Wei Shuyan maintained a lukewarm smile and quietly observed Princess Xiyun's every move.

It is true that the Wei family is royal family, but because of the death of their aunt, the princess and the prince have always been dissatisfied with them. Although they don't say anything on the surface, there is a gap in their hearts.

He still remembers the bone-chilling look the little princess gave the Wei family when she left with the queen mother.

But now he comes to my house as if nothing happened, I'm afraid he has ulterior motives.

Before he could speak, the little princess spoke up herself, with a sad expression, "Xiyun has suffered so much outside these years, and now she is finally back. I thought everything would be fine, but who would have thought that one problem would be solved before another one arose."

"After so many years, the Queen Mother still doesn't like me and my brother. This time when she came back, she said a lot of bad things about me in front of my father. Xiyun, a little girl, doesn't dare to say anything. The Queen Mother is an elder, so it's okay for her to scold me a few times."

"It's just... I'm worried that my brother will be implicated. Uncle, you have to help my brother!"

She cried and looked at the Duke of Wei with sorrowful eyes.

"This, this...Princess, don't be sad." Duke Wei tried to comfort her in a hurry, but he didn't give a definite answer.

How could they not know about the problems between the Queen Mother and the Crown Prince?

The father and son exchanged glances, and Wei Shuyan spoke gently, "Princess, don't worry. Your Highness is the crown prince of a country, and no one will dare to make things difficult for you."

"My cousin is right. My brother is the crown prince," Princess Xiyun wiped away her tears and sobbed, "Our Wei family can't live without my brother!"

Having said this, any smart person could hear the deeper meaning behind it. The whole place was silent, and everyone was heavy-hearted.

Even Wei Huan, who had never been very smart, noticed that something was wrong. She swallowed and dared not say a word. After so many setbacks because of Cui Yingying, she thought she had made a lot of progress.

It’s a pity that no one knows where that bitch went and there’s been no news of her for a long time.

Otherwise, she could also go and have a fight.

Princess Xiyun did not say a word afterwards. Instead, she finished her lunch with the family and chatted with Old Madam Wei for a few private words before returning to the palace.

As soon as she left, Duke Wei and Wei Shuyan were called to the study by Old Madam Wei, and all the female family members were sent away.

"Xiyun has been a bad girl since she was young. What I said today is directed at you!" Old Madam Wei snorted coldly and knocked her crutch hard on the ground.

Duke Wei couldn't understand why. While comforting his mother, he said, "Then what do you think should be done?"

"What do you think, Shuyan?" Old Madam Wei looked at her grandson first and asked him what he thought.

Shuyan has always been her pride.

Wei Shuyan smiled, pinched her shoulders and said, "Grandson thinks we should just follow the princess's wishes!"

Although the prince has always been unfriendly to the Wei family, he has not yet reached the point of drawing his sword against them. However, if someone else were to take the position, the Wei family would certainly end up in a bad way.

The old lady nodded in agreement. "If one suffers, all suffer. If one prospers, all prosper. Although the prince dislikes our Wei family, he is still your nephew. If he doesn't become the emperor, can you still hold your position as the Duke?"

She was questioning her son.

Duke Wei pursed his lips and said, "I understand, son."

He really should do something for the prince, and he almost made a mistake.
