But he also knew that he couldn't offend the General's Mansion at this time, so he said with a self-blaming face, "Please calm down, Madam. Zi Yu doesn't know why?"

After all, he is a prince. Although the old lady was angry, she couldn't say much.

What happened here had already spread to the men's banquet in the front yard.

The old general looked at the people in front of him with an equally unpleasant expression.

"In that case, I will go with General Xiao."

"As for the others..." He glanced at everyone present and continued, "It's getting late. Shouldn't we leave now?"

Si Xuan's tone was icy and his eyes were sharp, which frightened everyone so much that they dared not say anything more and stood up to say goodbye.

Xiao Zhenhai accompanied them all the way out of the mansion.

"Thank you, Your Highness King Xuan," said General Xiao gratefully.

"Let's go and take a look together," Si Xuan gestured.

When the two arrived, they just heard what Si Ziyu said.

General Xiao was so angry that he said, "Your Highness the Third Prince, you should know why you came to the backyard, right?"

Si Ziyu was even more dissatisfied when facing General Xiao's questioning.

"General Xiao, I just wanted to come out for some fresh air, and then I don't know how I ended up here."

"I never expected something like this to happen, and we are also victims!"

"Anyone with eyes can see that we were drugged!"

Si Ziyu patiently explained in a low voice.

"You two are already engaged, who would use this method on you?" Old Madam Xiao didn't believe a word of it.

"Qianqian, what's going on?" Yan looked at her daughter.

"Grandpa and grandma, I don't know what happened. I fainted as soon as I walked over here," Xiao Qianqian said crying.

"Your Highness, Third Prince, how do you think this should be handled today?"

Although he was angry, things had to be resolved since they had happened, asked General Xiao.

Si Ziyu hesitated for a long time. How could he know what to do? He was also a victim, okay?

At this moment he had forgotten that it was they who had planned to harm Feng Qi, and they were just reaping the consequences.

"General Xiao, how about this? Fortunately, they are already engaged, so why not get married sooner?"

Si Xuan spoke softly from the side.

Feng Qi wanted to go over and shut his mouth. Her problem was not resolved yet, how could she let the General's Mansion and Si Ziyu get involved?

"This..." General Xiao hesitated.

Si Ziyu didn't care, "It's all up to Uncle Nine."

General Xiao didn't know what to say, so he just agreed to his suggestion.

"It's getting late, Ziyu, please follow me into the palace." Si Xuan looked at Si Ziyu who was standing beside him.

"It's time for us to go back. Come to my house next time and we'll have a good chat," Princess Gong also said at the right time.

The Xiao elder couple personally escorted the people out of the house, and by then all the people who came to watch the ceremony had left.

Shen took people to clean up the front yard, and several brothers also went to help. Yan took Xiao Qianqian back to Cuiyu Pavilion and asked her to reflect on her mistakes behind closed doors.

Xiao Zhenhai accompanied the old couple Xiao back to Qingsong Courtyard and sent someone to bring Hongyu over, intending to interrogate her thoroughly.

The two servants picked up Hongyu and threw her to the ground, then tactfully retreated.

"Hongyu, tell me everything you know!" The old lady always felt that things were not that simple.

"Madam, I don't know anything, right?"

"If you don't know, then why did you hint in front of everyone that the person inside was Qi'er?"

"My servant, I didn't. I didn't say that."

Hongyu shook her head in denial.

"You're not telling the truth, are you?" The old lady didn't want to waste time talking to her anymore.

"Old lady, please forgive me, I really don't know anything!"

The old lady turned a deaf ear to her cries at this moment, "Someone come!"

The old woman who was waiting outside came in immediately and said, "The old slave is here."

"Mrs. Wang, take her away and help her figure out what's going on."

Hongyu shuddered with fear. Although the master of the general's mansion treated his servants very well, she had heard that this old lady Wang would punish those who betrayed their master and make their lives a fate worse than death.

"Old lady, spare my life, I say."

The old lady waved her hand and Wang Po stood aside waiting for orders at any time.

"My servant, I saw the young lady go that way, so..."

"Po Wang?" the old lady interrupted her.

"No, no, I said, I saw that the young lady seemed to be unwell, so I helped her in to rest."

"So, that's why I thought there was a young lady inside."

"Madam, what this servant said is true. Please spare my life."

The old lady waved her hand, and Wang Po immediately picked up the person and dragged him out.

Hongyu was so scared that she kept screaming. It was only until another old woman covered her mouth at the door that she calmed down.

"Old man, what do you think?" The old lady was upset for a moment.

"If this girl isn't lying, I'll probably have to ask Qi'er what's going on."

The old general sighed, thinking that the palms and backs of his hands are all made of flesh.

"Father, mother, Qi'er would never do such a thing as killing his siblings!" Xiao Zhenhai said on the side.

"Your father is not senile. I know that without you telling me," General Xiao yelled at him.

"Then why are you angry with me?" Xiao Zhenhai muttered softly.
