After the eldest daughter was reborn, the whole family knelt down and begged for forgiveness

Just as Xiao Xuetang was looking at Lin Xun with a puzzled look on her face, Nanny Song's voice suddenly came from outside: "Why are the lights on in this yard? Did the maid forget to turn them off before going to bed?"

Xiao Xuetang was suddenly shocked!

Why did Nanny Song come at this time? If she saw Lin Xun in her room, it would be a big misunderstanding in the middle of the night.

She was taken in by Nanny Song and the old princess out of kindness, and she must not let them misunderstand that she was the kind of person who was trying to curry favor with the rich and powerful.

and so……

"Your Majesty, please step aside!"

In a hurry, Xiao Xuetang didn't care about the difference between men and women, and reached out and tried to push Lin Xun away from the window.

Lin Xun was not on guard against her for a moment and was pushed by her and staggered. The next moment, he saw her pointing in the direction of the window and his face instantly turned dark!

It is absolutely impossible for him, the regent, to jump out of the window...

Xiao Xuetang couldn't do anything about Lin Xun. But at this moment, Nanny Song knocked on the door: "Miss, are you asleep?"

The lights were on in the room. Xiao Xuetang couldn't even think of going to sleep, so she quickly said, "Mammy, it's so late. Are you... are you okay?"

Although Xiao Xuetang is not at all vague when it comes to fooling people, but when facing someone as close to her as Nanny Song, Xiao Xuetang will not lie.

How could this sentence be hidden from the shrewd Nanny Song when it was spoken so haltingly?

Is there anything wrong with this child?

A trace of worry flashed across Nanny Song's eyes. She picked up a stick in the yard and said in a very calm tone, "It's nothing. It's just that the old princess is feeling a little unwell. I would like you to come over and take a look..."

As she spoke, Nanny Song quietly tightened her grip on the stick in her hand...

With a "whoosh", the door inside was pushed open, revealing a face wearing a mask...

“Your Majesty?!”

A scream broke the silent night sky of the palace.

Nanny Song's hand holding the wooden stick froze in mid-air. She looked at the man who suddenly appeared in the yard in disbelief. Was she dreaming and hadn't woken up yet?

Behind Lin Xun, Xiao Xuetang looked ashen, thinking to himself: It's over...

Nanny Song saw everything and would definitely misunderstand that she had bad intentions towards Lin Xun!

Xiao Xuetang saw the expression on Nanny Song's face change again and again, and her eyes were sharper than Xiao Xuetang had ever seen, and Xiao Xuetang knew it was over...

It seems that I should pack up my things and go to the incense shop to ask Uncle Lin and his wife to take me in for a while.

who knew...

"Your Majesty, why are you in a little girl's room at this late hour?"

Xiao Xuetang was stunned.

Just now I saw that Nanny Song's sharp gaze was actually directed at Lin Xun.

Nanny Song was very angry at this time.

Lin Xun was raised by Nanny Song. She felt that although Lin Xun had a somewhat cold personality, his character was impeccable.

But what happened now? It was the girl’s first day at the villa, and he actually went to her room in the middle of the night.

Where does this put the girl's reputation!

She arranged for Xiao Xuetang to live in the East Garden because she thought Lin Xun might not come back for a few days. She wanted to let Xiao Xuetang move in after the other courtyards were cleaned up. She didn't mean to let Xiao Xuetang fall into the tiger's mouth!

Immediately, Nanny Song pulled Xiao Xuetang behind her and protected her like a hen protecting her chicks, staring at Lin Xun with scorching eyes, as if she wanted to poke a few holes in Lin Xun's face.

Xiao Xuetang???

How come this is different from what she imagined...

When Nanny Song was young, she could wield a red tassel spear with great dignity. Now, even though she is old, her fierceness remains the same. Even Lin Xun, who has always been at ease, felt a chill down his spine when he saw Nanny Song's fierce gaze...

His Royal Highness the Regent, who has always been aloof, was nearly stabbed when he returned to his own courtyard. He was now being treated as a thief. Even through the mask, Xiao Xuetang could feel the dark aura on his face.

Xiao Xuetang didn't want Nanny Song to misunderstand that she was the kind of person who was trying to curry favor with the rich and powerful, and she didn't want Lin Xun to bear such a big blame, so she quickly explained: "Nanny, don't misunderstand, the prince just returned to the mansion and saw someone in the yard, and thought there was an assassin, so he came to check."

Aunt Song...

Seeing Xiao Xuetang still anxiously explaining for Lin Xun, Nanny Song felt a little uncomfortable. This child was too unguarded. She would have to keep a closer eye on him in the villa in the future!

Lin Xun was given a glare by Nanny Song for no reason again.

However, he was a regent who had experienced many storms. Under Nanny Song's defensive gaze, his expression remained the same: "Let's go see the old princess first."

Fortunately, Xiao Xuetang didn't know how long he would have to stay outside this time, so he simply asked Bi Hen to bring out the medicine boxes, and hurried into the house to pick up the medicine boxes.

Under Nanny Song's watchful gaze, Lin Xun was waiting outside. His leisurely posture was inexplicably glaring in Nanny Song's eyes.

Nanny Song watched Lin Xun grow up. Although they were master and servant in name, she was actually half-elder to Lin Xun.

She couldn't see through what Lin Xun was thinking, but that didn't stop her from being upset at the moment. She said to Lin Xun, "Your Majesty, it's not your place to stand at the girl's door. You should wait in the yard!"

Lin Xun...

Seeing that Nanny Song, who had always been kind to him, had become a different person today and was extremely picky about him, Lin Xun had a vague ominous premonition that his status in Shuiyunju would steadily decline!

Xiao Xuetang had no idea what kind of affair Nanny Song and Lin Xun were having. Seeing that Nanny Song did not misunderstand that she seduced Lin Xun, she felt relieved and went to see the old princess.

The old princess had a chronic illness and suffered from nightmares and palpitations at night. In addition, because the palace physician was not there today, Nanny Song thought that Xiao Xuetang happened to be not far from the palace, so she went to invite her in the middle of the night.

The old princess had been feeling much better after taking the pills Xiao Xuetang had given her today, so she was slightly surprised when she saw Nanny Song was offering a buy-one-get-one-free deal.

"Why did you come back in the middle of the night without informing the people below?"

The old princess looked at Lin Xun with a rather unpleasant tone.

Tianshu, who was following behind, wanted to speak up for his own prince.

In the past, his prince was always elusive, and there were no so many rules when he went to Shuiyunju. Why is it that today, Nanny Song and the old princess seemed like a different person?

Nanny Song told the old princess everything, and she had no intention of covering up for Lin Xun.

Hearing that Lin Xun came back and went to Xiao Xuetang's room, the old princess's face darkened and Xiao Xuetang's heart skipped a beat.

Nanny Song had always been close to her, so she didn't misunderstand her. She just didn't know if the old princess would...

As if she had noticed the awkwardness of the little girl, the old princess relaxed her expression and said with a smile, "Xuetang, it's so late, you should go back and rest earlier. You can stay in Dongyuan first, and I will ask the others to move out."

He had somehow become someone else's regent and could only stand aside with a blank expression. Under the candlelight, his tall figure looked inexplicably aggrieved.

Even though Xiao Xuetang wanted to defend Lin Xun, the old princess was not as approachable as Nanny Song. Xiao Xuetang didn't dare to do so and could only pack up the medicine box and leave as instructed.

As soon as Xiao Xuetang left, the old princess' smile instantly turned cold. She looked at Lin Xun and said coldly, "Kneel down!"
