As soon as someone mentioned that Ye Jintang was pitiful, others immediately followed suit.

Some people even revealed the specific contents of Ye Jintang's dowry list.

Just now everyone just saw that there was a false lift, but they didn't know how false it looked like.

This would be specifically mentioned by someone, and everyone would look at the smiling Ye family members at the gate of the Marquis' Mansion and couldn't help but look down on them in their hearts.

It is really despicable that such a big marquisate bullies a little orphan.

Before Ye Jintang's bridal sedan arrived at Prince Qin's mansion, the news that she was treated harshly during her marriage had spread throughout most of the capital.

Of course, the reason why the news spread so quickly was due to Ye Jintang's involvement.

She had said long ago that she would never accept the loss of dowry.

Since the Marquis's Mansion gave her such a dowry, she should not be afraid of being found out.

She wanted to trample the reputation of the Danyang Marquisate under her feet and make them unable to hold their heads up in the capital.

The bridal sedan went around the capital for a long time before it was carried into the Prince of Qin's Palace through the main gate.

After going through such a big circle, Ye Jintang, who got up early this morning, felt a little drowsy.

Suddenly the sedan stopped, startling her.

"Please step down from the sedan chair, Princess."

Nanny Zhang stood to the side of the sedan chair and raised her voice to remind Ye Jintang.

Ye Jintang stretched out a hand, and it fell into a warm palm.

"Jintang, watch your step."

Ye Jintang, who was about to get off the sedan chair, felt that the male voice sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it for a moment.

Before the wedding, Nanny Zhang told Ye Jintang a lot about the wedding in the royal palace, which was extremely complicated.

But today the process was obviously much simpler. After paying homage to heaven and earth, Ye Jintang was sent directly to the bridal chamber.

The palace's banquet for guests in the front yard at noon was also very perfunctory, with only four tables in total.

When the Prince of Qin got married, Emperor Jing and Imperial Noble Consort Dehui were supposed to attend the ceremony, but they did not show up. They only sent the chief eunuch in the palace to deliver a gift and that was it.

Ye Jintang entered the bridal chamber and did not sit quietly on the bed, but directly lifted the veil.

The furnishings in the room were very simple. Apart from an extremely luxurious bed, all other items in the room were very ordinary, only slightly better than her room in the marquis's mansion.

If not for the bright red wedding candles in the room and the bright red quilt on the bed, she really wouldn't have been able to tell that this was the King of Qin's wedding.

There was not a single festive item on the table that should have been placed on it, nor were there any red dates or peanuts on the wedding quilt.

Ye Jintang doesn't like to suffer any loss. If someone deliberately makes things difficult for her on her wedding day, she won't tolerate it.

"Madam Zhang, go ask who is the matron in charge here and call her over."

"Today I was really enlightened. The King of Qin married a princess, but there was not even a person from the King of Qin's palace in the room."

Nanny Zhang was very familiar with the rules of the palace, and she quickly called over Nanny Zhao, the housekeeper.

"Madam Zhao, there is something I don't understand. Does the King of Qin not want to marry me?"

Nanny Zhao, who came into the room, had a wooden face. She didn't smile at all when she saw Ye Jintang, and her voice was cold when she spoke.

"Replying to Princess, the prince naturally wants to marry the princess."

"Since you want to marry me, why are you treating me so coldly?"

As he spoke, Ye Jintang patted the clean small table with his fingers.

"If I remember correctly, there should be a lot of things on the table, not as clean as it is now."

When Nanny Zhao heard Ye Jintang say this, she was obviously stunned. She didn't expect Ye Jintang to know these details.

She thought she was just an unfavored orphan in the Danyang Marquis's Mansion, so naturally she had no idea what the process was for a prince to get married in the palace.

Nanny Zhao calmed herself down and quickly bowed to Ye Jintang to apologize.

"Princess, please forgive me. It must be that the maids and servants below were lazy and forgot to place the auspicious objects. I will have someone bring them here right away."

Having said that, Nanny Zhao immediately left.

But she was gone for a quarter of an hour.

Ye Jintang, who didn't even have a sip of water to drink, was so angry that he laughed.

Today she was really enlightened. The servants in Prince Qin's mansion actually bullied her, the newly-married princess, so blatantly.

Did they think that she was an orphan and could be bullied at will because she had no one to take care of her?

"Madam Zhang, if I give you the responsibility of managing the backyard of the palace, can you manage it well? There must be many rebellious maids and old women in the backyard. It will not be easy to deal with them."

Ye Jintang looked at Nanny Zhang calmly.

"As long as the princess trusts me, I will never let those villains bully her."

"very good."

"We'll give Madam Zhao a quarter of an hour. If Madam Zhao doesn't come back, don't blame me for being cruel."

While Ye Jintang was speaking, a small green bottle appeared in his hand.

She played with the bottle in her hand, waiting silently for Aunt Zhao.

A quarter of an hour passed in the blink of an eye, and as expected, Nanny Zhao did not come back.

Ye Jintang raised the corners of his lips and sneered, "I guess Madam Zhao went out to buy things for the prince's wedding. I don't like her being so slow."

"Liuli, go with Aunt Zhang to find Aunt Zhao and ask her for things to redecorate the wedding room."

Although Ye Jintang's words were rather tactful, when Liuli took the small green bottle from her hand, she already knew what she was going to do.

Liuli and Nanny Zhang went out together, and Luzhu, who had been serving Ye Jintang, was confused.

"Miss, this Aunt Zhao really doesn't take us seriously. After such a long time, she didn't even bring a pot of tea."

"From today on, I am no longer a girl."

Ye Jintang reminded Luzhu with a smile.

"Princess, please forgive me. I am used to calling you Your Majesty, and I just can't change my way of speaking."

"It's okay, you'll get used to it slowly."

Liuli and Nanny Zhang went out together, and soon a group of maids came in carrying bright red food boxes.

"Princess, Madam Zhao suddenly fell ill just now, so I neglected you. I will have someone send Madam Zhao back to her room now."

"Oh, so that's how it is. I was wondering how an old lady like Zhao from the palace could dare to neglect me. It turns out that she is ill."

"Today is the princess's wedding day, and there are still many things to do. From today on, Aunt Zhang, you will be the chief steward of the backyard."

"Yes."

Nanny Zhang hurried forward and bowed.

There was a maid standing at the door with a frown on her face. Seeing Ye Jintang deal with Aunt Zhao so easily, she said bluntly, "Princess, Aunt Zhao is the chief steward. Her stay or departure needs the decision of the prince. Princess has no right to deal with Aunt Zhao privately."

"Oh, I don't know who you are?"

"My surname is Xu, and I am the second-class housekeeper in the backyard."

"What Madam Xu said makes sense, so go and invite the prince over now."

Ye Jintang looked at Aunt Xu with a smile.

If she dealt with Madam Zhao, she could still save her life, but it was hard to say how the King of Qin would deal with her.
