These words made me feel comfortable and affirmed my sovereignty. My life in this mansion was much more comfortable. A person doesn't have to be rich or powerful, but they must be rich and powerful.
/p
But there was still a madam in Tsukasawa Dō eyeing covetously. I teased Prince Yue and asked, "Prince, I haven't congratulated you on marrying two wives today. How do you plan to deal with my third sister?"
/p
Prince Yue narrowed his eyes and felt a little helpless. "I also don't know whether this Third Miss Tang knows about this matter or not. If she doesn't know and was fooled into getting into this prince's bridal sedan chair, then it's fine. It's not like this prince can't raise a woman. After a few days, she can fabricate an identity and leave this prince's residence. She can also live a life of riches and honor. But if she knows and wants to get married by chance, then this prince will personally be ruthless and break her ambition!"
/p
"Oh! I was thinking that Prince would take pity on my sister and let her live under my nose. "
/p
Prince Yue asked me, "What use do you have?"
/p
"To think that you are a prince," I said, "To think that you are this stupid. This is not a fake vase bracelet. This is a living person. If we let her out of the mansion, we won't be able to control her mouth. If she were to leak any information, it would be a disaster. But if she were to stay in the mansion, she would still be a female member of the family. If she were to cause any trouble, there would be people watching her every move. Wouldn't she not dare to act blindly without thinking?"
/p
Prince Yue said, "It has always been the Wangfei who has the best strategy. This Prince only relies on the Wangfei to live."
/p
Suddenly, there were hurried footsteps outside. But the footsteps were easily stopped by the maidservants guarding the door. They softly reprimanded, "Today is Prince and Wangfei's big day. Why are you in such a hurry to come here with a bitter face? If you ruin Prince's happy occasion, I want to see how you will live in the future. "
/p
"Aiyo, sisters, don't stop me. Something big has happened!"
/p
"No matter how big the matter is, can it be bigger than the matter of the prince's bridal chamber? You'd better go back early and not spoil Wangye's mood. "
/p
Prince Yue also heard the commotion outside. He glanced at me, as if asking for my opinion. My heart is full of blessings. Your subordinates, your courtyard, your mission, you can do whatever you want.
/p
"Fortune Fountain, answer me at the door."
/p
Listening to the Prince's orders, the servant girls at the door no longer obstructed us. I reckoned that the door was opened after we hit them with our fists in resentment. Servants like these were born in the Prince's Mansion, so they knew how to write the two words' etiquette 'better than ordinary people. Although the door was opened, the curtain was still drawn. I peered through the curtain and saw a tall and straight figure kneeling outside. A young man's voice could be heard. "Your Highness, Princess, please forgive this servant. This servant has an important matter to report, so this servant rashly rushed in."
/p
"There's no need for a reason. If this prince wants to punish, then punish. No matter how many reasons you provide, it won't count. “/p
/p
The servant outside choked for a moment. After a pause, he said, "Yes."
/p
I thought about it. I still had to fulfill my duties as a mistress, so I tried to smooth things over and said, "Your Highness, don't scare this child. Since he dared to rush in, he must have an important matter to report to the Prince. Outside, you're called Fortune Fountain, right? Hurry up and tell me what happened. If the Prince wants to punish you in the future, you can come find me. I'll make the decision for you. "
/p
"Many thanks, Princess. With Princess overseeing the mansion, it really is a clear and bright world under the rule of the Lord." Fortune Fountain's mouth was sweet. He first praised me for a while, then his attitude became serious as he said, "Replying to Your Highness, Princess, a servant just came to report that the Sun Family has been robbed."
/p
Sun Family? This family sounded a bit familiar. I first asked Prince Yue beside me, "What Sun Family?"
/p
Prince Yue didn't seem to like the Sun Family, nor did he want to talk about this family. However, since I asked, he still replied to my question. He used a rigid tone and said, "It's the family that fought with this prince for the Princess today, the Sun Family of Guang Shan. Their father is the assistant minister of the Ministry of Appointments, so they can be considered to have some connections."
/p
I suddenly understood, "Oh, the Sun Family. But the Sun Family is in trouble, how come the whole city knows about it? "This sentence was raised in a higher pitch, and was directed outside the door.
/p
"It can't be a coincidence, it can't be a coincidence, master," Fortune Fountain's voice was trembling with urgency. If I didn't know, I would have thought that he went to steal it, "The Sun Family has been robbed, and the entire family has been wiped out by the robbers!"
/p
The Prince and I both blanked at the same time, a chill rising in our hearts.
/p
Today was supposed to be the Prince and the Sun Family's big day, but the Prince acted like a muddleheaded gentleman and went to steal someone else's bride. The Sun Family's happy event had probably become the laughingstock of the entire city. However, before they could laugh for long, the entire family was wiped out. No one was willing to believe that the Prince was not involved.
/p
I patted the Prince's shoulder with great compassion. At this moment, I spoke to him with the sympathy of brothers, "Prince, I didn't think that you would also have enemies all over the city. What's the matter with the Sun Family?"
/p
Prince Yue gritted his teeth, "This matter has nothing to do with me. Although the Sun Family is mediocre and was used as a tool by others, I still snatched his bridal sedan in front of everyone and ruined a marriage. I feel guilty."
/p
I thought about it, the Sun Family was probably the same as Tsukasawa Dō's Third Young Lady, a pawn that charged and broke through enemy lines. I just don't know how much they know.
/p
"Prince," I said, "You have to help me keep an eye on the Tsukasawa Dō's Third Young Lady."
/p
Prince Yue nodded, "I've already given the order. Don't worry. With me here, Province Yue won't be able to do anything!" He looked at me and sighed, "We've wasted our time tonight. I'm going to change my clothes. You should change too. Let's go out for a trip."
/p
I was extremely unwilling. If I had stayed at home to think of strategies and come up with some ideas, it would have been fine. But now that I had to personally go to the battlefield, I couldn't help but shiver. The blood flowing like a river and the corpses strewn all over the place was no joke.
/p
Prince Yue was always able to see through my thoughts. He said, "Don't worry. Since the news has already spread, the Capital's Magistrate has already rushed over. I'm just afraid that those idiots will spoil the scene. After all, it's the Sun Family. I had just crossed paths with him and his entire family was wiped out. Also …"
/p
I knew what Prince Yue meant by that. Why did the Sun Family have a conflict with the Prince of Yue? Wasn't it all because of the Prime Minister's Tang Residence?
/p
It seemed that the Tang Residence wasn't simple. From the beginning of the Tian Xuan Rehmannia Glutinosa incident to now, it seemed that they had a hand in every incident. My thoughts turned, and I bargained with the Prince. "Your Highness, I can go if you want. It's just a matter of changing my clothes and helping out. But I'm not a servant who will sell my body to you. Your Highness, you have to give me some benefits so that I'm willing to work for you."
/p
The Prince of Yue was combing his hair. Today, for the sake of getting married, he broke his previous standard of simplicity for the first time. The jadeite and gold enamel crown on his head was really gaudy. It was so colorful that it made my eyes dizzy. When he heard that I was doing business with him, he tilted his head to look at me. The work in his hands was no longer busy. He directly let go of his hands. Thousands of ink silk flowed down like a waterfall. It was really like brocade embroidery. It was too beautiful to behold.
/p
It was really a pity. If he hadn't been born with a disaster, I'm afraid that this handsome young man would be able to charm half the city's young girls.
/p
Prince Yue said, "This Prince's Residence is yours. What else do you want?"
/p
I said, "Prince Yue, please allow me. First, I'm not lustful. Second, I don't want money. It's just that I have some doubts in my heart that I want your Highness to clear up. Besides, this large Prince's Residence is written with your Highness's name. I'm just a housekeeper. I don't dare to take over a magpie's nest. I don't know my place. "
/p
Prince Yue was surprised. He sighed and said, "You, ah, are still the same as before." p
/p
His last sentence was said in a low voice, but I heard it clearly. I couldn't help but ask, "What was before?"
/p
"There was nothing before," Prince Yue said, "All right, go change your clothes. Now that you're finally out of the shackles of the Prime Minister's Office, if you want to know anything, I'll tell you everything when I return. But the matter of the Sun Family can't be delayed any longer. "
/p
"I know, I know." How could a Prince be like this? Close? Ao Xie Fu Jue? This lotus flower? Terracotta?? Framing? Bu Lu Xun? Yao? Zhi? Dead building? Shu!?
/p
Just like that, Prince Yue and I were on our wedding night. We wore night clothes and a mask. We chased away the maidservants and grannies. We tiptoed and carefully ran around the beams of the houses. We were once again thieves.
/p
Prince Yue's Residence was at the edge of the Imperial City. It was a good location in the center of the city. The Sun Family didn't pay much attention to it. Even with our speed, we couldn't help but run for half an hour. We ran from the northernmost side to the southernmost side. I panted and said to the Prince, "This Sun Family, they found such a remote place."
/p
In front of me, Wangye replied, "The Sun family is not an illustrious family. It was only because they used your family's connections that they were able to move into the capital. However, in this land where every inch of land is worth its weight in gold, without an ancestor's accumulated good karma, how could a small family be able to easily buy a residence?"
/p
I quickly clarified, "What do you mean my family? I married into your Residence."
/p
It was July. The dry wind blew Prince Yue's laughter into my ears, "Yes, Princess is now a woman. She's no longer a girl from the Tang family. She's a woman from the Yang Tang Clan."
/p
After running for another half a shichen (1 shichen = 1 shichen = 2 hours), we ran from the side of the almost full moon to the top of our head. Prince Yue stopped and said to me, "We're here." Actually, he didn't need to say it, I could smell the bloody smell from far away.
/p
The Sun residence was just a small residence with three entrances. It was neither luxurious nor exquisite. However, this residence was near the city gate. After crossing a street, one would be able to climb over the city wall and leave. The surrounding area was filled with small, dilapidated families. With this residence standing here, wouldn't it attract the attention of others?
/p
The Prince and I were lying on the roof of the house next door. If we didn't straighten up, we wouldn't be able to see what was behind the walls of the Sun Residence. Prince Yue said, "Let's go in and take a look."
/p
"I saw the people from the yamen put down a seal," I reminded her. "Who knows, there might be a coroner inside performing an autopsy. If we go in like this, aren't we afraid of being seen?"
/p
"Since Father Emperor ascended the throne, he has been very particular about these things," Prince Yue said, "There is only one rule. The coroner must not perform an autopsy in the middle of the night. I don't know why, but it's written in the law. I can recite it for you."
/p
I rolled my eyes and said, "Forget it."
/p
Birds of a feather flock together. Both of us were skilled in martial arts. With two flips, we had already entered the manor. We had been on the eaves for a long time. I was not used to stepping on solid ground. As soon as I lifted my foot, the sticky mud emitted a fishy smell. It really did stain my shoes.
