After Rebirth, She Becomes the Revenge Queen-Chapter 213 - 210 You Just Change It!

As soon as they entered the Prince Manor, Yang Zhan came out to greet them, followed by Mrs. Zhang and Yongping.

Fu Zhen immediately noticed the smile in Mrs. Zhang’s eyes and the long face of Yongping behind her.

However, today she did not want to cause any upheaval with Yongping.

When Liang Ning was alive, Yongping entangled with her fiancé. This matter was truly nauseating, but last time she had already slapped Yongping, which evened things out.

It really wasn’t worth it to cause constant trouble over Xu Yin.

Of course, if Yongping provoked her again, it would be a different matter.

Anyway, the headpiece crafted in the Ning Family’s Golden Tower was finished, and after these busy days, she would also go to meet Lian Rong.

Fu Zhen greeted them separately: "Princess Consort, Princess Yongping, it’s been a long time since we last met. Are both of you well?"

"All good," Mrs. Zhang replied with a smile, "I didn’t know back at Baihe Temple that the good news between you and General Pei was so close. You’ve really kept it under wraps."

Fu Zhen said, "The marriage issue is under the parents’ jurisdiction, not ours. Although our Ning Family has no status or position, we are a family of rules and cannot allow our children to act recklessly."

Mrs. Zhang invited them on the pretense of Pei Zhan’s face, not Fu Zhen’s; hence the slightly mocking tone. Unexpectedly, she was not one to hold back and returned the comment just like that!

The facade of Prince Rong’s Mansion was noble, yet her brother-in-law had just had a conflict with He Qunying and bullied his concubine. They were claiming the Ning Family was a family of rules. Did that imply the Zhang Family was not?

Mrs. Zhang was irked but could say nothing, so she just smiled and led them inside.

Listening to Fu Zhen’s words behind, Yongping’s mouth twitched.

She had been secretly exchanging affection with Xu Yin before Liang Ning died. Although outsiders did not know, hearing the words from Fu Zhen’s mouth felt like a slap to her face...

Inside, Prince Rong and Princess Rong were already seated. Prince Rong was different from Princess Rong. Upon assuming her position, Princess Rong looked down upon others, while Prince Rong, coming from humble beginnings, had suffered much from the generals in court. Therefore, he maintained a humble attitude with them.

But just looking at his slightly smiling face, who would have thought this wealthy old man was the main culprit in quietly murdering a father and son and destroying the evidence? And at least half of Liang Ning’s fate rested on him?

Pei Zhan was conversing with the Prince Rong and his son. freёweɓnovel_com

Fu Zhen was waiting to turn around and talk to Mrs. Zhang and them, to inquire about the news of Zhang Shicheng being beaten. Her silent demeanor fell into the eyes of Princess Rong and her daughter, appearing small-minded and reserved.

Last time, Fu Zhen hit Yongping. Princess Rong was furious, but she couldn’t retaliate immediately because the marriage announcement with Pei Zhan had just come. She had to hold back.

Moreover, today they were invited by Mrs. Zhang. How could she willingly accept Mrs. Zhang getting such strong support from Pei Zhan?

She observed Fu Zhen for a long time, but although Fu Zhen was silent, there was not a trace of reservation. Princess Rong then said, "The General’s wife is young. Is she not accustomed to such occasions? Don’t be afraid; our manor doesn’t have that many rules."

Both Lian Yongping and Mrs. Zhang judged people disdainfully; how could Princess Rong be any better?

But Fu Zhen’s target today wasn’t her. Whatever she said, Fu Zhen didn’t want to take it to heart.

Just as she was about to respond, Princess Rong continued, "Your mother is fortunate, her daughter became the General Pingxi’s wife, so naturally, her status rises too.

"By the way, does she still go to the shop daily?"

After speaking, she glanced at the pair of invaluable Mutton Fat Jade bracelets on Fu Zhen’s wrist.

Fu Zhen hadn’t expected her to show her hand so quickly!

Was she going to speak about her status now?

But if she had to speak about her, why drag Ning’s wife into it?

Why ridicule a kind, honest, hardworking homemaker?!

Fu Zhen glanced over, "No need for you to envy my mother. Although my mother is fortunate, she learned the excellent skill of managing finances since childhood and is praised as a virtuous woman.

"But since you have already realized there are no rules in the manor, you might as well change that.

"In due time, you might also manage the household as well as my mother."

Princess Rong was taken aback, her back straightening involuntarily.

But before she could respond, Fu Zhen continued, "I heard from my mother-in-law that the Empress emphasizes rules the most. Rest assured, I won’t speak of any rulelessness of the manor to reach the Empress."

Fu Zhen wasn’t someone with a good temper. These three people fought secretly to the death yet appeared care-free outwardly, clearly with concerns.

Besides the royal palace, who else could she imagine? She had to bring out the Empress to put pressure!

Yongping bristled. "You have such a sharp tongue, so rude, are you not afraid of harming General Pei’s dignity?"

Fu Zhen turned her face to her: "This statement from the Commandery Princess is puzzling. Is it rude if I don’t respond to Princess Rong’s questions?

"If I don’t reply to an elder’s question, does that maintain General Pei’s dignity?

"Moreover, if a man’s dignity is so easily hurt and has to be carefully maintained by a woman all the time, that just shows his lack of capability!

"Vice Minister Xu wouldn’t need a similar level of maintenance from you, would he?"

Unable to argue with her, Yongping pursed her lips tightly in anger, her chest heaving, holding back for a long time with almost a slap about to fly over!

Mrs. Zhang coughed lightly, covering her mouth.

Fu Zhen, however, comfortably toyed with a piece of amber on the table, as if entirely oblivious to the impact of her words.

Pei Zhan’s gaze flicked to her twice, then he spoke, "My wife doesn’t really enjoy attending social gatherings. Let’s drink this tea, and I’ll visit another day."

The father and son were planning to have a good conversation. Why leave suddenly?

Prince Rong surveyed them, understanding somewhat, and said, "How could you leave right after arriving? You must stay for lunch today.

"Daughter-in-law, you and Yongping accompany the General’s wife for a walk in the garden.

"I’ll have the dinner prepared, you young folks spend some time together first."

With that, he called Princess Rong to rise.

Seeing Princess Rong rise, Yongping stood up too: "I’ll check in the kitchen for father and mother."

Princess Rong glanced at her, "I can go, you accompany your sister-in-law with the General’s wife."

Yongping responded, "Helping set up the dining hall would be the same."

Princess Rong said nothing more.

Once the three of them left, Mrs. Zhang teased Fu Zhen, "I truly like a straightforward person like you! General Pei as well, why didn’t he bring you out earlier for us to meet?

"I’ve already had refreshments set up in the garden, shall we chat there?"

Fu Zhen came today with purpose, and it was not easy for Yongping and them to walk away; naturally, she went along with it, "Please, Princess Consort, lead the way."
