My husband married a concubine? I turned around and married the cold prince.
Chapter 49 Deliberate Acting
"Were you two the ones who broke down the door just now?" An Qingqian looked at the two men holding hammers at the door.
The two looked at each other, and relying on Zhang's support, they nodded in agreement without any fear or hesitation.
"We did it."
"Very good." An Qingqian admired the courage of these two people.
"Clear the clouds, deal with it according to the rules."
As soon as An Qingqian finished speaking, Bo Yun came forward with a cold face.
The two men knew that An Qingqian's maid knew martial arts, and had already prepared for defense.
However, in Bo Yun's eyes, they looked like two mice raising their paws, trying to scare away humans, which was extremely ridiculous.
Bo Yun didn't even have to use one move before the two men fell to the ground, groaning in pain.
Bo Yun walked up to the two men and, in front of their terrified eyes, removed all four hands of the two men.
The sound of bones breaking was extremely clear in the silent environment. This piercing sound seemed to penetrate into everyone's heart.
As heart-wrenching wails echoed throughout the yard, Zhang and the people she brought with her were all severely frightened by the ferocious Bo Yun.
"An, you are so outrageous that you even allow the maid to beat up the guards in the mansion!" Zhang glared and pointed at An Qingqian and cursed.
"Outrageous? So what? Do you want someone to kill me?" An Qingqian stared at Zhang with contempt.
"Zhang, you have never treated me well since I came in. You said nicely that I would be the head of the mansion, but secretly asked Nanny Chen to tell the store managers under the name of the Marquis's mansion not to hand over the money to me.
He wanted to force me to use my dowry to maintain the operation of the entire mansion. It was ridiculous that I was so stupid at the time that I actually thought the mansion was going to fail.
But, in the past three years, I have almost spent most of my dowry and worked hard to manage everything for the entire mansion, and what have you done?
You said that I was harsh on my mother-in-law. Old lady, when you said this to slander me, why didn't you lower your head and look at your body? If I really treated you harshly, could you still have such a strong body?
Not to mention you, even Nanny Chen beside you has such a good figure. Does she look like she has been treated harshly?
And the jadeite and gold hairpin on your head was a gift from the Queen Mother to my mother.
My mother loved it very much, so when I got married, she specially let me bring it into the house as the most valuable dowry.
At the beginning, I respected you as the mother of the Marquis. You said you liked it, so I reluctantly gave it up and gave it to you. You still say that I treated you harshly?
In the current situation, who is mistreating whom?"
An Qingqian's tone was filled with reluctance. She laughed sadly twice. Everyone who listened felt a chill in their hearts.
"Now I have returned the power of the family to you. What do you want me to do?"
"Humph, as long as you hand over the silver, I won't ask anyone to embarrass you anymore. Otherwise, Xiheyuan won't be able to live in peace!"
Seeing that she hit upon her previous secret thoughts, Zhang did not show any annoyance on her face, but was rather proud.
"That's because you're stupid, you can't blame me."
Hearing the blatant insult, An Qingqian laughed instead of getting angry.
"You want silver? That's impossible. That silver doesn't even cover the dowry I spent over the past three years. I won't give out even a single cent."
"Hmph, okay, if you don't take it out, then you just wait." Zhang smiled coldly.
"Everyone of you rush in. Whoever finds the silver will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver!" Zhang knew that An Qingqian would not hand over the silver easily.
So he specially called some guards and prepared to rush directly into Xihe Courtyard. As long as he found the silver, everything would be easy to deal with.
Everyone is afraid of Po Yun, and they have just witnessed with their own eyes how powerful she is.
However, there will always be brave men when there is a big reward. Some people have never seen so much silver in their lives, so how could they not be tempted?
"Let's see who dares?" An Qingqian glanced around majestically and successfully made everyone stop.
Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, the servant at the gate came over with a group of people.
The person behind the servant was the eunuch in the palace.
The leader was called Xiao Fuzi, who was Eunuch Sheng’s apprentice and also his godson.
They came with the emperor's commendation for An Qingqian, but they didn't expect to see such a big show before they even reached the gate of Xiheyuan.
The servant who led the way was originally planning to come over earlier, but was stopped by Xiao Fuzi, who said that he wanted to come over to give An Qingqian a surprise.
The servant was so frightened when he saw that Zhang dared to bring people to smash the door of Xihe Courtyard, but he did not dare to remind her because of the looks from the people around him.
It was not until they were in a stalemate that, at Xiao Fuzi's signal, he stepped forward tremblingly and spoke to remind them.
"Old madam, someone is coming from the palace."
Upon hearing this, Zhang frowned and turned around to look. Sure enough, she saw several eunuchs standing there carrying something.
Zhang's face changed, and she quickly let the sedan chair fall to the ground and got off it herself.
With a respectful and attentive look, he said, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."
Xiao Fuzi smiled at Zhang and bowed casually, "Your servant greets the old lady."
"Thank you, sir. I wonder what you are doing?" Zhang looked behind Xiao Fuzi curiously.
Behind him there were four eunuchs carrying two large boxes, but no one knew what was inside them.
"Madam, I am delivering things to Madam An on the orders of the Emperor and the Empress. These are rewards from the Emperor." Xiao Fuzi replied to Zhang with a smile.
Zhang's smile disappeared when she heard this, and she stammered, "Yes, is that so?"
An Qingqian also heard the noise outside and walked out of the yard with his men.
When he saw Xiao Fuzi, there was no trace of surprise in his eyes.
Long before Zhang came here, she had already brought someone back from the palace, so what she just said to Zhang was actually said to Xiao Fuzi.
Because she knew that Xiao Fuzi would tell the emperor everything that happened in the mansion.
"Hello, eunuch." An Qingqian pretended to be surprised and walked up to Xiao Fuzi in surprise.
"I didn't know you were coming, sir. I'm sorry for not welcoming you. Please forgive me."
An Qingqian had a forced smile on her face, but she was very polite.
"Madam, you are too polite. I pay my respects to you." Xiao Fuzi dodged An Qingqian's salute and felt even more fond of and sympathetic towards her.
"Excuse me, sir. Please come in."
Xiao Fuzi followed An Qingqian into Xihe Courtyard.
When he passed by and saw the smashed door, contempt flashed in his eyes, but quickly disappeared.
"Madam, I am here on the orders of the Emperor and the Empress to deliver something to you."
Xiao Fuzi waved forward, and the people behind him put two large boxes on the ground and opened them in front of everyone.
