Harem Daily Life

In Changle Palace, He Xuan found Tao Yanyan as soon as she returned to the palace and reported everything she had encountered in Prince Ding's mansion.

"Mother, I never thought Prince Ding was such a shameless person. Thinking back to the time I also passed out in He Li's room, Prince Ding might have been waiting there, ready to commit a crime. I was lucky that time, Mother, you arrived in time to save me. If I had been unlucky, then... Mother, they have humiliated me so much, I cannot let this vengeance go."

Tao Yanyan nodded: "Of course we can't just let it go like this."

Tao Yanyan thought for a moment and said, "The reputation of Prince Ding's Mansion will undoubtedly be affected. Xuan'er, since you were rescued this time, please do not tell anyone about this matter in the future, lest it give others a reason to criticize you and ruin your reputation. I have already sent people to Prince Ding's fiefdom to investigate. Once we find any mistakes made by Prince Ding's Mansion, we will eradicate them and avenge you."

He Xuan also agreed with Tao Yanyan's approach. She did not suffer any substantial harm this time. If she stood up and made accusations, she would only drag herself into the water.

"Yes, I will listen to you, mother. Everything is up to you. However, Jin'an is here today, and I'm worried that he has guessed what happened. If he gets angry and causes trouble for Prince Ding's Mansion, will he be retaliated by the Mansion?" He Xuan said worriedly.

"Don't worry, Jin'an knows his limits. Besides, he has Yin Jiu by his side, so he won't suffer any loss." Tao Yanyan is very confident in He Jin'an.

It was just as she said. After He Jinan severely taught the servants of Prince Ding's Mansion a lesson, Zhang Jian was scared half to death, but he remained calm.

After Zhang Jian left, Yin Jiu showed up and said, "Second Prince, if you want to teach them a lesson, let me do it. Why do you have to do it yourself?" This made his shadow guard feel very insignificant.

He Jinan glanced at him and said, "It's a rare opportunity to fight, and since I'm doing it to vent my anger for the eldest princess, I'm going to do it myself. However, this Ding Wang Mansion is really despicable. They actually dared to target the eldest princess. They really can't stand living."

Yin Jiu said disdainfully, "There isn't a single normal person among them. The old ones are disrespectful, and the young ones have bad intentions. That He Feng has a reputation for talent, but I don't think his character is much better."

He Jinan's eyes darkened: "A person like this still wants to study in the Imperial College, is he worthy of it?"

In Prince Ding's mansion, Prince Ding was still unconscious, so He Feng had no choice but to persuade him, "Grandma, why don't we... go get the imperial physician."

Princess Ding was at her wit's end. She called the housekeeper and asked him to take the token to the Imperial Hospital. The housekeeper left in a hurry and returned a long time later, looking dusty and exhausted.

"Your Highness, the Imperial Hospital said... they can't see any patients. I've been begging them for a long time, but they still won't relent."

Princess Ding sighed. It seemed that the eldest princess had already reported the matter to the emperor and empress.

"It's over, everything is over." Princess Ding shed a few tears. She was now at a loss and there was really nothing she could do.

Chen Yan looked at her mother-in-law's expression and her heart skipped a beat. A bad premonition arose in her mind.

She was entertaining guests in the front yard during the day and heard a little about what happened in He Li's room. Now she hurriedly took He Li to the next room and asked him carefully.

He Li didn't dare to hide it from her mother any longer, so she told her mother all the evil things she had done in the past three years under the coercion of her grandfather, from the murder of her first best friend to the nineteenth. She told each one a name, when they were invited to cast Wu Si Shui, and where her grandfather had violated them. Everything was explained clearly.

After hearing this, Chen Yan's eyes turned red and her whole body was shaking. "Hey kid, why didn't you tell your mother back then? Now that you've gotten into such a big trouble, how are you going to get out of this unscathed?"

He Li's face was pale as he shook his head. "Let me tell you, Grandfather is going to stop Father's monthly allowance and force Mother and Father to divorce. My brother's future will also be affected. I really have no choice but to obey him."

After He Li finished speaking, she grabbed her mother's hand and said, "Mother, I don't know if I was defiled by my grandfather today. Please find someone you trust to help me check." This was what He Li was most concerned about. As for how long Prince Ding had been unconscious, she didn't care.

Chen Yan also knew that the matter was urgent, so she quickly asked her wet nurse to check her daughter. This innocent girl couldn't be ruined like this.

The results of the examination were a relief, as He Li was still a virgin.

"Thank goodness, thank goodness." Chen Yan felt like she had survived a catastrophe. Pulling He Li over, she said, "I have a feeling Prince Ding's Mansion will have to pay the price for this!"

She looked at He Li and said with determination, "A married daughter will not be implicated by her family. I have to marry you off as soon as possible to keep you safe."

He Li was stunned. She was only fourteen years old this year, and it was too early to discuss marriage.

"It will take a while to find a suitable family, but this matter must be done as soon as possible, otherwise it will take too long and I won't be able to get away with it."

Chen Yan's wet nurse said, "Young Master Biao is a suitable candidate."

He Li heard this and said, "Cousin? Doesn't that mean you're going to marry in Binzhou?" Binzhou is a place with high mountains and long roads. It's not as prosperous as Qianzhou, let alone the capital. He Li was a little skeptical.

Chen Yan thought this was the best solution at the moment. She nodded and said, "My family is in Binzhou. Your cousin is not as good as others, but he is better than others. Things are urgent now. I will write to your aunt and ask them to propose marriage as soon as possible."

"But... will Grandmother agree?" He Li asked. For children from families like theirs, marriages were arranged for alliances, and they generally couldn't make their own decisions. His mother didn't hold power in the mansion, so this matter definitely wouldn't go beyond Grandmother's.

Chen Yan's eyes darkened. "Those two old fools threatened you to do such a nasty thing for them, and I haven't even gotten justice from them yet. If she dares to stop your marriage, I'll turn the whole house upside down."

Because she was worried about the safety of Prince Ding's Mansion, Princess Ding fainted again due to anger. When she woke up, she heard her daughter-in-law say that she wanted to marry He Li to Binzhou as soon as possible.

"Mother, I've thought about it. He Li must marry as soon as possible and sever ties with the palace in order to be safe. I hope that mother will consider my painstaking efforts and agree to this marriage."

Princess Ding rubbed her brows and said unhappily, "There's no news from the royal family yet. Why are you panicking? He Li is the eldest daughter of the royal family, no matter what. How could she marry into a small place like Binzhou? We brought our two children back to the capital, wasn't it to find them good marriages in the capital? I've already considered so many families, and we'll be able to decide soon. Don't be so anxious."

Chen Yan insisted, "Mother, if you had said that a few days ago, I would definitely have been reluctant to let Li'er marry far away in Binzhou. But after what happened today... Mother must have understood that we are trapped in the Dingwang Palace and there is no way we can escape. You absolutely shouldn't have set your sights on the eldest princess, who was raised by Queen Tao."

Princess Ding bit her lip: "Then..."

"Mother, please don't hesitate any longer. Fortunately, I have already prepared Li'er's dowry and sent a letter to my sister. They will come to propose marriage as soon as possible. Let's not go through all those complicated formalities and send Li'er away as soon as possible."
