Also, many thanks to everyone who bought me coffee (*≧∀≦*)

The overturned cart came too quickly, just like a tornado.

An Junwang had been living next door for so long without the backyard catching fire. Now, Gu Jiao just did a little thing for Liu Yisheng and even his husband’s eyebrows ended up burning.

Jing Kong, oh Jing Kong, you really dug a pit for me.

Here, Gu Jiao was pondering how to appease her husband, while on the other side, Xiao Heng was summoned to the palace by Empress Xiao.

”Aunt.”

Xiao Heng saluted Empress Xiao.

”Thereʼs no one else here, donʼt be so formal. Come and have a seat.” Empress Xiao said to Xiao Heng.

Xiao Heng sat beside Empress Xiao as she instructed.

Seeing Xiao Hengʼs slightly furrowed brow, Empress Xiao asked, ”Ah Heng, whatʼs wrong? You seem a little upset. Are you worried about your mother?”

”My mother?” Xiao Heng had been busy at the Ministry of Justice all night and was unaware of Princess Xinyangʼs situation.

Empress Xiao asked, ”You donʼt know? Your mother fainted at the palace gate yesterday. I asked you to come here to inquire about her condition.”

Although she and Princess Xinyang didnʼt like each other, after all, she was Xiao Hengʼs mother.

A hint of worry flashed in Xiao Hengʼs eyes, ”I donʼt know. I was at the Ministry of Justice all day yesterday and didnʼt go to my motherʼs side. Iʼll go and check on her later.”

Empress Xiao grabbed his wrist, ”Donʼt worry too much for now. I have something else to tell you.”

……

Marquis Xuanping didnʼt sleep in today.

He got up early and went to Zhuque Street.

Several luxurious carriages were unexpectedly parked in front of Princess Xinyangʼs mansion.

This was strange because besides Gu Jiao and Xiao Heng, Princess Xinyang rarely had visitors, and these luxurious carriages obviously didn’t belong to the young couple.

The coachman brought down a wheelchair for him, ”Lord Marquis.”

Marquis Xuanping frowned.

The coachman hurriedly said, ”Itʼs Physician Guʼs orders. She said if you donʼt sit, I should inform Lord Xiao.”

Marquis Xuanping sat in the wheelchair with a dark expression.

Just as he sat down, there was a commotion inside Princess Xinyangʼs courtyard.

Soon after, Yu Jin and several servant girls came out carrying large and small bundles.

As Yu Jin walked, she turned back as if speaking to someone, ”Kindly take these things back. We appreciate Old Wangfei’s kindness, but we canʼt accept the gifts.”

A plump old nanny surrounded by several servant girls and elderly servants followed suit and stepped forward.

She blocked Yu Jinʼs attempt to return the gift with her hand and said with a smile, ”These are all gifts from Old Wangfei, specially brought from the fief! How can you not accept them?”

Yu Jin smiled politely, ”Nanny Gui, we really canʼt accept them. The princess has just been appointed as regent, and Nanny Gui knows well that the princess must be cautious in her actions and conduct in her current position. She instructed us that no matter who comes to give gifts, we must not accept them.”

Nanny Gui glared at her and said, ”Can those people be compared to Old Wangfei? Old Wangfei watched the princess grow up and has a deep relationship with the princess, just like family!”

Yu Jin still maintained her polite smile, ”Nanny Gui, please donʼt make things difficult for us.”

Nanny Guiʼs smile faded a bit, ”I donʼt want to make it difficult for you either. Go and inform the princess, just say that Old Wangfei’s person has come to see her.”

Yu Jin calmly said, ”The princess has not been feeling well recently. She didnʼt sleep at all last night, only resting as dawn approached. It might not be appropriate to disturb her.”

Nanny Gui chuckled, ”I wasnʼt aware that itʼs up to a servant like you to decide when Princess Xinyang should be disturbed.”

A young servant girl nearby interjected, ”Lady Yu Jin is the steward of the Princess Mansion and holds an official position in the court. Please be cautious with your words, nanny.”

Nanny Gui coldly glanced at Yu Jin and lifted her chin, ”Very well, Iʼll wait here until the princess wakes up.”

”Whoʼs making such a noise?”

Marquis Xuanping, sitting in the wheelchair, was slowly pushed over by the coachman.

When Yu Jin heard his voice, her eyes lit up, and she turned around to bow, ”Lord Marquis!”

”Marquis?” Nanny Gui looked at the handsome man in the wheelchair and couldnʼt help but pause.

This, this… Was this Princess Xinyangʼs husband?

How come he hadnʼt changed a bit after all these years?

Nanny Gui was an old servant by the side of Liang Wangfei and had lived in the capital for many years, so naturally, she had seen Marquis Xuanping.

But she never expected him to be unchanged by the years.

”Lord Marquis! This servant...”

Nanny Gui hadnʼt finished her sentence yet when Marquis Xuanping directly grabbed the bundle from Yu Jinʼs hands and unceremoniously threw it at Nanny Guiʼs feet.

Nanny Gui was stunned again.

The servant girls, seeing their Lord Marquis take the lead, also straightened up and threw the gifts onto the ground!

Humph!

Nanny Gui and her group were pushed back several steps by the thrown items.

This was a complete humiliation.

They had traveled all this way to deliver gifts to Princess Xinyang, but not only did she refuse them, but also had them thrown out directly!

Nanny Gui immediately protested, ”Lord Marquis! We are from the Liang Wang Mansion! This servant is here at the behest of Old Liang Wangfei!”

The status of Old Liang Wang and Liang Wangfei was extremely high and prestigious.

Even the current Empress Dowager must respectfully address them according to their seniority, calling them ”Uncle and Aunt” with great deference when she met them.

Marquis Xuanping and Princess Xinyang belonged to the generation of their grandchildren.

So how dare he!

But Marquis Xuanping really dared!

He didnʼt even lift an eyelid at Nanny Guiʼs threat, just lazily leaned back in his wheelchair.

Although Nanny Gui was standing and he was sitting, he exuded an aura of dominance unmatched in the world.

Marquis Xuanping arrogantly said, ”Still not leaving? Waiting for this Marquis to kick the lot of you out?”

Nanny Gui was furious, ”You!”

One of the servants beside her sneered, ”Forget it, Nanny Gui. Marquis Xuanping has been arrogant for a long time! At worst, weʼll go back and report to Old Wangfei and let her go to the Emperor to seek justice! Letʼs see if someone dares to disrespect the Liang Wang Mansion just because Old Liang Wang has retired and is no longer working in the capital!”

This was, of course, another threat to Marquis Xuanping.

They didnʼt believe he wasnʼt afraid of Old Liang Wangfei or the current Emperor!

However, Marquis Xuanping didnʼt flinch at all.

Yu Jin suppressed a smile and said to Nanny Guiʼs group, ”Our Lord Marquis has just made great military achievements. Do you think the Emperor will move against him at this critical juncture? Heʼs just chasing away a few servants! Itʼs not like heʼs kicking out your Lord and Madame!”

Our Lord Marquis

Yu Jin addressed Marquis Xuanping like this for the first time.
