A whole box of jewelry and a whole box of exquisite and precious fabrics.

The items in the box were neatly arranged. Just by looking at them, you could tell that these things were of great value and precious, not to mention that they were gifts from the emperor and the empress.

"Madam, the Emperor and the Empress said that they have wronged you over the years. It just so happens that the various states and counties have some good things as tribute, so they ordered me to deliver them to you."

"I would like to thank the Emperor and the Empress for their kindness and rewards." An Qingqian was shocked. She knelt down in the direction of the palace and kowtowed three times.

Such an action made Xiao Fuzi extremely appreciative.

"Yingyi, hurry down and prepare tea for Eunuch Fu and the other eunuchs." An Qingqian turned her head and gave Yingyi a look, and Yingyi immediately turned around and left.

"Madam, you are too polite. No need to bother. We still have to go back and report." Xiao Fuzi waved her hand.

"Father-in-law, don't be so anxious. Please sit down first. If you don't even have a sip of tea, wouldn't it be my fault?" An Qing smiled faintly.

"Then thank you for your help, Madam." Seeing this, Xiao Fuzi sat down.

Yingyi came back soon, bringing not only tea but also reward money.

Four maids held tea trays and served tea to each eunuch, along with golden melon seeds.

Xiao Fuzi is the leader, so naturally he has the most.

He also didn't expect that An Qingqian would directly prepare golden melon seeds, and he felt a little more happy in his heart.

He took two sips of tea and stood up to say goodbye.

Zhang stood aside, looking at those golden things with heartache and great reluctance in her eyes, and secretly cursed An Qingqian for being such a spendthrift.

They were just a few eunuchs delivering gifts, and it would have been enough to reward them with some silver. However, she actually wasted these things.

Xiao Fuzi stood up, glanced at Zhang, then looked towards the door outside, then spoke with a smile.

"Madam, old lady, I'm leaving now."

"Yingyi, Piaoyun, send Eunuch Fu off for me."

"Madam, that's not necessary. It's enough to have the servant lead the way. Miss Yingyi and Miss Boyun should stay and protect you. From what I see, your situation doesn't seem to be very good."

Xiao Fuzi said something meaningful, then turned around and left with his men.

However, before he walked out of the yard, he heard Zhang's voice giving orders from inside the room.

"Move these two boxes to Changshou Hall for me."

She did not hide it at all, and seemed unafraid of anyone knowing about it.

Xiao Fuzi paused and smiled with pity. She didn't know what bad luck An Qingqian had to marry into such a family.

Seeing Xiao Fuzi leaving Xiheyuan, the gentle smile on An Qingqian's face immediately disappeared.

She knew that Zhang would be anxious and thinking about these things.

However, she never expected that Zhang would dare to order these things to be taken away before the people in the palace had left.

She rarely sees someone so stupid and willing to die.

The more stupid Zhang was, the more she felt that she must have been even more stupid in her previous life to have ended up like that.

Be stupid, it’s better to be a little stupid, being a little stupid will be more beneficial to yourself.

"Boyun, order people to carry these things down, register them, and put them in my warehouse."

"An Qingqian, didn't you hear? These things are all mine. Carry them into Changshou Hall for me." Seeing the people in the palace leave, Zhang became even more unscrupulous.

Bo Yun ignored what Zhang said and called a few strong maids to carry all the things downstairs.

Seeing this, Zhang stood up and blocked the door. "Who dares? If you dare to carry it away, you have to step over me."

Zhang's behavior was shameless, but also very effective, after all, she was the master of the mansion.

The four maids stopped, and even Bo Yun had to look to An Qingqian for help.

"Go forward and step over. If anything happens to Zhang, I will be responsible." An Qingqian didn't even look at Zhang and went straight back to his seat and sat down.

He picked up the tea that Yingyi had just poured and took two sips.

The maids in Xiheyuan naturally obeyed An Qingqian's orders.

Hearing her say this, several people did not hesitate and were actually prepared to step over Zhang's body to walk over.

Seeing that they were serious, Zhang became scared and dodged at the last second before they stepped on her.

Nanny Chen, who was standing nearby, almost rushed over, but when she saw Zhang voluntarily move aside, she felt relieved.

Over the past year, An Qingqian has been like a madman, and they really don't dare to gamble.

He beat Zhang in front of her, and later ordered his maids to injure the Marquis's personal guards. Today, he even ordered his maids to beat the two people who were knocking on the door and seriously injured them.

Neither she nor Zhang was sure whether An Qingqian's maid would really step over Zhang if Zhang did not move aside.

An Qingqian caught a glimpse of Zhang avoiding unwillingly, and a look of understanding flashed in her eyes.

Zhang values ​​her life the most, so it was inevitable for her to avoid it.

"Ms. Zhang, should I ask someone to carry you back, or do you want to walk back by yourself?" An Qingqian put down the teacup, stood up and slowly walked to Ms. Zhang.

Although An Qingqian had no expression on her face, Zhang could sense a terrifying aura from her. She couldn't help but take two steps back and stammered, "What do you want to do?"

An Qingqian didn't say anything, but reached out and took the hairpin off Zhang's head.

"You don't deserve such good things."

"You, give it back to me!" Zhang didn't expect that An Qingqian's target was this hairpin. She reached out to grab it, but An Qingqian grabbed her arm.

"Zhang, are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid? Do you think those eunuchs today really came just to give me these things?" An Qingqian smiled indifferently and spoke softly.

However, these words fell into Zhang's ears, like the voice of a demon from hell, and her body trembled, "What do you mean?"

Aren’t they just here to give An Qingqian something? What else could that mean?

"I think you already know almost everything that happened in the palace yesterday. The emperor now knows that I was wronged here in the Lin'an Marquis' Mansion for more than three years.

They came here today, ostensibly to give me something, but actually they just wanted to know if anyone in your mansion had bullied me.

What a coincidence, when they came, you had ordered someone to break down my door, so that they could see with their own eyes how you bullied me.

Tell me, if the emperor knows about this, will he blame you or your son?

Of course, he might also vent his anger on the entire Marquisate."

As An Qingqian spoke, she actually laughed out loud. She stretched out a hand and placed it on Zhang's shoulder. Her whole body exuded a bone-chilling chill, which frightened Zhang so much that she shivered continuously.

After An Qingqian's reminder, Zhang suddenly understood.
