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

Xiao Yunxi had just returned from Shou'an Hall when she saw Lu Jingting standing at the door of Feiyu Pavilion in a daze.

She frowned, her eyes full of annoyance.

"Sir."

Lu Jingting turned around and opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

"The old lady executed Lin Wan'er according to the Dali law, which was reasonable and justified. If the prince wants to plead for mercy, I'm afraid he has come to the wrong place."

"I'm not here to beg for mercy." Lu Jingting frowned, "I'm here to... apologize."

"What do you mean, Prince?" Xiao Yunxi glanced at Lu Jingting with amusement.

"I'm sorry for everything that has happened since our wedding."

Lu Jingting looked directly into Xiao Yunxi's eyes, "I did promise Lin Wan'er to take her as my concubine. Firstly, I took into consideration our friendship, and secondly, I thought that Lu Ze and Lu Yuan didn't respect you as much as Lu Zhan did. I wanted to find a reason to register them back under her name."

Xiao Yunxi glanced at Lu Jingting coldly, "Does the prince know what he is talking about?"

Lu Jingting paused and nodded, "I know what I'm talking about, and I know you've already guessed that Lu Ze and Lu Yuan are the children of Lin Wan'er and me."

"I also know that you have been holding back all this time, not because you care about me, but because you have other purposes."

Xiao Yunxi looked at him without saying a word.

"In fact, I asked Lin Wan'er if she would be willing to leave the capital with my two children and become a commoner if I gave up the throne. She refused."

Lu Jingting suppressed the bitterness in his heart and said, "I want to live a good life with you, but I am always indecisive, and finally it has come to this."

"What happened today..." Lu Jingting was about to continue speaking but was interrupted by Xiao Yunxi.

"There is no point in saying more. To me, the prodigal son who returns is the same as the gold that has fallen into the toilet. They are smelly and dirty, and I am disgusted by just looking at them."

"It's getting late, please go back."

Xiao Yunxi ignored Lu Jingting and went straight back to the yard, ordering people to close the gate.

Lu Jingting stood in front of the door for an unknown amount of time before leaving dejectedly.

The man in black, who had been hiding in the dark and watching the whole process, also left the Prince of Zhennan's Palace quietly.

Dingyuan Prince Mo Ruochen was leaning on the couch, his face as cold and hard as ever. He was drinking leisurely when he saw the man in black come in and report, "Greetings, Your Majesty."

The man in black reported everything that happened in the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion.

Mo Ruochen laughed when he heard Xiao Yunxi compare Lu Jingting to gold falling into a toilet.

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, as if he was smiling, but his eyes were unusually cold, and he ordered calmly: "Go check on Princess Changle Xiao Yunxi, no matter how big or small."

"Yes!" The man in black immediately took his leave.

Mo Ruochen casually turned the wine jug in his hand, his brows lowered.

How could the beloved daughter of the eldest princess marry into that spineless family in the Prince of Zhennan's mansion for no reason?

Was it the work of the one in Kunning Palace or the one on the dragon throne?

When he thought of Princess Changle, who was obviously scared to death but still stood in front of Mu Qingyun and confronted him that day, his eyes darkened.

Early the next morning, Lu Zhan came to pay his respects to Xiao Yunxi.

Xiao Yunxi ordered Chunxiao, "Ask the kitchen to prepare some steamed dumplings and Yangchun noodles."

"Yes."

Lu Zhan sat down and asked, "Mother seems to have a good appetite?"

Xiao Yunxi smiled and said, "There will be trouble next. Only when you are full can you have the strength."

She saw that Lu Zhan had dark circles under his eyes and asked, "Didn't you get enough rest last night?"

Lu Zhan lowered his head and choked up slightly, "Mother, I am stupid and fell into Lu Ze's trap. I am sorry to cause you trouble."

"Last night Lu Ze deliberately provoked me to fight. If I had endured it..."

"Then he will find another reason to make trouble," Xiao Yunxi looked at him with amusement, "Besides, aren't you just defending and taking the beating?"

Lu Zhan pursed his lips and said, "I'm afraid that I might hurt my brother and cause you trouble."

"To govern a country and bring peace to the world, one must first govern the family before thinking about the future. The conspiracies and intrigues in the mansions are no less than those in the court. How to fight back on the spot and how to fight back are all a science."

"But now your first priority is to study hard. As for the rest, don't worry about your mother."

Lu Zhan raised his head, "I am your weak spot in this mansion now, right?"

Xiao Yunxi was stunned for a moment, "Children are the weak points of their mothers."

"But my son would rather be your armor. I will never allow anyone to use me to embarrass you in the future!"

"Son, resign."

He bowed deeply, turned and left.

Xiao Yunxi was a little confused for a moment. There seemed to be murderous intent in the child's eyes just now.

Xia He asked worriedly, "Princess, do you want to send someone to keep an eye on Master Zhan?"

Xiao Yunxi pondered for a moment and said, "Let him be."

"Can..."

Xiao Yunxi raised her hand to interrupt Xia He, "Whether it's the palace or the officialdom, they are all places where people are eaten without leaving any bones. He must have the ability to protect himself, and he must also have the ability to fight back."

Xia He nodded.

In Shou'an Hall, the old lady leaned on the bed and drank medicine.

Nanny Li whispered, "Madam, the Dong family is packing up their things. They said they found a house and asked us to move out as soon as possible."

The old lady sighed, "I'm afraid the marriage with the Dong family will be broken. How is Sister Fang?"

"I sent someone to inquire about this. The eldest daughter was slapped ten times by the old lady of the Dong family. She was confined to her room to copy the "Female Rules" and "Female Regulations". Moreover, it seems that the old lady of the Dong family wants to give her son-in-law a second wife."

"what?!"

The old lady was so anxious that she accidentally knocked over the medicine bowl.

Nanny Li quickly told the maid to pack up her things, and she hurried forward to calm the old lady down, "Old lady, please calm down first."

"How can I calm down! Although the second wife is also a concubine, she is also a noble concubine who will be included in the family tree. She can be promoted to the first wife after the death of the first wife. The Dong family is thinking of divorcing her!"

Ruan nodded in agreement, "It's because of this 'cousin' who doesn't observe the virtues of a woman. I'm afraid the Dong family will divorce Fang'er on this ground."

Nanny Li looked at Ruan helplessly and thought: If you can't speak, just don't say anything. Do you really want to piss off the old lady to death?

"Ahem... ahem..." the old lady gnashed her teeth and asked Madam Li, "Where is that bitch?"

"She's still locked up in the woodshed. I asked the maid to beat her up to vent my anger!"

Ruan was no longer as amiable as she had been when Lin Wan'er first entered the mansion.

"What's the point of beating her?" The old lady ordered the maid to help her up, "Help me to the guest house."

We must not let the Dong family go like this.

Ruan was very afraid of Madam Dong. "Mother, it's useless to go there. The old lady from the Dong family is too arrogant and unreasonable."

The old lady frowned, "In the final analysis, we are in the wrong. Dong Weixian's future depends on the Ningguo Mansion, and there can't be any dirt on him. Now there is a dirty cousin in our Zhennan Palace, and she has bullied Xiao Yunxi. Of course, the Dong family must draw a clear line with us."

Ruan gritted her teeth and said, "Then let's deal with Lin Wan'er first, then let Jing Ting apologize to Xiao Yunxi, and then let them go together to persuade the Dong family."

Nanny Li glanced at Ruan. It was rare for the princess to be smart, but she was thinking too simply and shamelessly.

The old lady thought carefully about Ruan's words and said, "Madame Li, go to Feiyu Pavilion in person and ask the princess to come over. Tell her that I have something to discuss... No, I want to ask for a favor."

Nanny Li hesitated for a moment, then immediately bowed and left.

"Mother, although we were at fault first, it was Lin Wan'er who tricked Jing Ting into lighting the musk. Is it necessary for us to be so servile to Xiao Yunxi?"

The old lady asked coldly, "Lin Wan'er is a weak woman, even if she used musk, can't Jing Ting break free?"

"Didn't we help to adopt Lu Ze and Lu Yuan to Xiao Yunxi?"

"Didn't we keep the mother and her two children in the countryside for many years without telling Xiao Yunxi?"

"If we don't humble ourselves now, are we going to wait for Xiao Yunxi to come to the throne room and cry for mercy?"

"You must appease Xiao Yunxi before the eldest princess returns to the capital, otherwise you will be whipped!"

"You don't have only Jingting as your son, and the eldest brother doesn't have only Jingting as his son."

"If Jing Ting's position as the crown prince is abolished, she, Xiao Yunxi, will remain a high and mighty princess until her death, but you may not necessarily become a distinguished old lady of the palace in the future!"

Ruan lowered her head after hearing what the old lady said and dared not speak anymore.

The eldest princess is the most fierce woman in the Dali period!
