The mistress is reborn, no one who bullies me can escape

Why didn't the Xue family come earlier or later, but had to take action on the day of his wedding!

Thinking of Xue Jinhua who was still angry with him, the prince's face darkened even more, and he lowered his voice and asked, "What did they do?"

"The Xue family has taken away all the food in the warehouse."

Shipped away?

The prince's eyes darkened.

The grain price in Nanling is already volatile. If this batch of grain is transported away, the grain price in Nanling will definitely rise.

By doing this, are the Xue family trying to cause chaos in Nanling?

"Are there any other granaries around here?"

"Your Highness, we do have some in Lingzhou, but it will take at least a month to transport them to Nanling."

More than a month?

The prince frowned, this time was too long.

"Send the prefect to see me." After the prince said this, he turned around and hurried back to the study with big strides. At this moment, he had completely lost the intention of entering the bridal chamber.

.........

In the room, after Xue Jinhua successfully drove the prince away, she still felt a little regretful. After all, the other party was the prince, wasn't it a bit disrespectful to him to do this?

She had expected the prince to knock on the door again and speak, so that she could get up and open the door for him. However, to her surprise, the prince waited outside the door for a while and then left silently. This made her feel relieved.

To be honest, she was not a woman who was very chaste and strong-willed. She was mentally prepared for the marriage consummation tonight. It was just that she suddenly changed her groom and was deceived, so she couldn't cope with it.

Now that the prince is gone, she feels much calmer.

Xue Jinhua thought this was a good opportunity to take a break, so she didn't pay attention to what was happening outside the entire night and slept very soundly.

The next morning, she got up early, and the maid beside her changed from red clothes to green clothes.

When Qing Yi saw her, tears instantly flowed from her eyes and she choked up and said, "Miss..."

After realizing that her young lady was now married, she quickly changed her words, "Madam, I'm sorry. I found something wrong yesterday and wanted to tell you, but I was knocked unconscious."

Xue Jinhua certainly understood that the prince came well prepared this time, and Qingyi was originally someone the prince arranged to be by his side, so even if she didn't tell her anything, Xue Jinhua could understand.

"I know, it's not your fault."

"Thank you ma'am."

Qingyi was so excited that her eyes were filled with tears, and she almost cried with joy. She quickly said, "Then let this servant come and help Madam wash up. I have to serve tea to the old lady later."

"it is good."

Xue Jinhua nodded to show her agreement.

Qingyi immediately began to prepare quickly and soon got everything ready.

Just then, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince walked in.

"Ma'am, did you sleep well last night?"

He had a lazy look on his face, and although he looked a little out of tune, from the tone of his voice, he seemed to be in a good mood.

Xue Jinhua was still a little angry, but after a whole night, she had slowly calmed down.

Although he still had resentment in his heart, after careful consideration, Xue Jinhua realized that facing the current situation of the Xue family, only the prince could give him the strongest protection.

After all, no matter who she has a conflict with, she will never joke about her own life.

Although she felt somewhat dissatisfied and aggrieved in her heart, she had to learn to compromise when facing the prince.

"Thanks to Second Master, I had a good rest last night." There was a hint of resentment in Xue Jinhua's tone, and it was obvious that she was still upset about what happened last night.

The prince was stunned and then fell silent. He knew that Xue Jinhua was still furious.

But now is not the best time to resolve this matter. They will have enough time to deal with their problems later.

So he changed the subject and said, "Mother has been waiting for a long time, let's go over there quickly."

"Okay." Xue Jinhua responded and followed the prince.

Along the way, Xue Jinhua was always suspicious, until she confirmed that there was no one around, she finally couldn't help but ask: "Second Master, there is something in my mind that I don't understand, I don't know if I should ask you for advice."

"About my identity?" Although the prince was walking in front, he deliberately slowed down his pace in order to keep pace with Xue Jinhua behind him.

A breeze blew by, bringing a hint of heat. Xue Jinhua turned her head to look at his handsome face.

Although he was wearing a silver mask, she had seen his true face before, and just from the three-dimensional outline, she could outline his peerless features.

Her heart couldn't help but tremble slightly.

"Yeah." Xue Jinhua did not hide anything.

"Let's go pay our respects to our mother first, and I'll tell you in detail later."

Xue Jinhua nodded, and the two of them soon arrived at Old Madam Qian's residence.

Seeing them coming, Madam Qian seemed very happy, but she knew in her heart that Madam Qian did not really like her, and only loved her because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was present.

Xue Jinhua respectfully handed over a cup of tea and said softly, "Mother, please have some tea."

Madam Qian took the teacup, took a sip symbolically, then took off a bracelet and put it in her hand, saying gently: "Child, I really wronged you. You must live a good life with the Second Master in the future."

"Daughter-in-law, please remember your mother's words." Xue Jinhua said.

Old Madam Qian nodded slightly, her gaze slowly fell on the prince, and a hint of relief flashed in her eyes.

She took the tea handed to her by the prince, took a sip, and then began to cough violently.

After a while, she waved her hand tiredly and said in a low voice: "Forget it, I'm a little tired, you all can go down. If you don't want to go back to Kyoto, don't come to my yard again in the future."

The prince and Xue Jinhua looked at each other and said in unison, "Okay." Then they turned and left the room.

After the two men left, Madam Qian's face became paler and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.

She leaned on the bed, her eyes empty and lifeless, as if she had lost all life.

Master Tiandao stepped forward quickly, supported Madam Qian's body, and asked with concern: "Madam, what's wrong with you? Do you want to call the imperial physician to come and see?"

Madam Qian waved her hand and said weakly, "Don't bother me. I know my own physical condition very well."

Master Tiandao frowned. He knew that Madam Qian's condition was very serious, but there was nothing he could do.

He sighed and said helplessly: "Old lady, you must take care of yourself!"

Madam Qian smiled slightly, revealing a hint of sadness in her smile: "How many days do I have left?"

Master Tiandao counted with his fingers, then raised his head and said in a heavy tone: "Old lady, I have another year. I will try my best to find other ways to extend your life."

Madam Qian shook her head and said with a bitter smile: "No need, this is all fate. She stole my fate back then, but now that person is still alive and well, I won't force anything anymore."

"But now I can see Yan'er can start a family and build a career, I am already satisfied."

"Madam, please stop thinking like that! Second Master and his wife haven't consummated their marriage yet, so this can't be considered as overcoming the difficulties. Besides, the affairs of the Qian family still depend on you..." Master Tiandao advised earnestly, "Madam, don't worry, she will definitely get the retribution she deserves, and you will be able to see it all with your own eyes."

The old lady shook her head and said firmly, "My life is not important. You must find a way to let them consummate their marriage today. You can tell them that I don't have much time left and Yan'er's matter can't be delayed any longer."

She had long since become indifferent to her own life and death, but she could never let go of the fate of her son.

As long as her son is safe, she is willing to pay any price.

"it is good."
