"Hey, hey, hey, you can't hurt innocent people! Prince brother, help!" the man shouted in a sarcastic tone.

"Get lost!" Anyang replied without even turning his head.

"You deserve it. You knew she was angry, but you still dared to provoke her. Aren't you asking for trouble, Lao Si?"

The prince didn't dare to mess with this girl. If she didn't please him, his mansion would be overturned.

The concubine last time whose eyes looked very much like Anyang, had a very hot body and was very open in bed. She knew all kinds of tricks and was the prince's favorite.

As a result, when Anyang heard what the Crown Princess said, he ran over and dug out the man's eyes, causing the man to die from the pain.

Until now, the prince still feels very regretful.

He has never met a woman who enjoys playing so much again.

The fourth prince placed his hand on the crown prince's shoulder, "Brother Crown Prince, you can't watch your second sister harm her siblings."

Whenever the Fourth Prince clashed with Anyang, there was no peace.

Anyang doesn't like the Fourth Prince, and the Fourth Prince doesn't like Anyang.

Almost every time, the Fourth Prince would say something so insulting that Anyang would get angry, and then Anyang would chase the Fourth Prince around the mansion.

"Say it again! This princess is in a bad mood today, so you'd better not provoke me." Anyang pointed the whip in his hand at the Fourth Prince.

"Which blind person has offended our little princess?" The Fourth Prince didn't think Anyang was joking.

Anyang was feeling righteous and depressed, and seeing that there was no one around, he told her about the student from the Imperial College whom he had a crush on, but later found out that the student was already married.

"Hey, I thought it was something else. Isn't it just that he has a family? Just let him divorce. You are so much more noble than his wife. Anyone who is not stupid will know how to make a choice."

The fourth prince said indifferently after hearing this.

Previously, the prince fell in love with a woman, but found out that she was already married. So he sent a beautiful woman to the woman's husband, and the husband divorced her immediately.

The Fourth Prince had seen this kind of thing many times following the Crown Prince and was no longer surprised.

After hearing this, Anyang couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"Second sister, I think you should wait and make plans after the results of the autumn exam come out. Don't listen to your fourth brother's nonsense." The prince said.

Anyang is her own sister and the apple of the Queen's eye.

How could she be allowed to marry a poor and unknown scholar?

He won't be able to pass the test of the Queen Mother alone. Given her temper, she will make the scholar disappear from the world.

When Anyang heard what the prince said, she nodded in agreement. She also knew that Zhao Jingyan's current status would not allow him to pass the test of his mother.

However, she believed that the person she chose would definitely be able to pass the imperial examination.

She will pave the way for him until he stands on a high place.

After a few days of autumn examinations, Shen Yunchu specially called a carriage to pick up Zhao Jingyan, who had lost a lot of weight.

Zhao Jingyan fell into a coma as soon as he returned home, and remained so until early the next morning.

"Today, I'm going to the school to discuss the content of the exam with the teacher." After Zhao Jingyan was dressed neatly, he said to Shen Yunchu.

"Husband, will you come back for lunch?" Shen Yunchu was straightening Zhao Jingyan's gown.

"I won't be back today. Oh, give me some money. A few of my good classmates have agreed to go boating on the lake tonight."

Zhao Jingyan felt good about his performance in the exam. If nothing unexpected happened, there would be no problem in making the list.

Then, he needed to make some connections in the upper class, so he agreed to go boating on the lake with his classmates.

Shen Yunchu also agreed, so he took the key and prepared to open the cabinet.

As soon as she picked up the lock with her left hand, it fell off.

"Ah? Husband, come and see!" Shen Yunchu was startled.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Jingyan walked over while adjusting his clothes.

"There's a thief in our room! The lock has been pried open!" Shen Yunchu raised the padlock in his hand.

Only then did Zhao Jingyan remember the last time he broke the lock because he was short of money.

He took the lock with a guilty conscience and said, "Last time when you were not here, I wanted to get some money to buy the test papers, and in a hurry, I broke the lock."

"I only took thirty taels. I will definitely give you the money back in the future." He walked aside awkwardly.

When Shen Yunchu heard that he only took a few dozen taels, he didn't take it seriously.

She smiled and said, "Mine belongs to my husband, so what's the point of saying whether to make up for it or not?"

She opened the cabinet, took out the box, and prepared to take the banknotes out of it.

"Husband, is one hundred taels enough?" she asked as she went to get it.

The touch of her hand made her stunned for a moment, "Husband, are you sure you only took thirty taels?"

"What do you mean? Are you suspecting me of lying?" Zhao Jingyan became angry and embarrassed.

Shen Yunchu showed the box in his hand to Zhao Jingyan.

"I remember very clearly what was in this box. The shopkeeper had just handed in a thousand taels of silver notes, and my father-in-law gave me another thousand taels. I remember giving my husband two hundred taels. If my husband took thirty taels as he said, there should be one thousand seven hundred and seventy taels left. But, you see..."

Although Shen Yunchu doesn't care much about money, she doesn't allow others to cheat her.

Zhao Jingyan walked over angrily, picked up the box and looked at it.

He took it and looked at it, and was also surprised.

He remembered that the last time he took it, there was a thick stack of silver bills inside, but now there were only a few thin ones.

He picked them up and took a look. They were all small-denomination silver notes, which added up to only about one hundred taels.

He walked to the cabinet without giving up and looked inside to see if it had fallen into another part of the cabinet when he put it there.

Unfortunately, there was nothing in the cabinet except some cloth and medicinal herbs.

"Did you remember it wrongly? Didn't you spend the money later?"

Zhao Jingyan turned around and asked Shen Yunchu, because Shen Yunchu usually spent money lavishly.

Recently, Jia Mingzhu has lowered the standard of food, and Shen Yunchu often buys some snacks to eat.

"Husband, are you suspecting that I'm lying?" Shen Yunchu felt very aggrieved.

"My dowry was generous, and no one could blame me even if I spent it myself. But now that the money is gone, isn't it my duty to ask?"

"If this money was spent by my husband, it doesn't matter as long as he tells me. I've already said that what's mine is his."

"But if the money was stolen by a thief, I would report it to the police. This time they only stole the banknotes, so will my jewelry be stolen next time?"

Shen Yunchu was furious and threw one sentence after another at Zhao Jingyan.

"I've already said that I only took thirty taels and nothing else!" Zhao Jingyan was also angry.

After all, Shen Yunchu just didn't believe him.

"Then let's report to the police! Chunxiang, take the master's letter and ask the government to investigate!" Shen Yunchu was furious.

"No!" Zhao Jingyan hurriedly stopped Chunxiang.
