"You------" Fu Yurou was about to curse, but when she saw Tang Yu raising his hand, she instantly became timid.

Her cheeks felt a burning pain. If she was slapped again and her face was disfigured, how could she compete for favor?

As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood. She will settle the score with Ye Xingchen later.

"Please forgive me, sister. It was my fault for speaking without restraint and offending you. I was ignorant and I will never do it again." Fu Yurou begged for mercy immediately.

Ye Xingchen raised his eyebrows and looked at her: "You are sensible. Next time, it won't be a slap. If you call me sister again, I don't mind cutting off your tongue."

Fu Yurou's face looked extremely ugly, but she was more afraid that Ye Xingchen would really cut off her tongue.

"Please forgive me, Princess. I will never do that again. But you brought so many women back to the palace. They tried all kinds of ways to seduce the prince, and the prince will only dislike you even more." Fu Yurou said she was submissive, but she deliberately picked on Ye Xingchen's weaknesses just to provoke her.

"Oh, then what do you think?" Ye Xingchen asked deliberately.

"Of course, we have to drive them all out, leaving no one behind. Only when they are all gone can the prince see the princess."

Ye Xingchen raised a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth: "If they all leave, the prince will not belong to this princess at all, but to you. How does it feel to have so many women suddenly come to compete for your favor?"

Fu Yurou's face turned black with anger. As expected, Ye Xingchen did it on purpose. She pretended to be considerate and said, "Why do you say that, Princess? As long as you and I join forces, they won't be able to make any waves at all."

"Why should I join forces with you?" Ye Xingchen asked coldly.

"Because you like the prince. You once encountered robbers and were almost in trouble. It was the prince who saved you. Have you forgotten?" Fu Yurou mentioned what happened that year.

Ye Xingchen raised his eyebrows, and Fu Yurou reminded herself that it was Prince Mo who bribed those robbers and deliberately acted out a hero-saving-a-beauty scene in front of the original owner, coaxing the original owner into marrying Prince Mo.

"I indeed haven't forgotten. The prince saved me, so I will give him a big gift. No matter how much those women compete for favor, I am the Princess Mo appointed by His Majesty himself, but you are different, so you'd better show your best skills. Tang Yu, please see you off!" Ye Xingchen was too lazy to talk nonsense with her.

Seeing that Ye Xingchen was unmoved, Fu Yurou left in frustration.

"Princess, the concubine just now obviously wanted to use you as a gun. Fortunately, you didn't agree to her." Qingluo said worriedly.

"Silly girl, am I that stupid?" Ye Xingchen joked.

"The princess is the wisest."

Three days later, early in the morning, the Duke of Zhenguo and his wife came to the Regent's Palace together.

The menacing look frightened the gatekeeper.

When Fu Yurou heard that the Duke of Zhenguo and his family of three were coming, she immediately took her maid to Prince Mo's study. Seeing Luo Bing grinding nearby, Fu Yurou put away the jealousy and hatred in her eyes and looked extremely anxious.

"Your Highness, something bad has happened. The Duke of Zhenguo and his wife have come to visit. Could it be that the princess failed to save the children a few days ago?" Fu Yurou said.

Luo Bing, who was grinding, frowned slightly and said nothing.

Prince Mo Cang Tingchen's face was filled with rage: "This damn Ye Xingchen is only able to stir up trouble. Now that the Duke of Zhenguo has come to my door, I must divorce her today." After saying that, he followed Fu Yurou to the front hall.

When the Duke of Zhenguo saw Prince Mo coming, he immediately bowed and said, "This old minister greets Prince Mo."

"Greetings, Prince Mo." The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo also said.

"Duke and Madam, there's no need to be so polite. I wonder what brings you here?" Cang Tingchen asked.

"We are here to look for the princess. I wonder if she is in your house?" Zhenguogong spoke with an unhappy look on his face.

That was one hundred thousand taels. He and his wife borrowed money from several relatives and colleagues to get the total.

It hurts my heart and my body.

"Didn't sister save the adults a few days ago? If sister has done anything wrong or been negligent, Rouer will apologize to the Duke and Madam on her behalf." Fu Yurou said considerately.

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo immediately turned pale: "What you said is not right, concubine. How can a concubine like you represent the principal wife? Is this the rule of Prince Mo's Mansion? I am really enlightened."

Fu Yurou's face was extremely ugly. Last time, the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo humiliated her by calling her a concubine. Today, she did it again. It was really abominable.

"Your Highness, Rou'er just doesn't want anyone to ruin your reputation and the palace's reputation." Fu Yurou's eyes were red, and she said with great grievance.

Cang Tingchen was extremely distressed, and turned around to glare at the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo: "How dare you! This is Prince Mo's mansion, not a place where anyone can act wildly. Is this your family tradition, Duke of Zhenguo?"

The Duke of Zhenguo shuddered with fear: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. It's all because of my wife's ignorance. She has been worried about her son's safety these days and her mind is a little confused. Please don't bear grudges and don't bother with her. Is Princess Mo here? We are here to see her."

"I'm not wrong. She comes out here and makes trouble before things are clear. She is prominent everywhere. The princess saved my son, and my master and I are here to thank her." The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo said fluently.

She disliked Fu Yurou last time. If she had been more obedient, how would she have had the chance to argue with her?

"Thank you?" Fu Yurou was so shocked that she didn't even bother to pretend to be aggrieved.

Cang Tingchen was also confused: "Duke Zhenguo, did Ye Xingchen really save someone?"

"Your Majesty, Princess Mo did save my son." The Duke of Zhenguo replied respectfully

"How is this possible?" Cang Tingchen was completely shocked.

How could this happen? He had already prepared the divorce letter, but he was told that Ye Xingchen had saved someone.

"These are our thank-you gifts to the princess, one hundred thousand taels. My master and I will deliver them in full." said the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo.

The servants carried in a dozen boxes and opened the lids. The boxes of gold, silver, treasures, jade and antiques dazzled Fu Yurou's eyes.

Cang Tingchen was even more shocked when he saw the gold and silver: "Ye Xingchen asked you for 100,000 taels?"

"Yes, one hundred thousand taels will guarantee my son's lifelong safety. I don't know where the princess is. I want to thank her in person." The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo asked.

Fu Yurou's eyes flickered: "It's really unfortunate today that the princess is not in the mansion. When she comes back, Rouer will sue her."

Cang Tingchen glanced at Fu Yurou with his cold eyes, but did not expose her: "It's rare for the Duke of Zhenguo and his wife to come to the palace, why don't you come in and have a cup of tea."

For the sake of the 100,000 taels, Cang Tingchen's tone became much more polite.

"Since the princess is not at home, my master and I will not disturb you." said the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo.

"I'm taking my leave now." After saying this, the Duke of Zhenguo left with his wife. However, just after they took a few steps, they saw a familiar figure coming towards them.

Ye Xingchen was standing outside the yard, and it seemed like she had been standing there for a long time. Cang Tingchen looked extremely embarrassed, and it was unknown how long she had been looking at him.

"Princess, didn't you say you were not at home?" asked the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo in surprise.

Ye Xingchen looked at Fu Yurou inside. Seeing her evasive gaze, Ye Xingchen guessed that she wanted Cang Tingchen to swallow the 100,000 taels.

"I have been in the mansion the whole time, but no one notified me. I heard the maid in the yard say you were here, so I rushed over. Since the Duke's wife has sent 100,000 taels, someone carry those boxes back to my yard." Ye Xingchen snorted coldly.

"Yes." Tang Yu and others immediately walked over, carrying the boxes and left.
