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

Ling Yan's identity is rather special, so after returning to Kyoto, he naturally became extremely sensitive.

He returned as the Second Master of Qian, while the prince's journey was still ahead of him.

Therefore, when they entered the city gate, they must not show themselves as princes, and Xue Jinhua could not appear in Kyoto for no reason.

"Do you have a token?"

"Who are you? How dare you stop the Qian family's carriage?"

The shouting coming from outside made Xue Jinhua frown slightly.

It has only been half a year since I left Kyoto, and there is such a big scene. Could it be that something earth-shattering has happened in Kyoto?

"Not to mention the Qian family, even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince comes in person, he will have to be inspected."

"Who gave you such a big tone?"

Ling Yan's voice was as cold as ice, and Xue Jinhua trembled all over just sitting in the carriage.

The guards outside had never seen someone with such a strong aura, and they were stunned for a moment.

"Master Qian, right?"

A voice as deep as a bell sounded, and Xue Jinhua couldn't help but frown slightly.

The wind blew the curtain on the carriage, lifting a corner. Xue Jinhua looked from this angle and saw a masked man standing not far away.

But his face was tilted to the side, so Xue Jinhua couldn't see his features clearly.

Ling Yan remained silent, still staring at him condescendingly.

Obviously, she didn't know the person in front of her.

"There is an assassin in the palace, and he is now on the run. I am arresting the criminal under your order."

"Using chicken feathers as a token of authority?" Ling Yan couldn't help but chuckle, "Isn't this ridiculous? Even if we are arresting criminals, we should arrest those who escaped. We should also check those who enter the city. Can an assassin enter the city openly?"

"Second Master, you are absolutely right. It is because we have failed to do our job well. I will let you go now."

Although the man's voice was a little hoarse, Xue Jinhua always felt that it seemed familiar.

Her thoughts involuntarily fell on that person's shoulders. As the carriage swayed, Xue Jinhua inadvertently caught a glimpse of that figure, and her heart couldn't help but tighten.

Could it be...

"Who is this person?"

The carriage continued driving for a while, and Xue Jinhua heard Ling Yan's voice.

"Master, this man is Young Master Jin, the Third Princess's man. I heard that the Imperial Master brought him back from Mobei. The Third Princess likes him very much and asked for him directly."

"The Third Princess was absolutely infatuated with him and loved him very much. She couldn't bear to have him stay in the Princess's Mansion and serve her, so she lowered herself to find a job for him in front of the Emperor."

People from Mobei?

Xue Jinhua's doubts disappeared in an instant. It seemed that she was just overthinking.

Looking closely, the man was more sturdy and robust than Zhao Yuxuan.

Zhao Yuxuan follows the path of a weak scholar and knows no martial arts at all.

Thinking about it this way, the two people are definitely not the same person.

She must have been overthinking it.

"The Third Princess is so disrespectful that she even granted an official position to a captive slave?" Ling Yan's face was so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out of it.

The third princess was the daughter of the emperor's favorite concubine, Concubine Jing. However, she had been unruly and willful since childhood. After she got married, she caused chaos in her husband's family, and her husband was angered to death by her early on.

Now she is alone and the emperor feels pity for her, but he doesn't want her to become more and more demanding.

At first, she just kept slaves in the princess's mansion, and few people knew about it. But now, she has exposed these ugly things to the public, which is a great shame for the royal family.

However, these are not the key points. The key point is that the emperor actually agreed.

what does this mean?

My father is so stupid to the extreme.

The carriage continued to move forward slowly and finally arrived at the residence of Master Qian Erye.

Before Xue Jinhua had a chance to rest, she hurriedly changed a carriage and rushed out from the back door.

Soon, they arrived at the back door of a house.

"Draw, here we are."

Xue Jinhua got out of the car, and Qingyi said softly, "Madam, let's go in first and talk."

The huge yard was so deserted that it seemed as if no one was there.

At this time, Ling Yan had taken off his mask. His expression was cold, just like the cold moon hanging high in the sky, competing with the moonlight, like an inviolable iceberg.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince is greeted by this old minister." A slightly old voice suddenly sounded, and she was surprised to realize that there were other people present.

"Master Wen, are you clear about the arrangements?"

"Old minister understands."

Ling Yan was very satisfied, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, like a shooting star across the night sky. "Back off."

After Master Wen left, Ling Yan slowly explained, "This is the new identity I arranged for you."

Xue Jinhua already understood what was going on, but she was still shocked, causing ripples in her heart. "Master Wen's daughter?"

"Yes."

Xue Jinhua frowned, and Ling Yan hurriedly explained, "I'm sure you know that I'm already engaged to the daughter of Lord Wen."

Xue Jinhua was naturally well aware of this. Her eyes were like the deep waters of a lake, without a single ripple.

"I know. I heard that when Miss Wen reached the marriageable age, she went crazy and seemed to have disappeared. This means that Miss Wen is dead."

"Yes, Miss Wen did go crazy and eventually died. Master Wen was so heartbroken that he told everyone that she was recuperating at home in the years after Miss Wen's death."

"My father also tacitly agreed to this matter. Now that you are back, our marriage is finalized."

So that's how it is. However, Xue Jinhua was still worried. She said, "Although I have changed into a new identity now, everyone in Kyoto knows my appearance and voice. If those people with ulterior motives knew my true identity, wouldn't all my previous efforts be in vain?" Thinking of this, a trace of worry flashed in her eyes.

At this moment, Ling Yan slowly spread out his palms, and two crystal clear pills lay quietly in his palms.

Xue Jinhua was full of confusion and couldn't help asking, "What on earth is this?"

Ling Yan patiently explained: "One of these pills can quietly change your voice, making it completely different; and the other pill can change your appearance."

"You just need to take them. Even if others have doubts in their hearts, they will definitely not be able to find any solid evidence."

Hearing this, Xue Jinhua widened her eyes and looked surprised.

She had never thought that there would be such a magical elixir in this world!

Ling Yan not only has to shoulder the heavy responsibility of becoming the crown prince, but also has to deal with various forces as the Second Master Qian. Although he tries his best to conceal it on weekdays, if you listen carefully, you can still detect some differences.

Now it seems that it was the magical effects of these two pills that played a key role.

However, a question came to her mind. If this pill could easily change one's appearance, why did he wear that mask when he appeared as Master Qian? She frowned tightly and fell into deep contemplation. Her mind was filled with thousands of thoughts, as if countless mysteries were intertwined before her eyes...

Ling Yan saw through her doubts at a glance and said calmly, "These pills can only slightly modify your appearance, they can't really change it. As for the effect, why don't you try it yourself?"

Xue Jinhua nodded, entered the room, and swallowed the two pills.

After a while, she felt her throat getting cold, and when she spoke, her voice changed quietly.

The crisp voice of the past has now become hoarse, as if the voice is deliberately lowered, yet it seems extremely natural.

Unable to suppress her inner anxiety, she held the bronze mirror and carefully examined her face, trying to find any changes in it.

Sure enough, she found that her appearance began to be slightly different, but it seemed that there was no change.

The only noticeable change is the mole at the corner of her eye, which makes her look more charming.

"This is so magical." Xue Jinhua couldn't help but sigh.

“It’s really amazing.”

Compared with her previous dignified appearance, she now looks even more beautiful and charming.

Such a bright and beautiful painting of Xue Jin is really hard to look away.

"Is this...really okay?" Xue Jinhua still felt a little worried in her heart.

"It'll be okay. Leave the rest to me." His words were firm and confident, as if they had some magical power that could dispel the uneasiness in Xue Jinhua's heart.

However, it was this seemingly firm attitude that made Xue Jinhua's heart inexplicably sink.

"What about Azhe?" Xue Jinhua's voice was trembling. She couldn't bring her brother in here as well, right?

"I have found a place for him. He will meet you then." Ling Yan gently held her hand. The warmth passed through their skin, making Xue Jinhua feel a little warm.

His eyes revealed endless affection, as if telling her that everything was under his control. "Huahua, I just hope that we can be together more openly in the future..."
