Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down

Concubine Dowager An would indeed not beat those concubines. After all, they were not her biological daughters. Although she would not treat them as well as her own daughters, she would not control them so strictly, let alone beat them. Not to mention when Prince An was alive, she would not beat them. After all, she was afraid that if she beat them, they would report it to Prince An, and Prince An did not like her, so he would definitely make trouble for her. Even when Prince An was gone, she had never beaten these concubines, so this was the first time that Princess Yonghe was beaten.

Princess Yonghe looked at Concubine An in disbelief and cried, "Mother, why would you beat me for no reason on a day like today?"

Today is Mid-Autumn Festival, and he hit her! She was so angry!
Although she was a concubine's daughter, she was different from other concubines in the folk. She was from the royal family, she was from the clan, and she was a county lady with a title! As a result, this old woman dared to hit her! Even if she was her legal mother, she couldn't hit her on such a festival, right? Even if she was bullied by Prince An who died and beat her, no one dared to say anything to her. Otherwise, when her father was here, she would dare to hit her!
——What Princess Yonghe hadn’t thought about was that for what she had done tonight, if Prince An were here, Prince An would be timid and frightened, and might hit her more than once. It’s unknown how many times he would hit her.

The cousin of Princess Yonghe naturally stood on the side of Princess Yonghe. While comforting Princess Yonghe, she glared at Concubine Dowager An, thinking that there was no human rights in ancient times. Princess Yonghe was already so old, but this old witch still beat her up. When she became the queen, she would deal with Concubine Dowager An, the old witch.

However, Concubine An's next words quickly ended the anger of the two.

"You've caused the entire Anwang Mansion to be executed, and you still have the nerve to ask why!"

After hearing what Concubine An said, Princess Yonghe felt something in her heart, but she still pretended to be stupid and said, "I don't understand what mother means."

Concubine An sneered, "Still playing dumb! Let me ask you, the person you just brought into the palace was not your maid, but your cousin?"

When Princess Yonghe heard Concubine An mention this matter, her heart skipped a beat and she thought to herself that this was indeed the case. If this was the case, she really shouldn't have brought her cousin into the palace at that time. She was a little scared and regretful now. After all, if she was discovered that the person she brought was not a maid, then she would be in trouble.

But now they've returned home safely and everything is fine, so why would the old woman be so mad and hit her?
Isn't it okay if she promises that she won't do it again next time?
So when Princess Yonghe heard what Concubine An said, she hurriedly said, "It is indeed my cousin. She wants to see what the palace looks like. But please rest assured, mother, we did nothing wrong and returned safely. I also know that I made a mistake and I will not do it again in the future."

After hearing this, Concubine An couldn't help but sneer and said, "Later, do you think there will be a chance later?"

Seeing that the two did not understand, Concubine Dowager An said, "I just received news from the palace that something happened to Concubine Wang tonight. His Majesty is furious and is now investigating the people who entered the palace tonight to see if they are consistent with the registration. What you did will be discovered soon. He also said that you will not be able to pass this test in the future! You must know how much His Majesty dotes on Concubine Wang, right? Do you think you can withstand His Majesty's anger? Not only you, but even Prince An's Mansion can't bear it!"

After hearing what Concubine An said, Princess Yonghe and her cousin were shocked.

They really didn't expect that their luck was so bad. Just this one time they entered the palace, something happened.

They naturally knew how much the emperor doted on Concubine Wang. If something happened to Concubine Wang, and it was found that what they registered was different from the real thing, what good would it do them? Even if it wasn't them, no one would listen to their explanations, and something bad would happen.

Princess Yonghe had no time to resent Concubine An now. She was frightened and asked quickly, "Is this news reliable, mother?"

"What do you think? Do you want me to bring you here in the middle of the night? I don't want to sleep." She was angry just thinking about it. If it weren't for this damn girl, she would have fallen asleep by now! Now she was so sleepy, and she had to deal with this mess.

When Princess Yonghe heard Concubine An's resolute answer, she was so frightened that her face turned pale. She threw away all her resentment for being beaten and knelt down. She crawled to Concubine An's feet, crying bitterly, "Please mother, save me!"

Concubine An said, "You are scared now. Why didn't you think about it before? Royal affairs can be big or small. Sometimes the royal family can forgive big things, but sometimes, at the wrong time, even a small matter, or even a sentence or a word, can cost someone's life. How dare you bring people into the palace casually? Who gave you the courage to do such a thing!"

The cousin of the Yonghe County Lord who had glared at the Concubine An before had seen Concubine An beat the Yonghe County Lord. Now she heard that something had happened to Concubine Wang in the palace and that the Emperor was going to investigate the people who had entered the palace tonight. She was already scared. After all, she was here to fulfill a mission and marry the Prince of Anjiang. She didn't want to be beheaded for no reason! So now she was also scared and didn't dare to glare at Concubine An anymore. She followed the Yonghe County Lord and begged Concubine An to save them.

Concubine An said: "There is only one way now, and we don't know if it will succeed."

Princess Yonghe said anxiously, "Mother, please speak."

Concubine An glanced at the cousin of Princess Yonghe and said, "Have your cousin write a contract of sale right now. She will be your maid from now on and her name will be the one you said. This way, if the palace investigates, your cousin is indeed your maid and her name is indeed that name. Maybe we can fool them. As for the maid you pretended to be, I will send her to the farm and give her a different name. I just hope this can be concealed. But this contract of sale is not filed with the government. We just wrote it privately. If it is found in our house, I can't guarantee whether the palace will recognize it or not."

After hearing Concubine An's arrangement, Princess Yonghe hadn't said anything yet, but her cousin immediately screamed, "I'm selling myself to be a maid for my cousin? How can this be possible!"

How can she marry Prince Anjiang if she is going to sell herself?

Besides, she didn't want to be a maid. She came here to be a superior person, not a lowly person.

Princess Yonghe also reacted at this time and said, "Yes, she is my cousin, how can she be my maid?"

Then, her biological mother must not be angry - Princess Yonghe's biological mother, the concubine, is still alive.

Although Princess Yonghe's biological mother was only a maid in the palace and became a concubine by luck, since she had become a concubine of the prince, her family naturally benefited from her success. Now they have bought a small house in the capital and live a good life, unlike before when they were so poor that they had to sell their daughter to the palace to be a maid.

Since they are living a good life, naturally no one in the family needs to be a servant like that concubine did in the past. (End of this chapter)
