Reborn as the Crippled King's Beloved

Murong Jiu, the Ninth Young Miss of the Marquis Mansion, was ugly and talentless, and her fate was to harm her relatives. She was raised in the countryside from a young age.

Reincarnated, she returned like a vengeful ghost from hell, making her enemies tremble with fear, ready to seek revenge for each grievance. Unexpectedly, she unintentionally became the darling of her biological family, which made her retract her sharp edges. As the substitute Princess Consort of Prince Ling, she and Prince Ling were a fake couple, intent only on finding the real father of the child in her womb, yet unaware that the man from that night was right in front of her…

Chapter 295: Will Consort Qin Help Us?

Murong Jiu suddenly smelled the invisible scent of gunpowder.

She belatedly realized that Lou Zixi seemed to be questioning Jun Yuyan?

Why? Was it because he was defending her?

Jun Yuyan simply responded in a muted voice, "The Liu Family is agitating the tenant farmers, and I will handle it properly."

Lou Zixi cracked a slight smile, "If that is so, I can rest assured. The Princess Consort's major plans concern the fundamental welfare of the people, and I too hope that the people can live and work in peace and contentment."

"Is that so?" Are you truly concerned about the people?

Jun Yuyan chuckled noncommittally.

Lou Zixi returned the smile, "Of course."

Murong Jiu frowned slightly, what sort of verbal sparring were the two engaging in?

Why was there suddenly a feeling of crossing swords?

However, the two quickly shifted the topic, discussing the goods brought by the overseas merchant convoy and the newly built port in Tianjin Guard.
