I died tragically in my previous life, and I want to be an empress in my next life

Pei Zhixuan returned to Yuxiangxie, and the more she thought about it, the angrier she got. Was there no place for her in this palace? She even made a wet nurse angry. She was filled with resentment and anger, and she just wanted to vent it out.

She walked to the table and flipped it over fiercely, breaking the porcelain all over the floor. Tears welled up in her eyes, and the anger in her heart burned fiercely. At this moment, she was like a little beast that was cornered, ready to vent with all her strength.

The door was pushed open and Mother Xu walked in. Looking at the messy room, she felt a little panicked, but she quickly regained her composure.

Mother Xu had heard Xiao Cui's detailed account of what had happened in Yime Garden.

Mother Xu walked up to Pei Zhixuan and said softly, "Second Miss, don't be angry. The eldest lady didn't return home when she got married, so naturally she can't let you have your way in this matter."

Pei Zhixuan raised her head and looked at Mother Xu, her eyes flashing with anger, "That's because she's incompetent, what does it have to do with me?!"

Mother Xu smiled slightly and continued, "Second Miss, the most important master in this mansion is the prince. As long as you can capture the prince's heart, this mansion will have to listen to you from now on."

"It's useless for you to be angry with the eldest lady about this matter. It's better to think about how to let the prince make the decision for you."

Pei Zhixuan listened to Mother Xu's words and her mood gradually calmed down. Yes, as long as she could capture the prince's heart, she could get everything. Then, the princess and the wet nurse would all obey her!

Thinking of this, she asked Mother Xu to quickly bring rouge and powder. She wanted to dress up well and become beautiful before the prince came back. She would then cry in front of the prince and the prince would definitely stand up for her.

Looking at the beautiful face in the bronze mirror, Pei Zhixuan showed a confident smile.

However, as soon as Xuanyuan Ping returned home, Mother Xue got there first and stopped him in the study, where the two chatted for more than an hour.

At dinner time, as soon as Xuanyuan Ping stepped into the gate of Yuxiangxie, Pei Zhixuan came to greet him with a smile on her face, gently held his arm, and pulled him into the house.

"Your Highness, tomorrow is the day we return home." Pei Zhixuan said softly, her voice full of anticipation. As she spoke, she skillfully massaged Xuanyuan Ping's shoulders. Her fingers fell like drizzle, making his body feel soothed and relaxed.

"Well, tomorrow the king will personally accompany you back." Xuanyuan Ping nodded slightly and closed his eyes to rest.

Pei Zhixuan smiled smugly upon hearing this. She continued to massage Xuanyuan Ping's shoulders, her fingers gently massaging his neck and shoulders. "Your Highness, Xuan'er wants to wear the red dress embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water tomorrow. What do you think?"

"That dress suits you very well. Wear it tomorrow."

"Your Highness, Xuan'er went to ask my sister today about the return visit. My sister said that we should keep a low profile, so we didn't prepare many gifts for the return visit." Pei Zhixuan said again with a pout.

Xuanyuan Ping opened his eyes and said, "Recently, there have been too many rumors about Prince Jing's Mansion in the capital. I think it's better to keep a low profile tomorrow. I'll do as the princess said and keep everything simple. Just treat it as a simple meal at the Pei Mansion."

It seems that Xuanyuan Ping took some of what Mother Xue said to heart.

"Your Highness..." Pei Zhixuan bit her thin lips, her voice choked with sobs and a bit of grievance. Her eyes were slightly red, as if she had suffered a great injustice. Her look was so pitiful.

"I know this is too unfair to you, but for the sake of the overall situation, it is better for Prince Jing's Mansion to keep a low profile in the near future." Xuanyuan Ping opened his eyes and looked at Pei Zhixuan, with a hint of apology and tenderness in his eyes.

"Xuan'er, you have always been the most sensible person. I believe you will understand my decision. I will definitely compensate you in the future and will never let you suffer any injustice again."

Pei Zhixuan wanted to say something, but seeing Xuanyuan Ping's unquestionable expression, she could only quietly clench the handkerchief in her hand, suppressing the grievance and unwillingness in her heart, and nodded gently, hating Pei Zhiyan and Mother Xue in her heart.

On the second day, Pei Zhixuan looked extremely bad. Even with makeup on, she could not hide her haggard look. Pei Zhixuan cherished her face the most, so seeing that her complexion was so bad, she naturally could not be happy. However, more upsets were yet to come.

When she arrived at the door, she found that there was only one carriage with three or two servants following behind. There were only a few gifts in the carriage and it was less than half full.

This is too shabby. It is simply embarrassing and humiliating. Pei Zhixuan felt angry.

When Xuanyuan Ping came out, she had to pretend that she didn't care and happily got into the carriage with him.

At the gate of Pei Mansion, several servants had been guarding the door early in the morning according to Prime Minister Pei's instructions. When they were almost exhausted, they saw the carriage from Jingyu Mansion and immediately went to report to Prime Minister Pei.

When the carriage stopped at the gate, Lord Pei, Aunt Yun, and the young and old people in the Pei mansion were already waiting at the gate.

When the carriage arrived in front of the gate of Pei Mansion, the driver took down a small stool and placed it on the ground.

The servant lifted the carriage curtain and Xuanyuan Ping jumped out of the carriage. With one slender jade hand grasping the edge of the carriage and the other hand grasping the dress, Xuanyuan Ping reached out and held Pei Zhixuan's jade hand.

"Xuan'er, be careful." Xuanyuan Ping said with concern, his eyes were so soft, as if water could be squeezed out of them.

"Prince, you just love to worry about things." Pei Zhixuan said coquettishly, her face blushing. This man is hers.

Pei Zhixuan stepped carefully on the small stool and took a light step. Xuanyuan Ping held her hand and walked to the stairs.

"I, your humble servant, pay my respects to His Majesty, and to the concubine."

Everyone in the Pei family was waiting at the door early. When they saw Xuanyuan Ping coming over, they all saluted.

"There's no need to be so polite, father-in-law." Xuanyuan Ping waved his hand and personally helped Prime Minister Pei up.

Lord Prime Minister Pei was very pleased as both of his daughters were married to him, so he was worthy of the title of father-in-law.

"Thank you, Your Highness." Everyone stood up.

As soon as Pei Zhixuan got off the car, she saw her father and aunt whom she hadn't seen for a few days. Her eyes suddenly turned red. She had suffered so much injustice in Prince Jing's Mansion in the past few days that the moment she saw her parents, the tears surged uncontrollably.

"Xuan'er."

As soon as Aunt Yun saw her daughter, she couldn't stop crying. This was the first time her daughter had been away from her for such a long time. Prime Minister Pei's eyes were also slightly moist.

"Dad, aunt."

Pei Zhixuan ran over, and the mother and daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly. Aunt Yun grabbed her hand and kept looking at her.

Lord Pei and Xuanyuan Ping stood beside them, their faces filled with joy and excitement. Seeing this heartwarming scene of a family of three, if Pei Zhiyan were here, she would definitely sigh and say, you are true love, I am an accident!

"Okay, let's all go in." Prime Minister Pei said with a smile.
