Chapter 6: The Bridal Gifts Are Mine Alone

On the other side, Pei Fei listened to the servant's report, her mind buzzing, and she felt like smashing the cup in her hand out of frustration.

In just half a day, that wretched girl had nearly driven her insane.

Pei Fei closed her eyes, concealing her anger, and gritted her teeth. "You may leave! Inform Steward Ji... to do as the Miss commanded."

You have the command; do you also have the means to spend it?

After the servant who came to report left, Jiang Yunyao couldn't help but complain, "Mother, why are you siding with Jiang Ru? She's too arrogant; we should teach her some humility."

"Yao'er, you are the future Crown Princess and even the future... Empress. Don't tarnish your image over such trivial matters," Pei Fei said, and a faint blush appeared on Jiang Yunyao's cheeks.

Yesterday, she had a private meeting with the Crown Prince, and he assured her that the Emperor would soon issue the imperial wedding edict. She was the future mother of a nation, and endless glory and riches awaited her!

"Mother, you must be tired. You should rest!" After saying this, Pei Fei lay back on her bed with the help of her maids.

Before that wretched girl Jiang Ru got married, she should lay low!

She could tell that Jiang Ru had endured for years, all just to wait for this day. Hmph! Playing with a falcon every day, but letting the sparrow peck your eyes out.

Night fell.

After locking the door, Jiang Ru lovingly touched the two chests of silver, wearing the expression of a little money lover.

"Retrieve!"

With a flicker of her figure, she and the chests appeared together in her space.

Jiang Ru found some rice in the storage room of the courtyard, picked up a hoe, and headed to the field.

Hard work leads to wealth, and she swung the hoe.

After a while, Jiang Ru suddenly stopped and scratched her head. Well, she thought, she probably didn't need to work so hard, right?

As a faithful reader of novels, she naturally knew she could control everything in her space with her thoughts.

With a thought, the rice disappeared from where it was.

Jiang Ru directed the spiritual springwater into the field, and the tender green seedlings sprouted.

After the joy, Jiang Ru sat in her space, lost in thought.

She thought of her master, bitten by zombies while trying to save her in the apocalypse.

Old man, can we meet again?

A thousand miles away, in a village shrouded in darkness,

In the room of a farmhouse, the sleeping old man suddenly sneezed, waking up abruptly. He grumbled a few words and muttered, "I wonder if that unfilial child was bitten by zombies?"

Ah, I miss her cooking!

...

Prince An's Mansion.

Since Xiao Chengjin fell into a coma, the atmosphere in Prince An's Mansion was as if it were enveloped in gloom, heavy and oppressive.

Housekeeper Lin, even now, when he thought back to that night, still felt a bit frightened.

The night Prince An was attacked, he had only two shadow guards with him. The assassins were highly skilled, and there were many of them. By the time the other shadow guards arrived, Prince An was already lying in a pool of blood, and the two shadow guards had died by his side.
