Madam Han helped the heartbroken old lady back to Shou'an Hall.
Once the head of the household had gone far away, the strong and capable wives all gathered around Pan Jinyue.
To be honest, Shi Lan wasn't surprised that Pan Jinyue would be sent to the North.
With a confused bloodline, how could the Imperial Concubine tolerate her using the Pan family name to roam freely in the Great Yu Dynasty, right under her nose?
However, the situation in the North is indeed very bad. Even if she has the title of Princess, those barbarians will probably not treat her well, except for finding it novel. In particular, the customs there are so unique. Shi Lan is very worried that she will not live past Hua Xin.
Pan Jinxuan couldn't stand by and watch her sisters suffer, so she immediately shouted, "Stop it, all of you!"
Pan Jinxuan was the legitimate daughter of a marquis, and the servants in the mansion listened to her.
Seeing that her wives had stopped pressuring Pan Jinyue, Pan Jinxuan stepped forward and advised, "Third sister, since His Majesty has already issued the decree, it has been proclaimed to the world. Although we are a marquis's mansion, we have no power to disobey. Third sister, you should make some preparations. In a couple of days, the palace should send someone to take you in and teach you court etiquette."
Pan Jinyue smiled coldly after hearing her words, "Elder sister, there's no need to pretend to be kind here. Now that you're married, you naturally have the mood to make sarcastic remarks."
Pan Jinxuan blushed deeply as she was being teased.
Pan Jinyue seemed to have found a way to vent her anger, and glared coldly at Pan Jinxuan, saying, "Don't tell me you don't know. The other day, your aunt was so busy running around trying to get you removed from the list of people to marry far away."
Pan Jinxuan moved her lips, wanting to say no, but the truth was that she had indeed finalized her marriage a few days ago, and would be marrying into the family immediately after June. For various reasons, Madam Han did not tell Pan Jinxuan, but since she returned to the mansion, Madam Han had urged her to embroider her dowry more than once.
Shi Lan coldly watched the two standoff, feeling that the matter was already settled and such a dispute was meaningless. She then said to her wives, "You all take good care of Third Sister when she gets back."
The wives hurriedly agreed, but were afraid to reach out because Pan Jinxuan was present.
Shi Lan then pulled Pan Jinxuan aside and said, "Alright, eldest sister, we can talk about this later. Let's take Wu Niang back first."
Pan Jinxuan then remembered her younger sister, who was still quite young. She lowered her head and saw Pan Jinyan looking timidly at everyone, as if she didn't know what to do.
Shi Lan took her hand, then Pan Jinyan's, and escorted the two sisters back home. (To be continued.)
