"Princess, what do you mean?" Aunt Banxia felt her cheeks burning and couldn't help but question Zhu Qing'an.

Zhu Qing'an looked at Aunt Banxia who was slapped twice on both sides. She still showed no humility. One could imagine how arrogant she was in the mansion on a daily basis.

"Aunt Banxia, ​​you are an elder by my mother's side. I respect you and call you aunt, but in fact, you are just a servant! The second lady is a proper girl in my Hou Mansion and the master. Who gave you the right to point fingers at the master!" Zhu Qing'an raised his eyebrows and asked.

Zhu Baiwei and Zhu Yiqing didn't expect that their elder sister would stand up for them, and their faces showed surprise and gratitude.

"As a servant, I dare to question the princess. I think Aunt Banxia is really senile!" Wangshu stood beside Zhu Qing'an and couldn't help but sneered.

Wangshu had been holding back his breath for a long time. His princess was such a noble person that even the people around the Queen Mother treated her with respect. But back at the Hou Mansion, Aunt Banxia always acted arrogantly in front of the princess. If the princess hadn't stopped her, Wangshu would have been unable to bear it.

Aunt Banxia's face was ugly with anger, but she also knew that every word Zhu Qing'an said was reasonable. She lowered her eyes and said, "It was my negligence. I thought I was also Madam's dowry. I have watched the princess grow up over the years and never thought I would lose my temper!"

"Since you know you have lost your sense of proportion, then take it as a warning!" Zhu Qing'an said, waving his hand and letting Wangshu take the person out, so as not to feel uncomfortable watching him.

As soon as Aunt Banxia left, Zhu Baiwei asked softly, "Sister, you've embarrassed Aunt Banxia like this today. What will happen if Mother finds out?"

Zhu Baiwei has always known how much her elder sister respected her mother, and she was afraid that she would cause unpleasantness between her elder sister and her mother.

"It's okay. You are the legitimate masters of my Hou Mansion after all. If you let a servant get to the top, it will bring shame to my Hou Mansion!" Zhu Qing'an taught them a lesson.

"We understand!" the two said in unison. No matter what caused the eldest sister to change, such an eldest sister made them, siblings, happier.

As soon as the brother and sister left, someone from Jingyuan came to invite them.

"Princess, I'm afraid that the lady knows that you beat Aunt Banxia, ​​you..." Wangshu said with some concern.

Zhu Qing'an knew what Wangshu was worried about. She had been raised in the palace since she was a child. Her aunt treated her very well, but she longed for maternal love in her heart. Whenever she returned home, she would stay by her mother's side, serve her carefully, and send any good things she got to Jingyuan.

Unfortunately, no matter how much she did, her mother was always indifferent to her.

In her previous life, Zhu Qing'an tried so hard for so many years, but her mother never showed any warmth to her. Even after the Hou family fell, her mother left with her dowry without saying a word. She never asked about the Hou family and never wanted to help her. The maternal love that she prayed for ultimately made Zhu Qing'an feel cold.

In this life, she will never again ask for the motherly love that she never had.

"Fuguang, Wangshu, I was sick last night, but it seemed like I had lived a lifetime. Some things that I couldn't understand before now seem to have been relieved!" Zhu Qing'an had a calm expression, with curved corners of her eyes. She was obviously a young girl, but her whole body exuded a sense of sadness and loneliness.

For some reason, Wangshu and Fuguang looked at Zhu Qing'an in front of them and felt that she was so far away and so distressed.

"It's good that Princess can figure it out. As long as you are happy, anything is fine!" Wangshu knelt in front of Zhu Qing'an and couldn't help but comfort her.
