I Can't Afford A Princess With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 3

Wait for me? "Where?" Su Xu asked in confusion.

Qing Li subconsciously frowned. Even though he didn' t know whether Su Xu really didn' t know or knew the answer, she still had to answer as a maidservant.

"Today is the day of your return. Your highness naturally wants to accompany Princess back."

He still wanted to return?

She didn' t want to return to the place where the original owner was filled with nightmares. The main reason was that there wasn' t a single person in the manor that she was worried about. She really didn' t know where to go to do it?

Seeing that Su Xu didn' t respond, Qing Li whispered," Princess?"

Only when she heard Qing Li voice did she regain her senses. She recalled that the mother of the original owner was still suffering Prime minister's mansion and taking over someone else's body, so she had to take care of her mother for them. With that in mind, she nodded and casually put on a cloak before leaving with Qing Li.

When he lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw the Chu Mo that was resting with his eyes closed, Su Xu was stunned for a moment. Originally, he wanted to prepare another carriage, but when he thought of how the entire prefecture was waiting to see her joke, he endured it.

Su Xu she thought that she had met all sorts of people, Chu Mo this was the first time she had met someone who Cold ice ice both inside and outside.

In fact, such a person was more suitable to be a military commander. Perhaps his words or even a single glance could make a person lose their battle. It was also because his face made people feel an indescribable sense of mission.

However, Su Xu who was used to being a leader didn' t take this approach. She had never feared someone like Chu Mo, because she was a person like this.

Chu Mo closed his eyes all the way, but Su Xu was very curious about this era. He had been looking out of the window. What was certain was that the South Chu Country was not poor and the standard of living of the people was pretty good.

Having grown tired of watching, Su Xu also put down the curtain and leaned against the carriage to rest. When she closed her eyes, it was also when Chu Mo opened them.

Chu Mo looked at the woman in front of him. She was just like the others had said. She was a peerless beauty. However, compared to this face, he was more curious about the soul behind this face.

After a long time, carriage finally stopped. A voice came from outside the carriage," Your Highness, Princess, we' ve arrived."

Su Xu opened his eyes when he heard the voice. There was no hint of sleep in his eyes.

Chu Mo stood up and was about to get out of the carriage when Su Xu stopped him. He turned around and looked coldly at Su Xu.

She wasn' t Su He daughter of the first wife, and she was able to marry Chu Mo because emperor had taken a fancy to her appearance. Therefore, when she returned, she could have nothing else. The only thing she couldn' t leave was face!

Su Xu directly faced Chu Mo pitch-black eyes without a trace of fear. He warned," Chu Mo, if you dare embarrass me in front of everyone, I' ll make you wear a green hat."

Chu Mo let out a cold harrumph, shook off Su Xu hand, lifted the curtain, and carriage down.

###Chapter4

Su Xu Chu Mo first contact with him, she didn' t know his temperament. However, she firmly believed that no matter which era, the man couldn' t stand his wife wearing a green hat for him, especially someone with Chu Mo status.

That was why Su Xu only made a bet. She hoped that she would make the right bet.

After getting out of the carriage, the Prime minister's mansion people were already waiting in the gate of mansion. When they saw Chu Mo Su Xu, they respectfully cupped their hands and said," This minister Su He participate in your highness and Princess."

"Father-in-law, there's no need to be polite." Although Chu Mo tone was more gentle, it made people feel even more anxious, especially his' father-in-law'.

At the first sight of Su He, Su Xu only felt his heartbeat suddenly quicken, and there was an indescribable nervousness...... Fear, yes, it was fear.

The original owner of this body was afraid of Su He, or perhaps Prime minister's mansion a clan member. It could be seen how many grievances the original owner had suffered in the past ten years.

Su Xu could feel that the original owner did not want to see these people. She glanced at the people at the door, but she could not see the woman she first saw when she passed through, the mother of the original owner.

Su Xu stepped forward and asked," Where's my mother?"

Hearing Su Xu words, Su He was stunned for a moment. He looked at the woman beside him and then said," Your mother's body is unwell, so I let her lie in the room."

It was because he was quite ill, but why he was ill was probably related to the Prime Minister Madam Xu beside him!

A month ago, when emperor issued an edict to grant the marriage, he also issued an edict to Su He raise Su Xu mother as a Wife, so that she could be worthy of Chu Mo.

As for Su Xu mother and daughter, they had always been in a transparent state in the Prime minister's mansion. When they were suddenly lifted into the Wife, they naturally made Su He original mate unhappy. This was also the reason why Su Xu mother was still in bed.

Su Xu was about to say something when gate of mansion stopped another carriage. Everyone followed the carriage and saw a man and a woman walking down from the carriage.

The two walked in front of Su He hand in hand, but when they saw Chu Mo, they respectfully shouted," Zi Yu greets Ninth Uncle, Ninth Imperial Aunt."

The woman beside him bowed to Chu Mo Su Xu.

"The Great Prince is here too. Don' t stand at the door. Come in."

A scene suddenly appeared in Su Xu's mind. Only then did he know that the one who was called the Great Prince was the eldest son Chu Ziyu of the current emperor. The woman next to him was the daughter of the first wife of Prime Minister Su He, the sister of the first wife of Su Xu.

However, it was clear that the relationship between Su He and Chu Ziyu was much gentler than that between Chu Mo. Moreover, it was obvious that Chu Ziyu was indeed easier to get along with than Chu Mo.

One was like the sun, while the other was as cold as an icy mountain.

However, this generation was still a bit strange. Su Suer was Su Xu eldest sister of the first wife, but Su Xu husband was Su Suer husband's royal uncle.

Su Xu curiously turned his head and asked Chu Mo in a low voice," If that's the case, who do I have a higher status with Su Suer?"

Chu Mo didn' t expect that she would ask such an i***t. He only glanced at her and didn' t say anything. Instead, he continued to walk forward.

Su Xu rolled his eyes at him and fiercely despised him in his heart. Then, he turned his head and asked Qing Li same question.

Qing Li was stunned for a moment. He looked at the Chu Mo before replying in a low voice," Of course Princess are a bit higher than the imperial concubine."

"Then, right now, it's her who can' t afford to offend me, not me who can' t afford to offend her?" This was the key question that Su Xu wanted to ask. Although he did not know why, Qing Li still nodded.

After agreeing, Su Xu chased after him with a pleased smile.

——

After arriving at the main hall, Su He chatted with Chu Mo Chu Ziyu. Su Xu thought of the old mother who was lying in bed, he said goodbye and said that he wanted to visit her.

Su He had someone change the courtyard for Lin. Although the facilities inside were not the best, they weren' t bad either. Naturally, it was because they were going to return to Su Xu or show it to Chu Mo.

After hearing that Su Xu had returned, Lin struggled to get off the bed and bow to her. Su Xu supported his weak Lin, his tone hardened." You' re already like this. Do you still have to bow to me?"

Hearing Su Xu berate, Lin paused in his hand. Only then did Su Xu realize that his tone was perfect, and he supported Lin onto the bed.

"Mother, I' m not afraid of losing my daughter."

When Lin heard Su Xu say that, he smiled and held her hand. Seeing that even though she had only been married for two days, her complexion had become much redder. He knew that Chu Mo would not treat her unfairly, so he felt relieved.

"I heard that the ninth prince came back with you?"

Su Xu nodded. If Chu Mo didn' t come, she would have to force him to come. The reason for returning was not because of excitement or etiquette, but because of face.

"The ninth prince...... "How are you?" Lin finished speaking, he lightly coughed. Then, he looked at Su Xu with a worried expression, waiting for her reply.

In another era, Su Xu had been an orphan since he was young and had never been loved by his mother. Now that he had suddenly been Lin concerned about her, his heart warmed.

"Mother, don' t worry. He treats me very well."

There were no good or bad things. Although they were in the same king's estate, they lived their own lives. At the very least, they did not seem to have been bullied in the Prime minister's mansion. To Lin, this was already very good.

"Then Mother will be at ease."

As mothers, they were always concerned about this question.

Afterwards Su Xu accompanied Lin for a while. Only when she saw Lin drink the medicine did she leave.

Unfortunately, as soon as he left the courtyard, he encountered Su Suer.

With Su Xu understanding of people's hearts, Su Suer came with ill intent.

Su Suer wanted to find trouble, but Su Xu didn' t plan on picking up trouble. Instead, he walked around the Su Suer. When he walked behind Su Suer, he heard her shout," Su Xu, your wings are stiff, right? You' re actually not polite when you see me!"

Su Xu paused for a moment before turning his head to look at the Su Suer. His tone was as calm as water," Big sister of the first wife must have messed up her seniority. If it was in the past, I would naturally have bowed to you. However, today, I am the ninth prince concubine. If it wasn' t for the seniority calculation, would elder sister of the first wife have called me Imperial Aunt?"

Su Xu Qing Li by the side was rather surprised by his ability to infuriate others to death. However, he also felt extremely happy.

"Su Xu, you!" Su Suer pointed at the Su Xu, but he couldn' t say a word for a long time.

Perhaps she had not expected that she would still be obedient to her before getting married. In just a few days, she had dared to speak to her like this, yet she did not react.
