Xue Ru Was Beaten

Upon hearing Xue Ru's words, the anger that Old Madam Xue had just calmed flared up instantly.

Xue Yan hurriedly approached, "Mother, please calm down and speak rationally with Ru Er. Don't get angry."

"She's nothing but trouble."

"Xue Ru, this is your aunt's courtyard. I don't want to punish you here, making it a spectacle for others. But pack your things immediately. I'll have someone send you back to Qing Zhou."

"I won't return. I... I already belong to Prince Qing."

When she mentioned the last sentence, Xue Ru spoke softly, but everyone in the hall heard her.

Upon hearing this, the Old Madam Xue's eyes widened in shock, and her finger, pointing at Xue Ru, trembled, "You... what did you just say..."

"Mother?"

"Grandmother?"

Old Madam Xue suddenly fall to one side, both Xue Yan and Jiang Peihuan rushed forward.

Jiang Peihuan quickly took out a pill from her possession and placed it into the old madam's mouth.
