The prince dotes on his wife: a reborn peasant woman is not easy to mess with

But since Zhou Xiaoyuan asked, she decided that there was no reason to abandon her. She shook her head at Zhao Wu to tell her not to say any more.

Then she shook Nini's little hand and said teasingly: "Nini, let's go play with Archie first. Mom still has some things to deal with. I'll call you over for dinner when it's done."

When the little girl heard this, she immediately nodded happily. She obviously didn't know anything, but that's all.

After all, Zhou Xiaoyuan didn't want her to know too much.

Just like me, knowing too much about some things will only increase my worries.

On the other side, Xia Yechen, who hurried into the palace, had been notified at this moment. He did not go to see the emperor, but took a detour and went to see Concubine Shu first.

After saying this, Empress Shu was silent for a while, then raised her head and asked him: "Have you made your decision?"

"Of course." Xia Yechen nodded firmly.

Seeing this, the elegant woman showed a trace of helplessness in her eyes. She held her face and thought for a while, but said nothing.

During the silence, Xia Yechen couldn't help but feel a little nervous. It was rare for him to be in this situation nowadays, but after all, it was a matter related to the family and life of the mother and daughter. If Concubine Shu did not agree, it would only be more difficult for the emperor to follow the opinions.

Thinking of this, Xia Yechen couldn't help but cupped his hand again and said softly: "After so many years since the child was taken back, he has never taken a concubine or married a wife. The mother and concubine must know this."

As soon as he mentioned this matter, Concubine Shu's eyes became more and more helpless. She straightened up with a tangled look on her face.

Apparently he was worried about Zhou Xiaoyuan's lower status.

But if you think about it more carefully, Xia Yechen's identity is actually extremely embarrassing.

After all, he was the prince who only found his way back from becoming a monk. Even with the emperor's guarantee, those girls from aristocratic families definitely wanted more than that.

To take the most obvious one, even though Xia Yechen has reached this point, he is not among the most popular candidates for the crown prince in the capital.

Thinking of this, Concubine Shu could only sigh again.

She stood up with a more serious expression. After confirming that Xia Yechen was not joking but was serious, she breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's fine. It's better to hide one's strength and bide one's time than to show off one's talents. Besides, you are doing the right thing since the wife of the poor is not allowed to go to court. On the contrary, the mother-in-law is a little confused..."

As Concubine Shu said this, Xia Yechen's figure softened visibly. He nodded and said gratefully: "Thank you, concubine."

"No need."

Concubine Shu shook her head and looked out the window for a long time before she turned back to Xia Yechen and said, "Why are you still here? Haven't you made it clear to that girl yet? Go quickly, I want to meet you too." Where is she?"

After saying this, Xia Yechen naturally agreed. He was rarely smiling, and he came and went in a hurry, staying for only a moment.

But this news is actually shocking enough.

Long after he left, Concubine Shu was still holding her head in deep thought. The nun next to her looked at her appearance and couldn't help but ask, "Don't you like that girl?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Concubine Shu glanced at her lightly. The nanny immediately understood and hurriedly knelt down and did not dare to speak again.

Concubine Shu didn't say anything, nor did she let her stand up. She was just lost in thought for a while, and then said:

"Go and send a message to your brother, saying that I have important matters to discuss."

It’s not that I want to be a bad mother-in-law.

Mother-in-law and so on, she is just a mother-in-law. No matter what, she owes Xia Yechen. How can she let her child not realize such a small wish?

It's just that folk women are folk women after all, and Concubine Shu is still worried that if that woman can't get on the stage...

No matter what, you have to take a look first and clear the obstacles for Xia Yechen who is finally willing to reveal his life experience.

For example...how can a prince who has already recognized his ancestor have other brothers? Concubine Shu narrowed her eyes slightly when she thought of this. She just hoped that the family members would be a little self-aware, so that her punishment methods would not be too bloody.

On the other side, Zhao Linan had no idea what he was about to encounter, and he was extremely depressed because he didn't get any advantage from Xia Yechen.

Thinking about it made me feel aggrieved, and I couldn't figure out why the eldest brother whom he had always suppressed became the prince.

Why can't I be one myself?

The wishful thinking Zhao Lin'an had not yet figured out that if Xia Yechen was not his biological son, it would be impossible for an individual to leave his young and promising eldest brother unfavored, while always protecting his younger brother who makes trouble for nothing.

After all, he still didn't have a clear understanding of himself. After being praised by Zhao Xu, he thought everyone would revolve around him.

But that's something to talk about later. Here, Zhao Lin'an was drinking wine, and a group of friends lured him to visit a brothel.

However, Zhao Linan was short of money. All the money at home had been squandered. How could he still have money to live happily?

When he thought about this, Zhao Linan felt even more secretly resentful.

He thought that he had become a royal prince, but he was so stingy that he refused to pay even a small amount of child support to their family. This was rumored

Wouldn't it make people laugh out loud? !

He was arrogant and arrogant, so it was impossible for him to say that he had no money, so as soon as he rolled his eyes, he immediately started thinking again.

I followed him over, had eaten and drank enough, and when I was paying the bill, I suddenly started talking nonsense, saying that His Highness the Prince was my brother.

Let the people in the restaurant go to King Rong to report the debt.

The people in the restaurant were not willing to believe it. They only thought that this person was probably drunk and had already started to have delusional thoughts. However, Zhao Linan slapped his chest and said emphatically: "Don't believe it. I saw His Highness Prince Rong this morning. If you don’t believe me, send someone to Prince Rong’s Mansion to ask now!”

After saying this, the waiter in the restaurant hesitated, wondering whether it was true or not. If it was a lie, wouldn't it be obvious if he asked someone to tell it?

Seeing his hesitation, Zhao Linan felt smug and felt that he was too smart. So what if Xia Yechen refused to give him any benefits?

As long as he declares his name as King of Honor, can he still deny it?

Zhao Lin'an, who felt that he had taken advantage of Xia Yechen, became even more arrogant. He led a group of gangsters and friends to have a good time, and he often told truths that sounded like nonsense to outsiders.

Not many people will listen to what a drunkard says. After all, who knows who the protagonist in Peach Blossom is?

But this does not include the Su Mansion's men who followed the traces. Seeing this scene, the leader's face darkened, and then he winked at his men.

The subordinates understood and went forward to drive away the irrelevant personnel. Zhao Linan's group of friends were not completely drunk yet and ran away immediately when they saw this situation, not daring to delay for a moment.

With such a rapid speed, naturally he couldn't shout out to Zhao Lin'an who was already drunk.

When he woke up again, he was woken up by a basin of cold water poured on him.
