Seeing that Wen Liang didn't dare to do anything to her, Princess Pingning became even more arrogant and approached Wen Liang step by step. "Ye Liang, you said last year that you were going to visit your mentor, and you were gone for more than 20 days. I think you went home! The Marquis had a very happy time during that time. You haven't seen your one-year-old daughter yet, right?"

Wen Liang froze. He did go home last year, but he said he was visiting his mentor because he was afraid that Princess Pingning would be suspicious. Why did he suddenly talk about this matter, and what about his newborn daughter? He remembered that he couldn't control his emotions after returning home, and he had an intimate relationship with his wife Ye Xiuying. Later, Ye Xiuying knew that he was remarried, so she refused to sleep with him. Could it be that Ye Xiuying got pregnant that time?

When Wen Liang learned that he had a daughter, he suddenly became emotional. He owed Ye Xiuying too much. He would rather raise the child by himself than let Qingcheng tell him. He took on everything. Wen Liang felt guilty and said seriously, "You actually sent someone to investigate them! Yes, I went home, and the child is mine. She is my original wife, and it is reasonable for me to have a child with her. If the lady is dissatisfied, she can come to me. Why bother them?"

When Princess Pingning saw that he had confessed everything, although she hated him in her heart, she smiled, "My Lord, look at you, why are you so anxious? Your muscles are about to burst." Princess Pingning took out a piece of silk and walked over to wipe the sweat from Wen Liang's forehead.

Wen Liang was a little confused as to why she suddenly changed her expression. He was a little uncomfortable with Princess Pingning's sudden gentleness.

"My Lord, I didn't go to ask about them. Qingcheng took them to Kyoto. I went to Haitianju for lunch with a few of my friends and we ran into them."

Wen Liang was shocked. "You said Xiuying came to Kyoto? Is Zicheng here too?"

"Yes, otherwise how would I know that you have a one-year-old daughter!" Princess Pingning glared at Wen Liang.

"Why would they come to Kyoto? When did it happen?" Wen Liang murmured.

Princess Pingning said, "Qingcheng is really something. Since my sister and the others are here, why don't they bring them to the Marquis' Mansion? We are all family. How can we live outside? If people knew about this, they would think that I, Princess Pingning, can't tolerate others."

Wen Liang was a little surprised. He thought Princess Pingning would make a scene and then go back to the Princess's Mansion. "Are you really willing to let Xiuying move to the Marquis' Mansion with her child?"

Princess Pingning nodded with a smile, "Yes. In our family, every master has three wives and four concubines. You only have me as your wife, and you don't have any concubines. My sister is your original wife, so how can you let her live out in the world forever? Besides, you have a son. I have seen that child, and he looks exactly like you. He is the son of a marquis, so how can you let him suffer out in the world? I am getting older now, and I don't know if I can get pregnant. When Qian'er gets married, I will inevitably be lonely. It is a good opportunity to bring my son here and treat him as my own son."

Wen Liang saw that Princess Pingning was sincere. He thought that she had a miscarriage last year and must be eager for a child. If she really wanted to, it would be great to bring Xiuying, Zicheng and his little daughter, whom he had never met. Wen Liang was delighted and said, "Madam, you are really sensible."

Princess Pingning smiled and said, "I am a very reasonable person, but you just don't understand me. Bring my sister and the children here, and we won't be divided into older and younger. We will be equal wives and live a down-to-earth life as a family."

Wen Liang couldn't help but raise his lips, and went over to hug Princess Pingning in his arms, "It's rare that you are so virtuous. I used to think you were spoiled, and I didn't dare to tell you that Qingcheng is my daughter. It was my fault."

"Why would you think that? For a family like ours, the more descendants we have, the more prosperous it is. Having many children is a good thing. If you can truly love and accept Qian'er, I can naturally accept Qingcheng and your other children."

Wen Liang was very happy to hear Princess Pingning say this. He was originally worried that Princess Liyang would know that he had saved Wen Qingcheng with the imperial edict and that she was his daughter, and would instigate Princess Pingning not to accept Qingcheng. It seemed that he was overthinking.

The next morning, Wen Liang brought a lot of things and went to Wen Qingcheng's house. Early in the morning, Wen Qingcheng and her family were having breakfast when Zhu Ling walked in from outside the house: "Miss, the Marquis is here."

The silver chopsticks in Ye Xiuying's hand instantly fell onto the table, making a crisp sound. "I won't see him." Ye Xiuying said, and stood up and walked quickly into the room. Xue'er was still sitting on the child chair that Mo Jinghong bought for her, eating the pancake in her hand. Zicheng stood up excitedly when he heard that his father was here. He really wanted to be like other little friends, with a mother who loved him and a father who loved him.

Wen Qingcheng saw Ye Xiuying return to the house and was thinking of talking to Wen Liang, so she put down her bowl and chopsticks and stood up to greet him. Wen Liang came in with two large bags, and Zicheng looked at Wen Liang steadily, standing there without saying a word, until Wen Liang came in, saw Zicheng, and stretched out his hand to beckon him over. Zicheng then ran over and threw himself into Wen Liang's arms, frowning, and tears as big as beans rolled down silently.

"Zicheng, let daddy take a good look at you. Do you miss me?"

Zicheng sobbed softly and nodded vigorously. Wen Liang also missed his son and his wife. Now, he could finally bring his wife and son home with good reason. He would spend the rest of his life making it up to them.

"Zicheng, Dad is here to take you and your mother home." Wen Liang said emotionally.

Zicheng asked, "Is elder sister going with us?"

Wen Qingcheng's face darkened instantly. She gently pulled Wen Liang's sleeve, motioning him to come to the side.

"I knew that Princess Pingning would definitely tell my mother about coming to Kyoto." Wen Qingcheng crossed her arms and said coldly.

"What's wrong, Qingqing? I want to bring your mother and the others home. Don't you agree? You don't have to worry about the princess. She agreed to let me bring your mother and the others back home. Everything has been settled."

Wen Qingcheng was almost speechless. How could his father be so naive! He actually thought that Princess Pingning was so virtuous that she would allow him to bring his original family to the Marquis' Mansion?

Wen Liang was immersed in joy, and when he saw the pink Wen Yuxue sitting beside him, he walked over excitedly and squatted down to look. "Daughter, daddy is here, call daddy."

Wen Qingcheng looked over with some confusion. It was the first time that Wen Liang met Wen Yuxue, so where did the fatherly love come from? Besides, Xue'er was not his biological daughter.

Wen Yuxue looked at Wen Liang blankly with her big, bright eyes, and of course she wouldn't call him. Zicheng also came over, "Dad, this is your first time meeting Xue'er, isn't she cute?"

"Xue'er? You said her name is Xue'er. What a nice name." Wen Liang took out a toy from the big bag and stuffed it into Xue'er's hand.

"Yes, her name is Wen Yuxue. It's the name given to her by my eldest sister." Zicheng said.

"Let me see my little girl." Wen Liang reached out to hug Wen Yuxue. Xue'er was still a little shy, and when Wen Liang pinched her arm and picked her up, she immediately started crying.
