Song Guan was beaten up. In order not to bother Bai Qianshan anymore and also to avoid being pointed at by passers-by with his panda eyes, he decisively chose to take a carriage.

Qiao Wenyuan held a cup of hot tea and looked at Song Guan, who was squeezed in his carriage and grimacing and crying in pain. His expression of watching a good show was too obvious.

"Uncle, bear with it, I'll help you apply some medicine first!"

Song Moli also had an expression of wanting to laugh but not daring to. She took the small porcelain bottle that Zhou Sisi gave her, covered her face with it, and helped Song Guan apply the medicine while holding back her smile.

"You guys are so heartless. You just watched me get beaten up like that! You didn't even bother to help! Am I still your uncle or not? We are a family!"

Hearing his uncle still complaining, Song Moli couldn't help but secretly exert more force on the hand that was applying the medicine.

"Hey, hey, hey! Be gentle! This is a face, not a shoe sole, why are you hitting it so hard!" Song Guan gasped in pain and thought for a moment that his nephew was deliberately taking revenge on him.

"A-Li, give him the medicine bottle. You've spoiled him! You took my kindness for granted and let him apply it in front of the bronze mirror!"

"He's so talkative, it looks like Uncle Bai is showing some mercy!"

Zhou Sisi took the medicine bottle from Song Moli's hand unhappily, stuffed it into Song Guan's hand, and pulled Song Moli to sit next to her.

"Look at you, I just said it, and you protected me so quickly?"

"Master Qiao, are you not going to do anything about it? Is it appropriate for them to do this in public?"

Song Guan rubbed his bruised eyes and tried to shift the blame to someone else, wanting Qiao Wenyuan to speak for him, not realizing that they were family.

"What's wrong? I think my little girl did the right thing! Of course we have to protect our own people!"

"Don't try to drive a wedge between us, you little brat. Keep your little tricks to yourself!"

"Tell me, if you had studied martial arts well, would you have been pinned to the ground by the White Island Master like this? You should have at least been able to take on one or two of his moves!"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk! You didn't even block three attacks and got beaten like a bear. I don't even hesitate to say that to you! It's really shameful!"

Qiao Wenyuan's expression of disdain was all over his face. He even wanted to stand up and slap this shameful guy. How could the Song family produce a second-generation ancestor like him? Alas! He must be lucky!

"That's right! You were beaten so badly just now, and now you blame us. Who asked you to come? No one invited you to come! You asked for it!"

"You still want to sow discord between us? I think you are dreaming. My father has known about the matter between A-Li and me for a long time. My father is not a pedantic person. He is the wisest, most reasonable, most fair and open-minded person in the whole of Dayu. Do you think everyone is as petty as you?"

"Right! A-Li!" Zhou Sisi secretly squeezed Song Moli's hand.

Song Moli immediately received the signal and said, "Yes! Of course, if my uncle is not satisfied, you can go back now!"

Zhou Sisi didn't let him go either. She followed up on Qiao Wenyuan's words and started complaining about Song Guan. She also dragged Song Moli into praising Qiao Wenyuan. The old man was so happy that his teeth almost flew out of his mouth.

"Come on, come on, you are the family and I am the outsider! I was wrong! Stop talking, okay? Apply the medicine to me quickly! Please! Please!"

Song Guan admitted defeat directly. Qiao Wenyuan alone was enough for him to handle, and with Zhou Sisi and his nephew joining forces, that's it! He shouldn't have asked for trouble!

Dayu Palace

Emperor Dayu was still thinking today that Song Lingyun would definitely come to him after knowing that he had imprisoned Concubine Mei. He was waiting for Song Lingyun to come to the palace on her own initiative so that he could have a good chat with her. He waited for a whole day, and when it was dark, his eldest daughter still hadn't come into the palace.

By the time he found out that she had taken people out of the city, it was already time for dinner. The Queen Mother told him when she came to him for dinner.

The Empress Dowager also learned about it through Gu Lanyue. In the afternoon, Gu Lanyue and Song He went to the palace to visit the Empress Dowager. In fact, they just wanted to find out whether it was true that Concubine Mei was imprisoned.

As soon as the couple appeared, the Queen Mother knew why they came to the palace. They said they came to see her, but no one would believe it!

They usually don't come to the palace, but when they heard the gossip, the couple ran away so fast. They are the kind of people who like to watch the fun and enjoy the trouble!

In order to find out the news, Gu Lanyue released the news that Song Guan had rushed to her house in the afternoon to look for someone, in order to exchange information with the Queen Mother.

When the empress dowager saw her second daughter-in-law with an expression that said "if you don't tell me, I won't tell you", she knew there was nothing she didn't understand, so she told her why Concubine Mei was imprisoned and the bloody scene she saw in the morning. The second daughter-in-law, who loved to watch the fun, was so shocked that her eyes widened.

As an exchange of information, Gu Lanyue also told him that Song Guan went to look for someone but failed, and then chased after him. She was also very considerate and told him that Zhou Sisi, Qiao Wenyuan and her eldest son had also been there.

Of course, she did not forget to tell her that her youngest son had told her that her brother-in-law Song Guan was going to be beaten up by Lord Bai Island. He described it with such detail, as if he was about to see it himself, that even Song He, who was sitting nearby and eating pastries, was shocked!

Song He: ??? When did this happen? How come he doesn’t know? Why didn’t anyone tell him? Are they trying to isolate him?

The Queen Mother then realized that Song Lingyun, Zhou Sisi and others had gathered so many people to leave the capital. She just didn't know what these people were going to do and why so many people were going. Even the old man, Tutor Qiao, went with them. It seemed like a big deal!

Gu Lanyue actually didn't quite understand what they were going to do. Song Ziyu knew that his mother was also a chatterbox, so he said everything he could say and didn't utter a single word that he shouldn't say.

If this ruined Zhou Sisi and Song Lingyun's plans and they came back to settle the score with him, the consequences would be something he couldn't bear.

After Emperor Dayu knew the news, he asked Zhang Dehai to verify whether it was true. When Zhang Dehai hurried out and came back with an anxious look, Emperor Dayu knew that it was true.

It seems that when Song Lingyun and the others come back, it will be time to settle the accounts! Emperor Dayu couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this. What a sin! Misfortune for the family!

At the same time, he was looking forward to meeting his son. He didn't know what his son looked like, whether he would look like Ayi, whether he would have any opinions about him as a father, or whether he would resent him for not looking for him for so many years. His head hurt even more when he thought of this.

"Your Majesty, I beg you to let my mother go! She knows she is wrong!"

"Father! I beg you!"

The fourth prince Song Yuhuan knelt on the ground at the door of the imperial study and shouted towards the room, trying to use his loud voice to knock open his father's cold heart.

Zhang Dehai was relatively close, so he trotted out immediately. Seeing Song Yuhuan kneeling at the door, he shook his head helplessly and turned to go into the house.

"Your Majesty! The Fourth Prince is kneeling at the door! He wants to see you, Your Majesty!"

Zhang Dehai had a conflicted expression, not knowing whether he should tell the emperor about the Fourth Prince's request for an audience. Although the emperor had previously said that he would not see the Fourth Prince, Song Yuhuan, as the chief eunuch of the palace, it was still his job to bite the bullet and report this matter to Emperor Dayu.

"No! Let him go back!"

"Tell him that if he dares to come and plead for Concubine Mei again, I will demote him to a commoner!"

Emperor Dayu seemed to have a worse headache. He rubbed his temple and roared at the door. Zhang Dehai immediately turned around and walked out of the room carefully.

He looked at Song Yuhuan and sighed deeply, "Alas! It's really the mother who made the mistake and the child who suffered!"
