The mistress is reborn, no one who bullies me can escape

In short, she was convinced that she was drunk and out of her mind... When the two of them finally reached the moment where they could be honest with each other, with the courage brought by the alcohol, she poured out all the words that she had buried deep in her heart and were full of praise for him without reservation.

Words like "Second Master is so handsome, his features are flawless as if carefully carved, his skin is as delicate and smooth as jade, and the touch is indescribable..." came out of her mouth one after another.

But she never expected that now she was told that not only was she not drunk at all, but he was also sober. This meant that he had heard every word and sentence she said completely? Moreover, what made her even more embarrassed was that he actually responded to her deeply, as if he had tacitly agreed to her flattering and exaggerated words.

In a sober state, he saw all her flattering and pretentious appearances over and over again, as if he had seen them with his own eyes.

At this moment, she really wanted to find a hole to crawl into, she was so ashamed.

After all, as the mistress of the house for two lifetimes, he has always been a strict and polite person who abides by the rules. But now he has done something so unconventional and out of the ordinary. Would he feel that he is too flashy and undecent?

When the prince heard the news, his expression looked extremely strange. However, as a prince, he had already seen the ups and downs of the world. On the surface, he was still able to remain calm in the face of praise or criticism. What he felt deep in his heart was unknown to others.

But his inner state of mind was exactly the same as Xue Jinhua's. At this moment, he was really filled with endless shame and wished he could find a crack in the ground to hide in and bury himself deeply.

The feeling became stronger and stronger, and I even began to blame Zhou's mother. I kept thinking in my heart, why did she mention this matter at this time?

Thinking back to last night, he had only planned to have a few drinks and let go of his usual reserve as a nobleman. However, when he saw the coy look of the person under him, with skin as white as snow but flushed, his rationality collapsed instantly and his behavior became absurd and reckless, as if everything was out of control.

And those words of praise seemed to flow out of his mouth naturally without any thought.

Huahua, you are so beautiful, I like you so much, I really like you, you are beautiful, your heart is even more beautiful, your whole body exudes incomparable beauty, I like to see you like this shy look.

Whenever he thought of having her, his heart was filled with indescribable joy.

In short, he was like a possessed man, changing all kinds of ways to tease and torture her, and every time she begged for mercy, he would always comfort her gently and say the most touching words of love, making her immersed in the atmosphere of love and unable to extricate herself.

He originally thought that she was as intoxicated by the alcohol as he was, and that she must have completely forgotten the words that he had blurted out. Even if she might have remembered some of them, she would definitely not take them to heart.

However, now I realized that she was not drunk at all.

In this case, wouldn't she have heard everything that was said last night...clearly and clearly?

Xue Jinhua's face was filled with shock and her eyes were filled with disbelief.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also had a ridiculous look on his face, showing an expression of disbelief.

The atmosphere was so awkward that it seemed to suffocate people.

But Mother Zhou didn't notice anything wrong with it at all, and continued to chatter, "But even if you drink lemonade, you have to drink less. After all, it's cold water..."

"Okay, Mother Zhou, I understand. You go down first." Xue Jinhua was extremely panicked, and when she looked at the prince's face, she looked extremely uncomfortable.

Mother Zhou caught a glimpse of the prince out of the corner of her eye, bowed quickly, and then retreated politely.

As Mother Zhou left, the awkward atmosphere did not seem to dissipate, causing them both to fall into deep thought.

The scene was extremely awkward and a weird atmosphere was still spreading.

Xue Jinhua lowered his head, looking like a child who had done something wrong, with a hint of uneasiness in his eyes.

When the prince saw this, he saw that his ears were gradually turning red, as if stained with a faint blush, and asked softly: "Madam, have you eaten?"

Xue Jinhua raised her head slightly, a trace of panic flashed in her eyes, and she replied in a weak voice: "No...no."

Her face turned pale and she looked very guilty. She then explained, "I got up too late this morning and haven't paid my respects to my mother yet."

The prince naturally understood what was going on, but he did not point it out directly. Instead, he said gently, "Mother has always loved quietness. I think there is no need to pay respects to her in the future. After the matter in Nanling is completely settled, we will return to Kyoto."

After hearing this, Xue Jinhua couldn't help but frown slightly, with a puzzled look in her eyes. She said softly: "Second Master, with my current identity, how can I go back?"

At this moment, the awkward atmosphere instantly dissipated, replaced by a solemn atmosphere.

Thinking about returning to Kyoto soon, he will reappear as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and will no longer be the casual Master Qian.

"Madam, please relax. I have already carefully arranged a new identity for you in Kyoto. I will definitely not let you suffer any grievances."

Xue Jinhua believed it without a doubt.

Suddenly, a breeze blew by quietly, and Xue Jinhua suddenly realized that she and the prince were still standing like this, not noticing the passage of time at all.

A drizzle of rain continued to fall, wetting everything around.

Xue Jinhua frowned slightly and said softly, "Why not have someone serve the meal earlier? It looks like the rain won't stop any time soon."

"it is good."

Not long after, the servant in green clothes brought the food hurriedly.

Inside the house, the two sat opposite each other, enjoying the delicious food comfortably, their eyes involuntarily looking towards the silky rain outside the window.

Looking at the scene in the rain, Xue Jinhua's thoughts gradually drifted away. She couldn't help but think of what happened in the morning. She felt worried, so she asked, "Second Master, has the disaster in Nanling been resolved?"

When talking about this, the prince slowly put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hands, a trace of emotion flashed in his eyes, and he said solemnly: "Speaking of which, I really have to thank you very much. This sudden heavy rain will continue for a long time. Fortunately, we can farm with water. This is undoubtedly a big surprise for us."

"However, the people of Nanling believed that they were doomed to be unable to farm this year, so they sold out all their food early on. Now that they can plant food again, a large number of people started to scramble for food like crazy."

"The price of food in the city has risen, but the food from the surrounding areas has not been delivered here. If the food you have stored up before had not been released in time to stabilize the price of food, I am afraid that the entire Nanling would be in chaos right now..."

"Ma'am, you know what? You are my lucky star. It is you who gave me this opportunity to help those in need."

"My husband, please don't be so polite. These grains will indeed increase my wealth in my hands, but for me, my wealth is already enough. Any more is just icing on the cake. But for the people of Nanling, these grains can save lives."

"After all, Nanling has my parents. Even if I have a heart of stone, I can't bear to see the people of Nanling suffer like this, and I don't want them to be implicated and involved in this incident."

"However, my status is limited. Even if I have the food, I am unable to arrange it."

"If I hand over the grain to you, the people will benefit, and my parents will be spared."

"But then again, rather than saying that I helped you, it would be better to say that you helped me solve this problem more properly."

The prince was silent. Was it just a matter of saving the people?

Nanling is the granary. If any problem arises here, it will shake the foundation of the country.

"Do you want to see your parents?"
