Chapter 628: Wife HelpBeat the Servant

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Only, Eunuch Li, I have only visited the Imperial Residence twice, and I noticed the lack of respect the servants here show towards the Prince!”

Liu Shimei’s voice was cold, carrying an unmistakable severity. “His Highness is naive and ignorant of these social intricacies. But that cannot be an excuse for the servants of the Imperial Mansion to disrespect him!”

She made it clear that it wasn’t Eunuch Li’s concern, but as the steward, aren’t the servants of the Imperial Mansion all treating their master this way? Wasn’t he responsible?

No, he had to take full responsibility!

Huangfu Lingyao thought, ‘My wife is quite eloquent. She uses the servants’ lack of respect for their master as an excuse to elevate Eunuch Li, but in reality, she is controlling the situation through him. Cunning, truly cunning! My wife is so clever; she doesn’t have to worry about being bullied after entering the family.’

Eunuch Li, who had experience in the palace and had seen the ways of the world, wouldn’t lose his composure over a few words from a future mistress.

He promptly replied, “Eldest Young Miss Liu is right, this old servant is at fault for not disciplining the servants of the Imperial Residence properly. Please, Eldest Young Miss Liu, punish me!”

“No need for punishment,” Liu Shimei said calmly. “Just a gentle reminder for Eunuch Li. I haven’t officially entered this household yet; I cannot act as the mistress of the Imperial Residence. I am merely offering sadvice to Eunuch Li. If there is any disrespect, please forgive me!”

Her posture was impeccable, indicating that she wasn’t overstepping her boundaries or trying to exceed her role. She wasn’t someone trying to overshadow the Emperor; she was simply addressing the current situation!

Eunuch Li was a shrewd person; how could he not understand the underlying meaning behind her words?

Eldest Young Miss Liu’s every word and expression conveyed a clear message: I haven’t entered the door yet, so I don’t have the authority to control you now. But if everything remains the safter I enter, don’t blme for not showing mercy to you!

When she entered, the servants in the mansion would understand one thing: whoever they wanted to harm, they could harm without consequences!

Immediately, Eunuch Li spoke, “Today, Fugui offended the Prince. I will handle the matter with Fugui. The gatekeeper will be replaced with someone clever and obedient, but please rest assured, Your Highness!”

A faint smile played on Liu Shimei’s lips, showing her satisfaction. “Thank you, Eunuch Li.”

Her face remained composed, but inside, she felt a strong sense of wariness towards Eunuch Li!

Understanding her intention, Eunuch Li didn’t say he would obey her but reassured the prince instead. He stated his position clearly: I belong to the King Dun Yu’s Mansion, and my master is Lord Huangfu Linyao!

Having such a formidable person by Huangfu Linyao’s side made Liu Shimei extremely worried. She thought, ‘It’s almost July, and there are still over two months until the grand wedding after the Double Ninth Festival. I’m afraid I need to familiarize myself with the relationships among the people in this mansion in advance to avoid stepping into traps unknowingly.’

Of course, mere understanding was not enough; she had to start planning. ‘I need to strategize. After entering, I must set traps for them to fall into, preferably finding a reason to send Eunuch Li away. Otherwise, I don’t know whether this Eunuch Li belongs to the Emperor, the Empress, or someone else. Having him here is detrimental to bothand Linyao!’

Cultivating her own allies was crucial; anything unclear should not be relied upon!

Meanwhile, Eunuch Li had already sent someone to deal with Fugui. “Disrespecting the Prince, the punishment is death! According to the rules, he should receive fifty lashes, regardless of life or death!”

Before long, the sound of the paddle striking flesh echoed from outside the hall, accompanied by the pitiful cries of Fugui.

With the demonstration made, Liu Shimei turned to Huangfu Linyao and said, “Linyao, hurry and showyour what your ‘good stuff’ is!”
