"Princess, the lady asked me to invite you over!" The maid's voice outside the house was respectful. It must be about Aunt Banxia, ​​which made the people serving in Jingyuan feel scared.

Zhu Qingan stood up. Could it be that her dear mother really didn't know that she was sick last night? She hadn't even said a word of concern, but instead came to embarrass herself.

I was confused in the past and always longed for maternal love.

After walking for a while, Zhu Qing'an realized that she had a high fever last night, her forehead was covered with sweat, and her usually rosy lips were a little pale.

"Princess..." Fu Guang supported Zhu Qing'an.

Zhu Qing'an shook his head slightly. The moment he stepped into Jingyuan seemed like a lifetime ago.

Jingyuan is the courtyard of Zhu Qingan's mother. Lush flowers and trees grow over the wall, and the faint fragrance of flowers wafts in the air. The colors are elegant, just like in a painting.

"A daughter greets her mother!" Zhu Qing'an walked into the room and bowed slightly.

But no words came from above to ask her to stand up. Zhu Qing'an raised her eyes and saw her mother sitting in the main seat, and Aunt Banxia with a red and swollen cheek beside her mother.

Zhu Qing'an's mother had fair skin and beautiful features. Her forehead was adorned with a gold-studded flower ornament. She wore a lake blue long dress and looked very charming.

Zhu Qing'an inherited more of her mother's appearance, and she also knew her mother's beauty. Over the years, no matter how cold her mother was to her father, her father always cared for her as much as ever.

She used to not understand and thought that her father must have done something to displease her mother, which was why her mother treated him and her so coldly. Later, she found out that neither she nor her father had done anything wrong. It was her mother who never loved her or her father.

Madam Shui Shiyu lifted her eyelids and sized up her daughter, sneerin', "Your Highness is so arrogant! You even dared to hit my aunt! You've really learned your father's ways!"

Zhu Qingan felt numb after listening to her mother's words. She had heard too many slanderous words about her father from her mother. It seemed that no matter what she did, her mother was always dissatisfied and would always blame her father.

"Mother misunderstood!"

"Misunderstanding? Didn't someone close to you slap Banxia in the face?" The Marquis's wife turned her gaze towards Fu Guang, who was waiting outside the house. "Today, I will let your maidservant slap you fifty times!"

Fu Guang stood outside the house with an unchanged expression, but Wangshu gritted his teeth.

Aunt Banxia smiled and glanced at Zhu Qing'an with a smug look. So what if she was a princess? In front of the lady, she had to obey discipline.

"I asked Fu Guang to hit her. Aunt Banxia committed the crime of insubordination, but I only gave her two slaps. I let her off lightly for mother's sake! Doesn't mother know that Aunt Banxia was disrespectful to the second young lady and the third young master?" Zhu Qing'an stood up straight without giving in at all.

"How dare you talk to me like that?" The Marquis's wife looked at Zhu Qing'an's attitude in disbelief.

Although her daughter did not grow up by her side, she would see her every two or three days. Every time, her daughter was respectful and obedient to everything she said. Even if she beat or scolded her, she would not complain at all.

"Madam, you have seen it too. The princess is now favoring Concubine Qu!" Aunt Banxia added fuel to the fire.

The Marquis's wife was furious when these words came out. She slammed the table and said, "You are so kind, such a good daughter of mine. You are actually arguing with bastards! I can teach a servant like you a lesson. Come on, slap your face!"
