Fu Yurou's face instantly darkened as she watched the boxes being carried away.

That's one hundred thousand taels. She has never seen so much money in her life. Ye Xingchen didn't come earlier or later, but came at this time. It must be intentional.

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo was a very shrewd person. She guessed what he had just by taking a glance at Fu Yurou's reaction and Prince Mo's expression.

"Princess Mo, thank you for saving my son. This one hundred thousand taels is my son's life-saving money. You deserve it. Prince Mo should not allow anyone to embezzle or hide it privately." The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo deliberately looked at Cang Tingchen.

Cang Tingchen, who originally had a bad face, suddenly became angry: "What do you mean, Madam Duke? I don't even care about a mere 100,000 taels."

"Prince Mo is magnanimous, and the prince is awe-inspiring. Naturally, he will not take the 100,000 taels seriously, but you can't be sure that someone will be jealous of the money." The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo deliberately looked at Fu Yurou.

Fu Yurou was immediately annoyed: "Madam, look at me for what I am doing. I will naturally not do such a thing."

"Since the concubine said so, I feel relieved." The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo turned around and followed Ye Xingchen.

After returning to his own courtyard, Ye Xingchen personally poured a cup of tea for the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo: "Madam, have a sip of tea to moisten your throat."

"Thank you, Princess. I just can't stand green tea." The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo was not polite. She took it and drank it directly with her head tilted back.

The Duke of Zhenguo was a little embarrassed: "You are so quick-witted. If you offend King Mo, you will suffer the consequences."

"So, the Duke of Zhenguo is afraid of King Mo?" Ye Xingchen asked back.

"How could I be afraid of Prince Mo?" The Duke of Zhenguo was too proud to admit it.

"Come on, you're just trying to be stubborn." The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo exposed him.

"Can't you give me some face?"

"Face is of no use. Can it be eaten? I'm sorry to embarrass you, Princess." The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo said generously.

Ye Xingchen smiled calmly: "No, it's a kind of happiness for you to bicker like this. Since you two came in person, I will give each of you a peace amulet."

The Duke of Zhenguo and his wife took it immediately and put it in their pockets like a treasure: "Thank you, Princess. I will give this amulet to Tianming when I go back. He will be safe and sound now."

All a mother wants is for her children to be safe and healthy.

"In that case, I'll give you one more." Ye Xingchen handed over another one.

The Duke's wife was extremely excited: "Thank you, Princess. You are our benefactor. From now on, whenever you need anything, the Duke's Mansion will definitely do its best to help you."

"good."

Here, Mo Tingchen was furious and threw the teacup on the table to the ground: "Ye Xingchen, you damn woman, don't think that you have a backer just because you saved the people in the Zhenguo Mansion. I don't even take him seriously as a Zhenguo Duke."

"Your Highness is right. How could the Princess disregard your dignity? She used to listen to you the most. Your Highness, do you feel that the Princess is a little strange, as if she has become a different person?" Fu Yurou expressed her doubts.

Cang Tingchen frowned. Yes, Ye Xingchen used to be the most obedient person. If he told her to go east, she would never dare to go west.

Since when did she start going against me?

It seemed that ever since I married Fu Yurou and asked her to watch the ceremony that night, she has been at odds with me in every way.

“If it was in the past, she would definitely give the money to the prince without saying anything, but now she has someone carry it away, clearly to save the prince’s face.

How can a woman like Princess need money? The palace has everything, and the prince never treats her badly. Rou'er is worried that she will be cheated." Fu Yurou continued.

Cang Tingchen's expression became even uglier. "Since I said I would not embezzle her money, I will not take it. Otherwise, Madam Zhenguo will think that I care about the 100,000 taels. Ye Xingchen always gives me the best. Why are you in such a hurry? I am waiting for her to give it to me personally."

Seeing the prince so confident, Fu Yurou thought of what Ye Xingchen had said before, and wondered in her heart whether she should tell the prince that Ye Xingchen didn't take him seriously at all.

The prince was very concerned about his reputation. If she said this, it would definitely make him furious, so Fu Yurou did not say much.

"Why did you suddenly say today that Ye Xingchen is not at home?" Cang Tingchen looked at me suspiciously.

Fu Yurou was startled when she was suddenly asked. Facing the prince's cold eyes, Fu Yurou took a deep breath and pretended to be calm.

"Your Highness, Rou'er is thinking that everything in the palace belongs to you, including the princess. As a woman, she doesn't know how to manage money, so it's better to leave it to you.

After all, the auction will be held in a few days, and the prince always wins the first prize every year. Rouer's family is poor and she can't help the prince in any way, so she said so.

If the prince doesn't like Rouer's behavior, Rouer will never say it again. Rouer is doing it for the prince." Fu Yurou felt very aggrieved, her eyes reddened.

Cang Tingchen suddenly felt distressed and pulled her into his arms: "This prince knows that you care about me. You are the only one in the whole palace who is devoted to me. How can this prince bear to blame you? I will stay in your yard tonight."

Fu Yurou's eyes flashed with success, and she leaned closer to Prince Mo's arms: "Your Highness is the best to Rouer."

In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the auction. Fu Yurou got up early in the morning, dressed up carefully, and followed Prince Mo to Fuyuan Pavilion.

Fuyun Pavilion is the auction hall used by the royal family, and those who come to participate are all dignitaries and prominent families in the capital.

Early in the morning, there was a lot of traffic in front of Fuyuan Pavilion, and it was very lively.

At the corner not far away, Ye Xingchen watched Cang Tingchen and Fu Yurou walk in with an indifferent and cold expression.

Did she think that she could be locked up in solitary confinement? Ye Xingchen directly asked Yu to bring her over the wall. Today was such a lively day, how could she be absent to disrupt things?

Ye Xingchen watched the servant at the door of Fuyun Pavilion checking the identities one by one. Ye Xingchen wondered whether he should get a fake invitation.

"Ye Xingchen, why are you here?"

When Ye Xingchen turned around, he saw Yan Tianming walking towards him with a servant not far away.

"He can walk now, it seems he has recovered well." Ye Xingchen replied indifferently.

Yan Tianming's face tensed, and after hesitating for a moment, he came over: "My mother asked me to thank you for saving my life."

"No need. The Duke's wife has already given me 100,000 taels. I am now even with the Yan family."

"The one hundred thousand taels were given by my mother. It has nothing to do with me. Although I don't like you, you saved me after all. If you need anything, I will definitely help you." Yan Tianming said awkwardly and was about to leave.

"I want to enter Fuyuan Pavilion, can you let me in?"

Yan Tianming was immediately proud: "Fuyuan Pavilion has my Yan family joining us, so of course it can be done. I will take you in now."

"That's great." Ye Xingchen followed Yan Tianming and left.

In the carriage not far away, Cang Boyi looked at the backs of the two people with a cold expression. His eyes as deep as the sea were dark and deep, and the hand holding the teacup slightly tightened.

"Your Majesty, it seems we are a step too late. Princess Mo has left with Yan Tianming."
