"My wife is still suffering in the County Magistrate's Mansion. Now that I have a new life, I don't want her to suffer any more hardships. I want to protect her well."

"Your wife is Ji Chuhe, the eldest daughter of the County Magistrate's Mansion?"

"Yes, it's her." Xiao Yan'an nodded firmly.

Princess Huaiyang did want to find a suitable woman in Huaiyang to marry into the palace, and she was not planning to marry into the powerful families in the imperial capital.

The emperor was already suspicious of them, and if they married into a powerful family, it would make the emperor even more suspicious that they had rebellious intentions.

"Tell me first, what did you do in the County Magistrate's Mansion?" The princess still wanted to find out.

After all, this concerns the reputation of her future daughter-in-law.

"When I arrived at the County Magistrate's Mansion, I saw Ji Qingyuan bullying He'er, so I wanted to vent her anger. Geng Shi is not a good person either. She often tortured He'er and almost killed her. She burned a big scar on her body. However, these things haven't happened yet, so I wanted to completely prevent He'er from being persecuted by Geng Shi again."

"So, you just kissed him!"

"Well, Geng wants to ruin He'er's reputation, so I'll just add fuel to the fire so that He'er will have no choice but to marry me."

The princess suddenly frowned, "Let me ask you again, how is your relationship with He'er?"

Xiao Yan'an choked, "Of course, they are in perfect harmony, inseparable, loving each other for life, and forever."

The princess remained silent, pondering these sixteen words in her heart, wondering how many of them she could believe.

"Who slapped you in the face?" The princess noticed the red marks on Xiao Yanan's face.

"I hit her myself." Xiao Yan'an said quickly, "I was afraid that He'er would hurt her hand if she did it herself."

princess:……

She really didn't want to admit that this was her biological son.

How could he be like this?

My mind is filled with love!

However, as long as it’s not that Xu Yan’er, it’s fine.

"Mother, I want to bring He'er to the palace. What do you think?"

"Let mother handle this matter. After all, it involves the inner house. We must not ruin He'er's reputation and let that Geng succeed."

"Yes, yes, yes." Xiao Yan'an nodded quickly.

"Go let the court doctor take a look at your injuries first."

"Yes." Xiao Yan'an stepped out.

After walking a few steps, he couldn't help but look back into the hall.

In his previous life, he and He'er talked about the life in which He'er married Shen Chengjing.

He'er told him that his mother died first, and then everyone in the Huaiyang Palace was executed.

He'er suspected that her mother was poisoned.

At that time, the Rongguo Mansion was already far away from the imperial capital.

My father sent my mother to her ancestral hometown to reunite with the people in the Rongguo Mansion. Not long after, my mother passed away.

He suspected that his mother's death in that life must have been related to the emperor, and might have been the emperor's doing.

In this life, he is the only one who is reborn, and it is his turn to protect them!

Inside the palace, the princess thought for a moment, and immediately ordered, "Come here, tell the prince to find something for Ji Jun Shou to do, and let Ji Jun Shou leave Huaiyang City for a few days."

"Yes." Someone immediately took the order and left.

It’s a pity that Yan An said that even after living a second life, he still didn’t understand how important a girl’s reputation is.

He walked up to her and kissed her, as if he was afraid that she would run away and not marry him.

How could she not understand this little thought?

No one knows a child better than his mother!

However, since she is her daughter-in-law, there is no reason for her not to love her.

Prince Huaiyang was discussing matters with the county governors. When he heard the news from the princess, he immediately assigned the tasks that were originally intended for other county governors to County Governor Ji.

"Jun Shou Ji, you should leave immediately and come back after you have dealt with these matters."

"Yes." County Magistrate Ji immediately accepted the order.

After the discussion was over, he sent someone to the mansion to say hello and then set off directly.

When Geng heard the news, she was very angry.

"How can it be such a coincidence? He has something to do right now. By the time he comes back to deal with Ji Chuhe in a few days, it will be too late!"

Never mind, I’m not afraid to wait a few more days.

Anyway, Ji Chuhe can't escape.

Ji Chuhe was not very happy when she heard that County Magistrate Ji had left Huaiyang City for some business.

Anyway, as a father, she only listens to Geng, and if he comes back in a few days, her fate will be the same.

Nanny Ji, Mian Zhu and the people serving in the courtyard all knew what had happened, and their faces were filled with worry.

"Miss, could it be that Prince Xiao really likes you? He wouldn't just leave such a mess behind and not clean it up." Nanny Ji couldn't help but say.

"Mammy, I don't know him. If he didn't say he was Prince Xiao, I would just think he was a lunatic." Ji Chuhe responded softly.

"How could this Master Xiao be like this? He ruined the young lady's innocence and just left it alone. What's the difference between him and those evil people who kill and burn people?" Mian Zhu was furious. "If I see Master Xiao again, I will fight him to the death!"

Ji Chuhe had the same idea.

"He is more hateful than those murderers and arsonists. Don't worry about it anymore. Father won't be back for a few days anyway. At least I'm safe these few days. It's rare that I won't be disturbed by Geng's mother and daughter. I'm going to read a book first."

Ji Chuhe was only worried that she still had a lot of books to finish reading.

When I came to the library and opened a book, all distracting thoughts disappeared from my mind.

I don’t know how long it was before a cry of pain was heard from outside.

"Rong Song, did you do this on purpose? Did you want to throw me to death?"

"Prince, I really slipped just now." Rong Song was a head taller than Xiao Yan'an. It was he who carried Xiao Yan'an over the wall of the county magistrate's mansion and brought Xiao Yan'an here.

"Shh!" Xiao Yan'an made a gesture for silence and quickly checked the food box in his hand. Fortunately, the items inside were intact.

He didn't care about his injuries and limped towards the library.

He knew that He'er must be here.

Ji Chuhe heard the noise and turned around to see Xiao Yanan.

A sinister look suddenly flashed across her face!

Originally, her life was already in dire straits, and Xiao Yan'an made it even worse!

How dare this instigator come!

"He'er, I brought you some snacks. They were made by the chef in the palace. They are only available in the imperial capital and are delicious." Xiao Yan'an walked forward and placed the food box in front of Ji Chuhe.

"Don't worry, I have told my mother the truth about what I did to you. She will definitely not let Geng bully you again. As for your father, he will be back in the next few days. Just wait for my mother to slowly deal with Geng."

Ji Chuhe frowned.

It turned out that my father's sudden departure was related to Xiao Yan'an.

It seems that he is not going to just abandon this mess.

This eased the anger in her heart a little.

However, it does not mean that her impression of Xiao Yanan has improved.

The impression Xiao Yan'an left on her was still extremely bad.
