"Someone, quickly check to see what's wrong with the Second Miss." An Shucheng was also anxious. An Xia was half dead, and An Si's face was like this. His chess pieces seemed to have been broken.

His cooperation with the Crown Prince was at its end. He felt his heart sink, his face turn pale, and he became extremely anxious.

The steward rushed over when he heard the sound. When he saw An Si's appearance, he jumped in fright and quickly sent someone to the palace to call in an imperial physician.

Madam An knew that something big had happened at home, but she didn't have the mood to care. At this moment, she was in front of An Xia's bed. "An Xia, all of this was done by you, right?"

His face slightly darkened and was filled with worry.

An Xia laid there, his face was as calm as ever, still a little pale. "Mother, what did you say? How could I do all this? Auntie Zhao is reaping what she sowed. "

When she heard what Anxia said, Madam An looked at her, trying to read something from her face.

However, since An Xia was too calm and didn't reveal her emotions, Madam An had no choice but to give up.

He shook his head and replied, "An Xia, Mother doesn't want you to enter the palace. That place …." This was even more terrifying than the An Mansion.

"Therefore, even though you know what they did, you didn't interfere." An Xia's complexion didn't look good. At this moment, she was lying there, looking at Madam An in disbelief. Was this mother too weak, or was she just overthinking?

"An Xia, it's not like this …" Madam An was becoming a little anxious. "If Mother knew that they had ill intentions towards you, she would have risked her life to stop them. Mother only hates that she has no ability and cannot let you live a carefree life."

As she spoke, she sighed. Her situation was indeed not too good. With Aunt Zhao's methods and her lost family, even if she wanted to, she could do nothing about it.

Hearing Madam An's words, An Xia felt slightly better. If it was really as she had thought, then this mother would be too terrifying.

After calming herself down, An Xia sat up and helped Madam An up. "Mother, it's because I want to live a carefree life that I want to enter the palace. Mother should be well aware that if the emperor hadn't personally decreed my identity as the Crown Prince's consort, the two of us would have even less status in the palace …"

However, An Xia also understood that Aunt Zhao and her daughter were even more ruthless. The real An Xia had long been killed by them.

He dared to spy on the position of the Crown Princess. He was truly bold and ruthless.

Of course, it was also because she had a cold-blooded father.

"In the past, we were safe and sound because we were the princesses, but now, it is because of this princess consort that we are getting into trouble!" Madam An still wanted to persuade An Xia to give up. She had always felt that the mother and daughter pair couldn't win against Madame Zhao, so she wanted An Xia to give up. Otherwise, it would bring about a fatal disaster.

What she didn't know was that An Xia had already died twice.

An Xia felt a bit helpless. She felt that Madam An was too timid. If she kept her distance from the world like this, the other side would not soften their grip and give her a chance to live. Instead, they would press her down step by step.

"Mother, don't worry. Right now, the mother and daughter pair don't have the time to scheme against us. Auntie Zhao has to properly explain this to father. There's no time to worry about the position of the Crown Prince's consort." An Xia sneered as she spoke, her expression causing Madam An to stiffen.

She could also tell that her daughter had changed and become a little unfamiliar. However, the person in front of her was indeed her daughter. There was no mistake. Just that gaze, that expression, that was far too cold and ruthless.

She was startled. An Xia's words made her even more certain that what happened to his mother and daughter had something to do with An Xia.

For a moment, he didn't know what to say.

"Alright, mother, you should go rest. Daughter is fine, she will definitely live until the day of the bridal sedan." An Xia got up and helped Madam An to walk her to the door. "You'll have to properly manage the matters of the mansion in the next few days."

Once Madame Zhao had locked up, the entire Residence of An was once again in the hands of Madam An.

This time, An Xia killed two birds with one stone. A few doctors came to the hospital and surrounded An Xin. They were all familiar with the scar on her face. They were very clear about this kind of medicine.

The empress of the palace wanted to destroy her opponent and would occasionally use this medicine. However, this medicine was only used in the palace; she never expected such a medicine to appear in the Residence of An.

The medicine they concocted was naturally solvable, but it could not restore An Xin to her original state in a short period of time. Furthermore, when they left the palace to do some work, they did not receive any benefits from the Zhao manor.

One had to know, only Captain Zhao had the ability to make the doctors in the palace do it themselves.

With his identity as Grand Preceptor An, he wouldn't personally receive these doctors and officials. He'd been waiting in his study all this time for the results and was extremely anxious. His two pawns had been destroyed just like that, of course his heart ached for them.

Instead, she waited in the courtyard, listening to the movements outside. Although she had lost her power, the Zhao manor was very powerful, and she had arranged all the servants in Ansi's courtyard. At this moment, Ansi's courtyard was filled with information about the situation of the second class girl, who usually did not show her face.

Fortunately, she had seen a lot of storms. She bit her lips and stood there, clenching her hands into fists. Her long nails pierced her palms, and blood dripped onto the ground.

"Go and tell Master that the First Miss can cure the Second Miss's face." After a long while, Madame Zhao finally managed to squeeze out a single sentence from between her teeth. She couldn't let An Xia off easily, she had to drag her into the water.

Actually, when Aunt Zhao heard from the servants that An Xia was still alive, she had almost gone mad. She had personally poisoned An Xia and unexpectedly failed again, she seemed to understand that it wasn't that Madame Li had failed, but that An Xia had been too crafty. Over the years, she hadn't been able to see that An Xia had such an ability.

But now, she had actually made such a huge mess. She wasn't willing to accept this though.

She must bring down An Xia, she must wash away her shame.

The girl hesitated for a moment before she turned around and left.

Afterwards, Madame Zhao sent a message to the Residence of Zhao. Although she was only a concubine of the Residence of An, if An Si could enter the palace and become the Crown Prince's consort, she could immediately become the legal wife.

Hearing the second class girl's words, An Shucheng was stunned for a moment, his face changing color. "What nonsense are you spouting?" Listening to someone spouting nonsense? "

This was simply nonsense. An Xia was his daughter, so if he knew medical skills, he would know better. Moreover, if An Xia really knew medical skills, he wouldn't be so half-dead.

His eyes narrowed as he waved towards the door. "Men, throw this nonsense servant into the woodshed. I'll interrogate you when I have time."

When the housekeeper heard this, he immediately led the second class girl away.

However, An Shucheng's heart was still in disarray. Right now, there was no good news coming from the Ansi Courtyard side. He was obviously anxious to find someone who could cure the Ansi face.

After walking around the room a few times, An Shucheng called over to the butler and said, "Let's go see how Eldest Miss is doing."

Right now, he was just taking a step back. Everything would be fine if one of them were to marry into the palace.

It was even more urgent for him to get medical attention.

The butler did not know what was going on, but since the lord had spoken, he did not dare delay any further. He personally came to An Xia's courtyard and called Hong Ye to ask, "How is Eldest Miss? I should be able to hold on until the day of the wedding. "

An Xia had already instructed Hong Ye long ago, and at this time, Hong Ye nodded her head vigorously: "Rest assured, master, big miss will definitely be able to enter the palace. The medicine sent by the palace is very good, big miss can already walk from the bed."

Hearing this, the butler's eyes lit up. He knew that he had not made the wrong judgement. This young miss was indeed not a simple person.

As he thought this, he sent a message to Grand Preceptor An. As for An Xin, the steward didn't really care.

Auntie Zhao and her daughter had relied on their family's influence and influence, but they had never placed him, a housekeeper, in their eyes.

When An Shucheng heard the news from the butler, he frowned once again. For a moment, it was difficult for him to make a decision. After all, An Xin was backed by the entire Zhao manor, while An Xia was backed by the general mansion.

If he didn't do anything, he wouldn't have the choice.

As he clenched his fists, he knew that An Xia wasn't simple. He knew too little about this eldest daughter of his. Aunt Zhao had put in all her effort, but she still couldn't make An Xia disappear from the Residence of Peace.

No matter how harmless An Xia looked on the surface, so many things had happened at the mansion that people were suspicious of.

"Let An Xia see An Xin's face. Tell her that if she can't cure An Si's illness, then she should return to the General's Estate with her mother." An Shucheng could only gamble.

If not, with his status, he would not have locked himself in the courtyard to steal from a concubine.

From start to finish, he had always wanted the power and status of Aunt Zhao's side.

"Master, Eldest Miss, she …" The butler was also surprised. He didn't expect An Shucheng to make things difficult for An Xia. An Si's face had already split open. There were very few people in this world who could cure her.

"Go." An Wenshu had an extremely ugly expression on his face. He waved his hand at the butler. Everything went wrong, causing him to become angry. Fortunately, this butler had been by his side for more than 30 years, so he managed to suppress his anger.

After the butler left, An Shucheng sent some dark guards to An Xia's yard. He wanted to know how deep this eldest daughter of his hid herself.

Hearing the butler's words, Hong Ye felt awkward. He also understood that the emperor was a foot tall and the devil king was a foot high. This Grand Preceptor An was indeed ruthless. He was giving An Xia no choice but to leave.

When Hong Ye came in, An Xia only said lightly, "Tell the butler to tell my father that I don't mind marrying in the General's Estate. As long as I am alive, the position of Crown Prince's consort will not be occupied unless the Emperor decrees."

It was impossible for her to save An Si.

What she wanted was the current situation.

The guard replied back to An Shucheng. An Shucheng, who was standing in front of the table, suddenly picked up his inkstone and threw it onto the ground. The ink scattered all over the place, and his face turned ashen.

He never thought that An Xia would dare to say such words.

"Master, someone from the Grand Commandery has arrived." At this moment, the steward's voice rang out, sounding a bit perturbed. Looks like the matter had really blown up.
