“This voice is…” Xia Yuqing, together with the people on the side, was stunned. All their eyes moved from Xia Muyun to the source of the sound. 

At the end of the palace road, a lovely woman in a yellow gauze skirt stared murderously at the entangled Xia Muyun and He Wenzhong. She walked over angrily. 

“Xiao Xi!” Xia Yuqing recovered from her astonishment and exclaimed, full of joy. 

“Why is that girl here at this time? Isn’t there still one or two days left?” Shao Zitang twitched. He had a helpless expression on his face. Now that surprise really turned into a fright. 

“Who knows? My instincts tell me that her appearing now… means that there must be a conspiracy!” Yan Ran’s expression was also a little weird. He was obviously startled by Yun Xi’s sudden appearance. 

The two people who didn’t match up usually, glanced at each other tacitly at this moment. Their eyes flashed, showing a little…sympathy. 

“Xiao Xi, why are you back?” He Wenzhong looked at Yun Xi who appeared suddenly with a look of surprise. His head being a beat slower than the rest, took some time before he called out.

Compared to a year ago, Yun Xi has grown taller. Her childish little face has faded a bit, but she was still as cute as ever. Her figure has also developed a lot. It was a lot more mature than a year ago.

Yun Xi walked towards the few people aggressively. Hearing He Wenzhong’s words, her eyebrows raised and she said angrily: “Why? Are you upset that I came back? Did I come back at the wrong time and bother you and this…….you and me, I thought our affection was limitless. I was eager to come back to see you, but now you dare to…… be a red apricot tree leaning over the wall?” (a wife having an illicit lover)

“!” Xia Yuqing was stunned. Xiao Xi, Xiao Xi, that idiom is not used like this, please calm down! (he is a boy while that idiom refers to a wife)

“Xiao Xi, it’s not…it’s not what you think.” He Wenzhong realized afterwards that he was now being held tightly by another woman and how it might look like he has an affair with another.

Before He Wenzhong could finish his explanation, he was interrupted by Xia Muyun next to him: “Who do you think is a b*tch? Who are you?” 

“I said it’s you and who am I? The man you are holding on to is my man, who do you think I am? Hurry up and let go, or I’ll chop your hand off!” Yun Xi was infuriated by Xia Muyun who acted as if she was He Wenzhong’s owner. 

After the screaming, there was a sudden silence. Only then did she realize what she had just said in her anxious state. Her face blushed, but she still looked straight at Xia Muyun with her head upright. She didn’t shrink at all. 

“Xiao Xi…” He Wenzhong smiled embarrassedly. He habitually stretched his hand and scratched his head.

Xia Muyun looked at the appearance of the two, her eyes flickering, then she understood. The corner of her eyes glanced at Leng Ruofeng again, she couldn’t help but feel frustrated afterwards. I’m like this with other men, but that dead face… 

Now look at what’s happened. The person who should be anxious isn’t, and the person who shouldn’t have misunderstood, has misunderstood. What should I do? 

Xia Muyun gritted her teeth and continued to hold onto He Wenzhong’s arm. She looked provocatively at Yun Xi who was staring at her on the opposite side: “What if I don’t let go?” 

“You…” Yun Xi was anxious and moved forward. She wanted to step forward to grab Xia Muyun’s hand, but Xia Muyun avoided it. The two began fighting over He Wenzhong’s hand. 

The poor big bear didn’t know whether to struggle out of this situation or not, so he just stayed completely still in fear of hurting these two aunts. 

Xia Yuqing intently watched the intense scene where these two women fought for this one man. Could this be the legendary love triangle? Ah, that’s not right, it’s a love square. There is also the air-conditioned Prime Minister on the side. Tsk Tsk, this drama is so lively. Prime Minister, what are you doing staying on the side so idly?? Are you really going to wait until the two start to fight? 

As if hearing Xia Yuqing’s heartfelt voice, Leng Ruofeng looked at the entangled figures of the three for a while, then finally stated: “Enough.” 

Xia Muyun heard Leng Ruofeng’s voice, so the pulling action stopped. She turned around and stared at Leng Ruofeng expectantly.

Leng Ruofeng glanced at her coldly, but avoided her gaze. He said awkwardly: “Don’t you see Wen Zong is uncomfortable? Why aren’t you letting go?” 

“…” Prime Minister, you have been holding back for such a long time and this is what you say? Xia Yuqing hid her face silently, she couldn’t bear to look any more. 

“Huh?” Yun Xi froze for a moment. Seeing that He Wenzhong has gone dizzy from their pulling, she hurriedly let go of his hands, “General He, are you all right?” 

“All right, all right.” He Wenzhong could see Yun Xi’s concern towards himself and a simple, honest smile appeared on his face again. 

Xia Muyun also slowly let go of He Wenzhong’s arm. She lowered her head and sneered, “That’s what you want to tell me?” 

Leng Ruofeng was silent, his eyebrows twisted slightly, as if he was struggling with something. His silence fell into the eyes of Xia Muyun as his response. 

“Really? Now, I know. I won’t pester you again, I won’t pester anyone again. Little Royal Sister, I’ll be leaving first. Tomorrow… you don’t have to come out to send me off.” Xia Muyun lowered her head and dropped her statement. Then without looking at Leng Ruofeng, she turned and left under the surprised gaze of everyone.

“Third Royal Sister…” Xia Yuqing looked at Xia Muyun’s departure. She felt a little distressed for some reason. The moment her Royal Sister turned around, she seemed to see her crying. Someone like Royal Sister is crying? !     

Leng Ruofeng, who also noticed this, froze. He looked blankly at the direction Xia Muyun was leaving. Before he could react, he felt a powerful force coming towards his shoulders, making him stagger and almost fall on the spot.     

“F*ck, I really shouldn’t have given her this bad idea. No, I shouldn’t have given Third Royal Sister to this immobile iceberg. Royal Sister is right, you are a dead face. You are the rock inside of a latrine pit, hard and smelly, and can’t understand anything. You never said you liked her, that you care about her, or that you don’t like her being with other men! You deserve to be a bachelor for a lifetime, no, forever!” Xia Yuqing was very angry and slapped Leng Ruofeng forward. She planned to add in a few stomps, but was stopped by Yan Ran and Shao Zitang. 

“Empress, your words are not right. The third princess is a good sister of yours, but now you are a member of the Ye Kingdom when you married in, thus the few of us and you are considered friends. Even if you are partial to the third princess, you can’t be too biased. We have all heard what the third princess said just now. Since she has said that, should RuoFeng eagerly stick to her cold butt?” Yan Ran grabbed Xia Yuqing’s hand that wasn’t holding the second baby and spoke angrily.

“I’m partial? I’m biased? If I want to be partial, I shouldn’t have let Royal Sister interact with this b*stard in the first place. Hmph, also, who is a friend of yours? Let go of your dirty hands. Dundun, bite him!” Xia Yuqing was annoyed by Yan Ran’s words and let out a low halt.     

Hearing the call of her Mother, Second Baby’s hair stood up. Her mouth opened, revealing the few white little deciduous teeth in her mouth. She viciously bit onto Yan Ran’s…fingers.     

“Ow… why is this little girl so fierce when biting people?”     

“Hmph, don’t you know who our second baby is? Do you think ordinary children can compare?” Xia Yuqing gave him a disdainful look. Then, she rewarded Second Baby with a quick kiss, causing Second Baby to wield her pink fists and giggle.     

“You…”     

“What’s wrong with me? You dare to say that the words of my Third Royal sister are wrong? Are the words that my Third Royal Sister said not true?”     

“This…”     

“What is this? Are you not known to be a romantic Gong Zi? Being at brothels for many years, how can you not differentiate whether what my Third Royal Sister said was true or false? Couldn’t you see that when my Royal Sister was holding General He’s arm and smiled, it looked uglier than crying? D*mn, none of you are good things. One starts illicit affairs and runs, one remains silent, and one…”     

“…I am innocent.” Shao Zitang weakly protested.     

“The same is true for you. Birds of a feather flock together. Who knows if you’ll meet someone you like in the future and do something worse than them.”     

“…” For the first time in his life, he really realized what it is to be shot while lying down! (attacked when doing nothing)

Several people were petrified by Xia Yuqing’s scolding. Xia Yuqing still didn’t feel better. When she remembered that a certain incomprehensible iceberg made her Royal Sister cry, she had the urge to step forward and thrash someone. 

“Forget it, tomorrow, my Royal Sister will return to Xia Country. From now on, the green hills will not change and the green water will continue to flow. You can just stay and regret.” After Xia Yuqing finished speaking, she wanted to turn around and leave, but Ruo Feng grabbed her wrist. 

“Ugh, it hurts, what are you doing? Are you flying into a rage out of humiliation?” Xia Yuqing looked up at Leng Ruofeng who suddenly grabbed her hand. 

“Niang Niang (Qing Jiejie)!” Several people on the side exclaimed. Trying to step forward, they were stopped by Yan Ran.

“Grand Tutor, are you trying to stop us while Xiao Yuan isn’t here?” Lu Rui glanced at him. 

“…” Yan Ran froze, raising a flattering smile, “Great Aunts, you just need to be a little accommodating, just a little bit.” 

“…” 

“The third princess is going to return to her country tomorrow? She’s not trying to loosen the reins to grasp one better?” Shao Zitang folded his arms, glanced at Xia Yuqing, and asked with some playfulness. 

F* your sister! Xia Yuqing gave Shao Zitang an angry glance and pulled her hand out of Leng Ruofeng’s grasp.

“Believe it or not, Third Royal Sister has come to say goodbye to me. Anyways, you can just treat it as if I’m lying to you.” Xia Yuqing made a face at the two of them. Then, she turned and pulled the confused Yun Xi away, “Let’s go, hmph!” 

Once Yun Xi left, He Wenzhong who finally got to see Yun Xi naturally followed, leaving the three men standing in the wind. They looked at each other, not sure what to do.     

“Xiao Xi, why didn’t you say a word about coming back? I thought I heard something wrong just now? Come, let me see. Tsk tsk tsk, you grew taller, and look more beautiful.” Xia Yuqing led Yun Xi back to Xiefang Hall. Upon arrival, she looked at Yun Xi up and down, and exclaimed in admiration. 

“By the way, how are you doing? The last time you left, didn’t you say you wanted to go back to deal with things. What happened afterwards? What happened to that Jiang Feizao…and General Ji.” 

“That.” Yun Xi’s face sank slightly. “After my father and I returned to the country, there had been news that my father and I had died in Ye Kingdom. My father and Uncle Hao wanted to beat them at their game, but did not expect to invoke a group of officials that were against my father. My Third Uncle was their leader. Later…. that Jiang Feizao and General Ji, both of them, were used, so he gave a small punishment for a big admonishment, so nothing happened to them.”

Yun Xi’s understatement made Xia Yuqing a little disappointed. She originally thought she could hear some exciting palace secrets, but the villain Jiang Feizao only received a small punishment!

“Mother, Mother…” Second baby in Xia Yuqing’s arms hurriedly waved her little hand to show her existence. 

“This is… Qing Jiejie’s baby?” Yun Xi saw the second baby early on, but at that time her attention was all on He Wenzhong, so she didn’t get to ask. 

“Yes, this is my little princess, her nickname is Dundun. As for my eldest baby, I don’t know where he went early in the morning. When he comes back later, I’ll show him to you.” 

“En.” Yun Xi kept nodding her head. Two bright eyes stared at the little baby eagerly, “Um, Qing Jiejie, can I give her a hug?” 

Xia Yuqing was taken aback, as if they had returned to when they had first met a year ago.

At that time, the cute Loli dressed as a teenager looked at herself expectantly, and asked cautiously: “Can I touch it?” 

It turned out that no matter the appearance and shape of the person in front of her, her temperament and inside will always be the same as before. Nothing has changed. 

“Of course. Baby, your Xiao Xi Jiejie, no, it’s Aunt Xiao Xi wants to hug you, do you want her to hug you?” Xia Yuqing lowered her head to ask Second Baby’s opinion. 

Second Baby held her finger and looked at Yun Xi with her eyes wide open. This sister has a round face and looks so cute, like a small dumpling. The little man in Second Baby’s heart began to drool….

“Auntie, hug.” After thinking for a moment, Second Baby took the initiative to stretch out her hand towards Yunxi. 

Yun Xi was stunned. Overjoyed, she hurriedly reached out to take the person into her arms: “Oh, she’s really cute, soft, and sweet. Is it okay to kiss her?” 

It’s almost here, it’s almost here! Second Baby was held in Yun Xi’s arms and her eyes were fixated on Yun Xi’s cheeks. As it got closer and closer, she opened her mouth and… 

“Oh?” Yun Xi had her guard down and was nibbled.

“…” Second Bun, that’s not a Xiao Longbao, you can’t just eat it! As expected, Xia Yuqing, who was also a foodie, saw her Second Baby’s intentions at a glance. 

“…” It’s over, it’s over. The little princess will be the same as the empress in the future and become a foodie. The rice in the palace, they’re getting further and further from us! This is a group of palace ladies who hid their faces in silence. 

“Mm, soft. Hahaha…” The Second Baby nibbled for a while. Then as if she had noticed something strange, she released her mouth and happily clapped her hands and laughed.     

“…” Yun Xi touched the small tooth marks on her face in a daze. Fortunately, Second Baby did not bite hard this time, thus only a shallow tooth mark was left, which was not very painful.     

“That, Xiao Xi, Dundun is…” Xia Yuqing looked at the tooth marks on her face and wanted to explain. But, then she saw Second Baby had grabbed onto Yun Xi’s neck again and was opening her mouth.     

“Dun Dun, don’t bite!” Xia Yuqing exclaimed. However, she was still a step too late. She could only watch as the round face of Second Baby faced Yun Xi…     

“Mm, soft… Auntie.” This time, Second Baby did not chew on Yun Xi’s face, but instead kissed the place where she had just bitten with her teeth.     

Xia Yuqing was stunned for a moment, then she was slightly relieved. She said with a faint smile: “It seems that she likes you quite a lot.”

Yun Xi also didn’t expect that the second baby would kiss her, so she was startled. Her eyes brightened when she looked at Second Baby: “Oh, I like her so much too. She’s just too cute, too cute! She is also so soft and comfortable to hold. Ah, will you sleep with your aunt tonight?” 

Second Baby was very comfortable with Yun Xi, and giggled: “Sleep together, sleep together.” 

“…” Dundun, have you been bought by your Auntie Xiao Longbao already? Do you still remember Big Baby who sleeps with you every night? If you act like this, Big Baby will cry! 

But, forget it… Xia Yuqing looked at the two buns, one big and one small, happily together, and smiled: “Xiao Xi, welcome back.” 

Yun Xi was taken aback, then with a smile on her face, she nodded: “En!” 

Xia Yuqing watched Yun Xi play with Second Baby for a long time, before she felt something off: “Hey, Xiao Xi, when your father brought you back, didn’t he say that you and General He would be separated for two years? It’s been less than a year and a half, why did you come back? Did your father agree that you could come to see General He?” 

Yun Xi was shocked when she heard this. She smiled at Xia Yuqing, a little embarrassed: “Father did not agree, but I couldn’t help it, so… I sneaked out by myself, hehe…” 

“…” The whole Xiefang palace was silent for a moment. Only then did Xia Yuqing exclaim, “You sneaked out by yourself again?!” 

“Xiao Xi, Xiao Xi, you ran here alone? Did you meet any dangers on the road? Were you bothered by anyone? How can you run out alone? What would we do if you encountered a bad person on the road? You are a weak woman…” Hearing that Yun Xi ran out by herself, He Wenzhong, who was waiting quietly, couldn’t help but jump out worriedly. He looked at Yun Xi helplessly, and wanted to see if she was injured personally, but he was worried that he was being too bold and taking liberties with her.

Upon seeing this, Yun Xi couldn’t help but smile. She lowered her head and said shyly: “Aren’t I fine now? I chose a shortcut. There were no bad people on the road, so I got here very quickly.”

“Although you’re okay, next time, go out with more people to protect you. Xiao Xi, you have a special status. If any shortcomings happen on the road, it will be too late to ask for help.” Lu Rui brought a plate of snacks and a few cups of hot tea and couldn’t help but add. 

“Yeah, that’s right.” Xia Yuqing kept nodding her head, causing Second Baby in Yun Xi’s arms to nod as well: “That’s right.” 

That cute appearance attracted a few people around her to pinch her little cheeks. 

“I know, isn’t it all right now? Hee hee… But what happened just now? That woman…” When Yun Xi remembered the scene just now, she was still very concerned. She had finally hurried over to Ye Kingdom and the first thing she saw was that the man she liked was held by another woman? ! 

“That… just now… was a misunderstanding. It was a misunderstanding, you have to believe me! I have nothing to do with her, it really is a misunderstanding!” He Wenzhong saw Yun Xi ask about the matter just now and his face changed. He hurriedly waved his hands to explain. It’s a pity… his tongue was not very bright. 

“Ahem…Xiao Xi, that was just a misunderstanding.” In the end, Xia YuQing had to help explain, “The woman just now was my Third Royal Sister. A lot of things happened after you left, Xiao Xi. Third Royal Sister didn’t mean to steal General He from you, she has someone else she likes.” 

“Someone else she likes?” 

“Yes, it’s the Iceberg Prime Minister whom I scolded just now.”

“The Prime Minister?” Yun Xi was surprised. She took a deep breath in and looked at Xia Yuqing. 

“Yeah.” Xia Yuqing nodded. After Yun Xi left, they went to Xia Country to visit Liu Yixiang, then met Xia Muyun. When they returned, she had accompanied them back to Ye Country. Afterwards, all sorts of events happened between Xia Muyun and the Iceberg Prime Minister, cough cough, of course, Xia Yuqing naturally pushed those events to happen… However, Xia Yuqing naturally omitted this fact.

“It turned out to be like that. I have misunderstood.” Yun Xi remembered the words she had said in a hurry, her small face flushed suddenly. She did not dare look up at He Wenzhong who was relieved on the side. 

“Yes, yes, this is a misunderstanding, but you can’t be blamed. Royal Sister was a little too brash, even I was frightened.” Xia Yuqing looked at Yun Xi’s blushing face and couldn’t help mock. “However, Xiao Xi, your reaction just now was really…” 

“I…I was not…” Yun Xi’s face became more embarrassed after hearing Xia Yuqing’s words. 

“Xiao Xi, you still don’t want to admit it? That’s not okay, we all heard clearly just now, you said that General He is…” 

“Qing Jiejie, don’t say it. How can I… I won’t admit it.” Yun Xi’s cheeks blushed, quickly turning into a cooked steamed bun. This made people want to chew on it even more. 

“It’s red…” Second Baby in Yun Xi’s arms clapped strangely when she saw it. 

“Hehe…” He Wenzhong looked at Yun Xi’s appearance. A little embarrassed, he stretched out his hand to scratch the back of his head. He smiled stupidly. 

“…” This is the legend in which fortune favours fools. In the end, even though those shrewd people in the group bumped into a wall, this pair of lovers had everything go smoothly. It was just the father-in-law who was a bit difficult to handle, Xia Yuqing thought as she sighed with emotion.

“Cough cough…” Just when Yun Xi’s face was flushing, as if she was about to burn herself, a female voice was heard. 

“Hey, where did this girl come from? How come I’ve never seen her before? Xiao Xi, you brought her? It turns out that you didn’t run out alone this time.” Xia Yuqing followed the sound and it was discovered that Yun Xi had been followed by a beautiful woman. 

“…” Niang Niang, this girl has been following Xiao Xi the entire time, you just haven’t noticed it. Looks at the sky~ 

“Ah, I almost forgot!” Yun Xi suddenly woke up and looked at the woman behind her and explained: “Ruixia Jiejie didn’t come out with me. She was sent by my Royal Mother to pick me up. She was originally in the capital of Ye Country.” 

Ruixia? Why is this name so familiar? 

“Your mother sent her to meet you? So, your mother knew you sneaked out?” 

Yun Xi stuck out her tongue and said wittyly: “Yes, Royal Mother knows. Hehe, me running away last time was with my Mother’s approval, otherwise I wouldn’t dare to get mixed with that Jiang Feizao. Speaking of which, the reason I was so anxious to enter the palace today was because I heard that Qing Jiejie arrested a lot of people in Ying Chun Yuan on the outskirts of the city last night. One of those people is my Jiejie who has been away for many years. Can I ask you to be lenient and spare her once?” 

“Your sister? Xiao Xi, aren’t you an only daughter? When did you have a sister?” Xia Yuqing was stunned, staring at Yun Xi in surprise. 

“Oh, it’s not a blood-related sister, just a good sister who grew up together with me. She disappeared for some reason seven years ago. This time when I ran out to find you, my mother said that she would send someone to meet me in the capital. I asked her who she was, and she didn’t tell me. But when I saw Ruixia Jiejie the other day, I realized that it was Fang Jiejie. Ruixia Jiejie was Fang Jiejie’s close maid and she grew up with me as well.”

Ruixia Jiejie? Fang Jiejie? Last night? Ying Chun Yuan? 

“Rui Xia! So you are Rui Xia, the Rui Xia from Ying Chun Yuan! So, when they originally said that she was unable to see guests because of her illness, it was so she could pick up Xiao Xi?” Xia Yuqing exclaimed, pointing to Rui Xia in surprise. 

Ruixia was taken aback. She hurriedly stepped forward, bowed and knelt down: “Yes, Nu Bi is Ruixia. Nu Bi suddenly received a letter from the empress of our country the day before asking Nu Bi to go out of the city to meet the crown princess. Thus, Nu Bi lied about being sick so I didn’t have to meet with any guests. Later… I didn’t expect that as soon as I brought her Royal Highness into the city that Ying Chun Yuan would have been sealed off by the emperor and the empress last night. Nu Bi knew that something was wrong. Knowing that miss was still there, I thought that she must have been already arrested.” 

Ruixia spoke with an ugly expression. It was clear she was worried about the safety of her master: “It just so happened that Nu Bi heard her Royal Highness and the empress are old acquaintances. Only then did Nu Bi courageously ask Her Royal Highness to bring Nu Bi into the palace to meet Niang Niang. Niang Niang, Nu Bi knows that it was a big crime for Nu Bi and the miss to sneak into the capital of Ye Kingdom without permission. But Nu Bi dares to use her own life as a guarantee, Nu Bi and the miss did not have any intentions in harming Ye country. The reason why we lurked in Ying Chun Yuan was for…” 

“For what?” 

Ruixia looked up at Yun Xi and saw her nodding towards herself, so she gritted her teeth and answered: “Niang Niang must already know that the people in Ying Chun Yuan are not ordinary people, most of them are Xue Country secret agents. Nu Bi and the miss lurked there only because the young lady had a grievance with Xue Country. These Xue Country spies sent news from Ye Country back to Xue Country, but also received secretive news from Xue Country,  therefore…”

“You mean, the purpose of you staying in Ying Chun Yuan was not to investigate the secrets of Ye Country, but to get information about Xue Country?” It’s really too complicated! Xia Yuqing heard Cui Er speak about the people in Ying Chun Yuan before, but she didn’t expect spies hidden within this spy group. Is this the legendary spy within another group of spies? A double spy? It sounds even cooler than 007! 

Ruixia didn’t notice that Xia Yuqing’s eyes had lit up because of her words. After thinking about it, she nodded and replied, “Yes.” 

“Oh, so that’s it. Then what is the grudge between your miss and Xue Country?” 

“This…” Rui Xia hesitated, then finally turned her face away, “This matter is related to the young lady, so Nu Bi dare not disclose it privately.” 

“Oh.” A trace of disappointment crossed Xia Yuqing’s face. She thought she could dig into bigger gossip, the result… It seems that she has accidentally touched some state secrets, so she should give up temporarily, but… Hehe… 

“Qing Jiejie, Fang Jiejie, Ruixia Jiejie and I grew up together. I can vouch for her character. Therefore, for my sake, please give them a good word in front of the emperor. I believe that as long as you say something, the emperor will definitely agree to let Fang Jiejie go.” Yun Xi held Second Baby and pleaded in a low voice. 

Xia Yuqing groaned, revealing a very troubled expression: “It’s not that I don’t want to help you, but I really can’t open this mouth.” 

“Why? Qing Jiejie!” Yun Xi looked surprised. Rui Xia also raised her head in surprise, staring at her in a daze. Her eyes were full of surprise and disappointment. 

After a long while, Rui Xia lowered her head and curled her lips, “Nu Bi understands.”

Saying this, she got up from the ground. She bowed to Yun Xi, turned and walked outside. 

Xia Yuqing looked at her disappointed back and couldn’t help but call out: “Wait a minute, where are you going? Are you breaking into prison? You are alone. No matter how skilled you are in martial arts, you can’t beat that many imperial guards in the palace!” 

Ruixia paused, then with a self-deprecating look, she let out a light laugh: “Niang Niang misunderstood, Nu Bi does not have such a high ability to single-handedly rescue Miss.” 

“So?” You want to make a run for it by yourself? 

“So since Nu Bi can’t save the young lady, naturally Nu Bi will die with the young lady. Nu Bi will go to the cell and accompany the lady to accept punishment.” 

“Ruixia Jiejie…” Yun Xi exclaimed. Just about to turn her head to intercede, she saw Xia Yuqing jump into Cui Er’s arms disappointed: “Cui Er, you see, you see, they are going to die and are not willing to beg me. They really aren’t cooperating at all. It’s no fun.” 

“…” Yun Xi and Ruixia were stunned at the same time. They stared at Xia Yuqing in surprise. 

Cui Er and the others also looked helpless: “Niang Niang, you scared them!” 

“Scared them? I thought they were going to die together, it seems like I was the one who got the scare.” Xia Yuqing stared angrily at Ruixia. Losing the battle, she sighed softly, “Okay, okay, I know, I will just let them go.” 

“Qing Jiejie, you will let them go?” Yun Xi was startled, looking at Xia Yuqing and asked. 

“Ah, I haven’t told you, but the emperor handed your Fang Jiejie’s full authority to me, so I don’t have to speak to the emperor at all.” Xia Yuqing said innocently. 

“!” Yun Xi and Ruixia looked at each other, gritted their teeth and said, “No, Qing Jiejie, you haven’t said such a thing.” 

“Ahahaha, is that the case?” 

“…” That’s right, it was like that! 

“Well, even if I didn’t say anything, how can you not trust me, Xiao Xi?” Xia Yuqing asked unreasonably. 

“…” Is it my illusion? Is the unreasonable woman in front of her the most noble woman in Ye Kingdom? Ruixia was stunned by the sudden truth.

Yun Xi was holding Second Baby who was tossing around in her arms. She rolled her eyes to the sky: “It’s obviously Qing Jiejie who said such misleading things. You even asked Ruixia Jiejie if she wanted to break into prison, I thought ……Ahhh, you stand there and don’t run, I promise not to hit you.” 

“Pu…” Xia Yuqing coughed slightly, “Don’t mind the details.” 

“… Qing Jiejie, during my absence, you seem to have been led astray by the emperor.” Yun Xi said, looking at the familiar smile on Xia Yuqing’s face. 

“Actually… I think so too.” 

“…” After a brief silence, Yun Xi flew off with Second Baby and rushed towards Xia Yuqing. Xia Yuqing saw that the situation was bad, and turned around and ran. 

“Qing Jiejie, don’t run!” 

“If you promise me that you won’t hit me, then I won’t run.” 

“Didn’t I just say that I won’t hit you?” 

“Then what are you chasing after me for? I’m not a fool. I won’t stay where you are.” Xia Yuqing turned her head and made a grimace at Yun Xi, “I said it was not intentional, Xiao Xi. It’s been a long time since I saw you and you are getting too stingy.” 

“You dare say I’m stingy? You’re obviously bullying people. Do you know how you almost scared me to death just now? Don’t run…” 

Second Baby who was running around in the arms of Yun Xi waved her small fists and giggled. 

In an instant, the solemn atmosphere that enveloped in Xiefang Hall was swept away, and it reverted back to its usual…chaos.

Ruixia looked at the palace that was completely different from her own impression. She was stunned on the spot. She did not know how to react until… 

“It’s okay, Niang Niang is just joking with you. Xiao Xi’s friends are our friends. How can Niang Niang not help. From the very beginning, Niang Niang was not going to do anything to your lady.” Cui Er had walked next to Ruixia, and gave her a faint smile. 

“Was Her Royal Highness like this when she was here before? Why aren’t you going up to stop them?” 

“Well, no need. When they get tired, they will stop. I will take you to see your lady now.” 

“Huh? Is it okay? You really don’t have to ask your emperor’s opinion?” 

Cui Er smiled: “No, when you stay in the palace for a long time, you will find that here, the words of the empress are more effective than anyone else, including the emperor.” 

“!” 

After finally solving He Fang’s matter, Xia Yuqing’s little head began to worry about Xia Muyun who was about to leave tomorrow. 

“Royal Sister will leave tomorrow. If the Prime Minister doesn’t get it straightened out before then, Royal Sister will definitely give up her feelings towards Iceberg Prime Minister.” Xia Yuqing said distressedly, lying on the table. 

“What are you going to do?” 

Xia Yuqing pondered for a long time, then her eyes lit up. Her eyes were shining towards Lu Rui. This made Lu Rui shudder and take two steps back reflexively, but she was caught by Xia Yuqing and quickly pulled back: “Lu Rui.” 

“Niang Niang…what’s your order?”

“You need to take a trip to the Prime Minister’s Mansion.” 

“Huh?” 

Xia Yuqing approached Lu Rui’s ear with a weird smile on her face. She whispered a few words. Lu Rui’s face following Xia Yuqing’s words changed from surprise, to embarrassment, then to 囧, then finally: “Niang Niang, this… this is not good.” 

“What’s wrong? Hmph, if this still doesn’t work, I…I can’t help it.” 

“…” 

At this moment, Leng Ruofeng, who didn’t know that he had been targeted by Xia Yuqing, was experiencing the torment of Yan Ran before. The words of Xia Yuqing were constantly echoing in his head. “You never say you like my Third Sister, care about my Third Sister, or state you don’t like her being with other men! You deserve to be a bachelor for this lifetime. No, forever!”

Leng Ruofeng nodded, and asked, “Where is my father?” 

“Master? Oh, the Old Master is already up and drinking tea in the study.” 

“En.” Leng Ruofeng responded lightly. Turning around, he walked towards the study. Master Leng who was drinking tea in the study, saw Leng Ruofeng walk in and couldn’t help being a little surprised: “Ruofeng, you came to see Father so early? Do you have an important matter to speak about?” 

Leng Ruofeng nodded. He was silent for a moment, then he uttered in a low voice: “I want to ask Father a question.” 

“Huh?” 

“Did Father and Mother go to bed with each other as soon as they met?”

“Pu…”
