Several maids outside the door heard the noise inside and wanted to rush in to help.

But I don’t know why, my knee hurt and I fell to the ground, and I couldn’t get up for a while.

However, the commotion here was so loud that Wu quickly brought people over and the situation changed in an instant.

Xu Youran, with messy hair and a red and swollen face, glared at Xu Jinyi and raised her hand to hit back.

Xu Jinyi's eyes turned fierce, and he picked up the teapot on the table and threw it to the ground.

Picking up a larger piece of debris, he said, "Come on, if you dare to do anything, I will die in front of you."

"If I die, and I'm no longer a chess piece, what do you think will happen when Dad comes back?"

Xu Youran didn't believe that Xu Jinyi dared to die, so she continued to move forward.

Wang pulled her back in time, her expression extremely ferocious.

I looked at Xu Jinyi in surprise and suspicion, as her personality had changed drastically. Could it be that she was so devastated by Xu Haoran's death that her personality had changed?

This is not a good thing. Looking at her daughter's face, Mrs. Wu was angry and frightened.

She felt like Xu Jinyi was about to escape from her control.

She raised her smiling face and said, "Yier, what are you doing? Two sisters just had a little fight, why are you going to die?"

"Put the things down quickly and don't let your mother worry."

Xu Jinyi threw the two trays that Xu Youran brought from the table towards them.

"Get out! Take your stuff and get out!"

"I tell you, if you want me to be your concubine, you have to carry my body over."

The heavy tray happened to hit Wu's mother and daughter, and they cried out in pain.

Looking at Xu Jinyi, his face was pale and his eyes were as if filled with poison.

Mrs. Wu left with Xu Youran, feeling very angry.

"Mom, look at my face. Am I just going to let it go like this?" Xu Youran touched her burning face, her face full of anger.

"Forget it?! It's just a matter of time. When the time comes, this little bitch will know what happens if she angers me." Wu said with a gloomy face.

"But if she's like this, what if we really force her to death? How can we use her to achieve our goal?!"

The corners of Wu's mouth curled up strangely: "If you can control the person she cares about, how can she not be obedient?"

Xu Youran was puzzled. "The only person she cares about is Xu Haoran. I'm afraid even Dad doesn't mean much to her."

Wu sent the servant away and whispered, "Even if she doesn't care about anything, her mother who gave birth to her must care."

Like that woman, she had wanted to provoke her and make her commit suicide many times, but because of these two little bastards, that woman had lived for more than ten years.

The Prime Minister knew what she wanted to do, and he locked the woman in a secret room and built a big cage so that she couldn't kill her even if she wanted to.

She hated the woman so much that she took the place in her husband's heart and wished she would die.

Over the years, whether it was poisoning or direct violence, the Prime Minister would always find out.

And she couldn't help but be warned that the woman's life was a thorn in her heart.

I can't pull it out no matter what I do.

Since Xu Jinyi is uncontrollable, the only way is to use that woman to restrain her and make her obedient.

Of course, she wouldn't use it unless she had to.

After all, if the news that the woman is still alive gets out, the reputation of the Prime Minister's Mansion will be ruined.

Watching the mother and daughter leave angrily, Xu Jinyi threw down the tile in his hand.

The palm of his right hand was red and burning, but Xu Jinyi was in a very good mood.

Her hands were already hurting so much, Xu Youran's face must be even more painful.

I'm afraid it will take several days for the slap marks on my face to go away.

Su Mian looked at her with a worried look on his face: "Miss, the young master is not here now. If you do this today, the second young lady will definitely not let you go."

"Your wife will decide on your marriage. What will you do then?"

"You should be patient. Once you get married and leave here, everything will be easy."

Xu Jinyi knew that the only useful person in this mansion was Su Mian, and she also knew that she was really worried about her.

Xu Jinyi shook her head: "Even if I don't do this today, they won't let me go."

"Don't you understand after all these years? The fate of them and I is endless. Now that my brother is gone, they will naturally extend their claws to me."

Su Mian looked at Xu Jinyi with tears in her eyes. Her young lady was really pitiful.

Although she is a legitimate daughter, her treatment is similar to that of the maids. What makes her even worse off than them is that her freedom is limited to this small courtyard and garden.

The emperor flew into a rage after hearing what the secret guard had said. In the court, he stared at Prime Minister Xu with a gloomy face and started scolding him.

Prime Minister Xu was sweating profusely, not knowing what he had done wrong and how to offend Buxi.

Anyway, attending court every day has become his biggest fear, for he is afraid that the emperor will punish him.

The emperor was torturing Prime Minister Xu slowly, just like cutting meat with a blunt knife, testing his ability to endure.

After repeated reprimands, he began to sort out his official positions one by one.

He was demoted directly from Prime Minister to Marquis, and then to Prime Minister.

After the morning court session, Prime Minister Xu looked dejected, his shoulders hunched, and his expression was indescribable.

Looking at several ministers walking towards him, Prime Minister Xu's face was long.

"Prime Minister Xu, no, it should be Prime Minister Xu. What on earth has become of His Majesty lately? Why is he so disgusted with you, the Prime Minister?"

"Prime Minister, I advise you to speak less and make fewer mistakes in court. Keep your head down and don't make your presence so strong. Otherwise, if your position is demoted one day, you won't be able to enjoy your retirement."

Prime Minister Xu's face was as dark as ink, and he could hear the jokes of these people.

Pursing his lips, Prime Minister Xu strode towards the palace gate.

It had been a long time since he had suffered such humiliation since he became the prime minister.

Most importantly, he had no idea why the emperor disliked him.

It was obviously directed at him.

He was really afraid that one day the emperor would get furious and want to drag him down and chop him off.

Wu also knew what had happened recently and carefully changed Prime Minister Xu's court clothes.

When Wu heard that the emperor had demoted him again, she could no longer sit still. She felt very uncomfortable when her husband's family was in trouble.

"Madam, please ask the Imperial Concubine in the palace to find out how I have offended His Majesty, so that I can prescribe the right remedy."

"Now, as a husband, I am really worried that I will be fired one day and I won't know why."

Wu nodded repeatedly: "I will go to the palace right away."

In the Bright Moon Hall of the Imperial Palace.

The imperial concubine practiced ice skating hard on the lake in the yard, and she didn't know how many times she fell before she made some progress.

Dancing on ice is difficult in itself, and one must have a light body and a flexible waist to be able to master it.

It can be seen how much effort the imperial concubine put into this ice skating.

When Wu followed the nanny who led the way, she saw the imperial concubine spinning on the ice.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May your Majesty be at peace."

The imperial concubine slowly stopped and wiped the sweat from her forehead.
