The Princess of the Substitute Bride Strikes Back

I thought the matter was over, but the jailer walked towards the man's cell again, carrying an exquisite lunch box.

Mu Yiguo thought it was for him, so he hurried forward, but the jailer unexpectedly said, “Mu Yibai, this is for you.”

The first and second wives were both surprised. It turned out to be dinner for Mu Yibai? While the second wife was full of suspicion, Mu Yibai calmly took the food box and handed it to Fu Yunxi, asking them to eat first.

Fu Yunxi was overjoyed. When she opened the box, she saw it was filled with exquisite delicacies, including braised pork with preserved vegetables, mapo tofu, braised fish and a dish of stir-fried vegetables. The food box had four layers in total, with a large bowl of pork rib soup on the bottom layer.

Well, he is worthy of being a villain. Even when he is in prison, someone brings him steaming hot meals. What she doesn’t know is that these are prepared by the secret guards ordered by Mu Yibai.

In his previous life, the rescue was hasty, and more than half of the twenty secret guards died or were injured in order to save him. He also encountered drought and famine, and his life was even more difficult. In his rebirth, he made some preparations and told the secret guards not to act rashly, as he would need their assistance along the way. Tonight might be his last full meal before he set off. A few days ago, he had transported some food and property to the manors and houses along the way, hoping that things would change in this life.

"Come on, sister-in-law, eat this bowl of pork rib soup while it's hot." Lin was pregnant and needed additional nutrition.

Fu Yunxi was in a better mood after being counselled, and was able to eat more: "Okay, sister-in-law, you've worked hard, let's eat together."

"It's okay, sister-in-law. You eat first. I'll take out some dishes and we'll eat together. The rest will be sent to my husband and Yiheng." Fu Yunxi seemed to be taking dishes from the food box, but in fact she was using the food box as a cover to take out the dishes that were not served at the wedding banquet in the kitchen during the day. She also specially took some meat and pastries for each person. After taking everything out, she used the space as a cover to fill the food boxes and gave them to them.

When Mu Yibai opened the food box, his mouth twitched, thinking that they were being treated as gluttons. This little girl must have taken food from the space treasure. He only asked the secret guards to prepare some hot meals, especially for pregnant women to supplement nutrition, but now there was a full box, not to mention the food she had just taken out for her mother. This mischievous little girl.

The brothers Mu Yibai and Mu Yiheng were enjoying their meal, and the people from the second room next to them were drooling as they watched.

Mu Yuanzhang kept crying: "I want to eat delicious food, I want to eat meat, Grandfather, please give me some meat, wuwuwu."

Mu Yiguo blushed after hearing this. He had just severed his relationship with her, so where was his face at this moment? If it was before the severance of the relationship, he might have had the face to ask for it.

Alas, he could only comfort his grandson by buying them delicious food on the road in the future. After all, he didn’t have to please the officials when buying food outside, but how could he predict what the future would be like?

In this way, the people in the first room had a full meal, while the people in the second room could only barely fill their stomachs, and they were still fantasizing in their hearts that they could go out and buy a big meal in the future.

At night, everyone crowded on the big bunk bed against the wall. Fu Yunxi spread clean straw under her body, and her sister Jiaojiao helped her sensibly.

The environment in prison is not good. It doesn’t matter if they are young, but it’s mainly the pregnant women and the elderly. Fortunately, the weather is good now, otherwise it would be really hard to endure!

Fu Yunxi slept against the wall near Mu Yibai. On the right was the villain's sister Jiaojiao. While no one was paying attention, Fu Yunxi secretly took out a candy from the space and stuffed it into Mu Jiaojiao's hand: "This is a reward for you. You behaved very well today. You didn't cry in such a big scene. Our Jiaojiao was really well behaved today."

Fu Yunxi's gentle encouragement relaxed Mu Jiaojiao's tense nerves after a day of tension. She thought today would be a nightmare, but she didn't expect that everyone was protecting her and her new sister-in-law was also very easy to get along with.

The little girl was only nine years old, at an age of innocence: "Thank you, sister-in-law."

The little girl obediently opened the candy and put it in her mouth, and immediately a sweet milky taste filled her mouth. She covered her mouth and whispered, "It's delicious!" The little girl immediately showed her starry eyes, which made Fu Yunxi very cute, and she instantly wanted to have a child with the villain.

Next door, Mu Yibai did not sleep on the kang, but sat in a wheelchair and watched everything quietly. It seemed a little unreal. His sister could still laugh so happily in such an environment, and his mother and grandmother could also sleep peacefully. This was probably all thanks to Fu Yunxi.

Can he really trust her? He was also confused at this moment!

The next morning, just as it was daybreak outside, the jailer came with the key and woke everyone up: "Everyone, get up, you are still at home, get up and accept the inspection, and then you can go on the road."

Mu Yibai woke up when the jailer approached. When he heard the sound of keys, he knew there were other footsteps. The emperor didn't find what he wanted when he searched the house, so he came to search the person again.

Several maids and eunuchs came in from outside and searched people directly, focusing on the people in the main room.

Fu Yunxi watched the maids act so roughly, and then she stepped forward and grabbed a maid who seemed to be the leader: "We are all young masters and young ladies from aristocratic families. Although we have been demoted to commoners now, we all have families. If you don't look at the Mu family, you should also look at our natal family! Besides, even if I am not favored anymore, the Prime Minister's Mansion is still standing behind me. What's more, your aimless search may not yield any results. If you discuss it properly, we will cooperate a little. How much of the things you find will belong to you and how much to us, and the emperor will not know.

The maids naturally understood what this meant, and they reluctantly searched them one by one, but this time they were not as rude as before.

Luo and Lin looked at Fu Yunxi gratefully, while Jiang smiled at her, silently accepting this granddaughter-in-law.

Sure enough, the maids found some silver bills, which were not large in denomination, only a few hundred taels in total, and some gold jewelry. It was obvious that their search was targeted.

Looking at the cell next door, the eunuchs kept touching Mu Yibai, afraid of missing anything, even his shoes and the wheelchair under his buttocks.

Mu Yibai knew clearly that they were sent by the emperor to find Mu Junling. This token was specially approved by the previous emperor to train an elite team for the old general.

These 10,000 elite soldiers were all personally selected and trained by the old general. Each of them was capable of fighting ten enemies at once. They had fought on the battlefield with Mu Yibai's grandfather and were invincible.

However, many people have died in battle, and some have retreated to the second line due to their advanced age and can no longer charge into battle, engaging in tasks such as commanding and training soldiers.

This team was specially approved by the late emperor to guard the border with the Mu family. If anyone retires, we can recruit up to 10,000 people.

Mu Yibai had mixed feelings. In his previous life, the emperor had tracked him down all the way for the token, but because he did not have Mu's military order, he did not kill him easily.

"Okay, we have finished searching the house and have to return to the palace to report. I will not see you off, Prince. Take care on your journey!"

The eunuchs did not find the token entrusted by the emperor, and it seemed that the item was not with them, so they had to return to the palace to report.

Mu Junling was indeed not with Mu Yibai. In his previous life, he was exiled to the frontier and had never found his father's Mu Junling, nor had he found that group of elite generals.

Looking at the receding backs of the eunuchs and maids who were searching, the people in the second room were in trouble. All the valuables they had hidden on them, such as the silver bills and gold jewelry, were looted.
