The Master of the Prefecture [5]

Concubine Xue hurriedly pulled Xiao Yun. This big of a crime, if it was pointed at their heads, they wouldn't be able to endure the consequences. What they suffered today, they could only hold it in!

Third young miss, don't be mad. It is me who was too reckless, saying inappropriate words. The third young miss said the right thing. I should slap myself. Half the side of Concubine Xue's face was still swollen. She looked towards Xiao Yuan Cheng, her eyes filled with grievances. The eyelids were slightly red and swollen.

Huang Bei Yue smiled: Since the concubine admits that she is wrong, it's not good if I punish too harshly. Just slap yourself three times and it will be fine. Dong Ling had already slapped once so the other two, Xia Ni will do so.

On the surface, she was purposefully letting her go as she is making Xia Ni slap her. She definitely won't slap too harshly. But letting a maid slap her own master, that would be a deep insult!

Concubine Xue bit on the bottom of her lips and that Xia Ni immediately kneeled on the ground: This maid doesn't dare to!

Useless thing. What is the point for the prefecture to take care of you then? You won't even listen to the master's words! Huang Bei Yue's face turned cold: Pull her off and hit her ten times with the plank!

The servants who stood outside looked at each other. They knew that today wasn't like the past anymore. This Princess Bei Yue, within the prefecture today, was setting up her prestige. Now that she also had the support of the Lord's father, who dared to go against her orders? They immediately went in to pull Xia Ni out to beat her.

From the yard, there came the sound of tragic screaming. The maids in the front hall all held pale white faces. They knew that Princess Bei Yue was a figure who would not change her decisions at all!

Huang Bei Yue faintly glanced at Concubine Xue: Xia Chun, you come.

Yes. With Xia Ni, this lesson learned from the previous mistake, Xiao Chun didn't dare to hesitate at all. She walked up, exclaiming to Concubine Xue: Concubine, this maid is receiving the orders to do so. Please don't blame it on me.

As she finished, she slapped the two sides of her faces with two hands. The two slaps fell on her face, not being vague at all!

Xiao Yun tightly held onto her fist. Concubine Xue clenched her teeth. After she was slapped, she tugged at her swelled face, standing up to salute to Huang Bei Yue: Thanks third young miss for showing some mercy.

As long as the concubine remembers her lesson. Huang Bei Yue faintly announced, not looking at her anymore. She looked towards Xiao Yuan Cheng, on the other hand: Father, Bei Yue is still young and doesn't know her manners. There are some things that aren't resolved in the best way they can be. I will be troubling you to remind me sometimes.

Remind her? Xiao Yuan Cheng snorted. What happened before, was there room for him to remind her? This girl has a fluent mouth and even the black could be said as white. not only that, there was no space for them to even go against it!

The poison of the mouth, he Xiao Yuan Cheng had seen this for the first time in his whole life!

His woman, his daughter, and son had all been wronged yet there was nothing he could do about it. He could only glare at her. Don't mention how unhappy he was in his heart!

Humph, your matter, you look to see how to resolve it. However, the concubines are still your seniors. You are the junior. You should know the appropriate behaviors and not let outsiders say that there is no order within the prefecture of Princess Zhang!

Yes, Bei Yue will definitely take this to heart. Huang Bei Yue nodded her head modestly. Then she changed the subject all of a sudden: The matter that Bei Yue had brought up, how did the father think about it?

Xiao Yuan Cheng humphed loudly from his nose: This matter, let's talk about it when you're older! Right now, it's not the best time!

Huang Bei Yue slowly sat down, playing with the tassels on the hem of her dress: Father is scared that I won't be able to manage after the prefecture of Princess Zhang?

You're still young so naturally there will be places where you didn't consider about!

Father's worry isn't without reason. I am young and don't have experiences but in the future, one day, the prefecture of Princess Zhang will be managed by me. Therefore, some things, what I need to know, I should know about it earlier. I see that today, we should let housekeeper Zhou bring the account book over so I can first view it and then slowly learn about it in the future.
