At this time, Shangguan Yue came over anxiously. His hair was disheveled, his clothes were tattered, his body was scratched and there was no visible skin left. There were bloodstains everywhere.

He saw Shangguan Qing looking at him with a smile, and he shouted angrily: "Shangguan Qing, why didn't you tell me when you became the Regent Princess!"

When Shangguan Qing heard this, she was secretly happy. She knew that it must be Murong Bai who spread the news.

Then, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a smug smile.

Seeing that she was silent, Shangguan Yue softened her tone and said, "Qing'er, look at your uncle's body, it's itchy all over. Can you..."

Shangguan Qing pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Uncle, what does your itching have to do with me? You should go see a doctor right away."

Shangguan Yue took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, and then slowly said, "Qing'er, Second Uncle really meant well yesterday. He just wanted to come and see if you were safe here."

Shangguan Qing nodded to show his understanding, but still pretended to be dumb and replied, "Thank you for your concern, uncle. But since you are fine, you should go see a doctor as soon as possible."

However, at this moment, Yumei suddenly went crazy, pointing at Shangguan Qing and shouting, "It's obvious that you poisoned them! Why are all the people who came here yesterday itchy all over and scratching themselves to death now?"

She kept scratching her body while shouting, looking very painful. Shangguan Qing knew that it was a cross infection, and he was very happy in his heart. The rash and scratches on Yumei must be very beautiful.

Shangguan Qing nodded and asked curiously, "Second Aunt, you're so strange. Does this have anything to do with me? I don't know. Maybe these people have done something wrong and are being punished by God. Second Uncle promised yesterday to return all my parents' things to me. Let's go and prepare."

Shangguan Qingcheng immediately became furious when she heard this. "Shangguan Qing, your parents' things have all been thrown away. There's nothing left of yours in this mansion. You'd better leave as soon as possible and stop daydreaming."

Shangguan Qing burst into laughter. "Shangguan Qingcheng, what are you talking about? You want me to leave? Do you know where this is? I'm telling you, this is the General's Mansion."

Shangguan Qingcheng finally reacted and whispered, "So what? Mother is the one who runs the household now, and father is the one who maintains the household expenses. What can you do?"

Shangguan Qing was not polite at all. "Haha, that's great. This is my home. Your mother should go and take care of your own home. Uncle and Aunt, please tidy up as soon as possible. I will come to inspect it the day after tomorrow."

At this moment, Shangguan Yue finally couldn't help it. He shouted angrily: "Shangguan Qing, you'd better face reality! What do you think a regent can do to me? He has no power in his hands now. Even if you are the princess, you have to act according to my will!"

However, just as he finished speaking, a deep and majestic male voice came from a distance: "Oh, really? I don't know when I will have to look at Lord Shangguan's face again? Why don't we go to the emperor and sort it out now?"

As the voice fell, everyone turned their heads and saw a man in a black robe with a stern face slowly walking towards them.

The person who came was Murong Bai, and his appearance made the whole scene tense in an instant.

When Shangguan Yue saw him, her face immediately turned pale as paper, her legs trembling uncontrollably, and she finally knelt down, stammering, "Your Highness, Your Highness, no...no, I was just joking with my niece."

When Shangguan Qing saw this scene, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile.

She looked at Shangguan Yue coldly and said mercilessly, "Second Uncle, you didn't look like you were joking just now. But I've always been a generous person. I'm only concerned about my parents' property right now. As long as Second Uncle and Second Aunt can sort these things out, that's all that's needed."

Hearing Shangguan Qing say this, Yumei's face was obviously a little flustered, but she quickly regained her composure and laughed triumphantly: "Haha, you say she is the princess, right? We haven't received any imperial edict."

Her words were full of provocation and disdain.

However, Shangguan Qingcheng's expression was clearly not looking good. Shangguan Qing looked at Yumei complacently and said, "It's understandable that Second Aunt didn't know. My dear Second Sister knows everything. What's more important is that my Second Sister was the one who facilitated this matter."

Shangguan Qingcheng's expression turned even uglier as she gritted her teeth and said, "Shangguan Qing, you're not stupid. You're not stupid at all, are you? You've been setting us up again and again. Not only can you cancel the engagement and get compensation from the Crown Prince, then marry the Regent smoothly, and even gain the right to marry freely without permission."

Shangguan Qing was very proud, thinking that he was really very wise at that time. He said softly, "I never said I was stupid, it's you who always think I am stupid."

Yumei was already very upset at this point, muttering, "Impossible, absolutely impossible, how could this happen? I should have been stunned."

Shangguan Qing chuckled softly, "I'd love to clear up Second Aunt's confusion. Are you talking about the poison that makes people stupid, or the medicine that whets their appetite?"

Yumei stepped back in panic, "Ah, it's you, isn't it? What did you do to me? No, I don't want to become stupid, I don't want to become fat."

Shangguan Qingcheng was also very scared. She forced a smile and bowed to Murong Bai, "I wonder if Your Highness could ask the doctor who treated my sister to see me."

Murong Bai quickly understood and taunted, "She is my princess, so I can naturally send someone to see her, but why would I want someone to see you?"

Just when Shangguan Qing thought Shangguan Qingcheng had given up, she tugged at Murong Bai's clothes and said, "If the prince is willing, I can also be the regent princess. I believe I am more suitable than my sister."

Shangguan Qing was almost dying of laughter at this white lotus. How shameless was he to poach someone in public? She looked at Murong Bai with amusement.

At this moment, the man's brows were tightly knitted, his face icy cold. It seemed as if an inner force had directly shaken Shangguan Qingcheng away. At the same time, the man drew his sword and cut off the part where Shangguan Qingcheng had just pulled. He only said one word, "Dirty."

The word was not very hurtful, but extremely insulting. No, it was very hurtful, because Shangguan Qingcheng didn't know whether she was hurt by the shock or angry, she spat out blood and fainted.

Shangguan Yue was stunned with fear, and dared not say a word as she looked at her daughter. To be honest, Shangguan Qing looked down upon this kind of man, and his contempt was evident.

"This is really boring. I won't be able to continue like this. Let's leave it like this for now."

After hearing this, Murong Bai's expression softened slightly and he nodded in agreement: "Okay."
