When they thought about all the hardships that Luo Shang had endured in the manor a few months ago, the servant girls became anxious and couldn't help but cry. Long before the incident with the Luo Family, Situ Jingyu had already warned them, that if this matter were to spread to Leng Shaoyu's ears, all of their relatives would be implicated.

King Hanchao was a popular man in front of Prime Minister Yue Dongyang, so naturally, he had the ability to make lowly people like them die without a burial ground. No matter how hard the ant struggled, it was still powerless and couldn't even take a single blow.

Situ Jingyu's vicious death was nothing to be regretted, but if what she said was true, then if she died, all of their loved ones would lose their lives as well. Therefore, she could only swallow her anger and silently adore Luo Shang.

From the moment they saw the bodyguards supporting the carriage with their curtains, the emotions of the maidservant s were like surging tides that could not be calmed. Their entire hearts were hanging high in the sky, the handkerchief in their hands was naturally clenched tighter as they tiptoed to keep watch.

In the distance, Luo Shang held onto her long sleeve and moved to the side, coldly avoiding the man's hand that was about to support her.

When the pair of simple shoes fell to the ground under the white robes, the maidservant s frowned. Their eyes that had dried up with great difficulty immediately moistened, as they looked at the blurry woman with tears.

Her body had obviously lost weight once again. When she first arrived at the estate, that red clothed prideful woman was breathtakingly beautiful, to the point that it made people jealous and envious. But now, she was as thin as the wind and as tender as willow trees, causing others to feel pity and love.

Whether it was the Duke that gave her more and more injuries, whether it was the vicious torture Situ Jingyu gave her, or the Luo Family's experience, for the past year, all of Luo Shang's suffering was seen by everyone. Everything that she had experienced, even if it was a person who looked at her indifferently, they would still feel deeply hurt, and their heart ached for her strength.

"Princess …" The maidservant s covered their mouths and sobbed silently as they recited the thoughts and respect they had for her in their hearts.

As the woman slowly walked over, everyone kneeled down, bowed their heads and called out to the familiar "servant greets Princess …"

His submissive voice was mixed with the sobs after crying, and even the servant couldn't help but feel her eyes get wet from the emotion.

"Welcome back, Princess Consort …"

"Welcome back, Princess Consort …"

"…"

Her voice resonated beside Luo Shang's ears time and time again. The autumn wind blew down the dead leaves on the tree, and those butterfly-like leaves fluttered in the wind, a bit lonely, a bit drifting.

A pair of eyes that were like the autumn sun and rippling water swirled with a faint vortex. White clothes drifted behind her, covering that frail and transparent body of hers. Just like the gentle voice of the past and the faint, sweet smile on her lips, she said softly, "Quickly, get up."

In the end, the maidservant couldn't help but cry out loud, especially when they saw the woman. When they saw her weakened face, their cries became even more sorrowful and heart-wrenching for Luo Shang.

"Princess, the servant knew that you would definitely return."

"We look forward to you everyday, your beloved Seeds and servant have all secretly left them for you, you …"

As the maidservant talked, they were no longer able to continue. It was as if their throats were blocked by something, and only after Luo Shang left did they find out how good she was.

"Esteemed wangfei, don't leave this place ever again. Don't leave this place …" These were the most sincere words from the bottom of their hearts.

It had been a year, and Luo Shang's happiness had long ago become a deep imprint in their hearts. Other than their parents, she was the only one in this world who didn't despise them and didn't think they were despicable.

Only from Luo Shang did they know that there was still respect in this world for them.

With watery eyes, Luo Shang was just about to speak when she heard that sharp voice from behind the crowd. In the end, Prince has brought my sister back. "

Hearing the voice, the maidservant felt their bodies turn cold, cold sweat congealing on their scalp. They hurriedly wiped away the tears on their faces and pressed their heads down before they could wipe them away, until their eyes and tears were completely red, afraid that their actions would displease that person and cause them to hide away carefully.

All the servant retreated on their own accord as a woman walked out from the crowd. She was dressed extravagantly and wore a pearl hairpin, looking much more beautiful than before, as if her eyes were much more comfortable compared to when she looked at Luo Shang.

Situ Jingyu arrogantly raised her slender finger, charmingly pointed at the pearl hairpin, and stared at Luo Shang with enmity. Looking at her weak and sickly appearance, she sneered, and mocked: "Long time no see, how did big sister end up like this, could it be that you're having a bad time? It was no wonder that her sister didn't care about the past. "My beloved husband killed his closest kin, and is even able to freeze everything that is not consoling in the slightest by standing here."

Luo Shang's indifferent eyes did not even stop at Situ Jingyu for a second.

Seeing that she was calm, Situ Jingyu continued, "So what if he brought you back? You think he really loves you? Can you go back to the past? "

When the maidservant heard this, they all became enraged. A little girl stood up and whispered, "Prince's Wife Jing, the Royal Consort just came back. Please don't …"

Without waiting for the girl to finish speaking, the woman stretched out her hand to slap the girl's face. Suddenly, half of her face swelled up as if it was filled with thick bruises.

Situ Jingyu pinched the little girl's chin with her sharp fingers and stared at her with her sinister eyes. Who do you think you are to lecture me, eh? " Her slender fingertips barely missed the flesh of the girl's jaw.

Just as he was worrying that he had nowhere to vent his anger, he found someone.

"Who do you think you are to dare to act arrogantly in front of me?" With a cold gaze, Luo Shang grabbed the little girl's wrist and pulled her behind him.

All of the servants secretly raised their heads, feeling that they had misheard, they glanced at Luo Shang suspiciously. She hadn't thought that the patient and patient wangfei would say such words as well.

Situ Jingyu was even more shocked, her complacent face immediately drooped down, her eyes were filled with anger and hatred, she grinded her teeth, and glared at Luo Shang.

"You …" She was just about to open her mouth and curse when she saw the man walking towards her. She immediately turned her face and forced a smile to look at Luo Shang, holding her hands in the same way as she pretended to wipe her tears.

"Sister, you're finally back. Do you know how much the prince misses your sister? Your sister also hopes that the prince can find your sister as soon as possible." He rolled his eyes, pretending to welcome the man as he paid attention to him from time to time.

"Thank God, I'm finally back. It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back. It's not a waste for you to spend all your time searching for and praying to your sister. Your highness finally found your elder sister with great difficulty." She held Luo Shang's hands even more tightly, as if they had just parted for a few days and missed each other's close relatives. Situ Jingyu's actions were too similar, it was as though it could completely change her plans and achieve her goals.

However, Luo Shang did not struggle free from her grasp as arrogantly as before. Instead, she smiled and said softly, "My heart is with him, how can she leave?"

When the man behind her heard this, the faint corner of his lips slightly curved into a smile.

Regardless of whether it was unintentional or not, Leng Shaoyu was still very satisfied with these words.

The smile on Situ Jingyu's face was a little stiff, but she had been trying her best to endure it. When she saw the man again, she hurriedly let go of Luo Shang's hand and intimately wrapped it around the man's arm, pretending to be charming. While wiping away the tears that were faintly discernible at the corners of her eyes, she spoke in a tender and gentle voice, "Prince, Jing Yu has to thank the heavens properly for allowing you to find me in the end."

Leng Shaoyu's gaze was always on the cold woman in front of his. Her indifference was unable to hide the cold aura being emitted from her body.

Leng Shaoyu only looked at her, and did not say anything.

Situ Jingyu took the chance to speak submissively: "Your Highness, since Big Sister is back, the authority in this house should be given to Big Sister. But I think that since Big Sister's body isn't well, I am afraid that I cannot overwork myself for the time being.

Since he did not hear Leng Shaoyu's reply, Situ Jingyu's gaze had always been locked onto his body. Presumably, she was taking Luo Shang's feelings into consideration, since when did he want to respect Luo Shang's decision?

This made Situ Bu Fang bear a grudge in mind.

Following the man's line of sight, Situ respectfully asked Luo Shang: "What do you think, elder sister?"

Luo Shang had never been close to the secular world. She was like an elegant water hibiscus, indifferent to everything, neither fighting nor fighting for it. It was only because Situ Jingyu had caught on to her point that she was able to calculate her position, and it was the same this time. She had predicted that Luo Shang's personality would only be like this, and that she would absolutely not care about the Duke Palace's authority. It used to be like this, but now it will be the same.

Furthermore, with how arrogant she was, given that Leng Shaoyu harmed the Luo Family, she definitely wouldn't be willing to accept Leng Shaoyu as his consort even if she were to hate him in her heart.

Unexpectedly, Luo Shang's answer, had completely overturned Situ Jingyu's thoughts and played with her wisdom that was full of confidence.

Luo Shang slowly turned around with a sweet smile on her face.

She said, "I've had to trouble little sister to take care of the estate for me for so long. Now that I'm back and am in the position of consort, why would I bother you again?"

Situ Jingyu frowned. She had never thought that something like this would happen, and she was evidently a little anxious. It's alright, helping big sister is what Jingyu should do. "

Luo Shang chuckled. Since you're the principal wife, you should do what you're supposed to do. Similarly, as the younger sister in the side chamber, you also have your own small matters to attend to. How can I not care about your feelings? " "In the blink of an eye, she looked towards Leng Shaoyu. Please rest assured, your highness. "

Leng Shaoyu looked at her with his deep eyes. From start to finish, he did not speak, and the corner of his lips maintained that faint curve. He could not make out his expression, and only after Mo Yun had reported everything in a low voice, did he pause for a moment, and then turn around to leave.

When he left, Situ Jingyu's face immediately changed. Her crafty mouth no longer held the beauty that a noble family member would have. She looked at Luo Shang angrily and said: "This is truly unexpected, you actually know how to use such tricks. It seems that I have underestimated you."

Situ Jingyu took a step closer, stood in front of her, and laughed sinisterly. Luo Shang, since you are able to return, you should be clear about this as well. This time, I will definitely not let you off. "

Hearing this, Luo Shang only gave a gentle smile, turned to her, and said indifferently: "You think that I would let you off?"

"Don't forget, you still owe me a life."

Zhuo Jin's life.

Seeing her leave with a disdainful cold smile, Situ Jingyu trembled from head to toe. Luo Shang... I will definitely make you regret it. "
