Reincarnated as the Abandoned Daughter of a Marquis's Mansion: I Take Control of My Life

Sitting in the carriage, Su Yinyin listened to her fifth brother's report. Su Yinyin calmly asked, "Fifth brother, what do you think should be done about the people who bullied Bao Bao?"

"Miss, just kill them already, that would be quick and decisive," the fifth brother said as he drove the carriage.

"That won't do. It's too easy for her; it'll be too lenient." Su Yinyin's lips curled into a cruel smile. "We have to torture her slowly, make her wish she were dead... Let's carve her face and see how she'll ever think about men again."

Damn it, I understand it's understandable that she's angry because she can't get the man she wants, but if she dares to take it out on my son, then she's really wrong.

The fifth brother responded, inwardly marveling at how kind his young lady was; it was just a face scratch.

"Fifth brother, give the order: I want her...!"

Princess Yong'an never expected that her good intentions would lead her to the heir of the Regent's Palace.

When the emperor issued an edict to bestow titles upon the regent's wife and heir, the regent did not resist. Instead, he quickly had the names of the wife and heir engraved in the royal jade tablet.

The regent acted as if he was afraid the queen would change her mind.

Everyone was curious about the identities of the Queen and the Crown Prince. They all tried their best to curry favor with the Queen, but the Regent's secrecy was too tight.

The Regent is a figure whom my elder brother and I greatly admire and respect.

And just now, the Regent and the Crown Prince thanked me in front of so many people.

Princess Yong'an, lost in thought about the day's events, returned to the palace and went straight to her own courtyard, paying no attention to anything else.

Seeing that the princess didn't even glance at her, Su Yinhan could only suppress her anger and, with her maid, blocked the princess's path. "Where are you going, sister?" Su Yinhan asked with a smile.

Princess Yong'an looked at her coldly, "What? You dare to block my way?"

"Please don't be offended, sister. I just have some things to ask you," Su Yinhan said, feigning weakness.

"Speak quickly if you have something to say!" Princess Yong'an said impatiently.

"Sister, does the Prince...do he not like you?" Su Yinhan cried. "It's been quite a while since you married into the Prince's mansion, and there's never been any news of you being pregnant...!"

"Hmph!" Princess Yong'an sneered, "Are you questioning me? What does it matter to you whether the Prince likes me or not? Even if the Prince doesn't like me, I am still a princess. If you want to surpass me, you'll have to wait until your next life."

"And you, Consort Su, have followed the Prince for so many years, and you haven't even laid a single egg." The Princess emphasized the words "so many years."

The princess raised her hand and pointed at Su Yinhan's face, saying, "Consort Su, you should take a good look in the mirror. Your face is full of wrinkles that could trap flies. Why don't you stay in your own nest? Why do you have to come out and scare people?"

"You, you, you!" Su Yinhan was so angry that she had originally wanted to say something to provoke her, but she ended up getting angry herself.

Su Yinhan told herself, "Endure it, endure it. In two more days, when I see the divine healer and heals my face, he will be at my service again. At that time, I will make you wish you were dead. Now, I'll collect the interest."

Su Yinhan quickly composed herself, then sobbed again, saying, "I know I was wrong, I shouldn't have made you angry, but you shouldn't have taken your anger out on my maid."

“I don’t understand what you mean. When did I ever vent my anger on your maid?” Princess Yong’an said.

“Sister, yesterday my maid accidentally bumped into you, and you ordered her to be beaten twenty times. She still can’t get out of bed.” Su Yinhan became more and more aggrieved as she spoke, and tears rolled down her cheeks like broken beads.

Princess Yong'an was startled upon hearing this. She was always careful in her actions and would never punish a servant without reason; there must be something fishy going on.

She looked sharply at Su Yinhan and said, "I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly." After saying that, she told her maid to go and find the head matron.

Before the head maid arrived, Princess Yong'an tried hard to recall what had happened yesterday.

I vaguely remember that Consort Su's maidservant brought me pastries. I didn't like Consort Su to begin with, and the two of them didn't get along. Who knows if Consort Su put something harmful in the pastries?

So she ordered them to be driven away immediately. Moreover, she instructed Consort Su and her entourage not to step into her courtyard without her permission.

Why did she say "instruct" like that? Because Su Yinhan doesn't understand basic manners. She goes to other people's homes as if they were her own, coming and going as she pleases.

I didn't even see her maid, so where did this supposed offense come from...! Such a childish frame-up, and you dare to even bring it up.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, you must do me justice!" Su Yinhan turned and ran towards Prince Yong'an. Her face was covered in tears as she looked at the prince, but she forgot that now, no matter how beautifully she dressed or how good her figure was, the wrinkles on her face could trap a mosquito.

When the prince saw Su Yinhan's tearful face and wrinkled features, he wanted to leave.

However, for the sake of their future plans, they had no choice but to face it head-on.

"What kind of behavior is this, crying and sobbing?" Prince Yong'an gently shook off Su Yinhan's hand.

Seeing the displeasure on the prince's face, Su Yinhan quickly took out her handkerchief and wiped away her tears.

"Your Highness, please do justice for me. I meant well and sent my personal maid to deliver pastries to my sister, but she ordered her servants to beat her up."

"Sister, you've overstepped your bounds! Where do you put my dignity? I am, after all, the legitimate daughter of a marquis's family. Am I not as well-mannered as you? Can't you even discipline your own maids?"

Prince Yong'an pondered for a moment, then asked with a headache, "Your Highness, is this true?"

After bowing to the prince, Princess Yong'an said slowly, "Your Highness, I do not know."

Seeing that the princess claimed ignorance, Su Yinhan said anxiously, "How could you not know, sister? My maidservant delivered pastries to you in broad daylight. So many people saw it along the way. Just ask a few of them, and they'll know the answer. Are you trying to renege on your promise, sister?"

Seeing that Su Yinhan was speaking aggressively, the princess was not in a hurry. "Your Highness, I have already sent someone to fetch the head maid of my courtyard. You will know soon."

The princess glanced at the servants around her and continued, "Your Highness, these are not major issues, but the master of the palace is here...! It's not a good look. Should we move to another place?"

The prince glanced at the large group of servants and thought about it. "Hmm, what the princess says is quite right. Let's go."

The prince and his entourage arrived at the princess's courtyard.

Looking at the courtyard, Su Yinhan felt even angrier. This courtyard originally belonged to her, but before she could even ascend to the throne of princess, the emperor had already bestowed a marriage upon the prince.

Her beautiful dream was shattered, but it doesn't matter. The position of princess will be her sooner or later, just because she is the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Yongyi's family, and the only legitimate daughter at that.

If Su Yinyin hadn't become pregnant out of wedlock, ruining the reputation of the Marquis's mansion and implicating her, she wouldn't have ended up as a concubine.

As the legitimate daughter of a marquis, she is qualified to become the crown princess in the future.

I should have listened to my mother and killed Su Yinyin directly. Instead of framing her for being pregnant out of wedlock, I wouldn't have ended up in a subservient position. Unfortunately, there's no going back.
