The Marquise: I Earn My Own Worship

Mr. Xu regretted marrying this woman. If he had known she was so capable of causing trouble, he should not have married her for that small dowry.

"Speak less, she's a princess. It's fine if you're disrespectful on a normal day, but even if you want to say these words, you have to keep them to yourself."

Mr. Xu said this viciously, and Mrs. Xu looked a little scared before nodding hurriedly.

She thought about it but still couldn't get angry. "Every daughter-in-law should serve her parents-in-law well, but in our family, I, as the mother-in-law, have to serve my daughter-in-law. What kind of thing is this?"

Xu said this, still feeling a little aggrieved.

But when she encouraged her son Xu Lang to seduce Princess Le Yi, she didn't look like this.

It's impossible to have both.

She was also "lucky" to have met Le Yi, a princess with a weak temper. If she had married one of those pretty girls in the Rui Palace, the Xu family would have been in turmoil.

Xu was still talking, but she didn't know that death was getting closer and closer.

At lunchtime, Mr. Xu was originally planning to stay in the main courtyard, but when he saw Mrs. Xu complaining incessantly, he lost his mood.

He stood up and left immediately, ready to go outside to find his confidante to relieve his sorrow and boredom.

When Xu saw the master leave, she became even more furious and kept cursing.

I'm so angry that I don't have the mood to eat.

I drank some soup, picked up a few pieces of food casually with my chopsticks, and then asked them to take the food away.

The used soup was quickly brought over by a little maid, "Sisters, this soup has been used by Madam, so give it to me. These are all delicious dishes, please enjoy them, sisters."

When the others saw that it was a bowl of soup, they did not fight with the maid for it. No one had touched the other dishes, so who would be interested in the bowl of soup?

Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, the little maid took the things back to her room.

After a while, she came out and took the initiative to take the rest of the used dishes to the kitchen.

Seeing that the kitchen maid was busy, she took the initiative to do the dishwashing.

"It's okay, Madam is asleep. I don't have any errands to do anyway. It's my blessing to be able to help my mother."

"You're such a sweet talker. I have some leftover snacks. I'll pack two for you later. Eat them quietly and don't tell anyone."

The little maidservant rinsed the bowl of soup and responded with a sweet smile.

Xu returned to her room and lay down feeling a little sleepy. After some incense was lit in the room, she fell into a deep sleep.

When it was night, the servant outside saw that the lady had not gotten up yet, so he bravely went in to wake her up.

The lady usually had a bad temper. If you accidentally woke her up, she would at least scold you, and at most she would have someone prick your arms and chest with a hairpin.

The head maid lifted the curtain with trembling hands and called out softly a few times.

Seeing that the person on the bed didn't move, he took a few steps forward and called out twice, but still no movement.

Realizing something was wrong, she walked forward with a pale face and trembling, and pushed the lady on the bed.

"what!!!"

The Xu family hung up white banners and lit white lanterns.

People in the capital were privately saying that Xu was getting her comeuppance and that she deserved it.

"I heard he died of anger. That's a bit too much."

"Who would sympathize with that woman?"

While the people were talking about it, the Xu family was trembling with fear as they arranged Xu's funeral.

They knew in their hearts that this was the eldest princess's revenge. The first one was Madam Xu, so who would be the second one?

This is just the beginning...

……

"Ladies and gentlemen, please wait a moment. This is a routine inspection."

The guards at the palace gate bowed slightly, and the leading female official nodded.

"Nothing, please come in, Mr. Tan."

Guard Master Tan gestured to the palace maid beside him to come forward.

When entering or leaving the palace, one is not allowed to carry sharp weapons or other unknown items on one's person to prevent concubines or palace maids from smuggling money into the palace. This is an ironclad rule.

This time they entered the palace under the order of His Majesty, so they did not bring anything with them.

"Okay, let me go."

As Lord Tan spoke, he stepped aside politely, with a look of respect between his eyebrows.

"Thank you for your hard work, sir."

A cold voice sounded, and then a group of female officials dressed in blue walked in.

Your Majesty now values ​​these female officials very much. Last time, Concubine De in the palace fell in love with one of the female officials and wanted to marry her to King Xuan as a concubine. She asked Your Majesty to mediate, but was severely scolded.

His Majesty was extremely angry and directly confined Concubine De to her place of residence.

Lord Tan waited until the group left before raising his head, staring at their backs in slight contemplation.

The female official who was valued was the person who had just taken the lead, Sang Yang.

Sang Yang and his group went straight to the Zhengqian Gate, and before they had even waited for a moment, they were summoned in.

He walked through the inner door and continued inside, stopping at the last room.

"Your Majesty, may your Majesty be in good health."

The King of Chu was looking at several boxes of wheat in the middle of the room. He turned around when he heard the sound.

"You guys are here? Get up now."

The King of Chu slowly walked back to the dragon throne and sat down. "Come here, please sit down."

Sangyang and the others knelt down to express their gratitude before standing up and sitting down.

……

When Sang Yang and the others came out again, it was already getting dark.

After saying goodbye to Lord Tan, Sang Yang and the others boarded the girls' school's carriage and left.

There was usually no one around at this time. Lord Tan stood there and the young guard beside him came over.
