It was clear to everyone that the wild gusts just now were caused by the War Prince performing his power.
Their eyes showed admiration, worship, as well as shock and anger.
The Pri Minister’s Wife was completely dumbfounded, realizing her previous words were in vain as the War Prince didn’t regard her at all, so she pointed tremulously at Long Rui and said, "You... you..."
This gesture from Long Rui left her incredibly angry, unable to utter a single word.
Long Rui no longer spared her a glance, commanding his n as he arrogantly left.
The entire Pri Minister’s residence was in shambles, a stark contrast to the splendor and grandeur of this morning. To the unknowing, it seed like a ruin awaiting reconstruction!
"Madam, what should we do?" her personal maid asked helplessly.
"Go... to the Imperial Palace... to complain." The Pri Minister’s Wife’s face was ashen with fury; the War Prince knew full well this was the Empress’s family ho yet dared act wantonly—it’s simply too much. No way, she couldn’t let this oppression slide. She had to go to the Imperial Palace to complain to her daughter.
Maid: "The Pri Minister has already gone to the Imperial Palace."
The Pri Minister’s Wife replied angrily, "Just because he’s gone, doesn’t an I can’t go?"
Ever since the Pri Minister had a son with the Nineteenth Aunt, he had beco quite distant from his legal wife. If it weren’t for her having the Empress as her daughter, the position of Main Wife might have been seized by the Nineteenth Aunt.
After the Pri Minister’s son died, the Pri Minister’s Wife was delighted and quietly had soone deal with the Nineteenth Aunt. This woman, empowered by her son, dared to flaunt in front of her. Now without a son, her fate was sealed.
Without a son, the Pri Minister’s Wife dealt with the Nineteenth Aunt. The Pri Minister found out but said nothing.
Because of this, the Pri Minister’s Wife harbored great resentnt towards the Pri Minister, causing their relationship to beco increasingly estranged.
Her anger surged, prompting the maid to hastily say, "Madam, I didn’t an that."
"Then what do you an?"
"Do you rember what happened this morning, madam?"
The Pri Minister’s Wife had been cloistered in the Buddhist hall all day, oblivious to worldly matters, unaware of what transpired outside. If the War Prince hadn’t brought n to tear down the Pri Minister’s residence, she perhaps would still be there reciting scriptures!
The Pri Minister’s Wife: "What happened this morning?"
The maid relayed the events at the main gate from this morning to the Pri Minister’s Wife.
Upon hearing this, the Pri Minister’s Wife was startled, realizing the Pri Minister had done such foolish things; no wonder the War Prince acted so audaciously—it turns out he had sothing to hold over them.
"Peace hadn’t lasted long before the Pri Minister stirred up trouble again; that old fool," cursed the Pri Minister’s Wife.
A while ago, due to the son’s untily death, the Pri Minister went on a rampage, killing people furiously throughout the Capital, causing quite a sensation. If it weren’t for the Empress’s intervention, The Emperor surely wouldn’t have spared him.
Maid: "Madam, should we still go to the palace?"
The Pri Minister’s Wife looked at the dilapidated state of the Pri Minister’s residence, feeling agitated: "Look, the residence is wrecked—if we don’t go to the palace, where will we stay tonight?"
The Pri Minister’s Wife: "Go and pack two outfits; we must head to the palace imdiately."
"Yes."
The maid hurriedly returned inside to pack several outfits to accompany the madam to the palace for a few days, waiting until the Pri Minister’s residence was rebuilt to return and live there.
