The War God Uncle's Delicate Wife

Qin Ziyi had expected this to happen before she came, but she still didn't want to miss even a chance to save her father, so she came here without hesitation. However, the attitude of the Third Prince at this moment was like a basin of ice water poured over her head, making her heart as cold as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

"Cousin, listen to my advice, you should go home quickly! If your aunt knew that you ran out alone, she would be very worried." The third prince looked at the cousin who had been following him closely since childhood, sighed helplessly, and advised kindly. He knew the complexity and danger of this incident very well, and he really didn't want to get involved.

"Cousin, my father..." Qin Ziyi began hesitantly, but was interrupted halfway through her words.

"Cousin, I have other things to deal with. It's getting late, and I should go back!" The Third Prince looked at Qin Ziyi indifferently, not giving her the chance to finish her words. Ever since his mother was demoted from a noble concubine to a noble lady, not only did he lose his father's favor and attention, but even the princes and nobles who were on good terms with him on weekdays began to avoid him. Today, he finally made an appointment with several sons of court officials to have a party together, but he didn't expect Qin Ziyi to suddenly come to his door, and he couldn't help but feel a little angry.

Ever since his mother's accident, the third prince has kept in mind her advice: it is better to try not to interfere in the affairs of his uncle's family. After all, they are no longer the same as they were in the past. If they annoy his father again because of some insignificant people or things, the consequences will probably be more serious. Thinking of this, the third prince decided not to pay attention to Qin Ziyi in front of him, and turned around and prepared to leave.

The Third Prince left the place quickly after he finished speaking, leaving Qin Ziyi alone with a look of astonishment. She could never have imagined that the Third Prince, who had always been very polite to her, would suddenly treat her in this way! After all, before this, she had always been with her cousin, and her status and treatment were much higher than those of others.

However, Qin Ziyi felt extremely lost and confused at this moment. She didn't understand why the Third Prince would do this. Was it because she had done something wrong? Or did he no longer value her?

When she thought about the current predicament her family was facing, Qin Ziyi's resentment became stronger. She had originally hoped to get out of the predicament with the help of the third prince, but now it seemed unlikely. Faced with such a situation, Qin Ziyi could not help but fall into deep thought...

The Third Prince left the bookstore and prepared to go home. Sitting in the carriage, he thought about all the things that had happened recently. It seemed that everything was wrong. Jiang Li, who used to follow him around, had hardly seen him since the birthday banquet. His mother and the Qin family also had problems. He pounded the wall of the carriage in annoyance.

In the study of the Third Prince's Mansion, several people were sitting together, discussing matters concerning the Qin family with serious expressions.

One of the staff members said to the Third Prince sincerely, "Your Highness, you'd better avoid going out recently to avoid encountering the Qin family again. Since the Queen has asked you not to interfere in this matter, we should hold back for the time being and wait for the opportunity."

The Third Prince frowned slightly, revealing a trace of worry. He responded, "Now my mother has been exiled, and I can do nothing about it. Not only has my father forbidden my brother and I from participating in court affairs, but he has also restricted us from visiting my mother."

At this time, another aide cautiously suggested: "Your Majesty currently only trusts the Regent. Would you consider trying to establish contact with the Regent?"

Hearing the word "Regent", the Third Prince's face instantly turned ugly. He shook his head and said firmly: "Ninth Prince? As everyone knows, the Ninth Prince is always impartial and will never give others any benefits! It is harder than climbing to the sky to seek help from him!"

However, the aide pointed out: "But this is the only way to go right now. Your Majesty is in a very difficult situation now. If you can get the support of the Regent, you may be able to turn the situation around."

The Third Prince fell into deep thought. He knew what his staff said was true, but he was really afraid to approach the formidable Ninth Prince. However, for the safety of his mother, he knew he had to face this challenge bravely.

The Third Prince still placed all his hopes on the Regent at this moment, but he was completely unaware that in secret, the Regent had already regarded him as a mortal enemy and was on guard against him.

"Master, today the Third Prince invited several sons of court ministers to meet at the bookstore. People in our bookstore reported that the eldest daughter of the Qin family was also there to plead for mercy, but the Third Prince ignored her and just turned and left! After returning to the mansion, he discussed with his staff for a long time and said that he wanted to contact you." Chang Yun reported all this to the Regent tremblingly.

After hearing this, the regent simply responded, "Let him be. He won't be able to achieve anything great. Just keep an eye on the second prince." The regent didn't seem to care too much about the third prince. His hostility towards the third prince only stemmed from Jiang Li's hard pursuit of the third prince in the past.

Chang Yun secretly looked at his master in surprise. He originally thought that his master sent someone to keep an eye on the Third Prince just to teach him a lesson, but he didn't expect that the one he really needed to guard against was the seemingly amiable but actually insidious and cunning Second Prince! Chang Yun couldn't help but sigh at his master's foresight and keen insight. So, he took the order without hesitation and went out.
