When the late emperor was still alive, Consort Yun, could be said to have topped the whole harem, no any concubine could have ever competed with her. Of course, the ninth prince she gave birth to was the most favored one of the late emperor. Therefore, Yan Shengrui had developed his domineering and unreasonable personality at an early age. As he grew older, he also became more perverse, which made the late emperor so mad and threw him out of the imperial palace and let him stay in Weiyuan’s mansion. His intention was to let Duke Zeng discipline him, but he had ignored that in Duke Weiyuan Mansion also had a little devil king, two cousins instantly hit it off, from then on, they got aligned and did anything bad to those big families, the late emperor and Duke Zeng often got so mad at them, but didn’t have the heart to discipline them too hard, which led to the complains of all those big families in the capital. The censor who had the right to file complains to the emperor even had ever complained about them three times a day. One could say those big families could never see the sunlight over their heads.

Until Yan Shengrui came to age and wars rose at the boarders again, ignoring the opposition of the late emperor, Yan Shengrui followed Duke Zeng to the wars, since then, great changes had taken place in his life. And he made his name during the first war and topped all the armies. The emperor was so happy and conferred him as the title of Prince Sheng, and offered him two places Cangzhou and Yunzhou which had the most developed waterway and land transportation, and also ordered people to build the imperial residence in the bustling area closest to the East Palace in the capital, which almost took up more than half of the streets and was the largest and most luxurious residence in the capital except for the imperial palace because of its vast area and magnificent architecture.

Two carriages drove almost more than two hours and finally turned into a broad blue brick alley, after about half an hour, finally stopped, others all followed Ling Jingxuan to jump out of the carriages. As they looked up, not far away was a huge gate as tall as a memorial archway, in front of which was a large space, and on both sides couched two stone lions, which made one feel in awe.

But, the thing that should not happen happened again. They knew they would go back today, but no one was greeting them outside, even no servant watching the gate. The scarlet big gates were closed. Apparently, it was on purpose.

“What’s going on?”

Ling Jingxuan hooked his lips. If those maids at the wharf did it out of their own motivation, what now? Without no one’s order behind, who dare keep showing him attitude again and again?

“Show mercy, my crown princess. Show mercy, please…”

The maid who brought them back, for no reason, suddenly fell on her knees and banged her head against the ground on and on. Ling Jingxuan turned back and handed the baby to Han Fei, flattened his sleeves while asking slowly, “Tell the truth, maybe I will spare your life, otherwise…”

There must be something fishy behind all this. He’d like to see what was hidden in all this.

“Yes, yes, yes, I will tell the truth…It’s…it’s Miss Qin. She…she said the mansion has never received the imperial decree conferring you as the crown princess. So you can’t enter the mansion through the front gate, but only the side gate. Miss Qin will be waiting for you there.”

Others wouldn’t be scared since they hadn’t seen what he was capable of. But she had seen it with her own eyes. A farmer? Apparently another Prince Sheng!

“What?!”

Before Ling Jingxuan threw his anger, the big bun Ling Wen first could not help yelling. Who did not know that only a concubine should take the side gate while the first wife could go through the front gate? What did they take his daddy as?

“Miss Qin? Let her come see me. My daddy is the first wife of my father. How dare she let my daddy go through the side gate?”

The small bun Ling Wu knocked the maid onto the ground with a kick. About things of the big family, Chu Yunhan had taught them long ago, it was just at that time they did not take it to heart, never thought they met it today. Things at the wharf was too complicated, no matter how smart they were, their reaction was a little slow, but this thing was an undisguised insult to them, the small bun was so angry that he even wanted to pull out his little saber and kill them.

“Little master, show mercy, show mercy…”

The maid did not dare to argue back, nor did she dare to cry out for pain, so she could only keep kowtowing to them. In her heart, she was even bitterer than eating coptis. One crown princess was already hard enough to cope with, and now two little overlords unexpectedly? She’d be so dead this time, all because of Miss Qin! It was all her idea, but only got them to suffer.

This kind of behavior was simply bullying, not only the two little buns, even Han Fei and others were super mad, totally having no idea what kind of woman Yan Shengrui had hired as his steward, who even rode over their heads!

“Wen, Wu, stand aside.”

Ling Jingxuan coldly swept over the closed gate, gently stopped his two sons, two little buns were still mad, but they dare not go against his meaning, so they angrily went back to his side, then Ling Jingxuan took two steps forward, “Yan Yi, Yan Shan, I know you are there, get out!”

Usually, Ling Jingxuan would not be so severe even when he was mad, so one could tell how mad he was now. Of course, days of journey on the ship was also part of the reason.

“My crown princess!”

Yan Yi and Yan Shan who were hiding in the dark knew they couldn’t get away from this could only go out, already having cursed Qin Yu in the heart for thousands of times. Who knew she would dare do such things without letting His Highness knew? Did she really think His Highness wouldn’t touch her since he had promised her mother that he could take care of her when her mother died? Damn! They had to inform His Highness as soon as possible!

“Get me all your shadow guards!”

A pair of sharp eyes without even looking at them but only firmly staring at the gate. On this street, there were two mansions, one belonged to Prince Sheng, while the other Prince Hua. At this time the commotion outside had caught people of Prince Hua Mansion’s attention. There was no secret between those big families in the capital. Prince Sheng married a man who could give birth to a child as the first wife, and the two of them had three children. Judging from the situation, they all knew it should be that the demon-like crown princess had come back.

“Yes.”

Although not knowing what he wanted, Yan Yi still obediently took out the specially-made whistle, after blowing it, dozens of shadow guards appeared out of thin air, which was all Yan Shengrui’s arrangement. Although he couldn’t come back with him, he had made full preparations. But anyway he was a big man and had no idea of the dark side of things in the backyard. He knew guarding against the outsiders, but forgot about his own people.

“Knock open the gate for me, if you can’t, tear it down!”

Lightly sweeping over the crowd, his slender finger suddenly pointed at the scarlet gate, everyone on spot got shocked. Is he trying to tear down the mansion?

“My crown princess…”

“Didn’t you hear what I said?”

As Yan Yi came forward trying to say something, Ling Jingxuan threw a malicious stare at him, and instantly frightened him back, and thinking the master’s affection of him, Yan Yi could only order the shadow guards to knock at the gate. The shadow guards almost had no their own feelings, so as order received, tens of them generated their inner force and hit at the gate.

“Duang…”

The large bumping sound suddenly rang, a deafening sound, however strong the gate was, it still couldn’t stand such huge impact force. As it was about to fall, the servants shouted from inside, “Who is running wild other there? Don’t you know this is Prince Sheng’s mansion?”

Then, the gate was opened from inside, a man in his forties who dressed like the housekeeper came out with a group of guards, the shadow guards all looked back, then Ling Jingxuan went up with his family. Seeing Yan Yi and Yan Shan behind him, the housekeeper-like man instantly realized that his identity, and hurriedly went forward to greet him with the guards.

“Greetings, my crown princess!”

The mansion had outer house and inner house. Qin Yu was responsible for the inner house. And someone else managed the outer house—the one kneeling on the ground was Housekeeper Zhu. Except managing the outer house, those properties under Yan Shengrui’s name outside the capital were also under his management. So they had already known the crown princess would come back soon. But that was the inner house’s thing, he seldom stepped in.

“Where is Qin Yu?”

Stopping in front of him, Ling Jingxuan, wearing a face cold, commandingly looked at him.

This question made Housekeeper Zhu confused. Wasn’t Miss Qin supposed to go welcome him? Thinking of the previous shadow guards trying to break the gate, and then looking at the teetering gate, Housekeeper Zhu seemed to be aware of something. As he was trying to answer his question, a woman, dressed not like a maid, hurried over, followed by twelve maids. Ling Jingxuan’s eyes lightly swept over, hairs on the temples like clouds, long and thin eyebrows, red lips, slender fingers, smooth skin, willow-twig like waist, totally a rare beauty, this thought made Ling Jingxuan jealous. Although he knew his man wouldn’t have feelings for him, or he would have already been married with her, never his turn. But that this woman was coveting his man was a solid fact, which was something he could never accept.

“Greetings, my crown princess. This is Qin Yu.”

Yan Yi and Yan Shan both here, even Housekeeper Zhu, so Qin Yu dare not act too excessively. She walked before him and only bent her knees. Although totally unwilling, she still had to respect him as the crown princess.

“Tie her up!”

Seeing that not only she didn’t kneel down, but also she even didn’t give him an explanation, apparently she had made up her mind, Ling Jingxuan also didn’t want to waste one more word. Throwing that cold order, he already took others to walk inside. Just replying on that her mother was Yan Shengrui’s nanny, she thought whatever she did, Yan Shengrui wouldn’t punish her or what. So he’d like to see how Yan Shengrui would handle her after he came back.

“My crown princess, please slow down.”

Qin Yu froze there, then caught up to stop his way. Ling Wen and Ling Wu who were walking on both sides of Ling Jingxuan already had a problem with this woman, so they turned back and threw a kick on her knees.

“Ouch…”

Qin Yu cried due to the pains and knelt down. With one hand held behind, Ling Wen tightly pursed his lips, while Ling Wu held his hands around the waist and stood before her, “Ugly woman, who allows you get so close to my daddy?”

The small bun was so mad that his eyes already reddened. When in the Yuehua Manor, who dare to give daddy his attitude? Father ever said only they are the masters in this mansion, they could beat or even kill anyone in this mansion. Uncle Chu also had ever said unlike the village families, in those big families, masters are the masters. If they just let it go that she didn’t even kneel down when seeing their daddy, and now even had the balls to stand in his way, she would go even further in the future.

“You…Little masters, please calm down. I didn’t do it on purpose.”

Qin Yu reflexively got super angry, and then soon pressed it down, the maid behind her hurriedly went forward trying to support her, but with a cold stare from Ling Jingxuan, “Yan Yi, kill anyone who dare make a move here!”

As those words were, everyone there froze where they were. Qin Yu raised her head and wide opened her eyes with disbelief. How dare he treat her like that? Even Brother Rui had never done that to him. How dare he? Just a farmer from the countryside! Does he really take him as the master of this mansion?
