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

After the meal, Grand Tutor Xiao took Xiao Yunxi to the study, leaving the second son Xiao Jingchen and Lu Jingting staring at each other.

Jamel Xiao became more and more displeased when he saw Lu Jingting's uneasy look, and soon he could no longer hide his emotions.

It was the old Prince of Zhennan who ran to the palace and begged for the imperial decree to grant the marriage, not the Ningguo Marquis's mansion who was in a hurry to get her married.

As soon as he got married, he abandoned his sister and ran to the frontier. When he came back, he took the children born to his concubines by his slaves into the house, and also included them in the family tree, making them legitimate sons and daughters.

The farce that took place in Prince Zhennan's Mansion six years ago could be hidden from others, but not from the royal secret guards.

However, they were reluctant to take action because they saw that Yun Xi seemed to have some feelings for her "husband" Lu Jingting.

The emperor wants to take back the military power of the Zhennan Palace without bloodshed. There are many ways to do it, but he just doesn't want to be accused of turning against the emperor and ruthlessly killing the king's meritorious officials of the opposite sex.

According to the information sent back by the secret guards, Yun Xi seemed to value the child named Lu Zhan very much, and she might have already had the idea of ​​abandoning the father and keeping the son.

Well, the royal princess can talk about love, but she cannot get deeply involved in it, and she must not go against the emperor's will, otherwise, the only outcome is death.

In the study, Xiao Yunxi diligently ground ink for Grand Tutor Xiao, and occasionally looked up and glanced at his silent grandfather.

"Just say what you want to say. Don't look so aggrieved!" Master Xiao continued practicing calligraphy without raising his head.

Xiao Yunxi stopped what she was doing, pondered for a moment, walked to the desk, knelt solemnly, and told Grand Tutor Xiao truthfully about what had happened in the past few months and her plans.

"Don't you plan to have one yourself?" Grand Tutor Xiao looked at his little granddaughter and felt a pang of pain in his heart. His dear daughter had been wronged.

"Grandfather, rather than being a woman in the harem who tries every means to win the favor of her husband, I would rather be a free and easy princess."

"Besides, you know that my granddaughter is most afraid of pain and death. Giving birth is like going through the gates of hell. Lu Jingting is not worth my granddaughter's risk."

"Lu Zhan is a kind-hearted child with excellent talent. I wanted to bring him here to pay my respects today, but he caught a cold and I was afraid that he would pass on the disease to you, so he begged me to bring him here later."

Grand Tutor Xiao sighed, "You have always been sensible and know what you can and cannot do, so I won't say much. But remember, no matter when, where, or what situation you are in, the Ningguo Marquisate will always stand behind you!"

"Yeah!" Xiao Yunxi smiled sweetly, "I know that my grandfather loves me the most."

"You!" Grand Tutor Xiao shook his head lovingly. Never mind. If it weren't for that old fool Prince Zhennan who was seeking repayment for his kindness, his pampered granddaughter would never have married into Prince Zhennan's mansion.

"Find a time to bring Lu Zhan here. If he is a capable kid, let your second brother teach him well."

Lu Jingting is neither good at literature nor martial arts, and he even keeps a concubine to confuse his own bloodline. He is really useless.

If Lu Zhan can support the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion ten years later, Yun Xi will have completed her mission and will have given an explanation to the Emperor and the old Prince of Zhennan.

If Lu Jingting dies suddenly again, then by then, the little granddaughter can become an old lady in a royal palace and keep a few lovers for fun, or travel around, it will all go as she wishes.

As long as the Ningguo Marquis's Mansion still exists, his good daughter will always be Princess Changle, who is loved and protected.

Half an hour later, Xiao Yunxi and Lu Jingting bid farewell to Grand Tutor Xiao and left the Ningguo Marquis Mansion.

Lu Jingting used the excuse of injured legs and feet to shamelessly squeeze into Xiao Yunxi's carriage.

Looking at Xiao Yunxi's impatient expression and Xia He's posture of being ready to kick him out at any time, Lu Jingting shrank cautiously at the door.

"Princess, I never thought that my second brother's martial arts skills were so good. He kicked me off the ring in less than 20 moves."

Xiao Yunxi smiled, "Your Highness, you misunderstood. My second brother wanted to help me vent my anger, so he wanted to hit you a few more times on purpose, so he would let you make a few more moves. Otherwise, you would be sent flying in less than ten moves."

"After all, my second brother is a disciple of General Lin of the Jinwu Guards, and he also has a resounding reputation in the martial arts world."

Lu Jingting was a good speaker, but he had never had the upper hand in front of Xiao Yunxi. At this moment, he was speechless because of the shame and guilt in his heart.

Seeing Lu Jingting's pale face, tightly pursed lips, and the shame and embarrassment that could not be concealed between his brows, Xiao Yunxi smiled with satisfaction, asked Xia He to take out some snacks, and ate while watching the hustle and bustle on the street outside.

An hour later, the carriage stopped in front of the Zhennan Palace.

Xiao Yunxi ignored Lu Jingting who had been silent all the way. After getting off the carriage, she took Chunxiao and Xiahe to Shou'an Hall.

The old lady was watching Sister Yuan practicing walking when she heard the maid come to report that Xiao Yunxi came to pay her respects. She quickly told Nanny Li to prepare tea.

When she saw Lu Jingting walk in with a bruised face, she almost fainted from fright and asked hurriedly, "What happened?"

Xiao Yunxi sat aside, drinking tea comfortably.

"Don't worry, grandma. I was just practicing martial arts with my second brother Xiao Jingchen at the Ningguo Marquis' Mansion. I accidentally got it. It's nothing serious."

"What?! Why are we exchanging martial arts?" The old lady looked at Xiao Yunxi with dissatisfaction.

"Madam, there is a saying among the people, 'It is useless for a brother-in-law to beat his brother-in-law.'" Xiao Yunxi smiled and continued, "Besides, my second brother was the third place winner of the imperial examination in the 13th year of Qingfeng. How much strength can a scholar have? The prince is a general who fought on the battlefield. How could he not bear this little pain?"

"How can you say such things? Jing Ting is your husband, are you going to let others bully him like this?"

"Exchanging martial arts skills is considered bullying?" Xiao Yunxi said coldly, "Then from the wedding till now, is Lu Jingting's behavior towards me considered bullying? Is the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion bullying the Marquis of Ningguo's Mansion? "

"Madam, just because I don't say anything doesn't mean I don't know anything."

"You are well-informed, you should have heard of the Royal Secret Guards," Xiao Yunxi looked at the frightened expressions of the old lady and Lu Jingting, and continued, "The Royal Secret Guards are everywhere, and the entire Dali is under your Majesty's eyes and ears, let alone a small Zhennan Palace?"

"On the night of the wedding, the prince said, 'I don't want to marry you.' What did he think of me? And what did he think of the imperial decree?"

"If you want to marry the princess, just go and ask for her. Instead of treating her with respect after you marry her, you just ignore her. Could it be that your Majesty is a puppet controlled by the Zhennan Palace at will?"

"In the past two years, His Majesty has not been mad at you, but it is because of your hard work and contributions in guarding the border."

"Otherwise, how could you, Lu Jingting, who has no achievements and no military merits, and is not a great hero listed in the ancestral hall of the Zhennan Palace, be able to bully the princess of the royal family and not be punished?"

"My second brother did embarrass you on purpose today," Xiao Yunxi admitted openly. She glanced at Sister Yuan who was cowering on the side and said nonchalantly, "You have humiliated me and the Ningguo Marquisate for two years. Beating you up is definitely better than His Majesty taking your life."

"Stop talking!" Lu Jingting looked humiliated.

"If I don't tell you, can you just pretend these things never happened?" Xiao Yunxi finally gave him a straight face. "Although I am of noble birth and in charge of the household affairs of the palace, how many of these servants and maids didn't laugh at me and mock me behind my back?"

"Now that the world has just been settled and the government is not stable, you need to think about and solve the future of the Zhennan Palace yourself."

"The day I married into the palace, I really wanted to live a good life with you, but you never respected me or trusted me!"

"Although I am a woman, I am also a proud and righteous person. I will not tolerate your slander and trampling on me!"
