Bai Xihe looked at Su Cheng in a daze. “What… did you just say?”

Su Cheng asked solemnly again, “Bai Xihe, are you coming with me?”

He had suffered many injuries and was in a sorry state. Even the corners of his mouth were bruised.

However, he was good-looking and had the aura of a bully.

He looked nonchalant, but his eyes were deep and persistent.

Bai Xihe’s heart beat violently.

Her eyes turned red and a lump formed in her throat.

Could she really… leave this deep palace that had trapped her for twenty years?

She had known since she was young that she was just a pawn of the Guo family.

Behind the luxurious clothes and food was eternal loss of freedom.

As time passed, even she felt that she was not worthy of redemption.

She asked slowly, “What time… are we returning to the palace?”

Su Cheng said, “We’re not coming back.”

The fear that she had suppressed all night turned into grievances in her heart.

She held back her tears and choked. “I’m the Grand Empress Dowager…”

Su Cheng looked at her. “I know.”

At the Protector Duke’s Estate, Wei Ting was hugging the sleeping little fat peacock and resting.

Just as he closed his eyes, Wei Liulang’s voice sounded outside. “Little Seven! Little Seven! Something big has happened!” Wei Ting opened his eyes.

Su Xiaoxiao turned over in his arms.

Wei Ting frowned. Sixth Brother was too insensible to disturb the little fat peacock’s sleep.

“Little Seven, Little Seven, come out quickly!” Wei Liulang knocked on the door.

Su Xiaoxiao asked in a daze, “What’s wrong?”

Wei Ting looked at the door that was trembling from Sixth Brother’s slap and sighed helplessly. He said softly, “Sixth Brother is looking for me. Sleep first.

I’ll go out for a while.”

Su Xiaoxiao replied vaguely, “Alright.”

Wei Ting went to open the door for Wei Liulang and walked out. He closed the door behind him and whispered, “Sixth Brother, it’s almost midnight.”

“I know! Something big happened!”

“He did go out, but… Aiya, it’s not him! It’s your father-in-law, the Protector Duke!”

The matter had to start with Wei Liulang stalking Xiao Shunyang.

After being mocked by his brothers, Wei Liulang learned his lesson and decided to get back at them no matter what.

He guarded outside the Second Prince’s residence.

In the middle of the night, Xiao Shunyang quietly left the residence.

He followed Xiao Shunyang. He thought that Xiao Shunyang was going to meet up with that dark force, but who would have thought that Xiao Shunyang would enter the palace?ÚpTodated 𝒏ov𝒆ls on 𝒏o(v)𝒆l()bin(.)c𝒐m

Thinking that Xiao Shunyang had most likely entered the palace to secretly visit Emperor Jing Xuan to understand his true condition, Wei Liulang did not follow him and waited for him to come out.

Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, the first to come out was actually the Protector Duke.

Uh… He didn’t remember the Protector Duke going in… Where did he come from?

That was not the point.

The main point was that the Protector Dåke seemed to have fought with someone in the palace and his face was injured.

He could not expose himself at the entrance of the palace, so he did not greet the Protector Duke.

Unexpectedly, the Duke Protector returned not long after and knocked down the inner court experts at the door with a few punches.

Wei Liulang said excitedly, “Do you know where he went? The Grand Empress Dowager’s Zhaoyang Hall! I’ve never seen him so fierce…”

Swoosh!

The door was pulled open.

Wei Ting and Wei Liulang looked into the door.

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Where’s my father?”

The Empress Dowager did not expect Su Cheng to come after Xiao Shunyang left.

Moreover, he had fought his way in. He was too arrogant!

It seemed like she did not have to sleep tonight!

The Empress Dowager arrived at Zhaoyang Hall again with Eunuch Cheng’s help.

She looked at the inner court experts who had fallen to the ground with their hands on their chests. For a moment, she did not know if she should be angry at Su Cheng or these useless fellows.

“Protector Duke, how dare you!”

The Empress Dowager scolded angrily, “What do you think the palace is? Do you know that trespassing into the palace is a capital offense! I didn’t pursue the matter just now. Don’t think that I will always indulge you!”

Before Su Cheng could speak, the Grand Empress Dowager said, “I summoned him back.”

In terms of seniority, Bai Xihe was the Empress Dowager’s niece-in-law.

In terms of status, Bai Xihe was the Grand Empress Dowager. Even the Empress Dowager had to give her some respect.

Su Cheng said seriously, “It has nothing to do with the Grand Empress

Dowager. Everything is my personal actions.”

The Empress Dowager said, “What did you do? Did you offend the Grand

Empress Dowager?”

Bai Xihe said, “He didn’t offend me.”

The Empress Dowager glanced at Su Cheng solemnly. “Then why is he here?”

Bai Xihe opened his mouth. “He…”

Su Cheng blocked her behind him and said to the Empress Dowager, “Empress

Dowager, please excuse me.”

When Su Xiaoxiao, Wei Ting, and Wei Liulang rushed to the palace, Su Cheng had already gone to the pavilion near Zhaoyang Hall with the Empress Dowager.

The surroundings were guarded by palace servants. No one was allowed to approach within a hundred steps.

The three of them climbed a big tree.

Su Xiaoxiao whispered, “What is my father saying to the Empress Dowager?”

Wei Ting said, “The curtain is down. I can’t read their lips.”

Wei Liulang asked, “Little Seven, do you know how to lip-read?”

Wei Ting said, “No.”

Wei Liulang was speechless.

Su Xiaoxiao asked in confusion, “Sixth Brother, don’t you have to keep an eye on Xiao Shunyang?

Wei Liulang seemed to have woken up from a dream. “Oh, right, right, right. I almost forgot about this! I’ll go!”

Wei Liulang jumped down.

In the blink of an eye, he jumped back. “Remember to tell me when the time comes!”

In the Second Prince’s residence, Xiao Shunyang was escorted back by two imperial guards.

He was grounded by the Empress Dowager and could not leave the manor alone from now on.

This punishment was not terrifying.

What really concerned him was her and the Protector Duke!

When did they have an affair?

Why was it the Protector Duke?

Why not himself?

Why?

Why!

Xiao Shunyang staggered back to his courtyard.

He went to his wife’s room instead of his.

He slammed open the door.

It was late at night, but the Second Prince Consort was still awake.

She sat quietly in front of the windowsill as if waiting for someone.

Hearing the door break behind her, she didn’t turn around. She asked calmly, “You’re back?”

Xiao Shunyang walked over coldly and walked around to her. “Did you inform Imperial Grandmother?”

“Yes.”

The Second Prince Consort admitted openly.

Xiao Shunyang said hatefully, “You’re really scheming!”

The Second Prince Consort laughed self-deprecatingly. “What did I scheme against? Did I hold a knife to your neck and force you to look for her? Or did I force my husband to pine after another woman? You should thank me for stopping you in time and not letting you commit an unforgivable sin!”

“Unforgivable…”

Xiao Shunyang laughed loudly. “Why is my sincerity unforgivable?”

The Second Prince Consort’s heart felt like it was being pricked by needles.

“You only remember your sincerity. What about that of others?”

Xiao Shunyang waved his sleeve. “What does it have to do with me? I only want her… I only want her…” He stumbled out.

The Second Prince’s wife finally couldn’t take it anymore and held her aching heart tightly.

She closed her eyes and hot tears fell..
