    0039 Upset (3)

    After hearing the arrogant words of the second concubine, Hua Xuan’s clenched fists that had been hidden in her sleeves relaxed. She still looked at the second concubine with a smile. Since some people are shameless now, there is no need for her to pretend to be a good Samaritan.

    “You can’t say that, madam, the place you are standing now is my sixth brother’s place. If he finds out that you treat my sixth sister-in-law like this, what do you think he will do?”

    When Hua Xuan was preparing to fight back, Li Yibai walked in from the door.He was dressed in eye-catching red clothes that could not be ignored, and his proud look made the maids in the room beat loudly. Especially when faced with his evil smile, some maids who lacked the heart capacity fainted directly.

    Different from the suffocating feeling of the maids, Hua Xuan, the moment she saw Li Yibai walk in, her body temperature dropped instantly, and her body unconsciously took a few steps back. If her face was not blackened by toner, she could still see her pale face and her lips trembling constantly.

    When Li Yibai saw Hua Xuan’s pitiful look, the desire to protect her arose spontaneously, and he showed no mercy when facing the vicious second concubine.

    “As far as I know, the Prime Minister’s Office is not as good to my sixth sister-in-law as Madam says, no matter whether the newspaper report is true or false. It’s okay if it’s not true. If it is true, my Sixth Brother will investigate thoroughly. I think this is more than Madam can bear!”

    The second aunt saw Li Yibai coming so menacingly, and she was panicked by him. After hearing Li Yibai’s words, she couldn’t help but shudder when she recalled that Hua Xuan was tortured by her in the past.

    She initially thought that Hua Xuan’s marriage to the Sixth Prince was just a deal, and that the Sixth Prince would soon dislike her. However, she never expected that the Sixth Prince treated Hua Xuan like a treasure. Although the Sixth Prince’s status in the officialdom was not high, and he was not very favored, but based on his status among the people, the good reputation that the Prime Minister’s Office had maintained would be destroyed if he took action, so the power of the Sixth Prince should not be underestimated.

    The second aunt was standing on the chair behind her, her lips were trembling desperately, a smile appeared on her pale face, and she pretended to be calm and said: “Ninth Prince, please don’t slander our Prime Minister’s Office casually. I treat the second girl… but I’m very good. If you continue to say such nonsense, I will sue the government.”

    “Second girl, I… I’m here to visit you today. Since it’s inconvenient for you, I’d better leave. I… I’ll come back another day.” The second aunt saw Hua Xuan’s indifferent look, and she secretly wondered if Hua Xuan would blow some wind in Li Yiwen’s ears. If that happened, it would be bad. It would be better for her to go back to find someone to discuss the countermeasures first.

    Seeing the embarrassment of the second aunt, Li Yibai wanted to laugh, but when he thought of the rumors in the market, he felt even more sorry for Hua Xuan. No matter whether it was true or not, as long as he treated Hua Xuan badly, he would have to make them pay the price.

    “I wonder why the Ninth Prince came all the way here?” Hua Xuan suppressed her inner resistance to Li Yibai. As the hostess of the house, she could not neglect the guests or be rude to Li Yiwen no matter what.

    “Brother Six entrusted me to take good care of Sister-in-law Six before he left, so I wanted to tell Sister-in-law Six when I came today. I may have to disturb you at home for a few days.” Li Yibai saw Hua Xuan still looking scared and defensive. He thought Hua Xuan still had lingering fears about the second concubine, so he immediately took out the letter from his chest to show the authenticity of his words.

    Hua Xuan opened the envelope. Although there were only a few words, she told Li Yibai to take good care of Hua Xuan. But did Li Yiwen know what Li Yibai had done to her? If he knew how stupid his arrangement was, would he regret it?

    Hua Xuan carefully collected the letter, took a few steps back defensively, and said respectfully, “In that case, I have been bothering the Ninth Prince these past few days. I am feeling a little unwell, so I will take my leave now. Ninth Prince, please excuse me.”

    Before Li Yibai could respond, Hua Xuan was supported by Fang Fei and walked away quickly. Her cold body was trembling as her mind began to recall the content of the novel.she clearly remembers a section in the novel where floods were flooding in the south, and the imperial court transferred a prince to provide disaster relief. Then the heroine showed her brilliance and worked with the prince to save the common people.

    But that prince was not Li Yiwen but Li Yibai. What did she miss that led to such chaos?Is it because she changed the fate of the heroine, causing what happened next to be different?

    No, someone must have tampered with it. Her recent panic and irritability seemed to indicate that something big might happen in the future. She wanted to figure everything out now so that she could nip it in the bud.
