The Road of the Concubine's First Wife

Chapter 284

Although Qiao Jiuxiu breathed a sigh of relief with Chu Dichen's support, what he gave was more spiritual support, and he could only rely on himself for many things.Qiao Jiuxiu thought about it for a while. To organize the funeral for his wife, naturally all the servants of the Qiao Mansion will be used. Although these people have different divisions of labor, they have one thing in common. I think that with her age and experience, she might not be able to be the head of the Qiao Mansion.

This is a difficult question, how can we establish prestige in Qiao Mansion?Qiao Jiuxiu thought about it for a while, and now there are not many people in Qiao's mansion who are convinced by her, except for a few maids and a group of people who work in the kitchen, etc., other people are really hard to say.Maybe some of them are waiting to see their own jokes.She frowned slightly, remembering the three methods Yingluan told herself that day.

First, we must kill chickens to warn monkeys, second, we must distinguish rewards and punishments, and third, we must move them with emotion and understand them with reason.The third of these three points is the one she is best at, but it takes a long process to move it with emotion and understand it with reason, and she doesn't have that much time right now.As for the rules of the Qiao Mansion, rewards and punishments have always been clearly defined. It seems that the only way left is to kill chickens and monkeys, but who should we attack to get the best results?
Qiao Jiuxiu frowned slightly. Naturally, there was some knowledge in it, and she needed to study it carefully.Seeing Jinxiu push the door in, she frowned slightly, but said immediately, "Jinxiu, go and call all the servants to the courtyard. Remember, I want everyone to come. If anyone doesn't want to come, Then please leave Qiao's mansion, I will prepare the severance pay and so on."

Jinxiu nodded, knowing that the lady must have an idea.Although the Qiao Mansion is said to have withered, there are more than 200 people from all the servants. I dare not say that these 200 people are all convinced by the lady.So training is also very necessary.She dared to leave, but she heard Qiao Jiuxiu continue to say, "To inform people to come, you call Hongxiu and Ruyi. Qiaoyu and the others should go together. In short, call everyone together as soon as possible. Then you let Yingluan go back to the palace. I'm looking for a formal dress for the princess, the more formal the better."

People rely on clothes, Buddha needs gold clothes, if she wants to calm down all the servants in Qiao's mansion, she has to work hard on clothes.She didn't wear the princess' formal attire, but she knew it must be very grand and special, which could play a certain deterrent effect.Even if the servants look down on her status as a concubine, they should respect the Ninth Princess a lot.

Jinxiu nodded, and naturally knew Qiao Jiuxiu's plan, so she withdrew.Qiao Jiuxiu tidied up her clothes neatly.Chu Dichen had already left, and he must have gone back to the palace to deal with matters. In the past few days, he had to run and take care of him. She felt very distressed.But he insisted again and again, and she couldn't help it.

Thinking about how to speak later, Yingluan walked in, holding the formal dress of the princess, it was indeed the texture of white gold and jade, very noble, and one could faintly see the aura of a born royal family.Yingluan smiled a little embarrassedly, "Princess, your formal dress is still being produced, I borrowed it from the Empress Dowager, you can wear it temporarily, and when your formal attire comes down, return it to the Empress Empress. gone."

Qiao Jiuxiu also felt a little embarrassed, don't blame them, she also had a whim, thinking that only in this way can the ghosts and monsters in Qiao's mansion be restrained.While asking Yingluan to help her dress, she asked how she should speak later.Qiao Jiuxiu felt that Yingluan's usual aura was very good, if she had that kind of aura in her words, no one would not buy her.How easy is it to become Yingluan all of a sudden?
Briefly explaining her plan to Yingluan, Yingluan smiled softly, "Princess, this question is not difficult. You will have the majesty of a princess when you put on formal clothes. You only need to keep a straight face later. Then just speak the official language."

Qiao Jiuxiu nodded, but still expressed her doubts, why should she speak official language?Yingluan then explained that this official language naturally has the emphasis on official language, which can act as a deterrent to a certain extent, and can always remind the group of servants that she is now the Ninth Princess. How many people have the courage What about doing it right with the princess?Qiao Jiuxiu nodded, Yingluan's words made sense.

Yingluan whispered something next to Qiao Jiuxiu again, as if she was talking about some method.Qiao Jiuxiu nodded after listening, even if Yingluan didn't speak, she decided to do so.After changing the clothes, Jinxiu and Hongxiu came in, saying that everyone was almost there, but there were still three or five nuns who did not come. Qiao Jiuxiu also knew these nuns, and they were the nuns who could make trouble in Qiao's residence on weekdays.

They are afraid that they want to rely on the old to sell the old, and look down on this young lady who was born in Qiao's mansion?

Qiao Jiuxiu adjusted her attire, showing a very serious look, and glanced at Yingluan again, "Let's go, let's go out."

They nodded and followed Qiao Jiuxiu out of the room.

The courtyard was full of people, but most of them were looking at each other or discussing with each other. They didn't know what kind of medicine Qiao Jiuxiu was selling in the gourd.When Qiao Jiuxiu walked out of the room, everyone exclaimed.

A phoenix spreading its wings and about to fly is embroidered on the white gold jade court clothes. The eyes of the phoenix are actually made of top-grade rubies, and the whole phoenix is ​​made of gold thread. Natural domineering.Although Qiao Jiuxiu was usually kind and kind, but she was so majestic in her attire, which made many people swallow her saliva, she was really amazing.

Qiao Jiuxiu glanced over the crowd and found that many of them looked at her in awe. She couldn't help but nodded in satisfaction. These people are smart people who know the current affairs.But there are still some people who look at her hesitantly, clearly still weighing, which requires her to show her real skills.Qiao Jiuxiu nodded, looked at everyone again, and then said slowly, "My princess came here today to discuss about my wife, but I heard that there are still people who haven't come, do they think there are things more important than my wife? ?”

Not angry but mighty, some of the timid servant girls almost knelt down, Yingluan secretly sighed, she thought this was somewhat difficult for the princess, but now it seems that she was clearly wrong , the princess handled the matter very well.It seems that the prince really has the foresight to spot Qiao Jiuxiu in the vast crowd.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were on her, Qiao Jiuxiu nodded in satisfaction, and continued, "My princess doesn't know how many people have not come here, but I can tell everyone that anyone who did not show up here, From now on, she will no longer belong to Qiao Mansion. No matter how long she has stayed in Qiao Mansion or how many qualifications she has, she must leave Qiao Mansion for me. "

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.Qiao Jiuxiu didn't take the crowd's reaction, but continued to say, "Before my wife left, she handed over the burden of the Qiao Mansion to me. This princess is also in danger, so if you respect your wife, you must also respect me." , if you don't follow, then the princess can only think that you don't respect your wife. Since you don't respect your wife, there is no need to exist in Qiao's mansion. Do you understand?"

There were a few scattered statements from the bottom, and many people said it, but they were not convinced.Qiao Jiuxiu immediately understood what they were referring to.He only frowned slightly, "Are you dissatisfied with this princess when you speak so quietly?"

She didn't want to use her status as a princess to overwhelm them, but if they had to be so ungrateful, they could only show the majesty of a princess.Seeing this, everyone could only raise their voices, and said again, "Understood." Although it was not neat, it was much louder than before. At least on the surface, they still gave Qiao Jiuxiu face. As for the plan in their hearts , this cannot be seen.

Qiao Jiuxiu naturally knew this too.She divided these people into groups of ten, responsible for different areas and things, and announced the rules of sitting together. As long as one of the ten people makes any mistakes, all ten people must be implicated. Her purpose of doing this is to I just hope that they can supervise each other to ensure that there will be no problems during the funeral.She knew that it might be inhumane to be like this, but in extraordinary times, extraordinary methods were needed.

After Qiao Jiuxiu finished giving her instructions, she didn't let them disperse, but took everyone together to the residence of the few nuns who didn't show up, and then reprimanded them in front of everyone.Then he simply said to let them pack their bags and leave Qiao's mansion after receiving the severance pay.Although the severance pay was a large sum of money, these nuns were usually regarded as prestigious in Qiao's residence, how could they swallow this breath.

Being expelled in public is not a shameful thing.

"Miss Nine, I'm afraid it's a little too much for you to do this." One of them said, "You must know that we watched you grow up and took care of you when we were young. It's too unfriendly for you to be like this. Besides, We have stayed in Qiao Mansion for so long, who do you think you can drive us away with just one word?"

"I'm afraid you said it wrong." Qiao Jiuxiu understands that this person is the thornhead Yingluan said in her mouth. If she wants to gain a firm foothold in Qiao's mansion, she needs to deal with them well, otherwise she will Not many people in Qiao's mansion would listen to what he said, and the big family was not easy to manage.So it wasn't that she was ruthless, and there was nothing she could do about it. Who made them hit their guns.

"First of all, I am no longer Miss Nine, but Concubine Nine. If you don't give me face, you don't give face to the prince. If you don't give face to the prince, you don't give face to the court. If you don't deal with you, it is disrespect to the court. .Besides, I am the head of the family appointed by my wife. If you don't obey my order, you are disrespecting your wife. How can people like you stay in Qiao's mansion?"

It was probably because Qiao Jiuxiu was too dignified when she said this, so those nuns froze in place, including all the servants behind.
