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

Chapter 128: Husband and wife are united in strength

"It's no use for you to deny it! I will definitely investigate it thoroughly!"

Ji Chuhe felt relieved when she saw Xiao Yan'an's reaction.

Xiao Yanan now feels like he's been bitten by a turtle, right? He must be very angry, right?

She walked to a chair nearby and sat down, tapping the table lightly with her slender fingers.

Mianzhu immediately poured her a cup of tea.

Ji Chuhe picked up the tea, took a sip, and continued watching the show.

Xiao Yanan was like an ant on a hot pot, while Ming'er looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.

This scene is much more exciting than the opera!

"Help! Help!" Ming'er suddenly shouted.

Tianxi stepped forward and covered Ming'er's mouth! Ming'er bit his hand.

"Ah!" Tianxi immediately retracted his hand, "You are born in the year of the dog!"

Ming'er opened her mouth to scream again, but Ji Chuhe suddenly dropped the cup! The scalding water splashed onto Ming'er, frightening her.

"The adopted daughter of County Magistrate Gao has been well brought up." Ji Chuhe suddenly spoke.

As soon as these words were spoken, the room fell silent.

Ming'er's face froze and he looked at Ji Chuhe in disbelief.

Xiao Yan'an was even more surprised.

It turns out that Ji Chuhe has already found out Ming'er's background!

At the same time, he felt ashamed.

Isn't he being played around by others?

He showed his most sincere feelings and didn't want to cause a big fight between him and brother Xiao Jincheng, but Xiao Jincheng treated him like a fool!

"Madam, is she really the adopted daughter of County Magistrate Gao? Isn't that Concubine Gao's person? Is she trying to harm the Crown Prince by pestering him like this?" Dong Ling couldn't help but interject.

"Yeah." Ji Chuhe nodded.

Dong Ling immediately walked towards Ming'er and slapped her on the face, "Look at you, you slut. If you need a man, you can go to a brothel. If you're horny, you can go and meet customers. Don't flirt here! No one will buy your tricks."

Ming'er was beaten so hard that he saw stars.

She couldn't figure out how Ji Chuhe found out her identity!

Xiao Yanan couldn't figure it out either!

The people Ji Chuhe used were also from the palace, so it was impossible for his subordinates to be so different! He couldn't find out, but Ji Chuhe could find out clearly?

In fact, Ji Chuhe was not found out.

But I had seen this Ming'er in my previous life!

In his previous life, Shen Chengjing’s rise had a direct impact on the interests of County Magistrate Gao.

County Magistrate Gao has set his sights on Yunzeshan and wants to take some power from Shen Chengjing.

However, Shen Chengjing was eager to make a contribution, so he kept a tight grip on all the matters under his charge and did not give County Magistrate Gao any chance to interfere.

County Magistrate Gao had excluded Shen Chengjing countless times.

Ji Chuhe was planning for Shen Chengjing in secret, and the person who was really competing with County Magistrate Gao was actually her.

Therefore, she knew everything about County Magistrate Gao.

In his previous life, Xiao Yan'an devoted himself to Xu Yan'er, and spent all his time talking about love. With Ji Qingyuan, who was a troublesome person, the family was in turmoil. Without the changes brought about by her rebirth, Ming'er would not be of any use to Xiao Yan'an.

It was common for wealthy families to adopt daughters.

The main reason is that they are reluctant to exchange their own daughter for benefits. Even if she is a concubine's daughter, she is still a blood relative, and they all want her to marry a good one so that she can be helpful to the family in the future.

But it’s different with an adopted daughter. It’s a small investment but the return is huge!

Basically, they bought some beautiful girls from human traffickers and adopted them as their daughters.

Some people raise them and then, when they like one, they keep it in their room.

Some were given away as gifts.

Sometimes, people are more useful than things.

One thousand taels of silver may not be able to impress a person.

But a warm and soft embrace can make people fall in love with it irresistibly.

If the adopted daughter did anything shameful, he could get away with it cleanly with just one word: "I raised an ungrateful woman."

"Prince, how do you want to deal with this matter?" Ji Chuhe still threw the question to Xiao Yan'an.

"I will report this to my father! Xiao Jincheng is a bastard and he is trying to murder the legitimate son. He should be killed! Everything is up to my father!"

A trace of fear flashed in Ming'er's eyes. If this matter was exposed, would she still have a chance to survive?

She immediately crawled towards Xiao Yan'an, "Prince, spare my life. Prince, please spare me. I was forced to work for the Second Young Master."

"As for what happened to you, it's all your own fault!" Xiao Yan'an responded coldly.

Ji Chuhe saw Xiao Yanan's determination.

This time, you won’t have any illusions about Xiao Jincheng anymore, right?

"Prince, can you please talk to me for a moment?" Ji Chuhe walked towards the inner room.

Xiao Yanan followed.

When they got to the house, Ji Chuhe spoke slowly, "I know the prince is angry, but it's not right to make such a big fuss."

"Ma'am, do you have any other way to deal with this matter?"

"Because of the military service reform, the emperor has paid special attention to Huaiyang. The emperor will not allow anything that is not under his control to happen. He must be wary of my father, and he does not necessarily want Huaiyang to change too much, getting better and stronger."

Xiao Yan'an nodded. He understood this, so during the nominal reform, his father had been working with the seven county governors to report the situation to the emperor at any time.

He had come into contact with those memorials, so he knew how cautious they were.

"There is one thing that outsiders don't know yet." Ji Chuhe spoke slowly.

"What's the matter?" Xiao Yan'an asked quickly.

"Concubine Gao's brother has already been favored by the emperor in the imperial capital. I estimate that he will hold an important position in the imperial capital and be highly valued by the emperor. I believe that this news will reach Huaiyang soon."

"Ma'am, how do you know this?"

Ji Chuhe couldn't be as stupid as Ji Qingyuan and reveal that he was reborn.

She would keep this matter to herself and not let anyone know.

"Because, unlike the Crown Prince, I still have illusions about the Second Young Master. I have never eliminated my suspicions about him. So, I sent people to keep an eye on Concubine Gao and the Gao family, and got this news." Ji Chuhe said casually.

Xiao Yan'an believed it without a doubt, "Madam is really thoughtful. So, I really can't cause any more trouble for my father."

"Once I report this to my father, the Gao family will most likely announce it in advance to contain my father."

Ji Chuhe nodded, "Your Highness is right. In order to avoid the Emperor's suspicion, Father will definitely not touch Concubine Gao and Xiao Jincheng, and will maintain superficial peace. If he does so, Concubine Gao will gain the upper hand."

"But, can we just let this matter go? They won't stop!" Xiao Yan'an clenched his fists secretly.

"Of course we can't just let it go like this. Give them a taste of their own medicine."

"Madam, have you never doubted me at all? When you heard those rumors, didn't you believe they were true?" Xiao Yan'an couldn't help but ask.

"I don't believe a word of it. Prince, I am your wife. Our honor and disgrace are the same. We are in the same boat. No matter what happens, we must first trust each other and face the outside world in unison. Do you agree with this?"

"Agreed!" Xiao Yan'an nodded solemnly.

"Prince, I feel relieved when you say this. From now on, we will stick together through thick and thin." Ji Chuhe smiled faintly.

"Okay!" Xiao Yan'an's tone was very firm.
