Shen Xinyan pondered for a moment and felt that although she and Wei Junhang had been husband and wife for two lifetimes, she didn't really know that much about him.

"Madam, what should we do about this? We can't let Linfu suffer such a great injustice in vain." Whenever Qiutang thought of Linfu's red and swollen face, she even wanted to kill him.

How could they do such a thing to such a young and well-behaved child? Aren’t they afraid of being struck by lightning?

"Of course not. This time I will make Fang suffer the consequences!" Shen Xinyan's face was full of hatred.

It would be fine if he attacked me, but Fang shouldn't have used the people around her as a scapegoat. There weren't many people who had remained true to her in her two lifetimes, and Pingfu happened to be one of them. How could she let him suffer such a great injustice!

Qiu Tang pursed her lips, anger evident on her face.

"Also, let Zhu'er, the girl you brought out, serve Hui'er." Shen Xinyan gave the order, suddenly remembering Shen Huiran whom she brought back.

Qiu Tang slapped his forehead and said, "Thanks to Madam's reminder, I almost forgot about Miss Hui."

As soon as he came back, he hurried to deal with Lingfu's affairs and only had time to hand Shen Huiran to the little girl. If Shen Xinyan hadn't reminded him at this moment, I'm afraid he would have really forgotten about it.

"Should we let Zhu'er serve Miss Hui..." Thinking of Shen Xinya's instructions just now, she hesitated.

Zhu'er was the one she was training to be a maid in the future. Wouldn't it be a bit...

Of course, she only dared to say this in front of Shen Xinyan, otherwise it would only make people suspect that a maid in this mansion was more valuable than a proper girl.

Shen Xinyan understood what she meant, but it was inconvenient for her to tell her her real intention.

Having experienced things in her previous life, she had mixed feelings towards her niece. Now she just wanted to know what kind of personality Shen Huiran, who grew up under Liang's care to her current age, had developed, and whether she had the stubbornness she had in her previous life.

Qiu Tang thought for a moment and vaguely understood what she was thinking, so he stopped asking and went out to make arrangements.

"Fourth Miss, Fourth Miss..." Chunliu's urgent voice suddenly rang out outside. Shen Xinyan's heart skipped a beat and she quickly walked out.

"What's the matter? Where are you going, Ying'er?" When she walked out, Yuanyuan saw the little girl pulling Lingfu and rushing out like little cannonballs.

"I don't know what's going on. I just heard someone outside say that the prince has returned home. The fourth lady ran out after hearing that. After running a few steps, she came back and took Pingfu out." Chunliu was also confused.

The Grand Princess has returned home? Shen Xinyan smiled slightly.

"Don't worry about her, just let her go."

It would be strange if the little girl didn't go and complain to her grandmother after suffering such a great loss today. It's amazing that she even remembered to involve Pingfu.

If she guessed correctly, Fang should have been keeping an eye on the movements of the Grand Princess and must have prepared a set of excuses to redeem herself. But she didn't know if she would have a chance of success when she met Ying'er.

After all, the little girl's ability to tell tales has always been among the best among the children in the mansion.

Xia He also reacted at this time and burst out laughing.

Chunliu was not stupid either. Seeing her wife sitting beside her sipping tea leisurely with a smile on her face, and Xiahe with a sly grin on her face, she finally understood.

The three of them looked at each other and smiled.

Shen Xinyan naturally did not want to let her daughter "fight alone", so she waited until the little girl had finished her complaint before it was her turn.

However, Yang, who had been waiting for Fang to make a move, suddenly became subtle when she learned that Fang was targeting Lin Fu. Then, she learned from Mei Ying, who had gone to inquire about the situation, that Fang had also brought up Lin Fu's affairs at Lingyun Temple, and her expression became even more strange.

"The Crown Prince's wife ordered people to press the woman down on a bench and beat her with a stick. She was beaten until her skin was torn and flesh was broken before she finally told the truth. Madam, what do you think happened to the eldest lady? How could she come up with such a stupid idea?" Mei Yingsi thought about it over and over again but could not find the answer.

Hearing Shen Xinyan's drastic measures, Yang's expression changed slightly.

This Shen was good at talking, but I didn't expect that her methods had become so cruel. Without saying a word, she took the girl and beat her with a stick. Such methods were somewhat like those of the Grand Princess in her youth. They were indeed worthy of being the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. When they got cruel, it was frightening.

I'm afraid that after this incident, no one in the Manchu Mansion will dare to easily provoke the Second House.

But...her eyes rolled.

Shen was plotted against by Fang, and with her current temper, she will not let it go easily. If these two people quarrel, she might even benefit from it.

When she thought of this, she suddenly became excited and ordered: "Go and find out if mother has returned home!"

"Yes, yes. Your Highness just returned home, and the fourth young lady ran away with the child named Pingfu." Lan Ying walked in and said.

"Really?!" Yang was so happy.

Wei Yingzhi is a spoiled little girl who is both rude and difficult to please, but the Grand Princess loves her dearly. Even if Fang is right, she won't be able to explain herself to her.

"Pay attention to the movements of the second room. If you see my second sister-in-law going out, report to me immediately!" she ordered excitedly.

Lan Ying didn't understand, but didn't say much and just nodded in agreement.

Oh my, the first and second houses are finally going to get along. It's worth it that she has waited so long to finally see this good show!

In the other room, little Yingzhi dragged Pingfu along and ran, and soon they knelt in the Grand Princess's room. Wei Junhang happened to be helping the Grand Princess to sit down at that moment. The little girl let go of Pingfu's hand after she ran into the room, called out "Grandma" aggrievedly, and then threw herself into the Grand Princess's arms and burst into tears.

The eldest princess was feeling unwell because of Princess Yonghe's illness. When she saw her granddaughter rushing towards her and bursting into tears without saying a word, she was immediately startled. She hugged her and comforted her, saying, "Grandmother's sweetheart, what's wrong with you? Don't cry, don't cry. If you have any grievances, just tell me and I will take care of it for you!"

Wei Junhang was also frightened by his daughter. If the Grand Princess had not held the crying little girl tightly, he would have gone forward to hug her and comfort her.

However, when he noticed the slightly swollen half of Pingfu's face, his heart skipped a beat and he walked over quickly: "Boy, what happened to your face? Who hit you?!"

He was blessed with a good temper, but at this moment, looking at the wound on the boy's face, the anger in his heart suddenly rose up.

Pingfu stammered, but before he could say anything, Xiao Yingzhi started crying and complaining.

"Grandma, my great aunt bullied me and Lingfu, and even had people beat us up. She also wanted to kick Lingfu out of the house..."

Fang, who happened to arrive, heard what she said and almost fainted.

This damn girl!

"Mother has been wronged greatly. My daughter-in-law definitely did not let anyone beat them. Ying'er, you can't talk nonsense." She did not dare to delay and hurriedly stepped forward to explain.

"I'm not talking nonsense. You just asked people to beat us. Look, grandma, Pingfu's face was hurt by them. They even accused Pingfu of stealing and wanted to kick him out of the house." The little girl retorted loudly angrily, walked over and dragged Pingfu to the Grand Princess.

"Grandma, look at it, it's swollen like a bun, it hurts so much! I'm not talking nonsense!" The little girl felt wronged and angry, she grabbed the corner of the eldest princess' clothes and said with tears in her eyes.

The eldest princess's face had already darkened when she heard her granddaughter's complaint, and when she saw the wound on Lin Fu's face, her face finally turned completely black.

Fang had been watching her expression the whole time, and when she saw her expression, her heart skipped a beat, realizing that it might not be so easy to get through today.

Wei Junhang's face was ashen, and he stood aside with his lips pursed, but his hands were clenched into fists in his sleeves, and the blue veins were throbbing faintly.

No matter how good-tempered a person is, he will definitely not be able to remain calm when he sees his beloved child being treated like this. He has been accustomed to hiding his true emotions with a smile over the years, but it does not mean that he can remain indifferent when he sees his child being bullied.

He knew his daughter, who might be a little willful and a little coquettish, but she was not a liar. And there was Fu, who was the most honest person.

He glanced at Fang who was still trying to identify herself anxiously. If the woman in front of him was not the widow of his own brother, and he had always respected her over the years, he would have punched her in the face the next moment.

The eldest princess had a cold face, but she stroked Lin Fu's injured face very gently. She felt that the little guy shrank obviously when she touched him, and his face subconsciously avoided her hand.

"Junhang, go and ask someone to invite a doctor to check on Linfu." She ordered calmly.

Wei Junhang knew that she wanted to get rid of him, and although he was reluctant, he saw the determination on the face of the Grand Princess, so he had to suppress his dissatisfaction, stood up and nodded. After thinking about it, he was still worried about his daughter, so he gently rubbed her daughter's face, patted Lin Fu's thin shoulders and silently comforted her a few times, and then strode away.

The little girl's eyes lit up when she saw her father, but her little mouth pursed and she started sobbing again. The eldest princess quickly held her in her arms and patted her back comfortingly.

Fang felt heartbroken when she saw this.

Although the eldest princess did not say a word of blame, her attitude towards the two children showed her position - she believed what Wei Yingzhi said, and even if she did not believe it, it did not mean that she would believe herself.

"Mother, I really didn't ask anyone to beat them. It was that mean servant Zhang..."

"Okay, let's talk later. Didn't you see Ying'er was crying so sadly?" The eldest princess interrupted her, hugged the little girl tightly and comforted her softly for a long time, and the little girl finally stopped crying.

"And Pingfu, look, grandma, it's so painful. That bad guy beat Pingfu so hard. If mother hadn't come to save us, she would have beaten me too!" The little girl pulled Pingfu straight to the eldest princess, pouting and saying with grievance.

The eldest princess's face turned colder, and she ordered calmly: "Whoever beat Lin Fu? Find him and beat him with a stick and send him to the manor. He will never be allowed to return home!"
