I'll tell you the secret and let's laugh together!

The Fourth Prince was not aware of how eager his eyes were, but Emperor Mu Wu, the person being stared at, noticed it, and the expressions on his sons' faces were very easy to guess.

The fourth brother asked for silver and gold all day long, and he was really scared.

Emperor Mu Wu glared at the Fourth Prince in pretended anger and took the initiative to shift his gaze.

The Fourth Prince couldn't see Emperor Mu Wu's expression at all and was still looking at him expectantly. The Second Prince gave him an elbow without changing his expression.

"Fourth brother, please restrain yourself. Can't you see that father's eyes are about to spit fire?"

The fourth prince answered very sincerely, saying seriously: "I didn't see it, second brother, I really didn't see it."

Now it was the second prince's turn to be speechless. He forgot that his eyesight was not very good.

"Now you know, take back your begging eyes, sit down and eat."

The fourth prince rubbed his hands together and looked at the second prince with eager eyes, "Second brother, I really have no money. How about you lend me some? Don't worry, I will pay you back as soon as I have money. Do you think this is okay?"

The Second Prince threatened without even raising his head:

"No, if you dare to speak again, I don't mind beating you up, and then paying you a few taels of silver as medicine money."

The fourth prince retracted his gaze and muttered softly:

"People say that married men are stingy, but I didn't expect you, my second brother, to be like that too. What can a few taels of silver do? It's not even enough for me to buy a set of materials."

The fifth prince on the side: ???

Fourth brother, isn’t your focus a bit strange? Is this the time to worry about the medical expenses?

System: [Hehe, little host, of course this is fine. Let's eat the next melon. Whose is better to eat? Ah, I've thought of it. Why not eat Duan Han's melon? ]

Duan Han, who was sitting on one side and chatting happily with Prince An next to him, suddenly stopped smiling.

No, didn’t we agree that good sisters won’t expose each other’s secrets?

Zhiyi, he paid it wrong, he paid it wrong!

Seeing the surprised expression on Duan Han's face, Prince An smiled and raised his eyebrows proudly at Duan Han.

[What else does Duan Han have to say? Is he trying to trick Prince An again? ]

The smile on Prince An’s face disappeared, and he looked at Duan Han expressionlessly. Duan Han waved his hands hurriedly and said, “He is not, he didn’t, don’t talk nonsense!”

[Haha, host, you know Duan Han well. He loves to cheat people the most. However, this time he cheated someone else instead of Prince An. The person being cheated this time is his brother-in-law Xiao Tiancheng.]

[Oh, I know he is the son of the Xiao family. I heard that he is very resourceful and very strict with his wife. He even controls when his wife goes to the toilet.]

Ning Zhiyi told the system what he knew.

Xiao Tiancheng, who was sitting next to his wife: ???

This person looks so strange, maybe he just has the same name as me?

He doesn't have such a high status anyway.

[Uh——] The system seemed to have lost all its strength and means, and it sighed a few times, not knowing how to continue.

[Host, you have to know that sometimes rumors are misleading. In fact, Xiao Tianfang is not the person that the rumors say he is. According to the rumors, he has a very high status in the mansion and is the most powerful person in the mansion.]

Ning Zhiyi ate chestnuts and said casually:

[That's because he is a man who even strictly controls his wife's toilet time. His status in the mansion must be very high!]

Xiao Tiancheng had a lot of grievances that he couldn't express. He was peeling chestnuts silently. He felt bitter in his heart, but he didn't say it!

He gritted his teeth and endured it.

Duan Qingyu lowered her head, and especially after noticing her mother-in-law's gaze, she didn't dare to look up.

[No, host, these rumors are just smokescreens. Xiao Tiancheng's status in the Xiao Mansion is not high at all. It can even be said that his status is pitifully low. Even the little Chow Chow dog raised by Duan Qingyu has a higher status than him.]

Originally, Xiao Tiancheng was still trying to find joy in the misery, thinking that if what was said was true about him, then that would be good too, at least it would prove to him that it was not the case, that the rumors were false, and that he was not a pervert who controlled his wife's toilet time.

But after hearing the following words, Xiao Tianfang was defeated. His status was even lower than that of a dog. This was too insulting!

Even if this is true, you can't say it out loud!

Like brine and tofu, there is always someone who can conquer something else, and Duan Qingyu was born to conquer Xiao Tiancheng, so he didn't need to think, and the words of comfort came out directly.

"How could that be, husband? Of course you are much more important than a dog. You are my husband, the head of our courtyard. Even I have to listen to you. Your status is the highest. How can you be inferior to a dog? This is absolutely impossible!"

"Ma'am, is it true?"

"Of course, when have I ever lied to you?"

Xiao Tiancheng thought about it and it made sense. His wife never lied to him. Since she said so, his status must be higher than that of a dog, much higher!

The aggrieved look on his face disappeared and was replaced by a smug expression. Old Madam Xiao felt a toothache when she saw this, so she simply looked away. Seeing this silly son too much was affecting her health!

Ning Zhiyi swallowed the chestnuts in his mouth, gulped down a few sips of water, and asked in confusion:

[No way, since Xiao Tiancheng's status in the mansion is not high, why would he release such news? This doesn't make sense.]

[Hahaha, host, if you insist on explaining it according to the rumors, then I can only say this. Xiao Tiancheng's status is indeed very high. He can decide many things, such as how long he should kneel as punishment.]

[You can decide whether to sleep in Duan Qingyu's bedroom or in the study at night. ]

[He can also decide how he will be punished, for example, if it is a sunny day, should he be slapped a few times, or should he be forced to kneel for a few hours.]

Ning Zhiyi: [Oh, he is really great, he can decide a lot of things, but what's the use of all these, they are all punishments, it seems that rumors are really not to be believed, Xiao Tiancheng has worked so hard over the years, he is obviously a rabbit, but he has to be disguised as a big bad wolf! ]

[Host, who said it wasn't true? He was wronged this time. Duan Han wanted to pick a nice rouge to give to his sweetheart, but he didn't know much about rouge, so he thought of trying it on his lips to see which color looked good before choosing.]

The system then continued:

[As a result, when he was trying on rouge, Xiao Tiancheng happened to come looking for him. Duan Han didn't expect someone to come suddenly, and in panic, he lost his balance and the rouge on his mouth accidentally rubbed onto Xiao Tiancheng's clothes. The most interesting thing is that the two of them didn't notice that Xiao Tiancheng returned home with the rouge stain on his clothes.]

[The rouge mark was discovered by the maidservant beside Duan Qingyu again, and then she immediately reported it to Duan Qingyu. Duan Qingyu mistakenly thought that Xiao Tiancheng was fooling around outside, and was investigating the evidence these days. Xiao Tiancheng was troubled a lot, and he hadn't slept well for three days. ]
