Chapter 239: Showing Power
Qin Ruo certainly didn't like anyone spying in her house, but thunder, lightning, rain and dew were all grace from the emperor.
This is the evil feudal society.
At this moment, you not only have to endure it, but also have to be grateful to the person sitting on the dragon throne in the palace.
Madam Xie had told her about these things early in the morning. Since the Emperor had bestowed the Princess's Mansion upon her, it was inevitable that some people would take advantage of this opportunity to put people in it.
In the future, I will find a suitable opportunity to send him away.
Therefore, when Qin Ruo saw the people sent from the palace in the Princess's Mansion, there was no strange expression on her face.
The attitude of the leading nanny made Qin Ruo feel that she would have something to do soon.
The leading nanny said her surname was Liu. She stood up and introduced to Qin Ruo the servants sent from the palace this time.
The people sent by the palace this time included six maids, four servants, and four maids. She was the head nanny in charge of the daily management of the Princess's Mansion.
After Madam Liu finished her introduction, her eyes fell on Qin Ruo, "Princess, these servants are carefully selected from the palace, and they will be responsible for the food and daily life of this mansion in the future. Princess, you have just arrived, and there are many things to do in the mansion. If there is anything you don't understand, let me answer one or two for you."
"The Princess's Mansion has its own rules. As for the maids you brought with you, they have some vulgarity from the countryside. I am afraid that they will break the rules in the future. After I have trained them, I will let them serve the Princess."
Although Nanny Liu's tone remained respectful, she was reminding Qin Ruo between the lines that she was a respected nanny sent by the palace and the manager of the princess's mansion.
After saying this, Matron Liu's gaze moved from Xundong, Yiqiu and the others, her expression becoming more and more contemptuous.
From the moment she entered the mansion, she felt relieved when she saw Qin Ruo's kind and easy-going appearance.
As a country girl with little experience, she felt that Qin Ruo was very easy to control.
The master didn't say anything, so Xun Dong and the others didn't say anything either. The Liu Ma in front of them was obviously trying to show off their power to the master.
When she was in the princess's mansion, even the most respected Madam Zhang was not as arrogant and rude as Madam Liu.
Qin Ruo raised her eyebrows slightly when she saw this, and looked at Nanny Liu with a sharp look in her eyes.
She had no objection to Nanny Liu wanting to discipline the people sent by the palace, but she would not use them anyway.
From what she said, is she planning to control even her own people? She also wants to set rules for herself.
You're so arrogant. Do you really think you're an easy target?
Qin Ziyan, Qin Zimu and Old Lady Qin were all led by Qin Ruo. When they heard that Madam Liu spoke so harshly, they couldn't help but frown.
Only Qin Tiaotiao looked extremely relaxed, as if waiting to see the show.
This old lady actually dared to pluck the hair from the tiger's head. We are going to have a good show today.
"Hey, sister, is this old lady going to set rules for you?" Qin Tiaotiao turned her head and laughed at Xundong and his group.
"Shut up! You have no manners! How can you interrupt me when I'm talking to the princess? You're so young, yet you're acting so rudely. Who allowed you to do that?"
Nanny Liu raised her brows, glanced at Qin Tiaotiao sharply, and started scolding Qin Tiaotiao.
Qin Ruo walked forward expressionlessly, but her eyes suddenly turned cold.
At the beginning, I thought that the people sent by the palace had to give the other party some face.
Nanny Liu's repeated overstepping of boundaries had exhausted Qin Ruo's patience.
"This princess is spoiled! What? Madam, do you have any objection? Madam, you are sent by the palace to help manage the princess's mansion, so I should respect you. But from the tone of your voice, why do you think you are the owner of this princess's mansion?"
Qin Ruo's eyes were as sharp as torches, staring directly at Nanny Liu.
The majesty that emanated from his bones shocked everyone present.
"I advise Madam, you should recognize your own status. I will discipline my servants, and it is not your turn to say anything about them. As for my family, do they need the approval of a servant like you to say anything?"
"Does it mean that I, a princess from the countryside, need to learn some rules from you?"
Qin Ruo felt unlucky when she thought about having to deal with an annoying old thing like Matron Liu every day in the capital.
This has already happened to me. If I continue to endure it, I will become a Ninja Turtle.
Nanny Liu didn't expect Qin Ruo to refute her words so harshly. Her old face immediately fell.
"My princess, you are wrong. I am just doing my duty. I want to remind you that the rules cannot be abandoned, so as not to make you a laughing stock. In addition, my princess has just arrived and may not be familiar with many things in the capital. As the head maid, I will do my best to ensure that everything in the princess's mansion is in order."
Aunt Liu tried to save face and cover up her own transgression with more high-sounding words.
But her flickering eyes revealed her lack of confidence at the moment.
Seeing that Qin Ruo didn't say anything, Nanny Liu seemed to have regained her sense of responsibility and felt that she had frightened Qin Ruo.
She straightened her back, raised her chin slightly, and swept her eyes over the people present before looking away.
"Please allow me to say something, this place is not like your country. Rules and etiquette are the foundation of a person. Princess, as a member of the royal family, please restrain your family's words and deeds to avoid losing the dignity of the royal family. In the future, if you offend the nobles in the palace, you will have enough heads to chop off..."
Old Mrs. Qin, who had been silent all this time, trembled with fear when she heard that she was going to be beheaded.
"Ruo'er..." She walked forward and took Qin Ruo's hand, shaking her head silently at her, signaling her to keep quiet.
No matter how domineering Old Lady Qin was in the village, she was just an ordinary person in the capital, and she had a natural respect for the majesty of imperial power.
Seeing this, Matron Liu smiled smugly.
A girl from the country who was just lucky enough to be named a princess, does she really think she is some great figure?
Today's beating is also to let her know the rules.
The concubine who is now in charge of the six palaces is the Sixth Prince’s biological mother, the Imperial Noble Consort.
Nanny Liu has always regarded herself as the Imperial Concubine's confidant and behaved in an arrogant and domineering manner. She was arranged to the Princess's Mansion by the Imperial Concubine, and naturally she had her reasons.
The Sixth Prince had been repeatedly reprimanded by the Emperor in the court because of this country princess.
This time, the Imperial Concubine arranged for me to come here with the intention of avenging the Sixth Prince.
"Madame Liu is so arrogant! You keep telling me about the rules. It turns out that the rules you are talking about are not for restraining servants, but for restraining masters? You are the one who makes all the decisions. Are the rules of the palace like yours? The princess's mansion is too small to accommodate a big Buddha like you."
Qin Ruo sneered and stared at Nanny Liu with eyes as sharp as a knife.
"Princess Ning'an, I was sent by the palace..." Nanny Liu's expression suddenly changed, and she was interrupted by Qin Ruo before she could finish her words.
"Throw her out!" Qin Ruo shouted coldly. A figure flew over from behind, picked up Madam Liu, flew to the top of the wall of the Princess's Mansion, and threw her directly out of the Princess's Mansion.
The whole set of movements was clean and neat, without any hesitation at all.
