After being reborn, I became the apple of my enemy's eye.

The concubine pressed him relentlessly with her questions, while Yan Yun simply watched from the side.

Feeling pathetic, angry, and desperate, the concubine's current actions were nothing compared to what she had suffered.

So, Zheng Jihua, what are you going to do with this concubine?

The old woman quietly came up from the side, put her arm around Yan Yun, and said to Zheng Jihua, "My lord, please calm down. We will take the lady away now."

The old woman reached out and nudged Yan Yun, intending to use her as an excuse to leave with her concubine.

How could Yan Yun possibly let her have her way?

Lu Lan made a special trip to have her maid take her to see her, wasn't it just to watch this good show?

Zheng Jihua and his concubine were once deeply in love. He was willing to kill his wife for the sake of a concubine. Isn't this the kind of tactic they used?

Do others also return the favor in this way?

Yan Yun wants to see how your concubine will deal with this.

Zheng Jihua looked at Yan Yun and said impatiently to the concubine, "What are you still crying about?"

He showed no mercy, saying, "If you're going to keep crying like this, then go back to your own courtyard."

As soon as Zheng Jihua said this, two burly men walked over from not far away.

Zheng Jihua looked at them and gave them instructions.

"Send the lady back to me."

The two men immediately went to the concubine.

The concubine shook her head, staring at Zheng Jihua, "My lord..."

The words have not yet fallen.

Zheng Jihua's eyes were cold. "If you say another word, I'll slap you across the face."

When Zheng Jihua said those words.

The old nanny and Yan Yun, who were standing nearby, both knew that he was angry.

Even if she was once a concubine, she is now considered the mistress of this courtyard. To have a servant slap her in the face is tantamount to directly slapping her in the face.

Yan Yun looked at his concubine, expecting her to continue her retort, and then questioned Zheng Jihua: Why is he allowed to have three wives and four concubines? Tell me!

But at this time, the concubine became mute.

Hearing that she would be slapped, the concubine was also afraid. She didn't want to make a fool of herself in front of these servants.

She held back her tears, and when she saw the old woman winking at her, she immediately went to Yan Yun's side and took his hand.

She looked at Zheng Jihua with a sorrowful expression, "My lord, I'll take Ning'er back first. You can come back after you've finished dealing with your business."

The concubine's attitude was to submit.

She supported Yan Yun, and the old nanny also came over. The two of them controlled Yan Yun's movements from the left and right.

"Madam, let's go back first."

The concubine came in a flurry of activity, arriving quickly and leaving just as fast.

Zheng Jihua made a promise to Yan Yun.

"Ning'er, Father will handle these things."

He will handle these things well.

Yan Yun gave him a cold look.

With that one glance, Zheng Jihua felt that it was because Yan Yun had seen what happened between her and Lu Lan that her daughter acted this way towards her.

When the concubine took Yan Yun away, or rather, when the concubine chased after Yan Yun.

Zheng Jihua returned to the room with a gloomy face.

Because the maid who went to find clothes hadn't returned yet, Lu Lan was still in bed, and another maid was wiping her body.

Lu Lan wasn't too surprised that Zheng Jihua had left and then returned. Her face flushed slightly, and she already looked like a little woman.

Zheng Jihua looked at Lu Lan's maid.

"You go out first."

The maid looked at Lu Lan, and after Lu Lan nodded, the maid also left the room and closed the door.

Zheng Jihua looked at Lu Lan and said bluntly, "You should know very well what tricks you've played."

Upon hearing this, Lu Lan stared wide-eyed at Zheng Jihua. Seeing his face, Lu Lan immediately feigned innocence and burst into tears.

"I don't know anything. I just saw the adults drinking, so I followed them. You're the one who let me in."

As for what happened next, she didn't need to explain it too clearly.

After all, the things on the bed can't be faked.

Lu Lan is Zheng Jihua's woman.

Looking at her face, Zheng Jihua recalled the concubine's earlier demeanor and, comparing her to the docile maid before him, asked Lu Lan, "Have you been betrothed to anyone?"

Lu Lan shook her head.

She was actually of marriageable age, but because her parents were away fighting wars all year round, she didn't want any of the marriage proposals her mother had chosen for her.

The original plan was to arrange a marriage for her this year, but the other party was just a deputy general who went to war with his parents, and they rarely saw each other, so Lu Lan was naturally unwilling.

Now that such a thing has happened, Zheng Jihua naturally cannot pretend that nothing has happened.

He looked at Lu Lan's delicate figure and her fair and tender face.

Compared to Ning'er.

They look more like sisters.

Zheng Jihua was silent for a moment, then asked Lu Lan, "Where did the other maid you brought go?"

"She went to find me some clothes."

Zheng Jihua asked, "Would you like to come with me?"

Lu Lan lowered her head shyly, "I'm an adult now."

I received her reply.

Zheng Jihua said, "Then leave the rest to me."

"I'll do whatever you say, sir."

The two maids that Lu Lan brought met up. After Zheng Jihua came out, they went to Lu Lan's side. They stayed in the courtyard, completely unaware of their own fate.

Zheng Jihua's entourage entered the courtyard.

They weren't surprised at first, but before they could even speak, the person in front of them pressed their hand down on their heads.

"what!!"

Yan Yun heard the commotion from afar, but she couldn't get away right now.

She looked towards the source of the sound, which was the courtyard she had just left.

Meanwhile, Lu Lan's maidservant suddenly saw someone rushing out carrying a sack.

When they were tied together and thrown on the ground, they didn't understand what they had done.

They looked at the people in front of them and began to beg for mercy, "Who are you? Do you know that we are maids from the General's Mansion? How can you treat us like this?"

Even when they voluntarily gave their names, the people who captured them remained unmoved.

"Take them away."

The two maids didn't understand what they had done to be arrested like this.

Even his self-introduction couldn't save him. He wanted to ask the prostitute for help, but he couldn't spit out the stuff stuck in his mouth, and he couldn't even say the words "help".

The concubine and Yan Yun did not go far.

She had just told Zheng Jihua that she would patiently wait for the adults to come back.

But as soon as she left Zheng Jihua, she began to cry to the nanny, "My lord, how could he treat me like this?"

Looking at Yan Yun beside her, she suddenly felt a strange mother-daughter bond. She knelt down and hugged Yan Yun, saying, "Ning'er, how could he treat me like this? I gave birth to you for him and did so many things, yet he still falls for other sluts."

Yan Yun felt only pleasure and disgust at the concubine's weeping. Had she forgotten that she herself was standing here in the same way?

The old nanny beside her looked at the concubine calmly.

She wasn't surprised that Zheng Jihua had other women.

She stood aside, not flustered by the concubine's tears. Instead, she said with some regret, "It's just a pity that a girl was born."

The concubine immediately covered Yan Yun's ears.

Although she disliked Yan Yun, she also noticed that Yan Yun was starting to look more and more like the woman she hated.

But after all, she was the daughter she carried for ten months and gave birth to herself.

She hadn't delegated anything to anyone from beginning to end. The concubine looked at the nanny and said, "Ning'er is still here. How can you say such things? She can understand these meanings now."

The old woman didn't care at all. She calmly told the concubine that it was precisely because the young lady was beginning to understand that they needed to let her know that the woman was not a good person. In the future, when she married, she would not be soft-hearted when facing such a woman.

Furthermore, she came to sow discord between Yan Yun and Lu Lan, to let Yan Yun know that Lu Lan was a woman with ill intentions.

Yan Yun listened to every single word.

The concubine didn't think that much about it at all; on the contrary, the old nanny beside her was always giving advice and taking the lead.

The old woman advised the concubine, "For something like this to happen to the master in the mansion, it must be that girl's doing. Madam, you should take precautions as soon as possible."

The concubine naturally felt that it was that vixen Lu Lan who had seduced the master. She was so young yet already possessed such skills, which made people wary.

The concubine hugged Yan Yun, saying, "I must protect my position and not let Ning'er suffer any injustice."
