Born To Be My Luna

After recovering for several days, Jane Jin finally enjoyed a few peaceful days.

According to Cai Yue, the Uther family had been reprimanded, and the household was reorganized. The original cleaning maids from Pear Blossom Court were driven out, and the housekeeper purchased three maids from the slave market, bringing them to Pear Blossom Court.

The housekeeper made a gesture of respect and said coldly, "Miss, these three have been bought from outside and have not been taught the rules. It troubles Miss to instruct them on the manners of the house."

The housekeepers words were nothing more than a way to inform Jane that these three were not sent by the lady of the house.

Jane looked at the three of them. Two of the maids were indeed unfamiliar, but the girl in coarse cloth with a blue bundle on her back, she had seen in her previous life.

Her name was Shenshen, the daughter of the housekeepers brother, who entered the service after Janes marriage in her past life.

Without showing any change in expression, Jane sized up the three and asked, "What are your names?"

"I am called."

"I am called Shenshen."

"I am called Qingying."

The three stepped forward and bowed, "Greetings, Miss Jin!"

Jane looked at their faces and then pointed at Shenshen, "You!"

The housekeepers eyes flashed, thinking Jane did not want to keep her, and said, "Miss Jin, Shenshen has been personally inspected by the Duke."

Jane glanced at him indifferently, "Since my father has seen her, she shall attend to me inside from now on."

The housekeepers eyes showed a trace of complacency, but he turned to instruct Shenshen, "Since Miss Jin thinks highly of you, you must serve her well. If you serve well, both the Duke and the lady of the house will reward you."

Shenshen bowed her head and said, "Yes!"

The housekeeper nodded with satisfaction and left without a proper farewell to Jane.

Jane sat in her chair, watching the three of them coldly, "I have but one rule here: obey only me. Do what I tell you and do not meddle in things I do not command."

"Yes!" the three replied.

"Leave now, Cai Yue will tell you your duties later!" Jane waved her hand.

The three bowed and retreated.

Cai Yue closed the door and happily said, "Miss, the Duke cares about you."

Jane looked at Cai Yues excited face and smiled, "If he truly cared, Uther would have been punished more severely."

He is now moved, but it is far from familial love.

The resentment he holds for me is etched in his memory. In my past life, I knew that after my mothers difficult labor and death, I was sent to the village house by Sun Da to be raised. It was my mothers legacy, and he neglected it for years until someone in the court accused him of neglecting his own daughter, and only then did he bring me back at thirteen.

"By the way," Jane looked up at Cai Yue, "these past few days, find out if the commandant of the Southern Prison, Uncle Sam, is in the capital."

"Uncle Sam?" Cai Yue was startled, "Miss, why do you ask about Uncle Sam?"

The commandant of the Southern Prison, Simon Su, was handpicked by the Regent King of the Sky and established the Southern Prison, directly answering to the Regent King and the Empress Dowager. However, this Uncle Sam was known for his extreme cruelty, rumored to love skinning people alive, and few who entered the Southern Prison ever came out.

As for the deputy commandant, Jason Su, it was widely said that he had inherited all the cruelty from Uncle Sam and also enjoyed skinning people. Thus, despite being of marriageable age and a new favorite military official in the court, no noble lady was willing to marry him.

The Southern Prison is now essentially managed by Jason Su, while Uncle Sam is rarely in the capital, and even when he is, he seldom visits the Southern Prison.

"Just go and find out," Jane said.

"Yes, Miss!" Cai Yue replied.

A few days later, Janes injuries had healed significantly, and the three maids in the yard were practical and listened well to Cai Yue, even Shenshen, who behaved very respectfully.

It seemed that after the incident with Mother Zhang, Jane had truly established her position in the house.

On the fourth day of the fifth month, a significant event occurred in the capital.

Princess Peaces son, Crown Prince Shimmer, disappeared, suspected of being kidnapped.

Princess Peace, named Cherie, is the emperors sister, married to, the head of the Supervision Office, for sixteen years, and gave birth to this golden child only five years ago. With the disappearance of Crown Prince Shimmer, and Princess Peace were only concerned with finding their son, leaving all the affairs of the Supervision Office to Princess Su.

Princess Su was so busy that she didnt return home for two or three days.

Jane recalled that on the same day of the fifth month in her previous life, the body of Crown Prince Shimmer was found at the foot of Wolf Mountain, with thirty-eight cuts all over his body, blood and flesh indistinguishable. When Princess Peace saw the body of Crown Prince Shimmer, she went mad on the spot.

Thinking of her own child, killed by Li Jiaai as soon as he was born, Janes heart also ached.

Princess Peace and have been fighting corrupt officials for years, doing a lot for the people and the court. The reason why Princess Peace was late in getting pregnant was that she was once ambushed by corrupt officials, seriously injured, and took a long time to adjust her body before she conceived Crown Prince Shimmer.

The kidnappers of Crown Prince Shimmer were the bandits of Wolf Mountain, who were eliminated by Brandon Uther with his team. After strict interrogation, it was found that the bandits had been bribed by the deceased corrupt official Zhangxiantians son to abduct Crown Prince Shimmer as revenge against.

Brandon Uther thus also made a great contribution and went one step further.

Jane tried to recall this case. The body was found on the morning of the eighth day of the fifth month, and the forensic doctor said that Crown Prince Shimmer had been dead for less than three hours, which means that he was killed only on the seventh day of the fifth month.

The people were taken away by the bandits of Wolf Mountain, but where they were detained, Jane did not know.

Would they be detained in Wolf Mountain? Wolf Mountain has a steep terrain, easy to defend and difficult to attack, which is also the reason why the bandits of Wolf Mountain have been causing trouble for many years and the court has been unable to eliminate them. It is also the reason why Brandon Uther was rewarded by the emperor for eliminating the bandits and ennobled, because with the terrain of Wolf Mountain, to completely eliminate the bandits, it really requires wisdom and courage.

She is familiar with the terrain of Wolf Mountain. A year after the bandits were eliminated in her previous life, her good mother-in-law said that she wanted to build a small temple in the mountain to worship Buddha and protect Jiangning Marquisate, and specially sent her to survey the terrain.

In fact, it was to get rid of her and not let her stay in the house, because at that time Myra Uther was pregnant with her second child, and she was afraid that she would harm Myra Uthers child, so she deliberately sent her out.
