“It was too late to settle last night, but don’t worry, Miss Xu, I sent someone there early in the morning.”
As he was speaking, the maid came in and reported: "The princess is here and is in the front hall. The master asked the young lady to go out and see the princess."
"That's great. Miss Xu is awake too, and the princess is here to pick her up. You should rest first. I'll ask the kitchen to prepare some food and boil some medicine. Take the medicine before you leave. It's important to take care of yourself."
"Thank you."
A hint of sympathy flashed in the maid's eyes. She was actually being sold and still helping others count money.
The system was also speechless looking at the intimacy level. It had reached 80%. It was quite simple.
Compared to this, I am a pretty good host.
Princess Yiyang was anxious, her face as cold as ice. As soon as Qiao Yujiao entered the room, she slammed the table and scolded her, "How dare you take my daughter away without permission? Do you know your crime?"
Marquis Jinghai's beard was trembling, and he didn't dare to fart.
Qiao Yujiao knelt down and cried aggrievedly, "The princess thinks I did something wrong. I accept the punishment. Please calm down, princess.
I was young and was frightened by what happened yesterday. I lost my composure. I thought about my brother who had caught a cold and injured his lungs after falling into the water while trying to save Miss Xu. I was so anxious to take care of my brother that I forgot to ask Miss Xu for her opinion.
Princess, please punish me as you please. I have no complaints. It's my fault that I was young and ignorant, and I did something bad with good intentions."
Princess Yi Yang gasped in anger. What a Qiao Yujiao! She really underestimated her. She said she admitted her mistake, but every word she said was just to excuse herself and even blamed her for being ungrateful.
Suppressing the anger in her heart, she said, "This princess doesn't mean to blame you. Please get up. Where is my daughter?"
"Miss Xu has woken up. I asked the kitchen to make some medicine. She stayed in my boudoir. I didn't sleep a wink all night, taking care of Miss Xu personally."
There are dark circles under her eyes. Qiao Yujiao has made great sacrifices for this family.
"No more eating, let's go home."
"Well, I'll give the rest to the princess. After all, it's all opened, so it's better not to waste it."
"My family doesn't lack these herbs, you can keep them."
"Oh, that's fine. My brother fell into the water and got hurt. It won't hurt to take a few more doses."
Remind her that her own brother was also injured while saving others, so don't be so ungrateful.
Princess Yi Yang's face turned pale and she asked someone to take the person away, not wanting to see Qiao Yujiao's hypocritical and calculating face.
As the people left, Qiao Yujiao smiled triumphantly. Marquis Jinghai asked worriedly, "Will the princess settle the score later?"
"She actually wants to. When she begs us, no matter how dissatisfied she is, she has to hold it in. Dad, quickly let people spread the word throughout the city. Who else would marry Xu Qianer except my brother?"
"When the time comes, it will be time for us to take the blame. Even if the dowry is small, it won't do. Humph, even a princess will have to bow down and speak well of our family."
Marquis Jinghai was secretly happy in his heart, "That's enough, we will be relatives in the future, not enemies.
But will the Chen family's affairs have any impact?"
"No, with Prince Su's Mansion and the princess here, the Chen family will not fall. Even if we abandon the Chen family, won't the princess still be the princess?
As long as Xu Qian'er crawled out of her belly, she will not let go. We are determined to leave this relative of Prince Su's Mansion."
Mrs. Wu watched the father and daughter plotting and felt a chill in her heart. A girl of twelve or thirteen should be innocent, lively and simple, but her eyes were full of calculations, which was frightening.
She didn't care anymore and turned back to her own yard, letting them do whatever they wanted.
In less than a day, the whole city knew that the prince of Marquis Jinghai and the daughter of Princess Yiyang had secretly gotten married. The rumors were always exaggerated, and in the end it was said that Xu Qianer was pregnant, her family did not agree, so they eloped and committed suicide by jumping into the moat together.
Zhao Letong has also been paying attention to this matter. He didn't expect Qiao Yujiao to be so cruel. She had plotted against Xu Qian'er. Princess Yi Yang was doomed to suffer a loss.
It seems that the heroine also has the aura of a protagonist, and there is nothing she can't do.
Chen Xinyue was thinking about the poem written by Qiao Yujiao and her way of doing things. She was sure that she was a fellow villager.
However, she could not agree with the character of this fellow villager. To put it nicely, he was worldly-wise; to put it bluntly, he would do anything to achieve his goals.
Ruining a girl's reputation just to marry her, how can you get along well with such relatives?
You try so hard to climb up, but in the end it is not yours. Don’t you feel guilty?
Chen Xinyue likes to fight for what she wants with her own abilities rather than resorting to conspiracy.
"Sister Chen, what are you thinking about?"
Zhao Letong saw that she was silent for a long time, handed her some snacks and asked.
