The princess returns strongly, and the divorced regent is busy chasing his wife

The two chatted as they walked, and soon they arrived at the Regent's Palace.

"master"

"Come in"

"Is the princess back?"

"My Lord, the princess is not coming back today?"

"What do you mean, if you don't come back today, will you come back tomorrow?"

"My Lord, the princess is going to stay at the Duke's Mansion for a while?"

"Why did she return to the Duke's Mansion?"

"I don't know about this, and you won't tell me about the princess's affairs."

"Get lost, you know nothing. I think it's time for you, the leader of the secret guards, to go back and study further."

"Master, no, I will definitely find out the princess's whereabouts next time. Please forgive me this time."

"get out"

The man glared unhappily at the skeletal figure standing at the door.

Gu Ying was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped again.

"Wait, if the princess doesn't come back, did the princess say she would bring the young prince back to the Duke's Mansion?"

"My Lord, the princess asked Siyu to come back and settle the young master. The young master will not leave the palace for the time being."

"Okay, that's good, you can go down."

This time, Guying came out of Zuimoxuan in one piece.

Gu Ying was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, fearing that his master would ask him to be retrained.

Duke's Mansion

Ouyang Miaoling brought Sifan back to the Poetry and Painting Pavilion in a swagger.

I had just returned and hadn't even sat down when I heard a maid reporting at the door.

"Miss, the master said you are back and asked you to go to the study. He has something to ask you."

"Okay, I got it. I'll pack up and go."

When the maid heard the answer from inside the room, she went back to report.

"Master, the Duke wants you to go, but you don't know why."

"I don't know, you'll find out when you get there."

"If we had known earlier, we could have made preparations earlier. If the Duke made things difficult for you, we could have come up with a solution sooner."

"If it comes, we should deal with it. If the enemy comes, we will stop him. If the water comes, we will block it with earth."

Ouyang Miaoling responded to Sifan's worries with a relaxed look.

"Let's go, follow me to meet our Duke."

"Yes"

Sifan followed Ouyang Miaoling, and the two of them came to the door of Duke Lu's study.

"Daddy, my daughter is here,"

"come in"

The voice of the Duke of Lu could be heard through the door, and he came with bad intentions.

Ouyang Miaoling went in and bowed and greeted.

"Where have you been these days? Why haven't you come back? Where's Yi'er? Why haven't you seen her either?"

"Daddy, don't you know?"

"what do you know?"

"Dad, Yi'er was kidnapped by thieves in the Duke's Mansion and almost died at their hands. Don't you know?"

Duke Lu widened his eyes and looked at his daughter in disbelief.

"You said Yi'er was captured by bandits in our mansion and was nearly killed."

"Yes Daddy"

Ouyang Miaoling's expression suddenly changed, she lowered her eyes and whispered.

"Who is so bold as to hurt my Yi'er? Is Yi'er injured?"

Ouyang Miaoling raised her head and looked at Duke Lu and said, "Fortunately, the Regent risked his life to save Yi'er. For this, the Regent's life was hanging by a thread and he almost died."

"No wonder the prince didn't attend court a few days ago. I just heard that he was injured. I never thought that he was seriously injured while saving Yi'er."

"Have you found the murderer who hurt Yi'er?"

Duke Lu asked with concern.

"Found it"

"who is it?"

"You are Daddy's good daughter, Ouyang Miaoyin"

"Impossible, impossible. Although Yin'er is naughty at ordinary times, she is definitely not a vicious person."

"If Dad doesn't believe me, you can ask the Regent."

After hearing what Ouyang Miaoling said, Duke Lu fell down on his chair.

She had heard that his Yin'er was thrown into a beggar's den by the Regent and was abused by the beggars. He wanted to find out the whole story. If the Regent had bullied his daughter, he would seek justice for his daughter even at the cost of his life.

But hearing Ling'er say that was really a blow to him.

If what Ouyang Miaoling said was true, then Ouyang Miaoyin's death deserved no pity.

"Daddy, Ouyang Miaoyin also poisoned the Regent and tried to get into his bed. The Regent found out and fed your Yin'er tea with aphrodisiac."

"Ouyang Miaoyin had brought this upon herself. I have spared her life for your sake, and this is the greatest kindness I have shown her."

"She tried to attack a five-year-old child. What a vicious woman. I was lucky not to kill her."

Duke Lu listened to Ouyang Miaoling's accusation against Ouyang Miaoyin with a look of shock and disbelief, and his body trembled uncontrollably.

His lips turned pale and he murmured to himself, "How is this possible? How could my Yin'er do such a thing?" His eyes were full of pain and disappointment.

Duke Lu's expression gradually became angry, he clenched his fists, veins bulging.

He could not accept this fact, and his heart was filled with disappointment and anger towards Ouyang Miaoyin.

His voice trembled as he said with grief and indignation: "How could she be so cruel? Yi'er is her own nephew!"

As his emotions got out of control, Ouyang Ze's tears welled up in his eyes, and his heart was filled with conflict and pain.

He didn't know how to face this reality, nor did he know how to treat his daughter in the future.

The daughter who once made him proud has now become an eternal pain in his heart.

"Ling'er, I understand. Thank you for not killing her. She deserves what she has today."

"Take me to apologize to the Regent first. I will prepare a generous gift and come to apologize in person someday."

"Dad, Ouyang Miaoyin is a vicious woman, and you still want to apologize for her"

"Ling'er, if a child is not well educated, it is the father's fault. It is Daddy who has not taught this daughter well. I, as her father, should bear the consequences for her."

“Daddy…”

Ouyang Miaoling wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Ouyang Ze with a wave of his hand.

"Ling'er, Daddy is sorry for you and Yi'er. Daddy didn't teach your sister well, and let her make such a big mistake. Daddy apologizes to you and Yi'er."

As he said this, Ouyang Ze was about to bow deeply to apologize to Ouyang Miaoling.

Ouyang Miaoling hurried forward to support her father.

"Daddy, you are embarrassing your daughter. Ouyang Miaoyin should bear the consequences of her mistakes herself."

"Ling Er, I'm sorry"

After Ouyang Ze finished speaking, two lines of tears flowed down his wrinkled cheeks.

Ouyang Miaoling felt very uncomfortable seeing Ouyang Ze like this, but she didn't know what to say, so she comforted her old father and told him not to think too much.

"Ling'er, Daddy is tired today, you go back first, Daddy will go and bring Yi'er back tomorrow"

"Dad, let Yi'er stay in the Regent's Mansion for now. It's safer there than in our Duke's Mansion. Besides, my daughter has other things to do recently, so let's talk about it later."

"Okay, whatever you say. When you want to bring Yi'er back, Daddy will go to pick her up personally."

"Okay, Daddy, then you should go to bed early."

"it is good"

After saying goodbye to Lu Guogong, Ouyang Miaoling returned to her own poetry and painting pavilion.

Sifan followed closely behind, and when the two returned to Shihuaxuan, Siyu had also returned.

"Master, where have you been? Siyu is so worried."

"We didn't go anywhere, we just went to Daddy's place"

"The Duke knows that the master is the Second Miss, and he wants to blame you."
