After transmigrating into the book, I replaced the innocent-looking girl and became the Crown Prince

"I...we're not..."

Under Wu Weiwei's sharp gaze, Qin was speechless for a moment.

Qin couldn't say it, but He Xiuer was like a dead pig that wasn't afraid of boiling water.

"Why should we? My cousin is a member of the He family. We're here to take her memorial tablet back for a proper burial. Is that against the law?"

Looking at He Xiuer, who was quite beautiful, Wu Weiwei thought, "No wonder Madam Qin said her daughter is a phoenix; she is indeed very good-looking."

"You can't take the memorial tablet back, because the Crown Prince won't allow it."

"Just say it directly, what is your purpose in causing this disturbance?"

He Xiuer and Qin Shi looked at each other.

Both of them wore a smug look on their faces.

After a moment, He Xiuer whispered, "We can stop making trouble, but you have to give us some benefits."

Haha, so that's what it was about.

"Miss, let them make a fuss if they want to. The young master will deal with them when the time comes."

Why should girls give them benefits?

Linghe, who was standing nearby, couldn't stand it and tried to persuade her.

"Yes, sister, they're just unreasonable people. Let's go back!"

Having witnessed the tantrums of the Qin mother and daughter, Wu Heran naturally didn't want his sister to pay any attention to them.

Seeing that everyone was trying to persuade Wu Weiwei, Qin Shi became anxious.

"I'm not making a fuss. The house deed and silver that my niece brought have all been taken by your Marquis's mansion. Shouldn't I come here to ask for them back?"

Their purpose today was only to seek benefits from the Marquis's mansion, and they did not want to provoke the young master. Besides, they did not want to do as the cloaked man wished.

"mother……"

He Xiuer tugged at her hand.

Didn't I say we couldn't reveal the secret of the tin box?

"What did you say?"

When Wu Weiwei heard Qin mention the house deed and the money, she was shocked.

This this……

How could they, who are thousands of miles away, have known about this?

When the prince found the iron box, it contained only some useless junk; the important valuables the female lead had brought from Tongzhou were not inside.

The clothes and jewelry were all there, but some valuable and important items were missing.

That's why the Crown Prince suspected that the female lead hadn't actually died, but had escaped using a "death ruse."

Now that the mother and daughter have come knocking again, the witnesses are all there, and if we add that iron box to the mix, this...

Wu Weiwei looked at the Qin mother and daughter, "Come with me."

The mother and daughter exchanged a glance, knowing they had a chance.

Seeing her master being fooled by the mother and daughter, Linghe was both anxious and angry.

She glanced at Songzi beside her, gesturing for him to inform the Crown Prince.

Wu Weiwei led them to a nearby teahouse.

"You just said that the Marquis's mansion confiscated the young lady's house deed and silver. I've never heard anyone from the Marquis's mansion mention this before?"

Wu Weiwei said casually.

She now suspects that the Qin mother and daughter are in camouflage with the cloaked man.

"Why should I tell you? You have to give me five thousand taels of silver before I'll tell you."

The Qin family made an outrageous demand.

He Xiuer looked at Wu Weiwei, gazing thoughtfully at her face.

"Hehe, you're probably mistaken."

I don't owe you anything.

Seeing that it wasn't easy for you two to come all the way to the capital, if you need money for your return journey, I could consider helping you raise some.

"If you have no money, then why do you need us to come along?"

Qin originally thought that Wu Weiwei wanted to use money to shut her and her daughter up, but to her surprise, she said she had no money.

"This is fifty taels."

Wu Weiwei took out a silver ingot from her bosom.

Qin reached out to take it, but Wu Weiwei stopped her.

"I bet someone sent you to the capital to cause trouble at the Marquis's residence and then extort money from you?"

Upon hearing this, Qin's face changed.

She chuckled awkwardly, "Young lady, why are you speaking so rudely..."

"We came to sort out my cousin's belongings, how did it become money from the Marquis's mansion?"

"That's it!"

Wu Weiwei let go of her hand; she already knew what was going on.

Upon seeing this, Madam Qin quickly grabbed the fifty taels of silver.

"This fifty taels is enough for you and your mother to stay at an inn for a few days. As for anything else, I can't help you with that..."

Give them fifty taels of silver; you never know when you might need their help.

Watching Wu Weiwei's departing figure, He Xiuer murmured, "Mother, do you think I can be like her?"

Qin was still happy to have received fifty taels of silver for nothing.

Hearing her daughter's question, she unconsciously replied, "What's the same?"

"To be the Crown Prince's woman."

"What did you say!"

A clap of thunder startled He Xiuer.

She glared at her mother, Qin, with displeasure.

"Can't you?"

As soon as Wu Weiwei stepped out of the teahouse, she saw the young master hurrying towards her.

Her delicate brows furrowed slightly. Why was the young master here?

"Are you OK?"

Lu Hanting checked her over and over, and only felt relieved after finding that she was alright.

"It was just a few words with them, what could possibly happen?"

"What about people?"

"gone."

"Since you've left, let's go back!"

They initially considered having them driven out of the capital, but then they realized that since the people were already gone, there was no point in doing so.

at the same time.

Inn.

"Waiter, how long have those mother and daughter been gone?"

A figure wearing a cloak stood at the second-floor entrance.

“Sir, you are not a guest here, so I cannot disclose guest information to you.”

The waiter pretended to hesitate.

After the cloaked man took out a piece of silver and placed it in his palm, the waiter happily said, "They went out this morning."

They said they were going to the Marquis of Dingguo's residence, but I didn't hear the whole story about what they were going to do there.

The waiter chuckled awkwardly.

"Okay, you can go ahead and do your work!"

After the waiter left, the cloaked man stood there stunned for a moment before finally departing.

The prince escorted Wu Weiwei to the courtyard gate, and just as he was about to go in, he was hurriedly called away by Ru Feng due to official business.

Watching the prince's departing figure, Wu Weiwei felt somewhat uneasy.

"Miss, the young master cares about you, and he will surely come over after he finishes his official duties."

Linghe assumed that Wu Weiwei was reluctant to part with the young master, and thus teased her.

"Did you summon the young master just now?"

Wu Weiwei turned her head and suddenly asked a question.

Linghe was taken aback. "Yes, miss, what's wrong?"

"You made a mistake today."

Wu Weiwei's voice suddenly turned stern.

"Aunt, young lady..."

Seeing this, Linghe didn't understand what she had done wrong, but she still immediately knelt down.

"This servant does not know where I went wrong..."

Linghe's eyes were red-rimmed, and she felt completely innocent.

"Your mistake was that you liked to act on your own. Today you will be punished by standing in the courtyard all night. You should reflect on your actions!"

Wanqiu looked at Linghe and sighed inwardly.

The young lady did this today not wanting the young master to know, but Linghe took it upon herself to have Songzi summon the young master.

The same thing happened with the young master last time, and it won't change this time either.

It's good to teach the girl a lesson; otherwise, if she doesn't change her temperament, she'll ruin her future sooner or later.

Wanqiu patted her shoulder and followed Wu Weiwei inside.

End of Hai hour.

He Yaya passed by Biyunting and spotted a figure trembling at the gate.

She took a closer look and realized it was an old acquaintance.

"Tsk tsk! Isn't this Linghe, the favored head maid of Biyun Court?"
