I want to be innocent, but they don't allow me

Li Mu awkwardly let go of Xiao'e's arm, listening to the little girl's incoherent roar, not knowing what to say.

It was Manager Liu who stepped forward tactfully, winked at the sorceress who was still in doubt, and then said to Li Mu in a flattering manner:

"Xiao'e is ignorant, the prince is teaching her a lesson!"

. . . .

At this time, the exquisite water pavilion.

A group of maids and guards gathered outside the side hall, but none of them dared to go in.

"Why are they fighting again? They've been fighting for a whole day."

"No way, our son is so outstanding."

"Little hoof, why are you so infatuated? Do you want to fly up to the tree and become a phoenix?"

"Why? Don't you want to?"

Several maids heard the noise of fighting in the house. They seemed to be used to it and were in the mood to chat.

"What happened?"

At this time, Su Yuwei, wearing a veil, walked towards this side with a frown.

All the maids were silent as if they were mice of fear, for they all knew that this girl, who wore a veil all day, called Li Mu "husband".

Now that the queen has arrived, I think there will be some fun to watch!

"Ma'am, those two are fighting in there again."

A pretty little maid, who looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, trotted up to Su Yuwei and knelt down to speak.

The little maid looked very smart, which could be seen from the way she addressed Su Yuwei.

When Su Yuwei heard the title of "Madam", her cheeks turned slightly red. Fortunately, she wore a veil all the time except in front of Li Mu.

However, before she could ask, his cold eyes suddenly looked behind the little maid.

While frowning, he raised his right hand and shot out a moon-white sword energy, which brushed the little maid's ear and struck back.

At the same time, a light blue sword energy pierced through the door and shot towards Su Yuwei.

But at the moment when the two sword energies were about to collide, the light blue sword energy deviated slightly, brushing against the sword energy shot by Su Yuwei, and passed by the side of her face.

Seeing this, Su Yuwei's originally sharp eyes gradually subsided, but her hands, which had not been put down for a long time, could not hide the shock in her heart.

"what!"

The little maid who was talking to Su Yuwei seemed to have just reacted. She screamed, hugged her head and curled up on the ground.

Someone in the crowd complained, "You know how to yell now."

The words have not yet fallen.

With a creaking sound, the half-open door slowly opened.

Tang Qin strode out of the house and came straight to Su Yuwei's side. The maids and boys beside her unconsciously took a few steps back.

"I'm sorry, I just lost my grip, are you hurt?"

Tang Qin looked at Su Yuwei calmly. Although her tone was gentle, it seemed more like a test.

Su Yuwei shook her head slightly and said only two words: "No problem."

She was also looking at Tang Qin. The two veiled women looked at each other in silence.

At this moment, a charming and lazy voice broke the silence:

"Little girl, we meet again! Is that boy coming back or not? He is probably going out to mess around with other girls, and you don't care!"

Before she finished her words, the veil on Su Yuwei's face slipped off, revealing a scar as thick as an index finger on her delicate cheek.

By the time Su Yuwei reacted, it was too late.

The veil slowly fell to the ground, accompanied by whispers from the crowd.

"This girl is indeed very beautiful. No wonder His Royal Highness loves her so much."

"But with such a long scar, the prince can't just look at the girl's profile."

"How can you be the Crown Prince's Consort like this? If you were to meet the Emperor, wouldn't that be disrespectful in front of the palace?"

"Keep your voice down, do you want to die?"

"Am I wrong? There are so many boudoir ladies in the capital.. Woohoo~ Why are you covering my mouth?"

"If you want to die, don't take me with you!"

At this time, Qiu Ju was just outside the courtyard. She shooed away the guards who wanted to rush in to check the situation, then hurried back and glared at the maid who had just gossiped.

Su Yuwei did not wear a veil when she was with Li Mu in the inner courtyard, so she had naturally seen the scar.

He trotted over to Su Yuwei, picked up the gauze on the ground, carefully brushed off the dust, and wanted to put it on for Su Yuwei.

"Sister Su, this is my fault. After I punish those servants who gossiped about me, I will come to you to receive my punishment."

Su Yuwei gently shook her head, stopped her action, looked at Ge Peining and saluted:

"It's Sister Ge. I wonder where you are?"

Qiuju looked at the veil in her hand, shrank her neck slightly, and stepped aside.

She did not tell Su Yuwei that Ge Peining and Tang Qin came to see Li Mu, but waited at the door of Linglong Waterside, waiting for Li Mu to come back.

It was only after she heard the report from other maids and learned that Su Yuwei had come here that she hurriedly ran over here.

Ge Peining did not answer Su Yuwei's question, but looked at the scar on Su Yuwei's face.

He moved his feet, and the next moment he appeared in front of Su Yuwei, reaching out to touch her cheek.

Su Yuwei knew that Ge Peining was a doctor, so she didn't dodge.

But Ge Peining's hand did not really touch her. It just stayed above the scar for a moment, then she withdrew her hand and said with a sweet smile:

"So this ice cream was obtained for you. You are indeed a pitiful person. It's a pity that you have this scar."

Then he hooked his finger at Su Yuwei, turned around and walked into the house:

"Come in with me, you lazy bastard are safe now."

Su Yuwei's heels just left the ground, hesitated for a moment, and then fell down again, staying where she was without moving.

"Why, are you afraid that I will poison you?"

Seeing this, Qiu Ju hurriedly whispered:

"Sister Su, why don't you go and calm them down first to avoid any more trouble."

Su Yuwei hesitated for a moment, then finally followed him into the house.

Qiu Ju let out a long breath, then shouted at the crowd:

"Nothing to do?"

Hearing this, the servants left tactfully.

"Wait! You guys, come with me!"

The servants who had been gossiping just breathed a sigh of relief when they heard Qiuju's voice coming from behind them and all looked bitter.

But there was not much fear in my heart.

After all, they are all servants, and they were personally appointed by His Majesty and sent to Linglong Waterside Pavilion. I think Qiuju can only say a few words to them verbally, and can't really do anything to them.

In the house on the other side.

Ge Peining handed the ice cream in her hand to Tang Qin and said with a sweet smile:

"I'll trouble Sister Tang to apply medicine for this girl."

Tang Qin frowned:

"If you want to be a good person, why don't you do it yourself?"

"You almost hurt someone just now, don't you have to apologize?"

Ge Peining said this and blinked at Tang Qin.

"You still say you don't want an old cow to eat young grass."

Tang Qin chuckled, but did not refuse. She gently opened the jade bottle and walked in front of Su Yuwei.

Su Yuwei frowned, but stopped Tang Qin's action, looked at Ge Peining and said:

"Yuwei thanks Sister Ge, but this ice cream must be very precious. How much is Sister Su's consultation fee?"

Ge Peining was slightly stunned when she heard this, and smiled while covering her mouth:

"Little girl, this concerns your appearance, but you ask about the consultation fee first?"

Then he waved his hand and said:

"That guy has plenty of money. Moreover, the entire northern land will belong to him in the future. He will definitely pay for my consultation."

"Please speak clearly, senior!"

Su Yuwei was still stubborn and even changed her address to "senior".

"Yu Wei? You have to think it over carefully. This old woman has set her eyes on your son. I still have some ice cream, which is just enough to heal the scar on your face."

Unexpectedly, Tang Qin spoke with a soft voice and gentle tone, as if she was a completely different person from before.
