Long Live the Empress

Chapter 254 Teaching Etiquette

The prince didn't know what he was busy with and didn't return home until midnight.

Fan Ronghua had been waiting in the hall. When she saw the prince come in, she hurriedly helped him take off his cloak. "Is it cold outside? Here is the hot ginseng tea I prepared for you. Have a cup and warm yourself up!"

The prince nodded, blew the hot steam from the cup, and took a sip. Fan Ronghua has indeed changed a lot since entering the mansion. She is like a good wife and a loving mother, serving the prince comfortably, which makes the prince very satisfied. "The second young lady of the Yue family has entered the mansion?"

"Yes, I did come in, but..." Fan Ronghua said with some embarrassment.

"Just what?"

"It's not that I'm meddling. As a concubine, I have to know what it means to be a concubine! But Sister Yue has always been proud and arrogant. She insisted on crying and making a fuss to enter the mansion through the main gate... I persuaded her for a long time before she reluctantly agreed..."

The prince's face suddenly sank, and he put the teacup heavily on the table, "Is there anyone around?"

"How could there not be any? The people probably heard that the most talented woman in the capital was going to be a concubine, so they surrounded the prince's mansion." Fan Ronghua knew that the prince cared most about his reputation, so he explained the whole story in detail.

The prince's face darkened as he listened, and he even threw the teacup in his hand at the end. "I thought she was polite..."

Fan Ronghua couldn't help but sneer in his heart: Knowing etiquette? If she really knew etiquette, she wouldn't have gotten pregnant before marriage!

"Don't be angry, Prince! It must be because Sister Yue is pregnant, so her temper is a little..."

"Starting tomorrow, let the nanny teach her the etiquette of a concubine. Don't let others say that I can't even manage a concubine!" The prince said this with a gloomy face and strode to his bedroom.

"Yes~" Fan Ronghua bowed deeply, his eyes full of satisfaction.

The next morning, before dawn, the teaching nanny broke into Yue Jinghong's yard with several maids and old women.

"Oh, look at our concubine Yue. It's not even this hour yet and she hasn't gotten up to serve the master. She's just sleeping in!" a stern-faced old woman shouted.

"That's right! Look at Aunt Fan, she has already prepared hot water and breakfast for the prince!"

……

In fact, they had wronged Yue Jinghong. Since fainting last night, Yue Jinghong had never woken up again.

The people who came as dowry from the Yue residence were unfamiliar with the Prince's mansion and couldn't even hire a doctor, so they could only worry.

Zhenzhu really couldn't bear it anymore and had no choice but to soak a handkerchief in cold water and cover Yue Jinghong's face with it.

Yue Jinghong was stimulated by the cold air and actually woke up.

"Miss! You're awake!" Zhenzhu cried with joy and hurriedly helped Yue Jinghong up.

Yue Jinghong was very thirsty. Just as she was about to bring some water, she heard a noisy voice in the courtyard. "What's going on? You don't know the rules, so you're being sent out?"

Pearl said in embarrassment: "Miss, you can't hit her. The prince sent a teaching nanny to teach you etiquette!"

"Hmph! Do I need her to teach me? Let her go! Cough cough!" Yue Jinghong said weakly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open and a group of people came in. The leader was an old woman in her fifties. Although her hair was gray, it was combed neatly and her face was expressionless, which showed that she was a strict person.

"Greetings, Aunt Yue. I am the teaching nanny in the Prince's mansion. By the order of the Prince, I will teach Aunt Yue the etiquette from now on! Please take your bed, Aunt Yue!" The teaching nanny bowed slightly.

Seeing that Yue Jinghong was seriously ill, Zhenzhu boldly said, "Please forgive me, Madam! The young lady is not feeling well today..."

Before Pearl could finish her words, she was slapped in the face. "What young lady? Where is there any young lady here? Mammy, I think this little girl should be disciplined!" The black-faced woman had a fierce look on her face and spoke viciously!

The teaching nanny nodded and waved her hand to signal the black-faced woman to do as she pleased.

The black-faced woman was delighted and went out holding the pearl as if she were carrying a poor little chick.

"Mammy, please spare me! I know I was wrong...Mammy..." Pearl's voice became smaller and smaller until it could no longer be heard.

"Mammy, you really don't take me seriously! After all, I am your master!" Yue Jinghong was so angry that she lay on the couch, breathing heavily, looking at the teaching mammy coldly.

"Aunt Yue is wrong! My master is the Crown Prince and the future Crown Princess! You are a concubine! I am a servant, and I am a trader...Aunt Yue, you must know that, right?" The teaching nanny said neither humbly nor arrogantly, not taking Yue Jinghong seriously at all.

Seeing that Yue Jinghong was unable to refute, the teaching nanny made a gesture of invitation, "Aunt Yue, please come to the bed!"

Seeing that Yue Jinghong still didn't move, the maids pulled her out from under the quilt. "Mrs. Yue, please hurry up. You are so delicate, don't let me hurt you!"

Yue Jinghong was isolated and helpless, so she could only obediently put on her clothes and go out.
