Seeing Xiao Xuetang leave so casually and without any care, Ye Jin was so angry that his teeth were gnashing.

Why was Xiao Xuetang born with the good fortune of being the daughter of a marquis? Why was she able to marry Lin Shaoshu without any effort?

Thinking of Lin Shaoshu, an almost crazy look appeared in Ye Jin's eyes.

She had never seen a man as handsome as Lin Shaoshu, who was of noble birth and gentle and elegant. Only a man like him was worthy of her, Ye Jin.

As long as Xiao Xuetang is gone, she can take his place...

However, she had missed the opportunity to get rid of Xiao Xuetang in the Marquis' Mansion during these days. Xiao Yi was busy with the affairs of the former dynasty and had no time to take care of the harem. Xie's attitude towards her was a little cold. She had to hurry up...

"Let Madam Lai come to see me!"

She had spent so much money to win over Nanny Lai, and now it came in handy.

Ye Jin devised a plan in his mind, intending to repeat the old trick and have Nanny Lai lure Xiao Xuetang out of the city to do it again...

Even if Xiao Xuetang is not killed, her innocence can be ruined.

Unexpectedly, Ye Jin waited in the west wing for a long time, but did not see Nanny Lai. Instead, a little maid came back in a panic, saying, "Miss, something bad has happened. Nanny Lai was kicked out."

"What? Liu Da can't just deal with this Lai Madam casually. She is the old lady's maidservant who came with her as a dowry. Even Mrs. Xie has to respect her in the mansion. Who is so bold?"

More importantly, just before today, she had given Nanny Lai a hundred gold coins. Her gold couldn’t be wasted!

Seeing Ye Jin's distorted expression, the little girl was also afraid, but she still whispered, "It was the old lady's intention to punish Lai Madam."

"what!"

The jade comb in Ye Jin's hand fell to the ground and broke into two pieces in an instant. Ye Jin also lost his patience. A trace of impatience flashed across his face that usually thought he was superior: "Why did you make another wrong move? One wrong move leads to all the wrong moves. Why is this happening?"

Ye Jin felt that there seemed to be an invisible pair of hands in this mansion, which seemed to be able to guess her thoughts every time and take action before she could succeed, causing her to fail.

At this moment, Ye Jin suddenly felt an inexplicable chill on her back. She didn't even notice Qiao Niang coming back. Qiao Niang saw that Ye Jin's face was not right and couldn't help asking, "Miss, what happened?"

"Xiao Xuetang, it must be Xiao Xuetang's doing again!"

A cold look flashed in Ye Jin's eyes. Qiao Niang met Ye Jin's gaze and shuddered.

At this moment, Ye Jin walked outside. Qiao Niang was puzzled: "Miss, where are you going?"

Ye Jin sneered: "Xiao Xuetang thought that she could escape the troubles of this mansion by removing Litangju? If she wants to go against me, I will not let her have an easy time!"

At this time, Li Tang was in the middle. Qi Yue, Bi Hen and a few maids finally packed up everything after spending half a day there.

There was not much change in the outside of the house, but the inner room where Xiao Xuetang lived was completely new.

The paint-chipped square table by the window was replaced with a carved pearwood one, and the incense burner on it was replaced with a gilded magpie-tail incense burner, lit with water agarwood; a pearl hairpin was placed in front of the dressing table. It was no longer as shabby as before, and finally had some of the look of a woman's boudoir.

"Our young lady can finally dress up and go out openly from now on!"

Bi Hen said happily: "It's just that most of the clothes in the suitcase are damaged by moths. Now that we have silver and some fine silk sent by the lady, we must make some new clothes for the young lady..."

Seeing Bihen immersed in joy, Xiao Xuetang couldn't bear to expose him and said, "Don't be too happy too soon. Although we got these things back, it's not that simple."

Qiyue was a few years older than Bihen, so she was naturally more thoughtful than Bihen. She nodded and said, "Yes, the old lady values ​​money so much. This time we almost emptied half of the warehouse in Xuantang Courtyard. She must be holding a grudge against us..."

Although Xiao Xuetang said that the old lady returned the things for Xiao Yi's sake, Qiyue felt that things were not that simple.

Who doesn't know that the old lady loves money like her life!

Thinking of this, Qiyue looked at Xiao Xuetang with a hint of worry in her eyes...

But what Qiyue didn't expect was that there was no news from the old lady, but Xiao Yi sent someone to question her first.

"My lady, the Marquis asked you to go to the study."

Xiao Xuetang put down the book in his hand and asked, "Did father tell me what it was about?"

Just as the maid was about to speak, Qiyue beside her quickly grabbed a handful of copper coins and gave them to the maid. The maid whispered to Qiyue, "In the afternoon, Miss Jin went to the study."

After the little maid finished speaking, she left quickly. Qiyue looked at Xiao Xuetang with some concern.

Xiao Yi is not like Xie. His favoritism towards Ye Jin is very obvious. This time he suddenly sent a message to ask Xiao Xuetang to go to the study. I wonder if it is a blessing or a curse?

At this time, Xiao Xuetang had just entered the study room and had already prepared for the response. However, she did not expect Xiao Yique to change his previous cold attitude and asked Xiao Xuetang in a rare gentle manner: "Why haven't you visited the Queen Mother's Palace to pay respects these days? I heard that the Third Prince invited you several times, but you also declined."

Hearing this, Xiao Xuetang said, "My daughter has not been feeling well recently, so she has not been out."

Xiao Yi has always favored Ye Jin. She must not let Xiao Yi know that she is distancing herself from Lin Shaoshu and wants to break off the engagement with him!

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yi's face suddenly changed. He slammed the table fiercely and said, "Xiao Xuetang, you are so capable now that you even deceived your own father."

"Jin'er said today that you didn't go to greet your grandmother recently and went out to play all day. If the servants around you didn't serve you attentively, you would beat or scold them. It doesn't seem like you are unwell at all. Who taught you the rules and manners?"

Xiao Xuetang glanced at Xiao Yi indifferently, and understood in her heart that Ye Jin had suffered a loss at her hands, and had come to Xiao Yi to flatter her.

Xiao Xuetang raised a slightly mocking smile and looked at Xiao Yi: "Father accuses his daughter of being unruly. Then may I ask, father, have you ever taught your daughter for a day?"

Originally, Xiao Yi was furious, but when he met Xiao Xuetang's cold gaze, it was like a bucket of cold water was poured down on him, and he felt a little guilty...

He suppressed his anger, looked at Xiao Xuetang and taught her earnestly: "Your marriage with the Third Prince was granted by the late Emperor. Even His Majesty values ​​this marriage very much, not to mention that the Third Prince is a rare talent in Kyoto. You are blessed to be betrothed to such a man. Don't be willful."

There's that sentence again!

Everyone thought that it was Xiao Xuetang who was marrying above her station.

In her previous life, Lin Shaoshu ascended the throne and made her the queen. Everyone was secretly discussing how this unpopular daughter of the Xiao family could become the queen. They thought it was a blessing from their ancestors.

But Xiao Xuetang was also very intelligent in the past, with a photographic memory, and was personally taught by the old tutor Xie. Even Lin Shaoshu was inferior to him.

The world only knows that after Lin Shaoshu ascended the throne, he worked diligently to govern the country, but they don't know that Xiao Xuetang contributed half of the credit...

Ye Jin deliberately got close to Lin Shaoshu in order to make Lin Shaoshu the emperor in the future and she would become the queen.

In this life, without her step-by-step planning and the help of the Xie family, can Lin Shaoshu successfully defeat the prince and become the emperor?

Lin Shaoshu must have understood this, so even though he was having a hot affair with Ye Jin during the day, he still didn't want to let go of his "wooden" fiancée, so he complained to Xiao Yi.

How disgusting and ridiculous!
