As soon as Princess Cheng stepped down from the carriage, she was greeted with unprecedented enthusiasm.
The servants in the mansion were all standing on both sides of the door. Xie Yin even came out to greet them. His eyes instantly turned red when he saw Princess Cheng, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
"Mother!"
Princess Cheng was still happy to see Xie Yin. This was the child she gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy. Even though she was angry with him at the beginning, she couldn't bear to give him up.
"Why have you lost so much weight?" Princess Cheng pulled Xie Yin.
Seeing that she was the same as before, Xie Yin felt relieved, and then he said aggrievedly: "Father has been confined to his house, and people outside are laughing at us. I want to see mother, but the gate of Jiyun Lane is not accessible at all, and mother has refused to see me."
The young man's eyes were red as he lowered his head: "I thought my mother didn't want me anymore."
Princess Cheng couldn't help but feel soft-hearted when she heard his words: "What nonsense are you talking about? You are my child, how can I not want you? Mother just didn't think clearly for a moment, and now you are back, you are so old and still have red eyes, aren't you afraid that people will laugh at you?"
Xie Yin held her arm and said, "Now that mother is back, you won't leave, right?"
Princess Cheng shook her head: "It depends on the situation."
"Mother!"
Xie Yin showed dissatisfaction as he let go of her hand.
Princess Cheng did not indulge him: "Ah Yin, you are not a child anymore, you should understand the situation. It is hard to explain the matter between your mother and your father. I am willing to come back today for you. Please don't make it difficult for your mother."
Xie Yin pursed his lips and felt that what she said was wrong, but seeing that Princess Cheng looked serious and a little stern, he was afraid that she would turn around and leave before entering the mansion, so he didn't dare to say anything more, and quickly acted coquettishly: "I just miss my mother."
Princess Cheng then smiled: "Mother misses you too."
The mother and son walked towards the mansion while talking, and Nanny Jiang led Ayane and the others following behind them.
At a distant corner, Gu Helian sat in the carriage and watched through the curtain as Princess Cheng followed her son into the palace with a smile on her face. After the door was closed again, he lowered his eyes in silence.
The momentum he had from shouting along with Mu Feng was gone, and after a long time he patted the car wall in boredom.
"Let's go."
Mu Feng couldn't bear to look back: "Master, don't be sad. The princess is only soft-hearted to Xie Yin. You can't stop the deep love between mother and son. When you find out more about Prince Cheng's affairs, the princess will definitely be alienated from him. At that time, you can work hard and dig into his corner, and you will definitely be able to pry the princess back..."
"Bang."
A long and thin piece of gold hit Mu Feng on the forehead: "What bullshit are you talking about?!"
Mu Feng hurriedly blocked it and took it. He looked at him and said, "Don't force it. I know you feel bad. If you mind that Xie Yin doesn't want this son, he is already seventeen and will soon be an adult. He can find a wife to marry. The princess is still young. You can have a child if you try hard..."
"Mu! Feng!"
Gu Helian became angry and pretended to grab the purse.
When Mu Feng saw his prodigal behavior, he quickly let down the curtain.
As the carriage moved, Gu Helian's face turned pale and blue.
He was annoyed with Xie Tianyu, and also disliked Xie Yin, the debt collector. That little bastard had been as pretentious as his father when he was a child, and he was always partial to his father and had no sense of right and wrong.
There was nothing wrong with the fight between him and Xie Tianyu, but that little bastard suddenly rushed out and hugged him, yelling, punching and kicking him, and he accidentally hurt him.
It was clearly just an accidental push, but Xie Tianyu took the opportunity to smear him. That little bastard was just like his father. He didn't know where he hit his head and burst into tears in Rong Yue's arms. Rong Yue saw that Xie Yin was "injured" and got angry, so she slapped him twice, and even Master Rong was annoyed with him.
Gu Helian spat fiercely.
Who the hell wants a baby that big? He's afraid he'll die young!
Gu Helian thought of Rong Yue returning to Xie Tianyu's arms, and was so angry that she kicked the door and said, "Hurry up, I'm staying here tonight."
He has to keep a close eye on that bastard Xie Tianyu!
Mu Feng: "…"
You are the boss, you have the final say.
The whip was raised and lowered, and the horse galloped wildly. The carriage also jumped forward suddenly. Gu Helian was still sitting there venting his anger, but he didn't sit firmly and fell backwards and hit the wall of the carriage. He gritted his teeth and cursed in pain: "Why are you going so fast? Are you in a hurry to reincarnate?!"
Mu Feng: "…"
He took a deep breath, pulled the reins and told himself silently.
Don't be angry, the one sitting inside is the head of the family. No matter how bad he is, he still gives him a monthly salary, helps him get married and buys a house, and sometimes the head of the family gives him huge rewards. He even saved his life...
Mu Feng touched the slender gold bar stuffed into his arms, and his mood soon calmed down. He forced a smile and said, "Then sit down, Master. I will walk slowly."
A cold snort came from inside.
Mu Feng: "…"
Don't be angry, don't be angry...
Snap——
Mu Feng pulled the reins hard and swung them in the air, making an empty sound, his face expressionless.
It's right that this bastard can't find a wife!
I wish him to be lonely!
…
After Princess Cheng was led into the palace by Xie Yin, as soon as she arrived at the front yard, she saw Prince Cheng standing there waiting for her.
Unlike his usual bright and handsome appearance, Prince Cheng's robe was somewhat wrinkled, as if he had come in a hurry. The scum on his face made him look less handsome, and his eyes full of joy when he looked at her could not hide his haggardness.
The servants around were led back by the housekeeper, and Prince Cheng stepped forward quickly: "Yue Niang, you are finally back."
Princess Cheng looked at the excited man who was so close to her, and saw that there was only deep affection in his eyes. When he looked at her, it was as if he had first met her when they were young, as if he really loved her to the extreme. She lowered her eyes to hide the complicated feelings in her heart.
"You and I have not divorced. The palace has also sent a message saying that my mother is not in good health. Naturally, I have to come back to see her."
Prince Cheng's face suddenly turned pale: "Mother Yue, are you still angry with me?"
"Mother, Father has realized his mistake."
Xie Yin was also frightened by Princess Cheng's words "divorce by peace". How could there be a divorce by peace in the royal palace? In the royal family, unless a wife or a husband dies, it is rare to hear of a couple being separated in a hundred years. If this gets out, how will others laugh at them?
Besides, if his mother really separated from his father, then what would he be?
Xie Yin said hurriedly, a little flustered, "During the time you were away from the palace, father regretted what he did every day. He said he shouldn't have lied to you, and shouldn't have let the Song family fool him into thinking of you for the sake of the royal family and the palace, and helped them conceal the truth. I saw him drunk and crying more than once, thinking about you coming back all the time. Look how haggard father has become."
Prince Cheng also looked at Princess Cheng with red eyes: "I know you are angry that I lied to you, but I really was wrong for the moment. I have regretted it countless times since you left."
"If you're angry, you can hit me, scold me, whatever you want, but don't be angry and say you're leaving me..."
He wanted to reach out to Princess Cheng, and with a sincere face he just wanted to ask for her forgiveness.
But Princess Cheng still took half a step back and avoided him.
"Niang Yue..." Prince Chen froze in embarrassment: "Do you hate me so much?"
He seemed to be eager to move forward, but Princess Cheng took a step back.
"Xie Tianyu!"
Just one sound was enough to convey a warning.
Prince Cheng didn't dare to move forward, but his expression was a little bit off. Nanny Jiang, who followed behind him, saw the tense atmosphere and hurried forward to say, "Prince, please don't touch the princess. The princess is pregnant and has not been in good health recently. She came back today to travel a lot. If there is anything, we can talk later."
