Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?
Chapter 554 The New Concubine?
Sun Dashan knew very well how much Xiang Hongbo valued his nephew.
He had a son late in life, and the Xiang family only had this one heir. He just couldn't believe that Xiang Hongbo could bear to let his nephew die along with him!
When Xiang Hongbo saw that Sun Dashan dared to threaten him, his face turned several shades darker. This damned scoundrel is utterly shameless!
However, these words were no problem at all for Chu Junting, who had excellent hearing; he heard them clearly.
When Chu Junting looked away, he met Song Ruozhen's knowing gaze. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. "You heard me?"
Song Ruozhen nodded slightly. Since her breakthrough, she had become very sharp-witted and had heard everything clearly.
Only at this moment did she understand what her master meant when he said that once she broke through, it would be like heaven and earth.
My whole feeling is completely different from before. My body feels lighter and my senses are sharper. I can even see through some trivial matters that used to require divination in an instant.
Xiangfu.
Sun Miao'er, holding her son, patted his slightly dirty trouser legs, glanced coldly at the twelve-year-old girl beside her, and spoke arrogantly:
"What are you standing there for? Get your hands on him!"
Seeing this, the seventh concubine couldn't help but say, "Sun Miao'er, don't go too far. This is a young lady, and you are just a concubine. How can you hit the young lady of the manor?"
"She's just a little girl, so what if I hit her? It's all because the First Madam's womb is useless, giving birth to several worthless girls."
"You've been in the manor for so long, surely you know how much the master values the young master?"
Sun Miao'er scoffed coldly, displaying her superiority, "She caused the young master to fall just now, shouldn't she be punished and beaten?"
"Young master tripped and fell by accident while walking over. It just so happened that Miss was passing by. How can you blame Miss for this?"
The seventh concubine frowned, looking at the third young lady's bewildered appearance, and couldn't help but feel anxious.
Sun Miao'er is clearly deliberately causing trouble to show off her special status in the mansion. She's always picking fights. She's already sent someone to inform the First Madam, but the First Madam hasn't arrived yet!
"I think you're just jealous that I had a son, and you're deliberately going against me, aren't you?"
Sun Miao'er was displeased and said, "Since you like protecting her so much, then you should take the punishment for her! Do it, beat her hard!"
"Snapped!"
The old woman slapped the seventh concubine across the face.
"It must be you, you shameless woman, who can't stand seeing Ninth Concubine and the young master getting along. You deliberately instigated Third Miss to trip up the young master, and since you can't get pregnant yourself, you resort to underhanded tricks!"
"Seventh Aunt!"
When the Third Sister saw that the Seventh Aunt had been slapped because of her, she quickly said, "He fell down on his own, it has nothing to do with me, why did you hit the Seventh Aunt?"
"Tsk tsk, you're even defending them now. I knew you guys were in cahoots!"
Sun Miao'er, holding her son with disdain in her eyes, was about to speak when she suddenly saw Xiang Hongbo walking behind her. Her heart leaped with joy, and she said sweetly, "Master, you're back!"
She glared at the two of them fiercely, "The master is back. Let's see how you'll keep up the act later!"
Upon hearing that her father had returned, the third daughter was startled, and a look of fear flashed across her face.
Last time, she was wrongly accused by Ninth Aunt of hitting her younger brother, and her father punished her by making her kneel in the ancestral hall for three days. Today, she will probably be punished again.
"Master, the Third Miss is really too wicked. I don't know if it was taught by the First Madam, but she deliberately caused Yuan'er to fall. I think she must be taught a lesson!"
Sun Miao'er greeted them with a smug look on her face, but as she got closer, she suddenly realized that besides the master and her brother, there were several unfamiliar faces around them.
Most importantly, these people looked to be either rich or noble, and were by no means ordinary people. In particular, the three young masters were all incredibly handsome; she had never seen such good-looking young men before.
However, there were three young ladies with him. Could it be that the master has taken in new concubines?
"Sir, have you found a new girl again?"
As soon as she said this, Sun Miao'er was slapped.
"Snapped!"
Xiang Hongbo was already seething with anger and nowhere to vent it. When he returned, he saw Sun Miao'er's smug look. Not to mention, such words were extremely disrespectful!
In the short time he had figured it out, there were two princes, two princesses, and a princess and the princesses' older brother. They couldn't afford to offend any of them!
That idiot Sun Miao'er dared to say such a thing! She's going to kill them all!
Song Ruozhen and the others already disliked Sun Miao'er's arrogant and domineering manner. When they heard that they mistakenly thought they were new concubines that Xiang Hongbo had found, they all felt unlucky.
"What kind of look is that woman giving me?!" Chu Muyao was speechless.
Song Ruozhen shook her head, "If she had good eyesight, she wouldn't have become Xiang Hongbo's concubine."
Qu Jiaojiao: "That makes sense!"
"Sir, how dare you hit me?"
Sun Miao'er looked incredulous; she had only wanted to teach the Third Miss a lesson.
This kind of thing has happened before, and the master has never hit her!
"Where is the warehouse? Lead the way."
Chu Junting glanced at Sun Dashan, too lazy to waste any more time on this.
"Your Highness, it's over there!"
Sun Dashan gave Sun Miao'er a wink. After thinking it over, he realized that there was only one way to save his life: have his sister play the victim.
As long as the prince and his men believe that their sister was forcibly taken back by Xiang Hongbo, then they will have a chance!
Sun Miao'er's eyes changed when she heard the words "Your Highness".
Your Majesty!
They never expected to receive such a distinguished guest in their mansion. Suddenly, they understood why the master had slapped her. She had mistakenly thought that the woman beside the prince was there to become the master's concubine.
Looking at her husband's pale face and her younger brother's eyes, she suddenly understood something. This was... a terrible disaster was about to befall them?
When Song Ruozhen and her party arrived at the warehouse, they saw all sorts of treasures on display, and the most eye-catching gold and silver, and knew how much wealth Xiang Hongbo had plundered from the people over the years.
"A mere prefect, receiving a salary from the imperial court, yet your treasury is overflowing with gold and silver. I never imagined that Yangzhou would produce such a corrupt official as you!"
Chu Junting's voice sharpened, and his eyes, as black as holes, flashed with a chilling coldness. "With so much gold and silver plundered, how many people must have suffered?"
The people of Yangzhou had grievances but could not voice them. The official, who was supposed to be the local magistrate, tolerated the local bullies and even allowed them to work for him.
"Such behavior deserves more than just stripping you of your official hat; confiscating your property and exterminating your entire family!"
Xiang Hongbo knelt down in fear. "Your Highness, I know I was wrong. I really know I was wrong. Please give me a chance to reform!"
"Yunyang, arrest him and throw him in jail! Imprison everyone in the manor!"
Chu Junting didn't even bother to look at him. He picked up a pen and paper from nearby and wrote down everything about Yangzhou City, then ordered someone to send it back to the capital immediately.
"Your Highness, I deserve to die, but my child is innocent. I beg Your Highness to spare my child's life!"
Having witnessed everything, Sun Miao'er immediately knelt down and said, "Your Highness, I was forcibly abducted by the Prefect. None of this has anything to do with me or my child!"
