When Empress Xian returned to Qixiang Palace, she was so angry that she couldn't eat.

"How do you do things!"

She scolded Liu Sande angrily.

Liu Sande was wrongly accused and died: "My queen... Qin Jiang's guards did tell me this... I don't know how things turned out like this."

Concubine Xian said coldly: "Useless thing!"

I don't know whether he was scolding Qin Jiang or Liu Sande.

"Who has displeased Mother?"

Xiao Chonghua walked in with a smile.

Seeing her son, Empress Xian's anger finally subsided. She glared at Liu Sande, who was kneeling on the ground, and snorted, "Get out now!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Liu Sande quickly got up and walked out.

Nanny Gui took the rest of the palace maids out as well.

Xiao Chonghua sat down next to Concubine Xian and asked gently, "Why did mother get so angry?"

Empress Xian hesitated for a moment and said, "Forget it, it doesn't hurt to tell you."

She told her about Qin Jiang's coming to her for help.

"They kept saying that Wei Ting went to Qingzhou and married the eldest daughter of the Duke of Huguo's mansion who was living among the common people... but when the people from the village came, it turned out that it wasn't Wei Ting at all! Your father is angry! He must be blaming me for making trouble out of nothing!"

Thinking of this, Empress Xian felt so aggrieved.

When Xiao Chonghua heard this, he was shocked.

As a prince, he learned to hide his emotions since he was young.

This is the first time that I have been so rude.

"Mother, you just said... who is the wife Wei Ting married among the common people?"

Empress Xian said, "She is Qin Canglan's granddaughter who is living among the common people...what's her name...Su Daya...wait, it's not Wei Ting! She's just someone with the same surname!"

She held up her throbbing temple and took a deep breath, "My brain... is almost dizzy."

Xiao Chonghua said sternly, "Mother, are you sure you are not mistaken... the chubby little girl from the Xiao Su family in Xinghua Village, Qingzhou... is the eldest daughter of the Huguogong Mansion who has been living among the people?"

"Yeah, it's her, what's wrong?"

Empress Xian was very angry at the moment and did not notice that her son addressed a strange woman in a slightly familiar way.

"Didn't I ask Liu Sande to go to your house and tell you yesterday? Qin Che is not Qin Canglan's biological son, and Qin Yanran is not his biological granddaughter. His biological granddaughter is a country girl who grew up among the common people. Didn't you have no reaction?"

Liu Sande’s original words: The Third Prince is very calm.

What this means is that the Third Prince doesn't care who his fiancée becomes. As a prince of a country, he is very clear that his marriage is a political marriage.

Concubine Xian couldn't guess what her son was thinking. She just thought that he had finally come to his senses and realized the seriousness of the matter. He was right to be shocked.

She gritted her teeth and said, "Damn Qin Jiang! How dare you fool me!"

Xiao Chonghua knew better than anyone that Qin Jiang did not fool Concubine Xian, and that Young Master Wei from Xinghua Village was Wei Ting.

He just didn't expect that the Miss Su who cured his lung disease would be the eldest daughter of the Huguogong Mansion who was living among the people. ——At night.

Xiao Chonghua went to the Jing family.

In the study, Lord Jing dismissed the servants.

After hearing what happened, Lord Jing said shrewdly, "It seems that Qin Jiang has been tricked by the Zhenbei Marquisate. He is too impatient. After all, he is young."

Qin Jiang is the father of two children. He is not young anymore, but in terms of seniority, Lord Jinghou is of the same generation as Qin Canglan and Su Shuo.

He looked at Xiao Chonghua again: "What is your plan, Third Prince? Are you going to expose Wei Ting?"

Xiao Chonghua shook his head: "Not only can I not expose him, but I have to help him conceal Qingzhou's whereabouts. Otherwise, given his temper, he will definitely drag me down with him."

That boy is really capable of doing such a thing.

Lord Jing sighed: "It's a pity that I didn't get the military token."

Xiao Chonghua said: "Please continue to send people to keep an eye on him, we will eventually find an opportunity."

"I will." Lord Jing thought of something else and said solemnly, "What's the matter with Wei Ting's marriage with that girl? Did he really intend to get close to the daughter of the Qin family?"

Xiao Chonghua thought for a moment and said, "Not sure."

Lord Jing said again: "So, that girl is the Third Prince's fiancée. What is the Third Prince going to do?"

Xiao Chonghua looked into the endless night and whispered, "The Wei family and the Qin family... must not marry."

…

Night falls.

The aroma of rice fills the air in Lihua Lane.

Xiao Su's family also started eating.

"I want to eat jam." said Xiaohu.

"Okay, I'll get it." Su Xiaoxiao turned around and went to the kitchen.

Wei Ting shot him a cold look: "Get it yourself!"

Xiaohu's little body trembled.

Daddy is so fierce today.

Xiaohu jumped off the chair with resentment, and shook his head: "The little widow is going to visit the grave~"

Wei Ting's body trembled: "Shut up! Don't listen to opera anymore!"

Xiaohu feels aggrieved.

What's wrong with listening to opera?

He learned so much?

Shouldn't he be praised?

Dinner consisted of cornmeal buns and a double-boiled hotpot. Old Man Su and Su Ergou ate the spicy hotpot, while Su Xiaoxiao and Sanxiao only ate the mushroom clear soup hotpot. Wei Ting was not picky.

The family devoured five pounds of lamb chops, two pounds of ribs, two pounds of pork belly, and a large plate of mushrooms and vegetables. Of course, the three little ones' favorite lotus root balls and glutinous rice pearl balls were also indispensable.

This was not enough to fill me up, so I added some noodles.

The whole family had their fill.

Su Ergou lay on a rattan chair in the backyard, bathing in the moonlight and sunbathing his belly with the three little ones.

Wei Ting went to the kitchen to boil water.

Suddenly, a man in black flashed in.

It’s not the secret guard, it’s Yuchi Xiu.

"Sir, that bastard Xiao Chonghua is going to trick you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the secret guards arrived.

He did not come alone, he was followed by a man in white clothes and a bamboo hat.

The appearance of the man in white clothes and a bamboo hat basically means that Old Lady Wei has given orders.

He said, "Master, the old lady asked you to return home immediately."

…

Wei family.

Old Lady Wei did not eat in her own courtyard today, but went to the small ancestral hall in the mansion, where the tablets of the Wei family's ancestors, General Wei and others were enshrined.

When Wei Ting and the man in white clothes and a bamboo hat arrived at the small shrine, Old Lady Wei had just finished lighting the last stick of incense.

Old Lady Wei did not turn around, but spoke calmly and steadily: "Come here and burn some incense for your grandfather, father and brothers."

Wei Ting followed instructions and went in. He raised his hands, respectfully took the lit incense from Old Lady Wei, bowed to his grandfather's tablet, and inserted it into the incense burner.

"Your father's." Old Lady Wei took out a few more lit incense sticks and handed them to him.

Wei Ting also burned incense for his father.

"Your six brothers'."

Wei Ting also burned incense for his brothers.

Old Lady Wei then opened her eyes and looked at him, saying solemnly, "Kneel down."

The man in white clothes and a bamboo hat held the sword, turned around and stood silently at the door.

Old Lady Wei said slowly and coldly: "I heard some news. It was the Third Prince who sent someone to secretly reveal it to me. Let's not talk about his intentions for now. I just want to ask you, are you really entangled with the Qin family?"

Wei Ting said: "Grandma, she is not a member of the Qin family."

Old Lady Wei said coldly, "Yes, her surname is Su. She grew up among the common people. She has never received any favors from the Qin family, and has never eaten a grain of rice from the Qin family. The grudges between the Wei and Qin families have nothing to do with her. Wei Xichao, you want to say this, right?"

Wei Ting didn't say anything.

Old Lady Wei snorted coldly: "I think you have forgotten who killed your grandfather! If Qin Canglan had not deliberately delayed the supply of food and reinforcements, your grandfather would have been abducted by the people of Beiyan? Qin Canglan used Beiyan to get rid of your grandfather. Have you forgotten this account?!"

"I haven't forgotten." Wei Ting said, "Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor, I will take revenge for what I deserve."

Old Lady Wei leaned on a four-python cane that was almost as tall as a human being. "What a saying that goes, every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor. Now let me ask you, I'm going to ask you to kill Qin Canglan now, will you go or not?"

Wei Ting stood up and walked out without saying a word.

Old Lady Wei's face darkened: "What are you doing?"

Wei Ting said: "Kill Qin Canglan."

"Come back here!"

Old Lady Wei shouted! Wei Ting turned back obediently.

Old Lady Wei was furious: "Can you kill him? Do you really think Qin Canglan is made of paper?"

Wei Ting said sternly: "Grandma asked me to kill him, and I will do it even if it costs me my life."

Old Lady Wei sneered, "You sound nice, but you know I won't let you go!"

Qin Canglan has been fighting with Wu'an Jun for many years. Old Lady Wei knows better than anyone how dangerous he is.

She looked at Wei Ting steadily and said solemnly: "It's okay for you to make trouble in Qingzhou. If it was an ordinary country girl, it would not be a problem to let you stay in the room. But the woman of the Qin family wants to enter our Wei family. I advise you to give up this idea!"

"Is this a dirty trick?"

Suddenly, a soft, childish voice was heard from the open space outside the house.

Old Madam Wei was stunned.

"It's a stone lion." said Yuchi Xiu.

"Can I touch it?" Xiaohu asked.

Yuchi Xiu said frivolously: "Sure, it's your stuff anyway, you can touch it as you like, it doesn't matter if you break it."

A surge of excitement suddenly surged in Old Lady Wei's heart.

At this time, a round little head poked in.

He first looked at Wei Ting, and then at Old Lady Wei.

The little head is tilted.

The threshold is a bit high.

He had to crawl in on his hands and knees.

Halfway up the mountain, he suddenly remembered something and asked politely, "Can I come in?"

Wei Ting looked calmly at the old lady Wei standing beside him: "Grandma?"

Old Madam Wei's gaze fell on the child's face, and her eyes suddenly became moist.

"Come in, come in! Come in quickly!" She threw away her crutches and walked towards the child. She was so excited that she staggered.

Wei Ting held her tightly and sighed in a pretentious manner, "You're just a kid, is that necessary?"

Old Madam Wei glared at him fiercely.

Wei Ting let go.

The little guy crawled in, sweating profusely.

“Hoo~Hoo~”

He also raised his little sleeves and wiped his little forehead.

Old Lady Wei's heart was melted by this cuteness: "You...you are..."

The little guy raised his head and said politely, "I am Da Hu."

"Da, Da Hu? What a good name...what a good name!" Old Lady Wei stretched out her hand tremblingly, wanting to touch the child, but was worried about scaring him.

When Erhu saw his elder brother coming in, he also crawled in.

Old Lady Wei saw another little kid and became even more excited: "What is this..."

Erhu said crisply: "I am Erhu."

When Xiaohu turned around, his brothers were gone. He stopped playing with the stone lions and came in to look for his brothers.

He didn't climb that hard.

He simply spread his little body on the threshold and rolled himself in quickly.

Old Lady Wei was startled, fearing that the little guy would be hurt.

Old Lady Wei asked hurriedly, "Is this Xiao Hu?"

Little Tiger quickly got up from the ground, walked over to his father and brother, and patted his chest: "Yes, I am Little Axe!"

"Call her grandma." Wei Ting said.

The three of them obediently called her grandma.

"Hey!" Tears flashed in Old Madam Wei's eyes.

How could she still have the demeanor of a dignified old lady at this moment?

She was just like an old lady who couldn't walk after seeing her great-grandson.

"Daddy, where is this?" Xiaohu asked, looking up.

Wei Ting didn't answer.

It was Old Lady Wei who spoke with a trembling voice: "It's your family!"

The three of them shook their heads.

Da Hu: "This is not our home."

Erhu: "Our home is in Lihua Lane."

Xiaohu: "Lihua Lane!"

My mother is in Lihua Lane, my grandfather is in Lihua Lane, and my uncle Ergou is in Lihua Lane.

Everyone is in Lihua Lane.

Old Lady Wei said hurriedly: "This is your home...you are home..."

The three of them stepped back together and hid behind Wei Ting.

Xiao Hu looked up and asked, "Who is this grandma? Is she the one who won't let us go home?"

Wei Ting patted the three people's shoulders and said, "No. You guys go out and play for a while, and daddy will take you home later. Yuchi Xiu!"

Yuchi Xiu came over and took the three little guys out.

Old Lady Wei realized that she had just lost her composure, took a deep breath, calmed down her emotions, and said, "Let them go back home."

I could still bear it when I hadn't seen them, but how could I bear to send them away after seeing them?

Wei Ting sighed: "I'm afraid I can't go back now."

Old Lady Wei frowned: "Are you worried that your house is unsafe? I will send more people--"

"It's not that." Wei Ting told the story of how Concubine Xian asked Old Man Su to testify about his whereabouts, but he made Su Xiaoxiao's idea his own.

Old Lady Wei's face darkened: "What do you mean?"

Wei Ting looked up at the bright moon. "It means... she has already made it clear in front of the emperor. The son is hers. If you want Dahu, Erhu, and Xiaohu to return to the Wei family, you have to marry her. And it has to be done through three matchmakers and six engagements, with eight bearers in a sedan chair, and she has to be the legal wife. Otherwise, Dahu and the others will be bastards."

Old Lady Wei: “!!!”
