"If there really were consequences, would our mansion be able to escape unscathed?" Pei Jin sneered and pressed on, "Mother, don't forget that His Royal Highness and the Princess are here today. If something happens in front of them, what will they think!"

"Then what do you say we should do?" Mrs. Wang put down the red coral beads in her hand and asked anxiously and angrily.

"Give them both thirty strokes of the cane each, don't allow them to eat, and make them kneel in the ancestral hall for three days and three nights to teach them a lesson." Pei Jin said in a deep voice.

"Well, they are both weak and fragile, I'm afraid of them..." Mrs. Wang said in a hoarse voice. By saying this, her son meant to kill those two girls!

"Mother, don't you know that the reason they were able to steal this medicine is because of my uncle and his people... Alas, the top beam is not straight and the bottom beam is crooked." Pei Jin snorted coldly with contempt.

"Shenzhi, you must have found out everything. Could it be that someone else framed them?" Mrs. Wang asked with a worried look on her face.

"Mother, the evidence is conclusive, what else is there to say? There is still powder of the drug in Wang Ziyan's purse. There is also powder in Wang Zixuan's fingernails." Pei Jin said in a low voice.

"But..." Mrs. Wang was in a dilemma.

"If you don't want to suffer physical pain, then lock them both up in the family temple. I'll find someone to watch over them. Don't allow them to wear gold and silver anymore. Let them live a simple life with simple food and simple lamps." Pei Jin said coldly, "With the two of them around, the family will definitely be in turmoil. Mother, you'd better break away from the Wang family as soon as possible to raise these two people, otherwise they will hurt yourself!"

Pei Jin did not tell his mother about the entanglement between the two of them and Chan Yi. He did not want to involve Chan Yi.

"This..." Mrs. Wang couldn't bring herself to do it. After all, they were her own niece, the one she had watched grow up. Although she knew that the two of them had always been spoiled, she didn't expect them to be so bold.

"After all, they are your uncle's legitimate daughters, and mother is afraid that your uncle and aunt will not agree." Mrs. Wang said in a deep voice.

"That's easy. I'll throw them both out of the mansion right now and let others see how they reaped what they sowed!" Pei Jin laughed angrily, "Mother, you didn't see the ugly sight of them hugging each other!"

"Big sister, big sister..."

"Here I am, mother. You must not be soft-hearted this time, otherwise you will do what you say for the sake of the son of the Marquis's Mansion." Pei Jin raised his head, pressed down his hair crown, and left gracefully.

Looking at her son's straight back as he left, Mrs. Wang rubbed her red and swollen eyes, sighed deeply, and finally sat up straight with gritted teeth.

She had no way to avoid this battle. After all, compared to her mother's family, her son was her lifelong support.

Pei Jin left the main courtyard. It was already dark and lanterns were lit on the main road. He walked slowly towards Zhuxiang Garden with a lot on his mind. Just before talking to his mother about the Wang sisters, he had already personally agreed to the marriage with Wuyang Marquis's Mansion.

Since this eldest daughter of the Wuyang Marquis family is the one chosen by my mother and she is not too unpleasant, then it doesn't matter who I marry, right?

As long as she can be competent for the position of the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion, take care of the household chores, support her husband and raise her children, and serve her parents-in-law, I will give her the respect and dignity she deserves.

But what about Chan Yi? What about An Er? He suddenly felt a little flustered, thinking of how Chan Yi had forced herself to smile and persuade him to get married and have children as soon as possible. He felt inexplicably flustered. Could she be crying secretly behind his back?

He quickened his pace, wanting to see her immediately.

"Master, you're back." Chan Yi didn't expect him to come back so soon.

"Does your shoulder still hurt?" He held her body and reached out to unbutton her jacket.

"It doesn't hurt anymore." Chan Yi took a step back and shook her head like a rattle.

"Don't move, let me see." Pei Jin took a step forward and pressed her firmly in front of him.

"No, I'm really fine." Chan Yi protected her clothes and whispered, "It's just a minor injury, don't worry about it, my lord."

"But you..." Pei Jin looked into her eyes, trying to find some flaws. But he did not see her red and swollen eyes.

"It's really alright." Chan Yi said with a smile, "Master, Chan Yi is a maid who can receive such love from you, I have long been satisfied. Don't worry, when the mistress comes in the future, I will serve her wholeheartedly and will never compete for your favor."

"I will never compete for favor?" These words were painful to hear. Pei Jin couldn't help but think of the last time Lin Yi talked about his eldest brother's arranged marriage. His most beloved concubine cried for a whole day and night, and even desperately wanted favor.

"Yeah." Chan Yi nodded repeatedly.

Seeing the well-behaved girl opposite him, Pei Jin felt something was not right. He bent down, picked her up and pressed her down on the couch.

"Young Master, you..." Before Chan Yi could finish her words, her mouth was blocked by someone.

This time, no matter how much she resisted, it was useless as she was forcefully pressed under him.

What kind of evil anger is this? Chan Yi was anxious and angry. While they were entangled, she bit his tongue hard.

"Hiss..." The man felt a sharp pain on the tip of his tongue, and a rusty taste immediately filled his mouth. This little girl was usually so delicate and soft, but she actually dared to bite her now. She was really brave.

He suddenly became irritated and tore half of her clothes with a ripping sound. Her fair and tender skin was immediately exposed in front of him, which made him burn with desire. He rushed over and tore off her clothes without any care.

"You..." Chan Yi screamed and hugged her chest in panic.

I thought that during this period of time, she had been compromising and trying to gain his favor by being well-behaved, sensible and pitiful, thinking that he might have a little pity for her. Now, it seems that I was overthinking. How could such a man have pity for a lowly maid like her!

The prince of the Marquisate, from a young age, believed that concubines and maids were just tools for them to vent their lust, just playthings. Who would have feelings for a tool? Even if it was his father, once the interests of the Marquisate were involved, he would still abandon Aunt Liu and her son.

But she didn't want to get that little bit of pitiful love from him at first. She just wanted to fight for some rights for herself and An'er.

"What! You dare to bite me?" Pei Jin's face darkened when he saw her protecting her chest and he became even angrier. "Do you mean you don't want me to touch you?"

"Master, it's not like that. Chanyi just bumped her shoulder and it hurt." Chanyi pouted slightly, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Why didn't you say so earlier?" The man immediately became worried and held her in his arms. He checked her shoulder and saw that the bruise had been rubbed away, but the red mark had become bigger. He regretted that he had been too rough and hurt her.

"Master, I'm in so much pain." She stretched out her hands and clasped his neck tightly, leaning towards him with a wronged look on her face.

The soft and plump skin pressed against his hard chest, and Pei Jin's three souls had already been lost to two.
