After traveling through time, the adults were completely in my hands
Chapter 25 Grounded
At the Pei Mansion, as soon as Jindou finished speaking, Pei Shaofeng became unhappy: "Jindou, I have repeatedly asked you to stay at the General's Mansion. What's the matter? Lord Wei can be your breadwinner, but I can't?"
"Well deserved, well deserved!" Oh my god, we can't afford to offend this arrogant little general.
Jindou thought to himself and quickly changed the subject: "General Pei, please try the longevity noodles I made for you."
Jindou handed the bowl to Pei Shaofeng. Pei Shaofeng took it and saw that the noodles in the bowl were crystal clear, with a fried golden egg on top and tender green onions sprinkled around it. It looked very appetizing.
Pei Shaofeng felt his stomach growl as he smelled the aroma wafting from the bowl. He picked up his chopsticks and was about to eat when Jindou hurriedly called him, "General Pei, close your eyes and make a wish first!"
"Okay," Pei Shaofeng agreed and closed his eyes.
Seeing Pei Shaofeng finish his wish and open his eyes, Jindou said happily again: "General Pei, let me sing a birthday song for you!"
"Birthday song? Great!" Pei Shaofeng had never heard anyone sing a birthday song before, and his face was full of anticipation. Wei Qing couldn't help but cast his gaze on the golden bean at this time.
"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you..." Jindou clapped his hands, looked at Pei Shaofeng with bright eyes and sang.
Looking at Jindou's bright smile, Wei Qing felt that his heart, which had just calmed down, seemed to be touched by something.
Thinking of what Pei Shaofeng said just now, Wei Qing couldn't help but look at Pei Shaofeng. Sure enough, he saw that Pei Shaofeng had a dazed expression on his face and was staring at the golden beans with his eyes wide open. Wei Qing felt confused for a moment and couldn't tell what he felt.

A few days later, on the streets of the capital, Princess Fengyang, wearing a veil on her head, was accompanied by Qingyan and two other palace maids, walking towards a restaurant called Tianxiangju.
Princess Qingyan said as they walked, "When you hear me slamming a cup outside, come in immediately and do as I tell you. Remember that?"
"Yes, I'll remember that," Qingyan replied helplessly. She felt that her princess was simply crazy to do such a thing.
Princess Fengyang walked forward with a gloomy face. She had already made a plan. This time, she would trick Wei Qing into the restaurant. If Wei Qing agreed to ask her father to marry her, everything would be fine.
If he refused, she would hug Wei Qing and use the drop of the cup as a signal. Then Qingyan would lead two palace maids to rush in and say that Wei Qing wanted to do something bad to her. She would only give Wei Qing two options: either go to the palace and ask the emperor to marry her, or wait to be disgraced and stripped of his official position and title.
Although if she did so, her reputation would be ruined if Wei Qing really didn't agree, she didn't have time to think too much about it at the moment.
“Wei Qing, you’d better agree to this, or we’ll be in a fight to the death!” Princess Fengyang’s face was filled with stern determination.
At the Jinyiwei office, Xie Xiaohu knocked on the door and entered the meeting room. He handed a note to Wei Qing: "Sir, there was a little beggar outside just now. He asked me to give this to you."
Wei Qing opened the note, which told him to go to Tianxiang Restaurant and told him something important to tell him, and repeatedly reminded him to go alone.
"Sir, what's written?" Xie Xiaohu asked when he saw Wei Qing staring at the note without saying a word.
Wei Qing placed the note on the table. Xie Xiaohu leaned over to take a look. "Sir, what's going on? What shameful thing is going on that requires you to go alone?"
Wei Qing didn't know what was going on for a moment. After thinking about it, he decided to go over and take a look.
In front of the Tianxiang Restaurant, Wei Qing got off his horse and was about to go in when he saw a figure hurriedly going up the stairs. Wei Qing felt that the man's back seemed familiar. After thinking for a while, Wei Qing withdrew his steps and got on his horse again to leave.
"Princess, we're here. Lord Wei is here!" Qingyan hurried upstairs, knocked on one of the doors, and said to Princess Fengyang inside with a slightly trembling voice.
Princess Fengyang was still wearing a veil on her head and was standing with her back to the room. After hearing what Qingyan said, she clasped her hands together tightly and said calmly, "Okay, go out and hide first, and we'll act according to the plan later!"
Qingyan took the other two palace maids and hurriedly hid in the room next to Princess Fengyang. After Wei Qing went in, they acted according to the plan. However, the strange thing was that she had just seen Lord Wei riding a horse to the door of the restaurant, but she waited and waited, but she did not hear the sound of anyone going upstairs.
Afraid that Princess Fengyang would be anxious waiting, Qingyan was about to go out to check when she heard a sudden commotion downstairs, followed by the sound of many footsteps coming up the stairs. Before she could react, the door was kicked open with a bang.
"The Jinyiwei are investigating the case. No one is allowed to move!" a Jinyiwei shouted loudly.
Qingyan had a bad feeling and was about to rush out, but Xie Xiaohu had already kicked open the door of the next room.
"Jinyiwei, arrest the fugitive. Take off the veil on his head and check it!" Xie Xiaohu shouted to the people in the room.
Princess Fengyang stood on the ground, not taking off her veil. She twisted her handkerchief tightly with both hands and said, "Call your commander here. I want to see him!"
"Hey! You can see the commander whenever you want. Take off the veil quickly! You are delaying the Jinyiwei's investigation. Be careful, or they will put you in jail soon!" Xie Xiaohu shouted.
"How dare you! Do you know who this is?" Qingyan rushed over, protecting Princess Fengyang and shouting, "Hurry up and retreat! Be careful not to anger the noble lady or I'll punish you for insubordination!"
"Sir, which sir? Tell me your name immediately. If you don't, I will take you away as a suspect!"
Qingyan glanced at Princess Fengyang and whispered, "This is Princess Fengyang, you must not be rude!"
"Princess Fengyang?" Xie Xiaohu waved his hand. "Princess Fengyang is in the palace, how could she appear here? You are impersonating royal relatives, your crime is even greater. Come, take her away!"
******
In the palace, Wei Qing knelt on the ground and bowed to Emperor Qingyuan, saying, "Your Majesty, today the Jinyiwei were apprehending a fugitive at the Tianxiang Restaurant, but for some reason, Princess Fengyang was there. The Jinyiwei didn't recognize Princess Fengyang and mistakenly took her away, frightening her. Please punish them, Your Majesty!"
"I already know about this matter. Ignorance is not a crime. Please don't punish me." Emperor Qingyuan waved his hand.
After Wei Qing left, Emperor Qingyuan was furious: "Come here, pass on my decree. Princess Fengyang is confined to Changle Palace. Without my permission, she is not allowed to leave the palace!"
******
In Changle Palace, Princess Fengyang went crazy and swept everything on the table to the ground with her arms. The palace maids beside her were so scared that they trembled and stood aside without daring to breathe.
"Wei Qing, I am sincere to you, but I didn't expect you to treat me like this!" Princess Fengyang sat down on the ground limply.
"Princess, no, be careful not to hurt your body!" Qingyan was shocked to see Princess Fengyang sitting on the ground. She hurriedly supported Princess Fengyang and shouted to the standing palace maid, "Come and help the princess up!"
The palace maids nearby had already been frightened by Princess Fengyang's crazy appearance and were stunned. When they heard Qingyan's cry, they finally reacted and ran over together to help Princess Fengyang onto the couch.
