The sick king's bride to bring him good fortune

Ruan Mozhu and the general watched from the doorway. The Crown Princess seemed to be nowhere to be found inside. Finally, the Minister, no longer afraid, ordered his guards to relentlessly beat the Crown Princess. The Crown Princess felt she was about to collapse. What was happening? Why hadn't the Grand Commander come to her rescue? She was her own person! How could he treat her like this? He didn't help her at all when she was in trouble. When she returned, she would definitely report him to the Crown Prince and make sure he lost his position. Even in this predicament, the Crown Princess was still thinking about how to harm others? Seeing the Crown Princess's discomfiture, Ruan Mozhu couldn't help but find it amusing. Finally, the Crown Princess, exhausted on the ground, said, "Minister, if you dare touch me again, you won't escape when I return." The Crown Princess's harsh words instantly sobered Minister Xiang. He realized he had hurt the Crown Princess and said, "If you dare leave today, I will definitely report this to the Emperor tomorrow. I know there's no point in fighting you to the death. Fine, if you insist, I'll fight to the end. For the greater good, I think it's worth it." The Crown Princess forced a smile. He was still negotiating with her even now. He was just a mere Minister, yet he dared to treat her like this. She would definitely have the Crown Prince teach him a lesson when she returned. But how could she escape now? "So the Crown Princess weakly said, 'Fine, I won't pursue this, but you must release me quickly. That way, I'll pretend nothing happened.'" Even though the Crown Princess had shown weakness, she still spoke to the Minister in a commanding tone. The Minister naturally knew that this matter was settled, so he turned to look at his daughter. She was still lying there quietly, so he said to his guards, "Lift her up, we're going back to the manor." Then a large group of people prepared to leave, and he looked at Ruan Mozhu with gratitude. He then looked at the Grand Commander, who was actually standing in front of Ruan Mozhu, but the Grand Commander hadn't come out. He was naturally a little afraid that the Grand Commander would report to the Emperor. At this moment, Ruan Mozhu looked at him and said... "Don't worry, we're all on your side." The Minister smiled. "Thank you, Your Highness." Ruan Mozhu smiled back and said, "No need to thank me. Bad people should be punished. You can go back to your residence with peace of mind and properly bury your daughter. However, this is a lesson; you must behave well in the future." Ruan Mozhu wasn't going to let this Minister get away with it. She felt that he would definitely take her words to heart. The Minister quickly replied, "Thank you, Your Highness. I will certainly keep it in mind." He then returned to his residence. Ruan Mozhu felt most heartbroken seeing his servants carrying his sister back like that; it looked so pitiful. Ruan Mozhu and the others slowly walked in and found the Crown Princess lying there, looking very weak. Upon seeing the Grand Commander, the Crown Princess quickly said, "You, a mere mortal, why don't you help me up?" Ruan Mozhu then said to him, "Crown Princess, is there anything else you need? Is there anything I can do for you?" Ruan Mozhu wanted to laugh, wanting to see if the Crown Princess would still be willing to order her around at this point. Sure enough, the Crown Princess quickly said, "Seventh Princess, come quickly! My back seems to have hurt. Please come and help me up." Ruan Mozhu smiled again. She hadn't expected the Crown Princess to be so self-satisfied, expecting her to serve her. Didn't she know that Ruan Mozhu had already seen through her act? So Ruan Mozhu said, "Your Highness, today's performance was truly captivating! It left me wanting more, didn't it? I'd love to see another one." Ruan Mozhu's words caused the Crown Princess to abruptly stop her from standing up. Ruan Mozhu's actions clearly indicated that she knew everything; she had originally intended to frame her, but due to a mistake, this wonderful performance had unfolded. Ruan Mozhu naturally wanted to laugh out loud. The performance was so entertaining that she wanted to clap her hands and then slap the Crown Princess—that would be too wicked, wouldn't it? Ruan Mozhu knew that her status wouldn't allow it. Moreover, she didn't want to give the Crown Princess any leverage so quickly, so she went to help her up, but stopped halfway. Suddenly, she let go, and the Crown Princess fell straight to the ground. Ruan Mozhu looked at her and laughed loudly, "Crown Princess, aren't you being a little too careless? Just like that Ye Qianxue!" Upon hearing the name Ye Qianxue, the Crown Princess's face flushed red and then paled. She feigned composure and said, "I don't understand what you're saying! Get out of here, I need to freshen up." Ruan Mozhu wasn't going to listen to her and said to the Crown Princess, "Crown Princess, I was very unhappy with this audience. I've already sent all the ladies back. I'll take my leave now and return to my residence. Please return alone. I truly hope you don't encounter any bandits on your journey." Ruan Mozhu then slowly turned around. But as she turned, the Grand Commander followed, for he had become Ruan Mozhu's man. The Crown Princess was naturally incredulous. After all, she had suddenly become someone else's person, and even helped her with her affairs. Did that mean he knew everything she had done before? If he were to help someone else against her, she would be in deep trouble. So the Crown Princess quickly stood up in disbelief and asked, "Commander, where are you going?" She pointed at the man. The Commander slowly turned around and said, "Your Highness, I'm leaving now. Take care." The Commander then left. He felt there was no need to stay any longer. There's a saying: choose a wise ruler, and your future will improve. However, he felt that choosing the Crown Prince and Crown Princess was a mistake. Now, he had met a new master, one who would surely lead him to better times. He believed in the Seventh Princess. He believed in her current performance and everything else. He believed she had the ability to lead him to a brighter future.
