NovelEnglishChapter 580: Scheming
After this decree was passed down, anguished howls immediately echoed throughout the entire room.
Old Madam was bewildered.
When did she ever sincerely want to leave the marquis’s estate? Where else could she live in such comfort?
She was only wailing this offhandedly; how could it be taken for the truth!
They had just moved from a small estate to such a grand marquis’s estate, so she hadn’t enjoyed her fill of these pleasurable days. Yet the crown prince decreed for her to move out and live outside with her youngest son and daughter-in-law?

Glimpsing at Old Madam and noticing that she was about to start protesting, Xu Jiao very swiftly used her filthy, black hand to muffle Old Madam’s mouth.
Only if they brought the old lady out with them could they still have connections to the eldest branch later on.
Otherwise, how could they continue to claim connections to the eldest branch in the future after being tossed out this time?
Xu Jiao wasn’t foolish. Just the opposite, she was actually very shrewd.
She knew that she had to keep a hold on Qiao Zhongbang’s mother, because due to that man’s honest and considerate character, he would definitely give in one day.
At that time, their third branch would certainly be able to return...
Pulling along her son Qiao Long, Xu Jiao groveled on the ground with her husband Qiao Zhongheng, and the family of three kowtowed humbly several times in succession. Then, the soldiers brusquely hoisted them up and beat each person with 30 planks before promptly tossing them out the main door.
Granny Niu’s eyes rolled around in a calculative circle, and she cried out, “Ziqin, ah. I’m from the same village as you...”
However, she was immediately met with a sweep of the crown prince’s severe gaze. This frightened her so much that she instantly stifled her belly full of words, and her knees went soft, causing her to kneel.
“Where did these noisy idle people come from? Throw them out!”
Immediately after the crown prince reprimanded coldly, seven to eight soldiers swarmed over like tigers and wolves. They impolitely whacked Granny Niu’s family with their clubs several times before dragging away the group of clamoring people and promptly shoving them outside the main door. They immediately rolled into a pile with Qiao Zhongheng’s family of three.

This year’s horoscope truly was unlucky! She had originally planned to grandiosely enter the marquis’s estate along with Xu Jiao’s family to enjoy life. Yet she didn’t expect that all the people in Xu Jiao’s family couldn’t handle the matter properly and instead ended up provoking the current crown prince’s anger, which directly swept all of them out the door!
Oh my, my, it angered Granny Niu to death, it angered her to death!
Meanwhile, Wei Mingli was ballistic and screeching on the inside. She was a twenty-eight-year-old young lady, yet those nefarious soldiers just snatched her up and tossed her out the door, completely obliterating her dignity.
It truly shattered her maiden heart into smithereens, which pained her to no end.
That unfeeling royal crown prince, with just a sweep of his terrifying gaze, was able to shut up everyone present at once.
Wei Mingli felt agitated and restless, as if a kitten was clawing at her heart. Her eyes cast a jealous and resentful gaze at the marquis’s estate’s tightly shut main door, her heart full of unwillingness.
“Grandmother, are we not going to do anything after being swept out the door like this?” Wei Mingli twisted her sleeves and bit her bottom lip, her words imbued with unwillingness.
Jolting in shock, her mother Madam née Sun raised her hand and smacked her back heavily. “You’re courting disaster! You still dare to talk nonsense! You truly were too audacious just now! Actually daring to stare at His Highness like that? You’re not afraid that it would infuriate His Highness, making him behead you?”
“My, isn’t it because there are ripples in the little lady’s maiden heart? Pshaw! So brazen and shameless!”
