The Adventures of the Crying Princess

Yuwen Ji was dusty and unkempt from the journey, looking a little old. Bai Yimeng was short, and the two of them looked like a generation apart when they stood together.

Since that day, Yuwen Ji had been on the front line helping Bai Yinan deal with the war situation, so he rarely appeared in the Suwang Mansion. For many days, the two of them hardly met, and when they did, they were always polite, not as loving as the rumors said.

Ever since the third son of the Su clan met Yuwen Ji, he had come to the idea that Bai Yimeng was a fake princess.

Seeing Bai Yimeng squatting by the pond feeding the fishes, he took advantage of the situation and tried to push him into the water from behind.

Bai Yimeng had already noticed what Young Master Su San was doing. With a flash of his body, Young Master Su San threw himself into the water, and the fish in the water were frightened and scattered.

"Someone come, the third young master fell into the water."

The first person to rush over after hearing Bai Yimeng's cry for help was Concubine Su, who was the one who came up with the plan of pushing people into the water.

But he didn't expect that his son was so stupid that he actually fell into the water.

"You, why did you push my son into the water? He just offended you, why are you so stingy..."

Watching Concubine Su scolding people coldly, Bai Yimeng always had a sense of déjà vu. Do all brainless people like to use this trick?

While Concubine Su was cursing, Second Master Su rushed over from the front. Seeing his brother fall into the water, he was not in a hurry to save him, but ran over to stand up for his mother first, "You are so bold, you dare to contradict my mother..."

Bai Yimeng was not annoyed, and watched the two perform coldly. After a while, when he saw that they had stopped scolding, he looked at the Third Master Su in the fish pond and said, "Are you here to scold people, or to save people? Is this person in the pond really your relative?"

Looking at the Third Master Su, he sighed, "Young Master, your mother and your brother don't want you anymore, how about I take you to the military camp?"

The Third Master Su was furious. He climbed up the bank and angrily looked at his mother and brother, "Why are you just scolding her and not saving me? Do you want me to drown?"

"Oh, my dear, I am so angry that I am confused. Are you okay? Are you hurt?" Concubine Su touched her youngest son's face, her eyes full of heartache and love.

Bai Yimeng took out some melon seeds from her bosom and ate them while complaining, "Oh, what a loving mother and filial son.

Young Master, guess why your mother ignored you? Of course, it’s because your second brother is here, so having you one more person won’t make a difference, and not having you won’t matter either…”

"How dare you, you shrew! My mother didn't expose you because she wanted to save your dignity. You pretended to be Princess Yi, how many heads do you have?

Now you dare to kick my brother into the water and insult my mother. If I don't teach you a lesson today, you probably don't know your place."

Mr. Su Er had been going crazy because of the rules set by Bai Yimeng. Now that he had finally caught her, he naturally refused to let her go.

Bai Yimeng spat out the melon seed shells and said, "You think I'm fake? Tell me why?"

"You don't match the age of Prince Yi. You look about my age, a child of no more than seventeen or eighteen. Prince Yi... looks like he could be your father.

Besides, it is rumored that Prince Yi and the Princess are very affectionate. When I saw him, he didn't seem to like you very much. You, what else do you want?"

Bai Yimeng smiled, "Then why didn't you expose me in front of Prince Yi? I set so many rules for you before. Isn't this a good opportunity for revenge?"

"Impersonating a princess is a capital crime. No matter how much I dislike you, I won't take your life." The Second Master Su glared at Bai Yimeng.

"Then why do you hate me?" Bai Yimeng suddenly felt that this Second Young Master Su was quite interesting, and chatted with him while eating melon seeds.

"You are such a despicable person, my mother was married to my father in a formal way.

What right do you have to target her? He is the prince Su, who never comes home all year round. When he comes home, he talks back to our father and makes our mother angry. How can we brothers treat him as our brother?

You don't know right from wrong, and you just help Prince Su to make things difficult for us, so I naturally don't like you."

The Third Master Su walked forward angrily, "Exactly, Su Jianyun, what right does he have to disrespect our mother? Why does he talk back to our father? Can a legitimate son not follow the rules?

Over the past year, my father has tried every possible way to get closer to him, but he acts so arrogant. Why?

Besides, my mother didn't provoke him, so why would he mock my mother? What does his mother's death have to do with my mother?"

Bai Yimeng looked up at the roof, and his eyes fell on the two of them again, "No matter how you two feel about each other, or what grudges you have, it is a fact that King Su has inherited the throne. Have you thought about how to deal with it in the future?"

"What do you want to do, you fake?" Young Master Su San was soaking wet and looked a little pitiful.

Bai Yimeng smiled and lifted up Mr. Su San's sleeve to take a look, "Mr. Su San, you should change your clothes first to avoid getting sick."

Young Master Su San sneezed and wanted to explain himself, but after looking at Bai Yimeng, he still didn't dare to say anything and turned back to his room.

"I don't know what the Concubine is planning. You and King Su don't get along well. Have you thought about how you will live in the future and how your children will live?"

"This is my home. Since I married King Su at the age of seventeen, I have never thought of anything else.

Now that King Su has left me, I just want to be with him and keep the memories of him. I can't leave here. I understand your thoughts. You just think we are an eyesore. But you are paying attention to the wrong thing. We can't leave."

"You are the concubine, so you can live here as long as you are happy. But what about them? They are neither the eldest nor the legitimate son, so how will they go in the future?

They can live a peaceful life in the Suwang Mansion, but do you think their future should stop here?"

The Su Palace already has a prince, and if a child born out of wedlock has no merit or ability to serve the country, he is almost the same as an ordinary citizen. Concubine Su naturally understood Bai Yimeng's words.

"My son wants to stay with mother. I won't go anywhere." The second young master Su knelt down.

When the Third Master Su came back from changing his clothes and saw this scene, he knelt down and said, "My son won't leave either."

Concubine Su shook her head and looked at Bai Yimeng with a little more respect in her eyes, "I don't know if you are really Princess Yi, but I think you must be an experienced person since you can say those words just now.

I am not well educated and have not been able to raise good children. However, these two children are not bad by nature. If you don't mind their previous recklessness, you can take them under your command. Whether in the army or in the mansion, they will be at my command.

"Aren't you worried that I'm a bad person? As you said, I might not be the real Princess Yi, I might be a liar. Aren't you afraid that I might lead the two young masters astray?"

After chatting for half a day, Bai Yimeng felt that Concubine Su was a little silly. She didn't even know the other party's identity, but she dared to entrust her son to someone else.

Concubine Su shook her head and said, "Just like Jianxiang said, I don't like you, but there is a strength in you that makes me willing to obey you and makes me feel at ease.

To be honest, the three of us, mother and son, were deliberately bullying you just now, but you were able to remain calm. Even if you are not Princess Yi, you must have some ability.

This concubine has little education, so I can’t give the children a very good future. I just hope that the young lady will treat them well out of the kindness of the King Su.”

"Princess, you are too modest. I just wonder what your two gentlemen are planning to do?" Bai Yimeng continued to eat melon seeds.

Young Master Su looked at his mother, then at Bai Yimeng, "Tell me who you are first? If you don't tell me your identity, how can my two brothers make a decision?"

Bai Yimeng was in a playful mood and smiled mischievously, "Okay, then guess who I am?"

The two brothers looked at each other, then at their mother, and then at Bai Yimeng. The Third Master Su pinched his waist and said, "Don't guess, just tell me."

Bai Yimeng looked at the Second Master Su, "Your brother is not fun, you guess."

The second son of the Su family had sharp eyes. He suddenly saw Yuwen Ji not far away and knelt down and kowtowed, "Greetings, Prince Yi."

The Third Master Su also knelt down and kowtowed, "Greetings, Prince Yi."

Concubine Su bowed and made a slight gesture.

Bai Yimeng smiled and stood up, saying, "My concubine greets the prince."

"Everyone, get up."

Yuwen Ji pulled Bai Yimeng into his arms and hugged her tightly, as if they hadn't seen each other for centuries. "Child, I miss you so much."

"I miss you too." Bai Yimeng noticed that something was wrong with Yuwen Ji and looked towards the roof. "Su Xiaoliu, please help. The prince is injured and I can't lift him."

Su Xiaobei turned over and jumped down from the roof, holding Prince Yi's waist with one hand, and helped him into the room, "Xiao Qi, don't be afraid. I will treat Prince Yi's wound. You find a place to sit down and don't think too much. With me and Master here, nothing will happen."

Bai Yimeng nodded slightly, loosened his hand that was supporting Yuwen Ji, turned his head and looked at the treetops, "Jinying, I want to know how Prince Yi got injured."

"Don't check, I'll tell you." Bai Yinan followed Master Long into the backyard.

Bai Yimeng saw that his elder brother also had a wound on his arm, and basically understood what was going on. "Did he encounter an ambush?"

"Almost. It was the enemy's formation. It was too strange. We were caught off guard and almost got wiped out."

After listening to his elder brother's description of the other party's formation, Bai Yimeng was speechless. This formation was indeed brilliant. Anyone who entered it would either die or be injured.

"Little sister, you have a lot of clever ideas. Do you have any way to crack this?" Bai Yinan didn't know why, but at this moment he felt that his sister could give him a sense of security.

"The old method, sneak attack. Kill their leader, and I wonder how they can still be so arrogant?" Bai Yimeng's eyes instantly showed murderous intent, "How are the second and third brothers now?"

"Still in this formation, not coming out. Don't mess around..."

Without waiting for Bai Yinan to finish speaking, Bai Yimeng jumped up on tiptoe.
