Aunt Mei slammed the gate vigorously, making a "bang bang" sound. Bitao was unable to persuade her and could only worry.
After a while, the gate was opened, and the servant saw a woman dressed like a woman with a murderous look on her face standing at the door.
The woman looked a little haggard, and the servant asked, "Who are you looking for, ma'am?"
Aunt Mei didn't even look at Ji Si, she pushed Ji Si away and walked straight into the yard. Ji Si staggered and almost fell on the ground.
After stabilizing himself, the servant quickly followed him and asked loudly, "Madam, have you gone the wrong way?"
Aunt Mei walked quickly and looked around. There was a three-story courtyard, not big but clean and tidy, with all kinds of potted flowers in bright colors.
There was laughter and children's voices coming from the inner courtyard.
The further Aunt Mei walked, the heavier her heart felt...
The moment she stepped into the inner courtyard, Aunt Mei saw the scene in front of her: Tang Youze was holding a child of about 18 years old with a doting look on his face, and his other hand was holding a young woman.
"Tang Youze~" Aunt Mei's sharp voice echoed throughout the courtyard.
Tang Youze turned his head and looked at Aunt Mei, a hint of guilt flashed across his face.
"Master, I failed to stop this lady!" the servant said, chasing after him breathlessly.
Tang Youze let go of his wife's hand, put down the child in his arms, and then waved to the servant, motioning him to leave.
After the servant left, Tang Youze looked at Aunt Mei. She had messy hair and a pale face. She didn't look dignified at all. He looked unhappy and asked, "Why are you here?"
Aunt Mei saw Tang Youze's attitude and became even more furious. She pointed at Tang Youze's nose and started to curse, "Are you worthy of me?"
"I have followed you since I was sixteen, without any name or status!"
"Then you wanted to marry Chi Ran and left me out. I was your mistress for four years! We even had a child!"
"If Chi Ran hadn't died early, I wouldn't have been able to get in!"
When she said this, Aunt Mei couldn't hold back any longer and started to cry. Her fingers were shaking as she pointed at Tang Youze, "Since I entered the mansion, I have always been a concubine!"
"What about the position of my legal wife that you promised me?"
"Now I feel like I'm getting old and I'm starting to keep vixens out there!"
"Your mother is paralyzed in bed, and I am the one who takes care of her every day. Do you think you are worthy of me, Tang Youze?"
Aunt Mei became more and more angry as she spoke, especially when she saw the woman next to her looking at her with contempt. She rushed over, grabbed the woman's hair, and started beating her delicate face...
“Ah~”
"Husband, save me~~"
The woman's weak cry for help suddenly rang out. Seeing this scene, the child next to her immediately hugged Aunt Mei's legs and slapped her waist hard, "Don't hit my mother!"
"Beat you to death, you bad girl!"
Aunt Mei kicked the child away, and the child fell to the ground, his forehead was broken and bleeding, and he started crying loudly...
Tang Youze didn't expect Aunt Mei to suddenly go crazy. When he reacted, he saw the scene in front of him. He rushed forward, grabbed Aunt Mei's shoulders, pulled her away from her mother-in-law, and slapped Aunt Mei in the face.
Then he kicked Aunt Mei to the ground, pointed at her and cursed, "You vicious woman! Are you crazy?"
Without Aunt Mei's restraint, the wife immediately rushed over and held the child in her arms. Seeing the wound on the child's forehead and the blood on half of his face, she sobbed, "Husband, please let us go!"
"I don't want to live in fear like this anymore!"
Tang Youze looked at the mother and son hugging each other and crying, and a wave of heartache surged in his heart. He strode forward and held the mother and son in his arms, "Don't be afraid, Lan'er, your husband will take you and Heng'er home!"
There was a trace of blood at the corner of Aunt Mei's mouth. She looked at the scene in front of her with sadness and found it particularly glaring. Tang Youze only had eyes for this bitch!
Bi Tao helped Aunt Mei up and asked softly, "Aunt, are you okay?"
Tang Youze turned around and looked at Aunt Mei with anger on his face, "This uncle will take Lan'er into the mansion today!"
"If you dare to make trouble again, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
After saying that, Tang Youze picked up Tang Chuheng and took Xu Rulan's hand and walked out of the courtyard...
The scent of sandalwood rose slowly from the incense burner, and the whole study was filled with a faint scent of sandalwood.
On the couch beside them, the two sat with their knees bent, concentrating on looking at the chessboard in front of them.
"I heard that Uncle Wang is more concerned about his nephew's marriage recently?" The speaker was a handsome young man.
The boy's skin was as delicate and smooth as white jade, his narrow and long phoenix eyes were deep and sharp, and his thick sword-like eyebrows slanted into his temples, adding a bit of heroic spirit.
"Yeah." Gu Qingchen responded lazily.
"Uncle Wang has never asked about the affairs of the Xuanping Marquis' Mansion. Why is he asking for help now?"
Gu Qingchen glanced at the young man, "Your Highness, you lose!"
The young man took a closer look, then smiled, "Uncle Wang's chess skills really impress Cheng Yan."
"Don't be distracted, you can concentrate!" Gu Qingchen leaned against the soft couch behind him and spoke coldly.
Seeing that Gu Qingchen was a little angry, Xiao Chengyan quickly explained, "My nephew is not trying to pry into Uncle Wang's family affairs, it's just that there has been a lot of talk in the capital recently."
"Your Highness is probably not concerned about my family affairs, but the marriage of the general's granddaughter, right?"
Xiao Chengyan touched his head and said with a smile, "Uncle Wang is really amazing. You saw through all this!"
"Sister Tang's marriage is indeed related to the situation in the court!"
"I wonder what Uncle Wang is going to do next?"
Gu Qingchen seemed to be thinking about something, with a slight smile on his face, "Since Miss Tang's marriage is so important, we naturally can't let it fall behind!"
Xiao Chengyan's face was full of black lines, "Uncle Wang, Chengyan doesn't want to get married yet!"
Gu Qingchen gave him a cold look, and Xiao Chengyan instantly felt cold all over. Did he say something wrong?
"I heard that Prince Nanyang will come to Beijing next month," Xiao Chengyan quickly changed the subject, "Xiao Gui will come."
Gu Qingchen didn't say anything, and Xiao Chengyan continued, "Everyone in the capital knows that Xiao Gui loves Uncle Wang. I'm afraid this quiet time won't last long!"
"Your Highness seems very happy?" Gu Qingchen's face was gentle, but his words made Xiao Chengyan feel a little scared from the bottom of his heart.
"Uncle Wang, you are joking. How can my nephew be happy? I am worried about you!"
"Since Your Highness is so free, please copy the "State Governance Policy" ten times!"
"Ah? The nephew is wrong, uncle doesn't want it!" Xiao Chengyan looked aggrieved.
"One hundred times!" Gu Qingchen smiled slightly and looked at Xiao Chengyan with a playful expression.
Xiao Chengyan left with a gloomy face...
The spies at the gate of the Regent's Palace had seen it all, and they all said that the Fourth Prince and the Regent were not on good terms. When the Fourth Prince left the Regent's Palace today, he looked very angry...
