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

"My lord, the ceremony has already begun. Do we still need to go? And... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here too." The servant beside him reminded.

"Get out. Go if you want to." Zhao Yuxuan no longer had his usual gentle and polite manner. He became extremely irritable and restless. He originally looked extremely ugly after the burns, but at this moment he looked as ferocious as a ghost, as if he was going to eat the servant alive.

The way he is now, let alone meeting the Crown Prince, even if he goes out to meet people, he will be pointed at. This is even more painful than killing him.

.........

Fan Ge'er's adoption ceremony had already ended, and Xue Jinhua had not seen Zhao Yuxuan appear.

Yinghua asked curiously, "Miss, doesn't our Marquis value Brother Fan the most? How come the Marquis didn't show up at such a big adoption ceremony for Brother Fan?"

Xue Jinhua smiled, her lips slightly raised, a sly light flashed in her eyes, and she said, "Perhaps your Lord has other more important things to do!"

After hearing this, Yinghua frowned slightly and looked at Xue Jinhua in confusion, as if she was thinking about the deeper meaning of her words.

At this time, Sakura was even more confused. What could possibly happen to the Marquis? Could it be more important than such a big event as Fan'er's adoption ceremony?

It seems that the so-called true love is only based on appearance. I want to see if Xue Qing'er will still be so infatuated with Zhao Yuxuan after what happened today.

Thinking of this, Xue Jinhua couldn't help but reveal a faint smile.

At this time, Fan Ge'er's adoption ceremony was officially completed, and he officially became the eldest grandson of Prince Zhuang's Mansion, which meant that he would inherit the glory and status of the palace.

Zhao Yufei was busy entertaining guests at the banquet, and Xue Jinhua was looking for Zhao Yuxuan everywhere in the mansion, but she couldn't find him.

After a while, Yinghua came running over, panting and said, "Miss, there's no need to look for him. I just asked the people in the mansion, and they said that the Marquis has left the mansion."

Xue Jinhua's eyes flickered as she looked into the distance... She saw Xue Qing'er's mouth curved with happiness and satisfaction because her son had returned to her.

Xue Jinhua smiled and said, "Oh, by the way, Yinghua, our Lord was burned today. We have to find a good doctor for him."

After the meal, everyone stood up and respectfully sent the prince off. Xue Jinhua also followed the crowd and bowed to the prince to say goodbye.

At this moment, Xue Jinhua suddenly said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince, please stay." Everyone was shocked when they heard this. They didn't expect Xue Jinhua to dare to stop the Crown Prince.

The Xue family members were even more nervous, especially the second brother Xue, who could hardly hide his anger. He couldn't help but whispered, "Xue Jinhua, who are you? How dare you stop the Crown Prince?"

However, the prince did not seem to care. He raised his chin slightly and looked at Xue Jinhua calmly. His voice was low and steady, with a bit of coolness, as if a breeze swept into Xue Jinhua's heart. Despite this, Second Brother Xue did not dare to refute the prince easily, and could only stand aside silently.

Xue Jinhua bit her lips tightly, took a deep breath, and then slowly raised her head. She knew that now was not the time to retreat, and she had to face everything in front of her. Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not say anything, the natural sense of oppression on him made Xue Jinhua's heart tighten and her heartbeat accelerated.

She took a deep breath, calmed herself down as much as possible, and then said in a steady tone: "Your Highness, please forgive me for being so presumptuous, but my Lord was severely burned while trying to save someone in the mansion. I am worried that my Lord will develop a chronic illness, so I beg Your Highness to give my Lord an imperial physician to treat him."

Although there was such a big commotion in the backyard just now, the prince did not go to check it out in person and was not clear about the specific situation, so he turned to look at the guard beside him.

The guard stepped forward and recounted in detail what had just happened. Only then did the prince understand the whole story.

At this moment, the prince frowned slightly, wondering in his heart, this marquis actually went to save the prince's wife? This sounded a bit absurd. However, since there were so many people present, the prince would naturally not refuse, and said: "Seeing that you have such deep feelings for your marquis, I am also very pleased. When I return to the palace, I will definitely ask my father for this favor."

Hearing this, she quickly bowed and thanked him: "Thank you, Your Highness!"

After the prince left, the discussions around him fluttered like leaves blown by the wind.

"This Marquis is really blessed. He has ignored his wife for so many years, but when he was injured, his wife took the risk to beg His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to reward him with an imperial physician. This friendship is really rare."

"Yes! Yes! Those who don't know would think that the Marquis was injured in order to save her!"

"..."

Everyone was talking, but Xue Jinhua seemed not to hear anything and quickly left in a carriage.

However, only the people of the Xue family looked at Xue Jinhua as if they wanted to burn her to ashes.

Brother Xue couldn't help but frown and asked, "What on earth does she want to do?"

On the surface, she seemed to be helping Zhao Yuxuan, but in fact she confirmed the relationship between Zhao Yuxuan and Xue Qing'er.

It can be predicted that before long, the whole Kyoto will be filled with the news that Zhao Yuxuan was injured while trying to save the Crown Princess of Prince Zhuang's Mansion.

"No matter how she tries, she will never be able to replace Qing'er's position." A cold light flashed in the eyes of the fourth brother Xue, and he turned to the second brother Xue and said, "Go and inform Zhao Yuxuan and ask him to act as soon as possible."

……

Before Xue Jinhua even stepped into the mansion, she could feel a depressing atmosphere permeating the entire courtyard.

As soon as she stepped into the gate, a servant came forward and said, "Madam, the old lady wants to see you. Please come over immediately."

"Oh, the Marquis was injured. I was just planning to go over to take a look!" Xue Jinhua said as if nothing had happened.

The servant looked at the Madam like this and couldn't help but shake his head in his heart. This Madam was really stupid. The corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

Does the Madam really not know or is she just pretending to be dumb?

However, considering how deeply the Madam loves the Marquis, the servant believes that she is truly unaware of the situation.

After entering Zhao Yuxuan's room, Wang couldn't hold back her anger and worry any longer, and started to yell at him, "Xue Jinhua, how did you take care of your husband? You just went to Prince Zhuang's mansion, why did you come back like this? And your injuries are so serious?"

When Wang saw her son being supported and walked in, she almost didn't recognize him. Her son, the once high-spirited, handsome and elegant eldest son! How could he look like this after returning?

Thinking of this, Wang felt so distressed that tears couldn't stop flowing.

In the past, she had always regarded her eldest son as her pride. Not only was he good-looking, but his charming face had attracted countless noble ladies in Kyoto circles. But now, everything has changed.

When Wang saw the burned Zhao Yuxuan, her heart ached and she almost cried. She originally thought that even if her son was injured, he would get better as long as he was well taken care of. However, when she saw her son's black and dirty appearance, her heart completely sank. After her son was washed, she found that half of his hair on the top of his head was burned, which made Wang very distressed. But fortunately, the hair can still grow out slowly in the future, it just takes some time. However, when she carefully examined her son's injuries, she found that several parts of his scalp had been burned, and they were all in places that were difficult to cover.

The handsome eldest son in the past has now turned into an ugly monster. Wang was so angry that her face turned pale and her heart ached.

After finding out the whole story, Wang didn't think it was her son's fault at all. Instead, she put all the blame on Xue Jinhua.

"Mother, you really wronged me!" Xue Jinhua explained aggrievedly, "It was the Marquis who wanted to do the right thing and save people in the fire. How could I have thought that the Marquis would be so kind-hearted! Besides, after we entered the palace, my eldest sister took me to the women's family. I thought the Marquis would be with the men in the front yard, but who would have thought that he was not in the front yard, but ran to the backyard..."

"Xue Jinhua, when did you learn to talk back?" Wang saw that reasoning was not working, so she simply showed off her power as a mother-in-law. "If I say it's your fault, then it's your fault." She widened her eyes, her gaze full of majesty and dissatisfaction.

Xue Jinhua was not angry, and said obediently: "Mother, you are right, it's all my fault. So when I came back, I told the Crown Prince about it, and asked him to reward an imperial physician to treat the Marquis personally." Her tone was calm and gentle, as if she was just stating an insignificant matter.

"What? Xue Jinhua, say it again?" Wang's face turned pale as paper in an instant, her body trembling, and she almost couldn't stand steadily. "You actually went to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for help?" Her voice was sharp and trembling, full of fear and despair.

It's over, it's over, what should I do? Wang was extremely anxious. If the imperial physician came, the news of her eldest son's disfigurement would surely spread throughout the capital, and their mansion would become the object of everyone's ridicule. This consequence was unbearable for her.

With a loud bang...

At this moment, Xue Jinhua admired Wang's panicked expression, and at the same time heard the sound of Zhao Yuxuan throwing things in the room. The corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile. For Xue Jinhua, this moment made her feel extremely satisfied and happy.

"Mother, I was just worried because I saw that the Marquis was seriously injured, so I went to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for help. I believe that the imperial physician is very skilled and will be able to cure the Marquis, so please don't be sad." Xue Jinhua said cautiously.

"Get out, get out..." Wang couldn't bear it anymore. Like an enraged lioness, she was completely furious.

How could he not understand his own son? He usually cared about his appearance the most. If someone saw his ugly appearance now, it would be more painful for him than killing him!

Thinking of this, Xue Jinhua pouted in grievance, feeling sad: I am doing this for your own good, but why can't you understand me? But she still pretended to be heartbroken and turned around and left "uncomfortable".

......

At the same time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was very true to his promise. That evening, the imperial physician arrived at the Marquis's residence.

Zhao Yuxuan had suffered a heavy blow at this time, and no one wanted to see him, but the imperial physician was a reward from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince after all, and he did not dare to refuse easily. So Zhao Yuxuan had to bite the bullet and let the imperial physician enter the room to check on his condition.

Wang and Xue Jinhua waited outside the door. When the doctor finished examining the patient and walked out, Wang immediately went to meet him and asked anxiously, "Doctor Zhang, how is my son?"

Imperial Physician Zhang stroked his beard and comforted her, "Madam, you don't have to worry too much. Your son is fine. He just has some flesh wounds. But..."

"But what?" Wang asked nervously.

Imperial Physician Zhang sighed, "It's just that the Marquis' scalp is severely damaged. Although I have cured some of it, the area is too large. In the future, hair in some places may never grow again..."

The pain in my heart is much more painful than the pain in my body.

She didn't know why she felt so happy at this moment.

She couldn't help but curl her lips, thinking: "Hasn't Zhao Yuxuan charmed many noble ladies with this face? Then she wants to see how you can act like a demon after cutting off your capital for being coquettish."
