Du Chengan's voice was so weak that he could hardly hear it.

He now wants to die.

So embarrassing.

In his entire life, he had never been so embarrassed as he was today.

Xu Ji helped Du Cheng'an out of the door, two steps away from Tang Ze, and threw Du Cheng'an to Tang Ze.

Du Cheng'an clearly felt that if he hadn't sprained his ankle, Xu Ji would have kicked him out.

Xu Ji said, "Look for me in the future at the Shangshu Mansion or the Ministry of Justice."

After saying this, Xu Ji turned and left.

Tang Ze supported Du Cheng'an, very surprised, "I didn't expect you to lie."

Du Chengan blushed and said, "I didn't, I didn't lie. It was Young Master Xu who told me to come to see him..."

Unfortunately, he had never even climbed over the wall of his own house in his life, and he was discovered the first time he climbed over the wall of Wang's house. Although Xu Ji tried to smooth things over for him and said that he was looking for him, no one would believe him.

It was the first time for him to do such a thing, so he was extremely nervous. He treated the Wang family as a deep forest and the person he was looking for as prey, so he calmed himself and started looking for someone in the inner courtyard of the Wang family.

The inner courtyard of the Wang family was full of maids and old women, so it was easy for him to avoid them, but he did not expect Xu Ji to come to the Wang family as well.

Xu Ji was more skilled in martial arts than him. He found Xu Ji hiding in a tree, took out a silver ingot from his arms and hit him.

His nervous heart was about to jump out of his throat. By the time he reacted, the silver ingot had hit him. He was so frightened that he fell directly from the tree.

He steadied himself in time, but the rock under the tree was unstable and he stepped on it and sprained his ankle.

He wished he could crawl into a crack in the ground at that time. Xu Ji didn't expect that the person hiding in the tree was him. Xu Ji was not alone at that time. In order to save his face and not to damage the reputation of Miss Wang, Xu Ji said that he was looking for him.

He wanted to climb over the wall, but Xu Ji didn't let him, so he fell from the tree. The maids and old women cleaning the garden all knew about it and could not hide it anymore.

He sprained his ankle and had difficulty walking, so Xu Ji sent him back home.

He did not give Tang Ze away, but he did not expect such a coincidence. When Xu Ji helped him out of the house, Tang Ze and the Prince of Yanping came over and said that his climbing over the wall had nothing to do with them, but Xu Ji would not believe it.

Du Cheng'an looked embarrassed, but Tang Ze and the Prince of Yanping didn't take it seriously.

Tang Ze even comforted Du Chengan in return, "He is not covering up for you, he is just embarrassed to scold you."

Du Chengan was puzzled, "Why?"

Tang Ze said, "He climbs over the wall to my Tanguo Mansion every other day, how can I stop you from climbing over the wall as well?"

Du Chengan, "..."

Du Cheng'an's eyes swept from Tang Ze's face to the Prince of Yanping, and then to Lu Cheng.

It seems that he is the only one who takes climbing over the wall seriously...

Everyone else is used to it, as if it were a common occurrence.

Is he making too much of a fuss?

I feel like my skin is getting thicker.

Du Cheng'an sprained his ankle and could not patrol the city, so Tang Ze sent him back to Duke Du's Mansion.

Mansion of Duke Du.

Princess Huyang and her husband were having lunch.

The prince consort took a piece of fish belly meat and gave it to Princess Huyang. Princess Huyang tasted it and said, "This fish tastes delicious. An'er will definitely like it. Let the kitchen cook it again tonight."

The eldest son-in-law said, "An'er may not come back to eat tonight."

Before the eldest prince consort finished speaking, a maid came in quickly and said anxiously, "Princess, the prince has sprained his ankle."

Princess Huyang felt distressed and asked, "How did you sprain your ankle?"

As he spoke, he put down the ivory chopsticks in his hand, stood up and walked out.

Princess Huyang went out, and her husband followed her out. When they went out, they saw two servants carrying Du Cheng'an in.

Princess Huyang was so distressed that she asked, "Can you please invite the imperial physician?"

The servant hurriedly said, "The steward has sent someone to invite the imperial physician."

The servant helped Du Cheng'an into the house and took off his shoes and socks. Seeing that his ankle was red and swollen, the prince consort asked, "How could you sprain your ankle while patrolling the city?"

Du Cheng'an blushed and hesitated, not being able to utter a word for a long time.

Princess Huyang asked, "Is there anything that you can't even tell your parents?"

The nanny had a look and asked all the maids serving in the room to leave.

After everyone left, Du Chengan whispered, "I climbed over the wall to Wang's house, but I accidentally fell from the tree and sprained my ankle..."

The eldest son-in-law, "..."

Princess Huyang: "..."

Princess Huyang scolded, "How can you climb over someone else's wall?!"

Thinking of something, Princess Huyang glared at her husband fiercely.

The eldest son-in-law looked innocent and puzzled when he was stared at, "You're staring at me as if I was the one who taught An'er to climb over the wall..."

Princess Huyang said, "If the top beam is crooked, the bottom beam will be crooked."

Du Cheng'an opened his eyes wide and asked, "Dad also climbed over the wall to look for mom when he was young?"

The eldest son-in-law flatly denied it, "Your father didn't have it."

Princess Huyang said, "The walls of the imperial palace are high and the guards are strict. Your father has the intention to steal but not the courage to do so."

The eldest son-in-law, "..."

The eldest son-in-law felt a little embarrassed.

How can a father say that in front of his son?

Doesn't he want to lose face?

Princess Huyang glared at her son and asked, "Do you like that girl from the Wang family so much?"

Du Cheng'an lowered his head and said nothing.

Princess Huyang said, "Mother is just saying this to you. I don't mean to stop you from marrying. If you really like her, mother will ask your uncle to grant you a marriage."

"No!"

Two voices came at the same time.

Princess Huyang was startled.

Princess Huyang looked at Du Cheng'an, then at her husband.

She just doesn't understand.

One wanted to marry her, and the other did not object to the marriage but opposed her asking the emperor to grant the marriage.

Du Cheng'an also wanted to, but he still remembered what the Prince of Yanping said, that he could not ask the Emperor for a marriage, as it might kill someone, and he didn't want to do that no matter who it killed.

The eldest son-in-law changed the subject and said, "The Wang family doesn't know about the wall-climbing incident, right?"

Du Chengan's face flushed, "I was discovered..."

The eldest son-in-law, "……!!!"

Princess Huyang, "......!!!"

If you want to climb over the wall without being discovered, just don't do it again in the future.

If they are discovered, it will be their fault for not educating their children well, and they will have to go and apologize.

Just thinking about it makes me feel ashamed. If I get married in the future, I have to go.

Princess Huyang said, "Before you do something like this in the future, listen to the opinions of Prince Yanping and others. Remember?"

Should he tell his parents that he climbed over the wall just because they heard it?

“… Remember, remember.”

……

Inside the room, Shen Wan was lying on the small couch, flipping through the account books.

She was not counting the money, but was looking at her dowry and the things the emperor had rewarded her with in the past year.

Grandpa Yun’s birthday is coming soon. Although I don’t plan to hold a big celebration, as his granddaughter, I must still send him a birthday gift.

I just flipped through the account book from beginning to end, and then from end to beginning, but I didn't find anything that suited my taste.

The Yun family has no shortage of these things.

Shen Wan was thinking about what to give as a gift. She remembered that Xie Jingyan gave the emperor his own painting as a birthday gift. Giving a painting to the emperor seemed a bit perfunctory, but giving it to her grandfather was a sign of great respect.

Shen Wan immediately had an idea and told Yin Shuang, "Go get some gold foil."
