Chapter 116: After the Marquis's Estate Swapped Brides, the Heir Was Kept Under Her Thumb (27)

The Fifth Prince was unwilling to let such a golden opportunity slip through his fingers, but the matter was already a settled fact that no one could alter.

Once the imperial rewards arrived, Jiang Youyou immediately used her reputation as the Jade Physician Fairy to donate one hundred thousand taels of silver to the Jiangnan region. Her stated reason was that she had been moved by the Emperor’s benevolence and virtue, as well as his dedication to the hearts of the people, and she pledged to provide free medical care to the public from that day forward.

When news of this reached the palace, the Emperor was overjoyed. He began to view the Marquis's estate and Jiang Youyou with increasing favor and satisfaction. The Fifth Prince, on the other hand, was said to have suffered yet another setback.
