Inside the War King's mansion, Qian Youxue lay on a chair, admiring the moon and stars, eating fruit, being served, and chatting with two handsome men beside her.

My mood is, to say the least, incredibly good.

Even Mei'er and Yunhe were all smiles, and Leng Mo and Leng Yu also unusually came out from the shadows and stood on the side.

The two felt that since Granny Zhou left, the style of the Prince's Mansion had changed a lot, perhaps influenced by the Princess Consort, and it was no longer as restrictive as before.

"Cold-hearted, Leng Yu, go get a stool and sit down. I don't need any door gods here." Qian Youxue was in a good mood and everyone was pleasing to the eye.

Leng Mo and Leng Yu looked at Bu Yu, who smiled and said, "Since the Princess has spoken, why aren't you going!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" the two said in unison, then rushed into the small hut next door, grabbed a stool, and sat down.

Strange, everyone else was here all afternoon, so why was that guy content to just stay inside?

Unable to resist, she kept glancing at the courtyard gate, but instead of seeing the certain devil, she saw Leng Qing rushing in.

"Your Majesty, news has spread from the palace concerning the Qian family," Leng Qing said truthfully, glancing at Leng Mo and Leng Yu sitting not far away.

What's going on?

Why are they sitting in the courtyard with their master?

"Speak! Bring Leng Mo a stool, and Leng Yu, pour Leng Qing a cup of tea so she can drink slowly." Qian Youxue said lazily, and even yawned a big yawn. She had only just gotten up, so why was she sleepy again?

Leng Qing blinked at Leng Yu, somewhat bewildered. Leng Yu smiled and went up to serve Leng Qing a cup of tea. Then, Leng Mo's stool arrived.

She sat down and finished her tea in one gulp—a treatment she never received from the prince. Looking at Mr. Bu Yu and Young Master Wu Xie, both wore gentle smiles; sitting there was truly a pleasure. Composing herself, she recounted the information she had gathered from the Crown Prince's residence.

hehe……

Qian Youxue laughed unkindly after hearing this. The Qian family had truly lost face because of this good-for-nothing Qian Yingxue.

However, with such a major incident, her grandmother's heart would likely be broken once again. But her adoptive father's attitude surprised her quite a bit.

Suddenly, I remembered what my grandmother had said. I never imagined that my selfish stepfather still had a sense of family honor. I wonder if my grandmother had told him about my true identity?

"Your Highness wanted me to ask Your Highness what your plans are regarding the Prime Minister?" Leng Qing then revealed the purpose of her visit.

Unexpectedly, before Qian Youxue could speak, Wuxie spoke up angrily: "The Qian family is a den of wolves! That old bastard Qian Sheng used to be so harsh on you, and now he regrets it. That old bastard, I really want to stew him!"

Well……

And yet, the way the young master swore was still so charming!

Leng Qing and Leng Yu were reluctant to blink, while Bu Yu burst into laughter at Wu Xie's indignant expression.

Seeing the young master so angry, Yunhe quickly offered him a cup of tea: "Times have changed. You yourself said he's an old bastard. An old bastard is no good if you stew him. Young master, please calm down, please calm down!"

Pfft!

Qian Youxue choked on a mouthful of water and tears almost welled up in her eyes. Is this how you comfort someone?

After all, he was his father in name only. For the sake of his grandmother and biological father, she couldn't just stand by and watch him die. At least, he knew he had turned back from the wrong path.

Seeing that Young Master Wuxie disliked the Qian family so much, Mei'er said weakly, "Young Master, not everyone in the Qian family is a bad person. The old lady is a very kind person."

“Yes, yes, Sister Mei’er is right. Grandmother is the best person. Without Grandmother, I don’t know how many times I would have died.” Qian Youxue nodded in agreement, then paused and said, “Even if we don’t care about the monk, we should care about the Buddha. Grandmother only has this son left. If something happens to him, Grandmother will be so heartbroken. Wuxie, the Qian family doesn’t owe me anything, but I owe Grandmother too much.”

Wu Xie's anger gradually subsided after hearing this. He naturally knew how good the Qian family matriarch was to You Xue. Previously, the matriarch was unable to manage many things due to her health. Now that she was better, she naturally had to step in and take charge.

"Leng Qing, go and tell the Prince what I said. We'll see what he does," Qian Youxue said calmly.

"Yes, this servant will go right away." Leng Qing hadn't expected that the princess's thoughts were similar to the prince's guess, so she accepted the order and left.

Qian Youxue yawned again, glanced at Wuxie out of the corner of her eye, smiled mischievously, and then lazily asked, "Wuxie, what are you going to do with that girl from the Hua family?"

Wu Xie's face darkened. Now that he knew the relationship between the Hua family and the Empress Dowager, proposing marriage at this time would be harmful to the little girl.

"After Miss Hua returned to the manor, she was summoned to the Empress Dowager's palace." Bu Yu originally didn't want to say this, but after thinking about it, he felt that it wouldn't be good not to say it.

"What?" Wu Xie stood up straight.

Qian Youxue's expression also turned ugly, and she said with self-reproach, "It's all my fault for being so careless. That old bastard let Yujie in. He must have seen her getting too close to me."

"Your Highness, please don't worry too much. The Prince has already had people watching over Miss Hua. He just didn't want to disturb you, so he didn't let us tell you." Leng Yu stood up excitedly. Her master's affection for the princess was not just superficial; he had thought of almost everything that could be thought of.

Hearing Leng Yu's words, Qian Youxue and Wu Xie's expressions softened slightly. However, staying under the old hag's nose was ultimately not a good thing; they had to find a way to get that little girl out.

"Master, please take care of your health," Yunhe reminded him from the side.

Qian Youxue didn't listen. Her little mouth was agape and her mind was racing. Looking at the stars in the sky, she wished she could set fire to the old hag's palace.

"Your Majesty, the Second Master of the Hua family, Hua Duanli, requests an audience!" a guard suddenly reported.

"Please let him in!" Qian Youxue knew that this Second Master had always treated Yu Jie like his own daughter, but she never expected him to visit the War King's Mansion at night.

hehe……

Bu Yu smiled faintly and said, "I didn't expect Second Master Hua to be so adept at climbing walls?"

"Second Master Hua probably cares about Yu Jie even more than her own father. He's probably out of options, otherwise he wouldn't have risked coming to the Prince of Zhan's mansion for help," Qian Youxue said, expressing her guess.

Bu Yu agreed with what the princess said and nodded, saying, "Second Master Hua has always acted differently from ordinary people and doesn't like to be bound by any official position."

“This servant also thinks that Master Hua is a person worth befriending. He has a wide circle of friends, is skilled in medicine, and has a good character. He has also secretly helped our master before,” Yunhe added from the side.

In this way, Wu Xie had some expectations for this Second Master Hua. As long as the Hua family didn't completely side with the old hag, things would be much easier.
