My stepmother is here, all the rebellious sons and evildoers should kneel down!

"Yes! Yes! I also think that the Thirteenth Prince is very hostile to 'Niansheng'. When we were making fried cicadas, the Thirteenth Prince was clearly targeting him!"

Die Jiu frowned, looked at the young lady and said suddenly: "Young lady, could it be... could it be that the Thirteenth Prince has long suspected that 'Nian Sheng' is General Ye?"

Wen Qiqi nodded, but before she could speak, she heard voices outside the door. Then someone came in and said that the Fourteenth Prince had arrived.

Die Jiu's face turned slightly red. These past few days, the Fourteenth Prince had been coming to the house to see her. Yesterday, he even said that he wanted to hold a grand engagement banquet first so that Die Jiu could marry into the family with dignity. He must have come today to discuss this matter.

"Fourteenth Prince."

The sisters from the Wen Mansion met the Fourteenth Prince. Seeing that everyone looked solemn, and seeing that Die Jiu and Xin Yi were also there, the Fourteenth Prince guessed that they were talking about his Thirteenth Brother.

"I heard that Qiqi had returned home, so I hurried over to see her. Diejiu and I have already chosen a date for our engagement. Since she is my daughter, it is natural that you have to give the final decision."

The Fourteenth Prince smiled slightly.

Wen Qiqi held Diejiu's hand, looked at the Fourteenth Prince and said, "Although Diejiu is my personal maid, we are as close as sisters. Now that she has found a good partner, I am naturally happy for her, but... Diejiu is of humble origin and the prince is of noble status. Although she can only enter the palace as a concubine, I am still worried that it will cause gossip from others, and they will definitely bully her in the future."

Die Jiu's eyes turned red when she heard the young lady always thinking about her.

Seeing this, the Fourteenth Prince hurriedly said, "As long as I am here, I will never let Xiaojiu suffer any injustice."

"We naturally believe in the prince's character."

Wen Ruofeng's heroic face was confident and dignified, and his voice was sonorous and powerful.

"However, Qiqi's worry is also necessary, because the prince has military affairs to deal with, and there are many complicated things in the palace. With Xiaojiu's background, it is inevitable that she will be looked down upon."

The Fourteenth Prince was already a little anxious at this time. Could it be that the Wen family had changed their minds and no longer wanted to marry Die Jiu to him?

"It's true that I won't be with Die Jiu all the time, but I promise that I will never neglect her. If you have any grievances, just tell me."

Wen Ruoxue smiled slightly and teased, "Your Highness is protecting Xiaojiu now?"

"Miss... look..."

Die Jiu wrinkled her nose shyly, pulled Wen Qiqi's arm and shook it gently.

Everyone couldn't help but laugh. Xinyi looked at Diejiu with a worried look on her face, but these days she had also seen that the Fourteenth Prince's favor for Xiaojiu was not just temporary, and Xiaojiu's admiration for the Fourteenth Prince was already written all over her face.

After hearing Wen Qiqi's persuasion, Xinyi now only hopes that her good sister can join the palace smoothly, live a happy life, and be protected by the prince.

Wen Qiqi looked at the Fourteenth Prince, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly: "Qiqi naturally believes in the Prince's promise. However, if Diejiu marries the Prince as a maid from the Wen Mansion, it is inevitable that people will gossip about her in the future... So, before the Prince and Diejiu get engaged, I plan to take her in as my adopted sister and let Xiaojiu marry as the adopted daughter of the Wen Mansion!"

After hearing this, Die Jiu and Xin Yi were stunned.

Neither of them expected that Wen Qiqi would make such a decision...

"Miss!"

Die Jiu was so surprised that she forgot to control her emotional expression.

"Miss! I'm just a girl, and you want to take me in as your sister? This is impossible! Absolutely not!"

She is lucky enough to marry the Fourteenth Prince!

Now the young lady wanted her to marry as the adopted daughter of the Wen family. As a servant, she could not afford such kindness.

Wen Qiqi looked at Die Jiu, her eyes full of love and reluctance.

"If I say you can take it, then you can take it. I have been in the Cining Palace these days, and when I have nothing to do, I have been thinking about the marriage between the Fourteenth Prince and you! After thinking about it, this is the only way for me to feel at ease to send you into the palace!"

Die Jiu's tears fell instantly.

Xinyi suddenly knelt on the ground with a plop: "Xinyi kowtows on behalf of Diejiu to thank the young lady for her kindness!" Both of them were maids who grew up together and were as close as sisters.

Today, seeing how well the Wen family treated Die Jiu, Xinyi felt indescribable excitement and warmth in her heart.

Die Jiu also knelt down silently.

"Die Jiu thanks Miss!"

"Get up quickly!"

Many sisters from the Wen Mansion helped the two girls up, while Xinyi and Diejiu burst into tears.

"Today is your wedding day, and I will consider you carefully. The same will apply if you marry someone you love in the future."

The two girls she loved the most and trusted the most were Xinyi and Diejiu.

In the previous life, these two girls followed her to marry into the Lu Mansion and suffered a lot and were bullied.

At last……

Wen Qiqi took a deep breath and said, "You have protected me, and I will do my best to treat you."

After she finished speaking, she turned and looked at the Fourteenth Prince: "Please take good care of Xiaojiu as you always do. If she does anything wrong, just ask me to punish her."

At this moment, the Fourteenth Prince was also moved by the deep love between Wen Qiqi and Die Jiu as master and servant, and his nose was sore.

"Qiqi, there's no need to say these words. Diejiu and I will be getting engaged on the ninth day of this month, is that ok?"

Wen Qiqi nodded: "There is a nine in her name. It is a good idea to set the engagement date on the ninth day of the lunar month."

The Fourteenth Prince relaxed his brows and gave Die Jiu a knowing smile.

At this time, Wen Ruotong had already ordered someone to make tea for the Fourteenth Prince. The Fourteenth Prince was not in a hurry today, so he sat down to taste the tea and asked bluntly, "Were you talking about the Thirteenth Brother just now?"

The Fourteenth Prince's personality is very similar to that of the Sixth Princess, both are extremely straightforward and honest.

The sisters in the Wen Mansion all like the straightforward character of the Fourteenth Prince. Wen Ruofeng nodded and said, "Qiqi is coming back home today, so we will get together and talk about the Thirteenth Prince."

"Ah."

The Fourteenth Prince nodded and said, "I have been thinking about this all the time. Thirteenth Brother really surprised me this time. I did not sleep all night last night. I still can't figure out why Thirteenth Brother has come to this point."

"Qiqi suspects that the Thirteenth Prince has something on him in East City."

Wen Ruoxue raised her eyebrows slightly and said.

When the Fourteenth Prince heard this, he immediately looked at Wen Qiqi and said, "Handle? What handle?"

"I haven't thought it through yet, but... Fourteenth Prince, don't you think that when you and Thirteenth Prince went on the expedition last time, there was nothing wrong with Thirteenth Prince! Except that he specifically targeted 'Niansheng'?"

Upon hearing Qiqi's words, the Fourteenth Prince was stunned.

After a long while, he finally nodded: "Thinking about it carefully, it is indeed true. Qiqi, if your speculation is correct, then I suspect... the events of that year are closely related to Thirteenth Brother!"
