Chapter 158.3 – Goodbye Fang Jun Ping
The servant outside looked at her indifferently and said, “Quiet. If you keep making noise, you’ll regret it.”
Those words frightened Fang Jun Ping.
Seeing that she finally calmed down, the servant stopped paying attention to her. If it weren’t for the fact that the prince’s mansion didn’t have a dungeon area, they wouldn’t have locked her in the woodshed, because the woodshed in Prince Fu’s Mansion was also a very clean place. It was too good for her.
Fang Jun Ping was afraid that they would kill her, so she felt a little safer by squatting in a corner.

Not long after, there was the sound of rattling chains coming from outside. The door to the woodshed opened again. This time, it was opened all the way and two people walked in.
The two people had their backs to the light and the dazzling light made it hard for her to see their faces clearly. Only when they came in front of her did she see their faces, and Fang Jun Ping’s face instantly turned pale.
“An… An Zi Ran?”
“Long time no see, Second Concubine.”
An Zi Ran looked at her calmly, but there was a hint of indifference in his eyes that frightened Fang Jun Ping. It had been almost a year since they fled the An family with the stolen money.
Fang Jun Ping obviously also remembered what she and her daughter did when they left the An family house, and her face turned a little pale.
An Zi Ran said, “It seems that Second Concubine has also recalled what happened. Then I don’t need to remind you.”
Fang Jun Ping knew that he was talking about the money they had stolen. Her lips immediately trembled, and she argued, “That’s what Qiao E deserves. Since you refused to give it, we could only take it back ourselves. Don’t think that I don’t know, when the lord* was still alive he left a dowry for Qiao E.”
[*T/N: She calls her dead husband 老爷 lao ye, which is a respectful way to say “lord” or “master.”]
“You want to get a dowry before getting marry? Do you think that’s possible?” An Zi Ran said sarcastically.
“Who said Qiao E hasn’t gotten married yet? She has already…” Fang Jun Ping suddenly realized that she had said something that she shouldn’t have said, and she quickly covered her mouth.

An Zi Ran’s lips curled up, “You mean, An Qiao E is already married?”
Fan Jun Ping’s eyes flickered. Her thoughts were waging war inside her head. She knew that she couldn’t say that her daughter was Imperial Concubine Yan now. They especially could not let An Zi Ran know about that. But if she didn’t, he would definitely hold her and her daughter responsible for stealing those things.
“Qiao E… is indeed married, but she is pregnant now and it it not convenient for her to come see you.”
“It doesn’t matter, it’s the same if I go see her.”
“No!” Fang Jun Ping refused without thinking.
“Why?”
“Because… because…”
An Zi Ran smiled lightly, “If you don’t say it, why don’t I say it for you, it’s because your daughter is the emperor’s favorite concubine, right?”
Fang Jun Ping’s eyes widened in shock, “H- how do you know?”
“You said it yourself.”
Fan Jun Ping then remembered what she had said before. When she first woke up here, she was panicked and was afraid that they would kill her, so she wanted to use her daughter’s identity to suppress her kidnappers. She then regretted it. But thinking of this, she instead felt emboldened.

“Since you already know, I won’t hide it from you. Yes, my daughter is indeed the emperor’s favorite concubine, Imperial Concubine Yan. I said she’s pregnant. That’s also true. So you people better let me go, otherwise if my daughter finds out that I disappeared, things will not end well for you.”
Fang Jun Ping was no longer panicked. One could even say that she was extremely proud of herself.
This was the scene that she has fantasized about for many years, and now it has finally come true. Thinking about it, she felt that it was not a bad thing for them to know. She could use her daughter’s identity to suppress them. In any case, An Zi Ran was just a businessman. How big of a wave could a businessman make?
Fan Jun Ping did not consider if An Zi Ran and Fu Wu Tian were just ordinary businessmen, then how did they track her down?
The corner of An Zi Ran’s lips curved up slightly in rare ridicule.
“Second Concubine, do you know where this place is?”
Fan Jun Ping did not hear the ridicule in his voice. She only thought about it now that he mentioned it. She recalled what she saw through the crack of the door when she just woke up here. Every carved railing and jade stone seemed to carry an imposing quality. Although she only caught a glimpse, she still knew that this place was not an ordinary house. But no matter how grand the house was, surely it could never be grander than the imperial palace.
