The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket!-Chapter 1190 - 1013, Gaining Public Opinion Advantage

A proper birthday banquet, spoiled by the people of the An Family, not only left the Household of Prince Yeyang full of anger but also left other guests with a bellyful of frustration.

Gu Jian seldom met outsiders, and this rare opportunity was just about to be spent on a good chat with the Du, Chang, and Yuan families, sadly wrecked by the An Family.

As for the other officials, they were more interested in getting closer to Xiao Yeyang. The door to the Prince Residence was hard to gain entry to, especially after Princess Consort Xiao became pregnant and the Prince Residence stopped accepting all visiting cards.

"Really like a rat’s dropping spoiling the whole pot of porridge!"

Princess Consort Xiao was so angered by the An Family’s elder Madam that she nearly suffered a miscarriage. Everyone, however reluctantly, could only stand and take their leave.

The Du, Chang, and Yuan families left together, discussing with a hint of schadenfreude.

Official Du: "The An Family is truly too arrogant, relying on Consort An and the Crown Prince for backing, thinking everyone will give them face. This time they have seriously offended the Household of the Distant Prince."

Not only did they send a mistress to seduce him, but they also directly quarreled with Princess Consort Xiao. What on earth is the An Family thinking, imagining that with the support of Consort An and the Crown Prince, they can act above the law?

Official Chang shook his head and said: "Ever since Consort An took control of the harem, the An Family’s elder Madam has been praised to the skies. I’ve heard that on her first visit she intended to crush Princess Consort Xiao."

Official Yuan took over the conversation: "The Distant Prince is not one to suffer in silence; this time Consort An and the Crown Prince in Beijing will have a headache."

.....

The main courtyard of the Prince Residence.

"Don’t worry, both I and the baby are fine!"

Daohua, who had just comforted Guo Ruomei, saw Xiao Yeyang return in a fluster and quickly explained, "I deliberately said it was a miscarriage alarm because I saw the An Family’s elder Madam acting like she wanted to faint."

Xiao Yeyang came forward to take a close look at Daohua. Seeing her rosy complexion and full spirit, he let his heart settle but still disapproved, "In the future, don’t joke about yourself and the baby. If anything happens to you, all the silver in the An Family couldn’t make up for it."

Daohua nodded repeatedly, comforting Xiao Yeyang: "I was afraid we would be at a disadvantage in public opinion. Although today’s incident was provoked by the An Family’s elder Madam, if she had fainted in our residence, those who don’t know the full story would definitely think it was our fault."

"Everyone sympathizes with the weaker side. The age of the An Family’s elder Madam is there after all. By then, even the women present today might think it was my fault, that I angered the elder Madam into fainting."

"Moreover, behind the An Family stand Consort An and the Crown Prince. Even if we don’t get involved in those messy affairs, we can’t let others take the opportunity to casually slander us."

"We are far from Beijing. Even if Imperial Uncle values you, if people around keep speaking ill of us, it might also affect Imperial Uncle’s opinion of us."

Xiao Yeyang led Daohua to sit down on the bedstead: "Leave outside matters to me; you should focus on nourishing the baby and not worry needlessly." As he spoke, a glint of coldness passed through his eyes.

"The An Family dares to openly scheme against the Prince Residence now; if we don’t teach them a lesson, they’ll really think we are to be trifled with."

The elder Madam of the An Family even dared to publicly ridicule his mother in his own residence, this was the height of impudence!

That’s when Gu Jian arrived.

"Master, what brings you here?"

Ignoring Daohua, Gu Jian took her hand, checked her pulse, and his grim expression slowly softened, but he still looked at Daohua discontentedly.

"What am I to say about you? Don’t you know you can’t have such big emotional fluctuations while pregnant? You got lucky this time and nothing serious happened, but if you’re reckless like this again, I’ll see how I deal with you!"

Daohua listened obediently, not daring to argue.

After speaking to Daohua, Gu Jian turned his glare to Xiao Yeyang: "And you, why do you attract so much trouble, one after another they all leap at you, are you a sweet pastry or something?"

"From now on, keep serious outside; if you run into those women again, deal with them harshly. If you’re tough enough, I’d like to see who else dares to provoke you."

The maid had not yet had the chance to tell Daohua about An Xin pouring herself onto Xiao Yeyang in public, so Daohua was unaware of the incident at the theater.

However, listening to Gu Jian, she immediately understood and looked at Xiao Yeyang with displeasure: "What did the An Family’s girl do to you?"

Xiao Yeyang, an innocent victim, replied helplessly, "Stopped by your son."

Daohua ’hmmphed’, her hand on her waist: "I’ve worked up this miscarriage alarm too much. Spread the word that the An Family’s affront to my dignity was severe."

Having the audacity to come to her house to seduce her husband, this is intolerable!

Not only did Xiao Yeyang refuse to let An Family off the hook, but he even instructed Defu: "Go to the Capital Command and invite Doctor Ge to come over, just say..."

Gu Jian interrupted: "Just say I was so infuriated that I fainted!"

Xiao Yeyang, Daohua: "..." Uncle Master (Master) fainting from anger, this is a big deal.

Seeing Xiao Yeyang not taking any action, Gu Jian’s face showed displeasure: "What are you staring for, hurry up and spread the news!"

Xiao Yeyang came back to his senses and waved his hand, allowing Defu to go and do as Gu Jian had instructed.

If today’s incident was merely Yiyi feeling unwell from pregnancy, as long as Yiyi was indeed fine, it wouldn’t count for much. But uncle master fainting, if the Jinling Guard reports this to Emperor Uncle, Emperor Uncle will definitely hold a grudge against the An Family.

Although he no longer commands the Jinling Guard, there are still his men inside it. The An and Du families were watched by the Jinling Guard the moment they arrived in Xiliang.

He knew very well what these families had done in Xiliang.

Remembering the rebellious remarks that An Zhihang often made at home, Xiao Yeyang sneered in his heart; An Family was really courting death, not only for themselves but also dragging down An Guifei and the Crown Prince along with them.

Seeing Guyu bring over a bowl of dark-colored medicine for pregnancy, Xiao Yeyang asked: "Wasn’t it said that she did not have a pregnancy scare?"

Guyu replied: "Nanny said that Princess Consort just had a significant emotional disturbance, which more or less affected the little master inside her belly, so it’s best to drink a dose just to be safe."

Daohua’s face suddenly fell; after becoming pregnant, there were some scents she really couldn’t stand, getting nauseous as soon as she smelled them, and medicine was one of those.

Witnessing Daohua’s deep-seated misery, Xiao Yeyang’s gaze darkened, and he turned and left the room, summoning a Hidden Guard:

"Isn’t the An Residence trying to discover the Wei Family’s buried treasure locations? Find an opportunity to subtly reveal the location we know about to them, and when they start digging, capture them on the spot!"

The Wei Family had operated in Xiliang for generations, amassing considerable wealth. Everything aboveground had been confiscated by the Imperial Court, but a portion was still buried.

Not long ago, during the interrogation of some bandits, a bandit revealed this, and the interrogator was none other than An Zhihang.

Since then, the An Family had been searching for the Wei Family’s buried gold.

Competing for the throne is an enormous drain on silver. As the Crown Prince’s foremost pawn, the An Family must substantially assist the Crown Prince with his schemes.

...

An Residence.

Upon learning that the Prince Residence had called for a doctor again, and the news that the Duke of Fuguo had fainted due to Xiao Wangfei’s pregnancy scare, the mood in the An Household became somewhat somber.

The elder Madam An gritted her teeth and said: "That girl from the Yan Family was clearly faking it; she’s trying to harm our An Family."

Thinking back to the situation at the time, Lady An couldn’t help but say: "Mother, if Xiao Wangfei was faking it, then Madam Guo wouldn’t have been so anxious."

"You shut your mouth!"

The elder Madam An fiercely turned to Lady An, looking as if she was about to devour her: "Back at the Prince Residence, if you hadn’t stopped me, I would have fainted on the spot."

"If I had fainted at the Prince Residence, we wouldn’t be so passive now. Even if the Yan girl really had a pregnancy scare, if I had fainted, this matter would have passed. But you just had to stop me."

"I’ve come to realize that you really are a jinx!"

Lady An was scolded until her face turned beet red, and she pursed her lips, not speaking anymore.

Seeing his mother and wife arguing, the head of the An Family felt a headache coming on: "Mother, now is not the time for this, let’s think of a way to solve the problem."

The elder Madam An slowly calmed down: "Prepare ink and paper for me, I want to write a letter to An Guifei, telling her about Xiao Yeyang and the Yan girl’s actions."

Upon hearing this, the head of the An Family breathed a sigh of relief; with An Guifei whispering in the Emperor’s ear, Xiao Yeyang shouldn’t dare to do anything to him.
