After the heroine was robbed, save the paranoid villain

In fact, Yan Yu could still bear this little bit of hardship.

There's no other way. How can you marry into a royal family and enjoy wealth and luxury without suffering?

So much glory in front of people, so many tears behind their backs.

Xiao Chengji's battlefield was in the former dynasty, and Yan Yu's battlefield was in the harem.

The most powerful people in the harem are the Empress Dowager and the Empress. These two want to make trouble for Yan Yu, but Yan Yu cannot let Xiao Chengji intervene and get implicated.

As long as he does his job well in the court, and the two of them perform their respective duties, things will get better and better in the future.

Yan Yu leaned on Xiao Chengji's shoulder and said, "You continue to sleep. I will go and greet you and come back. If I don't go today, the Empress Dowager will be angry no matter what reason you give. You can't be angry with her. Even the Emperor can't be angry with her, let alone you."

Xiao Chengji raised his hand and touched Yan Yu's face.

Yan Yu raised her chin and closed her eyes slightly, indicating that she wanted him to kiss her.

Xiao Chengji chuckled and kissed her between the eyebrows.

This time, he went to Shoukang Palace to pay his respects, and when he came back he met the Seventh Prince and Concubine Luo again.

Concubine Luo was worried about the marriage of the Seventh Prince and Princess Fangxin. She was so worried that she couldn't sleep at all these days.

After being tricked by the Queen Mother and the Empress, the Seventh Prince's reputation became extremely bad, and even the most prominent families were unwilling to marry their daughters to him.

Princess Luo looked down on those whose family background was slightly lower.

She and the Seventh Prince depended on Queen Mother Zheng and Empress Zheng. They knew they were pawns, but they could not escape such a fate.

The Seventh Prince was not worried about himself. After all, he was a man and he would definitely find a woman who would marry him. No matter how poor the family background of the woman who could marry him was, she would have to be a clean and honest lady from a noble family.

He was more worried about Princess Fang Xin. These days, the Queen and the Queen Mother didn't take Princess Fang Xin seriously.

He went to Princess Xianyi to talk to her, but Princess Xianyi was too lazy to pay any attention to him.

After hitting a wall one after another, Xiao Qirui became somewhat discouraged.

Concubine Luo sighed, "It's all because of your mother's incompetence. You are not favored by your father, and you don't have a good family background to support you. The third and fifth sons have everything they want, but now it's my son's turn, and he can only rely on himself."

Xiao Qirui felt heartbroken, but he had to comfort Luo Fei instead.

Just at this time, Xiao Qirui and Concubine Luo saw Yan Yu walking out of the Empress Dowager's palace from afar.

Yan Yu didn't have a very good impression of Xiao Qirui. Xiao Qirui raped Miss Ma, causing her to swallow gold and die. Although the Queen Mother planned it, he was also the biggest perpetrator.

As a woman, basically, you won't have any good feelings towards a man who defiles a woman's innocence.

It just so happens that Xiao Qiru is Xiao Chengji's younger brother, and he still gets away with it even after committing a crime.

Yan Yu didn't want to greet them, so he pretended not to see them and went back via another route.

Xiao Qirui looked at Yan Yu's figure and his eyes paused.

Concubine Luo sighed, "Isn't she beautiful? Even if Xiao Jiashan doesn't want the good things in this world, the emperor won't give them to you. He will give them all to Xiao Chengji."

Xiao Qirui said: "Xiao Jiashan doesn't want it, he just doesn't know how good it is."

Men understand men best. As Xiao Jiashan’s brother, Xiao Qirui knows very well what this brother is thinking about all day and what weaknesses he has.

A woman who can charm Xiao Jiashan to death may not necessarily be able to catch Xiao Chengji's eye.

But a woman who can charm Xiao Chengji can definitely capture Xiao Jiashan's soul.

Xiao Qirui smiled and said to Concubine Luo: "Mother, do you know what the most painful thing in the world is?"

Luo Fei said without hesitation: "I couldn't ask for more."

Xiao Qirui said: "Xiao Jiashan will suffer ten times more."

Luo Fei's heart was shrouded in gloom. She didn't care whether Xiao Jiashan was in pain or not. What she cared about was whether the three of them would have a good life in the future.

During the New Year holidays, the palace was very lively inside and outside, and the princes gathered together to drink and have fun all day long.

Even someone like Xiao Chengji who doesn't like socializing has to attend social events all day long.

Princess Xianyi took Yan Yu to meet relatives one by one, and he basically got to know all the female members of the royal family.

Yan Yu was already very tired during the day, and just wanted to relax when he got home.

But the troublemakers sent by the Queen Mother just don't give people a break.

Lotus was sent to wash clothes, leaving only a palace maid named Xinghua and two eunuchs. These three worked outside the courtyard and were not allowed to go inside normally.

But after they arrived, they became more and more cunning, forming cliques with the servants in the mansion, recognizing one as their godsister and that as their godfather, and because they were good at getting along with everyone, they did very well in the mansion.

When Yan Yu came back that day, Jinqiu whispered something in Yan Yu's ear, saying that Xinghua used silver to bribe the maids and nannies working there, tried to build relationships with them, and also wanted to use silver to bribe Jinqiu.

"Miss, this won't work." Jin Qiu said softly, "People are restless now. Many of them have been influenced by Lotus and don't do their jobs properly. They just think about how to hook up with the prince all day long."

Yan Yu called Huo Wang over, gave him some instructions, and then sent him away.

She didn't want to do anything right now, so she could use these three people to see which ones were honest and did their job, and which ones were powerless when seeing money and could be easily bribed.

After dealing with all this, someone reported another matter to Yan Yu.

It is said that a case was brought to the Shuntian Prefecture government office. A family relied on the fact that they were relatives of Yan Yu and wanted to occupy their neighbor's land when expanding their house.

When Yan Yu heard this, he frowned: "My relatives?"

"Yes, the other party's surname is also Wen. It is said that he is one of your uncles. The Shuntian government office asked them to ask you."

Yan Yu was a little angry: "No matter if they are my relatives or not, as long as they have committed a crime, we will follow the laws of the Wei Dynasty and let them handle it impartially."

Yan Yu is the only one left in the direct lineage of the Wen family. Some random relatives have popped up, and who knows whether they are real or fake.

As a result, someone came to the gate of Prince Qin's mansion the next day and demanded to see the princess, saying that she was the princess' aunt.

If an ordinary person came to the Qin Palace to cause trouble, ten heads would be enough to be chopped off, but the people in the palace were afraid that this person was really a relative of the princess, so they informed him.

Yan Yu was so angry that she had no place to vent it. When she heard the doorman announce this early in the morning, she immediately had someone bring the person in to show her so that she could see what kind of relative the person was.

The person was brought over, a middle-aged slick woman, dressed very respectably, with a big gold bracelet on her hand. As soon as she saw Yan Yu, she came up to him and said, "Yan'er, I'm your fifth aunt. My husband's biological father is your grandfather's cousin. We are all family!"

Yan Yu looked her up and down and said, "Remember."

After her mother passed away, this family took advantage of the chaos to move things from the Wen Mansion and wanted to take Xiao Yanyu to their home to raise.
