My best friends both transmigrated into a book and married powerful officials; she left me and I lef

Upon hearing this, Liu Wenxian immediately understood.

Just as she was about to speak, the old lady spoke again: "This mansion cannot tolerate someone who deceives the master. Since you are unwilling to speak, then pack your bags and leave the mansion."

Her tone was very casual, but it sounded very harsh to Liu Wenxian.

Jin Rui suddenly knelt down, her lips trembling slightly, her voice hoarse, "Madam."

Liu Wenxian turned and glared at her fiercely, "You bastard, what else haven't you explained? Hurry up and say it!"

Jin Rui murmured a few times, and as soon as she looked up, she saw Liu Wenxian in front of her blinking frantically at her.

Jin Rui instantly understood.

Her eyes flickered slightly; the old lady must know something to ask such a question.

There's no point in continuing to hide it now.

With that in mind, Jinrui quickly explained the whole story clearly.

The old lady glared at her, her face contorted with anger, and said in a furious voice, "She's already got the imperial edict, what are you doing now?"

Liu Wenxian raised her head slightly and muttered softly, "Who knows how she got it? Besides, I haven't said anything about her directly."

The old lady snorted coldly, "So you do such low-class things? After all these years in the manor, you still haven't smoothed out the bad habits in your bones."

The two sentences struck Liu Wenxian's heart heavily. She lowered her head slightly, biting her lip tightly, and remained silent.

The old lady slammed her hand on the table, looking at him with a disappointed expression. "If you really can't stand it, you can just say so. You agree on the surface, but then you secretly sabotage people behind their backs."

She paused, then continued in a cold voice, "Who taught you this?"

Liu Wenxian looked up and saw the old lady give an order, "You will kneel in the ancestral hall for the next two days to reflect on your actions. Think carefully. You can do this for her own good and teach her the rules, but you must also abide by the rules yourself."

"Mother!" Feng Shinian rushed over and, after catching his breath, looked at the old lady and said loudly.

"Oh." The old lady glanced at him casually. "I haven't seen you around usually, but you're quite fast today."

Feng Shinian nodded slightly and said unhurriedly, "Mother, what are you saying? I spend most of my time in the manor. If you want to see me, it's just a matter of saying a word."

At the same time, she bent down slightly and reached out to support Liu Wenxian's arm, "Get up, the ground is cold, lest you get sick all over again at night."

Liu Wenxian glanced at the old lady subconsciously, then silently pulled her arm back. "Mother punished me for a reason. It was because I didn't do well that I made Mother angry."

Seeing her determination, Feng Shinian withdrew his hand.

He straightened up and looked directly at the old lady. "Mother, I don't know what Xian'er did to anger you, but I am her husband and should be punished along with her."

Old lady: "Are you threatening me?"

Feng Shinian lowered his head slightly and said sincerely, "How dare Shinian threaten my mother?"

The old lady suddenly stood up and looked at him coldly. "You don't dare? I don't think there's anything in the world you wouldn't dare to do! Fine, since you're so sincere in pleading for her, then go kneel in the ancestral hall with her."

Meanwhile, inside the Hibiscus Garden.

Sang Luan slumped onto the table, looking utterly dejected. "Where can I find any more red and blue flowers? Roses will do too, any kind of flower will do!"

Yu Po's eyes suddenly lit up. She quickly stepped forward, walked to Sang Luan's side, and said excitedly, "Miss, are roses and jasmine okay?"

Sang Luan immediately straightened up and nodded quickly, "That's quite good."

Yu Po leaned closer. "This servant knows a place where there are natural roses and jasmine."

"Really?" Sang Luan's eyes widened immediately. "Then take me there right away."

Yu Po was also overjoyed, but then hesitated for a moment.

Sang Luan couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Can't we just go in here?"

Yu Po shook her head, "No, that's not it. I'm just worried about Madam. Madam, she..."

In the blink of an eye, Sang Luan took out several homemade bags.

She shook her pocket in the air. "Let's go, take me to the place you mentioned first."

Yu Po's brows and eyes showed a hint of excitement.

Immediately afterwards, the two carefully left Furong Garden. Sang Luan's eyes darted around, and she was thinking about how to answer Liu Wenxian's questions so that she could leave the mansion smoothly.

When she arrived at the front hall, she found that Liu Wenxian was nowhere to be seen.

Sang Luan didn't think much of it, but breathed a sigh of relief. Then, the two of them swaggered out of the mansion.

Prince's Mansion.

"Have you thought it through? After you press this handprint, from now on you will be my maid."

Meng Youning glanced at the person opposite her casually, then asked indifferently.

At this moment, there is a piece of paper on the table directly in front of her, covered with dense writing.

On one side, Cheng Zhaodi was standing next to Meng Youning.

Her eyes were fixed on the papers on the table.

The instant Meng Youning finished speaking, he pressed his handprint in the lower right corner without even thinking.

It seemed as if they were afraid the person on the other end would change their mind later that night.

Cheng Zhaodi's eyes flickered slightly, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Once he signs this enslavement agreement, he will have no further connection with Xiang Hongxuan.

Whenever she thought of Xiang Hongxuan, unpleasant memories would flood her mind.

She shook her head, instantly suppressing the thoughts in her mind.

Immediately, Cheng Zhaodi slowly raised her eyes, looked steadily at Meng Youning, and said word by word, "I have made up my mind. From now on, you are my master, and I will serve you wholeheartedly."

She lowered her head.

It's better to stay in the Xiang family as a nominal wife, worse than a dog, than to follow Miss Meng in front of me.

From the skill Miss Meng displayed while drunk today, she knew that Miss Meng must be a woman with a very clever and insightful mind.

She stood far away in the crowd, yet her presence was immediately noticeable.

Although she looks frail, she can quickly resolve any issues that arise.

Meng Youning stared silently at Cheng Zhaodi below for a long time before suddenly laughing out loud, "You're so eager to escape the tiger's den of the Xiang family, aren't you afraid of falling into a wolf's lair right after escaping the tiger's den?"

She tapped the table lightly with her fingers, each tap landing heavily on Cheng Zhaodi.

Cheng Zhaodi raised her eyes slightly, shook her head, and said with a firm gaze, "No, from the first time I met you, I knew you weren't the kind of cunning, ruthless, and vicious person who would stop at nothing to achieve your goals."

Meng Youning slowly picked up the papers on the table.
