Bai Ruyue also continued, "I have a hard life. My husband is away from home all year round. I gave birth to two sons and a daughter and raised them with great difficulty. Fortunately, Lord Wei is kind-hearted and took us in because he felt that we had no one to rely on in Beijing."
"If Your Highness is not satisfied, I will take my child and leave. Even if I have to beg for food in the capital, it is better than being abused by others..."
Some of the gazes towards Yuan Zhao changed unconsciously.
The princess said she meant well, but was she secretly targeting the Bai family?
Wei Wanxue also stepped forward at the right time, pretending to persuade Yuan Zhao:
"Sister-in-law,"
"You're too suspicious. My brother hasn't taken a concubine in all these years. Hasn't he given you enough sense of security?"

Wei Shaoqing's words confirmed that everything that happened today was the fault of Yuan Zhao and the children.
Everyone looked at each other, observing each other's expressions.
"You are tired too. Come with me and have a good rest..." As he said that, Wei Shaoqing was about to put his arm around Yuan Zhao's shoulders and forcibly take her away.
As long as Yuan Zhao leaves, Bai and Wanxue will have room to act freely.
At today's banquet, with so many wealthy families present, they all have a say and can proceed with the next plan.
But there was only a very loud "pop" sound.
Some people shuddered and looked in the direction of the sound.
"You are just a prince consort? What qualifications do you have to point fingers at me?!"
