Chapter 574:1 Don’t Want to See Madam Zhang in the Grand Chancellor’s Residence Again
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It had to be said that she had come up with a good idea!
After all that had happened, Liu Fuyun had grown utterly disgusted with Madam Zhang.
Initially, he had thought that keeping Madam Zhang around could serve as a strategist for Liu Yan’er, but now, with the scandal involving the Zhang family, he couldn’t stand the sight of her!
He nodded and said, “Very well, within three days, I will send Madam Zhang to the Grand Chancellor’s Temple. She can devote herself to Buddhism and attend to my mother from now on.”
The ‘mother’ he referred to was Liu Fuyun’s stepmother, as he was born to his mother in difficult circ.u.mstances, and she had died shortly after his birth. In the absence of his biological mother, the previous head of the Liu family remarried, and Liu Fuyun’s stepmother became the new mistress of the house. Although she was not a kind-hearted person and had ruthlessly suppressed all the concubines in the backyard, she had no children of her own and had to raise the son left behind by her deceased rival as her own. Liu Fuyun, not being her biological child and having no affection for her stepmother, felt little attachment to her since childhood.
Consequently, when Madam Zhang used her schemes to force his stepmother to the Grand Chancellor’s Temple, Liu Fuyun didn’t object.
Now that Madam Zhang was sent to the Grand Chancellor’s Temple, enemies would meet, and Madam Zhang’s days would be far from pleasant.
This was the best solution that Liu Shimei had thought of: let the evildoers deal with each other. She could focus on being a good physician, saving lives, and earning a reputation for compa.s.sion and medical skills. Why should she personally handle these sc.u.m and dirty her own hands?
It can be said that Liu Shimei played her cards well, successfully avenging the humiliation she had suffered since she arrived here!
Liu Yan’er, her innocence lost, defiled by sc.u.m like Zhang Qingxi!
Madam Zhang, handed over to her wicked mother-in-law for punishment!
Zhang Qingxi, his remaining years ruined!
As for Zhang Wan’er…
Just as she was thinking about Zhang Wan’er, she saw Zhang Wan’er glaring at her, eyes full of hatred!
Liu Shimei felt inexplicably puzzled: Could this girl have been born with her head hitting the ground, naturally brain damaged? Otherwise, why would she dare to look at her with such eyes after she had played her hand so well?
She smiled at Zhang Wan’er and asked, “Cousin Wan’er, do you have any grievances against me?”
Everyone’s attention shifted to Zhang Wan’er, and her face changed color. “Liu Shimei, don’t try to provoke me!”
Liu Shimei had already turned away and said to Liu Fuyun in a coquettish manner, “Father, look at Cousin here, the way she looks at me, I’m so scared!” Who didn’t know that her fear was a lie?
She said she was scared, but where was a hint of fear on her face?
But how could Liu Fuyun not know? This was intentional on her part, asking for his support!
Thinking about whether Liu Yan’er could deceive her way out and fulfill his grand dreams, he gritted his teeth and said, “Zhang Qian, do you still want to keep position?”
Zhang Qian trembled and hastily scolded, “Wan’er, come back! Behave yourself, or else tomorrow I will go to the Cui family and arrange the marriage as soon as possible!”
They were still scheming, planning to find a high-status match for Zhang Wan’er to elevate her status. Even if she started as a concubine, it didn’t matter as long as there was a chance to make it legitimate in the future.
Moreover, if they could persuade Liu Yan’er and have Zhang Wan’er marry the Crown Prince through Liu Yan’er, who would worry about not having the opportunity for wealth and glory in the future?
Threatened, Zhang Wan’er could only lower her head in resentment.
Only then did Liu Shimei call for Mo’er and Changge, “Let’s go inside and check on Second Young Miss’s injuries!”
