She looked back at Lixia and said, "Lixia, go ask Guyu what happened to Brother Yan these past two days?"

Lixia turned around and went out as she was told.

Not long after.

After Lixia found out the news, she came back with a bad look on her face.

Liu Yueru frowned and looked at Lixia and asked, "What happened?"

Lixia seemed to want to say something but stopped herself.

Liu Yueru dismissed the insignificant servants around her, then looked at Lixia and asked, "Go ahead."

Lixia then told Liu Yueru the news she had found out; "Guyu said that Master Yan had a fight with someone in the palace."

"Fight?" Liu Yueru frowned even more tightly and looked at Lixia in confusion.

Lixia then said, "It was a fight with the fifth prince Xie Lingchuan."

Yan Ge'er has been an introverted person since he was young. He would not take the initiative to stir up trouble, let alone fight with others. Unless the other party is too excessive, Yan Ge'er will not take action.

Liu Yueru urged, "What's going on?"

"After Master Jin's incident, the Fifth Prince was taken back to the Imperial College to study. Yesterday, when the Fifth Prince went to the Imperial College, he ran into Master Yan."

"The Fifth Prince scolded Master Yan, saying that he was a nightmare brother, and that a servant like him was not qualified to be a tutor in the palace. He also scolded Master Yan for being a bastard that no one wanted. Finally, when the Fifth Prince saw that Brother Yan didn't say a word and just looked at him coldly, the Fifth Prince scolded Master Yan even more harshly."

Lixia stammered for a long time and couldn't say anything, but her eyes were already red with anger.

Liu Yueru took a deep breath and said to Lixia, "You go ahead."

Lixia calmed herself down before continuing with some difficulty, "The Fifth Prince also scolded Master Yan, saying that you are a divorced woman that no one wants. If he had a mother like that, he would have been too embarrassed to come to the palace to study with him. He also teased Master Yan, asking if he should find a father for him, saying that there are many eunuchs in the palace who are pretty good, so that you can keep your chastity and have more men to sleep with..."

After Lixia finished speaking, she looked carefully at Liu Yueru's face.

Liu Yueru's face was full of worry mixed with a little anger.

Lixia continued, "Master Yan had endured all the words the Fifth Prince said before, but when he heard those words that humiliated you, Master Yan got into a fight with the Fifth Prince. However, they both tacitly beat him only on his body, without hurting his face. The servants around the Fifth Prince saw that he was fine, so they didn't care and took him away."

Liu Yueru tightened her grip on the handkerchief and asked Lixia, "Did Yan Ge'er often get targeted when he entered the palace to accompany his studies?"

Lixia shook her head and explained, "No, I usually go to the palace with the young master, but that day Master Yan was late, so he ran into the fifth prince. The fifth prince was angry with Master Jin, so he took his anger out on Master Yan."

Liu Yueru was sensitive enough to notice that the time was wrong; "Brother Yan always goes out early, how come he is late?"

"I don't know either." Lixia said with a smile.

Liu Yueru thought of something and quickly stood up and said to Lixia, "Let's go into the palace."

"Madam, do you want to help Young Master Yan vent his anger?" Lixia asked nervously.

"Even if he is a prince, he cannot go too far like this."

Whenever Liu Yueru thought about how Yan Ge'er had to endure humiliation in the palace, she felt as if something had stabbed her heart.

Mu Dong stepped forward and said to Liu Yueru, "Madam, what excuse do you have to go to the palace? Why don't you wait a little longer? It will be the same if you support Young Master Yan at the palace banquet in a few days."

Liu Yueru thought about the embarrassment of her current identity and thought of that person in her mind.

He turned to Lixia and said, "Prepare the carriage and go to Prince Jin's Mansion."

Lixia got up to make arrangements.

Soon, Liu Yueru got on the carriage and went to Prince Jin's Mansion.

Liu Yueru wanted Xie Jingrui to find an opportunity to take her to the palace to visit Concubine Xian, and take the opportunity to find Xie Lingchuan.

"What happened?" The elite soldier asked worriedly when he saw that her face was not very good.

Liu Yueru had no intention of hiding it from Xie Jingrui. Yan Ge'er needed him at this time, and he had the right to ask.

She implicitly told Xie Jingrui the news that Lixia had found out today.

After hearing this, Xie Jingrui's face darkened instantly. He stood up and said to Liu Yueru to comfort her, "Don't worry about this matter. Leave it to me."

Since returning from the palace, Xie Jingrui has not entered the palace again. Today is a good opportunity for her to enter the palace and talk to her father about their marriage.

"Prepare the car." Xie Jingrui said to the servant beside him.

Liu Yueru stood up and gave Xie Jingrui some instructions before getting up and leaving.

During this time she went to the grain store.

There were still a lot of people queuing outside the door. Ye Tao, who was standing at the front desk, saw Liu Yueru from afar. She handed over the things on hand to someone else.

He took the handkerchief, wiped his hands, and quickly came to Liu Yueru's side, bowed and said, "Madam."

Liu Yueru raised her hand to let Ye Tao stand up, her eyes fell on Ye Tao's belly, and took Ye Tao to sit aside; "You are pregnant now, don't overwork yourself."

Ye Tao put one hand on her belly, and said shyly, "It's okay. The month is still young, and the work here is not tiring. My husband will come to help after he finishes his work tomorrow. Ye Tao is not tired, so you don't have to worry."

Mother Yan handed the things to Ye Tao; "These are the supplements that Madam brought specially for you."

Ye Tao took the supplements and said a little embarrassedly, "My wife arranged such a good job for my husband. I should have honored you well, but you always bring these good things to me. How can I repay you in the future?"

Mother Yan looked at Ye Tao with a smile and said jokingly, "Just focus on taking care of your baby and don't worry about the rest. I just want you to be safe and sound."

Ye Tao nodded heavily.

Then, he took out a bag of fresh fruits and vegetables and gave them to Liu Yueru: "My dear, these are what we planted in the yard. We just harvested them. I thought I would have someone send them to you to taste after I finish my work. It's a good opportunity for you to come and take some back with you."

"Also, I heard that my husband will be promoted at the end of the month. Ye Tao will prepare a delicious meal for him, and my wife must come to show her support."

Ye Tao looked at Liu Yueru expectantly and said.

Liu Yueru also nodded in agreement; "Congratulations first, I will definitely come to share in the good fortune when the time comes."

While the master and servant were chatting, Mother Yan saw someone outside looking at them in a sneaky manner.

Mother Yan immediately said to Liu Yueru with vigilance: "Madam, the person outside is very strange."

Upon hearing this, Ye Tao stuck her head out again and looked in the direction that Mother Yan pointed.

Then a familiar figure looked towards the direction of No. 1 Grain Shop from time to time. When he saw them looking in his direction, he quickly hid in the alley.

Ye Tao probably thought of who that person was...
