"Fifth brother's wife, what you said is too harsh."

In the silence of the crowd, Situ Qing, as the host, had to step out to smooth things over: "It's just a small matter, Fifth Brother is fine, why is Sister-in-law so angry?"

Situ Feng silently said to himself, "It's none of my business, it's none of my business," and took small steps back again.

Lu Zishan and Yu Qingqing retreated with her~

Situ Ya hesitated for two seconds and took two steps back.

When everyone saw that they had all retreated, they quickly followed suit...

At once, everyone moved back.

Situ Qing, who was originally standing closer to the front than everyone else, was now completely left in the front line!

Everyone’s thoughts: Just the two of you fight each other at the middle door, don’t bother with us!

Situ Qing: “…”

Xie Yuantang narrowed his eyes, raised his eyebrows, and said in a voice without any warmth:

"It's a small matter? Nothing?"

She took two steps forward, raised Situ Yan's hand that was injured by the explosion, and looked at Situ Qing with a cold face: "You call this okay?"

"Everyone says that my sister treats my husband very well. Now it seems that this is an exaggeration!"

She snorted coldly and kicked a palm-sized stone at her feet in front of Situ Qing.

"Come on, come on, Sister Huang, show me first!"

"Wait until your hand is injured like this before you tell me 'it's okay'!"

Situ Qing: “…”

Everyone: "..."

mad!

It's really crazy!

Not to mention in this princess's mansion, even in the entire Xuanzhao Kingdom, no one except the emperor dared to be so disrespectful to the eldest princess.

Xie Yuantang was just a nine-year-old girl, and a young wife who married into the royal family for the purpose of bringing good fortune. At best, she was only half a royal member.

But she dares!

And you can still maintain the upper hand throughout the whole process!

From aura to ruthlessness, she crushes the eldest princess Situ Qing!

Everyone looked at the usually arrogant Third Princess Situ Feng. Even she was intimidated by Xie Yuantang, so others were even less willing to speak up for Situ Qing.

Situ Qing was speechless and her wisdom teeth were almost broken, but she couldn't really get angry.

She could only maintain a decent smile and said, "Fifth sister-in-law is right. It is my fault as the eldest sister."

"Since you know you failed in your duty, you should pay more attention next time."

Xie Yuantang laughed sarcastically, "This time it happened to my husband, and he always respected the emperor sister so he didn't say much. If it happened to someone else, it might not be the same."

"If you can't even guarantee the safety of your guests, then next time the princess's mansion holds a banquet, no one will dare to come."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at them strangely.

They were not fools, so they naturally would not believe that the firecrackers were placed there accidentally, but... Situ Yan clearly walked to that place by chance.

If it weren't for the people in the princess's mansion who had been watching in secret and quietly placed the thing near Situ Yan, it would mean that this thing was used to deal with other people.

I just don't know which of these two possibilities it is...

Everyone looked at each other, and they couldn't help but feel a little wary of this beautiful and generous princess. They thought that they should think carefully before deciding whether to come to the next banquet at the princess's mansion.

So as to avoid hurting yourself and becoming a target for others.

Situ Qing tried several times to smooth things over, but Xie Yuantang refused to give her the face and forced the situation, which could have been eased, to become a stalemate.

The parties involved are silent, and those who are afraid of being implicated are even less likely to speak up.

Even Situ Feng, who loved to join in the fun, was speechless.

For a moment, the garden, which should have been bustling, was as quiet as a chicken.

Situ Yan was the only one in the audience who did not notice the undercurrent. He grabbed Xie Yuantang's hand as if nothing had happened and wrapped it with a handkerchief.

"Ma'am, does it hurt?"

"Next time you go out, I'll bring you a brick so that you don't hurt your hands when you hit someone... Well, you should bring two bricks so that if you smash one, you still have one!"

Everyone: "..."

Which good person would carry a brick with him when he goes out?

Stay away!

I'll definitely stay away from these two psychos from now on!

Just when Xie Yuantang pulled Situ Yan and turned to leave, and the others wanted to say goodbye, someone who could smooth things over finally showed up!

"Eh? Isn't this a lotus viewing party?"

"Or am I too late to attend the banquet?"

A gentle male voice sounded.

Xie Yuantang turned his head and looked towards the source of the sound. Hmm... I haven't seen it before.

There was only one prince in the royal family whom she had never seen, Crown Prince Situ Lang.

Xie Yuantang's eyes flickered slightly. Speaking of their relationship with the prince, it was really complicated.

On the one hand, Queen Jiang was her old enemy, but on the other hand, Yan Guanqing was Situ Lang's teacher. At least on the surface, the Yan family had always been on the side of the prince.

Under such a complicated relationship, Situ Lang never took the initiative to approach them. Even when Queen Jiang was under house arrest, he did not show up.

Today he came here...

Xie Yuantang tugged at Situ Yan's sleeve and winked at him: "Husband, Tangtang's hand hurts, let's go."

"Ah."

Situ Yan nodded and glanced at Situ Lang, Situ Qing and others.

He doesn't say hello to people he doesn't know well, but his wife said that he should talk to people he knows well.

He thought for a while, and finally fixed his eyes on Situ Feng: "Third sister, we're leaving first. Goodbye."

Situ Feng: “……???!!!”

What's going on?

Among all the people, was she treated differently by Situ Yan?

What's this inexplicable sense of pride?

Situ Feng straightened his back, and forgot about being afraid of Xie Yuantang. He smiled and waved to the two of them: "Yeah, yeah, Fifth Brother, goodbye!"

While waving her hands, she showed off to everyone around her: "My fifth brother!"

Everyone: “…” If you hadn’t been so cowardly just now, we would have really believed that you had a good relationship with them!

The happier Situ Feng smiled, the uglier Situ Qing's expression became.

In the past, everyone knew that she had the best relationship with Situ Yan, but now Situ Yan would rather greet Situ Feng than say a word to her.

Isn't this a slap in her face?

"Wait a minute, Fifth Brother."

Seeing the two were about to leave, Situ Lang approached, took a look at the injuries on him and Xie Yuantang, and showed a sad expression: "How can you leave with such injuries? It's better to treat the wounds first."

Then he turned to Situ Qing and said, "Please ask the imperial sister to call the palace doctor."

Situ Qing's eyes darkened for a moment, she pursed her lips and said, "Yes."

Situ Lang then looked at Situ Yan again: "Fifth brother, don't rush to leave. We brothers haven't seen each other for a long time. Fifth brother, you won't even give me this face, right?"

"I have no face..."

Situ Yan frowned and turned to look at Xie Yuantang.

Following his gaze, Situ Lang then met Xie Yuantang's gaze with a smile:

"This must be my fifth brother's wife, right? This is the first time we meet. I have heard a little about our mother's affairs. I apologize to you here."

"Put aside other matters for now. I am really worried about your injuries. How about treating your wounds first?"

Xie Yuantang tilted his head, blinked his big black eyes, and his dimples were faintly visible.

"Okay~"
