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

Back at the house, when Liu Yunxiang was applying medicine on his son's forehead, Yan Mu came back. When he saw the injury on his son's head, his face turned dark and he asked what was going on.

Liu Yunxiang took Yan Mu to sit down, told him what happened today, and then hurriedly warned: "It's just a fight between children. You can't come forward, otherwise the matter will be serious."

Yan Mu pulled his son into his arms and frowned when he saw his forehead was red and swollen, "Does it hurt?"

Yan'er didn't feel wronged at first, but was a little angry, but when Yan Mu hugged her, her eyes couldn't help but turn red. He lay in Yan Mu's arms and said softly: "It doesn't hurt."

Yan Mu patted his son on the back, "You did a good job, but next time, whoever dares to bully you will be beaten hard."

"I want to reason with them."

"Some people just don't understand human speech."

Phew, Yan'er laughed.

Yan Mu held his son in his arms and sat in his arms, "Don't worry about this matter today. Dad will definitely help you seek justice."

"You don't need to step forward, I will handle it." Liu Yunxiang said.

"To deal with such rogues, we must be even more rogue. You can't do it." Yan Mu waved his hand.

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "Don't be silly, he is the King of Zhenbei after all, so you should save some face."

Yan Mu's eyes widened, "Are you calling me shameless?"

"You know how to pick out the important points."

Xingyi chuckled, "Daddy is shameless!"

Yan Mu grabbed Xing Yi and pulled her into his arms, "Little girl, your mother can scold dad, but you can't."

"I was wrong, I was wrong." Xingyi quickly begged for mercy.

"Then we have to fight!"

While the three of them were having a good time, the housekeeper came to report that Marquis Yun and the Second Master of Duke Yang's Mansion were here.

Yan Mu raised his eyebrows, "I haven't gone to find them yet, but they came to the door first."

Liu Yunxiang frowned, but still told Yan Mu not to be too impulsive.

"Don't worry, I will definitely greet them well."

When they came to the front hall, Marquis Yun and Xue Er were already inside. When they saw Yan Mu coming in, they stood up and saluted.

Marquis Yun's father is the younger brother of the Queen Mother, which means that Marquis Yun is the emperor's cousin. According to his seniority, he can be regarded as Yan Mu's cousin. However, Marquis Yun is about the same age as Yan Mu. He is fair-faced and beardless, has a good appearance, wears plain robes, and has a rather bookish air. As for Xue Er, he and Xue Hefeng are brothers, but they look nothing alike. Xue Hefeng is handsome, but Xue Er has a sinister eyebrow, a bent back, and a mean smile.

"You two, please take a seat." Yan Mu waved his hand, walked to the front and sat down on the main seat, "You two came to my palace today, you must have something to do, right?"

The Marquis of Yun lowered his eyes and remained silent for a moment, then said: "Your Majesty, the Seventh Highness, the Emperor trusts his ministers, and the ministers are one family. Even so, I have never dared to go beyond the rules. Otherwise, I should correct Your Majesty the Seventh Highness at this time. You should understand when you see your elders." Be polite."

Yan Mu smiled and asked him to lower his head and call him cousin.

"Tsk, tsk, it's a pity that I have always been rude."

Marquis Yun's face sank, "No wonder the princess is not polite. After all, Chen's wife is her cousin-in-law. She actually made her kneel down and kowtow for a trivial matter. Her head was bruised and bleeding from the kowtow, and she fainted before she got home."

"Tsk, I wonder what Mrs. Yunhou has committed. How dare she offend my king's concubine?"

"Your Highness!" Marquis Yun's face turned green, "Is it inappropriate for Your Highness to defend the princess like this?"

"If I don't protect my own wife, how can I protect yours?"

"you!"

"So Mrs. Yunhou will be careful in her words and deeds in the future, especially in front of the princess. She must not play any tricks. If she offends the princess, she will offend the king!"

Marquis Yun's face was completely blue. He still didn't expect Yan Mu to protect Liu Yunxiang without asking what happened.

Xue Er smiled at this time, stood up and said, "It seems that His Highness still doesn't know what happened."

Yan Mu glanced at Xue Er, "Then tell me."

Xue Er pushed Qin Yan and others into the pond, and did not allow his son Xue Meng, Yun Hou's son Liang Wen'an and others to save people. The fight between the two sides was told to Yan Mu.

"My nephew Xue Kong is still suffering from a high fever. He is in a daze, but the third child is very anxious." After Xue Er finished speaking, he raised his eyes and glanced at Yan Mu.

Marquis Yun snorted coldly: "This matter is neither a big deal nor a small matter. Fortunately, the Xue family's children have been rescued. But if there is something wrong, can Your Highness and the Princess still protect the young prince?"

Yan Mu narrowed his eyes, "But I heard from the young prince that there was another situation. It was the children of your two families who pushed Xue Kong into the pond. The young prince and the other two children were the ones who rescued people, but they narrowly escaped the fate of you two. The poisonous hand of a child. This matter is indeed not a small matter. After all, the young prince has an injury on his forehead. I will not let anyone offend him easily."

"You dare to tell such a big lie at such a young age. It seems that Your Highness should educate your children properly."

"But I think you two children lied."

"Your Highness, my nephew did not dare to tell the truth in front of the young prince and the others, for fear of being beaten by them later. But when he got home, he said that it was indeed the young prince and the three of them who pushed him into the pond. My son was beaten when he tried to save his brother. After being beaten, the young master of the Marquis Yun family was also beaten up by the young prince of your family, who also acted righteously to save others." Xue Erdao.

Yan Mu twitched his lips after hearing this, "My son can't lie, so they lied."

"Your Highness, you can't be so unreasonable, right?"

"I have said that the young prince will not lie. As for the virtues of your children, you yourself know it well."

"you!"

Yan Mu waved his hand, "I said they lied, and they lied. You two can cross-examine them when you go home."

Marquis Yun snorted, "If Your Highness doesn't give us an explanation today, we won't leave!"

"Yes, Mrs. Hou was injured, my wife was also injured, and the children of both families were also injured and wronged. We don't want to make the matter a big deal, but His Highness must have an attitude, and it will cause trouble for our two families. It seems like a bully." Then Xue Er sat back with the help of Marquis Yun.

He said he didn't want to make a big deal out of it, but what were the two of them doing?

Yan Mu nodded, "Since you two want to sit for a while, I will sit with you. Butler, ask someone to bring you tea. I want good Longjing tea."

After a while, tea was delivered, and a cup was placed on the table next to Marquis Yun and Xue Er.

Yan Mu picked up the cup in front of him, raised it and said to Marquis Yun and Xue Er, "Try it, you two."

Marquis Yun snorted coldly, "Your Highness, it's better to take a stand quickly and don't waste each other's time."

"I'm offering tea to you two, but you won't drink it?"

Yun Houmo, he came today to seek justice for his wife and children, but he did not have to offend Yan Mu. After a slight hesitation, he picked up the cup of tea in front of him. Seeing this, Xue Er also picked it up.

"You two please."

Yan Mu lowered his head and took a sip.

Marquis Yun and Xue Er also lowered their heads to drink tea, and then put it down after taking two sips.

"Your Highness's tea is good, but..."

"There's no rush. You two will sit down for a while. I will go back to the backyard and ask the young prince properly." After saying this, Yan Mu stood up and went out without waiting for Marquis Yun and the others to say anything.

Marquis Yun took a deep breath and told Xue Er next to him to wait a little longer.

However, after a while, Xue Er suddenly felt a stomachache and immediately wanted to go to the toilet. He quickly got up and rushed out, asking the servants guarding outside to take him to the latrine. Marquis Yun was about to scold Xue Er for being too troublesome. At this time, he also felt a stomachache. He gritted his teeth and held it in while looking at the cup of tea on the table next to him.

This Yan Mu... is too muddy!
