Quick Wear: The Enchanting Concubine, Rules of Survival and Plunder

"Go and fetch a doctor right away." Li Renhuai also had a look of horror on his face.

“No need,” Xue Xuerou quickly stopped him, “Cousin, it’s no use. My body is already too weak to bear the strain. What good would it do to call a doctor?”

“Your Highness,” Xue Xuerou’s maid knelt down, tears streaming down her face, “Your Highness’s wife has always been frail, as you know. But in recent times, the Madam’s increasingly cruel treatment of her has made her already weak health even more riddled with problems.”

"This servant begs Your Highness to save the Princess Consort!" The maid kowtowed to Li Renhuai. "We cannot let Madam continue to torment the Princess Consort, otherwise she may be separated from you by death. Your Highness loves the Princess Consort so much, are you going to watch yourself lose your beloved?"

"Alright, stop talking," Xue Xuerou interrupted the maid's voice. "The Consort Shu in the palace just wants to see me suffer. What can my cousin do about it?"

Then, Xue Xuerou looked at Li Renhuai with teary eyes: "Cousin, I'm afraid I can't grow old with you. My frail body really can't hold on any longer. I guess it won't be long before..."

"Xue Rou, stop talking," Li Renhuai hugged Xue Xue Rou tightly. "I'll go and beg Mother right now. Anyway, that bitch Jiang Chunxi didn't bribe any spies in the Ningxin Marquis's mansion, so there's a lot of room for maneuver regarding her wanting to see you suffer."

Immediately, Li Renhuai released Xue Xuerou and hurriedly walked out.

"Princess Consort, do you think the Prince can persuade Madam?" the maid asked worriedly. "What if the Prince can't persuade Madam?"

Yes, Xue Xuerou's coughing up blood was just an act, and the purpose of doing so was naturally to escape the torment of her mother, Li. After all, if she continued to be tormented like this, she might really die.

"I just hope Li Renhuai won't disappoint me!" Xue Xuerou had no confidence at all. "I really regret it! If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have dreamed of becoming my cousin's wife. If I had just been a good concubine for him, everything in the Ningxin Marquis's mansion would still be mine in the future."

If she were to marry her cousin as a concubine, given his complete obedience to her, wouldn't everything in the Ningxin Earl's mansion fall into the hands of her child? That bitch Jiang Chunxi shouldn't even dream of having a child.

But it's too late to regret it now; after all, there's no going back.

When Li Renhuai went to see his mother, she naturally gave him a severe scolding: "How could you not know that Jiang Chunxi didn't hire any spies in our household? Even if Jiang Chunxi didn't hire any spies in our household, the Jiang family would still send people to keep an eye on the situation in our household."

"If we outwardly comply but inwardly disagree, saying one thing to her face and another behind her back, and don't let Xue Xuerou suffer as Jiang Chunxi wishes, wouldn't that just add fuel to the fire of Jiang Chunxi's anger?"

"Renhuai! Can't you wake up for once? What time is it? You're still only thinking about protecting Xue Xuerou. What, do you wish our whole family would die? Are you only happy if you're a muddle-headed idiot?"

“Mother,” Li Renhuai said with a frown, “but Xue Rou’s body is indeed already beyond its limits. The torment you have inflicted on her these past few days has even caused her to cough up blood. Are you just going to watch Xue Rou be tormented to death?”

“Mother, you have always treated Xue Rou like your own daughter since she was a child. I don’t believe you would have the heart to watch Xue Rou die.”
