Zheng Nianwei stretched out her snow-white fingers and gently stroked the petals carved from jade. She was smiling in her heart, but she still said that she was not going to give in.

"Who wanted him to make me angry that day? He is not as caring as my Yan'er, who knows how to care for others."

"That's because our eldest son has been filial since he was young, and he knows the difficulties your mother has gone through. Besides, how can the love between mother and son be compared with the love between husband and wife?"

"Well, you ungrateful girl, who do you belong to? Why do you always speak for others? But has anyone from the prince's side given you any benefits?"

Lu Wu turned around and walked to the table and brought a cup of hot tea, still smiling gently and respectfully.

"No matter who gives me something sweet, it can't be sweeter than the rewards my master usually gives me. I'm not a person who doesn't care about work, so how dare I betray my master?"

This light eye drops immediately changed the expression of the man who was still smiling just now. He took a sip of the tea, warmed his hands and feet, walked to the chair and sat down, and then asked casually.

"Did the prince go to the West Courtyard again yesterday?"

The maid didn't say anything in reply, but the embarrassed look on her face made it clear. Zheng Nianwei sneered, and a gloomy look appeared on her pretty face.

"It's really hard for her. She has been lingering on for so many years and still holding on to that breath. Now her son is dead, and she still has the energy to come out and compete for favor? It turns out that she was born into a lowly family and has many tricks to seduce men!"

What the master said was inappropriate, and Lu Wu did not try to persuade him, but just tried to say nice things.

"With her frail body, she might die this morning or tomorrow night. Even if she pretends to be pitiful and seduces the prince, what can she do?

Master, please don't be angry with that kind of person. It's a disgrace to your status. Anyway, there's no hope for him now. Our eldest son has secured the position of the Prince of Ding!"

"Humph, it should have belonged to my Yan'er in the first place!"

Zheng Nianwei clenched her left hand angrily. The red nail polish she had just dyed yesterday was pressed into her palm, leaving a few faint crescent-shaped lines that almost hurt her heart.

"It's obvious that I was the one who arranged the marriage with him first, and it's obvious that I should be his legal wife, and it's obvious that my Yan'er should be the legitimate eldest son!"

Over the years, every time this matter was mentioned, it was like a thorn in her heart that could not be removed, and she would be angry whenever it touched her.

"I am a noble lady from a rich family, but I had to endure the humiliation of becoming a concubine. Over the years, whether in my mother's family or in front of outsiders, I couldn't hold my head up anywhere. In the end, her son even dared to compete with my son..."

He had not yet finished venting his anger when he was interrupted by a servant who came in hurriedly with a message from outside.

"Master, something bad has happened. A servant just came to report that the Second Young Master has been sent back!"

"what?!"

She was distracted and accidentally dropped the half cup of hot tea in her right hand to the ground. The crisp sound of the porcelain breaking made Zheng Nianwei's eyes tremble violently.

"Who is so bold as to come to my Dingwang Mansion to defraud people? Obviously, that evil creature has already..."

Even if the rest of the words were not spoken, the servants who served him knew what his master wanted to say. Zi Yan, who came in to report the news, turned pale and quickly repeated what the errand boy had said.

"I heard that it was really the Second Young Master, and he was rescued! The one who sent him back was Chu Sanlang from Duke Wu's Mansion and Queen Xuan's mother's family. Xiao Guizi also said that many people who were watching the fun came to the door and gathered there! What should we do, Master?"

Zheng Nianwei is indeed a daughter of the family who has been carefully educated. In order to win over the Prince Ding's Mansion to help the family, she was able to endure such a great humiliation and live with the reputation of a concubine for more than ten years. This shows that she is not the kind of woman who only knows how to act on impulse.

After quickly analyzing the situation in her mind, she quickly stood up and asked.

"Does the prince know about this? Has it passed now?"

"........."

"Say!"

Zi Yan pursed her lips and reported it reluctantly.

"I heard that the West Courtyard didn't stay the night as usual yesterday. The prince went to Concubine Huang's room and hasn't come out yet!"

"Bitch! They are all a bunch of bitches!"

Zheng Nianwei was so angry that her face turned blue. She walked out while giving orders repeatedly.

"Luwu, you go there in person and ask our noble prince to come out of the land of comfort! If he doesn't come out, you stand outside Huang's door and explain everything to him word for word!

"Ziyan, go and summon all the guards in the mansion! Come with me to meet the nosy Wu and Chu families!"

She is a royal lady who has married the Royal Jade Butterfly and is a legitimate daughter of the Zheng family, a time-honored family with many years of inheritance. She is very confident!

After all, she had made such a great contribution to the family in the past, and now she has an eldest son by her side.

Haha, you’re really not afraid of getting into trouble.

He was carried here in a hurry by servants. As soon as he got off the sedan chair, he was called outside the door and there were bursts of booing, accompanied by the sound of gongs. It sounded very lively!

Turning her head to look at the guards and servants holding weapons behind her, Zheng Nianwei instantly felt confident and waved to the doorman.

"Open the door."

"Yes!"

Following the master's orders, the servants acted quickly.

Chu Zongyuan, who had been standing outside the door in the cold wind for a while, looked at the angry old sister who was about to kick the door with a smile, raised his eyebrows proudly and said.

"Look, I told you the door has to be opened soon, right? After all, we are back in the capital now, and this is not the time to attack bandits. It's best to practice courtesy before force, okay?"

"do not know."

I have said before that although the child is stupid, he is honest. He never cheats on things that can be solved in one go.

"I don't know, forget it. Just stand by and watch Third Brother perform. When I can't handle it, you take over."

Chu Chi looked at him, then at Ye Xiaoer who had a tense face, and then at the group of people who were slowly walking in from the open door. He felt that Chu Xiaosan was probably too proud to even know his own worth.

However, Chu Chi would usually be willing to help his friends achieve their wishes. So he took a step back and nodded, "You go ahead."

The two of them worked together to plan a plan. Chu Zongyuan slowly tidied up his clothes that were messed up by the wind, and winked at Chu Chi, saying, "Just wait and see."

"Oh, could it be that Prince Ding is busy and not at home? How can you, the concubine of Prince Ding, trouble a woman from the inner house to show up in public?

I am a very honest and serious person. Meeting with another concubine behind the back of my husband is really against the rules. It is very against the rules!"

This bastard is just as bad as ever. When he wants to make fun of someone, his lips become as red as a jellyfish.
