Marquis Xuanping raised an eyebrow and said, "Did you hear that? Then quickly get lost."
Nanny Gui gritted her teeth, "You..."
Whoosh!
Marquis Xuanping drew the long sword from behind his wheelchair.
"Murder ah!" Nanny Gui screamed in fright, clutching her head and fleeing!
The others also rushed to their own carriages, forgetting even to take the gifts.
Yu Jin directed the servant girls to throw back these annoying things into their carriages, and the group left in embarrassment.
Marquis Xuanping threw the long sword to the coachman and pushed the wheelchair into the courtyard.
He went to Princess Xinyang's room, and as expected, she hadn't slept at all.
She sat at the bedside, her face pale.
The wheelchair couldn't enter the room.
Marquis Xuanping thought for a moment, then stood up, lifted the wheelchair over the threshold, and sat back down.
He approached the bed, but Princess Xinyang turned away from him, her back facing him.
This meant she refused to communicate.
Considering her illness, Marquis Xuanping didn't dare to get too close.
After looking around and confirming that the doors and windows were open, he opened his mouth, "Qin Fengwen..."
"Don't ask." Princess Xinyang said softly.
Marquis Xuanping paused, swallowing the words he was about to say, "Fine, I won't ask. I just came to tell you, you are my wife, and no one can bully you."
With that, he intended to push the wheelchair out.
However, the person pushing the wheelchair wasn't very skilled and couldn't turn it around after pushing for a while.
He simply stood up and used his hands to grab the wheelchair and turn it in the right direction.
As soon as he put the wheelchair down, he heard Princess Xinyang mutter, "I am still an imperial princess."
Marquis Xuanping frowned.
Marquis Xuanping didn't stay here for long, fearing that staying too long would cause her discomfort.
But Marquis Xuanping didn't expect that as soon as he left, Old Liang Wangfei would arrive.
This time she came to visit in person.
Old Liang Wangfei was advanced in age, her body not as agile as before, often experiencing difficulties in movement. Although she could still walk, she mostly relied on a wheelchair for mobility.
The doors and windows were tightly closed, and the light was dim, with only Princess Xinyang and Old Liang Wangfei inside.
Princess Xinyang sat on the bed with a pale complexion and a quilt over her legs.
Old Liang Wangfei sat in a wheelchair in front of the bed, her two old, skinny hands tightly holding Princess Xinyang's hand. Choking up, she called out, "Nannan."
Nannan, Princess Xinyang's childhood nickname.
Princess Xinyang listened with a pained expression.
Yu Jin didn't dare to enter, and she also didn't dare to eavesdrop blatantly. She could only approach the door crack without leaving any traces and try to perk up her ears discreetly.
She knew she shouldn't do this, but how else could she understand the cause of the princess's illness?
She heard Princess Xinyang whisper, "Don't call me that, it's disgusting."
Disgusting?
This reaction——
Yu Jin heard Old Liang Wangfei's voice filled with guilt, "Nannan, are you still angry with your granduncle and grandaunt? Blaming them for not taking care of you? When you broke your leg in the mansion and were trapped in the well overnight, it was our negligence... Your grandaunt should have been more attentive... And your marriage with Marquis Xuanping... He's so rude and unruly... If we had known... Your granduncle and grandaunt would have stopped this marriage..."
"That's enough!"
"Don't be angry. If there's anything your grandaunt did wrong, just tell me. You can vent your anger at your grandaunt, scold her, hit her, your grandaunt will accept it. Your granduncle and grandaunt were forced to go to the fiefdom suddenly. Originally, we wanted to take you with us, but you are an imperial princess after all, you can't be by our side forever. Don't think that your granduncle and grandaunt abandoned you..."
Princess Xinyang was about to collapse.
Some truths could never be spoken aloud.
It wasn’t that the other party didn’t know, it was just that they rely on her reluctance to reveal that truth.
Old Liang Wangfei wiped her tears with a handkerchief, crying sincerely and apologetically, "You can blame your grandaunt and granduncle however you want, but your granduncle is getting old and won't last much longer. Before he leaves, he wants to see you. Your granduncle dotes on you the most. For the sake of the love he once had for you, go see him one last time."
Princess Xinyang clutched her chest and retched, "Ugh——"
She glared at her fiercely, her eyes red with anger.
How dare this person... How dare she say such things?
Princess Xinyang was trembling with anger.
Old Liang Wangfei, however, didn't stop, pleading with a sorrowful expression, all the while her eyes were filled with a woman's jealousy and disdain.
Princess Xinyang was about to collapse. Her body was shaking violently, tears streaming down her face.
She wanted to escape, but she felt trapped, with nowhere to run.
Everything began to spin, and the voices around her became slow and blurred.
Until she heard a scream from Old Liang Wangfei——
"Ahhh——"
A tall, burly figure strode in, his calloused hands grabbing Old Liang Wangfei's collar directly, dragging her down from the wheelchair.
Ignoring Old Liang Wangfei's screams, the other party dragged her all the way through the courtyard like a sack, and unceremoniously threw her out of the gate!
Old Liang Wangfei was old, and being dragged and thrown like that, she almost lost half her life.
"Wangfei!"
Nanny Gui and her group rushed over.
Old Liang Wangfei weakly leaned against Nanny Gui's embrace, panting heavily, looking at the tyrant-like man, "Marquis... Marquis Xuanping..."
Marquis Xuanping looked down at her condescendingly, "I respect the elderly and love the young, but I don't respect old beasts."
Everyone was shocked.
Had Marquis Xuanping gone mad? How could he speak like this!
Nanny Gui looked at him with rage filling her chest, "Marquis Xuanping! How dare you insult Old Liang Wangfei like this! Aren't you afraid of losing your head?"
Marquis Xuanping chuckled and kicked out, flipping Old Liang Wangfei and Nanny Gui upside down!
Old Liang Wangfei spat out blood on the spot!
Everyone was stunned!
They recalled the rumors in the capital.
Marquis Xuanping had always been the talk of the town among the common folk of the capital, but most discussions were about his romantic escapades and shamelessness. As for his temper, it was rarely criticized by anyone.
He rarely got into heated arguments with people, at most, he would behave shamelessly.
He would always mess with people with a smile.
However, at this moment, he was enveloped in a layer of frost, like a gleaming cold sword.Raz P.'s Thoughts
