After traveling through time, I was raised by a little brat

The group finally arrived at their destination—a courtyard with five entrances. As soon as they entered, they were greeted by the well-arranged rockery, the strange stones, and the exquisite decorations, which exuded a sense of grandeur and magnificence.

Tang Wenshu couldn't help but ask curiously, "Brother, how did you manage to afford such a luxurious house? Our monthly allowances are usually the same. When did you save up all this money?"

Tang Qi smiled slightly and explained, "My mother gave this to me. She said it was my grandmother's house. She bought it a few years ago and asked me to send someone to take good care of it."

Hearing this, Tang Wenshu felt a surge of emotion. Her grandmother's family had long since fallen on hard times, and she hadn't expected to even save the house. She secretly speculated that perhaps seeing these old things had brought back memories for her mother, prompting her to leave the house to her eldest brother for safekeeping.

"Princess, what do you think? Are you satisfied?" Tang Qi asked Zhu Jiahui with a smile, and at the same time took everyone to visit the house.

Zhu Jiahui nodded and said softly, "It's a nice place." At this time, they walked to the junction of the yard and the next yard, and suddenly heard a noisy sound coming from next door. It seemed that many people were walking quickly, as if something big had happened.

A few people did not care about this little episode and went outside the city to bring the rest of the Huimin Navy into the house to settle down.

The next morning, inside the palace, in the court, after the ministers had paid their respects, the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel stepped forward and said, "I have something to report: Princess Fuhui is abusing her power and bullying. Yesterday, she assaulted my grandson's wife in the street, nearly causing her to miscarry. A prince is subject to the same punishment as a commoner, and she's acting lawlessly since becoming a Pacifier. Your Majesty, how can a woman be an official?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the court was in an uproar, and everyone was talking about it. Zhu Jiahui stood in the corner of the court, feeling a little surprised and helpless. She had never expected that she would be reported on her first day in court. What surprised her even more was that Liu Yixin was actually pregnant! She was the same age as her, and she hadn't even reached the age of marriage yet, and she had consummated her marriage so quickly. Thinking of this, Zhu Jiahui couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied with the Chen family, thinking that the Chen family was not a good family.

Zhu Jiahui was about to speak when she suddenly remembered what happened on the Yangzhou Pirate Island. When two parties quarrel, they should talk about you, not me. Don't fall into the trap of self-proof. Other people's accusations require him to produce evidence. If he can't produce evidence, it is slander.

So, she puffed out her chest and shouted, "Why do you say I beat him? Do you have any evidence? I tell you, I can also say it was you who beat him! Everyone knows that there is a deep hatred between your new daughter-in-law and your granddaughter-in-law. This is known to the whole city!"

At this moment, the people around began to talk. One of the censors, speaking in a low voice, deliberately letting the others hear, said, "Yes, yes, when Lord Chen's granddaughter-in-law offered tea to the elder, that person was truly merciless and directly poured the tea on her. This incident caused a lot of uproar, and even the old lady of the Liu family came to make a scene." These censors all loved gossip. If they were not good at discovering the weaknesses of officials and impeaching them in letters, how could they have a foothold in the officialdom?

"You, you, I..." Lord Chen was furious. He covered his chest and seemed to have thought of something. "You want evidence? My grandson and his granddaughter-in-law were shopping together. He is the witness."

"Lord Chen is old and incompetent. His grandson and granddaughter-in-law are family. How can they testify?" someone else said.

Lord Chen was so angry that his face turned red, but he could not refute.

At this time, the emperor finally spoke: "This matter ends here." This made Lord Chen feel as if he had been pardoned. He quickly retreated and stood back to his seat with his body hunched.

Then, the eunuch in charge of the seal shouted, "If you have anything to say, please report it. If not, please dismiss the court."

Ministers began to report on various matters one after another. Princess Zhu Jiahui, as the appeasement envoy, stood at the end and began to doze off while listening.

She didn't sleep well last night and was now very sleepy, her head dozing off little by little.

It was not until the court was dismissed and an official congratulated her that she came to her senses.

In the morning, Dai Qiuhua was already waiting at the palace gate, ready to welcome Zhu Jiahui back to the palace. After returning home and having breakfast, Zhu Jiahui did not go to the government office again, but instead leisurely enjoyed the scenery in the courtyard. Just then, a loud noise suddenly came from the next courtyard.

"A snapping sound pierced through the courtyard wall. 'You vicious woman, you've caused me to lose face in the court,'" Chen Tingjian shouted, accompanied by the sound of a whip lashing against flesh. Zhu Jiahui couldn't help but frown, sighing inwardly. She knew Ma Yiqing hadn't had a good life in the Liu Mansion before, and she hadn't expected her to be even more miserable after marrying.

At this time, Zhu Jiahui hooked her fingers and asked Dai Qiuhua to come over, then whispered: "Like this, like this... Okay, go ahead." Then, Dai Qiuhua turned and left, his steps seemed a little hurried.

Then, a burst of rapid footsteps could be heard, and Dai Qiuhua shouted as she ran, "Princess Fuhui! Princess Fuhui! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince invites you to discuss something."

However, just as Dai Qiuhua's voice was heard, the whipping sound next door stopped abruptly, leaving only faint sobs echoing in the air.

Meanwhile, Master Chen Tingjian also noticed something unusual going on in the courtyard next door. He summoned his servants and asked, "When did someone start living next door? Who is the owner?" The servants shook their heads, saying they had no idea. Master Chen Tingjian's face darkened, realizing he might have overlooked something important.

After some inquiries from his servants, Master Chen learned that the person living next door was none other than Princess Fuhui, who had humiliated her at court that morning. Chen Tingjian's face turned livid with rage, and without a word, he dragged Ma Yiqing straight to the bedroom. Soon, screams erupted from the room, but with the doors and windows closed, the sounds could not reach the outside.

That evening, Zhu Jiahui received an invitation from Ma Yiqing, inviting the princess to her home for tea and snacks the following day. Dai Qiuhua looked at the invitation and asked, "Princess, are you going?" However, Zhu Jiahui unexpectedly replied, "There must be something hateful about pitiful people. We should stay out of it."

According to common sense, given Zhu Jiahui's current status and position, if she were invited, Lord Chen would certainly not dare to do anything excessive to Ma Yiqing again. However, how to repay kindness with kindness? Zhu Jiahui did not want to easily forgive Ma Yiqing's previous actions. After all, she had suffered many grievances and injustices because of Ma Yiqing and others.
