Su Huan looked calm as she looked at Su Bingyan and Zhu standing in the courtyard. She said firmly, "I will not worry about the monthly allowance that I should get as the daughter of the prime minister's family. Before my mother passed away, she told me that when she married into the Su family, her grandfather and grandmother gave her a dowry that included ten shops, ten farms, small forests on all sides, and a considerable amount of gold, silver, and jewelry."

"Mother said that she would leave everything to me. Over the years, I have not used a cent. My living expenses in the prime minister's mansion are worse than those of a servant. Father, don't you think your second wife has lost face?"

"It is time to return my mother's dowry and all the profits she has earned over the years to me. Father, as the Prime Minister, you would never be as shameless as this bitch, occupying your deceased wife's dowry and mistreating your original wife and daughter."

After hearing what Su Huan said, Zhu felt humiliated to the core. When Su Huan mentioned Shen's dowry, she was furious. This little bitch was still thinking about it. After Shen's death, those things had long been under her control. The profits had all gone into her private vault. These were all she would leave for her children in the future.

Humph! In the backyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion, she has the final say in everything. Su Huan wants to get back Shen's dowry, dreaming. She even dared to verbally insult her again and again. This time, she failed to kill this little bitch, but she must die.

Su Huan saw Zhu's face, which was as ugly as if she had eaten shit. The original owner's mother's dowry had undoubtedly been embezzled by Zhu. Even though the Prime Minister's Mansion was honorable and wealthy, Shen's dowry was by no means a small amount. Now that she wanted it back, Zhu was heartbroken.

Su Bingyan looked at Su Huan coldly. He actually underestimated Su Huan. He was very sharp-tongued and put him in a position to force him to express his opinion.

"Of course." Su Bingyan said to Zhu in a deep voice: "Put everything in order and give it to her in full!"

When Zhu heard what the Prime Minister said, she couldn't help but scream, "Prime Minister, how can this be! Those are..."

Su Hua sneered. Zhu's expression was disgusting. She asked, "What is it?"

Zhu was calm, pointed at Su Huan, and said angrily, "You really don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are. Do you really think that you can make money by opening a shop? That there will be harvests every year in the farm and forests? You are daydreaming."

How could Su Bingyan not hear that Zhu's intention was not to pay it back? The Prime Minister's Mansion had been spending huge amounts of money in recent years, and he certainly knew that Shen's dowry brought considerable benefits every year. He would not be willing to give it to this little girl Su Huan.

Originally, he heard that Su Huan fell into the lotus pond and drowned, and everyone said that she would not survive. If Su Huan was really going to die, then Shen's dowry would be embezzled. But now Su Huan is not dead, and has the Shen family as a backer. In addition, Su Huan is no longer a three-year-old child. It is not so easy to manipulate and fool her.

While thinking, he said, "Your mother... stepmother is right. Let's wait for your stepmother to sort out all the accounts and then hand them over to you clearly."

Then, he added, "We have neglected you over the years. Your stepmother is in charge of such a large residence, so there are always omissions. I will personally arrange all your expenses here."

Su Huan just thought it was ridiculous. She wanted to dismiss him with just one word: negligence. No hurry. We can slowly settle the grudge with the original owner. She said coldly: "Father has spoken, so I believe it. Father is the head of the family. He keeps his word. He is not comparable to those shameless people."

As she finished speaking, Su Huan glanced at Zhu in a deliberately provocative manner.

Seeing that Zhu was furious, Su Bingyan reached out to stop her and stopped her from doing anything, and just said coldly, "Go."

Zhu suppressed her frustration and followed the prime minister. She was really angry. Since she became the mistress of the prime minister's mansion, she had never suffered such humiliation. Su Huan, just wait and see!

Su Huan looked at the backs of Su Bingyan and Zhu and called them, "Wait!"

Su Bingyan frowned, turned around but maintained his dignity and asked, "Anything else?"

Su Huan had stood up from her chair at this time, and walked closer step by step. She grabbed Zhu's wrist and forcefully took off the top-quality jade bracelet on Zhu's wrist.

The jade bracelet was suddenly taken off. Zhu's face was distorted with pain. She raised her hand to slap Su Huan, cursing, "Little bitch, what are you doing!"

Su Huan dodged and shook off Zhu's hand. She also took off the jade hairpin in Zhu's hair and said coldly, "If I'm not mistaken, this jade hairpin and bracelet are my mother's favorite dowry items. Who do you think you are? How dare you wear them in public?"

Zhu gritted her teeth and refuted, "You say it is, my lord, look at her, she is so disrespectful and rude."

Su Bingyan saw that Zhu was humiliated and even her hair was scattered because Su Huan pulled out the jade hairpin. She had already lost her dignified manner. After all, Zhu was his current wife, so how could he allow the young man to humiliate her again and again.

He said in a cold and stern tone, "I said I would give your mother's things to you after I sorted them out. If you continue to act like this, don't blame me for using family rules on you."

Su Huan disagreed and sneered, "These two things were handed down from the ancestors of the Shen family. Mother used to keep them carefully. For treasures like these, the word 'Shen' is engraved on them with micro-carving techniques. If you don't look closely, you can't find it at all. Father, should you open your eyes and take a closer look to see if these are things from the Shen family!"

"..."Su Bingyan was gagged for a moment and was speechless.

Zhu was also speechless. When she took the jewelry from Shen's dowry, she did not pay attention to these details. She never thought that the Shen family had kept this trick.

Damn it! Even if she had ten mouths, she couldn't argue.

Su Huan: "Father, take care. I won't see you off."

Just as Su Bingyan and Zhu were about to leave, a soft and gentle voice came from outside.

"I'm glad that you're all right, Dad and Mom. Don't be in a hurry to leave. I have a happy event that I want to tell you, and it would be great for you to listen to it together."

Su Huan looked at the person who walked in. It was Zhu's daughter, the second young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion - Su Xuan.

People in the capital all say that Su Xuan is both talented and beautiful, and is the most beautiful woman in the capital. There is no denying that Su Xuan's face is exquisite and beautiful, and her every frown, smile, and every move exudes tenderness and elegance.

It's a pity that such a soft and beautiful color is not amazing at all to Su Huan, who has seen countless beauties in her previous life.

"Xuan'er, you are accompanying Prince Jing. What important happy event is worthy of you coming here at this time?" When Zhu said this, she deliberately said it to Su Huan and emphasized the words "accompanying Prince Jing".

Su Xuan smiled and said, "Mother, Prince Jing feels guilty about canceling my elder sister's engagement, so he specifically asked the emperor for permission to find another good marriage for my elder sister. The emperor also agreed, and I think the marriage decree will be passed to the palace tomorrow."

Zhu: "A marriage granted?"

Su Bingyan: "The Emperor granted marriage? Who?"

Su Xuan: "Prince Ning——Mo Qianhan."

When Su Xuan mentioned the person to be married, Su Huan knew from the original owner's memory that Prince Ning was seriously injured in his legs and weak, a useless man who could only sit in a wheelchair. She said that these people would never have any good intentions.

That year, after the death of the late emperor, the eldest son ascended the throne and became emperor. Of the late emperor's nine sons, only his younger brother and the disabled Prince Ning were still alive, and the other six princes had all died.

The emperor allowed his own brother to break off the engagement with her, but also approved her request and married her to Prince Ning. Was there some other reason, or did he simply dislike her?
