Counterattack of the Cannon Fodder Chambermaid

Untitled Part 30

Maintaining the smile on his face as he sent Eunuch Fu off with his eyes, An Chen finally straightened his posture.

Xiao Li ZI who had been standing to the side as though invisible approached and said: "Brother An, don't we need to report the matter with those palace maids to Grandpa Fu?"

Eunuch Fu arranging people into the hall was known by those who had served there for a long time. On the surface it seemed as if only Xiao Xia Zi and Xiao Qin Zi were willing to bother with them while everyone else remained solemn and removed. The truth was that an unknown amount of people were watching them closely, and regarding the palace maids' hidden schemes everyone was clear in their hearts.

"Those little girls fighting and scheming against each other in the dark isn't worth reporting to master. If I told him he would just say I was making a fuss over nothing." An Chen assumed the look of an instructor as he opened his mouth and preached, "Master's old self doesn't need to be bothered by small things such as this. Human nature will cause conflict to erupt wherever they are. We just need to keep a close watch."

"Right, right, right. What brother An said makes sense."

An Chen glanced sideways at Xiao Li Zi. This person was still too tender, not knowing that master is more than happy to see this situation occur. Struggles are good. Struggles meant they had ambition, and only with ambition could things come to fruition. If things could succeed that would be good. For those at the top, the results justified the means.

The Jing Prince could also see that Eunuch Fu was in a good mood, but he didn't reveal anything in his expression.

After finishing breakfast, the prince went to the martial training grounds.

In the past, the Jing Prince didn't know any martial arts. Within the palace, no one asked and no one taught. Only after coming to the Jing Province did he find himself some martial arts masters and had them instruct him in martial arts.

Martial arts was something that needed to be trained at a young age. Only then could the muscles and bones be developed properly. The Jing Prince started too late, and he had to put in several more times the effort for very little result.

Master Yan was responsible for teaching kickboxing styled kung-fu. He was a famous general in the past and afterwards was invited by the Jing Prince to be his personal kickboxing instructor. Master Yan told the Jing Prince several times that learning kickboxing at his age wasn't very useful, but the prince continued learning from him single-mindedly, and did not miss a single day.

The Jing Prince first practiced archery, and then practiced Master Yan's techniques.

After training for an hour, he was sweating all over. His expression still unchanged, he went to take a bath and changed clothes before going to the front court's Hall of Deliberation.

The Hall of Deliberation was where the Jing Prince handled official business. There he either met officials under his jurisdiction or took care of his business.

Although it was called taking care of business, there really wasn't anything important. After all, the Jing Prince Estate had an Adjutant's Office that would take care of most important matters normally and only the smaller things get passed on to the prince. Of course the office still reported regularly to the prince, especially since he took his work very seriously.

Precisely because of his work ethic, along with his habitually silent personality, those office workers he had dealings with often felt a lot of pressure.

If the boss has too much of a personality, those under him will need to adapt.

The result of adaptation was that those who were successful could continue to work while those who weren't went elsewhere. The Jing Prince relocated to the Jing Province right after his coming-of-age ceremony at twenty years old, and it's been five years since. Over the years, all those that worked under him had gone through this adaptation process.
