Xia Tian's sarcastic tone made Liu very angry.

When he reacted, he immediately said angrily, "What nonsense?"

Everyone in the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion knew that she hated maids seducing their masters the most, and yet they dared to say that in front of her?

Xia Tian naturally heard about this as well.

It is said that one year a maid took advantage of Liu's pregnancy and tried to get into the bed of Marquis Wu'an. When Liu found out, she beat the maid up and sold her out.

At that time, Marquis Wu'an had a quarrel with Liu, but the matter was suppressed by the old lady, who told the people in the mansion that the maid was sold because of her bad deeds.

She said this on purpose today just to disgust Liu.

Liu regarded Shen Ke as the apple of her eye and would never allow him to fool around with a maid before getting married.

"You'll know whether I'm talking nonsense or not if you take a look." Xia Tian gestured for her to look at Shen Ke and Qiuyue.

When Liu turned around, she saw Qiuyue following Shen Ke like a young wife, but she didn't see anyone she was asked to call.

Suddenly she got angry, "Qiuyue, where is the person I asked you to call?"

When Liu looked over, Qiuyue was lowering her head and covering her face with her hands.

From Liu's perspective, she looked like a wronged young wife.

In fact, it was really nothing, but because Xia Tian said that, Liu Shi felt that everything she saw was a little suspicious.

Qiuyue heard Liu's unfriendly tone and hurried over a few steps to reply, "Madam, I wanted to go out to call for help, but I ran into the Fourth Young Master halfway.

The Fourth Young Master said there was no need to call anyone, he would come over to take a look, so I didn’t go looking for anyone anymore.”

It would have been fine if she didn't explain, but once she did it seemed more like what Xia Tian said was the truth.

However, in front of so many people, Liu also had to give face to her son. As for Qiuyue, it would not be too late to deal with her when she returned.

Shen Ke walked closer and asked again, "Mom, who made you angry?"

Just now on the road, Qiuyue only said that his mother asked her to find someone, and her words were vague. He only knew that someone had offended his mother, so he came over to take a look.

"Hmph, who else could it be?" Liu snorted and glanced at Xia Tian with her eyes slanted.

Shen Ke turned around, her tone somewhat angry, "Sister-in-law, are you the one who made mother angry?"

"Fourth brother, please don't make false accusations. Which eye of yours saw me making Madam angry?" Xia Tian looked at Shen Ke's annoying face and replied coldly.

"If not you, who else here is so brave?" Shen Ke asked in a bad tone.

"Fourth brother, you are wrongly accusing me. Isn't the madam angry because you and Qiuyue are together?" Xia Tian continued to talk nonsense.

"Me and Qiuyue? What's wrong with Qiuyue and I being together? There's no rule that says we can't come here together, right?" Shen Ke was a little confused. Was there anything wrong with him and Qiuyue coming here together?

Xia Tian suppressed his laughter and looked at Liu's increasingly gloomy face, adding fuel to the fire, "Madam, did you hear that? Fourth brother and Qiuyue are together.

No wonder such an unruly servant dares to speak to me, her master, like that. I teach her a lesson for the good of my lady.

If this girl isn't properly disciplined, who knows what outrageous things she'll do."

Xia Tian acted as if he was doing good for Liu, which made Liu feel as uncomfortable as if she had eaten a fly.

She also began to doubt whether Qiuyue had really seduced her son?

Shen Ke became even more confused by what Xia Tian said, and couldn't figure out the situation for a while.

I thought his mother was really angry with him.

"Mom! What's wrong with you?" Shen Ke asked anxiously when he saw that his mother didn't say anything and looked at him with a stern look.

"Shut up." Liu interrupted Shen Ke and no longer had the intention to teach Xia Tian a lesson.

With a snort, he said to Xia Tian, "I'll let you go for now today."

After saying that, he just turned around and left.

Seeing that his mother left without saying anything, Shen Ke hurriedly followed her.

After such a long period of rest, Shen Ke's legs have almost recovered, but he still cannot walk fast.

There's nothing wrong with walking slowly.

Maybe because he was young, he recovered well and didn’t become a cripple.

After seeing Liu leave, the others slowly got up and left, supporting each other.

Mu Feng looked at how their prince's wife diverted the conflict with just a few words, and felt like laughing.

"Madam, everyone has left, let's go back too."

"Well, thank you very much." Xia Tian thanked Mu Feng.

She called Mu Feng over because she was afraid that Liu would call the guards over. If someone was so blind as to listen to Liu's words and come to arrest her, she might not be able to escape.

Mu Feng is here to help her resist.

"You're welcome, ma'am." Mu Feng replied quickly.

Every time he came here, he could get to know his eldest son's wife again.

Mu Feng sent the three of them to the gate of Jinglan Garden and watched them go in before leaving.

He also needs to tell his master about this. The Liu family is becoming less and less restrained. He is afraid that if they are not around one day, his master's wife will suffer.

Liu returned to Huarui Hall in a huff.

After giving a good scolding to all the old women and maids who had embarrassed her today and fining them two months' salary, she finally calmed down a little.

Qiuyue and Shen Ke were called in again.

"Qiuyue, kneel down." Liu said sternly with a gloomy face, "Tell me, when did you start seducing the Fourth Young Master?"

Qiuyue was confused. When did she seduce the Fourth Young Master?

However, she did not dare to refute, and she knelt down and kowtowed before explaining, "Madam, I did not, I never seduced the Fourth Young Master."

Qiuyue finally realized that the ambiguous words the Crown Prince's wife had said just now were a trap for her!

Shen Ke finally understood why her mother was angry, and she was also a little unhappy. "Mom, you can't just believe everything your sister-in-law says? When did Qiuyue and I get together? How come I didn't know?"

When Liu heard that both of them denied it, she confirmed, "Really?"

"Really not. Mother, don't you know what kind of person Qiuyue is? She has always been by your side and served you diligently. How could you suspect her of seducing your son?"

Shen Ke's accusatory tone made Liu's anger, which had just subsided, rise again.

If it really didn't matter, why would he speak for Qiuyue?

But Shen Ke was his son, so it was hard to blame him. "Okay, I understand. You can go back first."

Shen Ke thought his mother no longer suspected him and Qiuyue, so he went back with peace of mind.

As soon as he left, Liu's face immediately darkened, "Qiuyue, go kneel in the yard."

Qiuyue felt a little aggrieved, but she didn't dare to argue for herself, so she could only kneel down in the yard obediently.

It's still a bit cold in February. Qiuyue had been punished to kneel for a long time by Xia Tian before, and now she was punished to kneel again. After a while, she felt that her legs were no longer her own.

The maids and servants who came in and out were so frightened that they dared not even breathe a word when they saw that even Qiuyue, the most capable girl by the lady's side, was punished by the lady and made to kneel.

Try to walk as far as possible.

Xia Tian returned to Jinglan Garden and was very happy at first, but then he thought that maybe he was too impulsive.

She had offended Liu quite badly today, so she had to be more careful in the future!

But since it has come to this, we can only take it one step at a time.
