When Qin Wan heard Lin Chuan say that Su Lingyue had been waiting at the back door, his cold heart began to warm up.

She was very fortunate at this moment to have such a close friend.

Qin Wan Ning looked at Master He and said in a deep voice, "The princess was the first to discover that my medicine had been swapped. For so long, she never told anyone. If I hadn't been bullied to this extent, I think the couple would not want to interfere in the affairs of the He Mansion."

"Grandfather, grandmother, father, why don't you listen to the opinions of Prince Su and the princess?"

Qin Wanning's words were both an explanation and a notification. Things had come to this point and they had no choice.

Mrs. He never expected that Prince Su and the Princess would interfere in this matter.

Without waiting for Master He to speak, she looked at Master He and the old woman and began to cry, "Father, mother, Prince Su and Princess are on Wan Ning's side. For so many years, I have served them and taken care of all the affairs in the mansion, and I have never made any mistakes. Now, are you going to let two outsiders bully your daughter-in-law?"

Qin Wan Ning didn't want to give her another chance to explain, and asked coldly, "Mother, don't you dare?!"

Everyone noticed Mrs. He's strange behavior. As Qin Wanning asked, everyone's eyes turned to Mrs. He.

Looking at the questioning eyes, Mrs. He's face gradually turned pale.

He Yulin, who was standing by, recalled that his wife almost committed suicide because of his favoritism.

He deserves to die for forcing his beloved An Ning to such a point!

He Yulin walked to Qin Wanning's side, looked at Madam He and advised: "Mother, things have come to this point, what is coming will come, just tell me the truth!"

Mrs. He looked at her son in disbelief. He had completely sided with Qin Wan Ning.

She looked at Qin Wan Ning and He Yulin angrily, "Don't you want me as your mother?"

He Yulin looked at his mother who gave birth to him and said in a deep voice: "You will always be my mother, but if the emperor breaks the law, he will be punished just like the common people."

Looking at her son who had completely sided with Qin Wanning, Mrs. He's face was full of disappointment.

She cried and laughed and said, "I really gave birth to a good son! If I had known you would be like this, I should have listened to the doctor and should not have kept you when I had such severe morning sickness!"

"Shut up!" Master He held his forehead with his left hand and kept hitting the armrest of the chair with his right hand, shouting harshly.

In anger, everyone finally fell silent.

As for Xiao Yu, Master He had already gotten to know him a little after spending a few times with him.

This person's scheming and tactics should not be underestimated.

Since he chose to help his granddaughter-in-law, he might as well go with the flow. Even if what his daughter-in-law did was exposed, there would be no rift between him and his son.

For Xiao Yu, this matter did not matter to him at all.

Master He looked at He Yulin and said, "Since Prince Su and Princess Consort have a good plan, Yulin, you should go to the door with Wan Ning to welcome them."

He Yulin immediately bowed and said, "Yes, Grandfather."

After saying that, he raised his right hand and stretched it out to Qin Wan Ning, and said softly: "It's dark at night and the road is difficult to walk on. Can I hold your hand?"

However, Qin Wan Ning turned a blind eye to He Yulin's earnest advances.

After paying his respects to Master He, he turned around and walked out, completely ignoring the dejected look on He Yulin's face behind him.

Watching Qin Wanning's thin figure gradually walking away and disappearing into the darkness, He Yulin couldn't help but feel an indescribable sense of loss in his heart.

But he seemed to have made up his mind and quickly took a step forward to chase after him.

On the other side, Mrs. He, who was witnessing everything that was happening, turned extremely pale as paper and her body began to tremble involuntarily.

Finally, he collapsed weakly on the seat, his eyes empty and at a loss.

The biting cold north wind whistled past the gate of the He Mansion. In an exquisitely decorated carriage, Caidie, dressed in a pink long coat, was squatting in front of the carriage with her hands clasped tightly in her hands, her body curled up, and a look of contentment on her round little face.

Although the weather was freezing, it was much better for Caidie to be able to breathe fresh air freely outdoors than to be trapped in a closed and stuffy carriage.

Lai Fu approached Caidie curiously and asked in a low voice, "Miss Caidie, why did you come out in such a cold weather?"

Caidie turned her head slightly and replied in a low voice: "It was too stuffy inside, and the prince asked me to come out for some fresh air."

After hearing this, Lai Fu nodded thoughtfully, a knowing smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said no more.

Caidie sat quietly in the front of the carriage for a while, and suddenly heard a slight noise coming from not far away - the back door of He Mansion slowly opened.

Immediately afterwards, Qin Wanning and He Yulin walked out of the door one after another.

Upon seeing this, Caidie quickly jumped off the carriage and bowed to the two of them lightly.

"Cai Die greets the Crown Prince and his wife." Her voice was soft and respectful.

Qin Wan Ning smiled and nodded, and asked softly: "Cai Die, is Yue'er in the car?"

"In reply to the Crown Prince's wife, the young lady is waiting in the carriage. Please wait for a moment, Crown Prince and Crown Prince's wife." After Caidie finished answering, she turned around and knocked on the carriage door several times gently.

"Miss, Prince He and his wife have arrived." Her tone was particularly gentle, as if she was afraid of disturbing the people in the car.

In the carriage, Su Lingyue tried her best to break free from Xiao Yu's restraints, but when she saw that Xiao Yu did not continue to pester her, she stopped resisting. Xiao Yu finally let go of those two soft lips and curled the corners of his mouth with satisfaction.

"Yeah." Su Lingyue panted quickly, unable to utter a word, and just responded softly to Caidie.

She glared at the culprit in front of her with a coquettish look on her face, then reached out and held his slightly cool hands, pressing them against her hot and flushed cheeks.

Xiao Yu did not resist this contact. Instead, he held her blushing face with a faint smile on his lips.

Su Lingyue stared at Xiao Yu with her big eyes that still had a hint of mist in them.

At this moment, she felt that Xiao Yu's cold constitution was not completely useless - just by keeping his palm on her face for a short while, her burning cheeks could gradually cool down and return to calm.

"Let's go out and don't keep Wan Ning waiting for too long." Su Lingyue gently put down Xiao Yu's wrist and said softly.

"Okay." Xiao Yu responded in a low voice.

When Su Lingyue slowly stepped down from the carriage, she had returned to her usual dignified and elegant self; and Xiao Yu followed closely behind her, also displaying a graceful and composed demeanor.

The two of them slowly got off the carriage and stood firmly. Without waiting for Qin Wanning and He Yulin to salute, Su Lingyue walked forward.

"Wan Ning, how do you feel now?" Su Lingyue hurriedly took a step forward, held Qin Wan Ning's hand tightly, and asked with concern.

She knew in her heart that Wan Ning knew she was waiting here, and it must be Lin Chuan who told her the news.

Lin Chuan's appearance means that Wan Ning must have encountered some changes.

Looking at Su Lingyue holding her hand tightly, with an anxious and careful look on her face, Qin Wanning felt a warm current in her heart. The corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she smiled softly: "Yue'er, don't worry, I'm fine."

However, Su Lingyue still had doubts about Qin Wanning's answer, and continued to stare at her and asked, "Is that really the case?"

Qin Wan Ning lowered her eyes silently and responded in a low voice: "I was a little depressed just now, and I was impulsive and almost committed suicide. Fortunately, your guards stopped me in time." Her tone was low and her eyes revealed endless sadness.

At this time, He Yulin, who was standing aside, couldn't help but bow his head and blame himself: "This is all my fault. I didn't believe what Wan Ning said from the beginning."

His words were filled with deep regret, and then he promised in a firm tone, "Wan Ning, please rest assured. From now on, no matter when or where, I will stand by you without hesitation. This oath will never change in this life."

Su Lingyue held Qin Wanning's hand, her eyes misty, and said angrily: "You are really not very smart!"

Qin Wan Ning lowered her eyes, her eyes slightly burning, and she whispered, "Yes! I won't do that again!"

Xiao Yu, who was standing beside Su Lingyue, stared at Su Lingyue's tearful eyes with his deep and sharp eyes, and a trace of displeasure rose in his heart.

His face was gloomy, and he asked Qin Wan Ning opposite him in a low voice: "What is the current situation in the mansion?"

Before Qin Wan Ning could speak, He Yulin beside her said, "Your Highness, my mother denies all the witnesses and evidence. I heard that Your Highness and the Princess had a solution, so my grandfather asked us to come out and welcome Your Highness and the Princess."

After hearing this, Xiao Yu had a general understanding of the situation inside.

"Go in!" Xiao Yu's voice was cold, with a sharp sense of oppression.
