Chapter 603

If you can't hold back, you can't hold back anymore.

It's just a matter of a slap.

Madam Zhou cried out in alarm and rushed forward to cover Madam Zhou: "Prince Huo! You are a man, how could you lay a hand on a woman! And in public no less! Aren't you afraid of being impeached!"

Huo Yue chuckled.

"Impeach me if you will, what do I have to fear?"

The Huo family has guarded the border for the emperor for so many years and has military merits. Why would they be afraid of a few memorials?

Besides, it wasn't his fault.

Seeing Yunxi about to leave, Madam Yun screamed and, without even getting up, crawled directly towards Yunxi.

Seeing this, Zhong Jie quickened her pace.

He helped Yunxi up the steps before turning to look at her.

"When Xi'er was at your house, you treated her with utter contempt. Now that Xi'er is gone, what kind of mother-daughter drama are you putting on here?"

"Besides, Xi'er isn't your child, she's a child of the Huo family! If you're going crazy, don't come looking for the Huo family!"

After speaking, Zhong Jie looked at Yun Xi.

Yunxi looked at Madam Yun with a complicated expression.

In her past life, she always thought that Madam Yun was her biological mother. She thought that she was only forced by circumstances at the beginning, and that as long as she listened to her, she would treat her well.

But it took her a lifetime to realize that Madam Yun was not someone she could rely on.

But she gave up hope, and Madam Yun went completely mad.

Human hearts are truly unpredictable.

But Yunxi no longer wanted to guess what was in her heart.

She's not his biological mother.

Then Yunxi met Zhong Jie's gaze and smiled, "Mother, let's go back."

Zhong Jie smiled and said, "Okay."

The mother and daughter left together, and Huo Shu and Chen Qiang exchanged a glance before following them.

Huo Yue lagged a few steps behind, instructing his men to guard the door and prevent Madam Yun from barging in before catching up.

They didn't mention kicking people out.

Anyway, it wasn't his family members who were lost.

They can just watch the show as Madam Yun slaps herself in the face.

——

Although the Huo family had not returned to the capital for a long time, it was still a royal residence, and its location was naturally excellent. Moreover, since the Huo family returned to the capital, they had been under constant scrutiny. Within half a day, the news that Madam Yun had made a scene in front of the Huo family's gate had spread throughout the capital.

To make matters worse, Yun Changliang only learned of this after being summoned to the imperial study by the emperor.

Upon hearing the emperor's words, Yun Changliang immediately broke out in a cold sweat: "Your Majesty, my wife has indeed not been feeling well lately. I will leave the palace immediately and take her back to settle her in."

"No rush." ​​The emperor raised his hand. "Explain to me first why your wife said that the Huo family stole her daughter. Is there something fishy about this?"

"Also, when did your Yun family have a daughter, and what's the story behind that?"

The emperor asked several questions in succession. Yun Changliang raised his hand and wiped the cold sweat from his face: "Your Majesty, this is, after all, my family matter..."

"Family matters?" The emperor sneered. "Your wife has already made a scene in the street. Now the whole capital is watching the Yun family's spectacle. If I don't handle this well, people might even be watching the court's spectacle!"

"This matter is no longer as simple as your family affair; please explain in detail!"
