Luo Qin originally thought that after marrying Xie Yun, they would get up together every day, practice swordplay in the courtyard together in the morning, have breakfast, and then go to the study to handle family affairs, etc.

It turned out not to be.

After only a few days, Xie Jun began to prepare for his official career and had little time to spend with Luo Qin.

Luo Qin was also busy. He began to expand his business, adding many ready-made clothing stores, enclosing land to raise livestock and poultry, and opening up flower fields to grow roses and peonies.

It was unknown how long it had been before someone in Jiankang started spreading rumors that Cui Xianxian had been seen on the Xianbei side.

When Cui got wind of the news, he immediately sent people to infiltrate the Xianbei to investigate the truth.

When Yang Yiyi heard that Cui Xianxian was in Xianbei, she was delighted and immediately went to the palace to inform her cousin of the news. However, when she walked into the palace, she saw a strange woman in white kneeling beside Jin Zhao.

Yang Yiyi's mind instantly sounded the alarm!

He immediately realized that this woman might pose a threat to him.

So she walked over angrily, grabbed the woman who was kneeling next to Jin Zhao, and slapped her in the face!

"Snapped!"

A crisp sound echoed in the air, and the slap hit Ruoer's face hard!

"Yiyi!" Jin Zhao was shocked and angry. He stood up suddenly and shouted, "What are you doing?"

Yang Yiyi suddenly pushed Ruo'er away. Ruo'er was hit so hard that she felt dizzy and fell backwards involuntarily.

Fortunately, she did not fall to the ground, but was supported by Guyu who was standing beside her.

"Madam, are you okay?" Guyu asked with concern.

Ruo'er didn't say anything, but just covered her face and looked at Yang Yiyi. Anger and grievance flashed in her eyes, but she quickly suppressed all her resentment and anger, becoming pure and harmless, sobbing softly with grievance.

Yang Yiyi got even angrier when she saw her like this, and she went up to her and wanted to use the same trick again.

When she raised her hand, Jin Zhao stopped her and said angrily: "Yiyi, have you had enough of this?!"

Yang Yiyi's anger was rising, and she said with red eyes: "Cousin, you are mean to me because of her?! I am your cousin!"

When Jin Zhao saw Yang Yiyi's jealous and crazy look, he felt a headache.

Ever since Yi Yi started to have feelings for him, all the palace maids around him who were interested in him were dealt with by Yi Yi. He knew it before, but didn't care.

But Ruo'er is different. She is so similar to Qin'er...

Jin Zhao said tiredly: "Why do you have to make such a fuss over a maid? Where is your dignity as a noble lady?"

"I don't want to. It's already unfair enough that I can't be my cousin's legal wife. Cousin, you have so many other girls. I absolutely can't do that!"

Jin Zhao's wife was of noble birth, and if she couldn't solve the problem, could she not solve the problem of these maids and concubines of humble birth?

Yang Yiyi looked at Ruo'er fiercely, her heart full of anger. However, when she looked at it carefully, she couldn't help but be shocked.

This slut actually looks so similar to that bitch Luo Qin!

"Who are you?" Yang Yiyi widened her eyes, with a hint of surprise and anger in her voice.

Ruoer knelt down softly, staring at her swollen cheek, and said softly: "I am Ruoer, the servant, and I pay my respects to Miss Yang."

At this moment, Yang Yiyi finally understood.

It turned out that the cousin couldn't get Luo Qin, so he found a substitute to comfort himself.

Thinking of this, the hatred in her heart grew stronger, and hundreds of ways for Ruo'er to die tragically emerged in her mind.

Ruo'er, who was kneeling, was keenly aware of the terrifying gaze coming from above her head. It was a look full of murderous intent. Yang Yiyi wanted to kill her.

Jin Zhao naturally sensed Yang Yiyi's hostility. He immediately frowned and warned her seriously, "Yiyi, she can't move."

Yang Yiyi glared at Jin Zhao with red eyes, but unexpectedly met a pair of cold and icy eyes. In just a moment, Yang Yiyi's body suddenly trembled!

She realized that her cousin was really angry this time!

Is he so protective of this slave girl just because she looks like that man?

Yang Yiyi's heart ached.

She didn't understand why her cousin was so obsessed with Luo Qin?

After a few breaths, Yang Yiyi suppressed all her anger and turned back into a normal sister-in-law. She looked at Jin Zhao with tears in her eyes. She choked and said, "Cousin, you are too much. How could you do this to me? As soon as I got the news about Cui Qianqian, I came to find you, but where are you? How could you remember me when you had a beautiful woman in your arms!"

Facing Yang Yiyi's tearful accusation, Jin Zhao grasped the key information and immediately asked: "What's the news about Cui Xianxian? Where is she?"

Yang Yiyi didn't say anything, she just kept crying. Jin Zhao had no choice but to step forward, take a handkerchief and wipe her tears, and soften his voice, "Okay, okay, don't cry, your cousin shouldn't be so mean to you."

Yang Yiyi looked at Jin Zhao with resentment, looking at the man so close to her, and pouted, "Cousin, do you have someone else in your heart..."

It was either Cui Xianxian or Luo Qin. Cui Xianxian was missing, and before she had time to be happy, her cousin arranged a new marriage for her. Luo Qin married Xie Boan. When she was feeling happy, she discovered that her cousin had found a replacement.

What does she mean to her cousin?

It seemed like no matter what she did, her cousin couldn't see her.

Seeing the two of them like this, Guyu immediately and quietly pulled Ruo'er off the ground and retreated.

"Ah..." Jin Zhao sighed, put away the handkerchief, and hugged her in his arms, "Why don't I have you in my heart? You are my cousin who grew up in front of me."

Yang Yiyi sniffed, and heard her cousin's gentle words in her ears. She was immediately coaxed and threw herself into the man's arms, seeking comfort.

Jin Zhao patted her back patiently and soothed her in a gentle voice.

After a while, Yang Yiyi was completely coaxed, and Jin Zhao asked again: "You said you knew about Wan Wan's news, where is Wan Wan now?"

"She is in Xianbei."

"Xianbei? How come?"

so far?

Who took her away?

Yang Yiyi: "I also heard from a caravan that went to Jiankang. Cui has already sent people to look for it."

After hearing this, Jin Zhao fell into deep thought.

He couldn't understand why the Xianbei people would capture Cui Xianxian and destroy his marriage with the Cui family...

Wait, could it be the prince?

The biggest beneficiary of destroying his alliance with Cui would be the crown prince.

What a sinister villain! In order to stop him, he even colluded with the Xianbei people!

Thinking of this, Jin Zhao's eyes lit up again.

The prince colluded with foreign races. How serious a crime is that?

No matter whether it is true or not, even if it is false, he has a way to make it come true!

Jin Zhao became happier and happier as if the crown prince's fall would happen tomorrow. He laughed and pressed Yang Yiyi's shoulders, asking, "Yiyi, is your information reliable?"

"Eighty percent of it is true."

"Good, good, good! Hahaha..."

Jin Zhao laughed loudly, left Yang Yiyi behind, and walked straight out of the hall.

"Hey, cousin?" Yi Yi called behind him.

Jin Zhao waved his hand, "Yiyi, my cousin is busy with something important, please do as you please."

After saying this, he quickly left Yongshou Palace.
