Fifty-nine poisonous tongue old woman

  The woman who entered was slender and delicate, with a light and graceful gait. Her raven hair was styled in a beautiful coiffure, adorned with golden pins that swayed gently. She wore a brocade jacket and a silk skirt, looking elegant and refined, with every detail meticulously arranged from head to toe.

  Looking at the woman's appearance again, her eyebrows were like the moon and her eyes were like apricots, her cheeks were tender and delicate, although her small face was thin, it was full of vitality and radiance everywhere.

  The woman walked past Bai Hanqing and He Lan's side, without even a sideways glance, her butterfly-like figure walking straight towards the cold and stern man at the main seat.

  "Your Highness, you've summoned me in such a hurry, what's the matter?"

  The woman's crisp and clear voice echoed in the hall.

  Bai Han and He Lan were shocked, their eyes wide with wonder, fixed on the back of the woman above, unable to look away.

  Twenty years have passed, and this is the first time I've heard him speak, and he speaks so fluently, how can I not be shocked?

  Bai Xin straddled Yan Mo's thigh, her hands resting on his broad shoulders, a sly glint in her eyes as she gazed at him with a hint of triumph that only Yan Mo could see.

  Her unassuming posture didn't bring him the slightest displeasure, instead, her affectionate demeanor softened his sternly handsome face. His arm naturally wrapped around the woman's slender waist, and he whispered softly:

  "These past few days you haven't left your room, I'm afraid you'll feel stifled, so let's take a walk and introduce some people to you."

  Bai Xin shot him a very impolite glance. What she said was even more pleasant to hear than what he sang, she had been holding it in for so long, and now that she finally spoke out, it wasn't like they were just pretending to fight!

  She reached out and pinched the base of the man's thigh where no one could see.

  "......?!" Yan Mo's mouth corner twitched slightly. Not because it hurt from being pinched, but where the woman pinched him.

  How could a monk who had endured many days of ascetic practices withstand her flirtations?

  This woman is obviously teasing him. Wherever she pinches, it's his thigh root...

  He grasped her small hand and held it in the palm of his own, revengefully scratching the center of Bai Xinzhu's palm. She wanted him to hurt, he wanted her to itch...

  The two of them were having a great time secretly, as if they had forgotten that there were two piercing gazes not far away.

  Until she was harassed by the man to the point of being overwhelmed, Bai Xinzhi decided not to play with this shameless man anymore.

  She turned her head, and her bright eyes scanned Bai Han and He Lan's faces before asking Yan Moyu with a curious expression: "Your Highness, who are these two? You asked me to come, why didn't you tell me there were guests here?"

  The sentence in front of them left Bai Han and He Lan stunned. Looking at Bai Xindye's clear and innocent eyes, there was no shadow of theirs. The mother and son looked at each other, both wanting to find the answer from each other's eyes. Had they really lost their memory?

  The sentence behind not only made Mo Yan almost laugh, but even Yin Du, who was standing guard at the door, started shaking his shoulders and chuckled. The princess seemed to be fine, but her brain didn't seem to have fully recovered... She had just realized that there were guests here now.

  However, when he caught a glimpse of the cold eyes from the side, Yin Du immediately straightened his back and cleared his throat to shift his gaze elsewhere. Now Wang Fei could hear clearly, this dead woman looked very sinister, don't get caught by her and go to Wang Fei's place to wag your tongue, otherwise, with Wang Ye's fondness for Wang Fei, it's estimated that he would be in trouble.

  She pressed her thin lips, raised her head and looked at Bai Han and He Lan with a clear and cold gaze. She said to Bai Xincheng in a gentle voice: "This gentleman from the University is your father, and this lady is your grandmother. Take a good look, can you remember them?"

  Her face was filled with astonishment: "I still have a father and grandmother?" After a pause, she said casually, "I thought they were all dead."

  Bai Han awkwardly smiled: “......”

  He Lan's Black Face: “......”

  He shook his head at her as if correcting her: "They're still alive."

  "Still alive?" Bai Xinzhen slapped Zhang Dàmǒbā, the tone dragging a bit long, as if she was unhappy that someone else was still alive.

  Yan Mo gave a sneaky glance at the mother and son who were extremely embarrassed. Bai Xintong continued to scratch her palm, making her itch even more.

  If one day her woman is going to drive someone to death with anger, he won't doubt her ability at all.

  "Xian'er?" Bai Han stood up lightly, calling out to the back of Bai Xiner's head in a slightly cautious tone, "I'm your father, do you still remember?"

  Bai Xin turned back, looked at him seriously with her eyes, and then shook her head: "I don't remember."

  Turning her head, she pouted at Mo Yu: "Your Highness, I remember that I grew up in the mountains, when did I have a father?"

  When she said that, it was as if she had existed before her father did, causing Bai Han's face to turn alternately pale and red with rage, yet he couldn't utter a word due to his guilty conscience, and could only awkwardly stare at the back of Bai Xindai.

  Yan Mo turned his face to one side, the corner of his mouth twitched, before turning back to ask seriously: "Doesn't Xie Er really remember anything?"

  Bai Xin shook her head decisively: "I really don't have any impression." Turning back to look at Bai Han's awkward expression, she pouted, "Prince Wang, you say he's my father, how can a father look like this? Is he going to eat people?"

  Cough cough cough ~ The ink on my shoulders trembled twice.

  He wrapped his arm around the woman, resting her head on his shoulder, and covered his expression with her hair. He said softly, "Xian'er, don't talk nonsense. Your parents are the ones who gave you life, how can you forget your own father?"

  Bai Xin said firmly, "But I grew up in the mountains and have never seen my own father. And you say he's my father? I feel like he's come to collect a debt or something! A father as fierce as that? No thanks!"

  "How dare you!" He Lan's anger finally burst forth. Her son, after all, was a first-class university scholar, and it was bad enough that outsiders dared to criticize him, but now his own daughter was criticizing him, even using mocking language - was this still reasonable?

  This scourge will bring disaster wherever she goes before she recovers, a true nemesis and calamity. Now that she has recovered and can hear and speak, she was thinking that as long as she had the Bai family in her heart, she would forgive her and let bygones be bygones, acknowledging her as a member of the Bai family.

  Who knew this beast's old illness was cured, but new illnesses are even more infuriating. He actually dared to say such rebellious and unscrupulous words!

  "Mother!" Hearing He Lan's scolding voice, Bai Han was the first to react and quickly called out to her. He knew what his mother was angry about, and he couldn't help but feel indignant too. However, this wasn't the White Manor, and it wasn't possible for his mother to vent her anger freely. Moreover, the current Crown Princess, his daughter, had already forgotten them, so how could he possibly take out his frustrations on someone who had lost their memory?

  He Lan was so angry in her heart that she completely forgot where they were, and looking at Bai Xinduan's back, she hated to stare out a few holes with her eyes.

  "Han Qing, look at her, what kind of nonsense is she talking about? In this world, which child does not recognize their parents? She not only doesn't recognize you as her father but also speaks sarcastically to you, what kind of reason is this?"

  Bai Han's lips were pursed tightly shut and he didn't say a word.

  Mo Yan's eyes narrowed, and his cold gaze shot towards He Lan's wrinkled and sinister face. But before he could speak, Bai Xintian took a step forward from his thigh, walking calmly towards He Lan with an unruffled expression.

  "Are you accusing me, old lady?"

  He Lan glared fiercely with her old eyes, especially at the smile on Bai Xiner's face, a calm, casual and unruly smile that made her eyes ache with hatred, she wished to stretch out her hand and tear off that smile, daring this beast to be even more rude to them?!

  Bai Xinzhen looked at her with a tilted head, looking left and right, then suddenly touched his chin and said seriously: "Old man, don't be so hot-tempered, or you'll get into trouble.

  Pfft!

  Yin Du, standing at the door, couldn't help but burst out laughing on the spot. Turning his head, a pair of eyes looked towards Bai Xincheng, and he secretly sighed in admiration.

  Is this really their princess?

  He looked at Bai Xinzhu with an expression of extreme surprise, and then immediately looked up at the man in a high position. Seeing that his father had clenched his fist and put it to his lips, he was obviously trying to conceal something, even with a hint of a smile in the corner of his eyes that was hard to detect. Suddenly, he felt a little puzzled. Why did his father look so used to this?

  Grandpa should be shocked!

  Xue Ying also turned his head, but his expression was not as exaggerated as Yin Du's. However, the corners of his cold and hard mouth twitched uncontrollably.

  He Lan's face was distorted after being sarcastically scolded by Bai Xin, the wrinkles on his old face were twitching as if they would fall off at any moment.

  Staring with wide eyes, pointing at Bai Xintian: "You... you... you..."

  Bai Xin's lips curled up, seeing that she hadn't spoken for half a day. With good intentions, she helped her continue the conversation: "What about me? Am I being very disobedient and unfilial? Am I disrespecting my elders? Should I be punished by heaven and struck by lightning?" After a pause, she slightly furrowed her brow. "Please! Old man, I don't even know you. You start scolding me as soon as you open your mouth. I'm not eating from your pot, so why should I tolerate your rebuke? Besides, this is my husband's place. You're an outsider who came to the Duke of Cheng's residence and started yelling. Are you trying to challenge us?"

  He Lan's face turned iron-green, and she felt a surge of blood rushing to her brain, causing her to suddenly stumble backward one step, and her body, which was already somewhat shaky, was about to collapse to the ground.

  "Mother!" Bai Han reacted extremely quickly and ran over to support He Lan up.

  At this time, Bai Xinzhen didn't even go up to lend a hand, but instead quickly retreated several steps back.

  Bai Hanling, worried about He Lan's body, saw Bai Xinyan not helping and standing far away, and suddenly couldn't help but say: "Don't you hurry to come over and support your grandmother!"

  Bai Xin's face didn't change, she furrowed her brow and asked with unusual seriousness: "Are you certain you just want my help and not trying to blackmail me? There are many eyes watching here, she fell on her own, I didn't touch her at all."

  At this moment, not only was He Lan furious enough to vomit blood, but Bai Hanlin was also so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.

  Is this really his daughter?

  Why this transformation, not only can speak, but also eloquent and venomous language, makes people not only shocked, but also has a kind of unacceptable feeling.

  Such a daughter is even worse than that good-for-nothing from before!

  "Blood shadow." Yan Mo Yu suddenly spoke up, calling out to the blood shadow at the door in a soft voice. "Take the old lady to the side room and quickly go invite the doctor to come over."

  The woman of the house said so much, but one sentence is particularly important - this old lady can't get into trouble, what if she gets involved with the Prince's mansion?

  He would accept anything from the Wang family, except for old poisonous things!

  Blood shadow responded, and the expressionless man was about to step forward.

  "It's unnecessary." Bai Han coldly refused. He looked at the man in the main seat, "Your Highness, I've disturbed you for so long, please forgive me, I'll take my leave now."

  Yan Mo pressed his lips together, stood up, and walked to Bai Han's side: "Father-in-law, please don't take offense at today's events. As I said before, the current Ran'er can't remember anyone, and her temperament has changed greatly. If she inadvertently offends you, please forgive her and don't hold it against her."

  Perhaps it was his tone of self-mockery that caused Bai Han's expression to relax slightly.

  "Your Highness, I feel guilty for not fulfilling my responsibilities as a father to Ran'er all these years. I don't ask for anything else, but I hope that in the future, I can spend more time with Ran'er and let her get familiar with us, so maybe we won't have another awkward situation like today."

  She slightly lowered her eyelids, nodded and said: "Father-in-law's request is not excessive. In the future, if you want to see Yan'er, Father-in-law can come to Cheng Wang Fu at any time."

  As long as you don't mind being bored to death, the main gate of Wang's mansion is always open for you...

  Before leaving, Bai Han glanced at the woman who had clearly caused trouble but put herself out of the matter, with many complexities in her eyes. Withdrawing his gaze, he supported He Lan Shi to bid farewell, and let Yin Du lead the way in front, directly exiting the Cheng Wang Fu.

  After the guests left, Xue Ying automatically cleaned up for the two of them, chasing away all the servants waiting in the hall and leaving the space to the two masters.

  Bai Xin sat down in the main seat with a swagger, picked up the teacup that I had drunk from earlier, and gulped down the remaining tea water in one mouthful.

  Talking too much is bad for your throat!

  Watching the woman's movements, Yan Mo's thin lips curled up, and there was no cold hardness on his face. The deep eyes were even more stained with a smile.

  "What are you looking at?" Bai Xue gave him a cold glance and asked with a pout.

  He let out a soft sigh, shook his head, walked forward and took her hand, pulling her up from the seat. One arm wrapped around her waist, trapping her in front of him, he lowered his head and instantly captured her red lips.

  In the past, he only thought that this cherry little mouth was annoying, but today, he found that this somewhat poisonous little mouth was so cute.

  The falling kiss was neither urgent nor hasty, but very gentle. Bai Xincheng tilted her head back and was entwined by his agile tongue, causing her to tiptoe involuntarily.

  Suddenly, she felt weightless, her feet dangling in the air, and was swept into his arms. She instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck to prevent herself from falling off.

  Loosen her lips, Yan Mo turned around and walked towards the outer hall.

  In the bedroom, looking at the man who was unbuttoning his wide robe, Bai Xin's eyes reddened as she fiercely sucked on her cigarette.

  "I've noticed you're quite free these days, what's going on? You're not busy at all?" Let her pretend to be innocent for now, honestly didn't want to get tangled up with him in the daytime...

  Stripped down to just one underpants, and the bulge in the silk fabric was particularly noticeable. He got into bed and directly pulled the woman onto his body.

  "The Crown Prince was ambushed and is now recuperating in the Eastern Palace. The Emperor suspects that someone intentionally plotted against the Crown Prince, so he has ordered all princes and several high-ranking officials to stay within their respective residences while awaiting investigation."

  "So?" Bai Xinzhi raised an eyebrow.

  "So when I'm free, I should spend quality time with you." His thin lips grazed her small and adorable ear, his mouth curled up, speaking with deep meaning.

  As for how to accompany the law, it's just a matter of Bai Xin dyeing himself clearly.

  "......?!" Bai Xin's face turned cold, and she didn't need to be in bed with him, anywhere was fine! She pushed the man's head away, looking at him with a straight face: "So even the Emperor suspects you're a suspect?"

  He can still talk so calmly, if it were someone else, they would have been restless by now, but he actually has the nerve to think about rolling in bed?

  Fortunately she asked unintentionally, if she didn't ask, he was afraid that he wouldn't tell her anything.

  Yan Mo nodded slightly, acknowledging being identified as a suspect.

  He raised his hand and began to remove the hairpin from her head, watching as her silky black hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall, making her body look even more delicate and petite. His eyes flickered with a fiery light, and he rolled his Adam's apple before leaning in to kiss her neck.

  Bai Xin dodged his wolf-like mouth with a quick move, her eyes wide open as she glared at him: "What's going on? Tell me quickly."

  This shameless person, in broad daylight, took her to bed and even stirred up her curiosity without explaining anything clearly.

  Is she worried about him too?!!

  Only Bai Xin knew that she wasn't afraid of the crown prince's life or death, but rather that this matter had something to do with him.

  Being in the imperial court, power struggles are inevitable. Moreover, this man's glory is hard to conceal.

  It's hard to guarantee he won't have some ulterior motive.

  It seems that she saw through her mind, and Yan Mo suddenly laughed lightly and scratched the tip of her nose: "How could it be that you thought the Crown Prince was attacked by me?"

  Bai Xin's subconscious head shake suddenly made him realize something, "You didn't have time to commit the crime."

  She had been bedridden for several days, and the man stayed with her day and night without leaving even to attend to official duties. How could he have committed a crime?

  He just smiled and nodded in response.

  Looking at his calm and carefree appearance, Bai Xintong should have felt reassured, but due to her intuition and the fact that she had dealt with too many criminal cases before, she not only didn't feel reassured, but instead furrowed her brow and asked: "But has someone pointed their spearhead at you?"

  She believed him because she could be his alibi. But just because she believes it doesn't mean others will!

  He is now under investigation, which means he has already been suspected.

  I smiled lightly as before. "No need to worry about me."

  Bai Xin's eyes widened: "You're quite calm about it!" After a pause, she suddenly asked, "By the way, isn't Xue Ying one of the Emperor's people? Why didn't you let her vouch for you and prove your innocence? The Emperor should believe her."

  Upon hearing this, Yan Mo shook his head: "My affairs are not all known to Xue Ying either."

  Bai Xin frowned: "What do you mean, could it be that you really have some unspeakable secret?"

  Watching her tense up for herself, the more he looked at Yan Mo, the more satisfied he felt.

  The woman finally knows how much she cares about him.

  Looking at him still being calm and composed, not even in the same state as her, Bai Xiner couldn't help but grab his collar and shake it: "What's going on? Tell me quickly! I'm dying of anxiety, do you think this is fun?"

  She was so angry that she wanted to get out of bed, but suddenly felt a tightness around her waist and was pulled back.

  "The Shadow Guard is only responsible for my safety, she's not my bodyguard, so there are some things she doesn't know about. It's precisely because of this that the Emperor won't believe her testimony." Seeing that she had lost patience, Yan Mo also didn't dare to hide anything anymore, letting her sit across from him and explaining everything clearly face-to-face.

  Bai Xin calmed down and looked at him, asking: "Why does the Emperor suspect you? Has he discovered some suspicious point related to you?"

  At this time, Yan Mo's expression finally turned cold: "According to the Crown Prince's oral account, the assassin confessed that he was my man."

  It wasn't until now that Bai Xincheng felt he hadn't been fooled by him after all. Such a big thing had happened, and yet he had endured it without saying anything.

  Even on ordinary days, he would find something to do, but these two days, he didn't attend the morning court, didn't go to his study, and didn't read the memorials. He was so idle that she couldn't bear it anymore. To be exact, it was his state that made her feel uncomfortable, which is why she asked him.

  Listening to his words, Bai Xincheng sneered: "That assassin really has no integrity, being asked by someone and confessing everything?"

  He smiled wryly at me.

  Bai Xin glanced at him with a hint of white in his eyes, "What about that assassin, is he dead or captured?"

  "He's dead."

  "Did he kill himself or was he killed by someone?"

  "The Crown Prince has been killed."

  Bai Xinzhi suddenly stopped and fell silent. A moment later, she continued to ask: "Where is the prince injured?"

  Arm

  "How serious is it? Have you gone to see?"

  "Went to see him, but couldn't see his wound. Only heard the imperial physician say that his wound was about three inches long, but not deep enough to see bone."

  "Are there other places where you're hurt?"

  "No."

  "How is the Crown Prince's martial arts?"

  "No need to worry."

  Upon hearing this, Bai Xincheng stopped asking further. Looking at Yan Moyu, she said: "Next time you enter the palace, can you bring me with you?"

  He stared blankly: "You want to testify for me?"

  Bai Xin shook his head: "I'd like to testify for you, but someone has to believe it first. The Crown Prince's assassination attempt clearly shows that someone wants to frame you, I won't just stand by and watch you being slandered. Don't worry, I won't cause any trouble for you, I just want to understand the situation better so that you can clear your name as soon as possible."

  Upon hearing this, Yan Mo's thin lips slightly raised, and he pulled her into his arms, resting his chin on the top of her head, with his palm rubbing against her slender back. He said in a low voice: "Don't worry about me, the Emperor won't do anything to me. There are many doubts in this matter, and the Emperor letting me rest at home is also to keep me away from rumors and gossip."

  Bai Xinzhi raised her head from her chest: "So, does the Emperor trust you very much?"

  "Whatever." He had never really thought deeply about this question.

  Now because of that painting... he is even more unwilling to think about it.

  But Baixin's heart was not light at all. She really worried about him!

  "Do you know who's behind it all?" She didn't believe he really knew nothing, she was afraid he knew everything.

  He let out a sigh on her forehead. Can't this woman pretend to be ignorant for once?

  He lowered his head and suddenly kissed her, taking advantage of her momentary inaction to pin her directly beneath him.

  "Ah ah ah——" Bai Xincheng was somewhat stunned. This shameless person just came and went as they pleased, but their conversation wasn't even finished yet!

  She raised her hand to push him away, but he caught it and pressed it against his side. Feeling the changes under his pants, she rolled her eyes, but also gradually gave up struggling, softening her body for him to manipulate.

  Since she came back from Hainan, they haven't done that for five or six days, and he has been very restrained, which she is aware of.

  As soon as 'Big Aunt' left, she had already guessed that he would definitely not let her off.

  His clothes were stripped off clean and all thrown under the bed, covering the floor.

  Her white heart was moved by him, and even her body was burning with heat. After these days of getting along, she unknowingly had a unprecedented change in her impression of him. At this moment, enjoying the thrill he gave her, she couldn't help but respond to him.

  She learned from his provocative ways and similarly set fires all over him.

  The two of them seemed to be using all their might to please each other, but the result was that they were fanning each other's flames.

  Feeling the little woman under him showing unprecedented passion and initiative, Yan Mo was more than just excited, and having been hungry for several days, he almost rushed in with impatience at this exciting moment.

  That little rascal's usual impulsive behavior made Bai Xin eat his words and was left speechless, only barely refraining from scolding him to death.

  She pinched his arm and bit into his shoulder blade.

  She thinks that in order to have a happy sex life in the future and improve the quality of husband-and-wife life, they should think of a way to learn more about this aspect.

  But... where can I find the textbook?

  Noticing her brief distraction, Yan Mo suddenly slammed into her and grasped her face, covering her red lips with his own, swallowing all the cries of surprise that escaped her mouth.

  Bai Xin felt like a fallen leaf, blown by his strong gusts, higher and farther with each blow, until she trembled in tears, only then did he reluctantly stop.

  Embraced tightly in his arms, leaning against his sturdy and strong chest, Bai Xincheng couldn't help but admit that at this moment, she was completely satisfied.

  He didn't pull away, still maintaining an intimate posture, enjoying the afterglow while gently and patiently kissing her, as if treasuring, comforting, and coaxing her, making her unable to put down all her guard, once again opening herself up completely to him...

  A romantic tryst that lasted from day to night, after a night's sleep, the next morning, Bai Xincheng woke up feeling like all her bones were about to scatter, every part of her body was sore and aching.

  Compared to their previous encounters, this time seemed to be her most exhausting one yet.

  As soon as she opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was the man's rugged face. His deep eyes had a rare gentleness, like the shimmering light on a lake that was mesmerizing. On his beautifully contoured face, there was no sign of his usual coldness, and in its place was a warm and sunny aura. Her gaze lingered on his thin and sensual lips, and Bai Xintong couldn't even be bothered to wash up, she opened her mouth and fiercely bit down on them.

  Shameless, he actually took advantage of her for a whole day! Now he's even using his good looks to seduce her, just wait and see if she won't bite him to death!

  The man didn't get angry, instead he evilly whispered in her ear: "Isn't it because your husband wasn't hardworking yesterday? If so, then we'll continue..."

  "Shut up!" Bai Xincheng pinched the soft flesh around his waist, growling in a somewhat vicious tone.

  "Hmm..." Yan Mo's soft laughter escaped her lips as she grasped both of her hands firmly. He had lit the fire early in the morning, and if he hadn't known that she had endured too much yesterday, he would have taken her right then and there.

  Bai Xin was at a loss for what to do with him, and could only stare at him.

  "Let's go to Liyuan later, and I'll take you out of the mansion a bit later, okay?" The two fell silent, and Yan Moyu suddenly spoke up.

  Bai Xin ignored his previous sentence and only cared about the next one, "Going out? Where are you taking me?"

  "It's rare for me to have some free time, and it just so happens that you also rarely go out. I'll take you on a tour of various places in the capital city, but I don't know if you'll like it?"

  "Really?" Bai Xinzhen's eyes lit up, and suddenly her waist didn't feel so sore, her legs didn't feel so stiff, and even her brain started to get excited. Since coming from Mao Shan Village to the capital city, her freedom had almost been taken away. Now that he said he would take her out for a stroll, how could she not be excited?

  Looking at her smiling eyes and enthusiastic appearance, Yan Mo Yu smiled slightly and nodded: "It's rare to go out, is there anything you want to buy?"

  Bai Xin Yan blinked: "Aren't you afraid I'll spend all your money?"

  To be honest, she was still unsure if this man was willing to spend money on her.

  He pinched her cheek with a smile: "I'm afraid you can't bear to spend money."

  Is this woman so petty?

  Because she could go out and have fun, Bai Xin got out of bed with a refreshed spirit, went out the door with great enthusiasm, and even going to Li Yuan to see that old aunt whom she disliked seemed to be no big deal.

  The housekeeper said that Qiu Shi hadn't left her room for several days already.

  When Bai Xinzhen and Yan Moyu arrived at Liyuan, Qiu Shi was still sleeping in her room and had not gotten up yet.

  As Yan Mo entered the Qiu family's bedroom with her, Bai Xinzhu ignored the hostility revealed in her eyes and proactively stepped forward to stand by the bed, asking gently and caringly: "Mother, is your body feeling better?"

  Qiu's gaze was always like a razor blade. It wasn't until Yan Mo approached that she relaxed her expression and said, "Mo, why do you have time to visit me today?"

  This remark contains some resentment.

  Yan Mo stood beside the bed, standing by Bai Xin's side, and asked Mrs. Qiu: "Mother, have you invited a doctor to come and treat you? What did the doctor say was the cause of your illness?"

  Qiu's eyes scanned Bai Xinzhuang's face, then turned back to Yan Moyu, saying weakly: "I've already seen a doctor, the doctor said it was due to overwork, and that I need to rest in bed more to recover faster."

  "Mother has been working hard for the Wang Fu, indeed it's tiring." Yan Mo Yu looked at her, his low voice seemed to be filled with gratitude and emotion.

  Just as Qiu Shi was feeling a little relieved, Yan Mo Yu suddenly said, "Mother's illness is actually my fault... That day when Mother mentioned wanting to hand over the keys of the mansion and hoped to enjoy her later years in peace, I didn't agree. Now that I think about it, I feel quite guilty. Why didn't I readily agree at the time? If only I had, Mother wouldn't have become ill from exhaustion."

  Qiu's face turned pale: "......"

  "Mother, I was thoughtless and selfish, not considering your well-being. Since you intend to hand over the keys of the house, I will agree with you today, so that you can rest assured and enjoy your life without any more worries. Mother, my illness has recovered, and now I am capable of sharing some of the burdens with you, why don't you just hand over the keys of the house to me?"

  Upon hearing this, Qiu's family nearly vomited a mouthful of virgin blood and almost slapped themselves in the face.

  What nonsense is she talking about?!

  What is overwork? How can she say she's overworked?!

  What a ridiculous excuse! How could you come up with something so stupid and clumsy?!

  Also, that day she said to hand over the keys of the mansion, but it was just to explain to him that the Wang Fu still lacked a woman and hoped he could marry a concubine according to his own will.

  Never thought, never thought that all of this would be shooting herself in the foot!

  At this moment, the son in front of her spoke with an unprecedented gentle tone, but what he said was the most cruel and unacceptable to her... If she handed over the key, wouldn't all her careful planning and hard work for decades be in vain?

  "My filial piety has been received by my mother, so I don't need to worry about me. I'm just feeling a bit unwell for the past few days, and the doctor said that resting for a few days will be fine." After glancing at Bai Xinzhi, Qiu Shi suddenly became affectionate, "Xinzhi's body has only just recovered, so she should be allowed to rest more. How could I bear to let her overexert herself? Besides, she grew up in the mountains and never attended school. If I were to give her those account books to read, wouldn't people say that I'm intentionally making things difficult for my daughter-in-law?"

  "...". Bai Xin's mouth corners twitched slightly. She didn't expect her own husband to have the idea of letting her take over, which really surprised her. Seeing Qiu Shi's changing expression, she couldn't help but sneer in her heart.

  You're an outsider, what qualifications do you have to manage the Cheng Wang Fu?

  "Mother, you're worrying too much. Although I, Heart Dye, haven't attended school since childhood, I'm also a diligent learner. Since getting to know the Prince, he has taught me many things. Now reading and writing are not a problem at all!" When saying these words, Bai Xin Dye was not being modest in the slightest. She wasn't illiterate to begin with, what's there to be afraid of?

  Qiu's eyebrows furrowed, and he suddenly glared at her with a fierce gaze.

  She'd sooner believe this woman can read and write than see the sun rise in the west!

  How did this woman get cured by that highly skilled doctor? Why does she know her own secrets? Why is she so confident? Why has she changed so much?

  Could it be that getting a high person is not for her to expel the evil spirits in her body, but rather to inject evil spirits into her body?

  Otherwise, how could she explain the change in her words and deeds?

  She had just recovered for a few days, and she was in a hurry to come and fight with herself for power and prestige. Moreover, she was so confident that it was really too much to ignore her as the mistress of the house!

  How can this be?!

  She slowly regained her composure, and with a weak smile, she said to Mo Yu: "This matter is not trivial, don't worry that I won't be willing to hand over the key. It's just that I've been physically and mentally exhausted these past few days. This handover ceremony involves many things, so it's best to wait until my body recovers before doing the handover with Ran Er, you think so, right?"

  Yan Mo nodded: "Mother is right, it's just that I'm a little anxious. I also hope that Mother can worry less and not think too much. As for Ran Er, I will take some time to teach her more things in the future, so that she can better handle the big and small matters of the Wang Fu."

  Hearing this, Qiu Shi secretly let out a sigh of relief.

  "You can come and visit your mother, your mother is very comforted. If nothing else, you can go back now. After all, your mother's illness is too severe here, it's not suitable for you to stay here for a long time."

  。。。。。。

  As she walked out of the pear courtyard, Bai Xin turned her head and looked back at the man behind her. The two locked eyes, and involuntarily, the corners of their mouths curled up...

  In the pear courtyard, after Qiu Shi waited for the person to leave, she suddenly didn't have the mood to continue lying down anymore.

  Now she is being disdained by her own son and even the power in her hands is about to be lost. How can she remain calm?

  That woman must have been possessed by an evil spirit, which is why she has changed so much.

  She can't let this woman continue staying in Cheng Wang Fu, no, to be precise, she can't let this woman continue living in this world!

  She knows her secret, and what's more, she wants to take away what belongs to her, how can this be?!

  She absolutely won't let this happen!

  After dressing up, a maid came in to report—

  "Old madam, the prince has taken the princess out of the mansion."

  Upon hearing this, Qiu Shi was taken aback at first, then immediately delighted. She turned to the maid and asked: "Have they really left? But did they say where they were going?"

  The maid shook her head: "According to the steward, the prince did not say he would take the princess anywhere, but only instructed that there was no need to leave a gate open for them tonight. It's likely that the prince and princess won't be returning to the mansion tonight."

  Qiu got up from the couch, clutching a handkerchief in his hand, and suddenly began pacing back and forth in the room.

  What a great opportunity!

  After a few turns, Qiu Shi let the maid prepare pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Not long after, she handed an envelope to the maid and instructed seriously: "You take this letter to the Golden Music Gambling House in Wutong Alley and give it to someone named Sheng Ziyang."
