I was sold when I opened my eyes! My sick and disabled husband comforts me every night after he wake

The next morning, Madam Lin went directly to the palace to see Consort Liang.

To have a legitimate reason to visit the Crown Prince's residence, it would be better to get Consort Liang's consent, after all, she is the Crown Prince's biological mother and the Emperor's favorite concubine.

When she arrived at Fangcao Zhai, Consort Liang was pruning flowers and plants in the courtyard. Seeing the maid leading her in, she hurried over to greet her.

"Madam Lin, what brings you to Fangcao Zhai?"

Madam Lin quickly bowed in greeting.

"May Your Highness Consort Liang enjoy boundless blessings."

"Please rise quickly. We've known each other for many years, so there's no need for formalities."

Mrs. Lin replied with a smile:

"Although we are old friends, we still need to show the proper etiquette."

Consort Liang quickly stepped forward, took her hand, and affectionately pulled her to sit down on a chair.

"You wouldn't come here without a reason, would you? Tell me, what brings you here?"

Madam Lin hesitated for a moment, looking at her with some difficulty.

“Yuwei was beaten on her first day at the Crown Prince’s residence. Her father told her to go home, but she refused. So I thought I’d go see her and, if possible, stay with her for a couple of days. You know, this child grew up in the palm of her father’s and my hands; she’s the apple of our eye. I feel really uneasy knowing she’s been wronged!”

"What? Yuwei got beaten up? Who did it?"

Clearly, Consort Liang was somewhat surprised by this news.

Madam Lin sighed, wiping away her tears with her handkerchief, and said with a sigh:

"He's the steward of the Crown Prince's residence. I heard he's that country woman's older brother. Last time Yuwei went there, he deliberately made things difficult for her, giving her the most dilapidated courtyard. This time, he actually attacked her. How can I feel at ease letting Yuwei stay in the Crown Prince's residence?"

"This is outrageous! Yuwei has come to the palace so many times, yet she has never mentioned this to me. She is so kind."

“Yuwei has been kind-hearted since she was little and doesn’t like to fight with others. If it weren’t for her love for the Crown Prince, she wouldn’t have gone to the Crown Prince’s residence to be bullied by these country folk. As her mother, I’m really worried about her, so I thought I’d come and discuss it with you and ask if I could go to the Crown Prince’s residence to stay with her for a few days.”

Consort Liang pondered for a moment, then frowned and nodded.

“As a mother, it is only right for you to go and keep your daughter company. However, that Lan Zhi is not someone to be trifled with. Most of the people in the Crown Prince’s residence are her people. You must be careful when you go.”

Madam Lin immediately turned cold.

"Now that you've said that, it's no wonder Yuwei got beaten up. It seems these people are a bunch of uncultured country bumpkins. I have to go and avenge Yuwei."

"Go ahead, anyway, Yuwei is the most suitable for the position of Crown Princess. She is kind-hearted and there are some things she dare not do, so you, as her mother, can do them for her!"

Without a second thought, Madam Lin nodded in agreement.

"With your words, I am relieved. I will leave the palace now and head to the Crown Prince's residence immediately."

Consort Liang did not try to keep her, and immediately got up to see her off.

She knew Madam Lin's personality quite well; if she made a move, Lan Zhi would definitely be no match for her.

Thinking of this, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, revealing a smug expression.

Prince's Mansion

The three children's clear reading voices echoed throughout the Crown Prince's residence. Lan Zhi sat quietly in the courtyard, listening, her mind drifting back to her school days in her previous life.

She was very happy back then. Her life was free of worries. She could laugh freely and play around with her classmates as she pleased.

But since she transmigrated here, her life has been completely different from her previous life.

Aside from Wei Jianning, she didn't think this other world was any good, and even hated the scheming and infighting here.

"Miss……"

Xiangxiu's call interrupted her thoughts.

She frowned slightly and looked up.

"what happened?"

"Our Crown Prince's residence has another big problem."

trouble?

Lan Zhi is immune to these two words.

"Who's coming?"

She asked the question casually, but Xiangxiu answered very cautiously.

"Madam Lin, Lin Yuwei's mother."

"What?"

She was still shocked.

"Why is she here?"

Xiangxiu shook her head.

"I don't know. She brought quite a lot of things, as well as a dozen maids and guards. It seems she wants to stay at the Crown Prince's residence."

Stay?

Upon hearing those two words, Lan Zhi felt a mix of amusement and exasperation.

"The Crown Prince's residence isn't an inn. What gives her the right to stay here? And by what status does she come to stay?"

Xiangxiu shook her head again.

"She came aggressively, as if she were coming to fight a war. I didn't dare to ask any questions, or even look at her."

Ah!

Lan Zhi frowned slightly in displeasure and said sternly:

"She came to the Crown Prince's residence without even greeting me, the person in charge? She really doesn't take me, a nobody, seriously, or treats me, the village chief, like a government official."

Xiangxiu looked at her, puzzled.

"Miss, what are you saying? Have you lost your mind from anger?"

Lan Zhi clenched her fists, her face contorted with anger as she curled her lips into a sneer.

"I've realized that weakness won't work if I want to live here. Let's go take a look."

She wanted to meet this Lady Lin who had so abruptly moved into the Crown Prince's residence and see what kind of magic she possessed.

Lin Yuwei was somewhat displeased by Madam Lin's arrival and even began to complain about her.

"Mother, what are you doing here? And with so much stuff, are you really going to stay?"

Mrs. Lin nodded without hesitation.

“My daughter was bullied here, so of course I can’t stand idly by. I’ve already talked to your father, and Consort Liang has agreed to let her stay here for a few days to keep you company.”

"Mother, I don't need you to stay with me, you should go back now!"

Lin Yuwei pouted, "I'm doing just fine here, why are you coming to cause trouble?"

"Silly girl……"

Madam Lin gave an angry rebuke, displeased.

"If you hadn't been bullied, would I have come? Besides, I heard that country woman is very tough. Can you handle her by yourself?"

Hearing Mrs. Lin's words, Lin Yuwei was a little surprised.

"Mother, do you mean you're willing to work with me to deal with that Lan Zhi?"

Madam Lin's eyes flashed, and she nodded with a half-smile.

"You are my daughter. Do you think I wouldn't know what you want to do? Don't worry, I will help you."

Lin Yuwei immediately went from looking reluctant to beaming with joy.

She leaped into Madam Lin's arms.

"Mom, you are so good, you are the best mother in the whole world."

"Alright, alright, you're so good at sweet-talking your mother..."

'Um……'

When Lan Zhi entered, she happened to see the two women embracing. She immediately covered her mouth with her handkerchief and coughed lightly.

Hearing the sound, the mother and daughter turned to look at her together. Lin Yuwei quickly whispered something in Madam Lin's ear.

"Mother, she's that country woman, her surname is Lan and her given name is Zhi. She's not someone to mess with."

Madam Lin sized up Lan Zhi, who was walking towards her, paused for a moment, and then gave a fake smile.

"This must be Miss Lan."

Lan Zhi could see the hostility in her eyes and replied without hesitation:

"My surname is Lan, and my given name is Zhi. I am the person in charge of this Crown Prince's residence. And you are?"
