When Xie Jingyan arrived at the city patrol office on horseback, Wei Huan, the eldest son of the Wei family, had just received news that his fourth brother and the eighth prince were fighting in the street, and rushed over.

Wei Huan had a terrible headache. His fourth brother had repeatedly assured him that he wouldn't cause any trouble, which was why he brought him to the capital. But what happened? He got into a fight with the Eighth Prince just a few days after arriving in the capital. He didn't even know if the Eighth Prince was injured. If anything happened to the Eighth Prince, the entire Wei family wouldn't be able to afford the compensation.

Inside the main hall of the city patrol headquarters, the Eighth Prince and the Fourth Young Master Wei sat there, both with bruises and swelling on their faces, looking worse than the other.

On the contrary, the parrot stood on the coffee table, leisurely drinking tea, as if it wasn't the one who caused the trouble.

The Eighth Prince rubbed his bruised lip. He had never been beaten so badly in his life. He said, "You said you raised this parrot. Isn't your home in the Northwest? How did it end up in the capital?"

Wei Yi, the fourth young master, said, "This parrot was mine. It was stolen. I never expected to run into it in Kyoto..."

Before Wei Yi could finish speaking, Wei Huan walked in and said, "Your parrot wasn't stolen; your father had it sold."

Wei Yi froze, then abruptly stood up. "The parrot was sold by Father?!"

His voice rose, his lips twitched painfully, and his forehead trembled.

The Crown Prince of Yanping sat there, feeding the parrot with great interest, and asked, "What's going on?"

Wei Yi also wanted to know. He had always thought his parrot had been caught while playing outside, and he had searched for it for many days, feeling heartbroken for many days. It turned out that it hadn't been stolen, but rather sold by his father?!

Wei Yi couldn't accept it; this was a parrot he had raised since it was a cub!

How could Father secretly sell his parrot?!

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Wei Huan knew that he couldn't hide it anymore. He rubbed his forehead and told them the whole story of how his father sold the parrot.

Wei Yi raised this parrot from a young age and cherished it dearly. However, this parrot never learned to speak kind words, but it learned to curse very quickly and would curse anyone it could find. Once, when Madam Wei was scolding Wei Yi, the parrot cursed at her, and then it ran right into Madam Wei's line of fire. Madam Wei confiscated the parrot and decided to personally correct its habit of cursing.

However, Madam Wei had a bad temper. After raising the parrot for two months, not only did she fail to reform it, but it also learned more swear words from Madam Wei.

As for being sold by Master Wei, that was only because Master Wei was so angry that he could no longer tolerate it.

Mr. Wei and Mrs. Wei had been married for many years, bickering every few days, but Mr. Wei had never won. Once, Mr. Wei was in the right and it seemed that Mrs. Wei was about to give in when the chattering parrot stepped in to help, saying, "A good man doesn't fight with a woman." The situation was immediately reversed. Mrs. Wei wiped away her tears and said that even the parrot knew that a good man doesn't fight with a woman. She had borne him children, but he was angry with her over such a small matter. Mr. Wei was so angry that he had to humble himself and apologize to his wife when he finally won the argument.

Master Wei had been putting up with this parrot for a long time. In a fit of anger, he ordered it to be taken out of the mansion and sold. Fearing that his son would find it again, he specifically instructed that it be sold far away.

Young Master Wei knew about this, but he didn't dare tell his younger brother, fearing that his brother would tell their mother, Madam Wei, and then their own father would be in big trouble.

Who would have thought that even after coming all the way from Kyoto, it would still be found by my own younger brother.

The man was constantly being insulted by the parrot. I can totally understand what Mr. Wei was doing. It's just that he was unlucky; he bought a parrot that the other person didn't want and brought trouble upon himself.

Xie Jingyan raised his hand to rub his temples. Outside, Tang Ze and Lu Cheng were patrolling the city. Upon hearing that the Prince of Yanping and Du Cheng'an had captured the Eighth Prince and the Fourth Young Master Wei, especially the parrot that had insulted the Prince of Cheng, they rushed back immediately.

The two stepped into the main hall, ignoring everyone else, and went straight to the parrot as if it were some rare treasure. "Is this the parrot that scolded King Cheng yesterday? Seeing is believing, indeed."

Hearing that Prince Cheng was scolded by a parrot, and that it was Shen Wan's parrot that scolded him, Tang Ze and the others wanted to see what such a bold parrot looked like. However, the parrot had been borrowed into the palace by the Eighth Prince, and they thought they would have to wait until the Eighth Prince returned the parrot to Shen Wan before they could see it. Unexpectedly, they saw it so soon, and at the city patrol office.

Tang Ze and Lu Cheng were extremely excited.

After all, the number of people who can insult King Cheng and emerge unscathed can be counted on one hand, and this parrot is one of them.

Wei Huan and Wei Yi exchanged a glance.

They had heard about the parrot scolding King Cheng yesterday, and thought the people in the capital were making a big fuss over nothing. It was not common for a parrot to scold someone. But none of them had ever imagined that the parrot that scolded King Cheng was the one that their Wei family had raised.

Wei Yi looked at the parrot he had raised with mixed feelings. No one would believe him if he went out. His parrot had seen the Emperor and cursed Prince Cheng, but he, the master, didn't even know what the Emperor and Prince Cheng looked like.

The Crown Prince of Yanping laughed and said, "It turns out it was all a misunderstanding."

Wei Huan said to Wei Yi, "Hurry up and apologize to the Eighth Prince."

Wei Yi felt wronged, but this grievance was not given by anyone else, but by his own father. The Wei family could not afford to offend the Eighth Prince, so Wei Yi got up and apologized to the Eighth Prince.

The Eighth Prince touched the corner of his mouth, refusing to accept the apology from the Fourth Young Master Wei. Xie Jingyan frowned, and the Eighth Prince dared not act arrogantly anymore. After all, ignorance is no excuse, and he was the one who started the fight.

The Eighth Prince said, "We can be said to have become friends after a fight."

Wei Huan said, "It was because I didn't tell my fourth brother the truth that the parrot dispute happened. I happen to have a fine horse, so I'll take it as an apology to the eighth prince."

When Wei Huan went to the capital, he brought several fine horses with him. Du Cheng'an bought one, Young Master Cheng bought one, and only one horse was left.
