Following Nanny Wen, they did not go to Ronghua Hall, but to a small path that was not remote but had never been walked on. Shang Tingli felt a little puzzled.

Look at how anxious Nanny Wen is. Could it be that my mother has something to ask her?

With doubts in my mind, I followed Nanny Wen for two quarters of an hour.

Xiuxiang Garden.

Shang Tingli looked up and saw the three words on the plaque. Her heart skipped a beat and her eyelids twitched. It wasn't just her left eyelid or her right eyelid, but both eyelids twitched at the same time. She stretched out her hands and rubbed her eyelids, whispering, "This is weird."

[Xiuxiang Garden? Isn't this the courtyard of Aunt Zheng? ]

During the days when she came to learn housekeeping from her mother, she had learned about every detail of the palace, such as who lived in which courtyard. She knew all of this clearly.

Shang Tingli's heart moved.

[Madame Wen is someone close to my mother, but she brought me and Ke Xingchen to Aunt Zheng's yard. Could something have happened?]

[The reason why my mother sent Nanny Wen to call us... could it be that Aunt Zheng's identity was exposed? Did my mother accidentally find out that she was the Fourth Prince's spy? Or...]

Thinking of this, she became inexplicably excited.

[Hahaha, although the show arranged by Ke Xingchen is not good to watch, what is waiting for me now is a real good show! ]

【Go, go, go, go...】

Her steps became faster.

There was a smile in Ke Xin's eyes.

Idiot, the show he really wanted to invite her to see certainly couldn't be to let her watch Ke Xiaowu fight.

"Your Majesty! I have not—"

"There is nothing wrong between me and His Majesty the Fourth Prince! If the prince doesn't trust me, I can die to prove my innocence!"

Xiuxiang Garden is much smaller than the courtyard of a real master. After walking a few steps into the courtyard, I reached the corridor and heard the sound coming from the house.

Such a shrill sound, even if you haven't seen the person, you can imagine what the scene is like.

【It really is……】

The guess was confirmed, Shang Tingli's eyes lit up slightly, and his whole body was visibly filled with joy.

Ke Xin saw her figure in his peripheral vision and chuckled. He knew what she was thinking without having to listen to her.

She was happy whenever Ke Ming got embarrassed. Or, she was even happier when he saw her get embarrassed.

She was just thinking about her own safety all the time.

"What are you doing here?"

When he saw his eldest son and daughter-in-law suddenly appearing at the door, Ke Youwei showed an obviously displeased expression. He saw Nanny Wen leading people over, and with a dark face he glanced at Wen Hui, who was sitting aside with a dull expression.

Why is the princess becoming more and more unruly? How can she let the younger generation see such an embarrassing thing?

Wen Hui ignored his complaints and just smiled at Shang Tingli and Ke Xin, "Xiao Li and Xing Chen are here? Come and sit down." She then instructed Bai Shao, "Serve tea to the Crown Princess and the Crown Prince."

"Yes."

Bai Shao happily poured tea for the Crown Princess and the Crown Prince.

Seeing this, Ke Youwei was furious: "What on earth are you doing here?"

Shang Tingli said nothing, holding the teacup in his hand, but his eyes glanced at Ke Xin beside him, waiting to see how he would respond.

"Why is father so angry?" Ke Xin took a sip of tea with an innocent expression, "I am not alone in the aunt's courtyard. I am with the Crown Prince's wife. Besides, aren't you here? Mother is here too."

He seemed to have just realized that besides them, there was another person named Ke Ming in the room, so he said in surprise: "Brother Jihua is here too!"

Shang Tingli paused as he was about to drink his tea, and couldn't help but look at him, pulling the corner of his mouth as if he wanted to say something but stopped.

[Uh, you didn't hear anything at all when "I and the Fourth Prince" were being said so loudly? ]

Ke Xin lowered his head and covered the smile on his lips. How could he be blind? Couldn't it be that his acting skills were good?

The moment Ke Ming saw the two of them, his mind suddenly went blank.

He never thought that he just came here to relax like he did in the past, but who knew that he would have an accident today!

His affair with Zheng could never be made public. Not to mention that Ke Youwei was his uncle and Zheng was his uncle's concubine. Even if they were not related in this way, they were still a monarch and a subject. How could a monarch seek pleasure in the room of a subject's concubine?

It would be fine if this matter was discovered, but it had to be… He glanced at Shang Tingli secretly, his eyes darkened, she had to see it, this was the woman he was really interested in…

At this moment, Ke Ming hated his own carelessness.

Ke Xin's words left Ke Youwei speechless. He looked at Wenhui, trying to get her to say something for him, but Wenhui didn't even look at him.

"My Lord, Princess, my innocent body will never be slandered!"

Zheng fell to her knees on the ground, her face pale, as if she had been slandered, wronged and misunderstood. She was about to stand up and hit the pillar of the house.

"If the prince and princess insist on sentencing me to death, my blood will be spilt all over the ground to avenge myself and His Highness the Fourth Prince!" Zheng continued to shout.

In a flash, she really ran towards the pillar, and this didn't seem like a joke.

[How can this be? ]

Shang Tingli put down his teacup and immediately shouted, "She's going to commit suicide! Catch her quickly!"

Someone was faster than Chang Di and hugged the person.

Zheng looked at the person who was hugging her, crying, "My Lord, you believe me, right?"

Ke Youwei did not answer her. He ordered his men with a cold face: "Tie up Aunt Zheng and keep an eye on her. Don't let her commit suicide."

believe her?

Do you really think he is a stupid ass?

God knows how angry he was when he saw the two naked figures entangled on the bed. This was his concubine's room, and he was standing here. The figure on the bed could not be him.

At that moment, if he had not spoken out to disturb their pleasure, would they have planned to continue doing it until dark?

The moment he saw the adulterer, Ke Youwei became so angry that he almost vomited blood.

The adulterer turned out to be Ke Ming?

Is it the handsome and elegant Fourth Prince? !

For a moment, Ke Youwei thought he had seen it wrong. However, in fact, not only was he not wrong, he saw it clearly. He even saw how the "adulterer" made love with his concubine.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Ke Youwei felt that as a man he could not tolerate this, so he immediately shouted angrily, "I want to go to the palace!" He raised his hands to the sky, "I want the emperor to judge. Is there any justice in this?"

After that, he turned around and walked out.

Ke Ming became anxious and blocked Ke Youwei's way with one quick step.

Ke Youwei blew his beard and glared: "What do you mean, Fourth Prince? Do you still want me to swallow my anger?"

"...I'm sorry, Uncle Wang." Ke Ming clasped his fists and apologized to Ke Youwei. His face was sincere. "Uncle Wang, I was blinded by evil and did such a stupid thing. I don't dare to expect Uncle Wang to forgive me. I only ask Uncle Wang not to tell my father about this. I will agree to whatever Uncle Wang asks."

Ke Youwei sneered: "Your Highness, that's easy for you to say."

Ke Ming said: "I hope Uncle Wang will help me."

Ke Youwei refused to give in and wanted to report the matter to Emperor Mingwu. Ke Ming was really afraid that he would make a big fuss about it, so he had to be patient and humble himself to calm him down.

The two were in a stalemate.

Zheng, who was tied up, was still sobbing. Wenhui was sipping tea with an indifferent look. Ke Xin hung his head, thinking about something, while Shang Tingli held the teacup and watched the show silently.

[No matter whether Ke Xingchen finally came to his senses or not, at least the fate of his mother and the others in their previous lives was successfully rewritten.]

[However, after what happened today, if Ke Xingchen has no intention of wavering at all, it would be too...]

"..." Ke Xin knew that what she probably wanted to say was - too stupid.

Wenhui almost couldn't hold back her laughter. She quickly put down the teacup, wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and then covered her mouth with it.

At this time, it is not appropriate to laugh out loud.

This would easily make people think that she was gloating, although she was indeed gloating. She actually wanted to set off some firecrackers to celebrate, to celebrate that she had lived another comfortable day, and to celebrate that her little Li didn't have to worry about her safety.

For what happened today, she could only say that God was displeased and therefore let Ke Youwei catch him in the act, and she also happened to catch him in the act.

She came here today for no other reason than to remind Zheng Shi of something. Ever since the incident with Kang Ping was exposed, she was afraid that Ke Youwei could not control himself. It was no secret that the prince doted on Concubine Zheng, but the royal family was still in mourning for the queen mother, and they were not allowed to have sex during this period. She was afraid that Ke Youwei would not know the seriousness of the situation and make a big mistake, harming their entire palace.

She was also very conflicted about whether to remind Zheng, as she had only come here after so many days. She did not expect that there was such a big gift waiting for her.

Xiaoli couldn't let her miss this great show, and it would also let Xiaoli know that from today onwards, Zheng, this thorn in the side, would be removed from the mansion.

[I was worried that my mother would be framed, and I was also afraid that she would have high hopes for the prince, and would be heartbroken. So even if I tried to remind her, I did it in a subtle way, and only dared to pass some nonsense like "demote my wife to a concubine" or "favor my concubine and kill my wife" to her.]

[That's good now. I don't have to worry about this anymore. From today on, the prince will definitely dislike the fourth prince. As one of the murderers who killed my mother in the previous life, Zheng will die with regrets in this life. Even if the prince really wants to spare her life, the fourth prince will not spare her life.]

[As long as she walks out of the palace gate, Zheng will face only death.]

After listening to her thoughts, Wenhui said in her heart: Even if she doesn't leave the palace, she will die. Given Ke Youwei's personality, there is no way Zheng will survive.

"Father, please agree to Brother Jihua's request."

Ke Xin, who had been sitting quietly on the side, suddenly spoke up, and the two people who had been arguing fell silent at the same time. Not only them, but even Shang Tingli and Wen Hui looked at him in surprise.

Ke Youwei said in disbelief: "What did you say?"

Shang Tingli also had an expression of disbelief, but he understood it in a moment.

[Alas, you are still the Fourth Prince's lackey? The Fourth Prince is like this, how can you still be so loyal? ]

[Ke Xingchen, you are so disappointing. ]

Wenhui thought the same thing as her. She was extremely disappointed with her eldest son. Couldn't he hear Xiaoli's voice? Why did he still choose to support the fourth prince? Didn't he care about his life and his mother?

Noticing the disappointed looks of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Ke Xin: "..."

"Yes, Uncle Wang, since Xingchen has said so, will you agree to it?"

Ke Ming gave Ke Xin an admiring look. This is how his people should protect him.

Ke Youwei felt his temples throbbing. His son really came to contradict him. He pointed at Ke Xin and cursed angrily, "Ke Xingchen! Your father has been cuckolded, and you still dare to ask me to be patient? Do you think I am a bastard? Huh?"
