The substitute prince: Reported the emperor's brother at the beginning

Ning Yi stepped into the backyard, and the Yang family maids saluted: "Greetings, Your Highness."

Ning Yi asked, "Where is the princess?"

The maids looked at each other and didn't dare to speak.

Ning Yi frowned: "Is there no one who can answer this question?"

"Or is it that your Highness's words are of no use?"

Several maids immediately knelt down and said, "Your Highness, please forgive me. I dare not do this."

"Then tell me." Ning Yi looked at them coldly.

Finally, a maid of higher status replied, "Your Highness, Miss, no, the prince's wife has returned to the Yang Mansion."

"Back to Yang's Mansion?" Ning Yi was surprised: "Going back to your mother's home, why is it necessary to be so secretive?"

"Answer honestly, what are you hiding from me? Otherwise, I will send you to a brothel."

This frightened the maids.

Although they grew up in the Yang family, they had married into the prince's mansion with the prince's wife, so they were naturally people of the prince's mansion.

The Sixth Prince could sell them out with just a few words.

“Your Highness, please forgive me. It was only because the Han family came to visit that the princess returned to the Yang Mansion.”

The Han family? Ning Yi wondered, could it be the Young Master Han that the people from the Yang residence mentioned last time, the one who had been Yang Ziqin's childhood sweetheart?

Could it be that this woman Yang Ziqin has been having an affair with another man without telling this prince?

Ning Yi's face was calm, but he was unhappy in his heart. He looked at the maids and said, "If you dare to hide anything from me again, I will sell you all out. Get out of here."

The maids retreated with a sense of relief.

Ning Yi thought about it and decided to go to Yang Mansion in person. If Yang Ziqin dared to do anything wrong, he would have to find that fat guy Yang Long to give an explanation.

......

In the Yang Mansion, Yang Long was sitting with a big belly, drinking and chatting happily with a burly man in his forties with dark skin who looked like he was always running around.

"Brother Han, you haven't been to the capital for a while. You should take a good rest while you are here."

Han Dingtian smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Yang, I also want to rest more, but the army is busy. This time I came to the capital, in addition to seeing the emperor, but I have something important to trouble you with."

Yang Long waved his hand and smiled nonchalantly, "We'll talk about this later. Now let's drink until we're drunk."

The Han family and the Yang family are old friends and have a very close relationship. One is the Minister of War in the capital, and the other is the commander-in-chief of the border army. They rely on each other, and their relationship is very strong.

Beside Han Dingtian, a young and handsome man kept glancing left and right at the children of the Yang family.

"Why didn't I see Qin'er?"

"Shixian, please stop addressing me like that." Han Dingtian frowned. "Qin'er is now the prince's consort, so you must not be disrespectful."

When this matter was mentioned, Han Dingtian felt unhappy.

The Han and Yang families had already arranged marriages for their children. Yang Ziqin, the eldest daughter of the Yang family, would marry Han Shixian of the Han family in the future.

Unexpectedly, the girl Yang Ziqin has now become the prince's consort.

Han Shixian felt even more aggrieved, his face looked very ugly, and he lowered his head and drank silently.

He was thinking about his childhood sweetheart Yang Ziqin day and night, but he didn't expect that he would come to Beijing to meet her soon.

His father actually told him that Yang Ziqin had gotten married half a year ago and married the Sixth Prince, a very dissolute prince in the capital.

This was a bolt from the blue for Han Shixian. He subconsciously imagined that his beloved Qin'er was waiting for him to marry her in the capital.

As a result, she was forced by the Yang family and the royal family, tied up and forced into the bridal sedan, and forced to marry in the hall.

With tears streaming down her face, she suffered great humiliation as she was abused and tortured by that bastard Sixth Prince.

The more Han Shixian thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt.

If it weren't for my father's persuasion along the way, a man would never have to worry about having a wife, and he shouldn't ruin things because of Yang Ziqin.

As soon as he entered the Yang family, he questioned the old man Yang Long, asking him why he arbitrarily changed his children's marriages.

"The princess has arrived."

At this moment, a servant happened to report loudly.

All the Yang family members, as well as Han Dingtian and Yang Long, stood up.

Even though Yang Ziqin is the daughter of the Yang family, she is now the prince's consort, so she still needs to stand up to greet him.

"Greetings, Princess." Everyone except Yang Long bowed slightly.

Yang Ziqin bowed slightly to Yang Long, whose chubby face was all smiles: "Greetings, father."

"Okay, okay, it's good that you're here. Please sit down, please sit down." Yang Long smiled and invited everyone to take a seat.

Yang Ziqin has an extraordinary identity and sits next to her father.

Everyone continued with the previous topic and didn't take Yang Ziqin too seriously.

Only Han Shixian, her ex-lover, kept staring at Yang Ziqin with a confused and reluctant look in his eyes.

Yang Ziqin now has a noble appearance, her hair is tied up and combed into a wedding style, and the golden phoenix pendant on her hair makes Han Shixian feel quite dazzling.

Seeing Yang Ziqin's expressionless face, Han Shixian became more certain that she must have suffered great humiliation in the prince's mansion, which was why she had such an attitude, which made Han Shixian feel extremely distressed.

After the banquet, Yang Long invited Han Dingtian to his study to reminisce about the past.

Yang Ziqin was about to leave with a blank expression, and Han Shixian finally couldn't help but stepped forward: "Qin'er."

Yang Ziqin looked at her former playmate, frowning slightly and taking a step back. "Brother Shixian, what else?"

Looking at my childhood sweetheart who used to talk to me about everything and was always by my side, I feel so distant from her now.

Han Shixian felt even more uncomfortable and said bitterly, "Qin'er, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Can we take a walk in the back garden together?"

Yang Ziqin thought about it and nodded slightly.

To her, Han Shixian was just an old friend and elder brother, but now that she was married, it was natural for her to keep some distance from him. It would be a good opportunity to explain this to him clearly to avoid any trouble in the future.

As the two of them walked side by side in the back garden, Han Shixian hesitated several times before finally forcing himself to ask, "Qin'er, are you doing well in the Prince's Mansion?"

This question reminded Yang Ziqin of the Sixth Prince who had been very cold to her recently, especially the last time he drove her away because of a brothel girl.

This made Yang Ziqin unhappy all day long in the backyard.

But when the words came to his lips, he said calmly: "It's fine, everything is fine, I don't worry about you, Brother Shixian."

Yang Ziqin's words made Han Shixian feel even more aggrieved.

"Qin'er, I've been missing you at the border for so long. Now that we finally meet, you've already married someone else. I know you must be suffering, right?"

Yang Ziqin frowned slightly, and she didn't know what to say to Han Shixian, who looked infatuated.

"Brother Shixian, please don't say that. Qin'er has always regarded you as her elder brother, and Qin'er is already married. It's better to be more cautious about some things."

"Qin'er didn't suffer much either. The Sixth Prince treated Qin'er very well."

Although Yang Ziqin is still dissatisfied with the Sixth Prince, the Sixth Prince has never abused her.

In the past, he treated her very lovingly as a couple, but recently, because there were so many prostitutes around, he knew he would deal with her sooner or later.
