When Lord Ling heard this, he was furious. Who on earth was this person in front of him? He snorted coldly, "You little boy, you know how to say harsh words. Who are you? Why do you care about the affairs of our Lord Ling's Mansion?"
Nan Nan snorted disdainfully: "This prince has no interest in the affairs of Linghou Mansion, and I don't want to care about it. This prince cares about my junior sister's affairs. Anything that forces my junior sister will not happen in this prince's place."
Prince? Lord Ling was stunned. He knew all the princes in Kyoto, but he just felt familiar with the one in front of him. Then his pupils widened: "You, you are Prince Anping of the Bingjian Palace."
Then the one standing next to him is Princess Ankang who works in the Bingjian Palace. It seems that he really cannot afford to offend these two people. Then the junior sister mentioned by these two people, if I am not mistaken, is she the disciple of the princess or the prince
Then, for the Linghou Mansion to want to recognize Fang Xiaoxi as his own, it was really beyond our reach. Lord Ling didn't know what to say.
Nan Nan nodded: "I really thought that Lord Ling had forgotten me after we just met last year. So can I take Xiao Xi away now?"
Would Lord Ling dare to stop him? Of course not. Looking at Fang Xiaoxi, Fang Xiaoxi waved at Lord Ling: "Bye. Brother, sister, let's go."
Beibei looked at Lord Ling curiously, and shook her head with some regret: "If it weren't for this messy backyard, Xiaoxi would have recognized Lord Ling's mansion and had an extra layer of gold on her body, which would have been fine."
You have to know that the two of them saw everything from beginning to end. They were worried about such a messy backyard. What if Fang Xiaoxi came back and was led astray
You have to know that Fang Xiaoxi is still young! She is also Qian Jiujiu's apprentice. If she is led astray, wouldn't it be a disgrace to her mother? So it's better not to come back.
Finally leaving the Marquis' Mansion, Fang Xiaoxi stretched out lazily after coming out: "Ah, it feels great to embrace freedom again."
Beibei glared at Fang Xiaoxi and said, "How come you were brought back by someone from Ling Mansion?"
Nan Nan looked at Bei Bei: "How dare you say that to Xiao Xi? Don't you have no brains? You brought Ling Qiniang home, and you didn't even notice anything was wrong until the evening."
Beibei was speechless: "How should I know that there is someone who looks like Xiaoxi in this world? After she went back, she didn't say anything and pretended to be in a hurry. I tell you, that Ling Qiniang must be no simple matter. Knowing that we are from the Bingjian Palace, she must have bad intentions!"
"Otherwise, she would definitely say that we recognized the wrong person. Children raised in this complicated family are all complicated. Xiaoxi is still the best."
Fang Xiaoxi didn't know what to say anymore. She looked at the sky and said, "I think we should go home first. We've been busy for half the night. The master should be awake by then, and I should go cook dinner."
What else could Nannan and Beibei say, but Beibei's heart skipped a beat. Yes, it's time to go back. If her mother knew about this, she would be finished.
The three of them ran towards the Bingjian Palace at full speed, and returned to the palace panting. They saw the housekeeper standing at the door: "Your servant greets the prince, the princess, and Miss Fang. The prince and the princess are in the hall, please come over!"
Huh? Nan Nan and the other two looked at each other. This shouldn't be the case. At this time, their parents should be sleeping.
"No, didn't father and the others rest? Did they wake up? This is too early."
The housekeeper was a little amused: "I don't know about this servant, maybe he got up early."
Possibly? This reply was too shocking. Okay, we had no choice but to go. The three of them came to the hall and saw Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao drinking tea.
Seeing the three people coming in, Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao looked at each other. Qian Jiujiu smiled and said, "What have you three been doing? Why are you out of breath?"
Beibei was the first to speak: "Mother, Father, why did you get up so early? The three of us just went out for a run and just came back. We couldn't sleep."
Qian Jiujiu raised an eyebrow and looked at Nan Nan and Fang Xiaoxi: "Is that so? Then where did you go for a run?"
Nan Nan heard that Bei Bei had already found an excuse, so he couldn't expose it. But the look in his mother's eyes really made his scalp tingle. He laughed and said, "I just went out for a casual run."
Fang Xiaoxi knew that she had made a mistake. She coughed twice, spoke a little embarrassedly, and then stood aside without saying anything.
Qian Jiujiu said "oh" and did not embarrass Fang Xiaoxi. She just looked at the three people and said, "You just ran around and went to the Linghou Mansion for a walk, and threatened Lord Ling, right?"
Stare! The three of them looked at Qian Jiujiu in surprise. Bei Bei was shocked: "Mother, you know everything. That is, we are..."
Mu Yexiao put down his teacup and said, "Leniency to those who confess, severity to those who resist."
Beibei was so scared that she knelt on the ground. It seemed that she knew that the mistake she made this time was very serious. Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao looked at each other and said, "Tell me, what did you do again?"
Beibei didn't dare to hide it. Who knew if her father and mother already knew about it? "My daughter knows that she was wrong. She shouldn't have taken her sisters to the casino."
Huh? She also went to the casino. Qian Jiujiu was speechless, looking at Mu Yexiao. This girl is going to make a scene, so you should treat her. Mu Yexiao could only ask himself: "Tell me everything."
Beibei didn't dare to hide it this time, and could only tell again what happened when Fang Xiaoxi was mistakenly recognized and taken away to the Marquis' Mansion at the casino.
Qian Jiujiu was a little surprised: "This is really a coincidence. By some strange coincidence, I was able to find Xiaoxi's family. Xiaoxi, what do you think?"
Fang Xiaoxi looked at Qian Jiujiu and said, "Master, I don't want to acknowledge my relatives. Although we have only known each other for a day, I feel that Linghou Mansion is very noisy. It is not suitable for my parents to live in. They have been honest people all their lives. How can they understand those people there? If they go there, they will definitely be bullied."
Especially her mother, when she knew that her father might be from a wealthy family, she became worried. Although they had children who were outstanding enough, the Marquis' Mansion was no joke.
As for the concubines in the Marquis's courtyard, many were brought by Old Madam Ling. When her parents come back, if Old Madam Ling directly gives a few women to her father, she cannot guarantee that her father will not be able to resist the temptation.
What if those people bullied her mother? Fang Xiaoxi was still a little depressed. Why did she encounter such a thing as soon as she came to Kyoto
Qian Jiujiu could see what Fang Xiaoxi was upset about: "This matter still depends on how the Linghou Mansion handles it. If they don't acknowledge their relationship, I'm afraid it won't work. You can handle it yourself. In fact, if you have something to do, you can try to trust your parents."
From what she had seen, Fang's mother was definitely a strong person, and Fang's father was an upright man, but it was normal for Fang Xiaoxi to be worried.
Fang Xiaoxi nodded and knelt down: "Master, I was wrong. I knew it was wrong to go to the gambling house, but I still went with them. Please punish me."
Nan Nan watched as both of them knelt down, wondering if she should kneel down as well? Well, she should kneel down: "My son knows he was wrong. He knew his sister had made a mistake, but he still helped to stop her. I am wrong."
Qian Jiujiu rolled his eyes at Nan Nan in silence. This man was straightforward: "You all know you are wrong, right? That's great. Go to the yard and kneel in front of the wall. Ziyuan, go wake up Cao Suixin and kneel with him."
Qian Jiujiu stood up, stretched, and looked at Ziyuan: "By the way, when you kneel, keep your back straight, put a bowl of water on your head, pour a bowl of water, and add an extra hour. When do you kneel? I'll tell you when I wake up."
Ugh! It was really a harsh punishment. Mu Yexiao followed behind Qian Jiujiu, looked at the children with some pity, and then went to rest with Qian Jiujiu with peace of mind.
Beibei looked at Nannan and said, "Brother, are you stupid? Don't tell me you made a mistake too. Just help us beg for mercy. You found out that Xiaoxi was replaced by someone else. You deserve credit for that. It's true. Twins are said to be telepathic. Why don't we have that at all?"
Nan Nan was very angry: "Shut up, you always make mistakes. It's okay for you to make mistakes, but you also make mistakes with your younger sisters. You have martial arts skills, so you are used to being punished to kneel. Think about Xiao Xi and Cao Sui Xin."
That's right, Beibei frowned, "What should I do? Xiao Xinxin is still so young and doesn't have any martial arts skills. If she kneels like this, she will lose half her life. Mother is really something. She doesn't even think about Xiao Xinxin."
Fang Xiaoxi coughed twice: "Master always treats everyone equally, what should I do?"
She was also worried about Cao Suixin. The three of them looked worried. Ziyuan stepped forward and said, "Prince, Princess, Miss Fang, let's go."
Well, there is a supervisor here. Beibei was almost mad, looking at Ziyuan: "Sister Ziyuan, let's discuss something. Can you go and call Xiao Xinxin later? Look at how young she is, I feel sorry for her."
Ziyuan was somewhat helpless: "Princess, if you really love Miss Xin Xiaoxin, you shouldn't take her to that kind of place. Now that I've made a mistake, I can't go against my master's wishes. But I can take you there first, and then go call Miss Xin Xiaoxin."
This seemed to work, Beibei had already regretted it. They walked a little slowly, but even so, they soon reached the yard. The three of them came to the wall and knelt down facing it.
Ziyuan brought some water with a distressed look on her face and put it on the heads of the three people: "Then I will go and ask Miss Cao to come over now."
What else could the three people say? They could only let Ziyuan go. When they arrived at Cao Suixin's yard, Cao Suixin was sleeping soundly!
However, the maid in Cao Suixin's courtyard came out and said, "Greetings, Miss Ziyuan. Is there anything you want to talk about?"
