It really was a poisonous snake.
"Where is she?" The old princess asked through gritted teeth after giving herself a lot of mental preparation.
She couldn't believe that after Zheng Qiaoshu had done such a terrible thing to her, the people of the Prince An's mansion would still let her leave.
She wouldn't be able to swallow her anger if she couldn't get an explanation from her.
“Mother, she is in the prison, awaiting her fate,” Xu Heming said truthfully.
“I’ll take you there once Mother has recovered,” Xu Heming added.
"Lock her up first. I, this old woman, will deal with her myself!" the old princess said viciously.
"I understand, Mother. Don't worry, once you've recovered, she'll be at your disposal." Xu Heming deliberately mentioned that the old princess should recover.
"I owe my life to Lord Li and Steward Liu. Remember to thank them properly later." The old princess was a person who clearly distinguished between gratitude and resentment, and she naturally felt grateful to those who were kind to her.
As for those who want her dead, she won't let them get away with it either.
Yao and Li Zhiwei were in the carriage on their way back to the mansion.
After holding back for a long time, Madam Yao finally looked at her daughter and asked, "What matters did you handle for the Prince An's residence today?"
What Madam Yao actually wanted to say was that since her daughter had not yet married into the Prince An's mansion, the affairs of the Prince An's mansion should be handled by them. Otherwise, if her daughter went there and things were not handled properly, it would damage her daughter's reputation.
"Qingshi accidentally bumped into a girl who said she was a princess from the Zhennan Prince's Mansion. That princess was tall and strong. How could a little kid like Qingshi bump into her?" Li Zhiwei thought it was a joke and told Yao Shi about it.
"How did you handle it?" Yao frowned, not expecting the other party to have such a powerful background.
"I asked Doctor Zhang to take her pulse, but she refused and demanded three thousand taels in compensation. Before I could deal with it, the Prince returned, and my daughter was no longer needed," Li Zhiwei said truthfully.
"From now on, you should decline such matters." Madam Yao sighed, relieved to hear that Xu Heming was handling it personally.
"Mother, don't worry, I know what I'm doing," Li Zhiwei quickly replied, knowing that Madam Yao meant well.
“Wei’er, it’s not that I don’t want you to manage things, but rather, your current status is inappropriate,” Madam Yao sighed, speaking earnestly to her daughter.
Even in Li'an County, there were still many intricate and complicated relationships among the women of different families, let alone in the capital city.
Presumably, there are just as many sordid things happening in the backyard.
Mrs. Yao was only worried that her daughter would suffer a loss.
"Wei'er, have you thought about how you will get along with the women of noble families if you marry into the Prince An's mansion?" Madam Yao asked her daughter with a serious expression.
Li Zhiwei looked at Yao Shi with a puzzled expression. She had never considered this question before, after all, Yao Shi in her previous life had never said such a thing to her.
She also never went out to socialize with those ladies and young women.
If she could start over, she would only want to escape marrying into the Marquis of Ru'an's family. She wouldn't object to the marriage with Prince An either. However, she had never considered how to get along with the noble families in the future.
Li Zhiwei looked at Yao Shi with a bewildered expression, not understanding why Yao Shi would ask her such a question out of the blue.
“The old princess is a gentle mother-in-law, but, Wei’er, the Prince An’s mansion is not like our small family. They must have more rules than we do. You will be the Princess An in the future, and you will have to deal with many people and things. Have you thought about these things?” Madam Yao wished she could break down the issues into small pieces and tell her daughter one by one.
Li Zhiwei shook her head in confusion; she had never thought about these questions before.
In fact, socializing wasn't even part of her plan.
