With that, An Xia supported Madam An and swaggered off.

Aunt Zhao's face turned green and she quickly kneeled at An Shucheng's feet. "Master, I've always thought of you. I've always thought of you. I've always thought of the Residence of An."

An Shucheng's expression didn't look too good. He glanced at Aunt Zhao, then at the departing An Xia and Madam An. The expressions in his eyes changed again and again. With a cold snort, he flung his sleeves and walked out of the hall.

She clenched her fists fiercely, her eyes exuding a cold killing intent. Gritting her teeth, she muttered to herself, "An Xia, you've actually become smarter. Hmph, I'd like to see what tricks you can play …"

"An Xia, if you contradict your father like this, he won't let us go." Madam An heaved a sigh of relief. With a face full of fear, she helplessly asked, "Just what is going on here?"

"Mom, since you don't care about the matters of the mansion, then you don't have to bother with it anymore. I have my own ideas." An Xia felt a little helpless. Someone like Madam An would sooner or later be played to death by Madame Zhao. No wonder this estate was controlled by her.

There was also a faint tendency to replace Madam An.

Madam An wanted to say something, but An Xia hurriedly stopped her. "Alright, Mother. You should rest first. Don't worry. Things like today will definitely not happen again."

Only then did he instruct the girl in the courtyard to take good care of Madam An.

When he returned to his own room, the broken pieces of porcelain still on the floor. An Xia clenched his fists tightly. It looked like Grand Preceptor An had sealed off the outside world, so the estate still didn't know.

"Miss!" The door was pushed open, and the little girl, Red Leaf, walked in as usual, with a basin of clear water in her hands.

An Xia came back to her senses. She glanced at Hong Ye, her gaze chilly. She had been poisoned yesterday, so no one could believe it. Especially that girl, who didn't seem to know anything.

"Miss …" The little girl, Hong Ye, froze for a moment. She had never seen An Xia with such a vicious expression. "What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing." An Xia retracted her emotions and carefully examined Red Leaf. "Where did you go last night?" I was thirsty in the middle of the night, so why didn't you call me?

The red leaf lowered its head to look at the fragments on the ground. Unknowingly, it was there, but its voice was low. "Yesterday, Auntie Zhao told Hong Ye to help with the embroidery work. Eldest Miss's wedding day is approaching, and I'm busy with all of them."

An Xia nodded and didn't say anything more. He had to slowly observe whether this Red Leaf was a spy or not.

An Si was the daughter of Madame Zhao and already knew what was going on outside. She rushed into An Xia's room as if she was mad, cursing, "Big sister, it was you who shamelessly eloped with someone else. You actually tarnished my face. You have to give me a proper treatment today …"

With this attitude, he didn't even put An Xia, the eldest daughter of the clan, in his eyes, and dared to make such a ruckus.

This was not like a concubine at all, but more like a direct daughter.

However, this time, An Si was truly in the dark. Furthermore, his reputation had been ruined. Wanting to turn the tides was already difficult.

Of course, this was all done by the mother and daughter.

When An Xia heard this voice, she coldly snorted. She hadn't yet settled the score with Madame Zhao, but they had learned from the wicked and had come looking for her. It just so happened that they had arrived at the right time.

While instructing Red Leaf to leave, he stood up and placed the porcelain bowl fragments on the ground by the door. His smile deepened.

An Si barged in recklessly, looking down on everyone else.

As soon as he walked in, he screamed and squatted down while cursing without care for his appearance, "Ahh... An Xia, you actually dare to scheme against me … "

An Xia knitted his brows as he covered his ears. With a face full of smiles, he walked out. "Isn't this Little Sister Shu? If you want to come, why don't you let me know. Are you alright …"

At this time, Ansi was sitting by the door. One of his feet stepped on a broken piece of porcelain, causing blood to spill out. His teary eyes stared at An Xia, undisguised hatred in his eyes.

"Second Miss …" At this moment, Aunt Zhao's assistant ran in. It was Grandma Li who had given An Xia the poison. She was too slow and wasn't able to stop An Xin.

She had personally poisoned An Xia yesterday and personally witnessed two servants carrying out An Xia's corpse. In the morning, this young miss had gone back to the Residence of An, and even acted out a good show in front of the entrance.

She felt that someone must be secretly helping An Xia.

Just to test it with Anse.

Seeing that Grandma Li had walked in, An Xia raised her hand to give him a fierce slap before sternly shouting, "How did you take care of Little Sister Li? You actually injured her."

His grandma was a bit confused by An Xia's beating. She raised her hand to cover her face and looked at An Xia in disbelief, unable to react. She had actually seen An Xia's good show outside the Residence of An.

But now, An Xia actually dared to hit her!

For the sake of peace of mind, Madame Li had no other choice but to endure her anger. She was Madame Zhao's right-hand woman, and she was the one who had done all of her unspeakable things.

Right now, she was a red person in front of Madame Zhao. Even Madam An didn't dare to directly offend her.

However, An Xia didn't care about that much. These were her enemies, and she wanted to get her revenge little by little.

"This servant knows her wrongs." Old Madame Li was a smart person. If An Xia was perfectly fine when he left Grand Preceptor An's side, then she'd have to deal with this young miss with even more caution.

It looked like a bowl of Crane Head Red had opened the door of enlightenment for this young miss.

Ansi even forgot about the pain and hatred as he stared at An Xia in disbelief. This young mistress who was as timid as a mouse had actually turned into a completely different person.

An Xia finished beating up that old woman. She then lowered her head to look at An Xin. "Little sister Shu has left so much blood on her foot. Quickly go find a doctor …"

"Yes, Eldest Miss …" Grandma Li didn't dare to scold him, so she obediently replied. However, her eyes were full of ruthlessness. She had been in the Residence of An for so many years, but this was the first time she had been treated like this.

"Are you a human or a ghost?" An Si endured the pain and suddenly thought of something. This An Xia seemed to have changed a lot. She covered her mouth with her hands and took in a breath of cold air. Fear was written all over her face. She didn't even dare to look at An Xia.

"What do you mean?" "Everything is fine, why are you cursing me as a ghost?" An Xia had a puzzled look on his face as he looked at An Xin with blinking eyes. "I can't let father hear this. I'll definitely punish you."

An Xia knew that Grand Preceptor An was even more dissatisfied with himself. However, he hadn't hit her just now because he was afraid of her position as the crown prince's consort. She'd rather not have a father like that.

However, with his status right now, An Xia's words made An Si afraid. He didn't dare to reply, so no matter how resentful he was, he could only bear with it.

At this moment, An Xin was even more terrified. Yesterday, she had clearly poured the Crane Head Red into An Xia. Even if she was alive, she wouldn't be able to do anything. However, An Xia was still standing in front of her, completely unharmed.

"Someone, carry the Second Miss back to the East District." An Xia shouted towards the door.

He then lowered his head and gently faced An Xia. "Alright, Little Sister Shu. Your foot is injured. You should go back and take good care of yourself."

As soon as she finished her sentence, she turned around, her smiling face covered with a layer of frost, carrying a cold killing intent.

An Si felt a little cold and hugged her shoulders.

At this time, Grandma Li came back with two girls, supported Ansi and left.

In front of An Xia, he unexpectedly lost his usual arrogance and domineering attitude. As he walked out of An Xia's courtyard, he lifted his uninjured foot and ruthlessly kicked Old Lady Li, who was working for her. "Useless trash, let's see how you'll explain this to my mother."

"Second Miss, this old servant only came out because I saw that she couldn't take it anymore …" Old Lady Li's expression was very unsightly. She couldn't figure out what was going on either, and the Eldest Young Miss seemed to have changed into a completely different person. It was hard to figure out what was going on.

This time's matter was indeed ruined by her. Not only did she not ruin the young miss, she even ruined her good name as the second young miss.

"You mean I just bumped into a ghost?" An Si gave his wife another kick. With a malevolent expression, he gnashed his teeth and said, "An Xia, don't even think about successfully marrying into the palace. I'll definitely take back everything that belongs to me!"
