Xuan Yanyu leaned lazily on the wooden chair, raised his eyebrows and smiled happily.

Yan Shiyao looked at Qi Qingchen, who was about to faint from anger, and curled her lips. Didn’t she just tell him not to bother with him?

But I just wouldn't listen.

"You want me to give you an explanation? You hit General Pei, shouldn't I punish you?" Qi Qingchen's voice trembled with anger.

"Third Prince, I didn't do that. You can't slander me." The man chuckled softly, "Third Prince, did you want to punish me because of Pei Qingyan's words? Even Yan Yuning knows that you can't make a decision based on what others say. How come you are worse than Yan Yuning?"

Yan Yuning secretly pinched his leg and told Qi Qingchen to beat him to death!!!

Xuan Yanyu smiled ambiguously, held her hand, and played with it in his palm.

"It wasn't you who hit me? Who else dares to hit this general?" Pei Qingyan's cheeks trembled.

"I just came to Yuanjing Manor today. What reason do I have to hit you?" Xuan Yanyu looked at him puzzledly. "Tell me, why did I hit you?"

Pei Qingyan did not bother to argue with him, and turned to look at Qi Qingchen, "Your Highness, if Sister Yi saw this, he would be the one who beat me to death."

Xuan Yanyu raised his eyebrows, “General Pei, Third Prince, you can go ask Miss Shen.”

Qi Qingchen rubbed his chin and asked, "What are you asking?"

He could say that, but Shen Ruoyi would probably pretend not to see it!

"Third Prince." Xuan Yanyu pinched Yan Yuning's fingers and said with a smile, "It seems that you and General Pei really want to find a random excuse to punish me. If you don't give me a reason, I will go to the palace gate and accuse Your Highness."

Qi Qingchen tried his best to suppress his anger and threatened him clearly, making a scene at the gate of the palace. What would the emperor, the ministers, and the royal brothers think of him?

"Besides, General Pei said that I beat him, so why don't I have any wounds on my body? It can't be that General Pei allowed me to beat him and didn't fight back, right?" the man added in a cheeky tone.

Pei Qingyan's face flushed. If he explained, he would seem incompetent. If he didn't explain, Xuan Yanyu would talk nonsense.

Xuan Yanyu gave alms, "Six taels, Third Prince, General Pei, I don't need to explain anymore. Six taels is barely enough for me to accept your slander."

Yan Yuning pretended to be calm and took a sip of water. Six taels? Reluctantly accept? ?

Qi Qingchen clenched the jade ring on his thumb and forced a smile on his face, "I'm sorry I didn't ask clearly about this matter. Xuan Yuzi, for the sake of Ning Ning and Yao Yao, why don't you..."

"No, she has no place here." Xuan Yanyu lowered his eyes and smiled, "Third Prince, if you can't give me money before dinner today, I will go to the palace gate to sue you tonight."

Qi Qingchen's eyes dimmed. Who doesn't have a share in his heart? He said this just to make him follow his words and stop pursuing the matter.

He really has no brains at all. He offended him without even thinking about the consequences.

Yan Shiyao couldn't help but stand up, patted Qi Qingchen on the shoulder, and gloated, "Brother Qi, I've already told you to ignore him. How could Brother Yu hurt General Pei?"

"You still insisted on hitting Brother Yu with a stick. You must have misunderstood me. You should give Brother Yu some silver and comfort him."

Qi Qingchen glared at her.

Ye Chen raised his eyes and looked at Yan Shiyao. Now he felt a little more favorable towards Miss Yan.

"Brother Yu, don't worry. Brother Qi will definitely give you the money before dinner. Brother Qi is the Third Prince, he won't be a rogue. Don't think that Brother Qi will default on his debt." Yan Shiyao lowered her head and concealed her smile.

Qi Qingchen let out a breath, his brain almost exploded with anger.

Yan Shiyao is still a little stupid!

"I know. I don't think His Royal Highness the Third Prince will default on his debt." Xuan Yanyu smiled.

Qi Qingchen glanced at them with a cold face, then turned and left the dining hall. After Qi Qingchen and Wu An left, Pei Qingyan hesitated for a while and followed them out of the dining hall.

"Brother Yu, why did you suddenly leave for so many days?" Yan Shiyao sat down, poured a glass of water with a smile and handed it to Xuan Yanyu.
