Father, who is both a heir and a descendant, is still biased; the bound system has gone berserk.

"Fu'er, she is... Princess Yaoguang? She's grown so much!"

Ying Zhuoxiu sighed.

Ying Yufu recalled Yao Guang's pale face just now and showed a look of sympathy.

"Brother, you don't know this, do you? You used to be her ideal man, she admired you so much!"

But your heroic act at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet nine years ago left a deep shadow on her.

Your white moonlight has turned into a black moonlight; she was probably too shocked to see you just now.

Ying Zhuoxiu was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing.

"Were you frightened?" Ying Zhuoxiu asked.

Ying Yufu smiled at him, pursing her lips.

Ying Zhuoxiu smiled gently, reached out and ruffled his sister's hair, and said, "Some things have already happened, and there's nothing that can be changed."

I can only hope that Princess Yaoguang will emerge from the shadows on her own.

"She was really shocked just now. Knowing her as I do, she'll be rushing over to see you tomorrow."

Ying Yufu said with certainty.

Ying Zhuoxiu looked somewhat helpless. "It was my fault for scaring her. If she comes, I will apologize to her in person."

"That would be wonderful, Yaoguang will be very happy," Ying Yufu said.

Shangguan Tang smiled at her two children and said, "Zhuo Xiu, Fu'er, there's a happy occasion today. Let's go see your maternal grandmother and celebrate."

"Great!"

Ying Yufu said happily.

Ying Zhuoxiu also smiled and said, "That's only right."

Wushuang silently followed beside Ying Yufu.

Shangguan Tang looked at her and said, "Miss Wushuang, you shall come along as well."

"Okay," Wushuang replied.

Shangguan Tang glanced at Wushuang again; she had a feeling that this girl named Wushuang was no ordinary bodyguard.

Of course, she has now gone from being a covert guard to an overt one, becoming Ying Yufu's personal bodyguard.

Despite being called a guard, her demeanor was in no way inferior to anyone else's.

Ying Yufu looked at Wushuang with admiration and said, "Mother, Sister Wushuang is no ordinary guard; she's very powerful."

Wushuang turned her head to look at Ying Yufu, a smile flickering in her eyes.

She was also a little curious as to why this girl admired her so much.

The carriage was quickly prepared, and Ying Yufu went to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion with her mother and brother.

She had already planned to give the Star Fruit to her maternal grandmother and second aunt respectively.

Meanwhile, Eunuch He went to the Marquis of Anqing's residence to deliver the imperial decree.

When she was brought back and had already woken up from her coma, Old Madam Huang almost fainted again after hearing the contents of the imperial edict.

"Marquis Anqing, Princess Baoyue, and Old Madam Huang, receive the imperial decree!"

Xu Xiaoyong and Xu Ning both accepted the decree with smiles on their faces, but Old Madam Huang's hands trembled, and it took her a long time to finally raise her hands and accept the imperial decree.

She received an imperial edict that stripped her of her title.

She held the imperial edict blankly, two lines of tears silently streaming down her face.

He muttered to himself, "Why did this happen? Why did this happen..."

Eunuch He gave her a cold glance, then turned to Xu Xiaoyong and Xu Ningxiang with a smile and said:

"Princess Baoyue, you must take good care of your health and not let His Majesty down."

The Marquis of Anqing should also make preparations during this time.

"Thank you for the reminder, Eunuch He."

The two said.

He Gonggong left satisfied.

Xu Ningxiang and Xu Xiaoyong got up together to see them off.

Meanwhile, Old Madam Huang stood up abruptly, her face filled with resentment. She glared at Xu Ningxiang with eyes brimming with hatred. "His Majesty has bestowed upon you the title of Princess?"

Xu Ningxiang glanced at her indifferently, then turned and left.

If it weren't for returning to receive the imperial decree, she would never have set foot in the Xu family again.

This is no longer her home.

Seeing that she was about to leave, Old Huang and Xu Xiaoyong both went to stop her.

Old Madam Huang said, "Stop right there. You're a princess now, so you can't just ignore your grandmother. His Majesty has bestowed a house upon you, so take your grandmother with you and go live there."

Old Mrs. Huang wasn't stupid; Xu Xiaoyong knew what she had done to Aunt Feng.

Now that she has lost her title of noblewoman, Xu Xiaoyong has become the master of the Anqing Marquis's mansion. She doesn't even dare to think about how he will take revenge on her.

Xu Ningxiang showed neither joy nor anger. "Madam Xu, isn't your granddaughter over there?"

Xu Ningxiang pointed behind her.

Xu Lingyi and Xiao Tao were seen wrestling as they ran out.

Xiao Tao didn't dare to fight back, for fear of hurting her.

"You lowly servant girl, how dare you stop me!" Xu Lingyi slapped Xiao Tao across the face.

Xiao Tao's face already had several handprints, and it was quite red and swollen.

Her eyes were red from the pain, and tears welled up in them, yet she still tried to stop Xu Lingyi from running forward.

Xu Lingyi came over and saw Xu Ningxiang.

"You're not dead, you're alive. Since you're alive, why don't you come back? Are you doing this on purpose?"

"Did you deliberately let this old hag scheme against me?"

Xu Lingyi then unleashed a frantic roar at Xu Ningxiang.

Her face was contorted with rage, and her demeanor was frenzied.

Xu Ningxiang frowned, her expression turning slightly cold: "It's just that you were greedy, so don't blame others for your mistakes."

Xu Lingyi roared frantically, "Nonsense! You're talking nonsense! I don't want to be exiled, but it's even more disgusting that you all conspired against me!"

Xu Xiaoyong said, "Miss Xue, I just received news that your parents were killed on their way to exile."

Do you know why?

Xue Lingyi turned her head and looked at Xu Xiaoyong in disbelief.

"Xu Xiaoyong, shut up!" Old Huang shouted shrilly.

Xu Xiaoyong didn't even glance at her, and said directly to Xue Lingyi, "Because you want to be the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Anqing's mansion."

Don't you think about it? In a noble family, how could you so easily mistake your offspring?

You dare to take advantage of such a cheap deal?

Madam Xu Huang wants to use you to bear a son to inherit the Anqing Marquis's mansion, so naturally she needs to confirm your identity.

She could even kill her own granddaughter; how could your parents possibly escape unscathed?

Xue Lingyi stood there, as if she had lost all her strength.

She collapsed to the ground, terrified. Xiao Tao rushed to help her up, but couldn't.

Just then, a commotion suddenly broke out outside.

The one leading them was a woman with a shrill voice.

"Let me in, you dog slave! You dare stop us? Do you know who we are?"

"Get out of the way, or your old lady will beat you to death!" the man's voice rang out.

Before long, a man and a woman came running in, both dressed in fine clothes and adorned with expensive jewelry.

As soon as the woman came in, she burst into tears: "Sister, you must stand up for Cong'er! He's so young, how could he be ruined like this?"

"Which bitch hurt my son? Sister, if you're too afraid to do it for your granddaughter, then I'll do it!"

As she spoke, she pulled a dagger from her bosom and stabbed it at Xu Ningxiang.

She still thought it was Xu Ningxiang who had hurt her.

Xu Xiaoyong signaled two guards to step forward and stop the woman from stabbing Xu Ningxiang with the dagger.

Xu Ningxiang remained expressionless and said to Xu Xiaoyong, "Thank you, Marquis Anqing."

Xu Xiaoyong said, "Ningxiang, there's no need to be so polite. I am, after all, your second uncle."

Xu Ningxiang remained silent and did not respond.

Although he is my second uncle, I have no affection for him.

Xu Xiaoyong was well aware that his assistance was due to the Emperor's high regard for Xu Ningxiang.

As for family ties, there definitely aren't any.

The woman was held down by two guards, struggling and screaming desperately, kicking her legs wildly.

"You dog servants, how dare you treat me like this? Sister, say something! Have the servants of the Marquis of An Ying's mansion rebelled?"

The woman shouted in the direction of Old Huang.
