Steward Hao told Wang Dingshun that what they valued was Wang Dingshun’s obedience, saying that a long illness bed does not give birth to filial children. However, Wang Dingshun had always cared for his elderly and paralyzed grandfather without complaint, patiently and meticulously. Despite having given up the imperial examinations to serve his grandfather, after his grandfather passed away, he wished to study diligently, proving his filial piety. They said having such a person taking care of Madam Wang made the Bai family’s Fourth Madam feel assured.
A great blessing fell upon Wang Dingshun’s head, and he found it hard to believe. It was only later when the clan elders and the clan leader discussed the matter with him that Wang Dingshun believed it to be true.
Subsequently, Wang Dingshun was groomed by the clan leader and clan elders and met with Madam Wang and the Bai family’s Fourth Madam, Mrs. Wang. Both were very satisfied, and they set the matter with Wang Dingkun.
The Fourth Madam, Mrs. Wang, was extremely grateful to Bai Qingyan for this matter. Others in the Wang family didn’t know how else to help Bai Qingyan, so they could only pray for her before Buddha daily. Every time Nanny Guan came to the front hall and spoke with Nanny Tong about the Wang family’s affairs, she said Madam Wang now had a son without any accolades by her side, invigorating her to teach her son with all her effort.
Wang Dingkun’s literary learning could be taught by renowned tutors and quickly remedied. However, the etiquette of an aristocratic family, which he lacked from an early age, had to be corrected bit by bit from subtle aspects, requiring some effort. Apart from the regular etiquette teacher for Wang Dingshun, Madam Wang also pointed out and advised Wang Dingshun.
This Wang Dingshun had a very good temperament, never showing any impatience, and was greatly grateful to Madam Wang, knowing all he gained today was thanks to her blessing.
"Nanny Guan said Madam Wang plans to arrange a marriage for the brother of the Fourth Madam after some time, once the etiquette is well taught." Nanny Tong said with a smile as she kneaded Bai Qingyan’s shoulders.
"Madam Wang is in good spirits, and my fourth aunt doesn’t have to worry much." Bai Qingyan said with a smile to Nanny Tong, "Enough, Nanny, you’ve been massaging for long enough and must be tired. I have to read the memorials now."
"Your Majesty..." Wei Zhong stepped in slowly, holding back laughter as he spoke to Bai Qingyan, "Your Majesty, Honglu Temple sent news that Minister Fan Yugan has fought with the Minister of Revenue of Yan Kingdom."
Bai Qingyan was not surprised at Fan Yugan getting into a fight but couldn’t help but worry about Commandant Lu and her uncle. She frowned: "What about Commandant Lu and Minister Dong? Were they hurt?"
"No, they were unharmed. They got into a fight after leaving Honglu Temple. I heard Minister Fan Yugan was carried back to his residence, groaning all the way, claiming he was hit by the Minister of Revenue of Yan Kingdom and wants to enter the palace to have Your Majesty make the decision. He kept shouting it was unbearable bullying, even parading back to his residence." Wei Zhong lowered his head, restraining himself from bursting into laughter, "It’s said half of Dadu City knows about Minister Fan being hit, and those emotionally agitated want to block the staging post gate to demand justice from Yan Kingdom." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
Wei Zhong also heard that Fan Yugan almost instructed his own servant to bang gongs and shout throughout the streets, even purposely passing by the posthouse.
Just imagining it, Bai Qingyan could picture Fan Yugan acting like a rogue.
Wang Hanbing, always silent among the envoys, made Bai Qingyan fear he was observing the Zhou Dynasty’s envoys, hiding some secret move. Therefore, she asked Fan Yugan to devise a way to prevent the Minister of Revenue of Yan Kingdom from participating in negotiations. Fan Yugan did well!
As long as the Minister of Revenue of Yan Kingdom cannot participate in the talks, Fan Yugan would then entangle with Wang Hanbing.
Let Fan Yugan test Wang Hanbing’s depth, and if ultimately it doesn’t work, let Liu Rushi personally deal with this Top Scholar... Wang Hanbing.
She pressed her lips, smiled, and said, "Go invite the Ninth Prince of Yan Kingdom into the palace and say... Yan Kingdom first tried to assassinate our Zhou Dynasty court officials, and then assaulted our Zhou Dynasty officials. Are they planning to explain? Or do they intend to start a war? Also... send people to grandly reward Fan Yugan, saying... he suffered for the Zhou Dynasty, and I remember."
