After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

Looking at the man's noble attire and assessing his age, Liu Yunxiang could probably guess the man's identity.

At this time, a woman ran over, with an obvious look of panic on her face, "Oh, Princess, why did you come here?"

This woman was with the old lady. Liu Yunxiang said embarrassedly: "Your house is too big. I got lost while wandering around, and I ended up here somehow."

The mother-in-law saw the man again and hurriedly saluted respectfully, "Third Young Master, this is the Princess of Zhenbei. She came to the house to visit the old lady today."

Liu Yunxiang's heart changed, and she guessed correctly. This was the third son of Duke Yang. He became the minister of the Ministry of Personnel at a young age. He was in charge of the promotion of officials. He was a rich man.

Among his peers, he is considered a leader.

The third young master glanced at Liu Yunxiang and shouted at the old woman: "When the princess comes to the house, why don't you and the other servants treat her well and let her wander around?"

"The princess said she lost an earring, and we are all helping her find it. I don't know why she ended up here." The old woman lowered her head and said.

"A bunch of trash!"

"Damn slaves!"

Liu Yunxiang narrowed his eyes. Although these words were meant to scold the woman, it was obvious that she was targeted.

She snorted and said, "Third Young Master, I just lost my way. Why are you so angry? It's as if this is some kind of forbidden place and someone is hiding."

The third young master smiled, "The princess is really good at joking. This is an abandoned yard."

"Oh, what is the third young master doing here?"

"I shouldn't have to tell the princess what I do in my yard, right?"

Liu Yunxiang took a look at the yard. Although it was deserted, the yard was clean, but it was not popular and a little deserted. The door to the main room was closed, and it was not known if anyone was inside.

"Princess, the old lady is still waiting for you in the garden." the mother-in-law said.

"I think the layout of the courtyard is very good. Maybe you can go in and take a look?"

As she spoke, Liu Yunxiang took two steps towards the courtyard door, but the third young master blocked her.

"It's inconvenient to invite the princess in."

"Isn't it an abandoned yard? What's the inconvenience?"

The Third Young Master narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Is the princess really here to visit my grandmother?"

Seeing the Third Young Master's tough attitude, Liu Yunxiang was already convinced. At this time, the old lady also rushed over. Her expression was obviously not right. When she came forward, she frowned at first.

"Princess, why are you breaking into my house?"

Liu Yunxiang was about to speak when she heard a loud noise in the room, as if something hit the ground. She hurriedly tried to walk in, but was blocked by the third young master again.

"There are people in the house!"

"Is there anyone in the house who has nothing to do with the princess?"

Liu Yunxiang had Zijin by his side, so he could force his way in if necessary, but Duke Yang's Mansion was obviously on guard against her. Within a short time, six or seven guards blocked the door.

"Princess, since you insist that you lost that earring in my Yangguo Palace, I will give the princess a pair to make up for your loss, is that possible?" The old lady's attitude became obviously cold.

Liu Yunxiang snorted, "My ear is unique. Today I have to turn your Duke's mansion upside down to find it."

"Princess, this is Yangguo Duke's Mansion, not your Zhenbei Prince's Mansion!"

"So what, isn't it just a palace of a prince, and I can't turn it over?"

"you!"

"My Highness has a bad reputation. If you don't want to be remembered by him, please ask the old lady and the Third Young Master to get out of the way. I feel that my ear is in this courtyard!"

Liu Yunxiang wanted to rush in, but the third young master stopped him without taking a step back.

"Princess, if you take another step in, don't blame me for being rude!"

"I would like to see how you can be so rude to my princess?"

This sound was ridiculing. Liu Yunxiang turned around and saw Yan Mu coming with a group of official servants. He had an evil aura all over his body, and the official officials behind him were just like him. They looked less like official servants and more like a group of bandits.

The third young master had no choice but to step forward, salute, and tell the whole story.

Yan Mu glanced at Liu Yunxiang and said to the third young master: "The princess's earring was given to her by the king. It is indeed unique. If she cannot find it, I will be heartbroken."

"But the princess insists on looking for it in this courtyard, and she has never been to this courtyard. How could she be thrown here?" The third young master said coldly.

Yan Mu held his chin and analyzed seriously: "Isn't this impossible?"

"Your Highness..."

"What if a servant of your house picks it up and secretly hides it in this courtyard?"

"I have been in this courtyard this afternoon and I haven't seen any servants come."

"In this way, if a dog or cat picks it up and sneaks into this yard, the Third Young Master shouldn't notice it, right?"

"I don't have any dogs or cats at home."

Following this logic, Dahei added: "It could be wild dogs and wild cats."

When Liu Yunxiang heard this, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. He really responded to those words, and the beam was crooked.

The third young master was speechless after being beaten, but he still stood there, refusing to take a step back.

Yan Mu then raised his sword, pulled it out from the scabbard, gestured twice, then raised his eyes to look at the third young master, curled his lips, and put it on his neck in the next moment.

The third young master shivered in fear and subconsciously stepped back. The sword followed him, and the sharp edge of the sword was right at his carotid artery. This time, he didn't dare to move.

He was the third son of Duke Yang and the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. No one dared to kill him without any reason, but he did not dare to be careless about the seventh prince. After all, he is the god of murder on the battlefield, his hands are covered with blood, and during his collusion with Dongchang, he killed many innocent lives in vain.

"Your Highness, what are you doing?" The old lady's face was pale and her voice was trembling, but she had seen big scenes before and could still suppress her shock at this time.

Yan Mu picked up the sword and patted the Third Young Master on the shoulder, "My sword is newly made. The blade has not been stained with blood yet, so it is not murderous enough."

"so what?"

"So let Third Young Master see if this is a good sword?"

The Third Young Master's legs became weak and he hurriedly said: "A good sword, a good sword."

Yan Mu smiled and put away the sword, and then said to the official behind him: "Go into the courtyard and search, be sure to search carefully, don't miss any place, and you must find the princess's earring."

After Yan Mu gave his instructions, Dahei led the officials in.

Being frightened by Yan Mu, the third young master did not dare to stop him anymore, but his face was very panicked, as if some shocking secret was about to be exposed.

The old lady was the same way. She was panicked and glared at the third young master, as if she hated the iron.

Liu Yunxiang was anxious and followed Dahei and the others in. She was panicking and didn't dare to think about what she would see later. As soon as they arrived in the courtyard, they heard Dahei and the others shouting from inside the house.

"Your Highness, Princess, come in quickly!"

Hearing this sound, Liu Yunxiang and Yan Mu ran into the house one after another.
