"Since you entered the palace, life in our West Courtyard has become increasingly difficult!"
"Even if my mother-in-law is just the late king's concubine, she can still be regarded as a concubine, but you don't even show her the respect she deserves!"
"Not only did you never take her seriously, but you even embarrassed her in public when we held a banquet in the west courtyard to entertain guests!"
"How long has it been since the West Court's status was granted? Isn't the West Courtyard the palace of Prince An? Are Qingqing and I not our father's children? What qualifications do you have to cut off our status?"
"Now that we, mother and son, are in the mansion, how can we live like masters? Even the servants look down on us!"
Wu Zhengqing roared at the top of his lungs, listing Luo Tong's "crimes" one by one, as if he had abused them.
The sounds around him gradually faded away, and everyone's faces were full of hesitation and disbelief.
After all, Prince An was well-known, and although Princess An had a bad reputation at first, everyone in the capital now knew the rumors that those were people with malicious intentions.
Wu Zhengqing, on the other hand, has always had a reputation as an idler. Not to mention compared to Wu Zechen, even ordinary talents in the capital can't compare.
What such a person says is not very convincing.
When Wu Zhengqing saw the reactions of the people around him, he was extremely angry. He wanted to incite the emotions of the people around him, but he didn't expect that no one believed him!
This woman Luo Tong! Hasn’t it always been a bad image in people’s eyes? !
When did the change begin? !
Just when Wu Zhengqing was filled with anger and was about to say something more, the curtain of the carriage was suddenly opened, and a slightly bloated figure appeared in front of everyone.
She has an obvious pregnancy belly and her figure is a little plumper, but her appearance has not diminished at all, and is even more beautiful.
When she appeared in front of everyone, the radiance in her eyes was so strong that even the scorching sun behind her was dimmed a bit, and her aura was so powerful that no one dared to underestimate her at first sight.
As soon as Luo Tong appeared, he looked directly at Wu Zhengqing, his eyes filled with awe-inspiring and powerful aura, which actually made Wu Zhengqing's expression look a little unnatural.
But when he thought about the trouble this time, he could only hold on and said: "Now there are so many people watching and testifying for us in the West Courtyard, do you still want to continue to persecute us?!"
"Persecution? Ha!" Luo Tong sneered and looked at him with cold eyes, "Your ability to confuse right and wrong and frame things up is something you learned 100% from your mother."
She did not give Wu Zhengqing a chance to speak again, and continued: "Concubine Xu is just a concubine of the late king, not a princess of the royal family, but she does not know her identity. As a married woman, I will interfere more with the prince’s affairs.”
"I would like to ask, whose concubine of the late old master can give advice to the current head of the family? Are there any rules anymore? What kind of person is the prince, who allows her to act so arrogantly?"
"Don't talk about a concubine, has Concubine Xu ever fulfilled her duties as a concubine for a day? The prince left home when he was eight years old and did not return to the capital until last year. Everyone in the capital knows about this."
"Then I would like to ask the Second Young Master, what has happened to the property of Prince An's Mansion in the past ten to twenty years? What happened to the dowry industry of the late old princess?"
Wu Zhengqing's face suddenly turned ugly when he suddenly heard Luo Tong mention this matter, but Luo Tong had no intention of letting him go.
Since Wu Zhengqing wanted to show up to her and dared to slander herself, then don't blame her for exposing the dirty things about Concubine Xu and the three of them in public!
Without giving Wu Zhengqing a chance to intervene, Luo Tong continued talking without stopping.
"The prince was still young at that time, and it was hard to make a mistake in taking the temporary custody of Princess Xu, but these profits will not belong to Princess Xu!"
"Not to mention the income from the palace's own industry, but the old princess's dowry is not something she, a concubine, can get her hands on!"
"But what's the result?"
"None of the income from the old princess's dowry industry, including that of the old princess, has been handed over to the prince. Even now, not a cent of the money from previous years has been returned."
"Then I would like to ask, Second Young Master, where is the money?! Where did all the money that did not belong to Concubine Xu Side go?"
"My mother-in-law, my mother-in-law is just helping to save it for the time being! Don't be slanderous! It's so kind-hearted that there is no reward!" Wu Zhengqing said with a blushing face.
"Good intentions? The prince has been back for a year, and the income from previous years has not been returned to the prince. How long are you going to 'keep' it for him temporarily?"
"The prince is now twenty-six years old and has a family. What qualifications do you have to take care of the prince's money? A concubine of the former king and a concubine? Manage the accounts of the royal princess and the current prince? Which country's rules are these? We Dazhou doesn’t have that!”
"You have occupied the royal palace's income for so many years, and you haven't handed over a single cent. How dare you shout about being deducted from the quota? The money you have embezzled, if calculated according to the quota, is enough for you to live in the coffin. !”
"If you live such a prosperous life, how can you not compare with the servants in the mansion? Whose servants in the mansion live such a good life?"
"As for respect, are you worthy of it? While the prince and I are not in the palace, you dare to take it upon yourself to force a concubine into the main house. Do you really think you can surpass the prince and be his master?"
"Whose old concubine can arrange a concubine for the current head of the family and stuff people into the house of the head of the family on their own initiative? You yourself don't know how to respect others, so don't blame others for disrespecting you!"
Luo Tong's comparison directly made Wu Zhengqing blush. He was directly comparing Concubine Xu to a concubine!
But he was very angry, but the people around him couldn't help but snickered. They thought in their hearts that she was indeed Princess An, and her words were still so sharp and pointed to the point.
But after hearing what she said, when he looked at Wu Zhengqing, his eyes became even more unfriendly.
The three of them, Concubine Xu, mother and son, actually took advantage of the palace's property income, and even the old princess's dowry property, without giving Prince An even a cent!
It's too much!
Who doesn’t know that Prince An has been fighting life and death at the Western Border over the years, not only guarding the border, but also making the Western Border the most stable border in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty!
But who would have thought that while the heroes of the common people of the Great Zhou Dynasty were bravely fighting the enemy and fighting to the death on the border, the concubine in his family was actually doing such a thing? !
For a time, everyone accused Wu Zhengqing, and some even pointed at Wu Zhengqing angrily and cursed.
