The princes who were staring at Yu Jin soon found out the result.

"What? Only seven days of confinement?" Prince Lu slammed his fist on the table, breaking the fine rosewood table.

If he made a mistake, he would be locked up for several months, while if the seventh brother made a mistake, he would only be locked up for seven days. In comparison, he is the wild child who was raised outside the palace since childhood, right?

Prince Lu was so angry that he was spinning around: "I am so angry! I was punished by my father several times, and he also stole the woman I liked, but this is the only punishment?"

One foot over the threshold.

"Why are you so angry, my Lord?" Princess Lu walked over lightly.

King Lu was suddenly choked and started coughing.

Princess Lu patted him on the back gently, and when Prince Lu calmed down, she asked leisurely, "Why did I just hear the prince talking about a woman he liked?"

"Cough, cough, cough!" King Lu coughed even more violently.

Princess Lu looked at Prince Lu and smiled, "Are you feeling guilty, Prince?

"Ahem..." Prince Lu stopped coughing and wiped his eyes. "Princess, you heard me wrong. I haven't been out much recently. I don't have any women around except you."

Princess Lu looked at Prince Lu and smiled after a while: "Your Highness, I am truly flattered."

"It's my duty, it's my duty." Prince Lu wiped his forehead and laughed dryly.

This tigress is going to make a big fuss again if she catches her.

He is a man. Although he will not suffer any loss if he makes a fuss, he will be doomed if his father hears about it.

What my father hates most is discord between husband and wife, which leads to unrest in the family. It was my mother who reminded him of this.

The stern expression of Emperor Jingming flashed through Prince Lu's mind, and he shuddered secretly.

One day, the emperor father will no longer be able to control the situation, and he will divorce this evil woman!

When the prince found out about the result, he was extremely disappointed. He had originally wanted to patiently go sit with the Crown Princess, but out of frustration he simply asked a palace maid to go and relax with him.

The Prince of Qi did not say much about this, and he told the Princess of Qi: "You should go to the palace to accompany your mother, and persuade her not to take it to heart, as it is not worth it to hurt your body."

Princess Qi said softly, "Don't worry, my Lord. I will comfort mother."

No one knows a mother better than her son. Concubine Xian was so angry that she couldn't even eat.

It was not a big deal for a mother to give something to her son and he not to accept it. However, once the censors made a fuss, everyone knew about it and she lost all her face.

How could she give birth to such a rebellious son? If she had known this, she would have smothered him with a pillow after he was born, and would not have been angry to death by him.

"Your Majesty, Princess Qi is here."

Concubine Xian breathed a sigh of relief and ordered someone to invite Princess Qi in.

"My daughter-in-law has just found a thousand-year-old snow lotus and brought it to mother to help her recuperate."

"You are thoughtful."

Princess Qi looked at Concubine Xian and said with concern: "You don't look well, mother. Are you feeling unwell?"

Concubine Xian sneered: "It's good enough to be alive!"

When it comes to Yu Jian, Concubine Xian can almost be said to hate him.

A smile flashed across the eyes of Princess Qi, and she spoke softly and soothingly, "Seventh brother is still young, and he grew up outside the palace, so mother should not bother with him. Besides, you are angry and have a bad body. Seventh brother does not know how to feel sorry for you, but our prince does. My daughter-in-law didn't know about this in the inner court, and it was the prince who reminded me...

Concubine Xian sighed: "Without the fourth son, life would be impossible—"

"Mother, please stop talking like that. If you are not doing well, our prince will not be able to sleep."

After listening to Princess Qi's advice for a while, Concubine Xian's mood improved a little. She ordered her maid to pack up a lot of good things for Princess Qi to take back, saying that they were gifts for her granddaughter.

Princess Qi declined for a while, but finally accepted it and left.

The prince has many retainers and the expenses are too high, so with these good things from the mother-in-law, he can sustain the situation for a while.

Seeing Princess Qi coming back, the King of Qi was moved and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

Princess Qi smiled and said, "It's not that hard. It's my blessing to be able to help you, my Lord."

Prince Qi shook Princess Qi's hand and said, "Then you go ahead and do your work. I have something else to do in the study."

"My Lord, please get busy."

Prince Qi walked to the door and looked back inadvertently. He saw Princess Qi enthusiastically counting the gifts she brought back, and he suddenly felt disgusted.

Princess Qi seemed to realize something and looked up.

"My Lord, is there anything else?"

"No problem." King Qi smiled and walked out.

The news that the Prince of Yan was punished and imprisoned reached the residence of the Earl of Dongping.

Madam Feng immediately ordered someone to invite Jiang Si over and said, "Si'er, the prince invited you to watch the parade of the top scholar together, which shows that he cares about you. When you get married, remember to persuade the prince more and not let him do whatever he wants."

Jiang Si smiled: "My granddaughter admires the prince's true nature."

Send a teacher to lead the palace maids?

It’s a pity that she hasn’t gotten married yet, otherwise even if Yu Qi didn’t throw him out, she would have done so.

If the virtuous and kind ways are used to cause trouble for yourself, then forget about them.

Perhaps because he had seen Princess Lu chase Prince Lu into the street and beat him up in his previous life, Jiang Si actually had some understanding of the almighty emperor.

The emperor is not the kind of person who would get angry over these things.

"Admiration?" Old Madam Feng raised her voice, "Fourth girl, you must not be confused. Now everyone in the capital knows that the King of Yan is attracted to you mainly because of your beauty. If you get married and the reputation of being a favorite spreads, it will further confirm this saying, and the rumors will be even more unpleasant."

Jiang Si was surprised: "Does this need to be confirmed?"

Old Madam Feng was so angry that she fell backwards.

Jiang Si stood up and said, "Grandmother, please don't worry. Your granddaughter is not living in the rumors spread by those people. My marriage with the Prince of Yan was decided by the Emperor. It's fine for others to gossip about me behind my back, but if anyone dares to speak nonsense to my face, I will make him pay!"

Mrs. Feng was frightened when she saw that Jiang seemed to be completely unwilling to listen to her advice and was still acting arrogant and domineering.

This damn girl has the look of a beauty that brings disaster, and she doesn't understand what virtue is at all. Wouldn't it be a disaster if she married into the royal family?

"The granddaughter has left."

"Fourth girl, fourth girl--" Old Madam Feng called out several times but Jiang Si didn't turn around, and she was shaking with anger.

Ah Fu lowered his head and tried his best to reduce his presence.

No wonder people strive to move up the ladder. The fourth girl became a princess and even the old lady was helpless. It's really enviable.

The disturbance gradually subsided as Prince Yan was confined to his house, and the sudden death of the foreigner who assassinated the top scholar also brought the investigations of several government offices to a standstill.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is early summer. The crabapple trees in Haitangju are already in full bloom, and the atmosphere of preparing for the wedding is getting stronger and stronger in the Bo Mansion.

It won't be long before the fourth girl will marry into the palace.

Thinking of this, even the servants who had nothing to do with Haitangju couldn't help but raise their heads and chests, feeling an indescribable sense of pride.

This subtle atmosphere did not affect Jiang Si.

As the wedding date approached, she seldom went out and usually stayed in the house to drink tea and read books to kill time, and occasionally listen to the gossip that Ah Man brought back from outside.

This day, when Jiang Si heard Ah Man talking about the news of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion, he suddenly thought of something.

At this time in the previous life, Ji Chongyi had clearly passed away...
