The prince kneels every day. Has the princess forgiven him today?

Song Wenyi rushed in hurriedly, his official hat tilted all over the place.

He saw his daughter's weak figure surrounded by a group of guards, and anger appeared on his usually elegant face.

"What are you doing?!"

Song Xiwan looked up when he heard the voice, his eyes welling up with tears.

It’s great that my father is still the high-spirited Lord Song at this time.

Song Lingxi's expression changed slightly, and she hurried forward to explain, "Uncle, grandma was just worried that I asked a few more questions, but she didn't expect my sister to use the whip. Grandma is old and couldn't stand such a shock, so she sent the guards out."

Song Wenyi's anger subsided and he looked a little stunned.

My daughter also knows martial arts?

The old lady pointed at the whip marks on the ground and scolded him harshly, "Look for yourself. How can she even regard me as her grandmother? How can the eldest daughter of the Song family be so unruly and rude? How can this be tolerated if it gets out?"

Song Wenyi looked down at the deeply embedded mark, his eyelids twitched slightly, and he tilted his head to look at Xi Wan.

"Did you hit?"

"Yes, Lingxi invited me to go on a boat trip today. I accidentally fell into the water and was rescued by Master Zhang. We had a physical relationship. Grandmother felt that I failed to protect Lingxi and wanted to punish me. I refused to accept the punishment, so I had to protect myself."

Song Xiwan stated the facts calmly.

The old lady and Song Lingxi's expressions changed. It sounded like they were wrongly accusing her!

"I'm punishing you for disrespecting your elders. How dare you confuse right and wrong here?"

The old lady is used to holding a high position in this mansion, and her son usually respects her in every way. How could he stop her from teaching a younger person a lesson?

Unexpectedly, Song Wenyi actually stood in front of Song Xiwan with an unhappy look on his face.

"Mother, Xiwan has been living outside for many years and has suffered so much. If she were really as delicate as the noble ladies in the capital, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to see her! Can't you be more tolerant of her?"

The old lady was so angry that she almost vomited blood. "Are you saying that I'm targeting her?"

Is this still her son who has been particularly particular about laws and etiquette since childhood?

Song Wenyi frowned, "Son just hopes that mother won't ask Xiwan to follow the rules of a lady from a noble family. Besides, if Lingxi can't take care of herself, it should be Lingxi's own responsibility."

Song Lingxi's expression instantly became panic. How could her uncle say that to her?

"Great uncle..."

"As for the Zhang family, I'll come and thank them another day."

Song Wenyi interrupted coldly, and then took Song Xiwan away.

Song Lingxi looked at the two people's backs as they walked away, and she was so angry that she wanted to tear her handkerchief into pieces.

Song Wenyi first sent his daughter back to Xingyue Pavilion, and then prepared to go back to Dali Temple to handle official business. Before leaving, he quietly wiped his tears with his sleeve.

"Dad is useless and has made you suffer."

Song Xiwan felt a sharp pain in her heart and shook her head, "No, didn't Dad come back?"

In her previous life, she believed Song Lingxi's instigation and thought that her parents took her back only out of guilt, and she was very disgusted with her.

Until the moment of life and death, her father and elder brother sacrificed their lives to give her a chance of survival.

Only then did Song Xiwan realize how wrong she was!

"Xi Wan, if anyone bullies you again, just send someone to tell Dad. Don't do it yourself. It would be terrible if you get hurt."

Song Wenyi felt so warmed by his daughter's thoughtfulness.

Song Xiwan smiled lightly and said, "Don't worry, Dad. I can protect myself."

The days after marrying Xie Chengqian were like being a widow. She studied literature and practiced martial arts day and night, waiting for the opportunity to take revenge. She was no longer the reckless person who had just arrived in Shangjing.

Song Wenyi just thought that his daughter had learned martial arts for self-protection, and he felt particularly uncomfortable.

"Xiwan, don't worry about what others say. Dad only hopes that you will live a happy and peaceful life."

Song Xiwan was shocked.

In her previous life, before her father was beheaded, she went to visit him in prison, and these were the last words his father said.

"I will."

After watching his father leave, a cold light flashed in Song Xiwan's eyes.

At this time in my previous life, my father was investigating a case of leaked border war reports and caught a spy who was suspected to be from the Cang Kingdom.

This person often traveled around the capital in the name of a businessman, made friends with many officials in the court, and then sent out intelligence one by one.

Although we won the battle with Cang State last month, we suffered heavy casualties and the spies lurking in Shangjing were exposed.

The emperor was furious and ordered a thorough investigation.

The Dali Temple was in charge of this case, but who would have thought that the spy from Cang State had escaped from prison and disappeared. Even the second uncle came forward to testify that it was my father who was in collusion with the spy from Cang State.

In the end, my father was beheaded in the autumn. My second uncle Song Kangwen was rewarded for reporting the incident and the second family escaped. He then had a smooth career and rose to prominence.

How ridiculous!

……

The next day.

When Song Xiwan woke up, she vaguely heard her mother's voice coming from outside the door.

She didn't even have time to wash and put on makeup. She hurriedly opened the door, and when she saw her gentle and kind mother, her eyes became slightly moist again.

"Xi Wan..."

Hearing the voice, Xu looked over and was about to say something.

Unexpectedly, Song Xiwan ran over in just two or three steps and hugged her.

"Mother, I miss you."

Mrs. Xu was full of surprise. She had always been very distant from her daughter since she came back. What happened today?

Because of what happened yesterday?

Xu was heartbroken when she thought about it. "Don't be afraid. Mother is here. I should have sent more people to accompany you on the boat trip yesterday. Otherwise, these things wouldn't have happened."

"How can we prevent accidents? Didn't Mother say she wouldn't be back until the afternoon?"

Song Xiwan felt much more comfortable when she smelled the faint fragrance on A Niang's body.

Xu patted her back gently and said, "I heard that something happened to you and Lingxi. I couldn't stay any longer, so I came back early."

Song Xiwan pushed A Niang away, his eyes lingering on her face.

A'niang was once a beautiful and talented woman in the capital, but after she went missing, she was overly worried every day.

Now, she is less than forty years old, but her black hair is mixed with a few strands of silver, and her health has also suffered from many problems.

In the previous life, after my father was beheaded, my mother also fell seriously ill and died.

Song Xiwan hooked her hand and said, "It's just a small matter, mother, don't worry. I heard yesterday that the great doctor Xu will be returning to the capital in a few days. Why don't you ask him to come and see you?"

Xu looked surprised. Why hadn't she heard that Doctor Xu was coming to Beijing?

"Even if I could really see this Divine Doctor Xu, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to treat me."

It is said that when Concubine Hua was seriously ill, the emperor could not invite her even if he offered her ten thousand taels of gold.

"Nothing is absolute in this world. Auntie, you are a lucky person. Maybe Dr. Xu will be willing to treat you."

After all, in this life, Song Xiwan knew what Doctor Xu came to Beijing for.

She won't allow her mother to die of illness again!

"Okay, okay, when the time comes, Mother will definitely prepare a generous gift to invite Divine Doctor Xu. By the way, have you chosen your clothes for the palace banquet?"

Xu was particularly touched by her daughter's thoughtfulness, and asked carefully about the palace banquet.

The rumors in Beijing recently were unbearable to hear, and she was afraid that Xi Wan was worried.

This was the first time that Song Xiwan appeared among the royal family and nobles in Shangjing. In her previous life, she had received countless contemptuous and sarcastic looks as soon as she appeared.

But this time is different!

If she wants to protect her father, mother and elder brother, she must gain a firm foothold in Shangjing.

Besides, Song Lingxi has prepared a big show for her tonight.
