
Then he looked at Su Fengyi and said:
"Your Highness, please persuade them not to hurt the harmony in your palace because of a reckless soldier like Shen."
In front of outsiders, Wutong and Baiguo both kept silent. It was fine for family members to quarrel, but if they quarreled in front of outsiders, they were afraid of damaging the reputation of the Princess's Mansion.
Su Fengyi looked past Shen Quan and into the room. There was no one in the room, but there were two steaming teacups on the table.
Two people?
So this is probably the reason why Shen Quan wanted to kick out all the maids.
Shen Quan didn't say anything, and Su Fengyi didn't point it out. She just pretended not to know and didn't go into the house. She smiled and said:
“The maids were young and naughty, and General Shen laughed at them.
I have something to discuss with General Shen, please follow me to the study to discuss it."
Su Fengyi walked in front, and Wutong did not ask Shen Quan's opinion, but immediately followed, pushing Shen Quan's wheelchair.
To Wutong, the eldest princess's opinion was an order. Whatever the eldest princess ordered was what it was, and other people's opinions were not important.
Shen Quan wanted to do it himself, so he tried to refuse politely:
"This thing is heavy and requires a lot of effort. I will do it myself."
As a result, Wutong, a girl who looked even weaker than Baiguo, with thin arms and legs, was very strong and pushed the wheelchair so fast that it flew up into the air, and the wheels were spinning so fast that smoke was coming out, for fear that she would not be able to keep up with the eldest princess.
Then, this young girl had poor hearing, so no matter what Shen Quan said, she pretended not to hear and didn't say a word.
Shen Quan, who was completely confused, had witnessed the overbearing and powerful behavior of everyone in the Princess's Mansion, from the masters to the servants.
Thinking about it, he did not know whether to laugh or cry. He could only thank Wutong and followed Su Fengyi into the study calmly.
Everything discussed in the study is important. Wutong's eyesight has been honed from following Su Fengyi for many years, from childhood to adulthood.
Without even Su Fengyi's instructions, Wutong immediately took his leave, quickly closed the door, drove away the others, stood guard at the door, and smoothly completed the operation of sending away the people around him.
First there was Xie Xuan, then there was Wutong. Shen Quan was amazed and exclaimed:
"Your Highness is very good at controlling people. I am ashamed to be inferior to you."
Su Fengyi took the imperial edict and gave it to him:
"It's just that you and I have been together for a long time, we are familiar with each other, and we have a tacit understanding.
This is the Emperor's order to General Shen, please take a look."
Shen Quan had asked Su Fengyi to ask for an imperial decree before, but he was just trying to coax her. He never thought that she would actually ask for it. He was surprised and said:
"I am too shallow. Your Highness is so powerful that you actually asked for the Emperor's order?"
It seems that he greatly underestimated the eldest princess' influence on the court and the emperor. No wonder the eldest princess had made such a solemn promise before.
Su Fengyi felt guilty after being praised by Shen Quan, and chuckled twice:
"Easy to say, easy to say."
It takes three months to collect one million taels of silver. I wonder if Shen Quan will faint after seeing this.
This decree was somewhat different from what was said at the beginning. Su Fengyi was not confident enough and felt reluctant to explain it, so she spoke rather vaguely:
"Well, it's half a will."
What is half a will?
Shen Quan was confused by what he heard, and, looking at the imperial edict handed over by Su Fengyi, he always felt that it was a bit too casual for him to just accept it like that.
According to the rules, doesn't one have to bathe, change clothes, burn incense, place the edict on the table, and kneel down to listen to the reading before receiving it?
The eldest princess' casual attitude really shows that she does not take the imperial edict seriously.
Is the princess testing his attitude towards imperial power, or is he really such a casual person?
After hesitating for a moment, Shen Quan decided to skip the red tape and just accept it.
When people get along with each other, tacit understanding and rules are developed slowly.
After spending a short period of time with the eldest princess and observing the ways of the people in the eldest princess's mansion and the eldest princess's attitude towards each person, Shen Quan secretly understood the first principle of getting along with the eldest princess.
That is, in front of the eldest princess, don't worry about what the rules of the world are, just do what she says, what she says is the rules.
The imperial edict consisted of only a few words, and one could see the end of it at a glance.
After reading it, Shen Quan was moved. It turned out that this was what the half of the will meant.
As expected, those who are making trouble have no rules in their actions. The imperial edict was issued like this, it really seems like a joke, isn't it just half-hearted?
But after all, it was the eldest princess who had gone to great lengths to get here, so staying in the human world for another three months was considered a gain, so Shen Quan's expression did not change, he just bowed in the direction of the imperial palace from a distance:
"Sir, obey the order."
The victim was too emotionally stable. Is General Shen's family so wealthy? One million taels, he didn't even blink.
Su Fengyi was really curious:
"General Shen, one million taels, can you really make money?"
Shen Quan answered seriously and respectfully:
"Give me another 800 years, maybe I can have a 10% chance of success. Three months? I'll have to think about it carefully."
Then, facing Su Fengyi's expectant gaze, Shen Quan told a cold joke with a serious face:
"In Shen's opinion, if we want to accomplish something in three months, we can only rob it."
