Chapter 243 No Room for You
Teng Yuru reached out weakly, trying to take down the official uniform on the hanger.
Wei Chushuang was furious and tore off his clothes and threw them out the door.
Perhaps it was still early, and it was quiet outside the door with no one coming and going.
Teng Yuru didn't care about these details. He used the quilt as clothes and wrapped himself in a hurry. At the same time, he spoke in a dull and empty tone.
"Madam, you misunderstood..."
Wei Chushuang roared angrily, his power piercing the clouds and splitting the rocks.
"Shut up!"
She pointed her hatred directly at him, and walked closer step by step, aiming at the target and splitting the wind and the flow.
"As the Minister of Yinsi, holding the power of Yinsitai, you should be the first to set an example by investigating the mistakes of the nobles and the mistakes of the officials. But you knowingly committed a crime and I caught you red-handed!"
"Lord Teng, the Minister of Yin, is familiar with the laws. If I report today's incident to the Minister of Yin, how will Lord Xie deal with you two?!"
Teng Yuru was lonely and timid, with his head lowered and his eyes submissive.
"Madam, why bother Mr. Xie when you are making something up out of nothing?"
"If it alarms others and something unexpected happens, Lord Xie will avoid suspicion according to your order, and let the court investigate. By then, even if Madam regrets it, there will be nothing she can do."
Wei Chushuang put her hands behind her back, her sleeves raised and her clothes fluttered, stirring up a gust of wind and a raging flame.
"You act recklessly, yet you want me to swallow my anger. How can this be justified?"
"I'm sorry, Master Teng. We, the descendants of the Wei clan, are the only ones who lead by example, and no one who tolerates shame!"
Teng Yuru's face was pale and he looked in great pain.
"Why is it so difficult to explain?"
"I'm not asking Madam to compromise, but what I meant is that Madam, please at least give me a chance to explain."
Wei Chushuang glanced away with disgust.
"Then tell me."
When it came to defending himself, Teng Yuru didn't know what to say.
"Uh... um..."
Wei Chushuang took the opportunity to continue the conversation.
"Look, it's not that I'm unreasonable and don't give you a chance to defend yourself; it's just that what you did is hard to describe and there's nothing much to say!"
Then she glared at Orlan fiercely.
"What about you?"
"What do you have to say?"
After getting the permission, E-lan quickly defended herself without being arrogant or boastful.
"Reporting to Madam, in the past few days, someone has been acting recklessly and teasing me. His methods are so sophisticated that he can hurt people by sneaking around and catch people off guard. This incident must have been done by that person. Madam, you can see clearly that the master and I are innocent and there is absolutely no hiding anything!"
Wei Chushuang's few cold laughs were as sharp as wind and frost.
"She has a very clever mouth. No wonder the master likes her."
O-lan persisted and continued to defend herself.
"Madam, slave..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Wei Chushuang.
She sneered twice, and as her words became more serious, she became angry.
"From the moment you entered the mansion, your heart was set on becoming the mistress of the Teng Mansion. I saw this a long time ago, so I ordered the people under me to use jealousy as a pretext to deal with you as a matter of course."
"I did all the things you called pranks, but I never instigated others to send you to the master's bed!"
Teng Yuru couldn't stand it anymore and reminded him loudly.
"Madam, be careful what you say!"
Wei Chushuang refuted bluntly.
"What right do you, a naked person, have to speak nonsense?"
Teng Yuru was speechless for a moment.
The confusion in her heart gradually turned into bitterness and disappointment. E-lan shook her head gently in disbelief.
"Were all these pranks really instigated by Madam?"
Wei Chushuang rolled her eyes in annoyance and snorted coldly.
"Why pretend to be innocent? I know the truth and I can't hide anything from you."
"I am a rough man who only knows how to fight on the battlefield, but not the struggles in the harem. You are very smart, you took advantage of my absence and came to flatter me. You also knew that you couldn't do it alone, so you ran to the princess to complain, pretending to be kind and honest, and easily took away the power of the head of the family!"
After thinking it over, E-lan put aside all her doubts and responded decisively.
"Madam is kindhearted, strict with herself and lenient with her subordinates. She is definitely not a narrow-minded person. I don't believe it."
Wei Chushuang looked at him with disdain.
"That's an interesting statement. Are you accusing me of being narrow-minded?"
O-lan lowered her head in fear.
"The slaves dare not."
Wei Chushuang raised her chin slightly, her eyes filled with disdain.
"For the sake of the master, I can let it go, but the Teng Mansion will definitely not be able to accommodate you."
E-lan responded respectfully.
"Yes."
Wei Chushuang continued to give instructions.
"I will buy you a house in the suburbs of Beijing. You can go back and pack up and move in."
Elan nodded as he said.
"Yes."
There was a hint of tentativeness in Wei Chushuang's words.
"Of course, your feet are on your own. If you go to Yuexi Mansion and spread rumors again, I can't control you."
E-lan understood what he meant and acted accordingly.
"Don't worry, Madam. I won't go."
Wei Chushuang looked stern and solemn.
"Well, you still have some conscience. It's worth my kindness to take you in."
"But the princess entrusted you with something, but you suddenly left the house. She couldn't help but ask about it..."
She paused deliberately, giving room for a reply.
Olan took the initiative to find an excuse.
"If the princess asks, I will say that the lady has given me a house, and I am overwhelmed with joy and can't wait to live there for a while and travel around the area."
Wei Chushuang managed to show a hint of satisfaction.
"As long as you are sensible."
"Go."
E-lan was reluctant to leave and burst into tears. She bowed her head and performed the ceremony solemnly.
"I bow to thank you, Master and Madam, for your generous reward and kindness!"
Teng Yuru couldn't bear it anymore.
"Lan'er..."
Wei Chushuang looked away and left, her intimidation evident in her eyes.
"Master, are you reluctant to part with it?"
"Why don't we move in together?"
Teng Yuru frowned in displeasure.
"Ma'am, please don't be sarcastic."
Wei Chushuang chuckled, but there was no trace of smile on her face.
"Is it sarcastic if I say two words?"
"If you don't want to talk to me, you can just shut up!"
After saying this, he glanced at E'lan and urged her in a stern voice.
"Aren't you leaving yet?"
"Are you waiting for us to give you a farewell party?"
E-Lan wiped her tears in grievance, then stood up and left.
"The slaves retire."
Teng Yuru got out of bed and chased after him.
"Lan'er!"
E'lan did not stop. She was wrapped in a quilt and disappeared around the corner in a hurry.
The quilt fell off his body, and Teng Yuru had no choice but to stop, bend down to pick it up and put it on again.
"Why is Madam like this?"
"The prank was clearly a despicable act by the servants. When did it become Madam's will?"
Wei Chushuang smiled gently, as usual.
"Don't worry, sir."
"I know that the master is honest and upright, and Lan'er is grateful and grateful. It is impossible for them to do anything to let me down."
Teng Yuru's anxiety disappeared and he looked confused.
"Then you..."
Wei Chushuang raised her eyebrows coquettishly and kept the secret.
"Master, do you know who has been teasing Lan'er these days?"
Speaking of this, Teng Yuru became angry.
"Aren't they just those narrow-minded servants? Seeing that we value Lan'er, they became jealous."
"At first, Lan'er was crying and didn't tell us. Then, I ran into her by chance and asked her about it. Then I found out the truth."
Wei Chushuang took over the conversation and gave a brief reminder.
"That day, when I finished my work and returned to the mansion, the master left a message for me to come forward and make the decision for Lan'er."
After she said that, Teng Yuru finally reacted.
"I remember you disciplined them. Ordinarily, they wouldn't dare to cause trouble again."
Wei Chushuang nodded and smiled, then asked again.
"Master, what you said is absolutely right. I also have my doubts in my heart, so I am keeping an eye on it secretly."
"Please guess, sir, who is that person?"
