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

Tian Jiaying was a little disappointed. "The dowry we gave you back then was a full 20,000 taels in silver notes alone. Now we're just borrowing 5,000 taels, and you don't even have it? I'll return the silver to you when the Marquis's Mansion is better off!"

"Mother, Daddy values ​​that illegitimate son. You said my brother has been castrated. Even if you rescue him, what will happen? He is no longer the son who can carry on the family line."

Yan Xueqi's voice was a little cold. "Do you know how important money is to me? Are you going to let me fall into poverty, loneliness, and a life of hopelessness just for a useless son who is no longer useful?"

Tian Jiaying was stunned. She never expected that Yan Xueqi was unwilling to lend her money.

"That's your own brother!"

Yan Xueqi's tone grew even colder. "So, your son is still more important to you, isn't he? Since Father sent him to that place, he's already given up on him. If you want to take him back, aren't you going against Father? You know that if you displease Father, he'll definitely take his anger out on me and won't be my support anymore. How difficult will my life be then?"

Tian Jiaying could not utter a word after hearing her daughter's cold words. She looked at Yan Xueqi in shock and disappointment, with a sad look in her eyes.

Yan Xueqi hardened her heart and said, "Mother, don't look at me like that! Haven't you always supported, trusted, and cooperated with Father's decisions? Why are you trying to undermine his decision now?"

"He wants to make his concubine the heir, and he'll bring that concubine into the palace! Do you want to watch them take away everything from your brother?"

Yan Xueqi looked at her and said, "As the mistress, mother should be virtuous and tolerant, not jealous. Besides, isn't my brother already engraved? If Yan Jize can really restore the glory of the Marquisate and help it revive its reputation, then even taking him back is fine!"

In this way, she would be able to gain more face in front of the Sixth Prince.

Tian Jiaying stopped talking.

She understood everything.

She doted on and protected her grown-up daughter, and only had herself in her heart.

As long as it can bring benefits to her, it doesn’t matter what happens to her as a mother or Lu Chang!

She stood up and said, "Since you won't lend me the money, I'll go raise it somewhere else!"

Seeing Tian Jiaying leave without looking back, Yan Xueqi's face darkened. With a wave of her hand, she swept the teacup on the table to the ground. She knew that her mother only cared about her younger brother. Even if her younger brother had become useless, he was still her most beloved child!

What about me? Who am I? I'm having such a hard time, and she hasn't even said a word of regard.

After all, she was a concubine who became her official wife. Her vision was too narrow and her tolerance was too small.

If Yan Jize is really smart and is valued by his father, and he passes the imperial examination or inherits the title in the future, wouldn't he make the marquisate more prosperous than his useless brother?

She only cares about her younger brother and never thinks about the Marquis' Mansion or her own daughter!

After being angry for a while, Yan Xueqi turned and went into the inner room: "Come here, help me change clothes!"

She is going to see the prince.

Tian Jiaying borrowed money everywhere, but the amount she could borrow was very limited.

The nanny beside her said cautiously: "Madam, the second young lady has no money, but the eldest young lady definitely has some."

Tian Jiaying glared at her. Even if that country girl had money, would she lend it to her?

The nanny whispered, "The young master is his half-brother after all. Even if he and his wife aren't close, they're still related by blood. Perhaps she'd be willing to lend a hand."

Tian Jiaying, who was desperate and had no other options, actually went to Prince An's mansion to deliver a letter.

But when she heard that she wanted to see Princess An, the doorman was very cold: "My prince is seriously ill and has long closed his house to visitors and will not see anyone. The princess is busy tending to the patient and has no time!"

The door slammed shut in her face.

Tian Jiaying was not surprised by this result.

No one knew better than her what Yan Xining had been through in the mansion before. It was normal for him to be unwilling to help her now.

Moreover, she fell into a coma on the day of the banquet given by Prince An in the palace, and it is said that she has never woken up. I am afraid that the country girl has lost her soul. Instead of relying on her, it is better to sell something else and make money faster.

The next evening, Tian Jiaying finally gathered enough money and she hurried to the teahouse again.

However, Mu Lanxing had not arrived yet, so Tian Jiaying had to suppress her anxious heart and wait.

A quarter of an hour later, Mu Lanxing arrived.

Tian Jiaying immediately stepped forward and said, "Sir, I have gathered the silver!"

Mu Lanxing looked at her with sympathy: "Mrs. Yan, remember I told you that if you want to save your son, all you have to do is raise money and don't think of any other methods. Why didn't you listen?"

Tian Jiaying was stunned: "I, I only raised money, I didn't do anything else!"

"Then why did the Sixth Prince know?"

Tian Jiaying was stunned. Seeing that he looked uneasy, her heart sank. It took her a while to find her voice again. "My son, what happened?"

Mu Lanxing shook her head slowly. "According to the information I've received, your son was originally only going to be sent to Jizhou. But at noon today, the Sixth Prince suddenly sent someone to take your son away by name. I believe you can find your son by going to the mass grave now!"

Tian Jiaying swayed, her face turning pale. She muttered unconsciously, "Impossible, impossible. I didn't go to the Sixth Prince. How could he know? Who was it?"

"Who did you tell that you wanted to save your son?"

Suddenly, a figure flashed through Tian Jiaying's unclear mind.

She went to Qi'er to borrow money and told her the whole story, and only told her!

Qi'er is the concubine in the Sixth Prince's mansion.

If she wanted to see the Sixth Prince...

This thought made her shudder. Her heart felt like it was sinking into an ice cellar, as if something was exploding in her brain, again and again, making it impossible for her to think at all, and her whole body was shaking.

Mass grave, mass grave?

She took two steps forward: "You mean, Luchang is... dead?"

Mu Lanxing nodded silently.

"This is the news I received!"

"No, no, it's impossible!" Tian Jiaying screamed and stumbled out the door. She wanted to go and see, her Luchang would not die, not die!

In the Jieyu Courtyard of Prince An's Mansion, on the big bed, the red waves were tossed and the obscene sounds continued, the man's heavy breathing and the woman's delicate moans mixed together.

After a long time, the curtain was opened, and the Sixth Prince Chu Yunyan got off the bed and put on the clothes on the side.

Then, revealing a bare shoulder, Yan Xueqi said charmingly, "Your Highness, are you still busy? Why don't you stay here for the night?"

Chu Yunyan laughed, turned his head, held her chin with his hand, and smiled frivolously: "I have something else to do, I will come to you later!"

Watching him stride away, Yan Xueqi smiled.

She was right to go find His Highness.

She traded news about a useless brother for the Sixth Prince's affection for her.

Maybe she would get pregnant after one romantic encounter?

Thinking of Yan Luchang's possible fate and Tian Jiaying's warning not to tell anyone.

A hint of coldness passed through the corners of her lips.

She has to fight for her own future, why should she keep it secret for a useless waste?

Isn’t it good like this now?
