Marrying into a rich family by mistake, it is difficult to be a mistress

The prince was furious and slammed the table angrily.

The princess moved her lips as if to say something, but she held back.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense.

Ji Chuhe remained silent.

Let’s not talk about Xiao Yan’an’s responsibility in this matter.

Was this incident with the Second Young Master a coincidence and someone else's arrangement?

She had already begun to become suspicious of Concubine Gao and her son.

"Jiang Lin, go and convey my oral order. From now on, he is not allowed to take leave at will!" The prince ordered in a deep voice.

"Wait!" The princess called Jiang Lin, "I will personally deliver the prince's oral order."

After saying that, the princess stood up with an angry look on her face.

"I will go with you." The prince also stood up.

When Concubine Gao saw that the prince was going to leave with the princess, a hint of anxiety flashed in her eyes.

"Father, could I ask you to stay and accompany me? I haven't seen you for more than two months." Another voice came from the inner room, a little anxious.

This was a son's humble request to his father, so cautious that no one would have the heart to refuse it.

Concubine Gao also looked at the prince with hope.

The princess turned around and looked at the prince, "Prince, the second young master is injured, you should stay here with him."

"Okay." The prince nodded.

"Mother, I will go with you." Ji Chuhe immediately stepped forward and held the princess' hand.

"Concubine Gao, please take good care of the second young master. If he needs anything, just send someone to talk to He'er." The princess instructed Concubine Gao.

"Thank you, Princess. I understand." Concubine Gao respectfully escorted the princess and Ji Chuhe to the door.

As soon as she left Concubine Gao's courtyard, the princess quickened her pace.

"Mother, it's dark and visibility is poor, please go slower." Ji Chuhe reminded softly.

"Why did the prince ask for leave? Doesn't he have any sense of responsibility? Doesn't he know how heavy the burden is on him now?" The princess couldn't help but start muttering.

"Is he hanging out with that Xu Yan'er again? That day when Xu Yan'er served tea, he went to the government office. I thought he had finally grown up! I really can't have any expectations of him at all."

"Look at Xiao Jincheng, he has always been well-behaved and sensible, and has never caused Concubine Gao any worries."

"Mother, please calm down. This happened to the Second Young Master by coincidence. When we go to Mo Garden and talk to the Crown Prince about this, he will immediately realize the importance of the matter."

"What if he realizes it? Whenever Xu Yan'er has a problem, he will focus on her! How can he have room for other things?"

Ji Chuhe was helpless.

This is a fact.

"Mother, since this is not the first time this has happened, and it will not be the last in the near future, our goal is to have the prince increase patrols and do his best to ensure the peace of the people. Otherwise, it will be easier for others to catch him for dereliction of duty and mistakes." Ji Chuhe reminded softly.

The princess didn't think so much.

"He'er, you think too highly of him! I just thought of asking him to take responsibility, but never thought of asking him to achieve any political achievements. Right now, he can't even meet this small requirement!" The princess shook her head helplessly.

In fact, Xiao Yanan is capable and competent.

But my mind is filled with love.

"The prince is still young, he will get better slowly." Ji Chuhe comforted him.

Really, she really wanted to say that it wasn’t so hard for her to raise her son!

Whenever she thought of her child who was killed by Xu Yan'er, her heart ached.

So, in this life, she doesn't want to have children anymore.

Although the child had Shen Chengjing's blood in his body, he was a treasure that she had almost sacrificed her life to get after carrying him for ten months. She only regarded him as her own child, her child alone.

Although the princess was still angry, she had already listened to Ji Chuhe's advice and was ready to communicate with Xiao Yan'an calmly when she arrived at Mo Garden.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered Mo Garden, I heard Xu Yan'er's laughter.

Ji Chuhe looked up and saw several fireflies flying out of the yard.

It's really difficult for Xiao Yanan to find fireflies in this season.

So, he was rushing to the outskirts of the city not for official business, but for these fireflies?

"Slow down, my wound still hurts!"

"Okay, okay, I'll go slower."

"Caught it! Got it!"

The princess walked in quickly and saw Xiao Yan'an carrying Xu Yan'er on his back and catching fireflies flying in the sky.

When they saw the princess's livid face, they both froze like stone statues.

Xiao Yan'an put Xu Yan'er down. Xu Yan'er's butt was in so much pain that she had to cling to Xiao Yan'an tightly to barely stand.

"You bastard! What are you doing?" the princess asked loudly.

"Mother, I...we..." Xiao Yan'an didn't know how to respond.

The princess pushed Xiao Yan'an away and slapped Xu Yan'er on the face.

"Ah!" Xu Yan'er fell directly to the ground, screaming in pain.

"Mother, why did you hit Yan'er?" Xiao Yan'an squatted down with a distressed look on his face and supported Xu Yan'er.

"After all, you have been raised in the palace for so many years, and now you have learned the tricks of those prostitutes, you are a seducer!" The princess pointed at Xu Yan'er and cursed.

"Princess, please calm down. It's all Yan'er's fault." Xu Yan'er immediately knelt down in pain, looking extremely humble.

"Mother, I was the one who caught the fireflies. It has nothing to do with Yan'er. I wanted to give her a surprise. She doesn't even know about this." Xiao Yan'an hurriedly explained.

Xu Yan'er looked towards the gate of the courtyard. Ji Chuhe was standing at the gate and had not come in yet.

Xiao Yan'an also looked in that direction.

Ji Chuhe immediately noticed the gazes of the two people.

They wouldn't think that she couldn't stand their love and affection so she went to complain to the princess and let the princess vent her anger, right?

Ji Chuhe immediately stepped in and said, "Prince, do you know how busy the government office has been recently? Something happened in the government office today and it was brought to the attention of father."

Xiao Yan'an immediately dismissed the thought in his mind, it turned out that Ji Chuhe came for serious business.

"Just tell me directly about the government office matters." He replied to Ji Chuhe.

He still thought that Ji Chuhe was making a fuss by inviting the princess.

And we can't let Yan'er bear all these blames.

"Don't you even ask what happened?" The princess pointed at Xiao Yan'an and asked angrily.

Only then did Xiao Yan'an realize the seriousness of the matter.

Since the matter has been brought to the attention of my father, it must be no small matter.

"What happened?" he asked Ji Chuhe hurriedly.

"There have been many evil incidents in the city recently. Does the prince know about this?" Ji Chuhe asked coldly.

"I know. You reminded me to increase patrols, and I have arrested some people." Xiao Yan'an responded immediately.

The princess looked at Xiao Yan'an with eyes that were like a cold knife. "He'er has already warned you, but you still let your guard down. This is the time to strengthen your precautions and not let your guard down, and you still dare to ask for leave!"
