The Old Mu family, who were so poor they jingled, went crazy. It was a time of famine, and everyone was rushing to flee, yet they went out of their way to pick up a little girl.

Chapter 535 Leng Bing Still Has a Trick Up Her Sleeve
Consort Liu was so angry that she kicked the Third Prince out and told him to go back to his residence and reflect on his actions.
Back in his residence, the Third Prince calmed down and realized something was amiss.
He used to enjoy sex, and even at a young age, he was always surrounded by women.
But it's just a liking, definitely not to the point of being obsessed.
Moreover, those women were all his bedchamber maids in the prince's residence.
He usually only messes around in his own inner courtyard.
He always remained clear-headed when he was out, although he couldn't always remain unmoved by temptation.
But they wouldn't do *that* kind of thing right there in a private room at a restaurant.
Besides, if he really wanted to do it, he had plenty of houses in the capital; any place he chose would be more charming than a restaurant.
But for some reason, ever since that day in the palace when he made love with Liu Xiulan, he has been thinking about that kind of thing. If he doesn't do it, he feels hot and restless all over.
It's like being under the influence of a drug...
traditional Chinese medicine?
"Someone! Go and fetch the imperial physician!"
The Third Prince's eyes turned cold, his fingers clenched so tightly they made a squeaking sound. But he didn't expect that as soon as he got angry, a surge of heat would spread throughout his body, and even his eyes would turn bloodshot.
He rushed out of the study, intending to find a woman in the backyard to resolve the matter, but when he saw the maid carrying tea slowly approaching, she looked to have a rather nice figure.
Without even looking, he pulled the maid into the study, kicked the door shut, and impatiently dragged her to the low couch by the window...
Suddenly, sounds of mixed male and female moans filled the study...
At the same time, Liu Xiulan was also scolded; that restaurant was the largest in the capital.
Those dining in the private rooms on the second floor are all either very wealthy or very powerful.
Now, her daughter is naked in a private room, caught in the act by everyone—not just two men, but three.
They have no way to deny the undeniable facts.
After all, so many people aren't stupid or blind.
Liu Xiulan's reputation was already ruined because of the incident where she was caught having an affair in the palace.
Furthermore, Liu Xiulan's reputation has been completely ruined this time, leaving her with no chance to salvage it.
This would also affect the reputation of the other girls in the Liu family, which made Madam Liu and Liu Xuenian very angry.
Lady Liu has given birth to a son and a daughter. Now Liu Xiulan is the fiancée of the Third Prince. As long as the Liu family does not fall, the Third Prince will need the Liu family.
With the Liu family involved, Liu Xiulan, the princess consort, wouldn't run away.
However, Liu Xuenian has several illegitimate daughters who are not yet married and are currently being looked after by potential husbands.
The incident involving Liu Xiulan had a significant impact on these concubine's daughters.
Having embarrassed herself outside, Liu Xiulan returned home and burst into tears of grievance. Madam Liu simply hugged and comforted her, while Liu Xuenian was so angry he was jumping up and down.
"Liu Xiulan, how could a lady from a respectable family do such a shameless thing?"
Have all the rules and etiquette we've learned over the years gone to waste?
"It's all your mother's fault for spoiling you. A proper daughter of the Liu family, yet you act like a courtesan."
"Father, how could you say that to me?" Hearing her father, who always doted on her, speak to her like this, Liu Xiulan burst into tears of grievance.
"Father, I've lost so much face today, I feel like dying. And you're still scolding me? Are you trying to kill me?"
