Chapter 458 Discourteous

The Prince of Weiguo suddenly understood why Prince Yuzhang threw his sister into the lotus pond at the Queen Mother's blessing banquet.

Like him——

He must give an explanation for mistakenly dragging away Prince Yuzhang's cousin as his own sister in front of Prince Yuzhang and Prince Yong.

But he didn't even know the girl's name or what she looked like, so he had to be held responsible for damaging her reputation.

Afraid that his sister might misunderstand him, the Duke of Wei had no choice but to take Qin Nian'er away. After making sure that his sister hadn't chased after him, he quickly let go of Qin Nian'er and apologized, "I'm sorry, I was afraid that my sister would see it and think too much..."

Qin Nian'er was wearing a mask, but no one knew how hot her face was underneath the mask. Although she swore to her cousin that she would help him take down the Prince of Weiguo, she might not have the courage to do so. However, she did not expect to have an inexplicable intersection with the Prince of Weiguo at the Lantern Festival.

"I, I will take responsibility for my disrespectful behavior just now..."

The Prince of Weiguo's voice became lower and lower as he spoke.

Qin Nian'er chuckled, "Is the prince of Weiguo willing to marry someone he doesn't like?"

The Prince of Weiguo fell silent.

No one wants to.

But it was him who offended the girl, so he deserved it.

Qin Nian'er raised the arm that was grabbed by the Prince of Weiguo, and said casually, "It was just a grab on my clothes, Prince of Weiguo, don't mind it."

"but--"

"My cousin really likes Miss Wei Si, and Miss Wei Si is not completely indifferent to my cousin. I hope that the Prince of Weiguo can help my cousin."

Qin Nian'er felt blessed.

The Prince of Weiguo had offended the girl, and since she was speaking well of her cousin, the Prince of Weiguo would definitely express his stance, "I won't stop him, but it won't be easy for him to marry my sister."

After passing this hurdle, there are still his parents to deal with.

Qin Nian'er knew this without the Prince of Weiguo telling her.

Every difficulty will be overcome.

My cousin has a long way to go.

She smiled and said, "Then I will thank the Prince of Weiguo on behalf of my cousin."

After bowing again, Qin Nian'er turned and left.

The Prince of Weiguo lagged behind by several steps.

Qin Nian'er said, "My carriage is in front, no need to follow me."

The Prince of Weiguo said, "There are many people at the Lantern Festival. If I take yours, I must send you to your cousin."

"I'm not going to look for my cousin. I'm going back to Prince Teng's Mansion."

"Then I'll take you back to Prince Teng's Mansion."

Seeing that he insisted, Qin Nian'er did not refuse. If anything went wrong with her at the Lantern Festival, there would be no possibility for her cousin and Miss Wei Si to be together.

The lost maid was waiting beside the carriage. When she saw Qin Nian'er, she hurried over and said, "You scared me to death. I thought you were lost."

"I was with my cousin, how could it be lost?"

The maid said, "This isn't the young master. Who is this young master?"

Qin Nian'er whispered, "He is the prince of Weiguo who beat my cousin seven times."

The maidservant couldn't believe it, "Miss, you are too powerful, you have captured the prince of Weiguo just like that?"

Qin Nian'er, "..."

"Don't talk nonsense."

Qin Nian'er held the maid's hand and got into the carriage, and the maid also got in.

The Prince of Weiguo followed from a distance until the carriage stopped at the gate of Prince Teng's Mansion. He watched Qin Nian'er enter the Palace before riding away.

After entering the mansion, the maid said, "Why didn't the Prince of Weiguo say a word to you, young lady?"

"He just sent me back on behalf of my cousin."

Qin Nian'er was very worried.

She didn't expect that there would be such an awkward moment between herself and the Prince of Weiguo. Previously, in order to help her cousin, she took the initiative to ask Wei Mingzhu if she could go to the Duke of Weiguo's mansion to play with her. Wei Mingzhu readily agreed and said that she would prepare delicious cakes for her tomorrow, but now she didn't want to go.

It would be so embarrassing if she ran into the Prince of Weiguo at the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion. Besides, the Prince of Weiguo would no longer stop her cousin in the future, so her mission to go to Beijing would be accomplished. However, the Duke of Weiguo and his wife were not something she could deal with, so her cousin had to wish her good luck.

Qin Nian'er returned to her courtyard with a worried look on her face. If she didn't go tomorrow, would Miss Wei Si think that any unreliable cousin brother meant any unreliable cousin sister...

For the sake of her cousin, she had no choice but to sacrifice her reputation.

If she really met the Prince of Weiguo, she would pack her bags and go back to Qizhou.

Besides, the Prince of Weiguo sent Qin Nian'er back to Prince Teng's Mansion and watched her enter the mansion before leaving.

It was getting late, and the Prince of Weiguo was afraid of being teased by the Prince of Yongwang and the others, so he went straight back to the Prince of Weiguo's Mansion.

After returning, before he even got off the horse, the servant said, "My Lord, the Madam asked you to go back and find her."

It’s so late, isn’t mom asleep yet?

The wife of Duke Weiguo wanted to sleep, but her son had a girl he liked, and she couldn't wait to know who the girl was so that she could propose marriage.

She wouldn't be able to sleep all night unless she figured this out.

Just as she was getting anxious, the prince of Weiguo walked in. The wife of the Duke of Weiguo asked with a smile on her face, "Whose family is this girl who is visiting the lantern festival with you today?"

The Prince of Weiguo said, "I didn't go to the lantern festival with anyone."

"You still say no, but your sister saw it with her own eyes. You even grabbed the girl's hand," said the wife of the Duke of Wei.

The Prince of Weiguo, "......!!!"

What kind of eyes his sister had.

It doesn't shine when it should, and it's crystal clear when it shouldn't.

The Prince of Weiguo didn't know how to say this. Although the girl said it was nothing, he felt bad.

Irresponsible, sorry.

It's hard to make the decision to take responsibility.

However, even if a marriage proposal is made, it should be made after the matter between Prince Yuzhang and my sister is resolved, so there is no need to rush.

If only he hadn't seen that girl that day...

The prince of Weiguo was depressed and said, "I have something else to do. I will go back first."

The Duke of Wei turned and left. The Duke of Wei's wife asked, "If you don't tell me, how can I propose marriage for you?"

The Prince of Weiguo had originally left, but now he ran away.

The housekeeper beside her laughed and said, "The prince is so shy..."

The wife of the Duke of Wei said unhappily, "Have you ever seen anyone so shameless as to come up and hold a girl's hand?"

“…”

"You're thick-skinned in front of other girls, but you're thin-skinned in front of me, your mother."

“…”

As for Chen Wan, she leaned on the big pillow and watched the two children in her belly making a fuss.

You punch and I kick.

Shen Wan wondered if the two little ones in her belly were fighting.

Shanhu saw this and said, "It's late at night, and the Crown Prince's Consort should rest. If you don't sleep, the young master and the young lady won't sleep either."

But she was not sleepy at all. However, for the sake of her child, she forced herself to fall asleep even though she was not asleep.

But just as he was about to lie down, Dong'er said, "The prince is back."

Shen Wan sat up again, and Xie Jingyu walked in and said, "Why haven't you slept yet? Are you waiting for me?"

"I can't sleep."

Xie Jingyu came over and Shen Wan looked at him. Xie Jingyu knew what Shen Wan was going to ask, so he said, "Someone wanted to kill my second brother. He was seriously injured and almost died."

Shen Wan said, “Hasn’t he been back to Beijing for many years? How could anyone in Beijing want to kill him?”

"I was also puzzled by this, so I told my father."

"Father should bring my second brother back home tonight—"

Before Xie Jingyu finished speaking, Qiu'er came in and said, "Master, Princess, the prince found the second young master who disappeared through the dog hole and brought him back to the palace..."
