Chapter 2130: Chapter 2130: The Servant with an Unknown Identity

"The consort here must take the opportunity to thank Eighth Prince for caring so much about my family," she said to the prince. "After all, they are relatives from my side of the family and it wouldn’t be appropriate to trouble the people of Prince Niu’s Mansion too much. I shall have my own servants take care of them."

As she was speaking, she turned to Prince Niu and continued.

"Otherwise, if outsiders found out about this, they might think that our Prince Niu’s Mansion has no one to rely on and necessitated the Eighth Prince to specially assign some people to take care of my family.

Though I ply for nothing else, I do have some loyal servants of my own."

"Princess Consort, what are you saying? Your relatives are naturally my relatives as well," Prince Niu promptly replied.

Has he no shame?

If it were known to outsiders that he, Prince Niu, wouldn’t even care for his consort’s distressed family and left her to tend to them alone, wouldn’t he be laughed out of society when he steps outside?

And besides, what the princess consort said is quite true. Why has he only now felt that it was strange for the Eighth Brother to behave this way?

Since they are the princess consort’s family, what business does it have to do with the Eighth Brother?

Why is the Eighth Brother so eagerly whispering in his ear that they would bring misfortune to Prince Niu’s Mansion?

Where did he even get the idea that these people could cause trouble for Prince Niu’s Mansion?

"Princess consort, the Eighth Brother was just speaking out of turn. You shouldn’t take it to heart. Eighth Brother, you have gone too far this time. What does it matter if your Fifth Sister-in-law’s relatives stay at Prince Niu’s Mansion for a few days?

You are truly making a mountain out of a molehill. Also, those two servants you gave me yesterday, take them back today. There is no shortage of servants here in Prince Niu’s Mansion, and there’s no need for the Eighth Brother to go out of his way to care for your Fifth Sister-in-law’s family."

Thinking back on his consort’s words, he felt that his Eighth Brother’s suggestion yesterday to send two people to Prince Niu’s Mansion to take care of that family was really a terrible idea.

A grand Prince Niu’s Mansion surely can’t be lacking servants to the point of needing to borrow them from Eighth Prince’s Mansion, right?

"This..."

Listening to the conversation between this husband and wife, Yin Lvqing was barely able to hold back and probably would have turned ashen by now.

He often sent a few people to keep an eye on Prince Niu’s Mansion, and those men were foolishly brought into the household by his own Fifth Brother.

Thus, Prince Niu’s Mansion had always been under his watchful eye.

But he hadn’t expected that the Princess Consort Niu, with just a few casual remarks, had directly turned Prince Niu against him.

And to think, he was told to take back those servants he had arranged to send in.

However, even with all this, he exhaled a small breath of relief, at least not all the people he had brought in previously had to leave.

"Since the prince believes that there are plenty of servants in Prince Niu’s Mansion, then those servants you brought back with undefined identities should all be thrown out of the mansion, just like what Eighth Prince said.

This is Prince Niu’s Mansion, not a place where just any riffraff can come in," Princess Consort Niu continued.

Upon hearing these words, the expression on Yin Lvqing’s face turned completely dark.

Only at this moment was he truly certain—Princess Consort Niu was really set on opposing him.

All the things she had never mentioned before, how did this woman bring them up all at once?

"Servants with unclear identities?"

Prince Niu furrowed his brow upon hearing her words.

It took him a long while to regain his composure and understand which servants his consort was referring to.
