After Princess Mingxia finished speaking, the room fell silent.

When Madam Han was subdued, her servants tried to use their numbers to rescue her.

Han Cuiyin's casual glance was enough to scare them all away.

That dark-faced girl really knows how to kill.

If the old lady really passes away, the master will have to observe a period of mourning, and none of the servants will have an easy time.

With this concern, these people could only let Han Cuiyin control the old lady.

Princess Mingxia came in and wanted to punish Han Cuiyin, but no one thought she could succeed.

The princess is of noble status, but that's only true for those who value status.

Han Cuiyin is a person who cannot be judged by common sense.

In her eyes, power and morality seemed to mean nothing.

Some of the servants around Madam Han were bought by Han Zhen from outside at high prices, because he was afraid that his old mother from the countryside would be too muddle-headed and fall into someone's trap.

Many of these servants had worked as slaves in the homes of the powerful and wealthy; when their masters fell from grace, they were sold off.

Princess Mingxia was aware of Han Zhen's concerns. Since Old Madam Han was sensible, she was happy to be a hands-off manager and not have to worry about her mother-in-law's muddle-headed affairs.

"Yes, Mingxia, punish her!" Hearing Princess Mingxia's voice, Old Madam Han seemed to see a savior. "She's unfilial, she beat her grandmother, and had an affair..."

Regardless of whether it was true or not, the old lady pinned all the blame on Han Cuiyin.

The words "meeting with a man outside the home" made Han Cuiyin feel dizzy.

Even though she knew something was wrong, she was completely clueless.

How could those four words affect her to this extent?

Han Cuiyin felt a little dizzy, and many images seemed to flash before her eyes.

"Miss~" Granny Gao noticed something was wrong and helped the girl up.

Princess Mingxia didn't say much after she came in.

Seeing the pitiful state of Old Madam Han, he could hardly contain his pleasure.

That old hag always threatens people with what happened back then. If the conditions she's asking aren't too unreasonable, she would have gotten rid of them long ago.

“Cuiyin, you call yourself a guest. We elders pity you, so we'll let you be.”

"But when you are a guest in someone else's house, there is no reason for you to beat up the elders in the house."

“You weren’t born from my womb. Since I’m the head of the household, I won’t mistreat you. Your half-sisters are living just fine.”

“You have gone too far today. If I do not punish you, your father will probably say that I have acted unfairly when he returns.”

"The servants in the manor all know that I am the kindest person. Today, you go to the Buddhist hall to pick beans. You can come out whenever you finish picking them."

Princess Mingxia finished speaking quickly, then waved to the two people beside her, "Take Cuiyin to the Buddhist hall, and have Granny Wang look after her."

These two were unfamiliar faces; it was the first time the Han family had seen them.

One of them had delicate features, while the other had an ordinary appearance, but both exuded a powerful aura.

Judging from their appearance alone, the two were no ordinary people.

Granny Gao shielded Han Cuiyin behind her, saying, "What are you doing? The young lady is also from the Han family—"

Unfortunately, before she could finish speaking, one of the men, who had a delicate appearance, shoved her, and Granny Gao flew out and crashed into the wall.

Granny Chu shook her head vigorously, trying to clear her mind. Seeing this, Gao Xiaolan quickly supported her, saying, "Godmother, be careful!"

“Princess Mingxia,” Granny Chu walked shakily to Princess Mingxia and looked directly into her eyes, “I wonder if this token can exempt you from punishment?”

The token belonged to the residence of Grand Princess Jinghe, so Princess Mingxia naturally recognized it.

"The princess is meddling in the domestic affairs of a high-ranking official? Heh~ The princess hasn't attended court for many years, she must have forgotten the rules of the court!"

Princess Mingxia glanced at it briefly before looking away, her chin slightly raised and her gaze downwards.

Granny Chu had not expected things to turn out this way.

Could it be that Xu Mingxia thought she had lost her standing in front of the princess because she had been kicked out?

The two sisters stepped forward to restrain Han Cuiyin.

"Granny, step back, don't hurt yourself anymore." Han Cuiyin pinched her head hard a few times. "Such a grand display today, it's just as Madam Han wanted."

She had Princess Mingxia summoned, intending to deal with her as well, but she hadn't expected her to have health problems.

The two people beside Princess Mingxia had never appeared in her previous life.

The two men exuded a murderous aura and were clearly not to be trifled with.

Han Cuiyin miscalculated and can only react to whatever comes her way.

Granny Chu tried to block Han Cuiyin's way, saying, "Miss, if you go to the Duke of Dingguo's mansion, the young master will definitely not ignore you."

Princess Mingxia showed no fear when the name of the Duke of Dingguo's heir was mentioned.

"You don't know, do you? My second brother has won a great victory at the border. No matter what I do, nothing will happen to me."

Princess Mingxia's ambiguous smile pierced Han Cuiyin's eyes.

In her past life, there was no one kind in the Xu Prince's mansion, regardless of gender, who caused her a lot of trouble.

Especially that second young master Xu, a complete wastrel, who would take any pretty girl he saw back to the palace.

If it weren't for his good father, he would have been imprisoned countless times.

Any girl with even a modicum of beauty would avoid him when they met at the banquet.

Han Cuiyin was exceptionally beautiful. Even though Han Yueshi had her maids style her hair in an unflattering way to make her face look ugly, her appearance still stood out.

What's even more outrageous is that Han Yueshi deliberately let Xu Ershao see her face.

Taking advantage of the banquet held at the Han residence, Xu Ershao was naturally among those invited.

Han Yueshi gave him a suggestion: he should force himself on her, and once they had physical intimacy, he could carry her back to the backyard.

If it weren't for a twist of fate, Han Runji would have been in her room, and the two of them would have had an affair, and she would have been the one to suffer that day.

Madam Han doted on Han Runji the most, so naturally she wanted to avenge her most precious granddaughter after such an incident.

She was locked in the Buddhist hall to collect Buddhist beans, but the difference was that the person in charge was Granny Zhao.

The Buddhist hall was cold and damp. She knelt on the ground picking up beans, her knees red and swollen.

Granny Zhao was adept at tormenting people. She hadn't eaten or drunk anything for three days, and if anyone was even a little slow, her whip would come flying.

When Han Zhen learned of this and rescued her, she had already fainted.

As a result, she suffered from abdominal pain in her previous life, and her legs would ache terribly on cloudy days.

With both old and new grudges combined, Han Cuiyin became even more reckless.

There are many more dangerous situations in the world of immortals than they are now, and she is the one who survives each time.

Han Cuiyin clenched her fists and struck first.

The two sisters were stunned, not expecting this situation.

Even without her spiritual power, Han Cuiyin's fists and feet were still formidable.

With both fists flying, he aimed straight for the sisters' faces.

Unfortunately, she still had a fighting chance against those in brocade robes.

The two sisters worked together seamlessly, each twisting one of her hands to subdue Han Cuiyin, and then pressing her pressure points. "Princess, let's take her to the Buddhist hall first."

Princess Mingxia breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in agreement.

"I didn't expect you to be so nothing special. I thought you were so great! All you do is flip tables in front of us. You're nothing special after all!"

When Han Cuiyin was being escorted out the door, she ran into Han Yueshi.

"A good dog doesn't block the way, get out of the way!"

Inside the room, Granny Chu half-closed her eyes as she looked at Princess Mingxia. "So the princess has someone to rely on. No wonder she doesn't take the princess's residence seriously. I'll remember what happened today."

Madam Han has been sent back to Songhe Courtyard, and Princess Mingxia just chuckled and left.

"Godmother, what should we do?" Gao Xiaolan asked after settling Granny Gao down. "Should I go to the Duke of Dingguo's mansion and ask the young master for help?"

"Don't make things worse. People from the princess's residence have already arrived. This matter won't end well."

Han Cuiyin was unaware of what was happening at the princess's residence. When she arrived at the Buddhist hall, she felt a sense of gloom.

Returning to this familiar place, she was no longer the weak girl she once was.
