Reborn to be replaced, remarried to the royal palace to raise children and train husband

Zheng Fenghui's eyes widened, his face full of fear, and he stretched his neck and said in great resistance: "Aunt, I will never kneel down and apologize to her! What did I do wrong? Why do you want me to bow my head?"

Zheng Huiyi glanced at him coldly, with an unquestionable firmness in her eyes, and said sternly: "Feng Hui, you are making a fuss. Gu Qinlan is now your nominal mother. If you continue to be so rude, the entire Prince Duan's Mansion will be ashamed because of you."

Zheng Fenghui's heart was filled with anger and unwillingness, but facing Zheng Huiyi's majesty, he knew he could not disobey. He clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and his eyes flashed with a light of struggle.

"Aunt, I know my status in Prince Duan's Mansion, but I cannot go against my conscience. She forced me to kneel down, which is an insult to my personality!" Zheng Fenghui's emotions gradually got out of control, and his voice was filled with tears.

Zheng Huiyi's eyes softened, but her tone remained firm: "Feng Hui, you don't understand yet. In this mansion, Gu Qinlan's status is above everything else. If you don't apologize, not only will you anger her, but you will also implicate your father and your sister."

She walked up to Zheng Fenghui and whispered, "I know you feel wronged, but you have to understand that sometimes, bowing your head is not about admitting defeat, but about protecting the peace of the family. If you are really filial, you should learn to be patient."

Zheng Fenghui's tears welled up in his eyes. He bit his lower lip tightly, and his voice trembled: "Aunt, I really can't do it. I...I would rather leave Prince Duan's Mansion than apologize to her."

Zheng Huiyi's face darkened, she raised her foot and kicked Zheng Fenghui's knee with such force that he fell to the ground involuntarily. Zheng Fenghui's face showed a painful expression, but he still clenched his teeth and didn't make a sound.

"Feng Hui, are you forcing me to take action?" Zheng Huiyi's voice was full of disappointment and anger.

Zheng Fenghui knelt on the ground, tears streaming down his face. He looked up at Zheng Huiyi, his eyes flashing with an unyielding light: "I... I just want justice."

Zheng Huiyi felt a sharp pain in her heart. She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. "Fairness? In this mansion, fairness is part of survival. If you can't adapt, you are doomed to be eliminated."

She squatted down, looked at Zheng Fenghui face to face, and her tone became softer: "Fenghui, I know you are suffering, but you must remember that in this world, no one is sorry for you, only you. You must learn to grow up and learn to face it."

Zheng Fenghui's tears continued to flow, but he nodded slowly, with a firm light in his eyes: "Aunt, I understand. I am willing to apologize, but not because she is my stepmother, but because I respect the rules of Prince Duan's Mansion."

Zheng Huiyi smiled slightly. She patted Zheng Fenghui's shoulder gently and said softly: "Good boy, you finally understand. Remember, no matter when, you must maintain your dignity, but also learn to bow your head at the right time."

Zheng Huiyi stared at Gu Qinlan with a ferocious look on her face, and roared, "Gu Qinlan, if you dare to go to the government office to file a complaint, I will write a letter to my brother and ask him to divorce you!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Qinlan's face turned pale instantly. She bit her lips tightly, trying to hold back her tears. Looking at Zheng Huiyi's smug look, a feeling of sadness welled up in her heart.

Zheng Huiyi was not bluffing, she would really do it.

The maid Hongye hurried forward, stood in front of Gu Qinlan, and shouted angrily: "Zheng Huiyi, you are threatening the Crown Prince's Consort! What qualifications do you have to do this?"

Zheng Huiyi looked at Hongye with disdain and sneered, "Qualifications? My brother is the prince of Duan, and I am the eldest daughter of the Duan Palace. Who is Gu Qinlan? How dare she compete with me?"

Hongye was so angry that she was shaking all over. She wanted to say something else, but was gently pulled back by Gu Qinlan. Gu Qinlan looked at Zheng Huiyi, with a hint of determination in her eyes. She slowly said, "Zheng Huiyi, do you think you can threaten me like this? I tell you, I, Gu Qinlan, am not a coward."

Zheng Huiyi's eyes widened. She didn't expect Gu Qinlan to dare to contradict her like this. She said angrily, "Okay, wait, I'll write a letter to my brother and ask him to divorce you!"

After saying that, Zheng Huiyi turned around and was about to leave. Hongye hurriedly grabbed her and said, "Zheng Huiyi, you can't treat the Crown Prince's Consort like this!"

Zheng Huiyi shook off Hongye's hand, stared at her, and said with gritted teeth: "Hongye, you are just a lowly maid, and you dare to control me?"

Hongye's eyes widened, a trace of fear flashed in her eyes, but she still said firmly: "Although I am of low status, I know what is loyalty and what is right and wrong! Zheng Huiyi, you are doing this, heaven and earth will not tolerate it!"

Zheng Huiyi was so angry that her face turned purple. She glared at Hongye and said hatefully, "Okay, okay, you two just wait and see!"

After saying that, she left in a hurry. Hongye looked at Gu Qinlan worriedly, fearing that she would be hurt.

Gu Qinlan patted Hongye's hand gently and said with a smile: "Hongye, don't worry, I'm fine. She just wanted to scare me, she won't really do it."

Hongye asked worriedly, "Princess, do you really not take what she said to heart?"

Gu Qinlan sighed, a trace of helplessness flashed in her eyes: "Hongye, I know she said those words in anger, but she is my sister-in-law after all, I can't make things too awkward with her. Besides, if I really go to the government office to file a complaint, it will only damage the reputation of Prince Duan's Mansion, which is not good for anyone."

Hongye nodded silently, secretly admiring Gu Qinlan's magnanimity.

Gu Qinlan lowered her eyes and looked at Zheng Fenghui who was kneeling on the ground in silence. She sighed and said earnestly: "Fenghui, you are the hope of the Zheng family. Your behavior represents the image of the Zheng family. You are indeed at fault for what happened today. You must reflect on it."

Hearing this, Zheng Fenghui raised his head, a hint of unyielding flashed in his eyes, but he quickly lowered his head and said in a muffled voice: "I know I was wrong, but I don't think you can do this to me."

Gu Qinlan frowned. She didn't expect Zheng Fenghui to be so unrepentant. She took a deep breath and tried to calm her tone: "I didn't do anything to you. I just want you to understand that your behavior is wrong. You use a toad to scare me. This is disrespectful to me and yourself."

Zheng Fenghui's face turned a little ugly. He gritted his teeth and wanted to refute, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Gu Qinlan looked at him, feeling a little disappointed, but she still said patiently: "Feng Hui, I know you may not be convinced in your heart, but you have to understand that I am your elder and I am qualified to teach you how to be a man. If you really want to prove yourself, you have to start by being a good person."

Zheng Fenghui raised his head, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes, and he said, "I understand, I will reflect on it."

Gu Qinlan nodded and prepared to leave. However, Zheng Fenghui suddenly spoke up and stopped her: "Mother, you can't leave like this."

Gu Qinlan turned around, looked at him, and smiled curiously: "Do you have anything else to say?"

Zheng Fenghui lowered his head and was silent for a while, then said: "Mother, you don't keep your word."
