The world has gone mad; the movie queen's rebirth mission is to have children.

Chapter 275 A Substitute Bride's Brave Love, A Prince Without Heirs Forever By Her Side - 5

The usually arrogant and domineering Li Ping was humiliated in public by the prince, much to the delight of the other two concubines, who were both forcing themselves to suppress their laughter.

Mu Wanwan moved to his side somewhat fearfully, and he immediately reached out and took her small hand. "Don't be afraid~"

His tone was completely different from before, and Mu Wanwan had no idea what this man was thinking.

She stood beside him, somewhat frightened, and softly called out, "Your Highness~ I~"

"Don't be afraid. From now on, you will be the princess of the royal palace. These women are of lower rank than you. If they dare to disobey you, you have the right to deal with them directly. Do you understand?"

Mu Wanwan deliberately moved closer to him, speaking in a very low voice so that only the two of them could hear her.

Seeing her cautious and careful demeanor, his heart tightened.

If she were truly a wealthy young lady, she would be adept at handling household affairs. However, she must have been excluded from the Mu family because she was not favored, which led to her current cautious and timid personality.

In the past, he would turn a blind eye to the jealousy and rivalry between several women, whether someone was injured or fighting. Only when the matter came to his attention would he ask each of them to take 50% of the blame.

Judging from the current situation, Mu Wanwan is no match for them at all. Now that she has arrived at the Prince's Mansion and temporarily become the Princess Consort, he has an obligation to support her.

"Your Highness, my sisters! I...I dare not!"

The three concubines clenched their fists at their sides, their teeth almost grinding to powder. They glared angrily, but dared not speak out, looking utterly ridiculous.

"There is a distinction between superiors and inferiors. They are concubines. Why are you calling them 'sister'? From now on, you are not allowed to call them 'sister'!"

"Oh~"

Aunt Mei quickly leaned close to her ear, "Your Highness, you must say yes!"

"Yes!"

The prince nodded in satisfaction. Mu Wanwan realized that the prince was backing her up, and whispered to him, "Thank you, Your Highness!"

The maids who were serving there naturally heard what the prince said and understood that the princess would be in charge of the household from now on, so they dared not neglect her in the slightest.

After the prince announced the start of the meal, everyone at the table ate their first meal in complete silence.

On the first day of the new bride's marriage, she was required to serve tea to the elders. The prince's mother waited for the two of them in the main seat.

"I am a very open-minded person right now, so you don't need to be nervous."

The prince noticed that Mu Wanwan's palms were slightly sweaty, so he helped her prepare mentally beforehand.

"Ok!"

The two men knelt down before their mother and offered her tea.

Mu Wanwan handed her mother a teacup. "Mother, please have some tea!"

The mother slowly reached out and took the teacup from Mu Wanwan's hand, gazing at Mu Wanwan kneeling before her.

He couldn't help but admire his son's good taste; his daughter-in-law was stunningly beautiful. No wonder he insisted on marrying the Mu family's daughter to bring good fortune and make her a princess.

Her gaze fell on Mu Wanwan's waist, and she frowned slightly.

With a slender waist and small hips, she's probably destined to have difficulty conceiving.

Since her son liked it, she had nothing to say. She took a sip of tea and put the teacup aside.

She instructed the steward to present the gift she had prepared for Mu Wanwan. "Your Highness, you must know that your main purpose in coming to the Prince's residence is to ensure the continuation of the Prince's lineage. The Prince values ​​you highly, so please do not disappoint me or the Prince."

Immediately, a Guanyin statue symbolizing the granting of children was handed to Mu Wanwan. "This Guanyin statue symbolizes many children and many blessings. I obtained it after praying for eighty-one days. Take it back and offer it to her."

Mu Wanwan accepted the Guanyin statue with both hands, not daring to slack off at all. Then, a bunch of keys was handed to her.

"These are the keys to the accounting office and the storeroom. You will be in charge of keeping them from now on. I'm too old to manage these things."

Mu Wanwan's mind raced. Based on her past experience with scripts, she knew that the prince's mother probably didn't genuinely want to hand over control of the palace to her.

She handed the Guanyin statue to Aunt Mei, who was waiting nearby, and kowtowed directly to her mother, saying, "Mother, I am the youngest in the Mu family and have never been in contact with account books or the storeroom. If I were to take over rashly, it might cause turmoil in the Prince's mansion. Please continue to safeguard it, Mother."

The mother was very satisfied with Mu Wanwan's performance and answer. Her gaze fell on her son, and she nodded slightly.

The prince had actually guessed his mother's intentions, but he didn't expose her directly. In fact, he also wanted to see if the woman in front of him was truly forced into a marriage to bring good luck, as she claimed.

If it were for the power and wealth of the royal palace, she would probably be eager to take over the keys to the accounting office and the storeroom right now, secretly delighted that her wish had been fulfilled.

She did not disappoint the prince's expectations. Based on her performance last night and today, he was basically certain that Mu Wanwan was not someone who coveted power and wealth.

“Mother, Wanwan has just arrived at the Prince’s Mansion. I think it would be better to let her learn from you. It’s not too late to hand over the power of management to her after she has completed her studies.”

When the prince spoke up for Mu Wanwan, his mother naturally knew that her son was protecting his wife. She waved her hand, and the key that had been placed in front of Mu Wanwan was taken away.

"Since my son Yucheng suggests that you learn first, then you can learn from me!"

"Thank you, Mother!"

After the prince stood up, he reached out and helped Mu Wanwan up as well. "Thank you, Your Highness."

"Wanwan, you and Aunt Mei go and prepare for the homecoming. I want to have a private talk with Yucheng."

The prince nodded slightly, and Mu Wanwan left with the Guanyin statue that grants children.

"Piggy, what do you think those two, mother and son, will say?"

Piggy sat on Mu Wanwan's shoulder and left with her.

“Master, you and the prince did not consummate your marriage last night, so there was no blood. His mother should be questioning you right now.”

Mu Wanwan slapped her forehead, feeling extremely annoyed. Seeing Mu Wanwan suddenly stop, Aunt Mei, who was behind her, quickly stepped forward to ask with concern, "Your Highness, what's wrong?"

"Aunt Mei, I'm fine, I'm fine. I just saw my mother and I was still nervous."

She was annoyed that she had completely forgotten about bleeding on her first night; last night she was only concerned with saving her own life and hadn't thought to overlook this detail.

Well, it seems that the Prince is the real authority in the Prince's mansion today. I heard that the Prince is my mother's only son. As long as the Prince is still by her side, my mother will naturally forgive the fact that the two of them did not consummate their marriage last night.

Just as Zhu Zhu had predicted, after Mu Wanwan left, Zhuo Yucheng knelt before his mother once again.

"You two chatted all night under the covers?"

"Old ginger is spicier; nothing a son does can escape his mother's discerning eye."

She poked Zhuo Yucheng's forehead with a look of exasperation, completely mimicking the loving expression she had when serving tea just moments before. "Let me tell you, Zhuo Yucheng, you and Mu Wanwan must give me a grandson, or I'll never forgive you."

“Mother, Wanwan was forced into marriage by our Zhuo family. Now that she has married into the Prince’s mansion, it’s only a matter of time before they consummate their marriage.”

"I don't know what to say about you!"
