Chapter 54 - 053: Successful Pacification!

Chapter 54: Chapter 053: Successful Pacification!

In the long silent Changxin Hall, Fu Rou, who had fainted, woke up with a groan that startled Mrs. Liu.

Mrs. Liu crawled over to lift Fu Rou, crying and shouting, "Rou Er," then turned her head, her voice hoarse, crawling towards Fu Jun on the other side: "Master! Master!..."

Fu Jun looked at her, and only after a long while did his eyes focus.

The woman in front of him had disheveled hair, and her eyes exposed under the tousled locks were red and swollen from crying.

He raised his hand to brush away her messy hair, her face full and delicate, with fair and lush skin, completely different from the increasingly thin and haggard face of Ning Family in recent years.

So the features on the face before him, even if only half as beautiful as those of Ning Family, appeared more affluent and pleasant due to years of pampering, adding to her natural charm, making Mrs. Liu somewhat significant in Fu Jun’s heart.

But just now Fu Zhen had said, if Mrs. Liu and Fu Rou continued to be unruly, she would make him lose his official status!...

He didn’t want to believe the words of a young girl, but he had seen with his own eyes the intense aura Fu Zhen emanated!

She didn’t seem like a delicate young lady at all, but rather an authoritative figure capable of decisive actions...

He truly didn’t want to believe he had such a daughter, yet he couldn’t not believe!

She also said if he didn’t behave, she would drive him and Mrs. Fu back to their old home in Jiangling!

The thought of it made his blood boil, but she truly dared!

Because this residence, as she said, was indeed acquired by Mr. Ning!

Originally an unclaimed property, why couldn’t the house Ning Family acquired allow the three of them to live there?

Moreover, didn’t Ning Family later say it too?

She said she would exhaust all her resources to leave him with nothing...

Those words truly tightened his heart.

In the past, she gave in, because Fu Zhen was indeed her weak spot, but now Fu Zhen was stronger than her, no, stronger than all of them combined, naturally, there was no need to yield!

Just like during the day, didn’t she throw a booklet at him and tell him to get lost?!

Judging by their recent demeanor, they truly dared to act!

Thinking of this, Fu Jun’s hand suddenly trembled, immediately letting go of Mrs. Liu’s tousled hair!

He even worried it wasn’t covered enough, so he unconsciously patted it a few more times!

——The face was still fair, delicate, soft, and plump, but looking at it again, it didn’t seem so adorable anymore!

He wasn’t a saint; getting angry for a beauty was fine, but to love a beauty and give up power, that he couldn’t do!

He was a scholar! And considered a young genius who passed the Imperial Examination from a small place, after years of hard study to become an imperial official, how difficult it was!

He, he, he, as much as he liked this concubine, he couldn’t lose his principles!

He pulled Mrs. Liu’s hand from his sleeve, got up from the ground, and pointed at Fu Rou, saying, "Go get a doctor! Hurry and get someone over, maybe her leg can still be saved!"

Mrs. Liu widened her eyes in disbelief: "Master, is it just going to end like this? Are you not planning to take care of us?!"

"If I don’t take care of you, I’ll send you to the villa right now!" Fu Jun angrily said, "Last time, when you pushed Zhen Er off the cliff at the mountain, I didn’t pursue it any further. Now, tonight she strikes again, if I truly let you continue, not even waiting for them to drive me away, the government office would kick me back to Jiangling!

"If I lose everything, don’t expect to have a good time yourselves!"

...

After Mrs. Fu took Fu Zhen back to her room, she went to Yixin Hall to organize the servants to drive away the bees.

Fortunately, Fu Zhen had experience, gave quick orders, and after the smoke rose in the courtyard, most of the bee swarm scattered. However, they ultimately needed to be captured to prevent causing harm to others in the mansion.

Although Fu Zhen entered her room, how could she idle?

Soon afterwards, Bi Xi and the rest returned. Li Quan had already finished, and they had Zhang Cheng drive him out. Bi Xi, like a Vanguard General having cleaned the battlefield, strode into the room briskly, followed by a group of maids from Yixin Hall, looking formidable, only missing a bright red cloak around her neck!

After listening to her recount the events, Fu Zhen called for Yang Tong, asking him to bring over the two new disciples from Taishan Hall near Fu Jun, to go together to thoroughly inspect Mrs. Fu and Fu Jia’s usual places of residence to see if there were any loopholes.

Tonight, Li Quan managed to climb into Fu Rou’s backyard, although it was because she sent Zhang Cheng and Yang Tong to manage Mrs. Fu and her son, leaving an opportunity here at Yixin Hall. However, a thorough investigation had not yet been conducted these past two days.

The delightful thing is, tonight Mrs. Fu boldly threatened Fu Jun, as long as he wasn’t so foolish as to be beyond redemption, he should know how to act in the future. However, cautiousness is the proper course, besides warning, prevention is of utmost importance. If something were to happen, even if they were punished afterwards, what losses could be recovered?

Facts proved her actions were effective.

While having breakfast, Yang Tong brought his disciples to report that the carriage Fu Jia usually rode had a loose shaft.

And in the main kitchen managed by Mrs. Fu, Mrs. Liu frequently moved, not only switching the high-quality ingredients verified by Mrs. Fu with inferior ones, but also privately selling the flowers and plants from the back garden.

Just after hearing these, Bi Xi energetically brought over two unfamiliar maids to report again!

"I was wondering how Second Miss could wear materials nearly better than our Miss’s, it turns out half of the materials sent to the cabinet were intercepted by Mrs. Liu halfway!

"It’s unbelievable how a mere concubine could extend her hand so far, seems all the money Master extorted from Madam over the years ended up in Mrs. Liu’s pocket, used to feed lackeys!

"As an inner house woman, how could she accomplish these without someone to run errands for her!"

Bi Xi was extremely angry, once determined that Fu Zhen wouldn’t indulge Fu Jun anymore, she didn’t want to show him any face at all!

Even though Fu Zhen knew Mrs. Liu was unruly in the past, she never heard or saw it firsthand; hearing Bi Xi’s report, she felt she had been too lenient.

She immediately instructed Bi Xi, "Take Zhang Cheng, Yang Tong, and the people from our courtyard, and over the next few days, strike while the iron is hot, quickly gather evidence of Mrs. Liu’s past deeds, try to catch those working for her, don’t make any mistakes!"

Once Bi Xi received the order, she fixated her gaze on the two guards Fu Jun hired with a significant amount of money.

The two were named Luo Yong and Chang Wei. Ever since they were questioned by Fu Zhen one morning and then scolded by her two martial uncles that afternoon, they hadn’t dared to have any depraved thoughts again these past days.

Moreover, having witnessed Fu Jun’s demeanor in front of the Prefecture Chief and Mrs. Fu and her daughter, they regretted choosing the wrong master.

Tonight, after Fu Zhen violently dealt with Mrs. Liu and her daughter and ruthlessly threatened Fu Jun, they discreetly watched from atop a wall.

The two, robust young men, surprisingly found themselves overwhelmed by Fu Zhen’s towering presence, something they had never witnessed in a woman, feeling immense admiration in their hearts.

Later, when the two martial uncles found them, saying the eldest young lady had tasks for them, they followed without hesitation!

At this moment, when Fu Zhen’s gaze finally fell upon them, both lifted their robes and knelt, saying, "We are unworthy, but from now on, we wish to follow the young lady! We will obey her commands!"
