Xie Yuantang asked Situ Yan to put her down, and slowly walked to Xie Zhaoqing, smiling brightly, with a look of "deep father-daughter love", and called sweetly: "Dad, I finally see you. Tangtang fainted yesterday and didn't see you, and I thought you didn't care about me anymore~"

Damn, can you say this in public?

Even if I don't care about you, I can't admit it in front of everyone!

Xie Zhaoqing's face was stiff, and he cursed Xie Yuantang in his heart, but he had to force a stiff smile on his face and said, "No, no... I was busy with my father's affairs and didn't have time to go."

"Yeah, Tangtang understands. Daddy must be chatting with Lord Lu, the Minister of Works, right?"

The Minister of Works next door: ???

What does it have to do with him?

When Lu Zishan, who was sitting next to Situ Feng, heard this, her fingers trembled and she knocked over the teacup.

How could Xie Yuantang, at such a young age, be so vindictive?

Everyone was curious about the relationship between him and the Lu family, the Minister of Works, but Xie Yuantang stopped talking, turned around and walked to their seats with Situ Yan and sat down.

When passing by Lu Zishan, he greeted her warmly: "Hello, Sister Zishan."

Lu Zishan: “…” Oh no, please stop cueing me!

Everyone's suspicious eyes moved back and forth between Xie Zhaoqing and the Lu family. Those who were more thoughtful began to wonder, could it be that the Minister of Works had defected to Xie Zhaoqing?

But isn’t he a member of the Sixth Prince’s party?

Situ Feng laughed sarcastically, "Xie Yuantang, everyone knows about your Xie family. No matter how much you pretend, it can't change the fact that you have been abandoned by the Xie family."

She spoke in a low voice and deliberately waited until Xie Yuantang came closer before speaking. This way, her voice was just loud enough for the people on the royal side to hear, but the outsiders on the other side could not hear it.

But she didn't expect Xie Yuantang was crazy!

Almost as soon as she finished speaking, Xie Yuantang turned around and shouted to Xie Zhaoqing: "Dad! The third princess said that you are going to give up on me, saying that the wedding was just a gift from the Xie family to fool the royal family. Is that true?"

Situ Feng: “…”

Although this is what I meant, is it necessary for you to translate it so clearly?

You are yelling so loudly, you want everyone to hear you, right?

Xie Zhaoqing: “…”

Even if that's what I mean, can I admit it or what?

How could I, the Prime Minister, fall to the point where I am controlled by a nine-year-old girl!

Although he hated her in his heart, Xie Zhaoqing still gritted his teeth and said, "Princess, it was just a joke. The Xie family is loyal to our emperor. It is the Xie family's wish that Yuan Tang and His Highness the Fifth Prince can live in harmony with each other."

Xie Yuantang took advantage of the situation and said with a smile: "Third sister heard it. If you and sister Zishan bully me again in the future, my father will not let it go. The Xie family is not a decoration!"

Lu Zishan: “…” Please, don’t take me with you!

The Minister of Works took a deep breath. How could it be related to his Lu family's business?

Situ Feng was so embarrassed that her face turned black. She said with a fake smile, "I never said that. You heard it wrong."

Xie Yuantang blinked and said crisply: "Third sister, don't bully my younger sister-in-law. I can understand good and bad words. That's clearly what you meant just now!"

With just one word "sister-in-law", Situ Feng was successfully defeated again!

Situ Feng was so angry that she wanted to smash the cup on the spot!

Nine-year-old sister-in-law!

She never wanted to hear Xie Yuantang call herself her "sister-in-law" again in her life. It was more insulting to her than slapping her in the face!

After giving Situ Feng a quick lesson, Xie Yuantang returned to her and Situ Yan's seats contentedly.

After her "recognizing her father" and "fighting" with Situ Feng.

Those who were originally eager to bully her and Situ Yan all stopped talking.

Everyone looked at each other and exchanged glances in private.

Previously, they all thought that the nine-year-old princess was able to gain the emperor's favor simply because of luck.

Now it seems that it is not entirely true. With such a sharp tongue, I am afraid that even a few more Si Tu Fengs would not be able to defeat her in an argument.

No wonder the Fifth Prince, who has always been weak, dared to come to the hunting ground. Bringing such a little imperial concubine with him is like bringing an invincible little bully!

Moreover, he has a father who is the Prime Minister, and an uncle who is a Grand Tutor!

How is this played?

If he wins, he will be fighting against two top civil servants. If he loses, he will be told that he deserves it!

Xie Yuantang didn't care what they thought. He sat down calmly and started to recognize people.

Good, recognize people!

Speaking of which, this was the first time she had formally met the relatives of the Situ family after she "married" Situ Yan.

"I'm afraid Fifth Brother's wife doesn't know Second Brother yet? Fifth Brother, this is your fault."

"That's right, Fifth Brother, please introduce all the brothers and sisters to each other."

Situ Ye started the conversation hurriedly, and Situ Xu followed closely.

Both of them sat calmly on the chairs, waving their folding fans, looking like they were enjoying the fun!

After all, one of them even lost his black horse, and the other gave up his warm jade, wasn't it all just for the sake of watching this good show today?

Situ Yan hesitated for a moment and was about to whisper to Xie Yuantang who were sitting opposite him, but Xie Yuantang had already jumped off the chair and pulled him up.

"Who is the second brother?"

Situ Ye and Situ Xu wanted to watch the show, including other people's shows, and also wanted to watch Situ Yan and Xie Yuantang make a fool of themselves.

Unfortunately, they were wrong about one thing: Xie Yuantang was not stage-frightened at all!

Perhaps it should be said that she was looking forward to today's occasion just like them!

After all, there is so much money involved!

Xie Yuantang's big eyes were sparkling as he looked at his "relatives" sitting in a row.

If eyes could be materialized, one would be able to clearly see that her big eyes were filled with the word "silver bills"!

Situ Yan first took Xie Yuantang to the second prince Situ Ran and said, "This is my second brother."

Xie Yuantang had heard from Hongqiu and Bai Fu that the Second Prince Situ Ran was handsome and elegant, with a smile as bright as the spring sun and a summer moon, and a bearing as graceful as bamboo. Many people even privately said that he was more like a crown prince than Crown Prince Situ Lang.

Xie Yuantang looked at Situ Ran in front of him, and quickly labeled him a "smiling tiger" in his heart, then bent his knees slightly, bowed his head and said, "Yuantang sees the second emperor brother."

"Fifth brother and sister-in-law, there's no need to be so polite. We are all family, so why should we be polite?"

Situ Ran stood up with a smile, raised his hand and patted Situ Yan on the shoulder and said, "I heard that Fifth Brother was frightened yesterday, and that his sister-in-law might have been injured as well. I was really worried about you, but now that I see you ignore it, I feel much more relieved."

After a pause, he took out the red envelope he had prepared long ago and handed it over: "This is a small gift from me, brother, as a token of your gratitude..."

Before he could finish his words, Situ Ran saw Xie Yuantang pull out a small notebook and a charcoal pencil from her floral bag as if performing magic.

One little hand opened the little notebook, the other held the charcoal pencil, and the big eyes blinked, looking at him smartly:

"Wait a moment, Second Brother. I'll write it down. What did you say this was?"

Situ Ran: "...This is a small gift for you, and there is also a big gift as a gift."
