Chapter 1131: Chapter 1131 Wealthy Master Zhang

Seeing her father’s troubled expression, Miss Zhang steeled her heart: "Father, don’t worry. I will agree to this."

For the safety of her family, Miss Zhang decided to sacrifice herself.

"Daughter!"

Seeing his daughter act so sensible, Wealthy Master Zhang felt even more grief-stricken, his voice choked with sobs, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Miss Zhang had lived a life of absolute seclusion, barely stepping out of the house. She had no understanding of the treacherous nature of people. She thought entering Prince Pu’s Mansion was merely to serve as a maid. However, Wealthy Master Zhang knew deep down that despite being called a maid, in truth, she was to become Tang Jinghao’s chambermaid—lower even than a concubine.

"Father, don’t worry about this. It’s merely being a maid, just some simple tasks. I understand."

Miss Zhang’s words only caused Wealthy Master Zhang to break down in uncontrollable tears.

Prince Chu, seeing his goal had been achieved, paid no further notice to their agony: "Since Wealthy Master Zhang has already agreed, Miss Zhang will come back to the mansion with us."

With that, he waved his hand, signaling the two guards behind him to take Miss Zhang away.

Wealthy Master Zhang and his wife immediately lunged forward, holding their daughter tightly and crying in anguish: "My poor girl! Why is your fate so cruel? After being a proper Miss for over ten years, now you’ve fallen to becoming someone’s maid. You know nothing of the world. When the time comes, won’t it be suffering day after day, being beaten and scolded?"

"Our poor child!"

"Yesterday, I shouldn’t have gone out. If I had stayed home to watch over you, none of this would’ve happened."

The sobbing couple clung to their daughter as they wailed, the heartbreaking scene moving the bystanders to tears.

Seeing the delay and reluctance of the couple, Prince Pu grew impatient and turned to the steward: "Pull them apart. Let’s not delay our timing to return to the mansion."

"Understood."

The steward replied with a nod, then bellowed to the guards behind him: "What useless fools! Haven’t you heard the Prince’s orders? Quickly pull them apart and take Miss Zhang away!"

Faced with the steward’s scolding, the guards dared not argue and obediently stepped forward to forcibly pull Wealthy Master Zhang and his wife away.

The couple couldn’t bear to let their daughter go, crying and shouting all the while, creating an achingly sorrowful scene.

The bystanders, watching from the sidelines, shook their heads in dismay. At first, they had believed Prince Pu to be a man of integrity. But by the end, his ugly true face was exposed—he intended to take the girl into Prince Pu’s Mansion as a maid without even spending a copper coin.

This was truly a cunning move!

And he dared to prettify it by claiming it was compensation for medical fees.

Even a fool could see through these excuses; the ultimate goal was clearly Miss Zhang.

Yesterday, Tang Jinghao had intruded and harassed Miss Zhang; today, Prince Pu had come to take her away under the guise of hiring a maid. No one was naïve; naturally, they understood what this "maid" position truly meant.

Amid the uproar, chaos erupted at the edge of the crowd.

From outside, a sedan chair appeared.

Everyone turned to look—it was the legitimate eldest Miss from the General’s Mansion. They hurriedly made way for her...

Xuexue was sitting in the sedan chair, planning to visit the flower shop. Unexpectedly, she arrived at this scene, where a crowd had gathered, blocking her path. She stepped down to see what was happening.

With Zi Xia by her side, she walked to the front of the crowd and inspected the situation...

There, Wealthy Master Zhang and his wife were still struggling against the guards’ restraint, trying desperately to catch one last glimpse of their daughter.

But ordinary commoners like them were no match for the guards. Powerless, they could only stare helplessly as their daughter was dragged away.

Miss Zhang, weeping, was shoved into the sedan chair by the guards.

Upon witnessing this scene, Xuexue spoke mockingly: "Oh my, in broad daylight, Prince Pu is forcibly taking a citizen’s daughter. Are you relying on your princely status to openly defy the imperial laws?"
