Chapter 159.1 – In Love With
“Where is this place?” Fan Jun Ping asked.
An Zi Ran did not answer her immediately. Instead, he looked at Fu Wu Tian beside him, “Wangye, why don’t you tell her.”
Fu Wu Tian, who was named, smiled lightly. He looked at An Zi Ran indulgently and dotingly, and said with a smile in his eyes, “Wangfei, you are so naughty.”
Fang Jun Ping was gobsmacked when she heard how they were addressing each other.
Wangye, wangfei?
Wasn’t this Fu Wu Tian a businessman?
“Second Concubine Fang, the name of the land you are standing on now is Prince Fu’s Mansion. The one and only Prince Fu’s Mansion in Jun Zi City.” Fu Wu Tian obeyed wangfei’s wishes and told her the truth.
Fu Wu Tian’s voice was sonorous and powerful. Each word he spoke was like a hammer striking at Fang Jun Ping’s heart.
She stared at them with wide eyes.
She has been in Jun Zi City for more than half a year. Although she has been living in the South District all this time, how could she not have heard of Prince Fu’s Mansion? When the man who was guarding her allowed her to go out on the streets, she would occasionally hear some people talking about Prince Fu’s Mansion.

But she never knew that the master of Prince Fu’s Mansion’s, Fu Wu Tian’s, wangfei was An Zi Ran. When people spoke of An Zi Ran, they could not directly call him by name. Usually, they would call him junwangfei or junwang’s wangfei. And she was unable to inquire more as the person guarding her wouldn’t let her approach strangers, so she never knew that An Zi Ran was the junwangfei.
As for Fu Wu Tian, she and her daughter did not know his true name, and the An family’s servants just called him the son-in-law.
Fang Jun Ping suddenly returned to her senses. She glared at An Zi Ran angrily and shouted loudly, “How can you be the wangfei of Prince Fu’s Mansion?”
“Why can’t I be?” An Zi Ran asked calmly.
Fang Jun Ping’s eyes were red. If she had known that Fu Wu Tian was a wangye, she would have definitely made her daughter seduce him. Even if she couldn’t become the wangfei, being a cefei* was still superior to normal people. Then she and her daughter wouldn’t have to suffer so much.

After the mother and daughter pair left the An family, life was not as beautiful as they had imagined.
The gap between reality and delusion was huge.
Upon leaving the An family, they made their way to Feng City. They were afraid of bumping into An Zi Ran in Jun Zi City, so they decided to go to Feng City for the time being. However, the two of them were women, they were more delicate and could not endure hardship, so they took breaks often. What should’ve been a one day journey was delayed indefinitely, and it eventually took them two days to reach Feng City.

The two of them checked into a restaurant* that day, and then went out to look for a house the next day. They felt that having a family status would make them more respectable and thus make An Qiao E more appealing to others. However, because they spent money lavishly, they were targeted by people with evil intentions.
[*T/N: According to Chinese dramas that I watch, some restaurants in ancient China had rooms for rent on the second floor.]
They set a trap by pretending to need money in a hurry and were willing to sell a courtyard at a cheap price. The mother and daughter pair thought that they had found a great deal, so they bought it without much thought. But in actuality, that courtyard belonged to someone else. The owners simply have not moved in yet.

In order to buy that house the two spent half of their savings.
As a result, on the third day after they moved in, the real owner of the house came.
After discovering that their house was occupied, the owner of the house and his family wanted to kick them out. Of course, Fang Jun Ping and her daughter refused. They immediately transformed into shrews and started a dispute with the other part. They claimed that they had purchased the house and even brought out the house deed that the swindlers gave them. In actuality, that house deed was actually a forgery
The owner of the house noticed it was a fake and reported it to the local official right away.
