If you keep making noise, I won’t stand it anymore!

The nanny looked at the princess crying uncontrollably in her arms and quietly wiped away her tears. Ever since this extremely beautiful and always-on-top lady came into the palace, the Second Princess' life had been extremely frustrating.

Madam Yan not only used all means to monopolize the prince, but also showed mercy to the princess whenever she met her. As the legitimate daughter of the Yang family of the Ministry of Rites, the princess was angry at herself for not living up to her expectations, but she could not use those seductive tricks because she was brought up in strict etiquette since childhood. In the end, she had to avoid her and take a detour when she saw Madam Yan, which was also a strange thing for Haoyue.

Now, because of the incident in Liuzhou Prefecture, Madam Yan was punished by the Emperor and was placed under house arrest, which greatly relieved the Second Princess's anger.

"Madam, that bitch Madam Yan... I can be where I am today thanks to the eldest princess. Although this may sound a bit weird, I am the one who benefited from it, so I must thank the eldest princess very much. Can you help me think of how to thank her?" The Second Princess had tears on her face. She looked up at the madam and asked softly.

The hand that Mammy was patting her back paused imperceptibly, and she replied softly, "Let's stop crying, okay? After we pack up, we can think carefully about what to send and how to send it, ok?"

"Okay, I'll listen to you, Madam." The Second Princess smiled with red and swollen eyes.

At the same time, the Second Prince, who had comforted Madam Yan and returned to the study, was also discussing with his staff how to deal with the follow-up of this matter.

"How do you think we should deal with this matter?" The Second Prince, who had recovered from the excitement of Madam Yan's pregnancy, rubbed his face in distress and asked.

As an aide to the royal palace, Ouyang Chun looked at the master in front of him, feeling helpless and disappointed. He had always been proud of his ability to judge people, but this time he had to admit that he had made a mistake. He thought that even if the man in front of him was not smart, he would at least have his own wisdom. He did not seek great wealth, but he should have enough food and clothing. However, it seems that this is not the case at all. Alas!

"Ouyang?" The second prince, who had waited for a long time without receiving an answer, asked suspiciously, "What are you thinking about? Why are you so absorbed in it?"

"Oh, I was thinking about how to properly resolve this matter," Ouyang Chun came back to his senses and asked subtly, "What are your plans, Your Majesty?"

"Alas, we were indeed too hasty this time, and we were caught with evidence. You said that they didn't send the person back but only sent two legs. What does this mean?" Thinking of the two legs in the wooden box, the second prince shuddered.

Ouyang Chun sighed secretly. What can he do if he made a mistake? Since he had entered the Second Prince's Mansion, there was no way to escape. He could only try his best to prevent him from making any more mistakes and to make up for the loss. "In my humble opinion, Liuzhou Mansion is now in the limelight and there are naturally many eyes on it. In addition, the new head of the Sun family is also there. The princess did this to deter those people with ulterior motives from taking action again, and to vent her anger. After all, no matter how powerful she is, she is just a girl in her teens, right?"

After looking up at the prince, he continued, "Now that they have caught us, Madam Yan cannot be touched because she is pregnant. Whether it is for the sake of our Second Prince's Mansion and Madam Yan, or to shut up those people outside who are watching this matter, and to calm the anger in the palace and Liuzhou Prefecture, if we want to ease the situation..."

"What's the matter?" the second prince asked.

Ouyang Chun looked at the prince again and replied carefully, "If we want to ease the situation, both the Sun family and our palace will have to bleed a lot. After all, you should be grateful to the one who took the money from you, right?"

The Second Prince smacked his lips in pain when he heard this. He knew in his heart that this was the best and only option. Finally, he gritted his teeth and looked at Ouyang Chun and asked, "In your opinion, how much money do we need to pay to shut the mouth over there?"

"That depends on how much Madam Yan, her son and the eleven secret guards are worth in the prince's mind." Ouyang Chun answered in a hoarse voice with his head lowered.

The Second Prince gritted his teeth and cursed inwardly again, then loudly called in the butler who had been guarding the study door, and ordered him and Ouyang Chun to send 150,000 taels of silver to Liuzhou Mansion in exchange for the eleven secret guards and put an end to the matter.

Ouyang Chun and the housekeeper were also secretly shocked when they heard this number. This was nearly one-third of the amount that the palace could currently provide. After the two of them looked at each other quietly, they received the order and went out to prepare. Behind them came a sound of thunder and bang, tea bowls and benches smashing.

"Princess," the nanny walked into the main room and looked at the Second Princess who was in a daze, and winked at the maid beside her.

After everyone in the room left the room, the nanny walked quietly behind her and gently massaged her shoulders while whispering, "Just now, at the corner of the backyard, Ouyang Chun quietly stopped me and asked me to tell the princess that in order to calm down this matter, the prince just ordered him and the housekeeper to prepare 150,000 taels of compensation to the Liuzhou Mansion."

"Also, a little girl told me that the housekeeper sent a lot of things to Madam Yan."

The Second Princess turned around abruptly upon hearing this and stared at the Nanny, who looked directly into her own Princess' eyes and nodded. Obviously, through this incident, Ouyang Chun and the housekeeper had already made their own choices.

"Oh, that's interesting. Is the housekeeper so sure that Madam Yan is carrying a boy in her belly? And what makes him think that the future master of this palace is in her belly?"

Mammy paused for a moment after hearing this, and replied after careful consideration: "This is a good thing for us anyway, isn't it?"

"Well, although His Majesty has no male heir yet, I have never dared to dream of that position. I only hope that my child can grow up safely and take on the responsibility of the Second Prince's Mansion. I never thought that a little concubine would have such great ambitions. Ha, then we will just have to wait and see. Are the things I asked you to prepare ready?"

"Yes, the letters that should be sent have been sent."

"Well. There is still a long way to go, and it remains to be seen who will win..."

Shortly after lunch, Madam Yang from the Ministry of Rites sent someone to the Second Prince's Mansion to ask to see the prince, saying that Madam Yang had been ill recently and had not recovered, and she missed her granddaughter very much, so she asked the prince to be flexible and allow the Second Prince's Mansion to go back tomorrow morning.

The Second Prince, who had been reflecting on his mistakes for three months, agreed without much hesitation. At this time, he needed the Yue family to say a few good words for him in the court at an appropriate time. It would be best if he could restore his reputation and resume attending court as soon as possible.

"Butler, pick up some more gifts from the storeroom and have the princess take them over tomorrow. And by the way, apologize to the old lady. I have the emperor's order and cannot go with her to visit her."
