Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After returning to the capital, Wei Ting first went to the palace. Emperor Jing Xuan wanted to gather the ministers and generals to discuss the matter.

Su Xiaoxiao and the others returned to the Wei family.

Not to mention Su Xiaoxiao, Madam Li had also been through a lot in the past two days.

The people who usually took care of her in the residence did not feel that way yet. After going to the palace, she was worried about various things. Madam Li was extremely worried and swore not to bring her children out again for the rest of her life.

Unless they brought the entire family along.

“Grandma!”

The three children ran into Matriarch Wei’s room and threw themselves into her arms.

“My precious great-grandsons, come, let Great-Grandma see if you’ve lost weight!” When Old Madam Wei saw her great-grandsons, she carried them onto her lap one by one and was intimate with them for a while. She did not favor one over the other.

Then, she looked at Su Xiaoxiao and Madam Li, who had thick dark circles under their eyes, and asked in confusion, “What did you two do? Did you get beaten up?”

Madam Li thought to herself that it would be fine if she was beaten up. She could still beat up the attacker with her seventh sister-in-law.

Madam Li really couldn’t take it anymore. She yawned and said dizzily, “Grandmother, I’ll go back first. I’ve handed Xiyue and the others to you. You don’t have to call me for lunch.’

She wanted to catch up on her sleep.

Su Xiaoxiao also wanted to go back and catch up on her sleep, but she still had something on.

“You’re not leaving?” Matriarch Wei looked at Su Xiaoxiao strangely.

“I’ll leave immediately…” Su Xiaoxiao smiled.

Old Madam Wei refused. “Don’t smile. You look strange.”

Su Xiaoxiao took out the peachwood mirror and looked at it. The little fatty’s body trembled and she almost shouted, “Who is this female ghost?”

She put away the mirror and coughed lightly. She looked at the four children playing with building blocks at the side and sighed casually. “Time passes so quickly. In the blink of an eye, Dahu and the others are already three years old. If King Nanyang was still alive, he would definitely be very happy to see them.”

Old Madam Wei also looked at the four children. Seeing that they were focused on playing and did not notice the adults’ conversation, she said, “Why did you suddenly mention this?”

“Oh, I heard Sixth Brother mention it on the way back.” Su Xiaoxiao pushed the blame away without any psychological burden.

Matriarch Wei made another mental note of Sixth Brother. She wondered why he would mention it for no reason. What if the children heard it?

“I want to ride the west wind!”

Xiaohu ran out.

Dahu complained about his brother. “You’re always like this. If you can’t win, then don’t play!”

In the end, he went to look for Xiaohu with Erhu and Wei Xiyue.

After the children left, Old Madam Wei could finally mention King Nanyang in peace. “Fate makes fools of people.”

Su Xiaoxiao went with the flow. “What kind of person was Prince Nanyang when he was alive?”

Old Madam Wei recalled, “He’s quite a filial child. The late emperor had many children, and he’s the smartest one. Don’t think that Little Seven is the top scholar at the age of 17. King Nanyang has never taken the imperial examination. Otherwise, it’s hard to say if the youngest top scholar is Little

Seven.”

Matriarch Wei did not praise people easily, especially not Wei Ting. She only liked to complain about Wei Ting in front of him and was extremely proud of him behind his back.

Su Xiaoxiao exclaimed, “Is King Nanyang so powerful?”

Old Madam Wei said, “That’s right. Who didn’t praise the late Emperor for giving birth to a good son back then?”

King Nanyang had disguised himself well… Su Xiaoxiao didn’t obtain much useful information. Su Xiaoxiao decided not to tell Matriarch Wei that King Nanyang was still alive for the time being.

The people King Nanyang wanted to silence were those who had seen the previous emperor’s edict back then. The women of the Wei family were not within his range of extermination.

Su Xiaoxiao went back to catch up on her sleep.

On the way, when she passed by the courtyard of the eldest branch, she saw a tall and lonely figure.

It was Ghostfear.

He stood at the door of the courtyard and looked inside in a daze.

Su Xiaoxiao came to his side and said, “The golden orange tree in the courtyard was planted by Sister-in-law. She said that you like to eat golden oranges.

Even if you can’t eat it anymore, she still carefully planted it.”

Wei Liulang had already told him everything about Madam Chu, including the identities of Madam Wei and MO Guiyuan.

Ghostfear said calmly, “I haven’t recovered my memories.”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Oh.”

Ghostfear turned around and left.

Su Xiaoxiao glanced around and saw Madam Wei standing not far away with a basket of golden oranges. She seemed to want to come over but was very hesitant.

She watched her eldest son leave, a trace of sadness flashing across her eyes.

Su Xiaoxiao went over to greet her. “Mother.”

Madam Wei restrained the hurt in her eyes. “It’s Xiaoxiao.. How was your trip to the palace?”
