The maid in the room got up and retreated automatically.

At this time, the Prime Minister's wife spoke.

"Wan'er, mother has told you so many times to stay calm when encountering problems, why can't you remember?"

"Mom, how can you ask me to calm down?"

"Didn't you see that bastard even climbed onto my daughter's head and pooped. How could I stay calm?"

Listening to her daughter's vulgar words, the Prime Minister's wife shook her head in disappointment.

"Wan'er, you should know how much time and money we've spent educating you for so many years to build a good reputation for you."

"Don't indulge in those romantic affairs all day long. You must know that you are shouldering the future of the entire family. You must not make any mistakes. As for that village girl..."

"Mom, you're going to help your daughter, right?"

Chu Wan'er's eyes lit up instantly, and she ran over excitedly, hugged the other's arm, and shook it back and forth like a spoiled child.

"Okay, Mom will help you."

"Then mother plans to..."

"Anyone who dares to stand in my daughter's way will be completely wiped out from this world."

When Chu Wan'er heard this, her face was filled with joy.

"But this matter cannot be rushed. You must remain calm and win over the Crown Prince as soon as possible. Make sure you marry into the Crown Prince's mansion. I will clear away the remaining obstacles for you one by one."

"That's great, thank you, Mom."

The Prime Minister's wife doted on Chu Wan'er's nose and said, "You——"

"Oh, mother~~~~"

"Alright, don't lose your temper in front of the servants from now on. If word gets out, it will be bad for your reputation."

Chu Wan'er pouted and said with concern, "Mother manages the household well, how dare those maids and servants say such nonsense?"

"That won't work either."

The Prime Minister’s wife said seriously.

"Now is the most critical moment for you to marry into the Crown Prince's Mansion. No accidents can happen."

Chu Wan'er stuck out her tongue and said, "Okay, Wan'er understands, mother."

"That's better. Come here," soon, several maids came into the room and walked forward with their heads lowered.

"You guys, help the young lady to wash and put on makeup, and change into a new dress."

"Yes, ma'am."

Prince's Mansion

The prince went out this morning, but when he came back he brought Chen Ningzhu and Liu Zhiyi with him. This time, the guards at the gatehouse widened their eyes in fear.

Fortunately, the prince did not hold them accountable, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

But I just can't figure out how these two people got out of the Prince's Mansion.

Jiang Xuanyan kept his word and asked someone to take Chen Ningzhu back to Meixiang Garden as soon as he came back. He also asked the housekeeper to go to the warehouse and pick out a lot of things to send to Meixiang Garden.

This caused quite a stir, and for a moment, the wind direction in the Prince's Mansion changed again.

Chen Ningzhu didn't have time to pay attention to these things. Now, she was closing the door and taking out silver bills from all over her body.

Next to him, Liu Zhiyi looked constipated.

"Zhuzhu, did you rob a bank? Where did you get so many banknotes?"

Shen Ningzhu raised her eyebrows complacently.

"I took it from the storehouse of Prince Chen's Mansion. Hehe, what do you think? Am I, your sister, a master at making money?"

Liu Zhiyi: ...

Ah this!

"Don't just stand there, come and count them. I don't even know exactly how many there are."

Liu Zhiyi picked up a stack casually, and when he accidentally saw the denominations on them, his eyes almost popped out and his mouth was so big that an egg could be stuffed in it.

"Ten, ten, one hundred thousand taels?"

"This banknote is worth 100,000 taels? Are the others the same?"

Liu Zhiyi glanced at the stack of banknotes in his hand. When he confirmed that they were all worth 100,000 taels, he was so excited that he bit his tongue.

But she didn't care about the pain. She covered her mouth with one hand and looked at the money in her hand with a smile.

At this time, Chen Ningzhu had already taken out the last few banknotes, sorted them out, and stuffed them all into Liu Zhiyi's hands.

"That's all. Count how many there are."

Liu Zhiyi's eyes sparkled and he nodded excitedly, "Yeah."

Liu Zhiyi has a unique skill, which is counting money. In the past, she often counted money live. Her speed was so fast that it dazzled the viewers. Moreover, she never made a mistake in counting.

This time, changing it to silver notes would not be a problem for her.

She finished counting in the blink of an eye.

"Two million and one hundred thousand taels, ahhh, sister, you are so awesome, my sister has become a rich woman again, and I have become the rich woman's best friend, please support me, please support me~~~~"

Chen Ningzhu pouted in disgust.

"That's enough, huh? When haven't I supported you? Is it necessary to be like this?

It's really shameful. I'll give you half, and you can take my half too."

"It's not convenient for me to go out these days. I will try to distract the guards. You can ask Song Hanchuan to take you out of the house.

We have the money to save in a bank, and the land and shops to buy. With these, we can enjoy our retirement in peace and contentment."

Liu Zhiyi's face froze.

“I…he…”

The joy of the beads blossoms,

"Hey, hey, the iron tree has blossomed. Look at this little face, it's almost as red as a monkey's butt. Hahahaha——"

"Zhuzhu, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"I'm not talking nonsense. I understand. I understand everything."

Shen Ningzhu raised her eyebrows meaningfully, successfully making Liu Zhiyi's face turn red like a boiled shrimp.

"I...I'm going to fight you—"

"Oh, no, no, no, I know I was wrong, help me, hahahaha——"

Chen Ningzhu was most afraid of being tickled, so Liu Zhiyi would tickle her itchy spots hard. No matter how she begged for mercy, it was useless. Shen Ningzhu was so scared that she ran away and went straight to the prince's study.

"Bang—"

The door was pushed open with force, and the man holding the scarlet in his hand had a flash of displeasure in his eyes, and raised his head to look at the culprit.

The other party was unaware of anything and walked in with a swagger, giving him a bright smile.

"Hi, Your Highness, are you working?"

Jiang Xuanyan felt the veins on his scalp throbbing. He raised his hand helplessly, pressed his brow with his slender fingertips, and asked,

"You know I'm at work, yet you still dare to barge in? Do you know that my study is not a place that anyone can enter casually?"

Chen Ningzhu laughed,

"I remember last time, you asked me to help you grind ink? Besides, I am your woman, and the Prince's Mansion is my home. It's my own home, and there is no place I can't go."

Jiang Xuanyan's mouth twitched.

He thought that this woman's ability to gain entry into people's homes was becoming stronger and stronger, and he felt ashamed of himself.

But, is the Prince’s Mansion his home?

Oh, it’s funny, but from childhood to adulthood, he never knew that he had a home.

"Chen Ningzhu, can you tell me what home is in your eyes? What is home?"

The man was fine just now, but his mood suddenly changed. He seemed to be shrouded in darkness, and his narrow phoenix eyes looked at her coldly.

For some reason, Chen Ningzhu sensed boundless loneliness in this indifference.

Thinking of the rumors about his life, I suddenly understood.

His biological mother died in childbirth, and his adoptive mother, the late queen, died suddenly when he was very young. Afterwards, the entire family of the late queen's mother was convicted and completely destroyed.
