The Lord God is kneeling on the washboard again

The Queen Mother was dignified yet kind. She looked at little Kexin and little Muhan, smiled kindly, and said, "They must be the children of the Sun and Moon Palace Master and the Regent."

The Queen Mother's gaze was gentle and warm, falling on the two children like the warm sunshine of spring. Little Kexin blinked her large eyes and timidly hid behind Yun Mohan, only half of her head sticking out. Little Muhan seemed braver. She took a small step forward, bowed slightly, and replied crisply, "Yes, Queen Mother."

The Queen Mother nodded slightly, her eyes full of fondness: "They are two really well-behaved and clever children. They are so handsome and will surely be extraordinary when they grow up." As she spoke, she winked at the palace maid beside her. The palace maid immediately understood and presented two exquisite brocade boxes.

The Queen Mother personally picked up the brocade box and handed it to Xiao Kexin and Xiao Muhan: "This is a gift from my family for you. Take it and play with it."

Yun Mohan and Xing Xuanli hurriedly brought their children to express their gratitude. The Queen Mother waved her hand, her eyes never leaving the two children, her smile growing ever more benevolent. "Everyone, get up! Today is my birthday, and it's my blessing to see such adorable children like you."

Everyone around echoed the Queen Mother's words, praising the two children endlessly. Little Kexin and Little Muhan, clutching the brocade box, their faces filled with innocent smiles, adding a touch of warmth and joy to the solemn birthday banquet.

Princess Three, your grandson is here to wish you a happy birthday and a long life.

The Third Princess, dressed in a gorgeous pink palace gown with delicate floral and bird designs embroidered on the hem and crowned with dazzling pearls and jadeite, walked gracefully before the Queen Mother and bowed gracefully. Her voice was clear and melodious, like the sound of a yellow oriole singing in a valley, her face brimming with a sweet smile, her eyes filled with reverence and love for the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother's face was filled with joy. She reached out and helped the Third Princess up, saying lovingly, "My dear granddaughter, get up quickly."

The third princess stood up and leaned against the Queen Mother, saying coquettishly, "Grandmother, I have specially prepared a gift for you. I hope you like it."

The Queen Mother smiled and asked, "Oh? What gift is it? Let me see it."

The third princess clapped her hands, and the palace maids presented her with an exquisite embroidery. It was a portrait of the empress dowager, lifelike and delicate, clearly a work of great care and thought.

The Queen Mother carefully examined the embroidery, her eyes filled with surprise and emotion: "Good child, this gift is really thoughtful."

The third princess said coquettishly, "As long as the Imperial Grandmother is happy, whatever my grandson does is worth it."

Seeing this, everyone in the palace praised the Third Princess for her filial piety and understanding. The Queen Mother hugged the Third Princess, smiling from ear to ear, and the atmosphere of the entire birthday banquet became even more warm and peaceful.

Little Mu Han looked at the Third Princess, tugged at the corner of Xing Xuanli's clothes, and whispered, "Mother, isn't this Third Princess the arrogant and domineering woman back then?"

Yun Mohan (Nangong Han) frowned slightly when he heard his son's words and asked with concern, "What's the matter, Li'er? Do you have a grudge against her?"

It’s nothing, Xing Xuanli said calmly, “When I brought little Mu Han back to the capital, there was a little rift between me and the Third Princess.”

Yun Mohan's eyes grew deep. He looked at Xing Xuanli with concern in his tone, "Li'er, what exactly is the estrangement? Please tell me in detail. Don't hide it from me."

Little Mu Han told Yun Mo Han (Nangong Han) the whole story and said angrily, "Daddy, she was riding a horse in the street and almost hit a pedestrian. I stopped her carriage, but she actually wanted to kill someone."

Yun Mohan's face instantly turned ashen, his eyes flashing with anger: "This is simply lawless!"

Xiao Muhan continued, "After I stopped the carriage, the Third Princess poked her head out and yelled at my mother and me, saying we were being reckless and daring to stop her carriage. My mother tried to persuade her to be careful about pedestrians, but she completely ignored me and even ordered the guards to attack us."

Yun Mohan clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white. "This evil woman is so arrogant and domineering, she doesn't take human life seriously!"

Little Mu Han's eyes widened, filled with anger and fear. "Daddy, those guards were so ferocious. If I hadn't reacted quickly and pulled Mom to hide aside, we might have been hurt by them. The Third Princess even shouted that she wanted to kill us. It was so terrifying."

Yun Mohan held little Muhan tightly in his arms and comforted him, "Don't be afraid, son. Daddy is here and will not let this happen again. She will be punished for being so arrogant."

Little Mu Han nodded in Yun Mo Han's arms, his voice choked with sobs: "Daddy, I believe you."

At this moment, Yun Mohan secretly swore in his heart that he must seek justice for his wife and children and never let such evil people go unpunished.

Yun Mohan (Nangong Han) looked at Xing Xuanli and said solemnly, "Li'er, this third princess is named Xuanyin. She and Prince Xiao, Xuanxiao, are from the same mother and are the daughter of Concubine Li."

Xing Xuanli frowned slightly and said, "No wonder he's so domineering. It turns out he has such a background."

Yun Mohan (Nangong Han): Even Emperor Nanyuan respects your husband a bit, yet he still doesn't even take a mere concubine's daughter seriously. Li'er! Furthermore, you're the Palace Master of the top-ranked sect in the martial arts world. How could you be afraid of a mere princess? Just go ahead and do it. Your husband will take the brunt of any consequences.

Xing Xuanli felt a surge of warmth in her heart after hearing Yun Mohan's words, and her initial worries dissipated a lot. She looked up at Yun Mohan, her eyes filled with emotion and determination: "Husband, with your words, Li'er is not afraid of anything anymore."

Yun Mohan smiled slightly and held Xing Xuanli's hand tightly. "Li'er, you shouldn't have suffered this injustice. If the Third Princess dares to cause trouble again, there's no need to tolerate her."

Little Mu Han also puffed out her chest and said, "Mom, I will support you too!"

Xing Xuanli patted Xiao Muhan's head, and then said to Yun Mohan: "Don't worry, my husband. Li'er knows her limits. I just don't want to cause trouble for you."

Yun Mohan said loudly, "Li'er, don't say such inappropriate words. I, Yun Mohan's wife and children, will not allow others to bully them at will."

The three members of the family held each other's hands tightly. In this seemingly prosperous but dangerous palace, they relied on each other and were fearless.

The third princess, Xuanyin, stared intently at Yun Mohan (Nangong Han). Five years ago, she had confessed her feelings to him, but he had ruthlessly rejected her. She had even reported this to her father, who was furious and confined her to his own palace for three months.

Xuanyin's eyes were filled with resentment and resentment. Recalling the scene five years ago, the rage within her was reignited. Back then, with the shyness and anticipation of a young girl, she had mustered the courage to pour out her heart to Yun Mohan, believing that her status and beauty would win his heart. Unexpectedly, Yun Mohan not only rejected her without hesitation, but also ruthlessly reported the incident to his father.

Xuanyin felt immensely humiliated when she recalled the days of house arrest. For three months, she had been trapped in the palace, unable to leave. She cried every day, and her resentment towards Yun Mohan grew deeper and deeper. She couldn't understand what was wrong with her, and why Yun Mohan was so determined.

Seeing Yun Mohan again, the pain and resentment that had been buried deep within her heart suddenly surged back to her. Xuanyin secretly vowed to make Yun Mohan pay for what he had done back then.

Now she has married her archenemy and has a pair of adorable children.

Xuanyin's eyes grew increasingly sinister as she stared intently at Yun Mohan and Xing Xuanli, her teeth chattering. She could never have imagined that after rejecting her, Yun Mohan would actually marry Xing Xuanli, the woman she had always considered a thorn in her side, and that they would have a son and a daughter, living a happy and fulfilling life.

Every time she thought of this, Xuanyin's jealousy burned more fiercely. She felt that fate was too unfair to her. As a noble princess, she couldn't get the favor of her beloved, while Xing Xuanli, the person she hated with all her heart, could have Yun Mohan's love and care.

Watching the passionate love between Yun Mohan and Xing Xuanli, and the warm scene with Xiao Muhan and Xiao Kexin surrounding them, Xuanyin felt it was all incredibly glaring. She cursed silently in her heart, wishing that this seemingly beautiful scene would soon be shattered. She wanted to make Yun Mohan and Xing Xuanli also taste the pain and despair.

Xuanyin's hands were tightly clenched around the corners of her clothes, her knuckles turning white from the force. Her breathing became rapid, her heart filled with resentment, and she had already lost her mind.
