There was silence in the room, and the princess could not hide her happiness and joy on her face.

The concubines dared not even utter a sound.

The toffee moved his lips several times but no sound came out.

Xu Yan'er nervously looked at the concubine's expression.

Things have come to this point, and she actually doesn't want to persist anymore.

The prince is willing to spend all his savings on her and give her exclusive favor. She already has a higher status than the first wife.

As long as she can hold on to the prince's heart tightly, why should she be afraid of Ji Chuhe?

"Yan'er was raised by me. I didn't want her to cling to the powerful. But An'er and she have developed feelings for each other. I will never allow her to become a concubine." Concubine Xu said firmly.

"Grandma!" Xiao Yan'an was anxious.

"An'er, it's not that grandma doesn't want to help you. What your mother said is that Yan'er's background is indeed humble and she is not worthy of the status of the prince's wife. Then let her marry someone of equal status and become his wife." Concubine Xu still wanted to put the blame on the princess.

Whether Xu Yan'er is a wife or a concubine has become a part of the game between the Concubine Dowager and the Princess.

Of course, the Toffee cannot compromise easily.

"It's such a pity that Her Majesty the Concubine has made such arrangements. It's such a pity that the princess has failed to fulfill her lovers' kindness." Ji Chuhe sighed with pretended regret.

After hearing this sound, Concubine Xu felt pain in her chest.

Xiao Yan'an turned and looked at Xu Yan'er, "Yan'er, what do you think?"

Xu Yan'er met Xiao Yan'an's gaze and tears started flowing before she could say a word.

"Don't just cry! Speak!" The princess couldn't help but yelled, cry, cry, just cry! "Xu Yan'er, are you willing to be with the prince? This is your lifelong happiness, you decide for yourself."

Xiao Yan'an anxiously waited for Xu Yan'er's answer.

Xu Yan'er walked up to the Concubine Dowager and knelt down. "Yan'er was raised by the Concubine Dowager. Yan'er's marriage is entirely up to the Concubine Dowager."

Xiao Yan'an thought he had heard it wrong and shook his head in disbelief.

"Okay, okay! Xu Yan'er, you refused it yourself! From now on, if you want to be the prince's concubine again, you must kneel in front of the palace and beg me!" The princess was furious.

"Yan'er, are you really willing to marry someone else?" Xiao Yan'an pulled Xu Yan'er, looking hurt.

Xu Yan'er lowered her head and cried, as if she was the most wronged person in the room.

Xiao Yan'an suddenly shook off Xu Yan'er's arm, turned around and ran out.

"Yan'er, you should get up too. You are the child I raised. I will carefully select your marriage and give you a good future."

"Yes." Xu Yan'er slowly stood up and stood behind Concubine Xu.

Looking at the direction where the prince ran, he felt a sense of unknown fear in his heart.

"He'er, serve tea to Her Majesty the Concubine." The princess reminded. This was the main reason she came today.

Concubine Xu must drink this cup of tea.

Ji Chuhe immediately took the tea handed over by the maid and offered it to Concubine Xu, "Serve tea to Her Majesty the Concubine."

Concubine Xu suppressed her anger, took the cup of tea, took a sip, and casually threw a gold hairpin to Ji Chuhe.

"Thank you, Concubine Dowager." Ji Chuhe took it calmly and turned to offer tea to the princess and the prince.

The rewards given to her by the princess and the prince were all prepared by the princess in advance and were already very valuable. However, the princess suddenly decided to add another five thousand taels of silver notes.

When looking at the thick stack of banknotes, Ji Chuhe's eyes lit up.

Nothing is easier than collecting real money!

Sent, sent!

"Thank you, Father, and Mother, for the reward!"

The concubines were stunned by these rewards. They had never seen so much money in their lives!

It seems that the princess has spent a lot of money to anger the concubine this time.

The counterfeit Ji Chuhe got a great bargain.

"Get up. From now on, you are the master of this palace. Your mother is old, so you have to learn how to manage the household and share her worries." The princess gave another instruction.

"Yes." Ji Chuhe responded obediently.

Everyone was shocked again.

The princess also wants to hand over the power of the family to Ji Chuhe?

"If there is nothing else, we will not disturb Her Majesty the Dowager. We will take our leave first." The princess stood up and walked out holding Ji Chuhe's hand.

The rest of the people also stood up and left.

In an instant, only Concubine Xu and Xu Yan'er were left in the palace.

"Do you feel wronged that I don't agree with you becoming the prince's concubine?" asked the concubine.

"Your Highness, you are always thinking about Yan'er. I am grateful to you so much that I don't know how to feel wronged." Xu Yan'er responded quickly.

"It's good that you think so. As long as the prince's heart is with you, that fake girl won't be the prince's wife for long!" A gleam of light flashed in Concubine Xu's eyes.

Xu Yan'er also suppressed the emotions in her heart.

Yes, although being the prince's concubine is a safer choice now, why not give it a try?

Besides, she has the support of the concubine.

As long as the impostor Ji Chuhe is driven away, the princess will be left with nothing to do.

The prince is determined to marry her, does the princess really want to break up with the prince?

The position of the Crown Prince’s Wife can only be hers!

……

After Ji Chuhe and the princess left Changning Palace, they passed by the garden and strolled around it.

"Where is the prince?" the princess asked Nanny Si.

"My princess, the prince went to a restaurant outside. I think he went to drown his sorrows in wine."

"How could I give birth to such a..." The princess gritted her teeth, but still couldn't utter the words "coward".

"Mother, actually, I think the prince is kind-hearted and loyal." Ji Chuhe spoke slowly.

The princess's expression softened a little.

After all, he is her own son. She can scold him however she wants. If others dare to say anything bad about him, she will definitely feel uncomfortable.

"It's all because of that bitch Xu Yan'er who has bewitched the prince! She was asked to be his concubine, but she dared to refuse!" When the princess thought of this, she wanted to kick Xu Yan'er out of the palace.

"Mother, Xu Yan'er's refusal to be a concubine is actually a worse move. I feel that she will never give up the prince and marry someone else. It's just that Concubine Xu is competing with you. As long as we take the initiative, they will have no choice but to compromise. At that time, they will have to kneel down and beg you to let her enter the mansion as a concubine."

The princess turned her head and glanced at Ji Chuhe, then held her hand and patted it gently, "With you by my side, mother is much happier!"

"Mother, the key figure in our competition with Concubine Xu is the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince is still young and has too little experience. Xu Yan'er is the only one in his world now. His joys, sorrows, anger and happiness are all tied to Xu Yan'er. Naturally, we think that he is being led by the nose by Xu Yan'er. Why not take this opportunity to let the Crown Prince gain some experience."

"That's a good idea! He'er, where do you think is the best place for him to go for training?"

"The army is the best place to hone your mind. Right now, the seven counties under the jurisdiction of my father's fiefdom are recruiting new troops, so I'll let the prince take on this task."

The fiefdom is only recruiting new troops for show. How can it really dare to recruit soldiers? Wouldn't it arouse the emperor's suspicion?

Being in charge of recruiting soldiers is a sinecure. Let the prince visit the seven counties under his jurisdiction. This will not only allow him to walk around and relax, but also serve as a form of exercise.

"Okay, I'll do as you say. But he may not be willing to go."

"I think there is some hope that my daughter-in-law can persuade the prince." Ji Chuhe took on the task.

"Okay! If he agrees to take on this mission, Mother will reward you handsomely!"

"Thank you, concubine."

"Tomorrow morning, you will come to my palace to learn about the general affairs of the palace."

"Yes." Ji Chuhe responded immediately.

……

Back at Liuhua Palace, all the rewards Ji Chuhe received today were neatly placed on the table.

She took the stack of banknotes in her hand and counted them again and again.

A full five thousand taels!

All this money is hers!

On the second day after she married into the palace, she possessed wealth that she had never had in her previous life. Her life was so wonderful.

If she could gain a foothold in the palace and wait until Shen Congjing and Ji Qingyuan paid the price they deserved, she would definitely have a considerable fortune in her hands!

Suddenly, footsteps were heard outside.
