He Qingchen had a faint smile on his face, but there was no smile in his eyes.

He stared at Nanny An, and the last bit of respect and love he had for her completely disappeared.

Nanny An's heart skipped a beat.

She didn't notice the abnormality in He Qingchen's tone, nor did she realize that the previous respectful address had become a thin, condescending "you". She only noticed that He Qingchen actually discovered the person outside and guessed what she was thinking.

Nanny An's eyes flickered for a moment.

Thinking of the person outside the door again, she gritted her teeth and said honestly: "My Lord, please trust me, I won't be wrong. I have specially screened and found that the person outside the door is the one best-looking, has the most brothers in the family, and has the best mother among those given by the Queen."

He Qingchen had a cold face, and before he could say anything, he heard Nanny An shouting outside: "Wan Niang, come in."

The woman called Wanniang walked in shyly.

She walked lightly, slowly approached He Qingchen, and bowed slowly in front of him. Her voice was graceful and her figure and temperament were specially cultivated. Her eyes, like hooks, looked at He Qingchen with watery eyes.

The rich fragrance on her body slowly drifted throughout the room.

He Qingchen sat up straighter.

He looked at the two people below him with disgust and asked slowly, "Your name is Wanniang?"

"Yes."

He Qingchen asked again: "Where are you from?"

He remembered that his mother, who was keen on matchmaking for him, seemed to have chosen people from some state capitals, and none of them were ordinary girls from decent families.

Wanniang didn't understand what was going on, she just thought that He Qingchen was interested in her, and she was slightly happy.

She answered shyly, trying to suppress her panic, and slowly said, "I live in Shouzhou, and I am the second daughter of the Shouzhou prefect."

He Qingchen pursed his lips and looked at her as if she were a dead person.

The prefect of Shouzhou, of course he knew.

In his previous life, he was chosen by his mother the Queen Mother and sent to Prince Rong's Mansion because of his second legitimate daughter. After that, he was promoted all the way. By the year of his death, this prefect of Shouzhou had already gone to Beijing and became an official in the capital.

As a foreigner, he was not in a position to meet Prince Rong's concubine. Although he had never seen the person in front of him, he knew that this person in He Chengjue's backyard was no easy task.

At least, she coaxed He Chengjue into obedience and even gave birth to two children successfully.

She even leapt over many people and became a concubine in Prince Rong's mansion.

But I didn't expect that I would come to him today.

In his previous life, the person his mother chose for He Chengjue has now come to his own house. It's really... quite funny.

He Qingchen couldn't help but laugh out loud.

The sound is crisp and low, very pleasant to hear.

A flash of surprise flashed across Wanniang's eyes, and she subconsciously curled her lips and boldly asked, "My Lord, what are you laughing at?"

He Qingchen frowned slightly and returned to his previous cold look.

He glanced at Nanny An who was standing beside her and said with a dark smile, "Guess?"

"My maidservant..."

"If I remember correctly, you signed that death contract some time ago and became the lowest-ranking maid in the mansion?" He Qingchen looked at her and said slowly.

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Stepmother's face, but she could only endure the humiliation and responded crisply, "Yes."

He Qingchen continued, "Didn't Wang Huan teach you how to call yourself as a slave in front of me? Didn't he teach you what to do and what not to do as a lowly maid? If he didn't teach you, it doesn't matter. I will teach you once in person and you will probably remember it."

Wanniang's heart was startled, but she didn't realize anything was wrong. She was only thinking about his last sentence.

Teach her personally?

How does the prince plan to teach?

However, her joy was a little dazzling in Nanny An's eyes. Nanny An had been immersed in the palace for many years and was used to being cautious. Even though she was used to being unrestrained in the mansion, her body's instinct made her subconsciously try to discern the meaning of He Qingchen's words.

His words clearly had no good intentions.

Why is my mother so happy this night?

really.

The next moment, she heard He Qingchen raise his voice and shout, "Take the people away first, and then ask Wang Huan to call all the women in the mansion here."

Nanny An's heart skipped a beat and she thought something was not right.

Wanniang realized later that something was wrong and was about to say something in explanation when she was grabbed by a guard dressed as a secret guard who came out of nowhere. Before she could even scream, her mouth was tightly covered.

“Ugh…Ugh…” Her eyes widened in horror.

A moment.

The room regained its peace.

Nanny An's hands were shaking as she spoke tremblingly: "Prince, Prince, what are you doing? The stepmother was specially arranged by the Queen. You, you are going against the Queen by doing this? If there is a rift, what should we do? Could it be that the Princess does not allow you to..."

"Madame An..." He Qingchen suddenly spoke, interrupting her.

However, he didn’t know if it was because he was angry, but at this moment, he felt a heat slowly rising in his abdomen and his body seemed to be slowly heating up. After just a few breaths, sweat even seeped out of his forehead.

Nanny An saw that he looked a little tired and realized something.

She felt a little depressed and secretly angry that her mother couldn't even hold out for a short while that night. Now, she didn't know who to ask to serve He Qingchen.

How about choosing one from the remaining two?

Or, those two concubines?

Nanny An thought about it randomly, but He Qingchen understood something from her slightly guilty look.

He looked away and looked at the cup that should have been intact, but was crushed by him, but some residue still remained on the table.

After his rebirth, he became much more cautious.

Nanny An had betrayed him in her previous life. After he entered the room, she had always remained alert and did not drink the tea in the cup. So why would he do that?

Suddenly.

He remembered the incense that came from the woman just now.

That scent, is it an aphrodisiac?

He Qingchen paused suddenly.

He used his inner strength to suppress the heat in his body, looked at Nanny An with sinister eyes, and asked through gritted teeth: "Nanny An, did you drug me?"
