Shen Ruhui stayed in Xie Xun's yard. Although the two seldom spoke when they met, Liu Xuan came to the Duke Ping's Mansion more frequently because of this. As a result, Xie Xun had no way to go out to visit brothels and have a drink.

Duke Ping actually liked Liu Xuanlai very much. After all, when he came, Xie Xun became much more obedient.

Liu Xuan is obviously the one who can defeat Xie Xun.

However, the most important reason was that he was happy to see Liu Xuan getting closer to his niece and granddaughter.

With Liu Xuan's ability, if he is promoted this time, he will definitely have a good future in the court. With him assisting Su Juan, even if something unexpected happens to her in the future, she won't have to worry too much.

Song Qianhang also came once, but left soon. He seemed to be very busy recently, and even Su Juan noticed it.

In the court, various forces were fighting fiercely. What's worse, some people wanted to see the Zhongzheng official Wu Yuanhou in order to arrange a good future for their children or to get close to Wu Yuanhou, but they were all turned away.

Who would have thought that at this advanced age, after having been raised in the palace for so many years, he could be re-employed by His Majesty.

At the same time, the emperor's birthday was approaching, and the Ministry of Rites was busy with it.

In order to prepare a birthday gift that would please the emperor, King Han sent a number of people to prepare it, and eventually the gifts were transported back to the capital.

In previous years, Song Qianfan was in charge of this matter at Prince Jing's Mansion. However, this year, since his eldest son really disappointed him, Prince Jing handed it over to Song Qianhang.

This is a good opportunity to appear before the emperor and win his favor.

Because of this, Princess Jing and Prince Jing had a quarrel again. They felt that a woman who could allow her eldest son to return to the throne was the best choice.

As a result, Song Qianfan disliked Song Qianhang even more.

Recently, he discovered that his younger brother went out more frequently. He used to be close to Xie Xun and other playboys, but now he frequently interacts with people from the Imperial College.

To this end, he arranged two people to keep an eye on Song Qianhang, while he himself was planning how to regain the Holy Heart.

On the day of the emperor's birthday, all officials came to pay homage to the emperor. Su Juan's seat should have been at the back, but someone had instructed her to sit very close to the front. As a result, even though she wanted to eat and drink to her heart's content or pretend not to be there, she was unable to do so because people would talk to her from time to time.

Just as Su Juan was about to put the food into her mouth, someone came to talk to her. After she had finally finished talking, another person came. She was about to get angry, so much so that at this moment, Bai Ziling, the grandson of Marquis Wuyang, turned around and was about to talk to Su Juan, but saw her stuffing a large piece of cake into her mouth as if to vent her anger.

Su Juan's cheeks were puffed up, like a little rabbit swallowing food, so adorable that Bai Ziling couldn't help laughing.

Su Juan: "......"

【Why are you laughing at me? 】

Hearing this, many people looked over.

The Minister of Rites frowned, his Majesty hasn't arrived yet, but this official is so greedy and out of control, it's really inappropriate!

Someone laughed and shouted at Su Juan, "Yuanwailang, have you been hungry for hundreds of years?"

The way he eats looks like he has been hungry for hundreds of years.

Su Juan heard the sarcasm in the other person's words. She chewed a few times, swallowed it, ignored the mocking person, and looked at Bai Ziling, "Who are you, and why did you laugh at me just now?"

She looked at Bai Ziling several times and made sure that she had never seen this person before.

Bai Ziling immediately gave his name, "Miss Su, my surname is Bai, my name is Ziling, and my residence is the Wuyuanhou Mansion."

Su Juan blinked, [So he is the grandson of Wu Yuanhou. ]

Many people looked over. You know, Su Juan had caused others to copy scriptures for the Li family member who committed suicide in the mansion. Now Bai Ziling was talking to Su Juan. Was he looking for revenge with her?

Due to his disabled legs, Bai Ziling seldom goes out and doesn't like to talk much. His temperament is much gentler than that of ordinary people, and he can even be said to be a little timid. He doesn't like to show up in crowded places. His appearance here at this moment also surprised many people.

Su Juan: "I've heard of you."

[I didn't expect that such a small person could blind Lord Li's son.]

If she remembered correctly, Lord Li's son was a very strong man, otherwise Bai Ziling would not be so suppressed on a daily basis.

Bai Ziling smiled, "I have heard of you, too. I think you are amazing. You are a woman, but you are able to serve the court."

Especially her words that day, which expressed the grievances in the hearts of military generals all over the world and vindicated the reputation of his Wuyang Marquis Mansion. Both his grandfather and himself were very grateful to her.

As the two were talking, several pairs of eyes were staring at them, among which Song Qianhang's was the most obvious.

Looking at this scene, Marquis Wuyang felt very relieved. His grandson was born by his daughter-in-law on the battlefield. He was affected by the war and injured his legs since childhood, and suffered from leg diseases for the rest of his life.

At first, he brought his grandson back to the capital. His grandson was very willing to go out. After all, the people who talked to him in the past were all the soldiers in the army.

After returning to the capital, I can finally play with people of my own age.

However, due to his leg disease, his peers not only laughed at and despised him, but also excluded him. Some even went so far as to call him a bastard without a father or a mother.

From then on, he became taciturn and never went out unless he went to the study to buy books, and he no longer made close friends with people of his age.

There were so many banquets in the capital, but his grandson never went. Marquis Wuyang originally thought that as long as his grandson was safe, it would be enough. After all, being alive is the greatest blessing in misfortune.

But he never expected that something like that would happen later. Those people demanded his grandson to pay with his life. From then on, his grandson was unwilling to step out of the house again.

The old man was heartbroken and helpless.

Until that day, the former subordinates in the army came to the mansion with great interest and told what happened in the morning court that day. Su Juan's remarks really expressed the sadness of them, the generals, and also denounced those hypocritical civil servants who were fanning the flames.

Since then, the grandson has developed a great interest in Su Juan and often asked people to inquire about Su Juan's affairs. He would laugh every time he listened.

Now, she was willing to go out, and he could guess that she wanted to come and see Su Juan, whom he had only heard of but never seen.

Marquis Wuyang's eyes were sore and he wiped away his tears. His grandson had changed so much. Even if the girl had been divorced, as long as his grandson liked her, he would agree. What's more, Su Juan didn't seem to mind Bai Ziling's lame leg. He didn't know how happy he was at this moment.

At this time, others also realized that Bai Ziling was not going to settle the score with Su Juan. His eyes were almost shining when he looked at Su Juan, and it was obvious that he liked the girl.

On the side, a cold light flashed across Song Qianfan's eyes and a sneer appeared on his lips. A cripple dared to covet this prince's things.
