Becoming a widow for the sake of good fortune? The short-lived prince lived a hundred years

Yan Xueqi's smile froze, and her hand stopped in mid-air. It was not right to withdraw it, nor was it right not to withdraw it.

Just now, when she looked at Prince An's face, she couldn't help herself. Although she knew that this behavior was inappropriate, she didn't expect Prince An to not give her any face at all.

She withdrew her hand, and her eyes suddenly turned red.

Chu Jinxun was even more puzzled, and his tone was full of curiosity and innocence: "Is there something wrong with the Second Miss's eyes? They are so red, we should see the imperial physician. Ahem… She is so young, it would be bad if she went blind!"

Yan Xueqi's romantic thoughts disappeared, tears streaming down her face. I felt pity for her, as if she had suffered a great injustice. She felt ashamed and angry. "Did my brother-in-law hear some bad rumors, or did someone say something to you? You, you deliberately humiliated me?"

Chu Jinxun's eyes suddenly lit up: "Rumors? What rumors? Did I humiliate you? Tell me, how did I humiliate you? Ahem…"

Tian Jiaying quickly stepped in to smooth things over: "Your Highness, please calm down. Xueqi is young and naive, and her words may be inappropriate. Please be magnanimous and don't argue with her."

"Young? Ignorant? Aren't she and Xining twins? Ah, I know, ahem… the former Marquis' wife had a difficult birth. Could it be that her brain remained in the former Marquis's womb when she was born, poisoning her to death?"

Chu Jinxun glanced at Tian Jiaying and shook his head. "The former Marquis' wife had a miserable life. Wouldn't it have been better if she had only given birth to Xining? How unfair it is that she was killed by the Second Miss?"

No matter how thick-skinned Yan Xueqi was, she couldn't bear it. Wasn't this just calling her brainless and a jinx to her face? Fortunately, this happened in the Marquis' Mansion. If this got out, she would be ruined.

She wasn't born to that bitch!

"Your Highness, you're going too far. I'm one of the three most talented women in the capital, after all. How can you scold me like that?"

"Hey, did I scold you?" Chu Jinxun looked at Tian Jiaying, then at Yan Xueqi. "When I got off the car just now, I saw you two were practically glued to each other. I was a little puzzled at first. How could a stepmother and stepdaughter be so close? Now I understand: the Second Miss is your great benefactor, Madam Hou!"

"What do you mean, Your Highness?" Tian Jiaying could no longer maintain her smile!

"If the Second Miss hadn't killed the First Madam, how could you have married into the Marquis's mansion and become the Marquis's wife? Ahem...it's no wonder you pinned the reputation of being a mother-killer on Xining, and then treated the Second Miss well, ahem...now it all makes sense!"

Yan Xueqi burst into tears, covered her face and ran away angrily.

Tian Jiaying was so angry that her face turned blue. This sick bastard was so rude! He had no regard for her at all. Was he just trying to piss her off to death?

Yan Xining glanced at Chu Jinxun in surprise.

When she came here today, she had no intention of letting these three people go.

A month ago, she had suddenly been transported from the countryside to this wealthy home, feeling completely out of place. Tian Jiaying had placed her in a remote courtyard, presumably to teach her the proper manners, and had forbidden her from leaving the house.

She also wanted to be close to her father. Once, she mustered up the courage and brought a plate of homemade cakes to Yan Xiaozhen, but he ruthlessly waved his sleeve and knocked her to the ground, pointing at her nose and scolding her.

What fell to the ground, besides the cakes and pastries, was also her daughter's true love.

That was not the end. After Tian Jiaying found out, she sent a few maids to grab her and slapped her in the face. Tian Jiaying did it herself.

She was cursing as she fought, and it was from her harsh curses that the original body gathered some information: she was not taken away by mistake, but her father angered her mother to death in order to marry this woman, and then threw her into the countryside, letting Tian Jiaying's daughter take her place and become the eldest daughter of Weiyuan Marquis's Mansion.

Later, the emperor granted the marriage, and the eldest daughter of the Weiyuan Marquisate was engaged to Prince An. They had been waiting and watching. Although Prince An was in poor health, he was a prince after all. With the help of the skilled imperial doctors, who knew that he might be cured?

Unexpectedly, the emperor decided to marry Prince An to get him married. They were reluctant to let Yan Xueqi, whom they had carefully trained, marry a sickly prince who might die tomorrow, so they hurriedly took her in.

However, he didn't tell his original self about his marriage until the wedding date was approaching.

The original body resisted because she didn't want her fate to be manipulated like this, but was beaten to death by Tian Jiaying's men and stuffed into the bridal sedan.

When she came, she promised to avenge her original self.

Moreover, even if there had not been the previous episode, she had used this body, and she had received great favors from the original body, and she would repay her kindness and avenge her hatred!

But unexpectedly, before she even started to do anything, Chu Jinxun made Tian Jiaying so angry that she almost died on the spot with just a few words.

Tian Jiaying gritted her teeth, practically squeezing out a few words: "Your Highness is such a joke. It's not good to make groundless assumptions!"

Chu Jinxun's expression suddenly darkened: "Are you teaching me how to do things?"

A fierce aura suddenly came towards me.

Tian Jiaying: “…”

A mouthful of old blood choked in her throat, making her unable to swallow or spit it out, but she had to force a smile: "No, I dare not!"

She turned to look at Yan Xining with an angry look. This bitch must have said something, otherwise, why would Prince An speak so harshly?

Yan Xining drank tea calmly without even looking at her.

That nonchalant look made Tian Jiaying furious again.

When she was in the mansion, this little bitch was completely subdued. She wouldn't think that she has become rich now, right?

At this time, footsteps were heard and Yan Xiaozhen strode into the main hall.

He hadn't arrived yet when the laughter came over. He glanced at Chu Jinxun and Yan Xining who were sitting comfortably, and then he bowed and said, "Greetings, Your Highness. I was just dealing with some things, so I'm sorry for not coming to greet you!"

Weiyuan Hou was over forty years old, a soldier with a sturdy build. He looked rough and uncouth, but his eyes were deep, and he had a certain aura of authority without anger. He didn't look like a naive person at first glance.

Chu Jinxun opened the tea bowl, took a sip, and then said, "My Lord, you are too polite! Ahem...did I offend you before?"

Yan Xiaozhen was stunned. Was he coming to call her to task for the substitutionary marriage? Or was he displeased because he was late? He wouldn't entertain that question. He laughed heartily, "Your Highness, why do you say that? You are of noble rank; if anyone is to be offended, it should be me."

"Ahem... Is that so? Does the Marquis look down on me?"

"When did this Marquis look down on the prince?"

Chu Jinxun sighed softly: "This prince and the princess are one. You only met this prince, but did not salute this princess. Ahem...if that's not looking down on this prince, what is it?"

Yan Xiaozhen: “…”

His face instantly turned the color of liver. "Well, Xining is my daughter. How can a father greet his daughter politely?"

"Your Majesty is wrong! Heaven, Earth, Emperor, Parents, and Teachers. First there is the emperor and his subjects, then there are fathers and daughters. Ahem… Your Majesty, are the rules between father and daughter greater than the rules between emperor and his subjects?"
