I have traveled through time, who am I afraid of?

Crown Prince Xiao Jingye thought for a moment and nodded, "Indeed, this is a half-baked solution!"

He's in a coma. Even if it's the Emperor, he can't force someone in a coma to oversee the funeral arrangements for Zhang Jinyan's family!

His idea is quite good.

But... would our father grant him his wish?

"Of course it's impossible!"

Xiao Jingyu shook his head with a smile, "It doesn't matter that Xiao Jingyi is unconscious. We can just have the head of the Prince Yi's mansion take charge!"

"The boss?

Wasn't Princess Zhang Miaoying already dead?

Could it be... that Father Emperor intends for his two concubines to intervene?

Crown Princess Fang Haoqing asked with a puzzled look.

"A concubine is absolutely out of the question!"

A concubine, or as it's called, is really nothing more than a mistress.

"How can I, a concubine, represent the Prince Yi's mansion to take charge of the overall situation?"

Seeing the questioning looks on his elder brother and sister-in-law's faces, Xiao Jingyu solemnly began to explain.

"A concubine is not allowed, only the principal wife is allowed. Then let the Prince Yi's mansion have a principal wife!"

Since Prince Yi was unconscious and there was no one to manage the Prince Yi's residence, the Emperor directly issued an edict to make Consort Shui, a concubine in the Prince Yi's residence, the Prince Yi's principal wife, and let her take charge of the Prince Yi's residence!

Oh, by the way, the Prince Yi's mansion currently only has one concubine, Lady Shui...

Because another concubine, Hua Yinyin, has been carrying a sharp blade every day since she was forced into the Prince Yi's mansion, spending her days with only the dim light of a lamp and the ancient Buddha, desperately trying to preserve her purity.

Recently, her father, Hua Zhongjian, had knelt before the emperor in the Golden Hall, requesting permission to bring his daughter home, and the emperor immediately granted his request.

On that very day, immediately after the morning court session, Minister Hua went to Prince Yi's residence and took his daughter, Hua Yinyin, away!

Therefore, only one concubine, Lady Shui, remained in Prince Yi's mansion.

Therefore, Concubine Shui became the current Princess Consort of Prince Yi!

After hearing Xiao Jingyu's account, Crown Prince Xiao Jingye and Crown Princess Fang Haoqing exchanged a glance, stunned for a moment, and then exclaimed in unison, "Father is wise!"

The phrase "Father is wise" brought a smile to the faces of all four present!

"In order to escape, Prince Yi did not hesitate to make himself fall into a coma."

However, when Prince Yi awoke, he learned that while he was unconscious, he had acquired a new principal wife, who was none other than his former concubine, Lady Shui…

I wonder what Prince Yi will think?

What will his expression be like?

"His expression must be priceless!"

Leng Rongyue also laughed from the side.

"However, I'm not particularly interested in what Prince Yi will think or how he will react when he wakes up and learns that he has a principal wife."

What interests me is how this newly appointed Princess Consort of Prince Yi will take charge of the funeral arrangements for Zhang Jinyan's family in her capacity as Princess Consort of Prince Yi!

Today is the day the Emperor has decreed that the Prince Yi's residence should arrange the funeral for Zhang Jinyan's family!

I'm thinking... This Princess Shui, who was just made Princess Consort of Prince Yi by the Emperor yesterday, is overjoyed. She could never have imagined that overnight, the wealth in Prince Yi's treasury and her own dowry would disappear without a trace. Can she bear this blow?

Furthermore, Zhang Miaoying was the former principal wife of Prince Yi.

When Zhang Miaoying became the principal wife, Shui was only a concubine.

I refuse to believe that Shui, as a concubine, didn't feel even the slightest bit of envy, jealousy, or hatred towards the principal wife, Zhang Miaoying!

The former principal wife, Zhang Miaoying, had been divorced and died with a criminal record, while the concubine, Shui, had become the principal wife of Prince Yi.

It would be strange if the Shui family could properly handle the funeral arrangements for the former Princess Yi, Zhang Miaoying, and her family!

I guess... forget about getting a coffin, setting up a mourning hall, or building a cemetery. The Zhang family will be lucky to even have a straw mat and a pit for a hasty burial!

Leng Rongyue's guess was absolutely right!

Shui Shi's smug smile as she became Prince Yi's principal wife hadn't faded from her face by the next day when it was replaced by the heartache of having her valuables inexplicably cleared out and the despair of being frightened.

Shui Simiao hadn't originally planned to hold a proper and grand funeral for the former Princess Yi's family. Now, with all these troublesome matters to deal with, Shui Simiao had even less inclination to handle the funeral arrangements for the former Princess Yi's family.

Just as she had planned, she directly instructed her steward, Yin Fu, to gather some beggars on the street, claiming it was for poverty alleviation and charity.

“You…go to the streets and find a few beggars, give them a few taels of silver, let them buy a few straw mats, then go to the Heavenly Prison, to the Shuntian Prefecture Prison, retrieve the bodies of Zhang Jinyan and his family, then roll them up and send them to the desolate outskirts of the city, find a place that won’t get in the way, dig a hole and bury them!”

When the steward Yin Fu received the instructions from the newly appointed Princess Yi, he felt his head buzzing and becoming as big as a bucket!

I could still see stars, and I was even a little unsteady on my feet.

"Will this... will it work?"

Butler Yin Fu asked cautiously.

Why not?

The Zhang family were criminals of the imperial court!

Could it be... that you want me to set up a mourning hall for them and dress them in white and white mourning clothes?

They even want me to buy them several coffins made of Phoebe zhennan wood to bury their bodies?

Do you really want me to build them a luxurious cemetery, hold a seven-day memorial service for them, and give them a grand funeral?

They are sinners! Sinners!

understand?

"It's just the aftermath of a sinner's death, what more do you want?"
