Ji Ziqian left.

He had come brimming with confidence and grandeur, and left with an ashen complexion.

But the rage of Lady Wei had only just begun.

Seated on the raised platform, Zheng Shufeng coldly looked down on the servants. She said in an icy tone, "Talk! Who incited the young master against his own cousin?"

Though Zheng Shufeng had said in front of Wei Lanxin that she had intended to have Ji Ziqian take on some servant duties, which wasn't a lie, arranging things oneself was entirely different from having the servants arrange things.

If she had arranged things, she undoubtedly would have mediated with the Ji Clan first, and allowances and understanding could have been obtained for many things. But when the servants decided matters, that was truly just giving Ji Ziqian a hard time.

If it was given to you, you must give thanks!

If it was not given to you, you had better not complain!

Just because Zheng Shufeng isn't living a second life or isn't an Immortal doesn't mean she's stupid! Thankfully, she's willing to overlook the errors of the servants this time.
