"Sister Yunxian, it's so late, I shouldn't bother you, but grandma suddenly fainted..."
At night, a carriage was driving from Yongding Marquis' Mansion to Liang Guogong's Mansion.
Liang Qianqian was sitting next to Xia Yunxian at the moment, with anxiety written all over her face.
"The Duke's wife's condition has stabilized a lot, but what happened?"
Xia Yunxian found it strange that she had just checked the pulse of the Duke's wife a few days ago and found no signs of deterioration.
Liang Qianqian's eyes flashed, and she hesitated for a long time before speaking, "Actually, it's because of my uncle..."
Listening to her slow words, the carriage soon arrived at the Duke's Mansion.
At this time, there was a heavy atmosphere in the courtyard. The old Duke had a gloomy face, while the eldest son of the Liang family was kneeling in the center with his back straight and a few strands of hair hanging from his temples, looking a little embarrassed.
He obviously just married his daughter-in-law not long ago, and the joy has not completely dissipated, but he looks much older.
"Oiran?! How old are you, and you still imitate those young men to find oirans!"
"My Liang family will lose all face by you! See if I don't beat you to death——"
The old prince heaved his chest and gestured to pick up the stick on the side to hit the Liang family uncle. No one among the grandchildren dared to pull him.
There was only a muffled groan, and the uncle of the Liang family received the blow firmly. He was a martial arts practitioner and was already strong, but his burly body trembled, and he gritted his teeth and did not dare to make a sound.
It turned out that someone invited him to have a drink yesterday. Unexpectedly, he stayed up all night without any news. It was not until he was sent back that he found out that he had gone to the Flower House and passed out drunk on the bed of the courtesan Yang Xiaoxiao!
The Duke's wife was so angry that she fainted on the spot. At this moment, the whole house was in chaos!
"I don't know what's going on. I just went to the theater to listen to music and drink, but when I opened my eyes again..." The uncle of the Liang family also felt wronged. The Duke was right, he was already married to his daughter-in-law. There is no way I would do such a ridiculous thing!
He only married one wife and never took any concubines. The Liang family was a strict family and they only wanted to go to the battlefield to defend Dongling. Who would have expected that when he came here, such a ridiculous and generous thing would happen!
"Grandpa, the Crown Prince's wife has already gone in to check my grandmother's pulse. She will definitely be fine. Qianqian thinks there must be a misunderstanding. It would be better to ask the kind person who sent my uncle back."
Only Liang Qianqian had the courage to intercede for Mr. Liang at this time. A breeze blew by, and Xiao Wu appeared in front of everyone with a smile, "Miss Liang, are you calling me?"
She frowned immediately, why did the secret guard in front of her look familiar.
Wait, doesn’t he always follow Unzen’s sister?
"Actually, Your Majesty, there is no need to get too angry. There is someone else who should have a headache. Uncle Liang was set up and this matter has nothing to do with him!"
Xiao Wu pretended to be secretive, "I can testify that Mr. Liang was drugged in the theater and then sent to the oiran's couch!"
The Liang family's uncle suddenly raised his head gratefully. Fortunately, someone testified. Wouldn't this clear his name?
Unexpectedly, another sap hit him!
"What's there to be thankful for! You should feel ashamed. If you were on the battlefield, wouldn't you be kidnapped to the enemy's camp?"
Liang Guogong cursed again. It was not until Xia Yunxian came out of the house that he shook off the stick and approached, "Mrs. Crown Prince, how is my wife?"
"The Duke's wife was just frightened, nothing serious. Let her drink a bowl of tea to calm her shock and have a good rest. She will definitely recover as before."
With her words, the old man was relieved. At this moment, Xia Yunxian was already eye-to-eye with Xiaowu. She was suddenly startled. It turned out that he was the kind person Miss Liang mentioned?
How did he know that Uncle Liang was in the flower house?
"Let the Crown Prince laugh..." The old Duke frowned, and Xia Yunxian also understood that after such a thing happened, the Duke's Mansion accepted her for treatment, obviously not treating her as an outsider.
"My lord, you might as well think about it, have you offended anyone in recent days?"
She warned, no matter how you think about it, there is something fishy about this matter!
"Our Liang family has offended many people." Liang Qianqian curled her lips and didn't know which person to start with.
The old prince was an upright man and never formed cliques. Many people tried to flatter him but it was useless, and they all became angry in the end!
"Yes, I'd better think about it carefully!" Xiao Wu couldn't help but interjected, and was immediately looked at deeply by Xia Yunxian, who felt that things were not that simple.
Is it just to ruin the reputation of the Duke's government?
This kind of petty quarrel is not interesting.
Unexpectedly, at this time, a guard from the Liang Mansion came to the crowd with a solemn face and glanced at Xia Yunxian hesitantly.
"For the record, Duke, news came from Yihong Mansion just now, saying that Prince Liu had a conflict with someone over the oiran Yang Xiaoxiao, and he was beaten to death. He is now being taken away!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Xia Yunxian in shock, and the atmosphere became extremely awkward.
Yang Xiaoxiao?
Why is it this oiran again!
At this time, Xia Yunxian had already looked at Xiao Wu inquiringly, and the other party smiled coquettishly.
"When I went to rescue people, I happened to meet Liu Shizi, and I happened to see him being jealous with other male guests. Maybe he failed to beat the crown prince's wife in the palace today, so he went to the flower building to vent his anger."
"What?! Sister Yunxian, did he hit you?" Liang Qianqian was the first to react and immediately pulled Xia Yunxian to look up and down.
Everyone in the Duke's Mansion also had angry expressions on their faces, "This is unreasonable. The Crown Prince's wife is the benefactor of our Liang family. Where does Liu Chengyu have the courage?"
Even the kneeling uncle of the Liang family was so angry that he almost didn't pull out his long sword!
Xia Yunxian didn't know where to start. She clearly felt that Xiao Wu did it on purpose.
She suddenly remembered Bai Yujing's words. She didn't expect that such embarrassing things would come one after another. Could there be any connection between Liu Chengyu and the Liang family uncle?
"Prince Liu's moral character is lacking and he is not worthy of the Crown Prince's wife."
Everyone suddenly fell silent when Liang Guogong suddenly spoke with deep meaning. This was Xia Yunxian's housework, but Liu Chengyu was so ridiculous that even they couldn't stand it!
"Sister Yunzen, no matter what happens, we will support you!"
Liang Qianqian had a cold face and barely said the words "heli".
Xia Yunxian was moved, and then she said a few words about taking care of the Duke's wife, then said goodbye and left.
"Qianqian, if you hear something in the teaching hall, don't hide it from your grandfather. You must not let the Crown Prince's wife be wronged!"
Liang Guogong has a feeling that Xia Yunxian is not that kind of cowardly person. I am afraid that she has her own plans.
