Birds were chirping outside. Xue Ronghua slightly narrowed her eyes and saw the light outside the window. She had chatted with Chu Zongge last night too late and had only slept for four hours.

Little Zhui knocked on the door and said: "Miss, are you awake? Master Duanwang has prepared a carriage for us."

After Xue Ronghua washed up and dressed up, she opened the door and saw Chu Zongge leaning against the cherry tree in the courtyard.

"Where did Little Zhui go?" Xue Ronghua asked.

Chu Zongge walked closer with a face brimming with a warm smile, "She went to eat dessert. You slept so late yesterday, are you awake now?"

Xue Ronghua laughed bitterly: "Even if you don't wake up, you need to wake up first. You need to take advantage of the fact that there aren't many palace maids around to quickly return to your Prime Minister's Mansion."

Chu Zongge laughed: "Don't worry, I have already prepared the carriage."

Xue Ronghua covered her mouth and laughed secretly: "The Xinyang Hall Sears are like the rain, the sun is warm, such beautiful scenery, I really can't bear to go back."

Chu Zongge said with a faint smile, "Is the quasi wangfei unwilling to part with her Xinyang Hall, Lv Ying and Sunlight, or with her Xinyang Hall?"

Xue Ronghua pouted, "I only praised a little, Prince Duan is thinking too much."

"This king did not think too much," Chu Zongge's eyes carried a trace of evil. "This king had thought that the palace maid from last night served me well and made the quasi wangfei reluctant to leave."

Xue Ronghua was speechless for a moment, "... That palace maid is so gentle and considerate, she is much more attractive than the master of the palace. "

Chu Zongge tilted his head and looked at her, "If you had married into the Prince Duan Palace earlier, you would have had such a gentle and considerate palace maid waiting on you everyday."

Xue Ronghua sighed, "This matter will have to be carried out after the battle. The Madam Ye s of the Xue Residence and Xue Liuhua are very noisy with each other."

Chu Zongge was a little disappointed: "What are your plans after this?"

"Let's do it when the time comes. Xue Liuhua seems to have gotten involved with the Prince Jin …"

Chu Zongge laughed: "You wouldn't think that just because Prince Jin sent Xue Liuhua back to the Prime Minister's Mansion last night, he would think that the Prince Jin was interested in Xue Liuhua, right?"

"Otherwise? After Xue Liuhua performed the Spring Dancing song in the Bell Sound Hall, Prince Jin's eyes were filled with infatuation. Last night, the two sat in the same carriage, who knows how much their relationship increased. "

"Seems like you don't understand the Prince Jin," Chu Zongge sighed, "There are many beautiful women around who knows how many people who are trying to improve their relationship with him, Xue Liuhua is just another person."

Xue Ronghua remained silent. Chu Zongge patted her shoulder and said, "Prince Jin will not marry Xue Liuhua as his wangfei, you can be at ease."

The carriage Chu Zongge prepared for her was simple and did not attract anyone's attention. Little Zhui and Xue Ronghua looked through the gaps in the window to check if anyone had passed by. When they finally got out of the palace, the two of them heaved a sigh of relief.

"The young miss is really bad to the young miss. She didn't give you a carriage last night, nor did she give you one this morning." Little Zhui said angrily.

Xue Ronghua sneered, "She has been bad to me, cruel to me, poisonous to me in the past, why would she care about this now?"

The two were in the sedan chair talking when they suddenly heard the sound of swords unsheathing outside the sedan. Xue Ronghua was used to hearing these sounds on the battlefield in her previous life.

The four or five men's footsteps were getting closer and closer. A sharp sword suddenly pierced through the curtain of the sedan chair, and a cold light flashed in her eyes. They were only three or four inches away from her.

"Ah, be careful, Miss!"

Xue Ronghua did not care about Little Zhui's surprised cry, and used her full strength to kick the person behind the sword.

The man painfully threw away his sword and quickly fell backwards. Xue Ronghua quickly took the sharp sword, and cleanly killed the two people beside her who wanted to attack her.

Little Zhui watched the scene in the palanquin with fear in her heart. Her young miss had been really impressive in this period of time, not only was she able to match up to the First Miss, she could even beat back enemies by fighting with fewer people.

Xue Ronghua held her sword and stared at the remaining masked assassin, and asked coldly: "Who sent you?"

The masked killer opened his eyes wide and rushed forward in a hurry. Xue Ronghua slashed her throat and instantly killed him.

"Little Zhui, are you alright?" Xue Ronghua threw the blood soaked sword away and asked gently.

Little Zhui looked at the bloodied corpses on the ground, she tried her best to suppress the fear in her heart and said: "I'm fine, young miss is fine?"

In her previous life, she had seen many tragic scenes running through the battlefield.

Xue Ronghua opened up a corner of the black clothed man who died last, and discovered that there was a hanging order badge inside, with large red words engraved on it — Ye Residence.

She couldn't help but tighten her grip on the plate. Isn't Ye Residence the same as and the Madam Ye, they actually sent assassins to kill her, they were truly as poisonous as a snake or a scorpion.

When Little Zhui saw her dark expression, she asked curiously, "Miss, where did these robbers come from?"

Xue Ronghua waved for her to get off the palanquin quickly. "This is not a robber, this is a killer."

Little Zhui panicked: "Assassin? You came here to kill the young mistress? "

Xue Ronghua nodded, then gave her a charming smile: "Your Young Miss is exceptionally beautiful, and has been noticed by others."

She used a bit more force with her finger and the token immediately shattered into pieces.

The day of her marriage to the Prince Duan Palace was soon to be set. Madam Ye and Xue Liuhua were so determined to court death in front of her, so she might as well become the only one to inherit the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Xue Liuhua looked at herself in the bronze mirror coldly. In the past two days, her hair had lost a lot of weight, and her face was pale without any trace of the usual rosy complexion.

Brightmoon came in from outside and whispered, "Eldest Miss, Second Miss is back."

Xue Liuhua's face stiffened, "Didn't I say not to call her Second Young Miss, why are you so forgetful?"

Brightmoon said anxiously, "Yes, yes …" Xue Ronghua is back. "

"She came back in a sedan chair?"

Mingyue shook her head, "She and Little Zhui were walking all the way back."

Xue Liuhua heaved a sigh of relief. "That's good, the Prime Minister's Mansion will not be far from the palace, it's enough for me to suffer."

She let Mingyue come over and help her comb her hair, and after carefully dressing up, she covered her haggard appearance, and went to Madam Ye's room.

Seeing that the broken heart Xue Liuhua had finally calmed down, she was extremely happy, "What, you aren't resting in the room? What are you doing here?"

Xue Liuhua laughed heartily: "That slut walked back with both her feet from the Imperial Palace this morning. Presumably, she stood at the Palace's entrance all night last night."

Madam Ye's hands trembled, she gritted her teeth and laughed coldly: "Being able to walk back with both of my feet is already a great fortune."

Xue Liuhua was startled, "What does mother mean by saying that?"

The Madam Ye waved her hand to dismiss the bright moon, and whispered into Xue Liuhua's ears: "I know that Xue Ronghua will be returning to her residence this morning, so I'll have someone lay in ambush on the road from the Imperial Palace to the Prime Minister's Mansion …"

Xue Liuhua was shocked, and asked: "Mother, you sent assassins to kill Xue Ronghua?"

Madam Ye looked at her and nodded, "This matter was indeed inappropriate, but seeing how sad you were yesterday, you couldn't hold back your anger. You wanted to kill her, but in the end, she still escaped."

Xue Liuhua bit her lips and said: "Mother did not do this impulsively. secretly sending assassins to kill us on the way, it is a good method. This thorn in my side is something that I cannot tolerate, I should die a long time ago."

"Sigh, your Ye Residence hasn't invited any good people, and you can't even stop me. That slut has already returned to the manor, but the assassins that were sent have yet to reply."

Xue Liuhua said hatefully: "This slut's luck is really good, she can even dodge this."

Xue Ronghua intentionally walked in front of Xue Liuhua, who had just come out of Ye Residence, and smiled at her: "Big sis slept very well last night. Prince Jin brought it back himself indeed.

Xue Liuhua thought back to what she discussed with Prince Jin in the palanquin last night and looked at her coldly: "Little sister must have slept very well last night, with so many people in the palace, it would be a good place for her to rest."

Xue Ronghua smiled slightly, "Many thanks for elder sister's concern, elder sister seems to be really concerned about little sister, I even specially sent a few people this morning to pick her up."

Xue Liuhua was startled. Could it be that the people sent by Ye Residence did not miss them?

Xue Ronghua looked at Xue Liuhua's incomparably stiff face and decided on this attack in her heart.

She lightly stepped forward, approaching Xue Liuhua, and whispered in her ear: "It's just that, ah, the person Big Sis sent to fetch Little Sis was too useless, she died under Little Sis's sword before even making much noise. Little Sis had passed through their throats, and then put it back on, just like Big Sis used to sew clothes."

Seeing that Xue Liuhua's face was drained of color, she smiled charmingly, "Although they are a bunch of trash, they still eat a lot of food. When I wiped their necks with my sword, the blood in their necks splashed three feet high, almost dirtying my sister's clothes."

Xue Liuhua's entire body shivered, "You … "How are you …"

"How am I?" Xue Ronghua laughed, "What about you? What about your mother? How could you be so heartless as to kill your own sister?! "

Xue Liuhua looked at Xue Ronghua's angry face and couldn't help but laugh. "Your own sister? "Little sister, all these years have gone to waste. You are not my little sister, you are just a lowly concubine, a slut born of a slut!

Xue Liuhua raised her hand in exasperation, Xue Ronghua easily suppressed her and pressed her fiercely against the wall, "I was born of a lowly woman, and you were born of a wicked woman.

Xue Liuhua could not struggle free from her grip on him. They were both thin women, how could this bitch have such strength?

"Bitch, let me go!" Xue Liuhua struggled in humiliation on the wall.

Xue Ronghua laughed disdainfully, slightly releasing the strength in his hands, and used his hands to grasp her chin, staring at her with shining eyes.

"Miss Xue, if Prince Jin knew how vicious you are, would he still care about you?"

"I am the young miss of the Prime Minister's house. Which prince would dare to look down on me? No matter how vicious I am, I am still better than a slut like you."

Xue Ronghua pinched her face and turned it left and right a few times, then faintly added more strength, "You're just a slut, and your tongue is numb. Aren't you tired of it?"

Xue Liuhua felt like his lower jaw was being pinched into pieces by her, and was still holding on: "Hurry up and let me go, be careful that I don't tell my father and he'll severely punish you."

"Hmph, punish me?" Xue Ronghua released his hands and pushed her back, causing her to heavily smash into the wall.

Xue Liuhua held her forehead in pain and said angrily: "You bastard …"

Xue Ronghua lightly placed a finger on her lips, and happily smiled, "Big Sis just reflected on the wall a few times, did you lose your memory again?"

Xue Liuhua recalled the humiliation of being pressed against the wall and could only hold it in.

Xue Ronghua was blessed, "Big sister is intelligent, little sister is blessed."
