After the rebirth of the Marquis's mistress, she smiled at the scumbag's family

"Princess, it's bad. The old lady wants to open the ancestral hall and punish the prince according to family rules." Yuanyang ran into Feiyu Pavilion breathlessly and knelt down to Xiao Yunxi as soon as she entered the door.

Xia He was surprised and said, "I have been in the palace for more than two years, and this is the first time I heard that the family rules are going to be enforced. Sister Yuanyang, what are the family rules of the palace?"

Yuanyang was choked by Xia He's question, his eyes widened and he didn't know how to respond.

Xiao Yunxi didn't say anything and continued to feed the fish.

I'm afraid Lu Jingting has said something stupid or done something stupid again, which is why the old lady is like this.

The annual expenditure of Jingxi Manor accounts for nearly 40% of the mansion's expenditure. The old lady has been dissatisfied for a long time, but due to her reputation, she dare not do anything openly.

Lu Jingting was really willing to sacrifice everything for Lin Wan'er, and even forgot to be grateful.

Well, for someone who can do such a stupid thing as passing a concubine off as the legitimate heir, there is nothing he wouldn't do!

Xiao Yunxi scattered the fish food and said calmly, "Let's go to the front yard."

She took Chunxiao and Xiahe and walked out. Seeing this, Yuanyang quickly got up and followed them.

In the front yard, Zhang San and his group cried out loudly, "This is unjust! The prince wants to kill us!"

A group of servants stood nearby holding boards, not knowing whether to listen to the prince and give Zhang San and the others a beating, or to listen to the old lady and give the prince a beating.

The old lady was so angry that she beat her chest and stamped her feet, and she was so anxious that tears were about to come out.

Lu Jingting stiffened his neck, knelt straight in front of the old lady, pointed at Butler Chen and yelled, "What, my words are useless?!"

Butler Chen wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied, "Sir, the princess said that she would treat him with courtesy..."

Lu Jingting sneered, "The surname of this Zhennan Palace is Lu, not Xiao! Who is your master?"

Butler Chen bowed and persuaded, "Prince, calm down! Prince, calm down!"

In the end, he didn't dare to go against Lu Jingting, so he had to wave his hand and the servants raised the boards towards Zhang San and others.

"Wait!"

Xiao Yunxi walked quickly into the yard, glanced at Lu Jingting coldly, stepped forward to pay her respects to the old lady first, then turned back to comfort Zhang San and others with a few words.

Lu Jingting laughed in anger, stood up suddenly, and looked at Xiao Yunxi with a cold face.

She didn't even bother to care about her husband before entering the house, and then smiled so gently to a group of strangers.

Xiao Yunxi frowned and questioned him, "Why did you punish them, my lord?!"

Lu Jingting snorted coldly and said, "How can we not punish a bunch of slaves who bully their masters?"

Xiao Yunxi also laughed out of anger.

"What are you laughing at? Did I say something wrong? Whether the reward is big or small is the master's gift. How can we allow a group of servants to make a fuss?"

Xiao Yunxi had a serious face and said calmly, "Your Highness has been at the border for a few years. Has the dirt and sand got into your brain?"

"You! Okay, okay, okay, I want to see what else you have to say!"

Xiao Yunxi didn't even look at Lu Jingting and continued, "They once served under my grandfather and went through life and death with him. Some of them broke their legs to save the old prince, and some broke their hands for the prince."

"Many years ago, during the battle at Yannan Pass, Zhang San and his men risked their lives to rescue the old prince. They were hit by three arrows from the enemy and lost an eye and an arm."

"Now, their sons, nephews and nieces are still serving in the army, risking their lives for Dali."

"Besides, they are not slaves sold by the palace. It is the old prince who shows sympathy and sets aside a manor to support them. It is the old prince's gratitude to them!"

Hearing this, Lu Jingting calmed down. He was so angry at the time that he didn't think too much about it. Now thinking about it, he was indeed not thoughtful enough.

The old lady had nothing to say. Lu Jingting had indeed done something wrong.

"Now, you are going to cut off their food and stop their medicine just to support a foreign 'cousin' who is not sure how distantly related you are. How can you bear it?!"

"It's not too much to call you ungrateful and heartless!"

Lu Jingting was given a fierce look by Xiao Yunxi, and he was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick.

The old lady also recovered and asked hurriedly, "Yunxi, Jingting knows he is wrong. What do you think we should do now?"

The old lady was also reluctant to support these useless people, but she endured it due to the old prince's orders and his reputation for kindness.

Now that Lu Jingting had opened the door, she also wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of her hands and get these burdens as far away as possible.

Xiao Yunxi naturally understood what the old lady was thinking, but she really couldn't bear to see these veterans suffer in the future.

"Madam, I do have a good idea, but I'm afraid you and the prince don't agree."

"any solution?"

"My uncle the Emperor once gave me a farm at the foot of Phoenix Mountain. There is a forest there. I can send them there and give them farmland and forests to manage. I will pay them monthly. All expenses will be paid from the harvest of the farm."

"As for their injuries, I will go to the palace to report to the Queen Mother and ask that the cost of the doctor and medicine be charged to the Royal Charity Hall's account."

When the old lady heard that the palace no longer had to pay, she was very happy.

Zhang San and the others looked at each other and were also moved.

As for Lu Jingting, he still had a sullen face and refused to speak.

"Will this... work?" The old lady looked at Xiao Yunxi hesitantly.

"Why not?" Xiao Yunxi smiled and continued, "First, I am the Crown Prince's Consort of the Zhennan Palace, so I naturally have the responsibility to consider the palace."

"Secondly, it is true that Zhang San and his friends were wrong in making unreasonable noises, but in the final analysis, it was because we did not properly accommodate them that things got into this state, so we naturally have to find ways to resolve it."

"Third, they shed blood and sacrificed their lives for Dali. It can be said that without them, we wouldn't have the peaceful and stable life we ​​have today. As the Princess of Dali, I should be grateful. How can I let these soldiers shed tears after they shed blood?!"

After hearing this, several of the dozen men burst into tears. They fought on the battlefield without fear of death, and never complained when they were forced to leave due to injuries or illnesses.

But with all these injuries, it’s hard for him to even support himself, let alone his wife and children.

They didn't want to stay in the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion, but they really had no other choice.

Zhang San led everyone to bow deeply to Xiao Yunxi, choking with tears and saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your sympathy!"

Xiao Yunxi, along with two maids, saluted the dozen or so veterans with tears streaming down their faces, with a look of admiration on their faces, "I am the one who should say thank you."

"Thank you all for fighting for Dali on the battlefield!"

"Thank you all for saving the old prince's life several times!"

Lu Jingting was shocked when he saw Xiao Yunxi like this.

Royal ladies have always been high and mighty, pampered and domineering.

Unexpectedly, Princess Xiao Yunxi of Changle is not only beautiful and generous, but also sensible and righteous...

Such a generous and beautiful woman turned out to be his legal wife whom he had neglected for more than two years!

Lu Jingting suddenly felt mixed emotions.
