The regent is determined to get the daughter of a minor official.

"What's more, the princess has become much more docile since I don't know when. I can't wait to love her enough!"

Chu Musheng continued.

Tan Ce was speechless, even the tea in his mouth tasted too sweet.

Place a chess piece on the board to seize the initiative.

......

Anxiang came in skipping and jumping from the mansion gate and was stopped by Manager Yao.

"Anxiang, what's wrong with you lately? Instead of serving the princess properly, you're always running out. Be careful or we'll report you to the prince."

Anxiang didn't get angry but laughed when she heard that.

"Eunuch Yao, you are always busy with trivial matters in the mansion. Are your skills still good? Why don't we have a sparring match?"

Having said that, he chopped with a knife without caring whether Manager Yao agreed or not.

"Hey, you little secret guard have grown up now. Come on, no one is afraid of you."

Manager Yao didn't tolerate her either, and the two of them started fighting over a disagreement.

I saw that Anxiang was agile and light as a sparrow, and her moves were swift and tricky.

Manager Yao was no less capable. Although he was already a thirty-six-year-old man, he had profound skills and his defense was impenetrable.

For a while, the two of them fought back and forth, and it was difficult to tell who was better.

The servants in the mansion gathered around to watch, surrounding them so tightly that there was no way out.

Sheng Er crossed his arms to cheer for Manager Yao.

"Master Yao, your sword is still sharp! Quickly capture this little maid."

"Shut up! I'll tell the princess you're still looking at the picture of the villain in the middle of the night."

Anxiang took the time to retort.

Sheng Er......

Sheng San.......

Chu Wu.......

Everyone around shut up in embarrassment. Everyone has a little secret.

"Oh, little girl, you're really good at it!"

Manager Yao blocked Anxiang's attack with a palm, rubbed his old arm, and had a smile on his face.

Anxiang jumped away, put her hands on her hips, and said with a smile.

"Eunuch Yao, thank you for letting me!"

"I'm old. I don't want to move after a few moves."

Manager Yao sat down on the chair brought by the servants.

"You, little maid, have not lost your skills. Tell me, what have you been doing running out so often lately?"

Anxiang leaned close to Manager Yao's ear and whispered:

"Eunuch Yao, I am only following orders. The princess is pregnant with the young prince and it is inconvenient for her to go out.

I must go out and find out some interesting news so that the princess can have a good listen."

Manager Yao looked at her doubtfully.

"Okay, I'll trust you this time, but please don't cause any trouble for us."

Anxiang stuck out her tongue, made a cute expression, and then ran away.

"This girl has let herself go since she stopped being a secret guard. Look at her lively personality. She's exactly like Dingdang who is by the princess's side."

Manager Yao took the tea handed to him by Sheng Er, took a sip and sighed.

Sheng Er quickly took the opportunity to explain himself.

"Butler Yao, um, don't misunderstand me. What I looked at last night wasn't some picture of a villain. It was a martial arts manual..."

Manager Yao rolled his eyes at him.

"Humph, do you think I'm a three-year-old kid? Would you read a martial arts manual in the middle of the night?"

Sheng Er looked aggrieved. He just wanted to watch the fun, but ended up bringing upon himself this unexpected disaster.

"Butler Yao, I really wasn't lying. That's a true secret technique. I want to learn more so I can serve the prince."

Manager Yao took a sip of tea.

"Alright, alright, this isn't our family's business. If you want to get married, go find Nanny Wang. She'll take care of this."

"It's really not that..."

Sheng Er was in tears as the matter got worse and worse.

At this time, there was a noise coming from the distance. It turned out that the chef of the palace was preparing ingredients for the dinner.

"The princess wants to eat Buddha Jumps Over the Wall tonight. You should prepare it early. The ingredients must be carefully checked to ensure they are fresh and harmless."

Nanny Wang was directing the cooks and they were busy as hell.

Manager Yao put down his teacup and stood up to chase the people away.

"Don't just sit here and do something else."

Everyone dispersed and went about their own business.

Only Sheng Er is still trying to explain who is who.

“That’s really not a villain picture…”

In the end, no one believed him and suggested that he go find Nanny Wang.

Sheng Er.....

Little maid, you have ruined the Second Master's reputation, you must take responsibility...

The little maid Anxiang trotted back to the princess's Jinyun Palace and saw Xu Keke feeding the parrot.

"Miss, I'm back."

Anxiang said while panting.

"I'm home."

The parrot learned a sentence.

Xu Ke smiled and turned around to look at Anxiang.

"Why are you running so fast? Sit down and rest for a while."

Dingdang ran over from somewhere.

"Anxiang, what did you find out?"

Anxiang took a deep breath and began to tell the story vividly.

"Miss, the Second Madam hasn't come to see you these past few days, not because the prince has returned, but because there's a new ancestor in their house."

"What?"

Xu Keke and Dingdang asked in unison, where did that ancestor come from?

Anxiang quickly stood up and helped Xu Ke to sit on the couch.

"Miss, please don't be impatient. Sit down and I will explain it to you slowly."

Xu Keke sat down on the couch, and Dingdang put a soft pillow under her waist.

The two of them looked at Anxiang again.

"Who went to Xu's house?"

"That's your grandmother, young lady. She wasn't happy with the first wife's life, so she took the only maid she had with her to the second wife's family."

Xu Keke and Dingdang looked at each other.

This old thief was so shameless that she kicked the second wife's family out of the house.

Now the situation in the first wife's house is getting worse day by day, and he even ran away to the second wife's house.

"The Second Master and Second Madam took her in?"

Dingdang asked.

Anxiang shook her head.

"How could that be possible! The Second Madam almost had that old woman kicked out.

But the old woman was crying and making a fuss at the door.

No matter what the Second Master said, it all came out of her belly.

She was the one who raised him with great difficulty.

If you don't support her as an old mother, it will be against the will of heaven and you will suffer retribution.

The Second Master is kind-hearted and didn't have the heart to be cruel. "

Xu Ke said with a pout.

"Dad is just too easy to talk to. That old woman was so heartless back then, she shouldn't have been allowed in."

Anxiang continued.

“Although she was allowed in, the Second Madam didn’t treat her well and placed her in a remote courtyard.

Two maids were assigned to serve her, and the meals she provided were barely enough to keep her warm and full.”

Dingdang snorted coldly.

"She brought this upon herself. She was always calculating and disregarding family affection. So what's she planning to do this time?"

Anxiang lowered her voice and said.

“I heard that they wanted the Second Master to help the eldest master and his son in the first house in the officialdom, but the Second Master refused on the spot.

She said she had severed ties with the first wife a long time ago. The old woman started throwing a tantrum, saying the second master was unfilial and that she was going to file a complaint with the authorities.

Xu Ke was so angry that he slammed the couch.

"She dares to report it to the authorities? Does she really think our second branch is easy to bully?"
