The Legend of the Concubine in the Harem

The hunt for the evil spirit of the Red Sun Cult is still going on.

Lu Weiyuan had a good fight, and when he returned to the Yongjia Marquis Mansion, Xie Yi was still running around outside.

Once inside.

When Xie's mother learned the news that her beloved granddaughter had returned, she pushed the cards in her hand aside, casually distributed the silver coins on the table to the maids and nannies who were playing cards with her, and stood up and hurried to pick her up.

When leaving, I didn't forget to pick a handful of pomelo leaves.

Then he saw his granddaughter adorably carrying a bruised and battered man on her back, slowly walking towards him on the path in her yard: "Grandma!"

Mother Xie threw the pomelo leaf in her hand and said, "Is this... another one?"

She quickly called out to Lu Weiyuan: "Come on, come on. Your brother did that thing before... Anyway, there is a place where you can put people. It's very hidden."

"Madam..." Fu Xiaoyao said weakly, "I am Xiaoyao, I am not dead yet..."

"Shocked!" Mother Xie approached and realized that it was someone she knew. She asked in surprise, "Why are you fighting?"

Of course Lu Weiyuan knew that his grandmother was very familiar with these orphans from the charity home, so he grinned and said, "Let's spar with each other. I couldn't hold back for a moment. Grandma, from now on Sister Xiaoyao will be the number one guard of my princess mansion. I have also selected some other people. They are now at Sister Huahua's house. I'll have to trouble you to send some medicine or something over there."

Her voice was crisp and her tone was cheerful, without any guilt for beating someone into a pig's head. She acted coquettishly to Xie's mother for a few words and successfully diverted the other party's attention. While Xie's mother was arranging the delivery of medicine, cloth and other items, she pulled Hu Ziyi and carried Fu Xiaoyao decisively back to her courtyard in Yongjia Marquis Mansion.

"It was a close call. If it weren't for sister Xiaoyao and you guys helping to cover up this matter, grandma would have dragged me away to soak in water made from pomelo leaves." Lu Weiyuan put Fu Xiaoyao down, and Hu Ziyi took down a bottle of medicine from the Duobao Pavilion as if she was familiar with the place.

Lu Weiyuan was still mumbling: "That thing smells terrible, and every time I run past it, the raccoon slaves in my palace ignore me for a long time."

"Your Highness, did you bring me here just for this?" Fu Xiaoyao said in a resentful tone, taking the medicine from Hu Ziyi and applying it to his face.

"Yes." Lu Weiyuan did not hide his intentions at all. "What's wrong, Sister Xiaoyao, do you feel that I look down on you? Do you think that I deliberately left you alone and personally brought you back to the Marquis' Mansion because I saw some incredible potential in you, so I deliberately treated you with courtesy?"

"No, I just don't want to make grandma worry, and I don't want to go soak in grapefruit water. There are no other reasons or calculations. Sister Xiaoyao, don't worry too much when you are around me in the future. I like to speak directly, and I am not as expressionless as those words are written in the notebook. If Sister Xiaoyao can't adapt, just learn to follow your heart. She is the last one who will think too much."

Hu Ziyi, who was silently helping to untie the straps on Fu Xiaoyao's arms, looked over quietly: Your Highness, you are so despicable.

Seeing that her expression was not fake, Fu Xiaoyao was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly and said, "Your Highness, please forgive me for making fun of you. I really thought that I was about to be entrusted with an important task, so I couldn't help but feel a little excited."

She has always been the best among the sisters, and inevitably has some arrogance. Although this arrogance has been largely dispelled by Lu Weiyuan, in Fu Xiaoyao's heart, she is still worthy of the special attention and recognition of this little princess.

"Ah, Sister Xiaoyao is right about this." Lu Weiyuan tilted his head, "I am using you as a shield to fool my elders, which does not conflict with my intention to use you. If I am not mistaken, Sister Xiaoyao should be the leader among those who came to see me today, right?"

"In fact, I think people are very similar to wolves sometimes. As long as I can subdue the leader and let them see the benefits of having me as the boss, the others will naturally follow suit."

"But you did give me a lot of surprises today."

"I originally only wanted to beat you up, but I didn't expect everyone to start fighting as soon as they saw the fight start..." The little princess narrowed her eyes, "That's really good, very good. What I saw was not a group of thugs trained by their mothers, but real people. So, Sister Xiaoyao, you don't have to be disappointed. In my opinion, each of you is very special and unique, and it is worth my making friends with you."

Before he could feel moved, Fu Xiaoyao, with a bruised face and nose, saw the wife of Marquis Yongjia coming back, carrying a large bundle of pomelo leaves and several maids, and heading towards the house.

Lu Weiyuan puffed up his cheeks: "Damn it, I still couldn't dodge it!"

Turning around, she put on her most obedient and sweet smile and greeted her: "Grandma, why did you come here in person? Please don't tire you out. I want to apply medicine to Sister Xiaoyao first before taking a bath."

"Don't worry. I'm still very strong. It's getting late. You and Xinsui should go take a bath quickly. Soak for a while longer to get rid of the bad luck. Leave Xiaoyao to me. Don't worry, I won't kill your future guard leader." Mother Xie looked at her granddaughter with loving eyes.

When her daughter was young, she could give her very little and was always worried about her. Now that her granddaughters are so old, the family has everything they need, but Mother Xie still likes to do everything herself. Whenever she has the chance, she wants to take care of every aspect of the children - unfortunately, they don't seem to need her care very much.

Lu Weiyuan was a good boy to his mother and grandmother, and had never revealed his dislike for You Ziye in front of Xie's mother. Just as Xie's mother tried to realize the value of her existence from the act of taking care of her child, Lu Weiyuan also enjoyed the endless warmth that came from being cared for and looked after by his relatives, as if he were a truly living person.

Anyway, grapefruit leaves are not that bad actually, it’s just that when facing relatives who truly care about you, you’re bound to be a little more delicate, right?

aside.

Fu Xiaoyao saw this harmonious scene of grandparents and grandchildren from the slits of her eyes. Looking at the little princess's ever-changing expression, she immediately became more cautious about what she had said before, "she likes to speak frankly" - she likes to speak frankly, but that doesn't mean she will speak frankly in all occasions, right?

Feeling that he had seen through Lu Weiyuan's cunning, Fu Xiaoyao could not help but start looking forward to the days of staying with the little princess in the future. He believed that it would be an extremely wonderful time and he would be able to witness many major events.

From the first moment Fu Xiaoyao saw Lu Weiyuan, she smelled a familiar scent from her, a scent that seemed to be ready to cause trouble.

Just like myself.

Although the beating was painful, it seemed worth it at the moment.
