When Wei Junhang saw the Duke of England with a livid face at the Grand Princess's place the next day, he suddenly understood what Shen Xinyan meant by "That's so nice" last night.

"Get down on your knees, you bastard!" The Duke of England shouted, causing him to shiver uncontrollably and kneel down unconsciously.

"Father, father..."

"Don't call me father. You have disgraced me in my life! A prince actually follows those questionable people and takes a mistress? You have completely ruined the reputation of the Duke's Mansion for decades!" The Duke of England was furious. He picked up his crutch and hit him. There was a heavy muffled sound, mixed with the woman's scream. Wei Junhang felt a sharp pain in his shoulder, and his body tilted and fell to the ground.

Shen Xinyan screamed in shock, her heart in her throat, and wanted to rush out to help him up, but she somehow thought of what happened last night, bit her lip, and saw that although Wei Junhang was grimacing in pain, he still climbed up relatively neatly, so she slowly sat back in her seat. However, the handkerchief in her hand was twisted into a ball unconsciously by her.

She had originally planned to behave like a good wife who "discovered her husband had a mistress" today. When she was in a bad mood, she ran to the Grand Princess' room to cry. Her sad appearance made the Grand Princess feel pity and guilt. She was also very annoyed with her disappointing son and scolded him a few times in a rage.

However, she didn't expect that at this time the Duke of England came to visit the eldest princess for something. After hearing the conversation between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law, she learned that her son was studious and had even learned those useless things by keeping a mistress outside, causing a sensation in the whole city. She flew into a rage and immediately sent someone to arrest the "rebellious son".

Wei Junhang only felt a burning pain in his shoulder and gasped. The Duke of England raised his cane and hit him again. Just as the cane was about to hit him, he suddenly heard Shen Xinyan scream, "No!"

The sound was clearly quite sharp, but to his ears it sounded like the sound of nature. The crutch hit him hard on the back again, and his face turned pale with pain.

"Father, please stop hitting him. The prince can't bear it!" Shen Xinyan couldn't bear it any longer and rushed over, holding him tightly behind her, as if she was afraid that the British Guild would hit her again. She suddenly stretched out her hands and hugged Wei Junhang into her arms, with her back facing the furious British Guild.

The eldest princess finally settled down, and then she slowly sat back on the couch. Before Yingguo could speak, she said, "Shen, please get out of the way and let his father teach him a lesson. There has never been such a scandal in the Duke's Mansion for decades. He deserves to be beaten!"

"Father, please calm down. The prince has already been taught a lesson. Please forgive him. He is weak and cannot withstand the iron rod of your thundering wrath!" Shen Xinyan was annoyed that he had been hiding the truth from her again and again. She also wanted to teach him a lesson through the Grand Princess, but she didn't want him to be beaten half to death by the Duke of England.

If something really happens, wouldn't she be the one who would be sad?

If he really did something to let her down, it would be fine if he had an extramarital affair. He deserved it and should be taught a lesson.

But he didn't do such a thing, so it was not worth it to get such a beating.

"Ms. Shen, get out of the way. Today I must teach him a lesson! He has lived to this age, but he doesn't help his parents solve their problems, and he doesn't protect his wife and children. You, you, you..." The British prince was so angry that he pointed at him and cursed.

"Prince, you'd better explain to father quickly!" Shen Xinyan was anxious, fearing that the Duke of England would hit her with his cane again, so she hurriedly urged the man in her arms.

At this point, why don't you tell the truth? Why do you insist on bringing up something you clearly didn't do? Aren't you just asking for trouble?

Wei Junhang's shoulders and back ached, but he felt very happy, especially when his nose was still filled with the fragrance that belonged to his wife. He felt that being beaten like this was not a loss.

Now that he heard her say this, he was afraid that he would upset his father, so he immediately broke away from Shen Xinyan's embrace, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the Duke of England several times: "Father, please calm down, father, please calm down. I know I was wrong, and I dare not ask for your forgiveness. I only ask you not to get angry and hurt yourself."

The Grand Princess looked at him for a moment, then carefully observed Shen Xinyan's expression. Seeing that she was full of heartache, she immediately made up her mind. She slowly walked over and took the cane from the Duke of England's hand, and gently advised: "Don't you see how old you are? Your son deserves to be beaten for making a mistake, but you have to take care of your own body."

"Rebellious son!" The Duke of England was still angry and glared at him fiercely.

Wei Junhang lowered his head and let him scold him, not daring to talk back at all.

The eldest princess appeased her husband while occasionally interrupting to scold her son. It was not until the Duke of England's anger subsided that she winked at Shen Xinyan and asked her to help her son down.

Shen Xinyan quickly helped Wei Junhang up and left quietly.

"Alright, alright, your son is gone, who are you scolding now? I've seen you devote yourself to teaching Lin Ge'er these years, and I thought you had cultivated yourself, but I didn't expect that after all these years, your temper hasn't changed at all."

"Your son is already this old. If you continue to beat him like you did when he was a child, how can you teach him how to behave in the future? How can he stand up straight in front of Brother Lin?"

The eldest princess felt sorry for her son being beaten, but she let the Duke of England do as he pleased because she knew that her son was in the wrong and she also wanted Shen Xinyan to see it with her own eyes so that she would feel sorry for him.

"He should not delay Brother Lin by doing this. If he dares to do it, he should be responsible for it!" The Duke of England was still a little angry.

The eldest princess said unhappily, "This matter is neither big nor small. It all depends on Shen's opinion. If she doesn't care, this matter won't be a big deal. Now that you've hit her with two sticks, you've revealed Shen's intentions."

"Junhang is indeed wrong in this matter, but we can't just let nothing happen because our daughter-in-law doesn't care about convenience. What will become of the Duke's Mansion if this happens?" The Duke of England frowned.

"Who do you think I am? A vicious mother-in-law who is mean to her daughter-in-law?" The eldest princess glared at him. "I have watched coldly over the years. Although Shen is a quiet and peaceful person, she has done her best to educate Ying, but she has not been attentive to Junhang. From what I see today, the couple are quite close."

The Duke of England was impatient to listen to these love affairs, so he turned his head away and pretended to be deaf and dumb while drinking tea.

How could the Grand Princess not see it? She poked him on the forehead in an angry manner, but said nothing more.

It's a good thing that the daughter-in-law cares about her son, but I hope that this incident will not damage their relationship as husband and wife.

***

In the main room of Funing Courtyard, Wei Junhang took off his clothes to his waist and lay on the soft and comfortable bed.

Shen Xinyan sat on the edge of the bed and applied medicine to the wound on his back. Looking at the bruises that had swollen from being beaten, she couldn't help but feel distressed. As she applied the medicine, she scolded him, "Father is such a jerk. How could he hit you so hard? You are not like them. You are a martial artist. How could you withstand his strength?"

"It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt at all. Don't worry, ma'am." Wei Junhang turned his head and smiled at her comfortingly.

Although the wound was a bit painful, he felt happy in his heart!

Being able to receive such gentle care from the madam is simply so wonderful that it makes me feel like I am bursting with joy!

Shen Xinyan's pretty face darkened: "Who asked if it hurts? You deserve the pain! I just hate that my father didn't use more strength and break your leg directly, so that you wouldn't be away from home all day, running outside all the time!"

Wei Junhang rubbed his nose and dared not to talk anymore, just lay back obediently.

Qiao Liu said something quite right, that is - "Women are the most fickle creatures in the world. They may smile at you one moment and turn their face against you the next moment."

Although the lady did not turn against me, she was blaming my father for being so harsh one moment, and the next moment she hated my father for not using more force. She is really fickle!

He sighed secretly in his heart.

Shen Xinyan was applying medicine on him, and somehow she thought of what happened last night. She also remembered that she had asked him to explain to the Duke of England, but he would rather continue to be beaten than explain a word. She was so angry that she pressed hard on his wound, and Wei Junhang immediately cried out in pain.

When he called her like that, she felt distressed again, and her movements became softer and gentler without her realizing it, but she said, "You deserve it! You deserve it! I made you have a mistress outside!!"

Wei Junhang hissed and breathed cold air, and after a while he finally gave her a flattering smile. However, Shen Xinyan became angrier and angrier as she watched him. She slapped him on the back and said angrily, "What are you laughing at? How dare you laugh when you have a mistress?!"

There was a crisp sound of "pop", mixed with the man's cry of pain, which made Qiu Tang, Xia He and Chun Liu outside tremble with fear.

"Sister Qiutang, do you think Madam is really applying medicine for the Crown Prince?" In the end, Chunliu couldn't help but ask.

"Of course I applied the medicine. What do you think the lady is?" Qiu Tang glared at her unhappily.

"But why does it sound to me like Madam is taking the opportunity to take revenge?" Xia He whispered to the side.

Qiu Tang pursed her lips and decided to ignore these two people.

Although, she also felt that the lady was taking the opportunity to vent her anger, there was no need to say this to these two stupid girls.

By the time Shen Xinyan had finally finished applying the medicine, Wei Junhang's back was already covered in bruises and reds. The bruises were naturally the wounds, but it was hard to tell whether the redness was caused by applying the medicine too hard or by being slapped from time to time.

Shen Xinyan couldn't help feeling a little guilty when watching this.

Wei Junhang didn't care at all. He sat up slowly and put on his clothes. When he noticed that she was looking at him, he smiled at her ingratiatingly and called her "Madam" from time to time.

As a result, Shen Xinyan's anger subsided a lot unconsciously.

"What exactly do you do out there? Do you have any shameful identities?"

Just after he had tidied his clothes, Wei Junhang paused for a moment when he heard his wife ask from behind.
