Brother Xue San was a little displeased and looked at her subconsciously, but saw that she was kneeling on the mat and kowtowing devoutly.

"Sister, a woman should obey her father at home and her husband's wishes after marriage. Knowing too much is not necessarily a good thing. You just need to do what I say."

However, in her previous life, it was because she did exactly what they asked that she ended up with such a tragic ending.

Both the Xue family and the Zhao family treated her like a fool and teased her.

In the end, she could only leave the world with endless resentment.

"Since Third Brother also said that after getting married, one should obey the wishes of the husband, then now that I am married, I naturally don't need to listen to the Xue family's words anymore."

"Sister, I'm just kindly reminding you that if you go against the Xue family, it will not do you any good."

But even if she didn't fight against the Xue family, wouldn't she still get a bad result in the end? If she chose to fight against the Xue family, there might be a glimmer of hope.

"Third brother, thank you for your advice. I have kept your words in mind."

Xue Jinhua not only did not argue with him, but seemed particularly submissive, which surprised Xue Sange, but he still looked at her vigilantly: "It's good that you know it. I hope you can remember your identity and don't do anything that crosses the line."

Xue Jinhua smiled slightly, with a barely perceptible cunning flashing in her eyes: "The master is about to arrive, third brother, are you really going to make a scene here?" Her tone was somewhat teasing, as if she saw through the inner conflict of Third Brother Xue.

Sure enough, Third Brother Xue frowned, and was very reluctant to give up, but he was worried about losing his composure in front of the master and affecting his image.

When the two were at a stalemate, fortunately, a young monk came hurriedly and said to Xue Jinhua respectfully: "Madam, the master has ordered you to move to Futang."

Xue Jinhua nodded slightly, then turned and left gracefully.

Xue Sange was left standing there, looking at her receding back, his heart full of confusion and resentment.

After Xue Jinhua walked away, Third Brother Xue's gaze fell on the cushion surrounded by fragrant mist and embroidered with a compassionate Buddha image.

He couldn't help but think of Xue Jinhua's devout worship of Buddha just now, and felt more and more strange.

How could this fearless woman with a heart as vicious as a snake suddenly change her ways and start worshipping Buddha?

After hesitating for a moment, he suddenly lifted the futon, wanting to see if there was any secret hidden inside.

However, when he saw that there was nothing under the futon, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

Did she really come here simply to worship Buddha?

Thinking of this, Brother Xue gritted his teeth and whispered to the servants around him: "Come here, keep an eye on her. No matter what she does, you must report it to me truthfully."

"Yes." The servant responded quickly, then quietly followed Xue Jinhua away.

.........

After worshiping the Buddha, Xue Jinhua walked out of the temple and returned to her room.

Xue Jinhua turned her head to look at her palm, and found an extra piece of paper inside.

She unfolded the paper and saw the flourishes on it, with only one word written on it: fire…

Xue Jinhua understood what he meant and immediately put it away carefully.

Just then, she came towards the Prince and Zhao Yuting.

This prince seems fine, but Zhao Yuting has finally seized this opportunity, so how could she not take the opportunity to cause trouble?

Sure enough, Zhao Yuting said, "If such a vicious person comes to pray for blessings, isn't that blaspheming the Buddha?" There was something hidden in her words, how could Xue Jinhua not understand the meaning?

However, Xue Jinhua was not angry, but instead the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

She was just thinking about how to cause trouble for Zhao Yuting, but she didn't expect that the trouble would come to her door.

"I didn't expect that you are so self-aware." Xue Jinhua said sarcastically.

"Don't you understand what I'm saying about you?" Hearing this, Zhao Yuting's anger was instantly ignited. She widened her eyes and glared at Xue Jinhua, her voice becoming sharper: "I'm talking about you, you shameless and vicious woman, you are simply shameless!"

"Vicious? Can I be as vicious as you?" Xue Jinhua sneered, with a hint of disdain in his eyes.

She thought of what had happened and couldn't help feeling sarcastic.

"When you were still unmarried, you and your mother coveted my dowry and even did the ugly thing of seducing the powerful. Who is shameless?" Her voice was full of contempt.

"Now that you are married, you disrespect your brother and sister-in-law, and now you come back to meddle in your mother's family affairs. You are so arrogant and domineering!" Xue Jinhua continued, "If it was another mistress, it would be fine, but you are just a little concubine." Her words were like a sharp sword, piercing Zhao Yuting's heart.

"Those who know that you married the prince of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion would think that you went to the palace to become a queen." Xue Jinhua's last sentence made Zhao Yuting's face turn extremely pale.

She stared at Xue Jinhua with her eyes wide open, her lips trembling, but she couldn't speak.

"You...you shut up." Zhao Yuting finally couldn't help but explode. She screamed and interrupted Xue Jinhua's words.

Her body was trembling slightly, and she was obviously very angry.

However, facing Zhao Yuting's roar, Xue Jinhua did not show any intention of backing down. Instead, she raised her chin and looked at the other party with a provocative look.

"Shut up?" Xue Jinhua sneered, and a hint of mockery flashed in her eyes. "What I said is well-founded and not made up. Little sister, are you angry because I exposed your hypocritical mask?"

Zhao Yuting's terrifying eyes seemed to be able to eat people. She stared at Xue Jinhua intently, wishing she could eat her alive.

However, facing such a look, Xue Jinhua seemed to have seen nothing, not caring at all. Instead, she chuckled and said, "Little sister, I didn't want to argue with you about the words you wrongly accused me of. I just thought you were young and ignorant. If next time... you can't produce evidence, then you can blame me for being rude. Even if it comes to the emperor, I will seek justice for my innocence!"

As she spoke, she turned her gaze to Zhao Yuting who was standing beside her, and sneered, "My Lord, I see that your forehead is dark. You'd better be careful and don't get yourself into trouble for a concubine."

"You...you are just talking nonsense!" Zhao Yuting's eyes were almost red. How could she endure such insults and slander? She was so angry that she trembled all over and shouted with gritted teeth: "Xue Jinhua, I will kill you!"

"Aunt Zhao, shut up!" After the prince entered the temple, he felt a little upset, but he didn't know why.

Hearing Zhao Yuting's inappropriate shouting at this moment, he felt even more annoyed.

He had only one thought in his mind, which was to not cause any trouble.

The Xue family and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are both here, so there is no need for the Duke Zhenguo Mansion to force itself to step forward.

Moreover, although he had heard about the Zhao family's affairs, he did not want to get involved.

"I don't want to get involved in the Zhao family's affairs." The prince said coldly.

After hearing this, Zhao Yuting felt extremely aggrieved.

She originally thought that the prince would speak up for her, but she didn't expect that at the critical moment, the prince would choose to stay out of it.

This made her feel extremely disappointed and angry, and tears welled up in her eyes and could burst out at any time.

However, the prince had no intention of caring about Zhao Yuting's feelings.

He was becoming more and more irritated and just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.

Just as he turned around and was about to leave, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a white figure walking towards him.

His face became increasingly gloomy, and he roared angrily, "Aunt Zhao, if you don't want to leave, don't come back from now on!"

Obviously, Zhao Yuting also noticed this scene.

Although she was angry at the prince's ruthlessness, she could only swallow her anger.

After all, what happened last time in Huangshan Temple was still fresh in her memory, so she chose to vent all her anger on Xue Jinhua, and left a vicious sentence: "You are lucky." Then she left with a heart full of anger.

Watching the two people walking away, Xue Jinhua raised the corners of her mouth slightly and whispered softly: "I hope you can always maintain this luck."

She was not talking nonsense, because her memories of her past life told her that the prince had a miserable life and died young.

According to the time calculation, now is that unfortunate period.

However, even if the other party didn't believe it, she could do nothing about it.

Just as Xue Jinhua was about to turn around, the stern-looking Crown Prince was standing behind her.

His Royal Highness's voice was cold and calm, making it difficult to read his emotions. He slowly said, "Madam, are you coming to the temple to pray for blessings?"

"Yes." Xue Jinhua nodded slightly and said respectfully, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to the Crown Prince."

"Madam, I notice that your forehead is black. I'm afraid that praying alone cannot solve the problem." There was a hint of indifference in the words of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

The corners of Xue Jinhua's mouth twitched. He clearly heard what she had just said. She raised her head, met his gaze as cold as a pond, and said, "Your Highness, the Honorable Crown Prince, when did you learn to read faces?"

"Whether you believe it or not is entirely up to you."

"Your Highness, please stop joking. I have important matters to attend to, so I will take my leave now." Xue Jinhua didn't want to get entangled with him any more, so she bowed and left in a hurry.

But she was completely unaware that the moment her figure disappeared, a barely perceptible dark light flashed in the eyes of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

So what if you are born with a good life?

Isn't it the end result of being deserted by everyone?

Xue Jinhua returned to her room, her heart pounding wildly.

What exactly does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince mean?

Did he know something?

Thinking about what Master Tiandao said, a terrible thought suddenly appeared in her mind. Could it be...

"Miss, you are finally back." Yinghua's words cut off her thoughts, and Xue Jinhua quickly burned the paper in her hand.

"Miss, the Fourth Master came to see you just now." Yinghua looked confused, not knowing what had happened. She quickly wiped the sweat off Xue Jinhua's forehead. "And the Fourth Master sat in the room for quite a while. Seeing that you hadn't returned yet, he left."

"However, before the Fourth Master left, he asked me to convey a message to the young lady."

"What?"
