When Chang saw that it was Ye Ling who had returned from the morning court, she ran to his side crying, "Master, you are finally back. If you hadn't come back, Rou'er and I would have been bullied to death by this unfilial daughter."

Ye Lingnan patted Chang's hand, signaling her to calm down: "Leave this matter to me."

After saying that, Ye Lingnan walked up to Ye Xinrou with a gloomy face, helped Ye Xinrou up, and looked at her face which was red from being beaten by Ye Chuxue, and suddenly felt distressed.

Ye Lingnan walked to Ye Chuxue, raised his hand and was about to hit her in the face, but Ye Chuxue grabbed his hand.

He glared at Ye Chuxue in frustration, "You're so bold! What? After being a princess for a few days, you don't even recognize your own parents? You come to your own home to show off your power?"

Ye Chuxue sneered, "Prime Minister, you have such great authority, and you just come up and beat people without knowing the truth? Why don't you understand the situation first? Do you think that people in your Prime Minister's Mansion are not responsible if they break the law?"

Ye Lingnan's face flushed at what she said. He looked at Chang and asked coldly, "Tell me what happened?"

Chang glared at Ye Chuxue unhappily and evaded the main point by telling the story. She said that Ye Xinrou had made a mistake because she was deceived by a maid, and that Ye Chuxue was an unreasonable person.

After listening to what Chang said, Ye Chuxue sneered in her heart. These were the original owner's biological parents. Sometimes she really doubted whether the original owner was picked up by them. Why was she so unwelcome?

Ye Chuxue sneered, clapped her hands and said, "The Prime Minister's wife is really eloquent. Even if the idea came from the maid, who made the decision? Who paid for it? Was she deceived? How? She's already grown up, is she brainless, or is she just idiotic?

Also, you said I was unreasonable. Haha, my child was almost hurt. Can't I seek justice for my child? "

Ye Lingnan frowned and scolded, "Alright, your two children are fine, aren't they? You've already made a fuss and hit them, what else do you want?"

"Haha, what do I want? I want an explanation from your Prime Minister's Mansion! I want Ye Xinrou to apologize!"

Ye Xinrou looked at her fiercely: "You're dreaming! Why should I apologize to you? Instead, you should apologize to me!"

"Oh? I apologized to you? I gave you face?"

"You! If it weren't for you, would I have been able to endure these twenty lashes?" Ye Xinrou roared almost crazily.

"You deserve it! If you don't want to apologize, then go to the palace and ask the emperor for justice! You privately hired someone to kidnap a royal descendant. Let's see if you and the Prime Minister's Mansion can bear the consequences!" Ye Chuxue looked at Ye Xinrou with disdain and said in a cold voice.

Ye Lingnan was suddenly shocked and was so angry that he forgot that the two children Ye Chuxue gave birth to were actually the emperor's grandson and granddaughter.

You must know that although Yun Muheng ranks fifth, the previous princes are either unmarried or have no children.

Now that it has been confirmed that the two children are indeed the offspring of Prince Yunxin, they must be the emperor's eldest grandson and granddaughter, who are as precious as the apple of his eye. If the emperor knew about this, he would surely be furious, and the Prime Minister's Mansion would be implicated.

Ye Lingnan coughed lightly and touched his nose to hide his inner embarrassment, and said in a slower tone: "Xue'er, you see, we are all family, why bother about it? The emperor is so busy, so don't bother him.

"Rou'er is indeed at fault this time. Therefore, as your father, I will punish Rou'er by confining her to her home for a month and making her copy the "Women's Virtues" three hundred times. At the same time, the Prime Minister's Office will give her two thousand taels of silver as compensation for my two little grandchildren. What do you think?"

Ye Chuxue glanced at Ye Xinrou indifferently without saying anything.

The Prime Minister glanced at Ye Chuxue and suddenly realized what was going on. He said sternly, "Rou'er, why don't you apologize quickly? And give her the jade pendant you promised your sister."

Ye Xinrou glanced at Ye Chuxue with resentment in her eyes. Coincidentally, she had just put on the jade pendant when she went out. She reluctantly took it off and handed it to Ye Chuxue.

She said unconvincedly, "I have already done what happened with the jade pendant, but I apologized. I am not wrong! She is the one who is wrong. If she hadn't asked the emperor to beat me with twenty boards, would I have listened to the maid and taken revenge on her?

So it was his own fault! Don't blame me, it's all my fault for not hiring the right people. I fell into Ye Chuxue's hands. I just consider myself unlucky."

Ye Lingnan was so angry that he looked at Ye Xinrou with his eyes wide open. He raised his hand and was about to slap her in the face.

At this critical moment, Yun Muheng's furious voice came from the direction of the door: "Stop!"

Ye Lingnan was so frightened by the roar that he froze. He watched Yun Muheng walk over quickly, take the jade pendant from Ye Chuxue's hand, and examine it repeatedly with excitement.

Then, with ecstasy in his eyes, he quickly grabbed Ye Xinrou and asked, "Is this jade pendant yours?"

Ye Xinrou was bewildered by his action and nodded subconsciously: "Yes, Your Majesty, this is mine."

Ye Chuxue raised an eyebrow and looked at Ye Xinrou, thinking secretly in her heart: This person is so shameless, this jade pendant is obviously mine, but it was snatched away by Ye Xinrou before. However, looking at Yun Muheng's reaction, it seems that this jade pendant is very important to him. No matter what, let's see what the situation is first. If it's something bad, Ye Xinrou can be a shield.

Yun Muheng clutched the jade pendant tightly and murmured to himself, "Great, I finally found you."

Somehow, Yun Muheng was subconsciously unhappy. He didn't want the person who had always lived in his heart to be Ye Xinrou.

Yun Muheng looked at Ye Xinrou with a firm gaze and said, "Don't worry, I will fulfill my promise and take good care of you."

Ye Xinrou looked at Yun Muheng in confusion, her heart mad with jealousy towards Ye Chuxue. She wondered: What happened between her and Prince Yun Xin? How could she be so lucky to have received Prince Yun Xin's promise so early?

Yun Muheng saw that she looked dazed and thought that she was worried that Ye Chuxue would cause trouble for her.

He walked over to Ye Chuxue and said to her, "Let's just leave this matter at that. The Prime Minister has punished Xinrou, and she has learned her lesson. Let's forgive her when we can."

Ye Chuxue looked at him in disbelief: "She wants to hurt your son and daughter, and you actually want to let it go like this?"

Yun Muheng whispered, "There's nothing wrong with the two children. I owe Xinrou this too. Just give her a chance and let this matter end here."

Ye Chuxue was so angry that she almost exploded. She glared at Yun Muheng fiercely and said, "Whatever you want! But don't regret it!"

After saying that, Ye Chuxue walked out angrily.

Ye Xinrou was extremely shocked and became more and more confused about what had happened between Ye Chuxue and Yun Muheng in the past that could make Yun Muheng compromise to such an extent.

However, what Ye Xinrou is more worried about now is that if Yun Muheng knows that she snatched this jade pendant from Ye Chuxue, she will die miserably!

She thought secretly, "No, I must know what happened between them. Otherwise, sooner or later it will be exposed, and then I will be in trouble.

Yun Muheng looked at the direction where Ye Chuxue left, his heart full of mixed feelings. He found that he didn't want to have too much contact with Ye Xinrou. Ye Xinrou saved him as a child, and he couldn't help but repay her.
