Su Han noticed the strange looks from the people around him, and naturally realized that he might have been tricked.

He looked around for Qin Songfeng, but saw Qin Songfeng stumbling into the hall, shouting loudly.

"We agreed to get drunk! How come the prince disappeared after I went to the toilet? I'm afraid he couldn't drink and was deliberately avoiding me!"

Si was not afraid of offending Su Han with his vulgar drunken talk. In addition, he looked drunk and distorted, which did not seem to be fake.

At this moment, Su Han was not in the mood to figure out whether Qin Songfeng was the mastermind behind the incident. Su Xu took Lin Mengli away, and he had to clean up the remaining mess, even if it was just superficial work, he had to make up for it.

"General Qin, you are joking. I have been looking for you for a long time and I even fell because it was dark and the road was slippery. And now you are so ungrateful to me."

After saying this, he touched the slightly swollen corners of his mouth and smiled bitterly.

Ning Xihua sighed secretly, with such acting skills, the Oscars would have to give him an Oscar.

If she hadn't just watched the whole thing, she would have believed that Su Han was injured because he was looking for Qin Songfeng with good intentions.

But the people around him obviously knew something. Although they did not change their expressions when they heard Su Han's words, they did not believe it in their hearts.

A colleague who was strolling in the garden just now heard the noise in Wenxinju. He thought that it was some undisciplined maid or servant in Prince Duan's mansion who was fooling around behind his master's back. Unexpectedly, he saw Prince Duan, Prince Rui and Prince Rui's concubine from a distance.

Although I was far away and couldn't hear clearly what the three of them were saying, but looking at the tense atmosphere and the figure of Prince Rui dragging his concubine away angrily, even a fool could guess about 30% of what was going on!

Because the noise was so loud, more than one person discovered it. And someone started to secretly tell the gossip to the people in the hall who didn't know the situation, and the news spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred.

Some people originally thought that this matter was too absurd, but now, seeing that the corners of Prince Duan's mouth were obviously swollen from being beaten, and Prince Rui and his concubine who were still nowhere to be seen when the banquet was almost over, they had to believe it a little.

After all, Prince Duan still got a swollen corner of his mouth in his own house. This reason is too far-fetched.

Everyone couldn't help but look at Princess Rui with some pity, who was still clueless. They were afraid that no one dared to tell her that her husband was cuckolded and it was already known to everyone.

Qin Songya still looked dignified and calm, pretending to be unaware of the looks cast at her by others.

After Su Han hurriedly announced the end of the banquet, she did not ask where her own prince was going. She just listened to the maid's whisper and then left with a distraught look on her face.

After watching the show, Ning Xihua was too lazy to stay any longer, so she took Su Bi and left Prince Duan's Mansion and got on the carriage back to Linhua Palace.

In the carriage, Su Bi asked her curiously.

"You helped Qin Songya get rid of Lin Mengli. Aren't you afraid that she will take this opportunity to win back Su Xu's favor?"

Ning Xihua knew what he meant.

After all, in this era, it is normal for women to regard their husbands as geniuses. When Su Xu saw the true face of Lin Mengli and felt guilty about Qin Songya, it was the perfect opportunity for her to completely win her husband's heart and secure her position as the princess.

Without Lin Mengli's interference, and when Qin Songya and Su Xu were of one mind, Qin Songfeng and Yu Linjun behind him undoubtedly became Su Xu's biggest helpers. This incident actually helped Su Xu.

Ning Xihua shook her head and said affirmatively, "She won't."

Su Bi was a little surprised. "You've only met her a few times, and you trust her so much?"

Ning Xihua chuckled, "I don't believe her."

She raised her hand, lifted the curtain, looked at the lights of thousands of homes speeding past outside the carriage, and sighed softly.

"Su Bi, do you know? Many times, many women become the way they are now just because of the environment around them. When everyone goes with the flow, they just accept their fate and think that they were born this way."

Confined to the house, she takes care of her husband and children. She fights for favors and power, and lives a numb life.

She turned her head and looked at Su Bi seriously, the fireworks outside the window reflected in her eyes.

"But when they suddenly realize that they can pursue themselves and live the life they want, they will no longer be willing to play dumb and continue to wallow in the same quagmire."

This was the case with Qin Songya. When she made up her mind to break free from this shackle, she was destined to never return to the days when she was in a trance and put her husband first.

Therefore, Ning Xihua was very glad that she had transformed into the powerful Princess Yuexi, and did not have to struggle like a backyard girl like Qin Songya.

After hearing these words, Su Bi was silent for a while. He reached out and gently stroked her clear and bright eyes.

"So, if one day you find that this is not the life you want, will you break all the shackles and leave without looking back?"

Ning Xihua was stunned for a moment, but still looked at him seriously and nodded.

"yes."

Su Bi leaned over and hugged her, resting her head on her shoulder, and said softly,

"That day will never come."

The tone was still gentle, but full of determination.

Ning Xihua sensed his uneasiness and reached out to hug him back.

"So you have to work hard so that day never comes."

Su Bi lowered her eyes, her eyes flickering.

He would not give her the chance to leave him, no matter what means he used.

He buried his face in her neck, rubbing it back and forth as if he was acting coquettishly, and then he replied in a muffled voice,

"Um."

…

Prince Duan's Mansion.

After seeing off the last wave of guests, Su Han immediately took everyone to Wenxinju.

He searched the Wenxinju inside and out and found nothing unusual. Thinking of the orchid fragrance that made him so excited, he asked someone to check the aromatherapy and found that it was just ordinary spices.

He asked the servants again, and indeed one of them saw Qin Songfeng go to the bathroom, and after coming out he wandered around the garden, as if he was looking for him.

Is it a coincidence?

But there was something strange about this matter. He had just met Lin Mengli when Su Xu ran into him. He didn't believe that there could be such a coincidence in the world.

He was extremely annoyed, but he couldn't find any clues. This matter was like a tangled mess, and he couldn't find the end of the thread at all.

Thinking of Su Xu's warning before he left, he knew that he would no longer be able to live a peaceful life hidden from the public.

Given Su Xu's ruthlessness, he will definitely try his best to deal with him to wash away today's humiliation.

With a gloomy face, he asked the servant behind him.

"Has the princess rested?"

"My Lord, he has already gone to bed."

Su Han nodded and said, "Go to the side yard."

He had to find a place to vent his anger.

In the main courtyard.

"Princess, during today's banquet, news came out that the prince had a secret meeting with Prince Rui's concubine and was caught in the act by Prince Rui."

"Oh? Is there such a thing?"

Yao Yulin put down the comb, a little surprised.

"Where is the prince?"

"I went to the side yard."

Yao Yulin was not surprised, and didn't even show a trace of jealousy.

She touched her still flat belly, her eyes deep.

If it weren't for the fact that she was the daughter of Marquis Weiyuan, Su Han would have wanted to use her to control the Marquis Weiyuan Mansion. By now, she would have probably suffered humiliation and torture like those poor women in the side courtyard.

Yao Yulin raised the corner of her mouth sarcastically.

She knew what her father was thinking, but she didn't necessarily want to be the tool sacrificed for revenge.
