Marrying a rich man after rebirth: The daily life of a legitimate daughter
Chapter 8: The Prince Returns to Save Li Wanrong
"What are you afraid of? You just saw it. The prince favors the concubine in the mansion, not He Shulan." He Shuzhen's face was full of disdain.
"But we can't openly oppose He Shulan. As the Princess of a County, even though she is not favored, she still has power."
Hearing Liu Chen's words, He Shuzhen almost laughed out loud: "You are ignorant!" At this point, she deliberately raised her voice: "The power of the Prince's Mansion is still in Li Wanrong's hands. Where does she get the power?"
He Shuzhen mocked He Shulan in front of so many people. Chunxia's face turned ugly. Now that He Shulan was the princess of a county, she had the confidence to resist He Shuzhen: "It's only a matter of time before the princess of a county takes back the power to run the household. When will it be your turn as the wife of a seventh-rank official? Why are you talking too much here?"
"You..." He Shuzhen's face turned red with anger: "You are just a maid, how dare you talk to me like that."
He Shulan immediately protected Chun Xia: "My personal maid is right. You are the second lady in the He Mansion, with a noble status. Marrying a seventh-rank official, your status has not only declined a little. As the maid of the county prince's wife, it is natural for her to talk to you like this."
He Shuzhen, who had never been humiliated before, could no longer suppress her anger and threw away the chopsticks in her hand angrily: "He Shulan, you just married into the Prince's Mansion. The old lady will help you, but the Prince's heart is with Li Wanrong. You won't be favored by the Prince for a long time. I don't know how you can stay in the Prince's Mansion."
"Whether I'm living well or not, you don't need to worry about it." He Shulan stood up and said, "I'll ask the servants to put the return gift in the hall. There's something going on in the Prince's Mansion, so I'll leave first." She said hello to the people at the dinner table and left the He Mansion without looking back.
He Shuzhen was so angry that she overturned the table.
Before she got married, He Shuzhen was used to being arrogant and domineering in the mansion. The maids who served her stood aside, lowered their heads, and dared not speak.
Chen Lerong stepped forward to comfort He Shuzhen: "Why did Shulan get so angry that she got sick? It's not worth it. Before you got married, you told me that one day in the future, Liu Chen would become a high official."
At this time, He Shuzhen regained some of her rationality and said viciously: "I will just wait quietly. Soon, He Shulan will live a miserable life."
……
He Shulan held Chunxia's hand and said, "Don't talk back to He Shuzhen anymore. She's a mean person. I'm afraid she'll take revenge on you when I'm not around."
"I am just so angry. You are already the princess of a county, and He Shuzhen still dares to speak to you like this."
It was just a few sarcastic remarks, which was nothing to He Shulan, who had been managing the harem for many years: "After a while, He Shuzhen will not be able to show off her strength. You don't have to pay attention to her and let her run around."
With He Shulan protecting her, Chunxia didn't care much about offending He Shuzhen. What concerned her was Li Wanrong in the mansion: "Aunt Li is too much. She knew that today was the day you were going to return home, but she still asked the maid to call the prince away."
He Shulan has no feelings for the He family. Her biological mother died of heavy bleeding after giving birth to her. Her father ignored her and went back home just for the sake of going through the motions. He didn't care whether the prince was with her or not. "I don't know. How is Nanny Chen teaching her the rules?"
When this matter was mentioned, Chunxia's mood improved a lot and she laughed out loud: "The prince left the He residence in a hurry. Li Wanrong must have been tormented by Nanny Chen."
"Aunt Li should be punished. She is so unruly." Qiu Dong replied angrily.
He Shulan smiled but said nothing.
……
In just one hour, Li Wanrong was tortured by Nanny Chen until her whole body became limp. Just when she was about to give up, she finally heard the voice of the prince.
The prince walked into the courtyard and checked on Li Wanrong: "Where are you injured?"
Li Wanrong seized the opportunity and threw herself into the prince's arms: "I have been carrying cups all day today. Look, my hands and feet are swollen."
The prince felt very distressed and carried Li Wanrong back to his room.
Nanny Chen in the yard led the maid away.
……
"Prince, He Shulan did it on purpose. While you were accompanying her back home, she asked the head nanny in her courtyard to teach me the rules."
Li Wanrong's disturbance gave the prince a headache: "You are indeed too unruly. It is my consent that the princess arranges someone to teach you the rules."
"How can you go back on your word? When you brought me into the mansion, you promised me that you would not let me learn these pedantic rules. Have you forgotten?" Li Wanrong accused the prince.
The prince rubbed his head, but couldn't bear to scold Li Wanrong: "I didn't expect you to be so ignorant of propriety. Learning some rules will be good for you. Although you are a concubine, you are a noble concubine. If you have the chance in the future, you can follow me to attend the royal palace banquet."
Seeing that the prince was determined to do so, Li Wanrong knew that the prince was determined to let her learn the rules. She rolled her dark eyes and knew that she couldn't go against the prince. "I am now in charge of the prince's mansion. I have to manage not only the shops but also the farms in the suburbs. I don't have time to learn the rules."
The prince was silent for a while, but still did not give up on letting Li Wanrong learn the rules: "Wait until you finish the things at hand, then learn the rules."
Li Wanrong was already satisfied that she could temporarily escape the school rules, so she stopped talking: "I'll listen to you."
……
Nanny Chen walked to the gate of the courtyard and met He Shulan who had returned from the He Mansion.
Playful Chun Xia ran to Nanny Chen and said, "Mammy, how did you deal with Li Wanrong?"
Nanny Chen glanced at Chunxia, who was full of gossip, and said, "Let Dongmei and Layue tell you about Li Wanrong's learning of etiquette." She helped He Shulan walk inside and said, "Princess of the County, the County Prince values Li Yi Niang very much. If he wants to take back the power of the household, it will take a lot of effort. Although Li Yi Niang is not smart, the County Prince likes her."
Of course He Shulan knew that the reason why she asked Nanny Chen to teach Li Wanrong the rules was because Li Wanrong had spoken rudely to her last time, and she wanted to take this opportunity to teach her a lesson: "Don't rush into the matter of seizing the power of the household."
"How can you not be anxious?" Nanny Chen, who was always steady, also started to get anxious when she saw the prince's favor towards Li Wanrong.
He Shulan smiled calmly: "There's no point in being anxious. The prince likes Li Wanrong so much, he will definitely not let her give up the power to run the family. We can only use other means to snatch the power back from Li Wanrong."
"Do you have a plan?"
He Shulan thought of her previous life, when all the property of the Prince's Mansion was lost by Li Wanrong, and they had to borrow money to live. Because of Li Wanrong, the Prince's Mansion became a laughing stock in the capital, and she couldn't help but smile.
Li Wanrong not only has no talent for business, but also has no ability to manage the harem. If something goes wrong, she will naturally give up the power of the household. "We will take it one step at a time. Arrange someone to keep an eye on Li Wanrong. Report to me every detail of where she goes and what she does."
"it is good."
