The imperial concubine is nine and a half years old, and she is willing to overturn the table and re

"how?"

study.

Situ Ye looked at Yu Long who came in and asked in a deep voice.

Yu Long hesitated and said, "They... seem to have noticed something, but they can't be sure."

After a pause, he told him about the martial arts competition with Yan Feng and the words that Xie Yuantang had tried to trick him into saying.

"Fourth Prince, I think they wouldn't dare to do anything even if they knew. Going against us is like an ant against an elephant. They wouldn't be so stupid as to seek death, right?"

Situ Ye had a gloomy face, his fingers kept tapping on the table, and he snorted coldly when he heard it: "Ants versus elephants? Don't forget another saying, a thousand-mile dam is destroyed by an ant hole."

"Ever since Xie Yuantang became the little imperial concubine, haven't Fifth Brother brought us enough surprises?"

Situ Ye glanced at Yu Long and sneered, "You haven't been a bodyguard long enough, don't you think it's embarrassing?"

Yu Long: “…”

He muttered in frustration: "Just talk, why are you making personal attacks?"

"Humph."

Situ Ye snorted coldly and said sarcastically:

"Why, only the fifth brother's wife can attack you, but I can't?"

Yu Long: “…” Not only is it sarcastic, but it’s also sour!

He looked at Situ Ye, who looked particularly strange, as if possessed by some dirty thing, and couldn't help but ask, "Your Highness, have you read too many romance novels recently?"

Situ Ye: "..."

The fourth prince's expression changed immediately and he kicked him: "Are you looking for death?"

Yu Long dodged while covering his calf, and said with a simple smile: "It's much more normal now!"

Situ Ye snorted coldly and warned with gritted teeth: "Also, don't tell others that I read romance novels!"

"Yes, yes, I promise not to tell anyone!" Yu Long swore quickly.

Situ Ye looked at him awkwardly, and then he calmed down a little. He pointed to the opposite side and said, "Please sit down. You have worked hard today."

The two grew up together. They were cousins, but in fact they were closer than brothers. Yu Long didn't bother to be polite with him. He sat there and asked in confusion, "Your Highness, are you in a bad mood?"

Otherwise you can't be so sarcastic.

Situ Ye drank his tea irritably: "How can I be in a good mood knowing that my mother did that?"

Although Concubine Yu tried her best to conceal it, Situ Ye had his own methods. In addition, Concubine Yu used people from the Yu family, so it was easier to investigate.

When Situ Ye learned that she had sent people to assassinate Situ Ye and Xie Yuantang, he was puzzled at first, but then immediately sent Yu Long to test her.

"I have never thought of letting my fifth brother die, but...if he blocks my way, I will have no choice but to strike first."

Situ Ye was in a complicated mood. To be fair, he had never regarded Situ Yan, a fool, as his opponent. But since his mother did such a thing, he had no other choice but to take action.

Yu Long remained silent.

Others may not know, but he knows that although Situ Ye appears to be arrogant and domineering on a daily basis, he is actually a very thoughtful person in private, otherwise he would not love to read romance novels behind people's backs.

Bullying Situ Yan on a normal day is one thing, but to actually kill a fool... even if you succeed, it feels like a despicable act of bullying the weak.

"Then...what does Your Highness plan to do next?" Yu Long asked.

Situ Ye hesitated for a moment and said, "Tomorrow, I will go to meet them in person."

He had to determine the attitudes of Xie Yuantang and Situ Yan before deciding on the next course of action.

But he didn't expect that his mother, Concubine Yu, had the same idea as him.

-

Xie Yuantang didn't know about these things.

She handed the four iron tokens to Yan Guanqing after Xie Yuantang did not ask any more questions, but even if she did not know, she could guess some of her opponent's reactions.

The next day, Xie Yuantang and Situ Yan went to school together.

Not surprisingly, Situ Xu and Situ Feng were not there.

Ever since they were taught a lesson by Xie Yuantang on the first day, the brother and sister tacitly avoided showing up whenever Xie Yuantang came to school.

Xie Yuantang no longer had to go to Huikun Palace to learn the rules. He attended classes peacefully for a rare day, during which he only had some "friendly exchanges" with Sun Fengbi and others.

But she didn't expect that even though Queen Jiang didn't come to cause trouble for her, there were still people who wanted to see her.

Xie Yuantang looked at the eunuch standing at the entrance of the school, tilted his head and said, "Concubine Yu wants to see me?"

"Yes, the Imperial Concubine has wanted to see you for a long time. When she heard that you were back, she quickly asked me to come and invite you."

"Only me? Where's my husband?"

"This……"

The eunuch hesitated and said, "The Imperial Concubine said that Miss Yu is also here, so it might be inconvenient for the Fifth Prince to go down."

Xie Yuantang sneered. Inconvenient? Yu Long went to the palace all day long, why didn't she say it was inconvenient?

But it just so happened that she also wanted to meet Concubine Yu and see how capable she was.

Xie Yuantang rolled his eyes slightly, looked up at Situ Yan and said, "My husband, I'm going to play with the imperial concubine for a while. Do you want to go home first, or wait for me?"

"Wait for my lady." Situ Yan said without hesitation.

"But you can't just sit there and wait for me, can you?"

Xie Yuantang thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you go play with your father for a while, and then we can go together."

Eunuch: “…” If the emperor knew about this, how could Concubine Yu do anything?

Situ Yan: "..." Is there any difference between meeting the emperor and going to the examination room? He is waiting for someone, not just waiting for trouble.

The two of them didn't say anything, just looked at Xie Yuantang with resentment.

She knows how to silence two people at the same time with just one sentence!

After a while, Situ Yanxiu shook his tail and muttered softly: "Can I not go to see my father? I am not familiar with him, I have nothing to say..."

"He's your father, you have to get to know him well!"

Xie Yuantang poked his waist with his finger: "Who are you familiar with? Apart from those in the mansion, can you name anyone else?"

Situ Yan raised his hand and said to someone passing by: "I am familiar with Sun Fengbi!"

Sun Fengbi: “…” No, let me go!

Xie Yuantang rudely slapped him on the back of his hand: "Don't be so useless."

How can being familiar with him mean you have no future?

Sun Fengbi's face turned red, and he said angrily: "That's enough, you two. I'm not deaf!"

Xie Yuantang chuckled: "Then I'd like to trouble classmate Sun to accompany my husband to meet the saint!"

Sun Fengbi: "...Forget it, just treat me as if I'm deaf."

Face to face?

What’s the difference between that and asking for his life!

Xie Yuantang smiled brightly, but raised his fist: "Student Sun, what are you talking about? Why didn't I hear you clearly?"

Sun Fengbi instinctively took two steps back and raised his hands in surrender: "I'll go, why can't I go?"

If he goes to see the emperor, his life will be in danger later, but if he doesn't agree now, he will die immediately!

Xie Yuantang then nodded with satisfaction, gave Situ Yan a few more instructions, and then left with the eunuch.

Looking at her back as she jumped away, Sun Fengbi stomped his feet in anger.

"Crazy! Too crazy!"

He turned his head and glared at Situ Yan with a look of disappointment: "Fifth Prince, you are a prince after all, and her husband, can't you control her?"
