"You'd better tone it down!" Jiang Chuwei said coolly.
She accepted Nightingale's indenture, but since she was Lin Muheng's person after all, it wouldn't be a big deal if she accidentally killed Lu Yanfang.
Prince Yu would not allow his carefully trained secret guards to perish in the Marquis's residence.
Lu Yanfang suddenly stopped trying to pry Jiang Chuwei's hand away.
In the Marquis's residence, she knew her own worth.
Although she was a young lady from a noble family, she was merely a tool for the family to seek its own interests.
My father is useless outside, but he's the one who rules the house at home.
If he were to truly oppose the General's Mansion and affect the Marquis's Mansion's vital interests, it was something he was capable of doing: protecting his daughter-in-law while abandoning his daughter.
But watching boxes of good items being carried away like flowing water was unbearable.
Lu Yanfang was heartbroken beyond measure.
Seeing that she dared not throw another tantrum, the nightingale quickly disappeared again.
Lu Yanfang dared not cause any more trouble.
She could only watch helplessly as box after box of jewelry was moved away.
After matching each item with the dowry list, Jiang Chuwei glanced at Lu Yanfang and said to everyone, "Let's go to Jinfutang!"
Since I've already fallen out with my mother-in-law, one more thing won't matter.

forecourt
The Marquis was just about to go and meet his old friends.
"My lord, Prince Yu has arrived," a servant rushed in to report.
"Prince Yu?" The Marquis's hands trembled.
What is the Prince of Yu doing here?
Or has that rebellious son done something outrageous again?
Lord Lu is afraid!
When dealing with members of the royal family, he couldn't help but want to run away.
Who was the Prince of Yu? He was the kind of person who could confiscate the entire Marquis's mansion if he was displeased.
"My lord! The prince has arrived and is in the front courtyard." At the same time, Nightingale was also reporting.
"What brings Your Highness here?" Jiang Chuwei asked in surprise.
No one can answer this question.
Nightingale knew nothing of her master's affairs.

Jinfutang
Chen Yulan finally managed to coax the Marquis away.
As long as the Marquis is not home, she wants to see today whether Jiang Chuwei dares to touch a single needle or thread of Jinfutang.
Who greets guests in the front yard?
The crown prince was still on duty at this time.
“The Marquis just went out but has turned back,” Nightingale said.
Jiang Chuwei: "Your Highness has arrived at just the right time. Let him watch a good show!"
It seems that Lord Lu intends to leave home on purpose so that Madam Chen can keep Jinfutang's dowry.
Jiang Chuwei was not surprised at all by this family's shameless behavior.
At Yuyuan, the Marquis, fearing embarrassment, allowed Jiang Chuwei to move his daughter's dowry.
Now that he knows Jiang Chuwei is going to Jinfutang, he starts to hide.
After all, the Marquis's mansion still has to maintain its reputation, and Jinfutang needs some nice items to enhance its image.
As long as Lord Lu is not around, the shameless things that Madam Chen does are none of his business.
However, he was unlucky; the Prince of Yu arrived.
Jiang Chuwei wondered to herself: Has the Prince of Yu come looking for her?
After all, they hadn't seen each other since that first meeting.
But it was such a perfect timing.
Since the Marquis cares about his reputation, then let's give him face.
When Chen Yulan saw Jiang Chuwei approaching, her eyes turned red with anger.
Why has she become so petty?
Is it just because her son lied to her?
It's her own fault for being foolish and unable to win her husband's heart; how can you blame her son?
Now that she's using this as an excuse to keep causing trouble in the house, today we'll make her kneel down and admit her mistake.
Before Jiang Chuwei could speak, the nanny rushed over: "Madam, Prince Yu has arrived?"
"Who did you say came?" Chen Yulan asked in surprise!
She knew her husband and son's capabilities and how they could possibly associate with the Prince of Yu.
Chen Yulan was filled with unease, wondering if Ke'er had angered the prince while on duty.
"Let's go and pay our respects to the Prince!" Chen Yulan took a step and left.
"What are you doing standing here?" Chen Yulan asked, displeased.
She was actually glad that Prince Yu had come at this time.
Jiang Chuwei has been particularly difficult to deal with these past few days.
She was worried that all her dowry would really be taken away later.
With the prince here, she wouldn't dare to cause trouble, would she?
The Prince of Yu has arrived, and as the Crown Prince's wife, she should also pay her respects.
Xia Qi felt that the prince had arrived at an inopportune time, and her face clearly showed her displeasure.
The prince will only cause trouble.
Jiang Chuwei: "Let's go! It's a good thing that the prince has come."
Xia Qi: "Will he help Miss get her dowry back?"
"Yes!" The young lady's confident tone made Xia Qi happy again.
She was ready to just go and rob it.
However, everything must be done according to Miss's wishes.
Upon arriving at the front hall, Prince Yu's gaze fell upon Jiang Chuwei's face.
Seeing that she remained calm, Prince Yu breathed a slight sigh of relief.
The news brought back by Nightingale is that Miss Jiang's situation in the Marquis's mansion is not very good.
The prince had a lover hidden in his household, and after their affair was discovered, they openly eloped.
The Crown Prince's wife spends every day alone in her empty room.
Upon hearing that he was left alone in his empty room, Prince Yu felt a secret sense of joy.
However, he still maintained a cold expression.
Nightingale didn't know if she had angered the prince.
All that could be heard was the prince saying, "From now on, only send a message back if someone bullies her."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
“From now on, she will be your master, and you must put her first,” Prince Yu added.
"Yes!" This time, Nightingale was taken aback.
She thought that the prince wanted to know about the young lady, which was why he placed her by the young lady's side.
It seems that from now on, she can only report to the prince when her mistress is in danger.
Prince Yu spoke: "Miss Jiang! I've heard you possess a white jade screen, and I'd like to see it for myself. Would that be convenient?"
