The emperor naturally also noticed Su Muyao's little action, but what he was thinking in his heart was, you feel your butt hurts from sitting on that stool, don't I feel the same?

Then I looked at Xiao Dezi who was standing beside me. He was really tactless.

After all, she has been with me for so many years, why doesn't she know how to serve this little ancestor well? It would also save me from losing face.

The emperor turned to ask Lord Li: "How do you think I should punish you?"

Lord Li kowtowed and said: "Your Majesty, it is true that I have disciplined you. If I am guilty, I hope Your Majesty will spare the lives of my family members for the sake of my years of hard work."

The Marquis beside him also cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Li has been very conscientious during his tenure and has never made any mistakes. Your Majesty should let him make amends for his crime and retrieve the other two crossbows."

The emperor nodded and said, "Since the Marquis has pleaded for you, considering that you haven't done anything wrong yet.

Just find the other two crossbows. You can avoid the death penalty, but you can't escape the punishment of life. You can be beaten with 20 sticks as a warning to others. Master Li, you are not satisfied with 30 sticks."

Lord Li kowtowed and thanked the emperor: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I am not dissatisfied with your kindness in not killing me."

The emperor waved his hand and Lord Li was dragged out.

When Su Muyao saw this, she realized that it was probably over. She jumped down from the chair, clapped her hands, turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait a minute, Yaoyao, this is a letter from Long Yuan to you."

As he said that, he took out an unopened letter from the table and handed it to Su Muyao.

The matter has come to an end here. After all, Su Muyao doesn’t care much about what happens next.

After returning home, he went to his room and opened the letter. He saw that the content of the letter was basically asking if he had forgotten him.

He also said that he would return to Beijing in a few months and asked me to remember to go to the city gate to welcome him.

After reading it, he curled his lips and said, "You even remembered to write a letter to yourself. You ate so much of my food but didn't even thank me. Humph, you are an ungrateful person."

At this time, Xiao Xia came in with a pot of hot tea: "Little Princess, who made you unhappy?"

"Who else could be an ungrateful person! He ate so much food from this princess but didn't mention a word in the letter, nor did he even say thank you to me."

Xiao Xia nodded. She knew that the little princess was probably talking about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but she couldn't just agree with him.

"By the way, the old lady asked you to come over."

Su Muyao blinked her eyes: "Did grandma say what it was?"

"It should be the second girl's business."

Su Muyao expressed her confusion. The second girl was of course Erya. Since arriving at the Princess's Mansion, the two girls have been helping in the workshop.

When she came back occasionally, the servants in the mansion would respectfully call her the eldest lady and the second lady.

This was also what Old Lady Su meant. At that time, Old Man Su and Old Lady Su felt that these two girls were related to their own little treasures by blood, and that they both had very good personalities.

Especially Daya, who is hardworking and capable, and always considers the people in the mansion in everything she does.

When Su Muyao came to Old Lady Su's room, she found Daya and Erya were there.

"Grandma"

"Hey, dear, come sit here. Grandma has something to tell you?"

Su Muyao nodded and said, "That's right. The eldest and second girls are not young anymore, and grandma wanted to find a good marriage for them some time ago.

Just now, the third son of Mr. Liu from West Street said that he has taken a fancy to our Erya, and he came with a matchmaker to propose marriage this morning. I didn’t dare to agree immediately, so I wanted to let them meet her.”

Su Muyao nodded and said, "I'll ask someone to find out what kind of character that son has."

Just as Su Muyao finished speaking, Erya, with a red face, suddenly said, "Grandma, I do."

After saying this, Erya lowered her head, and Su Muyao suddenly looked up at Erya.

He asked with a puzzled look on his face, "You are acquainted with the son of Mr. Liu."

Erya nodded: "I know him."

When Daya heard this, she was so angry that she slapped Erya and said, "What did I teach you? You have learned everything."

When Mrs. Su saw this, she quickly pulled Daya over and said, "Dad, please don't hit your sister!

I know him, but I still need to ask someone to find out more about his character."

Su Muyao also nodded her head. She just felt that this matter was a little strange. Logically speaking, it would be difficult for two girls who worked in the factory from dawn to dusk to get to know such a young master from a wealthy family.

After Su Muyao left, he called Lin Yu to find out what was going on.

Daya took Erya away, but she was very angry.

Along the way, she scolded Erya: "Didn't grandma say that when we are old enough, a suitable family will naturally find us a date. Why are you so anxious?"

Erya looked aggrieved: "Sister, you are my biological sister, why can't you think about me?

We are old enough to get married now, and it would not be good for us to stay in the mansion in our awkward positions.

Isn't it normal to marry the right person? And Sanlang has already promised me that he will make me his legal wife, not a concubine. I will have maids to serve me in the future."

Daya's hands trembled with anger when she heard this: "Do you really think I don't know? Ever since you flirted with the third young master of the Liu Mansion, he has been visiting you frequently.

I've heard from others that he has countless maids and concubines in his backyard.

Madam Liu wants him to find a woman with a clean family background who can help the Liu family and become the legal wife of Mr. Liu San. Don't you think that with their thinking, they are trying to use you to climb up to the Princess's Mansion?"

Erya shook her head and said, "No, it's not what you think. Sanlang told me that all the concubines in the mansion were forced by his mother to marry him and he doesn't love any of them.

Madam Liu wanted Sanlang to have children for the Liu family as soon as possible, so she gave those women to him.

Think about it! We are just ordinary girls, what can we bring to them? This shows that Sanlang really loves me, not because of the Princess Mansion. "

When Daya heard this, she became so angry that she stopped talking and went straight back to her room.

After lunch, the person Su Muyao sent to inquire also came back.

After hearing the situation, he shook his head and said, "Xiao Xia, go and call the second girl over to me."

Soon Xiao Xia brought Erya to Su Muyao's room.

I saw Su Muyao sitting on the stool with a sad look on her face.

"Princess, the second girl is here."

"Well, you go down first."

After Xiao Xia left, Su Muyao waved to Erya, "Come and sit down."

"Lin Yu told the second girl the news he had found out."

Erya looked at the guard standing beside her. She wanted to hear what Sanlang looked like in other people's eyes.

“The Liu family started out as a business family, but when it came to Mr. Liu’s business, it gradually declined.

Now Liu Yu is the only male in the Liu family, his two older sisters and two younger sisters are all married.”
