Transmigrated into a useless female in interstellar space, she won big by picking up an SSS-level be

Hailanxing is facing its largest-ever investigation.

The Crown Prince, who was in charge of the review, acted swiftly and decisively, and overnight, the businesses of several first-class nobles were forcibly shut down.

The atmosphere in the main hall of the palace was solemn.

Jiang Xue stood below and glanced up at the sky.

In the main seat, the Crown Prince, with an indifferent expression, was flipping through the documents in his hands.

Beside him, the Third Princess casually nestled in a chair, nibbling on a delicate cake, looking on with amusement.

Jiang Xue gritted her teeth.

Is Jiang Ting mentally ill?

Why are you here to investigate this useless woman?

Jiang Zhixia noticed her gaze, puffed out her cheeks, and defiantly raised her chin at her.

What are you looking at? I'm coming for you!

Jiang Xue took a deep breath and suppressed the anger rising in her throat.

"Smack."

A document was slammed onto the table. Jiang Ting looked up and his scrutinizing gaze fell on her.

"These nobles have been stealing the empire's resources for years, and you, as the lord, were completely unaware?"

Jiang Xue's heart skipped a beat, and a guilty yet helpless smile appeared on her face: "Your Highness, it is my fault for mismanagement. I am willing to fully cooperate with the investigation and will not cover up for anyone."

She spoke so sincerely, as if she knew nothing about it.

But the impartial and incorruptible Crown Prince wouldn't listen to her and made a decision directly.

"Since Lord Jiang Xue is incapable of governing, then let her be suspended from her duties starting today."

Jiang Xue's smile froze for a moment.

Is this some kind of ruthless punishment?! Immediate suspension?!

She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but when she met those cold eyes, all the words stuck in her throat.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhixia immediately put down the cake and nodded vigorously in agreement.

"Exactly! You've had resources stolen right under your nose for so many years, what kind of lord are you? Quit! Quit!"

She waved her hand as she spoke, looking disgusted.

The prince beside her remained unmoved and did not reprimand her for interrupting.

Jiang Xue was so angry that her vision blurred.

That useless woman!

She gritted her teeth and forced a smile: "Yes, Your Highness. What else do you need me to do? I will do my best to cooperate."

Jiang Ting didn't even glance at her, and gestured for her to leave.

Jiang Xue took a deep breath, maintained her submissive demeanor, and turned to leave.

Jiang Zhixia watched the plump figure disappear through the door, then immediately turned around and clapped enthusiastically for her older brother.

"Big brother, you're so handsome!"

This is absolutely true; a man who is serious is the most handsome!

Her eyes shone brightly, the word "admiration" clearly written on her left and right.

Jiang Ting turned his head and glanced at her indifferently.

The female's overly solicitous manner... doesn't seem quite right.

He didn't know why Jiang Zhixia insisted on coming along; it seemed like she was just there to have fun.

He certainly liked being cuddled by females, but it was obvious that Jiang Zhixia's goal wasn't him.

He lowered his eyes and continued flipping through the files, calmly instructing, "A group of nobles will be coming to be questioned in a little while, so don't wander off."

Jiang Zhixia nodded obediently.

"I know, I know, don't worry, big brother, I definitely won't run around!"

She picked up the cake and continued eating, her mind racing with calculations.

The eldest brother has already traced the crime back to the noble family, and it won't be long before he uncovers Jiang Xue's criminal record.

However, these nobles and Jiang Xue's interests were intertwined, and they had long been united as one, making it not so easy to convict them.

She had to get rid of Jiang Xue from the royal family before Jiang Xue was investigated.

Jiang Xue walked into her room, and as soon as she closed the door, the fake smile on her face completely crumbled.

"Bang--!"

She kicked over the table next to her, and the exquisite ornaments on it shattered all over the floor.

Jiang Zhixia was deliberately trying to make a fool of herself!

That good-for-nothing! Relying on her status as a princess, she has humiliated her time and time again, and now she has even followed her here to see her make a fool of herself!

Jiang Xue gasped for breath, staring at the mess on the ground, her eyes gradually turning sinister.

However, Jiang Zhixia's smugness wouldn't last long.

Making such a big fuss over a sinner, still that foolish infatuation.

Jiang Ting wants to convict him, but it won't be that easy.

She took a deep breath, calmed herself down, raised her hand to open her personal terminal, and sent a message.

Have you taken everything?

The other party quickly replied: [Here you go. Is this usable? Your Highness is an SS-rank...]

Jiang Xue replied impatiently: "Absolutely no problem. It's a newly developed drug by the Federation. If you're hesitant, I'll find someone else."

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end, as if they were hesitating.

Jiang Xue sneered and added, "Think about it, if your daughter succeeds, wouldn't she be climbing into the royal family? Besides, the Crown Prince is a general; don't you know how much power he wields?"

This time, the other party replied very quickly.

"Thank you very much, Lord."

Jiang Xue shut down her personal terminal, a smug smile curving her lips.

So what if he's the Crown Prince? So what if he's a General?

After all, isn't Jiang Ting also a male?

Which male doesn't live off females?

Once a contract is formed, the higher the rank of the male, the less likely he is to disobey the female's commands.

Once she has Jiang Ting under her control, why would she need to worry about being convicted?

As for Jiang Zhixia... they are just siblings.

Would Jiang Ting really defy his mistress's orders for the sake of his sister?

The thought of Jiang Ting having the power she could use at will instantly made Jiang Xue feel much better.

Just then, a servant's voice came from outside the door.

"My lord, His Highness has begun summoning the nobles for questioning."

Jiang Xue smiled slightly.

The plan has begun; it must succeed!

……

In the main hall, Jiang Zhixia finished the last bite of cake and leaned close to her older brother, glancing at the files.

"Brother, how's the investigation going?"

Jiang Ting paused slightly as he flipped through the pages, turning his head to look at it.

The unique fragrance wafted over as she approached. The female was half-lying on his shoulder, her hair hanging down, and a smear of cream still clinging to her pale pink lips.

Seeing him staring at her without saying a word, Jiang Zhixia tilted her head and said, "I'm just looking, is that not allowed?"

Jiang Ting stared at her for a few seconds, then suddenly chuckled.

He raised his hand and gently wiped the cream from the corner of her mouth with his fingertips.

Jiang Zhixia: "..."

I feel like a child again.

Jiang Xue had just reached the door when she saw this scene.

She paused, her brows furrowing slightly.

The atmosphere between the Crown Prince and the Princess... something feels off.

She wanted to look again, but Jiang Ting had already withdrawn his hand and looked up at her.

Jiang Xue immediately adopted a respectful expression.

"Your Highness, all the nobles who need to be examined have arrived and are now waiting in the examination room."

Jiang Ting hummed in agreement, closed the file, and got up to leave.

Jiang Zhixia stood up, but a large hand pressed her head down and forced her back into the chair.

She looked up innocently: "Huh? Big brother? Can't I go?"

Jiang Ting lowered his eyes, casually pinched the female's small earlobe, and whispered, "Stay here, those nobles are troublesome."

Jiang Zhixia glanced at Jiang Xue behind him, said "Oh," and sat down obediently.

The eldest brother is going to conduct an investigation; isn't this the perfect opportunity to make a move?

Jiang Xue frowned even more as she watched this scene.

Aren't these two siblings a little too close?

But she didn't have time to think about it; the Crown Prince had already brushed past her and strode away.

Jiang Ting wasn't worried about what Jiang Xue would do to Jiang Zhixia.

The guards outside the door were all elite members of the royal guards, and Jiang Xue didn't have the guts to do so.

Jiang Zhixia watched her older brother's departing figure until he was far away before turning her gaze away.

Then she saw that Jiang Xue was about to leave, and immediately spoke up.

"Lord Jiang Xue, don't be in such a hurry to leave."

Jiang Xue paused and turned around.

Jiang Zhixia slumped in her chair, arrogantly raising her chin: "Have a chat with this princess, I'm so bored. Anyway, you don't need to go to the audit, weren't you suspended?"

Jiang Xue gritted her teeth.

That useless woman is just making fun of her on purpose!

But she couldn't lose her temper, so she could only respond with a forced smile: "What would the princess like to talk about?"

Jiang Zhixia pointed to the chair next to her: "Sit down and let's talk."

Jiang Xue took a deep breath, walked over and sat down.

Jiang Zhixia propped her head up with her hand and asked innocently, "Is Hailan Star much bigger than Aier Star?"

Jiang Xue was baffled.

What a stupid question! How can Aierxing compare to Hailanxing?

At most, Aier Star is just something the royal family dumped on this useless woman to play with, while Hailan Star is a major economic region!

"Of course, Hailan Star is rich in resources, so it is naturally larger than Aier Star."

"Aier Star is too small," Jiang Zhixia nodded with some regret, then looked at her seriously. "How about this, after you step down from your position as lord, I'll ask my father for the lordship of Hailan Star to play around with? What do you say?"

Jiang Xue's lips twitched.

What kind of beautiful dream is that useless woman having!

How could the royal family possibly entrust such an important place to a useless person like her!

She sneered, "Princess, you jest. I am innocent. His Highness will definitely investigate and reinstate me. Princess, you should look at other star regions instead."

Jiang Zhixia gasped dramatically, her tone full of surprise.

"You've already been suspended, how can you expect to be reinstated? Didn't you interfere with what those nobles were doing?"

She smiled slightly and dropped a bombshell.

"You probably don't know this, but I already found out what my brother is investigating. If I gave it to him, do you think you could still enjoy everything here? You'd be locked up for at least a few years, wouldn't you?"

Jiang Xue's pupils trembled, and she abruptly turned her head to look at Jiang Zhixia.

She already found out?!

Jiang Zhixia was satisfied with her reaction, smiled slightly, and continued outputting.

"How about this, why don't you beg me now, and maybe I'll take plead with your elder brother on your behalf?"

The angrier Jiang Xue became, the easier it was for her to strike.

The only way to kick Jiang Xue out of the royal family is to make her commit the most unforgivable crime—harming a royal princess.

Jiang Xue may not have the courage, but that doesn't matter.

Isn't she good at framing people? Anyone can do that.

Although this move was risky, she was prepared for the presence of so many guards at the gate.

Jiang Zhixia touched the short knife hidden in her sleeve, waiting for her to make her move.

However, Jiang Xue's reaction was unexpected.

She scoffed, "Princess, you're too naive. His Highness would never convict me!"
