After the marriage, the abstinent prince turned me on

Li Zhong looked at Zhang Hu's frustrated expression and felt much better. He readily agreed, "Okay, I'll treat you tonight. Order whatever you want!"

Qing He and Li Zhong were in love with each other and spent the whole day together, completely forgetting about the affairs of the Prince's Mansion.

Xie Mishuang and Ouyang Jing saw it, but turned a blind eye.

A few days later, a carriage slowly drove into the Prince's Mansion, and Qinghe's aunt and her family finally arrived.

Qing He had been waiting at the door early. When she saw the carriage stop, she hurried forward and greeted them warmly, "Aunt, Uncle, you're finally here!"

Mrs. Ge got down from the carriage, took Qinghe's hand, and smiled from ear to ear: "Qinghe, Auntie has missed you so much! Come, let me introduce you. This is your cousin. You haven't met him yet, and he hasn't married yet. You young people should get to know him well."

Qing He followed Mrs. Ge's gaze and saw a man about the same height as her standing beside her. He had dark skin, a thin build, and looked a little dull.

"Cousin," the man said shyly, his voice a little hoarse, "My name is Liu Qiang. These past few days, my mother has been praising you for your beauty and wants me to marry you. I didn't believe it, but I didn't expect you to be so beautiful. My mother really didn't lie to me!"

Qing He's mouth twitched, and she ignored her "cousin" and continued to lead them to a guest room where servants lived.

Although the guest room was a bit simple, it was made of green bricks and tiles, and was a hundred times better than their leaky thatched house in the countryside.

But as soon as Mrs. Gerhardt entered the room, her nose was not a nose, her eyes were not eyes, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

"Qinghe, aren't you close to the eldest lady? Why did you arrange for us to stay in a place like this?" Mrs. Ge shrilled, her tone full of dissatisfaction. "I think there are some nice rooms we passed by before, with carved beams and painted buildings. Let's go there."

As she spoke, she fanned herself exaggeratedly with her handkerchief.

Liu Piezi, Qinghe's uncle, who was standing by, also nodded in agreement: "Yeah, it looks spacious there, it must be comfortable to live in." He rubbed his hands, his small eyes rolling around, greedily looking at everything around him.

Qing He took a deep breath, trying to suppress the anger in her heart, and still maintained a polite smile: "Uncle and aunt, those side rooms are for distinguished guests, they are not very convenient, these few are more than enough for you."

"What do you mean by 'more than enough'? How can you talk like that, child?" Mrs. Ge plopped down on the hard wooden bed and shouted in dissatisfaction, "These places are clearly servants' quarters. We are not servants of the Crown Prince's Mansion. We are invited by the Crown Princess. We are guests after all. How can you put guests in the servants' quarters?"

The more she spoke, the more excited she became, and her voice grew louder and louder, as if Qinghe had committed some heinous crime.

Liu Piezi also chimed in, "That's right, Qinghe. Although you're the Crown Princess's personal maid, you grew up with her. I heard she treats you like her own sister! And we're your relatives. How could we treat our sister's relatives like this?"

As he spoke, he secretly nudged Liu Qiang next to him with his elbow, signaling him to speak quickly.

Liu Qiang had been envious since he walked in and saw the magnificent Prince's Mansion.

How wonderful it would be if he could live here forever! He imagined himself wearing silk and satin, enjoying delicacies from land and sea, and surrounded by beautiful women...

"Qinghe..." He was about to speak when he was frightened by Qinghe's sharp eyes and retracted his neck.

"What do you think this place is?" Qing He looked at their greedy eyes and said in a serious tone, "This is the Crown Prince's residence, not a place for you to act recklessly! If you really offend any of the nobles in the residence, you will suffer the consequences! Even the Crown Princess may not be willing to protect you!"

She paused, her tone even colder: "If you don't want to live here, I will arrange for you to live in the other courtyard outside the mansion. It's quiet and spacious there, and you won't be an eyesore here!"

When Liu Qiang heard Qinghe wanted to drive them away, he immediately became anxious.

He also wanted to develop a relationship with Qinghe in the Prince's Mansion!

"Mom, Dad, let's live here!" He quickly persuaded his parents, "I think it's much better than our village."

Mrs. Ge and Liu Piezi looked at each other and saw resentment in each other's eyes.

But they also knew that now was not the time to fall out with Qinghe.

"All right, all right, we'll stay here," said Mrs. Gerhardt reluctantly.

As soon as Qing He had settled the three of them down, Liu Qiang couldn't wait to come up to her, rubbing his hands together, and said to her in a flattering manner, "Qing He, it's still early, why don't you take me around the mansion so I can get familiar with the surroundings."

Qing He frowned and refused bluntly, "This is the Prince's Mansion. Do you think it's a big market where anyone can come and shop here?" Her tone was cold and her eyes were sharp.

"You..." Liu Qiang was choked speechless by Qinghe's words, his face flushed red.

"Qinghe, how can you talk like that?" Mrs. Ge jumped up immediately upon seeing this, pointing her finger at Qinghe's nose and swearing, "It's not easy for us to come all this way here, can't you just speak properly? Besides, Qiangzi is your cousin, what's wrong with taking him out for a walk?"

Seeing this, Liu Piezi quickly grabbed Mrs. Ge and whispered to her, "Okay, okay, it's normal for young people to quarrel. Maybe it can help them develop feelings for each other." As he spoke, he secretly winked at Mrs. Ge, signaling her not to make a big deal out of it.

Mrs. Ge reluctantly sat down, but her eyes, still filled with dissatisfaction and resentment, as she looked at Qing He. She snorted coldly and said sarcastically, "Some people, after soaring to fame, have forgotten even their last name!"

Qing He turned a deaf ear to Mrs. Ge's sarcasm. She glanced at Liu Qiang coldly, turned around and left, leaving only one sentence echoing in the air: "This is the Prince's Mansion, not a place for you to act wildly. Be careful!"

When Xie Mishuang heard about this, he knew that Qinghe had been wronged.

She frowned slightly and ordered her servants to strictly guard the yard where Liu Qiang's family lived, not allowing them to enter or leave without permission, and to cut off their food supply as a punishment.

A few days later, Mrs. Ge finally lost her patience and shouted in the courtyard, "We are trapped here like prisoners! We have nothing to eat or drink. Are you from the Prince's Mansion going to kill us? How cruel!"

When Qing He heard about this, she rushed over to stop it, fearing that Xie Mi Shuang's reputation would be damaged.

Just as she was trying to persuade Mrs. Ge, Liu Qiang took the opportunity to approach Qinghe and made a move with ill intentions.

Qing He stepped back in horror, "Liu Qiang! What are you doing? Stop immediately!" Her voice was sharp and firm.

At this critical moment, Li Zhong appeared. In anger, he stepped forward and kicked Liu Qiang hard in the vital parts.
