Upon hearing Zhan Yu's question, Jiang Mohua immediately nodded.

"Yes, you're right about that. She's been acting strangely lately, Your Highness. Do you think it's because we all wanted her to marry that Northern Desert King that she's angry, and that's why she's acting like this?"

Do you know what? She actually wants to take all the dowry her mother brought back with her! How is that possible? She's practically asking for the moon!

But somehow, Father eventually agreed to her request. We had no choice but to find all those things and return them to her.

When the crown prince heard this, he couldn't help but frown.

"How did she become like this? We don't know if she will help us then. If she doesn't help us, our grand plan will definitely fail."

After hearing the Crown Prince's question, Jiang Mohua nodded.

"Brother Crown Prince, don't worry! She will still help with this matter. She has already promised Father, so she will definitely do as she says."

"It's such a pity about all those things. Her mother brought quite a lot of things, which were originally mine. I was supposed to bring them to my brother, the Crown Prince, when I got married. But now, they'll just end up benefiting that King of the Northern Desert."

When the Crown Prince heard this, he felt a little regretful, but in the end he still looked at Jiang Mo and comforted her.

"It's alright, Xiaohua. Even without this dowry, I will still cherish you. You don't need to worry."

After saying this, the Crown Prince pulled Jiang Mohua into his arms and kissed her.

Although he usually prefers men, he doesn't mind having fun with women.

Fortunately, no one else knew about the Crown Prince's perverse hobby; otherwise, he might not have been able to hold onto his position as Crown Prince.

When Jiang Jingyue returned home, she saw several boxes of things already laid out in her yard. Upon seeing these things, Jiang Jingyue reached out and opened the box closest to her.

As soon as she opened it, she saw that the contents of the box were all cloth, and not very good cloth at that.

When Jiang Jingyue saw these fabrics, her face turned cold.

It seems these people are making a fool of her, trying to deceive her with these low-class things.

Jiang Jingyue closed her box, opened another box, and saw that it was full of broken pearl flowers and the like. Her face grew increasingly pale.

Seeing her young mistress's current state, Qiu'er couldn't help but ask.

"Miss, what's wrong? Why does your face suddenly look so pale?"

What's wrong with these things? Aren't they the lady's old belongings?

Jiang Jingyue glanced at these things and knew that they were definitely not her mother's dowry from before.

Because these things simply don't match up.

"Qiu'er, my mother must have brought a dowry list with her things before! Show me the list."

When Qiu'er heard Jiang Jingyue ask that question, she was taken aback.

“Miss, this dowry list was given to the master from the beginning. It should be in the master’s study right now. If you want to see it, you can ask the master to bring it to you.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Jingyue didn't know whether to call Qiu'er stupid. If that old woman, Madam Jiang, dared to do such a thing, then Minister Jiang must have agreed to it.

In that case, it would be impossible for Jiang Jingyue to get that list from Minister Jiang, and Minister Jiang would never show it to her.

So Jiang Jingyue decided to go and look for that list herself tonight. Only by finding that list could she find out what the dowry items were and whether they matched up.

"Qiu'er, are you stupid? Do you think you can just look at this list whenever you want?"

When Qiu'er heard Jiang Jingyue ask that question, she suddenly realized what was going on.

"Miss, what do you mean by that? Does the master also know about this? Otherwise, he would have shown you the list."

Jiang Jingyue nodded, "Qiu'er, tonight we'll go find that list and see what the dowry includes."

Qiu'er was startled when she heard Jiang Jingyue say that.

"Young Miss, what do you mean by that? Are you planning to sneak into Master's study tonight?"

When Qiu'er asked this, Jiang Jingyue didn't answer her immediately because she had already noticed that someone was coming over.

Jiang Jingyue looked up and saw Madam Jiang leading a group of people carrying things over.

The moment Madam Jiang saw Jiang Jingyue, she couldn't help but frown.

She felt somewhat displeased, but in the end, she still came to Jiang Jingyue's side, looked at her, and asked.

"Xiaoyue, you're back! These things were brought by your mother back then, but some of them weren't preserved very well, so a lot of them are damaged. Take a look and see if there's anything suitable for you to keep. As for the things that aren't suitable, you can decide what to do with them yourself!"

When Jiang Jingyue heard her say that, she couldn't help but smile and look at her, asking a question.

"Madam Jiang, are you sure these things are all part of my mother's dowry? You guarantee you haven't secretly switched them."

When Madam Jiang heard this, she felt a little flustered for some reason, but after a while, she nodded.
