Kick out the general as soon as you are reborn

Liu Yanyan suppressed the anger in her heart and said calmly, "Okay, you lead the way. I just came to the palace and I don't know the way." Let me see what you are up to.

The little maid then stood up and took Liu Yanyan out of the garden, "Miss Liu, please follow me and don't get lost."

Liu Yanyan nodded lightly and said, "Okay, I'll follow you behind. You go, I'll follow you." Seeing the little palace maid walking further and further away, bypassing two rockery and heading towards a remote place, Liu Yanyan's eyes were full of coldness.

She picked up a rock nearby and smashed it on the maid's head. Seeing her fall to the ground, she kicked her and said "Pooh". She walked back, taking off her coat as she walked and putting it on inside out, revealing the light blue lines on it. She walked towards the palace banquet. Fortunately, it was not far and she remembered the way.

As soon as she returned to the banquet, she saw her father walking towards her, looking nervous, and said in a low voice, "I didn't see you just now. Where did you go? Why did you change your clothes? What happened?"

Liu Yanyan smiled helplessly and said with her head down, "Just now a little palace maid poured wine and soaked my clothes. She kept kneeling on the ground and kowtowing. I was afraid that others would see me and say that I was being harsh to the palace maids, so I followed her to change clothes. I saw that the road was getting more and more remote, and I was afraid that something might happen, so I knocked her out and came back directly."

Duke Liu had a gloomy expression on his face and said, "Go back and sit down in your seat. Don't let anyone notice."

Liu Yanyan nodded obediently, not daring to look at her father's expression. Her father must be angry.

After seeing Nannan go back, Duke Liu murmured to himself, "Who is it? Who wants to plot against my Nannan, the Regent? The Third Prince? No, that's not right. The Third Prince is very kind and righteous. Could it be the Fifth Prince? Maybe, he is the most sinister and calculating." With a gloomy look in his eyes and a smile on his face, he returned to his seat and drank with his colleagues with a smile.

After Liu Yanyan knelt down, the Regent, who was sitting diagonally opposite her, saw that she had changed her clothes. A rage flashed in his eyes. He crushed the wine glass in his hand, wiped it directly with a handkerchief, and then threw it away.

Until his eunuch Xiao He came to his side and whispered, "Your Highness, Miss Liu is fine. She knocked out the little palace maid. I have already taken care of the follow-up matters."

The regent's coldness gradually subsided, and he simply nodded, "Well, leave." He then continued to watch the dancer, only glancing at Liu Yanyan from time to time.

Liu Yanyan knelt in her seat, looking at the table full of food, not daring to eat. She touched her belly helplessly and adjusted her clothes that were worn inside out. Fortunately, the clothes could be worn on both sides.

Xiao He brought the plum blossom cake and said, "This is a gift from His Majesty. Please try it."

Liu Yanyan took it with a smile, and after watching Xiaohe leave, she put the pastry on the table, picked up a piece of it and covered her lips with a handkerchief, pretended to take a bite, and then stopped eating.

The dancers on the dance floor changed several times, and the banquet finally came to an end. Eunuch Li Chuanyu said in a hoarse voice, "The banquet is over."

Liu Yanyan followed behind her father and left the Imperial Garden together. When they were almost at the palace gate, they heard a voice behind them whispering, "Do you know?"

"what do you know?"

"Third Prince, I took a maid as my concubine tonight."

"What's the big deal? We're all men. Isn't this normal?"

"Well, it's just that the Emperor saw it, which is not glorious."

"The Third Prince is a little impatient, that's true of men."

"That's right, but His Majesty is unhappy."

"And he was not punished."

"That's good."

When Liu Yanyan heard this, she lowered her head, her forehead covered with cold sweat. Fortunately, she did not follow him, otherwise she would become a joke. She did not want to be the top scholar, but to become a concubine. Liu Yanyan felt her head buzzing. Why did the third prince plot against her?

Duke Liu clenched his hands tightly, veins popped out on his hands, a raging rage flashed in his eyes, he gritted his teeth, and silently walked out of the palace with his daughter.

It was not until they were outside the palace and got on the carriage that Duke Liu spoke, "Nannan, you must be more careful in the future. Tomorrow, Daddy will give you two little maids who are good at martial arts. Don't be afraid, Daddy is here and will protect you."

Liu Yanyan nodded, tears falling down her cheeks, and cried, "Daddy, I will be more careful in the future and won't let anyone plot against me."

Duke Liu nodded and touched Nannan's hair. "Nannan has grown up and has things she wants to do. Daddy won't stop you, but you have to learn to protect yourself."

Liu Yanyan then stopped crying and wiped away her tears, "Daddy, Nannan will. Nannan will be more careful in the future and will never take risks out of curiosity." After she said this, a trace of hatred flashed across her eyes.

Duke Liu nodded, looked at Nannan crying sadly, and said, "Don't cry, it's not good for others to hear it."

Liu Yanyan stopped crying and remained silent all the way until she reached Cuizhuxuan, then she burst into tears and stopped only when her eyes were sore.

Yuzhu and Yuzhen heard the young lady crying sadly at the door, but they didn't dare to push the door open, so they stayed at the door with her until the crying gradually subsided.

Yuzhu and Yuzhen came into the room carrying hot water.

Yuzhu said worriedly, "Miss, please wash your face. Your eyes are red from crying."

Liu Yanyan took the warm towel, wiped her face, and put the towel on her eyes. After a long time, she took the towel off and handed it to Yuzhu. "Yuzhen, go to the kitchen and prepare something delicious. I'm a little hungry."

Yuzhen lowered her head, took the copper basin and said, "Okay, Miss, I will prepare it right away."

Yuzhu stepped forward and massaged the young lady's forehead.

Third Prince's Mansion

The third prince Zhou Shenyi looked at the newly promoted concubine Xiaotao, who was kneeling on the ground, and his face turned blue with anger. "Xiaotao, what's wrong with you? Why can't you handle such a small matter? Didn't I ask you to bring the number one scholar here? Why are you here?"

Xiao Tao cried heartbrokenly and shook her head, "I have brought Liu Zhuangyuan here. I don't know how I fainted on the way. When I woke up, I was on your bed. Your Highness, you must believe me! I really don't covet your Highness, your Highness, you must believe me!"

The third prince covered the bump on his forehead from his father's beating, looked at the pitiful crying Xiao Tao, and said distressedly, "Okay, it's not your fault, it's Liu Yanyan's fault for being too cunning. We still underestimated her. You go live in the yard next to the princess, and I will come to see you in the future."

Xiao Tao's nose was red from crying. She knelt down and crawled to the feet of the Third Prince. She kowtowed and said, "Thank you, Third Prince, for your pity."

"Why are you still calling me the Third Prince? Call me Master."

Xiao Tao whispered softly, "Thank you, Master, for your mercy."

The third prince kissed her forehead and then waved his hand, signaling her to leave. After watching Xiao Tao leave, he sighed and said, "What a pity. I have to go and comfort the princess, otherwise there will be chaos today." After saying that, he took a big sip of the tonic soup and walked towards the princess' courtyard.
