But Wei Lian only dared to curse in her heart and didn't dare to show it on her face.

She had put in a lot of effort to make Xie Zhaoqing forget about what happened that day and quietly released her and her daughter. If she angered him now, wouldn't all her efforts be wasted?

Thinking of the tricks she had pulled off that night, Wei Lian now felt pain in her waist, legs and mouth.

Wei Lian touched her mouth quietly and put on a worried expression: "But... Yumo and I are still under house arrest. If we show up now, wouldn't it be even more troublesome if His Majesty knew about it?"

"Your Majesty has so many things to do all day, how could he keep staring at my backyard?"

Xie Zhaoqing sat in the chair, enjoying the tea that Wei Lian fed to his mouth. He moistened his lips before continuing, "Besides, you went to apologize, which is even more excusable."

Wei Lian bit her lip and said hesitantly, "But...if she doesn't forgive us, I'm not afraid of losing face, but Yumo is still young. It would be too pitiful if she lost face in public."

Xie Zhaoqing snorted coldly: "Womanly kindness!"

"What's the point of saving face for a while? Are you happy that she has been under house arrest for three months? Things change rapidly in the capital. Who will remember that there is a Xie Yumo in the Xie Mansion after three months?"

When Wei Lian heard this, her eyes changed slightly, and she finally made up her mind and said, "Master is right, then I will take Yu Mo to the Fifth Prince's Mansion tomorrow."

Xie Zhaoqing tapped the table with his fingers: "Doesn't she want a dowry? Go find your mother and give her the dowry. I don't believe she would have the nerve to accept it in front of the people!"

"Master, your honor!"

Wei Lian flattered him promptly, and then fell down weakly and sat in Xie Zhaoqing's arms.

But she had forgotten how light she was when she was young, and Xie Zhaoqing had been very weak for a long time. When she sat down, Xie Zhaoqing sucked in a breath of cold air and almost threw her out!

"Master~"

Wei Lian hugged his neck, her eyes fluttering, and said in a seductive voice: "Tonight, I will serve you well~"

It's just that her voice was poisoned by Xie Yuantang and became hoarse. Although it is much better now, when she speaks with a pinched voice, it still sounds like she is singing electronic music.

Xie Zhaoqing subconsciously thought of the earthworm she had eaten, then looked down at her smudged eyeliner and wrinkled mouth corners...

Suddenly he lost interest and pushed her away, saying, "I have something else to do tonight, so I won't go."

Wei Lian: “…”

-

Xie Yuantang had no idea about Xie Zhaoqing's plan.

But even if she knew, she probably wouldn't care.

The next day, Xie Yuantang stayed in bed until almost noon. As soon as he got up, he heard a noise in the yard, as if Situ Yan was losing his temper.

Xie Yuantang was curious. How annoying must the person be to make her silly husband lose his temper?

She asked Hongqiu, who said with a strange expression, "It's...someone from Xie's house."

"Ok?"

Xie Yuantang stopped yawning in the middle of his breath: "My beastly father is here?"

Hong Qi: "...No, it's Wei Lian and Xie Yumo."

"They came with your dowry and stood at the door early in the morning, crying and saying they wanted to see you and apologize to you. Many people were watching."

Xie Yuantang blinked his eyes: "Are they itching for trouble? Are they here to get beaten?"

Hong Qi was amused by her words and said with a suppressed laugh, "Your Highness got up early and knew they were outside the door. He was afraid that they would disturb your sleep, so he didn't let them in."

Xie Yuantang nodded when he heard this: "It really is worthy of my teaching!"

As she was talking, she walked out and saw Situ Yan in the yard, angrily scolding Yan Mo: "You are not allowed to hit people, and you are not allowed to shut them up. Why don't you allow anything?"

Yan Mo choked and thought to himself, Your Highness, you have never been so arrogant before!

He patiently advised, "Your Highness, they are here to cause trouble. There are so many onlookers outside. The more we attack them, the less we will have the upper hand. The people will not look at who is right, but only at who is more miserable. The miserable one is right."

Situ Yan: "Then let them quarrel like this?"

"This……"

Yan Mo didn't have a good solution for this matter and was at a loss as to what to do.

Xie Yuantang came over with a smile: "Of course I won't let them quarrel any longer, it would be unlucky!"

Hearing her voice, Situ Yan's eyes lit up and he strode over: "Madam, you're awake!"

Xie Yuantang took out the list that Leng Yunwan had given her from her small floral bag, and excitedly pulled Situ Yan's sleeve and said, "Come on, husband, let's go fight!"

Yan Mo: “…” No way, another fight?

Just as he was about to persuade her, he saw his master's peach blossom eyes sparkling with stars, and he had already rolled up his sleeves and said, "Fight, I like fighting!"

The two of them walked out like the wind. Yan Mo looked at Hong Qi who was following behind and asked, "You don't want to persuade me?"

Hong Qi blinked: "Why should I persuade you? I want to fight too!"

Yan Mo: “…” So he is the only one who doesn’t fit in in this family!

Outside the Prince’s Mansion.

Wei Lian cried until her mouth was dry.

She also didn't expect that Xie Yuantang would not open the door for her the entire morning, leaving her standing there, crying and apologizing.

Xie Yumo licked her tongue, her face red from the sun: "Auntie, I'm thirsty~"

Outside, she could only call her Aunt Wei Lian.

Wei Lian looked at the scar on her daughter's face with distress. She raised her hand to touch her little face and said softly but loudly, "Hold on a little longer. Wait until your sister opens the door for us. At least we can ask for a drink of water."

As soon as these words were spoken, some people among the people immediately became uncomfortable.

"The little imperial concubine and the fifth prince are going too far, aren't they? Even if you don't forgive them, at least let them in. Why are you just closing the door like this?"

"That's right, they didn't even give us water to drink. We are a family, it's too cruel."

Some people also hold opposing views:

"But the little princess didn't ask them to come. They came here on their own accord. If they are really thirsty, they can go back. Why do they have to stand here?"

"This is obviously moral kidnapping. I always use this trick when I beg for food. It's an old trick!"

Just as everyone was talking, the heavy door of the mansion slowly opened with a creak.

Xie Yuantang and Situ Yan walked out from inside.

Compared with the embarrassment of Wei Lian and Xie Yumo, Xie Yuantang and Situ Yan were like gods descending to earth. The older one was handsome and suave, while the younger one was lively and cute.

Some people in the crowd whose values ​​are determined by their appearance could not help but become obsessed with it:

"Wow~ Although, the Fifth Prince is so handsome! Such a great face should be standing at the door every day for us to see!"

"The little princess is so cute, look at the hair ball on her head, ahhh my hands are itchy, I want to rub her so much!"

The water army that Wei Lian had hired in advance and was hiding in the crowd heard these words and immediately screamed, "Don't go too far. So what if you are good-looking? Can you be so heartless? You are so vicious at such a young age. What will happen in the future!"

When Xie Yuantang heard this, he raised his eyebrows, glanced over, and said with a smile: "My husband praised us for our good looks!"

Situ Yan glanced at the man, nodded and said, "As he should, he is so ugly!"

Navy: “…”
