Marrying into a rich family by mistake, it is difficult to be a mistress

Chapter 163: Meeting Geng and Secretly Surveilling

Ji Chuhe and his party passed by the small town of Shilipu and stopped in the town to rest for a while.

Soon, the news that the Crown Prince's wife had come to the small town of Shilipu spread throughout the streets and alleys.

The common people flocked to the small teahouse where Ji Chuhe stayed, wanting to see the elegance of the Crown Prince's wife with their own eyes.

Before long, there were people surrounding the place.

"Madam, do you want me to disperse the people outside?" The guard commander Rong Song came forward to ask.

"No need, just go and maintain order and make sure nothing dangerous happens." Ji Chuhe responded softly.

"Yes." Rong Song immediately took the order and left.

Ji Qingyuan and Shen Chengjing arrived at Shilipu Town an hour ago. Just as they settled down, they heard the news that Ji Chuhe had also come to Shilipu Town.

Everyone ran to see Ji Chuhe, leaving only Ji Qingyuan and Shen Chengjing.

"Why did Ji Chuhe come to Shilipu Town? It's so remote here, what is she doing here?" Ji Qingyuan was full of doubts.

Shen Chengjing couldn't guess it either.

"Qingyuan, you take a rest first. I'll go to town to see if there are any things I need to buy."

"What can you buy in such a remote place! Shen Chengjing, you don't want to meet Ji Chuhe?" Ji Qingyuan looked at Shen Chengjing suspiciously.

In his previous life, Shen Chengjing hated Ji Chuhe to the extreme.

How come, in this life, the things that you didn't get have become popular?

"I go to see her? How could I possibly go to see her?" Shen Chengjing retorted.

"Shen Chengjing, my mother has told me that our trip must be kept secret!"

Shen Chengjing thought about it and resisted the urge to leave.

After all, it is more important to go to the imperial capital.

He turned and walked into the house.

Ji Qingyuan snorted coldly, with a look of contempt on her face.

When she arrives in the imperial capital, she will never place her hopes on Shen Chengjing!

However, at the moment, she had a hint of doubt in her heart.

Why did the mother ask them to wait for her here? Was it related to Ji Chuhe?

……

Ji Chuhe and his group rested for about half an hour, had lunch, packed up and continued on their journey.

In about another hour, we will arrive at the concubine's farm.

When she arrived, it was still early and she could deal with the conflict on the farm.

With the help of Mianzhu, Ji Chuhe walked out of the teahouse.

"Madam Crown Prince!" an excited voice rang out.

"I actually have the honor of meeting the Crown Prince's wife!" Then another excited voice was heard.

"Greetings to the Crown Prince's wife." Everyone bowed to Ji Chuhe.

"No need to be so polite, please stand up quickly." Ji Chuhe waved to everyone.

Only after she got on the carriage did everyone slowly stand up.

"The Crown Prince's wife is like a goddess descending from heaven. I have never seen anyone so beautiful."

"Yeah, it's so beautiful."

The carriage slowly moved forward. Suddenly, Ji Chuhe lifted a corner of the curtain and looked out.

Her eyes were fixed in one direction.

"Miss, what are you looking at?" Mianzhu asked in confusion, and she also leaned over.

Ji Chuhe lowered the car curtain and sat upright, "An acquaintance."

She saw Geng's figure.

When I just came out, I thought I was dazzled and recognized the wrong person.

I just confirmed it again, it’s Geng’s.

"Acquaintance? Who?" Mianzhu became even more curious.

"Gun."

"Geng!" Mianzhu was shocked. "Miss, why is Geng here?"

"I find it strange too." Ji Chuhe seemed to be thinking about something.

Moreover, she noticed a detail that there were other people around Geng.

Ji Chuhe was more cautious, and when the carriage left the town of Shilipu, she called Rong Song to the front of the carriage.

"Rongsong, I just saw Geng in the small town of Shilipu. There are some suspicious people around her. Send someone to secretly keep an eye on them."

"Yes, ma'am." Rong Song immediately took the order and left.

……

The people in Zhuangzi are ready to welcome Ji Chuhe.

Everyone was in high spirits, especially the manager of the village.

He had long heard of the Crown Prince's wife's swift and decisive methods. If anything went wrong, he would probably be kicked out of the manor.

In this conflict, not only were there injuries among the tenants, but quite a few people on the farm were also injured.

As soon as Ji Chuhe's carriage turned into the farm, he saw a group of people welcoming him warmly. Looking again, he saw that many people had bruises on their faces. It seemed that the conflict was quite intense.

"Welcome, the Crown Prince's wife." The steward led everyone to bow to Ji Chuhe.

Ji Chuhe got off the carriage and glanced at everyone, "No need to be polite, everyone."

"Thank you ma'am."

Ji Chuhe asked the person standing in front, "Are you the manager of this manor?"

"Yes ma'am, my surname is Feng."

"Then I will call you Manager Feng." Ji Chuhe walked into the manor.

Steward Feng immediately followed, "Madam, your residence has been prepared. It is in the east courtyard. I will take you there."

"Manager Feng, please call those tenants over so I can understand the situation first."

"Yes." Manager Feng responded immediately and ordered someone to call someone.

"Madam, these tenants are all rough people, and they must still be resentful of last night's conflict. They will not have a good attitude. Please be prepared."

"Thank you Manager Feng for the reminder. I understand." Ji Chuhe responded softly.

Based on her first impression, she felt that Manager Feng was not a bad person.

There was no excessive flattery or sycophancy, which was beyond her expectations.

Before she came, she didn't have much hope for the Toffee's men.

"You're too polite, ma'am." Manager Feng didn't expect Ji Chuhe to be so gentle.

Although the people in Zhuangzi were seeing Ji Chuhe for the first time, Ji Chuhe's deeds had already spread to Zhuangzi a long time ago.

Even their master, Concubine Xu, was completely subdued by Ji Chuhe.

Everyone thought that Ji Chuhe was a vicious character, but unexpectedly, she was so dignified, gentle and quiet, and her words and actions made people feel like spring breeze.

Ji Chuhe sat in the main room of the east courtyard, drinking tea and waiting for the tenants to come.

Not long after, a noisy sound was heard outside.

"Xu Gui has done so many evil things! He was the one who killed those people, why hasn't he been convicted yet?"

"Yes! When it came to killing Zhou Dahu, it was quite quick! Why was it delayed for so many days when it came to Xu Gui, who already had solid evidence? Isn't it because Xu Gui is the grandnephew of the Concubine Dowager?"

"Give us ordinary people justice and execute the villain Xu Gui!"

"Yes! Give us justice and execute Xu Gui!"

There were about ten people in this group, all middle-aged and young men. They were all tanned and looked very strong from years of hard work.

When this group of rough guys saw Ji Chuhe, they all became quiet unconsciously.
