After being married off by my younger sister, I became the most beloved person in the palace

"But... doesn't this make you feel wronged?" said the old princess.

Gu Zhiyin smiled and shook her head: "My granddaughter-in-law doesn't feel wronged."

"Good, good, good! The Fu family made the right decision to marry you." The old princess said "good" three times in a row and winked at the maid beside her.

"Mother Qin, bring the key to the mansion. From today on, the mansion will be managed by the Princess of the County."

No wonder the Taoist priest noticed black mist in the golden light when he passed by Gu's house. This relationship really needs to be changed.

Gu Yanqing is a really kind person.

Mother Qin understood and immediately handed over a carved box.

The old princess opened the box with a smile, took Gu Zhiyin's hand and placed it in her palm.

Inside the rectangular mahogany box lay a bunch of keys.

Gu Zhiyin looked at the old princess in astonishment: "Grandma, this... granddaughter-in-law is young and may not be able to take on such a big responsibility."

She was really shocked.

In her previous life, although Gu Jinse was loved and valued by the old princess, she only assisted in managing the household.

Now that the old princess gave her all the keys to the palace, it undoubtedly allowed her to truly take control of the palace. This was a treatment that even Princess Pingyang did not have.

Gu Zhiyin subconsciously glanced at Wen Shi, and happened to see the same shock in her eyes, as well as a hint of jealousy that she couldn't hide in time.

She had been married into the palace for so many years, bearing the title of Princess Pingyang, but had never been given the power to manage the household that a mistress should have.

As soon as Gu Zhiyin entered the palace, she was given the power to manage the household affairs.

How could... she not be jealous!

The old princess said: "Jing'er is the head of the family in the future, so you are the mistress of the family, so why can't you be the mistress? But you just got married and are not familiar with the palace yet. I will ask Mother Qin to help you for a while. Anyone who dares to disrespect you will be severely punished."

Upon hearing this, Gu Zhiyin no longer hesitated and agreed generously: "My granddaughter-in-law must study hard and never let down my grandmother's trust."

He knew when to advance and when to retreat, and had a calm temperament. The old princess nodded repeatedly in satisfaction.

Previously, he just wanted to find a wife for his grandson so that he could live in peace and security, but now he has some expectations for Gu Zhiyin.

As he was speaking, he heard someone reporting outside.

"Old Princess, the Prince is here."

The old princess's face suddenly darkened: "Tell him to get in."

The originally relaxed and joyful atmosphere in the room suddenly stagnated, and the next moment Fu Yunjing walked in.

Today he was wearing a dark blue Shu brocade robe, with an upright posture, an imposing manner, a face that could captivate everyone, and a hint of arrogance between his brows, saying he was the greatest boss in the world.

Even though Gu Zhiyin had seen Fu Yunjing many times, she was still stunned by his enchanting appearance.

Although Prince Ming is a playboy, his appearance is recognized as good.

However, noble families value character the most, so even though this guy is a prince of a royal palace and his handsome appearance has won countless hearts, he is still not the best candidate for husband among the nobles.

"Meet grandma, father..."

Fu Yunjing's words were still stuck in his throat when a teacup hit him on the head. He was so scared that he quickly jumped to the side and looked at Fu Zheng in shock.

"Dad, what are you doing?"

"Rebellious son, you still dare to come back?"

"Didn't you ask someone to find me back? Otherwise, I'll leave?" Fu Yunjing looked reckless, making Fu Zheng so angry that he gritted his teeth.

Wen Shi hurriedly advised: "Your Highness, calm down and talk nicely."

Fu Zheng calmed down after being comforted by Wen, and glared at Fu Yunjing and said, "Asshole, you dared to abandon your wife on your wedding night, is this your upbringing? You have brought shame to our Fu family, go to the ancestral hall and kneel down."

"Father, please calm down. It's good that the prince is back. There is really no need to kneel in the ancestral hall for such a trivial matter." Gu Zhiyin said softly.

The old princess glared at Fu Yunzheng in dismay and said, "Since Yin'er spoke up for you, I'll let you go today. You must accompany her back home the day after tomorrow. If you dare to act like this again, I'll ask your father to break your legs."

Fu Yunjing looked at Gu Zhiyin coldly and sneered.

Fu Zheng felt the anger that was suppressed in his chest rising up: "What are you laughing at?"

"I laugh at the hypocrisy of some people."

Even the old princess couldn't stand the obvious allusion. She threw the Buddhist beads in her hand over and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

The old princess lectured him, and Fu Yunzheng did not dare to hide. Moreover, he did not dare to let the precious red sandalwood Buddhist beads fall to the ground. He reached out to catch it, humming, "Isn't it? I pretend to be obedient and submissive in front of you, but in fact I am complaining and making trouble for you, isn't it true?"

"Yin'er is respectful and polite, how can that be fake? Oh, is it just like your actor talking nonsense and being unrestrained that is her true nature?" The old princess rolled her eyes in anger.

"Yue'er is generous, honest and straightforward, but you, grandma, are clearly prejudiced."

After meeting a woman as bold and forthright as Lin Jianyue, Fu Yunzheng felt repulsed from the look of Gu Zhiyin, a lady from a noble family. Even though Gu Zhiyin was not wrong, as long as she could not win Fu Yunjing's favor, all that was left was prejudice.

Fortunately, Gu Zhiyin doesn’t care!

"Who is prejudiced? You abandoned your wife on your wedding night. No one would let you go if you were humiliated like this. But Yin'er didn't argue with you. She came early to show her respect and spoke for you. Not only did you not show gratitude, but every word you said was directed at her. Tell me yourself, do you have prejudice against her?"

Hearing this, Fu Yunjing looked at Gu Zhiyin in astonishment.

She didn't complain?

Gu Zhiyin felt Fu Yunjing's gaze on her, raised her eyes and smiled faintly. She was wearing a water red brocade top with a butterfly collar and a long skirt of the same color embroidered with daffodils in gold thread. As she moved, the white jade tassel butterfly pendant on her collar swayed slightly. She looked extraordinarily luxurious, yet extremely obedient, just like she had been in front of him last night, quietly listening to everything he said without a single word of objection.

Fu Yunjing subconsciously shifted his gaze elsewhere.

Gu Zhiyin's move left him speechless.

"I understand." Fu Yunjing said sullenly, and said no more.

Huh? So good?

The old princess' eyes lit up, she felt happy and liked Gu Zhiyin more and more.

This granddaughter-in-law brings prosperity to the family.

Not long after Gu Zhiyin left, a maid entered the house and reported to the old princess what Gu Zhiyin had said in the morning in Qionghua Courtyard, scolding the old woman.

"Did she really say that?" asked the old princess.

The maid nodded.

The old princess's dull eyes suddenly became much clearer, full of approval.

Mother Qin even spoke well of Gu Zhiyin: "I thought the Gu family was a small family, but I never thought that the daughter they raised would be so sensible. With her always by the Prince's side, maybe she can help the Prince return to the right path."

"You're right." The old princess said happily, thinking of how her grandson had just obediently agreed to accompany Gu Zhiyin back home. It had been a long time since this brat had been so obedient since he fell in love with the actor Lin Jianyue.

"Mother Qin, go and give the red jadeite pearl five-phoenix headpiece to the princess."
