I was flattered after crossing

I went on to say, "Since we agreed to live a good life and face the outside world as a couple, why bother having such a stupid teammate holding you back? If the trust is gone, everything is gone." This was both an explanation to Xiao Cui and a reminder to myself.

"Have all the prisoners been escorted back to Beijing?" I asked.

Xiao Cui nodded and said, "We left yesterday."

"That's fine. We will pass by Hangzhou on our way back. Let's go and have a look! There should be a lot of good materials there." I said happily looking at Xiao Cui.

"Aren't you feeling uncomfortable, Princess?" Xiao Cui looked at me worriedly.

"(ˉ▽￣～) Tsk~~ A mere man, can he slow down the pace at which I make money?" After saying that, I hummed a little tune and thought that I would have to write a letter to tell her everything that happened in the past few days and complain to her.

Thinking of this, my mood suddenly became cheerful, as if all my worries had left me.

[A few days later, the Royal Palace of Rui Wang in the Imperial City]

"Oh, you're back so soon. Are you tired?" Lei Lei asked with concern as she picked me up outside the palace.

"It's okay, it's okay. How's it going? Did you buy the silk shop?" I asked impatiently after getting off the car.

"Don't worry, I started processing as soon as I received your letter. I have already got the title deed." Lei Lei said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, then I feel relieved. In fact, it's okay not to buy the house. I'm just afraid that he will come back and use the silk shop to control me. Wouldn't all our efforts for so long be in vain?" I said seriously.

"Where is the dowry?" Leilei asked again.

"It's okay. They can't touch the dowry. If we get a divorce, I can just take the dowry with me." I answered confidently.

"Over the past month, the performance of our silk shop and facial mask shop has been steadily increasing. If you really get divorced, supporting you will not be a problem." Leilei comforted me.

"Okay, that's great. Add my dowry and we'll have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of our lives as long as we stay away from pornography, gambling or drugs." I said confidently.

"Come on, let's go to the warehouse and check out my dowry. I haven't seen it for a long time." I happily pulled Leilei towards the warehouse.

"Sister-in-law~Sister-in-law~" A familiar voice came from behind us. Leilei and I turned around at the same time and saw Xiao Zhengchen running towards us with clothes in his hands.

He ran and shouted: "Sister-in-law, you are finally back!"

"Chen'er~slow down~don't fall!" I shouted with concern.

Xiao Zhengchen ran to my side and said breathlessly: "Sister-in-law, you are finally back~"

"Huh? What's wrong with you? Did something happen?" I asked Xiao Zhengchen in confusion.

He looked at me with a worried look on his face and said, "The case a few days ago was tried personally by my father. He knew that my brother had let my sister-in-law down, so when I heard that my sister-in-law's carriage had returned today, I hurried over to see her. How is my sister-in-law?" After Xiao Zhengchen finished speaking, he lowered his head, seeming a little embarrassed.

"I'm fine! What's the result of the interrogation? Was it planned by Zhao Wanqing?" I jumped up excitedly, unable to wait to know the result.

I remember that on the night of the incident, after Seventeen had arrested all the people involved in the incident, I ordered my men to keep a close watch on them, and then I rushed back to the imperial city without stopping, and wrote a letter to the emperor and empress. In the letter, I explained in detail the strangeness of the incident, hoping that they could handle it fairly.

"It's just as my sister-in-law expected. However, my father has issued an edict to summon my brother back. He must apologize to my sister-in-law when he comes back!" Xiao Zhengchen said seriously.

I was delighted when I heard this and asked, "Does the Queen Mother also know about this?"

"I know! I know everything. Mother is very angry! She said that my sister-in-law was wronged this time. When my brother comes back, he will be made to apologize." Xiao Zhengchen said hurriedly.

The corners of my mouth rose slightly, thinking this was a good result.

"Isn't sister-in-law sad?" Xiao Zhengchen asked.

"Ah? Oh, I'm sad! Of course I'm sad. It doesn't feel good to be betrayed!" I said while covering my face with my sleeves and pretending to cry.

"It hasn't been long since you got married, and your brother wants to take a concubine. At that time... at that time... wuwuwuwu" After saying that, I shook my sleeves and ran forward a few steps.

Xiao Zhengchen immediately caught up with him and said nervously, "Brother, you have also been deceived this time and you don't know the truth yet. When he enters the palace, father will tell you everything. Even if this didn't happen, father and mother would not let you marry this woman!"

I pretended to wipe my tears and then looked at Xiao Zhengchen and said, "Chen'er, can you do me a favor?"

Xiao Zhengchen looked at me seriously and said, "Sister-in-law, if you have anything to say, just tell me."

Xiao Zhengchen quickly nodded and agreed: "No problem! Sister-in-law, just tell me! Not to mention one, even ten Chen'er will help you complete it!" As he spoke, he patted his chest.

I nodded with satisfaction, then looked at him seriously and said slowly: "Okay, sister-in-law knows that you have a wide network of contacts, so I would like to ask Chen'er to help me spread this matter." After saying that, I stared at Xiao Zhengchen closely.

Xiao Zhengchen scratched his head, smiled embarrassedly, and said, "Oh, okay! Don't worry, sister-in-law! But..." Having said that, he suddenly stopped, scratched the back of his head with his hand, and looked at me hesitantly.

Seeing this, I couldn't help but frown and asked in confusion: "What's wrong? Is there any difficulty?"

"Several versions have been reported from the south in the past few days..." Xiao Zhengchen said with some embarrassment.

"It doesn't matter, just look at the selection and say whatever you want. What I want is the popularity of public opinion. I can rest assured to leave this matter to sister-in-law Chen'er." I patted Xiao Zhengchen's shoulder and said.

After Xiao Zhengchen left, Lei Lei asked, "Are you afraid that she will really come back with Xiao Zhengxuan?"

"Let's prepare for a rainy day. If he really gets entangled, at least the public opinion will be in my favor." I said helplessly.

"If he doesn't understand, no matter how much I help him, it will be useless. In the end, I will have to listen to others' instigation and persecution of me. After all, they are all members of the royal family and we can't fight them. This is the only way at this stage. Protect yourself first." I said.

We had already reached the warehouse. Looking at the boxes filled with gold, silver and jewelry, our eyes lit up and our faces showed joy, just like tomb robbers who had found treasure.

Lei Lei was stunned and said, "You are so rich!"

"Ah? I don't know..." I answered blankly.

Xiao Cui reminded at the right time: "Princess, this is only part of it. The other part is in the warehouse of Haitang Garden..."

"What? If I had known I was so rich, I wouldn't have struggled..."

"You're a bit anti-rich..." Leilei looked back at me while grabbing a handful of jewelry.

"No, no, no! What's mine is yours. You can pick whatever you want. You can take any one to your house." I immediately took out a bracelet and put it on her wrist.
