Chapter 367 Apology
Chapter 367 Apology
The eldest lady of the Lu family is just a woman in the inner house. She usually focuses more on the three acres of land in the backyard and knows little about the outside world, especially the affairs of the court.
However, the head of the Lu family often travels outside and is well-informed. He knows the importance of Xiao Jingyi.
He is the most beloved prince of His Majesty today.
A prince who is very likely to be appointed as the crown prince.
How could the Lu family end up with good consequences after offending such a great Buddha?
If Xiao Jingyi comes to power in the future and remembers to settle this old grudge, the situation of the entire Lu family will be worrying!
When the head of the Lu family thought of these serious consequences, he was filled with fear.
When he glanced at the eldest lady of the Lu family standing beside him, he became furious when he thought that all these troubles were caused by this stupid woman.
He immediately slapped the eldest lady of the Lu family and said, "Look at what you have done!"
Then he smiled at the guards who had escorted the eldest lady of the Lu family back and said, "I understand what Princess Yi meant."
"Please rest assured, Princess Yi. I will take good care of my humble concubine and will never let her get in the way of you again."
After sending away the palace guards, the head of the Lu family looked coldly at the eldest lady of the Lu family, and then instructed the housekeeper beside him:
"Madam is seriously ill. From today on, she will be moved to the small Buddhist temple in the backyard to recuperate."
"The household supplies in the mansion will be temporarily handed over to the Second Madam."
The eldest lady of the Lu family did not expect that not only would she be beaten, but she would also be deprived of her power over household affairs and would be placed under house arrest in disguise under the pretext of being seriously ill.
She found it hard to accept it for a moment.
"No, you can't do this to me!"
The eldest lady of the Lu family grabbed the corner of the robe of the head of the Lu family and wanted to plead for herself.
The head of the Lu family pushed her away.
"You've caused such a terrible disaster, and you still have the nerve to talk?"
"Stay in the temple honestly. If you continue to be restless and bring disaster to the Lu family, I don't mind asking the Lu family to change a mistress!"
Looking at her husband's grim face, Mrs. Lu knew it was useless to plead for mercy.
As a husband, he always values family interests above all else.
She has entered the Buddhist temple this time and doesn’t know when she will be able to come out?
Maybe I will spend the rest of my life in a Buddhist temple.
For a moment, the eldest lady of the Lu family was filled with hatred.
She hated her husband for being so cold-hearted and not caring about their years of marriage at all.
She also hated Yun Fuling for using her power to bully others, making her a laughing stock in Shuozhou City.
The Lu family's housekeeper standing by took in the entirety of the Lu family's eldest lady's demeanor and couldn't help but secretly shake his head in his heart.
The Lu family was already in a state of panic because of smallpox.
At this time, the eldest lady could not stay at home and bring trouble to the Lu family.
But the one he offended was Princess Yi.
His Royal Highness Prince Yi has always loved Princess Yi. If this situation is not handled properly, it is hard to say whether there will be such a person as the Lu family in Shuozhou City in the future!
No wonder the head of the family was so angry.
If the eldest lady was a smart person, she should not add fuel to the fire and make the head of the family even more annoyed.
He honestly admitted his mistake and accepted the punishment. There were several young men and women around him.
Wait until the master of the house has calmed down, and let the young master and young lady say a few nice words to him, and then they will naturally be able to leave the Buddhist temple.
It may not be a bad idea to take back the power of the family at that time.
It’s a pity that the little cleverness in their mistress’s head was all used up in the fighting in the harem.
The big picture is not clear at all.
The head of the family must be tired of marrying such a wife!
After the head of the Lu family had the eldest lady of the Lu family sent to the Buddhist temple in the backyard, he secretly thought about how to apologize to Princess Yi.
Today's knot needs to be resolved in time to let Princess Yi calm down. Only then will this hurdle be overcome for the Lu family.
If they could turn hostility into friendship, or even take this opportunity to get close to His Royal Highness Prince Yi, turning disadvantages into advantages, it would be of great benefit to the Lu family.
Yun Fuling was busy until it was time to light the lamps, then she stopped to take a break.
Yaoguang brought the food and said, "Princess, please have dinner first."
Yun Fuling nodded and asked, "Have the other doctors eaten it?"
Yaoguang replied: "The food has been delivered."
"Where is His Highness?" Yun Fuling asked about Xiao Jingyi again.
"Your Highness is at the government office. You will have dinner with several other officials from the government office."
Yun Fuling learned that everything was fine with Xiao Jingyi, so she picked up her chopsticks and started eating dinner.
After a busy day, she was really hungry.
Just after taking two bites of rice, she suddenly thought of something and ordered, "Send a message to Doctor Zhong and the others. After dinner, all the doctors should come to my place for a meeting."
Yaoguang responded, and immediately the errand boy who was waiting on the side went to pass on the message.
Yun Fuling continued to eat happily.
Yaoguang was setting the dishes aside as she said, "Princess, someone from the Lu family is here."
Yun Fuling's eyes were dazed, and for a moment she couldn't remember who the Lu family was.
Seeing this, Yaoguang reminded her, “Princess, it’s the Lu family of the eldest lady of the Lu family who came here to cause trouble today and asked the imperial physician to treat her son first.”
After Yaoguang said this, Yun Fuling remembered this little episode.
But her mind was full of treating smallpox patients today, and she had long forgotten about this little episode.
That’s why when Yaoguang suddenly mentioned the Lu family, she didn’t think of it for a moment.
"What? The Lu family is not convinced and wants to cause trouble?" Yun Fuling raised her eyebrows.
Yaoguang immediately said, "How could they have the guts to do that?"
Yun Fuling has revealed her identity as Princess Yi, and His Royal Highness Prince Yi is also in Shuozhou City.
The Lu family would never dare to do it again.
"The Lu family is here to apologize to the princess."
"And it was the Patriarch of the Lu family who came here personally. He has been waiting outside for more than an hour."
"It's just that you were busy treating patients earlier, and the Patriarch of the Lu family is much more perceptive than his wife. He is also smart. He didn't disturb you and just waited outside."
"And they brought several boxes of apology."
Yun Fuling listened and thought to herself that she was worthy of being the head of the family. She was indeed much smarter than the eldest lady of the Lu family.
Yaoguang looked at Yun Fuling's face and asked, "Princess, do you want to see her?"
Yun Fuling thought that the Lu family was, after all, a big local family with deep roots and flourishing leaves. If she got into a bad relationship with them, it would not be good for her.
Besides, what happened between her and the eldest lady of the Lu family was originally just a trivial matter.
It's just a small conflict, not a life-and-death feud, there's no need to make a big deal out of it.
Now the head of the Lu family has come in person to apologize, which can be said to be a very generous gesture.
If Yun Fuling continued to hold on to the matter, she would inevitably be accused of being narrow-minded and using her power to bully others, which would be unsatisfactory.
After Yun Fuling thought about it, she said, "Just say that I'm tired today and there's no need to see anyone."
"Let them leave the apology, and the matter will end here."
"But this is just the first time, it won't happen again!"
