While Mrs. Yun was playing with the bracelet, she listened to Miss Bai talking about how Li Zian cared about Mrs. Tong, and sneered: "His family is really love-struck. I am like this, and so is my son. I fall in love with this person." Women are treated like treasures."
Although her tone was full of disdain, only she knew how she felt in her heart.
Miss Bai lowered her head and did not dare to speak.
After a while, Mrs. Yun brought the topic back and said, "So instead of taking away Mrs. Tong, you brought Yunchang in instead?"
"Madam, I know I was wrong." Miss Bai knelt down and shivered. .
"Since you know you made a mistake, you should try your best to make up for it, don't you think?"
Mrs. Yun's words were gentle, but in Miss Bai's ears, they were like steel needles piercing the bones.
"Yes, everything is at Madam's command." Miss Bai said through gritted teeth.
"You're not needed for the moment." Mrs. Yun said, standing up and saying, "You just have to know what's going on."
After speaking, Mrs. Yun opened the door and walked out.
The servant immediately stepped forward and put a cloak on her and put on her hood.
Shen Yunyao finally saw Mrs. Yun's face clearly this time. She looked gentle and dignified, and she seemed to be a good wife and mother.
I really didn't expect that the person behind Miss Bai would be like this.
After Mrs. Yun left with her servants, Shen Yunyao exhaled the breath she had been holding just now, and she fell to the ground against the door, her whole body weak.
Now she feels more and more that the water here is too deep for Miss Bai.
Should I continue to wade through this muddy water with her? Will continuing to do anything good to me?
Shen Yunyao's mind was in a mess and she had no intention of going out to find food. She lay back on the bed and stared at the tent ceiling in a daze.
After Mrs. Yun left the yard where Miss Bai temporarily stayed, she got into a carriage.
The carriage circled the city and after confirming that no one was following it, it drove directly into the east corner gate of Prince Ren's Mansion.
Mrs. Yun got off the carriage outside the second door. The servants at the door were panicked for a moment, as if they did not expect that she would suddenly come back tonight, and then they all saluted: "I have met the princess."
Yun Xutong understood instantly and asked, "What happened at home?"
Several people at the door looked at each other, no one dared to speak.
Soon, Yuandong received the news that the princess was back and rushed over as soon as possible.
"Your Majesty, why didn't you send someone back in advance to let your servants know when you came back?"
"So that you can prepare in advance and hide it from me, right?" Yun Xutong was already angry with Miss Bai today, so at this time, contrary to his usual gentle and weak demeanor, he actually spoke with a strong tone. Somewhat terrifying.
Everyone else lowered their heads and did not dare to speak. Only Yuan Dong said bravely, "I don't dare. In fact, it's not a big deal. It's just that the prince and the county prince are quarreling again."
When Yun Xutong heard this, it turned out to be no big deal.
The two men are just like the enemies in their previous lives. As long as they meet together, there will always be a time when they don't quarrel.
It's just that the older one doesn't go home very often, and Yun Xutong tries his best to suppress the younger one, so there aren't many real quarrels.
Yun Xutong has returned to her parents' home these days. If the old man and the young man faced each other at home, no one would stop them. Let alone quarreling, it would not be surprising to have a fight.
But Yun Xutong then thought about it, if it was really just like this, the servants wouldn't all be scared like quails.
Thinking of this, she walked inside, and after she was far away from the others, she asked Yuandong: "Tell me, what are they arguing about this time?"
Before speaking, Yuan Dong looked around cautiously, and when he saw that there was no one else, he whispered: "Madam, the reason for the quarrel this time is because the prince drank too much last night and killed one of the prince's concubines. Give……
"After the county prince came back, he was so angry that he went to the prince to argue with him, but he ended up scolding him bloody..."
"How is the situation now?"
"After the prince scolded the county prince, he
He went out to drink again, and the county prince now locked himself in the room and was smashing things in anger! "
Yun Xutong had a headache when he heard this.
This family is really good. I don’t look like me at all. It’s no wonder that my son doesn’t obey him.
"Let's go see Zi Ting." Yun Xutong sighed, turned around, and walked towards his son's residence.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Yun Xutong saw that the courtyard was full of servants who had been kicked out by Li Ziting.
From time to time there were sounds of smashing things in the house.
Yun Xutong stepped forward and knocked on the door.
Li Ziting's angry roar came from the room: "I told you all to get out. You can't understand people, right?"
"Or is it that I can no longer speak in this house?"
"Ziting, it's me." When facing her son, Yun Xutong's voice was always particularly gentle.
The sounds in the room stopped immediately.
After a while, there was another sputtering and messy sound.
Yun Xutong waited patiently for a long time, and Li Ziting finally opened the door in embarrassment.
But he only opened a crack and blocked it with his body, not wanting Yun Xutong to see the situation in the room.
Seeing the bruise on Li Ziting's face, Yun Xutong knew that the quarrel Yuan Dong mentioned was too reserved, and the father and son had obviously taken action again.
Yun Xutong stretched out her hand to caress the injury on her son's face, and said distressedly: "How many times have my mother told you that your father is a lunatic? Don't confront him head-on. Just stay away from him. You kid, why don't you listen?" Woolen cloth!"
Li Ziting lowered his eyes and said, "My son has been avoiding him, but he couldn't help it and sent him to his door to cause trouble!"
"How are you talking?" Yun Xutong was slightly annoyed, and then asked with concern, "Have you taken any medicine?"
Li Ziting shook his head.
So Yun Xutong took his hand and walked out.
"Since you don't want me to see what your room looks like, then go to my place and I will give you medicine."
Li Ziting in front of Yun Xutong was completely different from him in front of Prince Ren.
At this time, like an obedient little sheep, he was led back to his palace by Yun Xutong.
He followed her instructions and sat on the chair, obediently waiting for the servant to fetch the medicine box.
Yun Xutong has done this very skillfully.
"Are there any other injuries?" Yun Xutong asked after applying medicine to several wounds on Li Ziting's face.
Li Ziting quickly shook his head.
But Yun Xutong could tell at a glance that he was lying, and said with a straight face: "Now that you have looked at your father, you have begun to learn to lie to me, haven't you?"
"No, mother..." Li Ziting had no choice but to take off his clothes, revealing his upper body with a few bruises.
Seeing her son's chest and back covered with bruises, Yun Xutong's hand holding the medicine bottle was shaking with anger.
If it was just the father and son who took action, Prince Ren would no longer be Li Ziting's opponent.
Even though Li Ziting gave in to him, he was still able to protect himself and would never let himself be injured like this.
"He asked someone to beat you?" Yun Xutong opened his mouth and realized that his voice was trembling uncontrollably.
Li Ziting originally had his back to Yun Xutong and was letting her check his injuries.
Hearing something wrong in her voice, he quickly turned around and realized that Yun Xutong's eye circles were already red, tears were welling up in his eyes, and his hands were shaking uncontrollably.
Li Ziting quickly stood up, helped Yun Xutong sit aside, and comforted him: "Mom, I just bumped a few times, I'm fine, I'm really fine."
But the more his son said it was okay, the more Yun Xutong collapsed.
"He's your father... How could he let someone beat you..." Yun Xutong hugged her son and cried uncontrollably.
"Mom, don't cry." As soon as she cried, Li Ziting couldn't hold back any longer. "I'll take a few more people with me wherever I go from now on. I won't let him hit me again, okay?"
When Yun Xutong was crying uncontrollably, the panicked voices of the maids suddenly sounded outside the door.
"This slave has met the prince!"
"My lord, you are back!"
Then came the drunken voice of Prince Ren.
"What are you doing here? Why, the princess is stealing someone in the house, are you afraid that I will catch her in bed?"
"My lord, you drank too much!" Yuan Dong tried hard to control his anger, "How could you say that to the princess!"
"Then why are you blocking me?" Prince Ren pushed Yuan Dong away and walked quickly into the room.
Just when she saw Yun Xutong sitting on the couch crying, Li Ziting was naked and half-kneeling in front of her.
A trace of complicated emotions flashed across Prince Ren's drunken face. He sneered and said, "So that's it, you're acting like a mother and son here again!"
"Looks like I came back at the wrong time!"
As he spoke, he spat on the ground and cursed: "It's bad luck to see something like this when you come back.
"I would rather you find a wild man to come back..."
Before Prince Ren could finish his words, Li Ziting got angry. He raised his fists and was about to rush up to beat him, but Yun Xutong held him tightly.
"Ziting, calm down, why are you angry with a drunk person?"
"I drank, but there are some things that I can see more clearly than you!" Prince Ren sneered, "You are indeed a teetotaler, but you pretend to be confused. I don't know who of the two of us is more ridiculous. !」
"Come here, help the prince to go down and rest." Yun Xutong frowned and said, "Yuan Dong, go and cook a bowl of hangover soup for the prince."
"Come on, you!" Prince Ren suddenly shook off the servant who came to help him, pointed at Yun Xutong's nose and said, "Stop pretending to be so gentle and virtuous here, I feel sick when I see it. !」
"What did you say? I don't allow you to talk to my mother like that!" Li Ziting said and wanted to rush forward again.
Prince Ren looked at Li Ziting, then at Yun Xutong, and suddenly laughed.
"Haha, I'm so stupid! Hahahaha, I finally understand!"
Li Ziting was dumbfounded by his smile. He raised his fist and didn't know whether he should fight or not.
Just listen to Prince Ren say: "I thought that your gentleness and virtuousness were all pretending to show me, but now it seems that I am just being sentimental!"
"You two, mother and son, are so disgusting together!"
After he finished speaking, he turned around and stumbled out of the door.
Li Ziting jumped to chase him.
Unexpectedly, Yuandong looked behind him and shouted: "Prince, your Majesty, she——"
When Li Ziting turned around, he saw a flash of bright red flowing down the corners of Yun Xutong's mouth, and then she fainted on the couch.
"mother--"
