Mrs. Huo saw that everyone was nervous because of Xu Junjun's words, so she quickly pressed Xu Junjun's hand and scolded with a smile:

"Grandma's health isn't that bad. Why are you scaring them, girl?"

Xu Junjun held onto Madam Huo's withered hand, her eyes filled with worry.

"You also said that you clearly felt unwell but didn't tell us. Did you really want to scare us to death?

When my parents come back, I will go to them and complain about you.

Let’s see if you dare not take care of your body next time.”

No matter how powerful Mrs. Huo is, she is just an ordinary old woman in her sixties.

In addition, he suffered from severe poisoning when he was young, which damaged his body. Any serious illness could cause him to die.

In a place without any medical equipment or emergency medicine, Xu Junjun did not dare to be careless at all.

Xu Junjun accompanied Madam Huo to finish her meal. After Nanny Li brought the medicine to her room, she watched Madam Huo drink it herself and then urged her to go to bed and rest.

Mrs. Huo couldn't persuade her, so she had to give her a few instructions and turned around to wash up and go to bed.

After Mrs. Huo fell asleep, Xu Junjun gestured to Nanny Li, and the two of them tiptoed out.

After leaving the room, Xu Junjun took out a porcelain bottle and handed it to Li Ma, whispering:

"Mammy, Grandmother has been very mentally drained these past few days. This is a bad omen. We need to keep an eye on her.

Whenever my grandmother had symptoms of chest tightness and shortness of breath, she would immediately send someone to find me.

This is the heart-protecting pill I made. Let your grandmother take one pill before meals every day for seven days.

After seven days, I will adjust the dosage as appropriate."

Xu Junjun's face was filled with concern. Li Ma's heart warmed and she bowed respectfully:

"Thank you, Madam. When the old lady wakes up, I will definitely pass on your message."

Nanny Li was an elderly woman who served Mrs. Huo. Xu Junjun never put on airs in front of her. After helping Nanny Li up, Xu Junjun left the yard and went to the front yard to arrange other matters.

The Huo Mansion had just experienced a catastrophe last night, and many of the flowers, trees, and carved pillars in the mansion were damaged.

These are all hard-earned money, and Xu Junjun feels painful just thinking about it.

Now, she really wanted to drag the rebellious queen and her party in front of her and give them a slap in the face.

If you want to rebel, just rebel. Why hurt people and property?

If you have the ability, why not control the old emperor and force him to write an abdication edict? There is no point in killing these officials!

When one Huo family dies, another one will pop up.

Aren’t the Queen and the others just looking for trouble?

As she walked along, Xu Junjun cursed in anger at the broken and collapsed flowers, plants, and walls all over the mansion.

After scolding him harshly and feeling relieved, Xu Junjun ordered Chunlan to call all the managers in the mansion to the study to arrange matters.

……

Three hours after Xiao Tong left, Jiang Wumei woke up from hunger.

Opening her eyes, Jiang Wumei looked at the bright and unfamiliar room and the thick night outside the window. She was dazed and realized where she was.

Recalling the ridiculous two hours before bedtime, Jiang Wumei moved her throat, which was dry and hoarse from crying, and suddenly felt a burning discomfort. She directed the outside:

"Qingzhi, pour me a cup of warm water."

Qingzhi has been waiting by the side.

Hearing the hoarse voice of his master, he hurriedly poured a glass of warm water and went forward to serve Jiang Wumei.

After drinking the water, Jiang Wumei finally felt better. She looked out the window at the dark night and frowned:

"What time is it?"

"My Lady, it's already one o'clock.

You haven't had any soup for a day. What do you want to eat? I'll tell you."

Jiang Wumei pressed her eyebrows, glanced at the red marks on her exposed skin, and said:

"Just ask them to prepare something light and tasty."

That beast Xiao Tong had been holding her down for two whole ridiculous hours, and now her waist was sore.

Next time, he can't be absent for so long, otherwise she will be tortured to death.

"Okay, Madam, please wait a moment. I will go and give you the instructions right away."

Qingzhi didn't dare to delay and immediately went outside the door to pass on the message. After quickly explaining his master's taste preferences, he immediately returned to help Jiang Wumei get up.

After moving her tired hands and feet, Jiang Wumei felt so hungry that she could not see anything. She sat down on the couch and felt pain in her waist again.

Jiang Wumei let Qingzhi massage her waist, and her aching waist finally felt better.

"My Lady, the secret guards we sent to the Huo Mansion today have returned with a report that Madam Huo is safe and sound.

He also said that although the Huo family had experienced a dangerous battle last night, at least they escaped with no harm and everyone in the family was safe.

However, General Huo and Major General Huo went into the palace to protect the emperor and did not return for a day.

The General's wife also left the house early in the morning, and now only the old lady Huo and the young lady are left to run the Huo Mansion."

Jiang Wumei leaned on the couch, humming lazily.

Yes, Madam Huo is a powerful figure. With her protecting Junjun, Junjun will definitely be safe.

It's chaos if she cares.

“I understand.

After returning today, did Your Highness say anything to Zhao Qi?"

The palace must have been full of dangers last night, but she didn't find any scars when she was intimate with Xiao Tong just now.

Could it be that Xiao Tong suppressed Xiao Yi and the Queen's attempt to abdicate without even raising his sword?

His brain power is incredible!

He is so wise and brave, how can she escape in the future?

Thinking of this, Jiang Wumei felt more and more irritated as her back ached.

Dealing with smart people is troublesome.

"Your Highness came to your room after returning home. I didn't see Your Highness talking to Lord Zhao."

After hesitating for a moment, Qingzhi said honestly:

"However, when Your Majesty was briefly conscious at 3 p.m., Lord Zhao came to report to Your Highness.

But...when I heard that you and His Highness were busy, I and your servants waited outside the door and did not disturb you.

He waited until His Highness had bathed and changed his clothes before leaving with His Highness. I have no idea what happened after that."

Jiang Wumei's old face turned red, and she blamed Xiao Tong for being overheard in her live sex scene.

Grinding her teeth, Jiang Wumei said angrily:

"If this happens again in the future, drive Zhao Qi away!

No one except you should come near the bedroom."

Qingzhi knew that his master was shy and didn't like to expose what happened in the bedroom to the public, so he agreed immediately.

"Yes, concubine.

I've made note of it."

The chef in this house has similar skills to the chef in the Prince's Mansion.

They seemed to have a very precise grasp of Jiang Wumei's taste, and the taste of the dishes they served was almost the same as those in the Prince's Mansion.

Jiang Wumei had been hungry the entire day, and she ate every dish before putting down her chopsticks and ordering everyone to leave.

For the next three or four days, Jiang Wumei stayed in this mansion.

Xiao Tong would come back every day to spend time with her.

Fortunately, Xiao Tong was very restrained in the next few days and did not make Jiang Wumei uncomfortable. Jiang Wumei then responded to him and enjoyed the man's perfect body.

On the fifth day, after Jiang Wumei toured the entire mansion, Xiao Tong finally asked Zhao Qi to escort her back to the Prince's Mansion.

Only after returning this time did Jiang Wumei realize how much damage the rebels' siege that night had caused to the Prince's Mansion.

The plaque at the gate and the eaves on both sides show signs of repair.

After entering the house, the floor tiles were replaced because the blood stains were difficult to remove.

Not to mention the flowers and plants in the corridor near the gate, all of which looked brand new, making Jiang Wumei feel very unfamiliar.

Walking all the way back to the bedroom, looking at the brand new garden scenery, and meeting the housekeeper, Jiang Wumei finally understood what Xiao Tong had been busy with these days. She hurriedly took out the house's account book to look at the direct losses.

But before she could figure out the financial situation of the Prince's Mansion, a shocking piece of bad news spread from the palace to every corner of the capital.
