Princess, she is the one who facilitated the extradition.

Before Mi Po could speak, Da Shan raised his large, fan-like hand.

"Sister, I know that Ma Xiafeng was in critical condition. The widow Liu from outside the mountain had an affair and was in critical condition. We still had to ask Doctor Bai to treat her."

Gui Yao, "..."

The illusion of his large size made her forget that he was still a child.

She put her finger to her lips and whistled. A moment later, a dark figure appeared in front of her.

They were secret guards from Prince Jin's residence. "Your Highness."

Gui Yao nodded and said to Da Shan, "Da Shan, I have something to attend to, and it's inconvenient for you to come along. I'll have him take you to see your brother-in-law first, okay?"

"Will you go after you finish your work, sis?"

A hint of unease appeared on Da Shan's face. "Can I go to my sister's house?"

He searched for three years, afraid that he would never find his sister again. Knowing where his sister lived, even if she had forgotten him again, he could wait for her at her house.

The mountains cannot enter the Xuanji Tower.

The guard, quick to read the room, said, "Young master, the place I'm taking you to is the princess's home, which is also your home."

Gui Yao smiled and said, "I still want to hear about your past, so of course I have to go back."

Go back and eat something first, then get some sleep if you're tired. I'll bring the lychee tree back later.

Hearing this, Da Shan was relieved. "You don't need to bring the trees. There are plenty in Lingnan. I'll send them to you again next year. You can just pick the lychees back."

He had just overheard his sister talking to the woman who was trying to steal the tree; the tree was used to set up a trap, so it definitely couldn't be taken home casually.

Fairy Wen said that officials are everywhere in the capital, and if you smash a plaque, you can hit several officials. I must have a hard time living alone in the capital.

We can't let him cause any more trouble for my sister because he can't bear to part with the lychee trees.

Gui Yao's smile deepened. "Alright then, I'll just bring back lychees for now."

Once we deal with that mother and child, we'll have plenty of opportunities to get the lychee tree back.

She told Dashan that he could tell his brother-in-law if he needed anything, and then she planned to be ruthless.

Da Shan called out to her again, "Sister, I won't sleep. I'll wait for you to come back before I sleep."

He still had so much to say to his sister, and he still had a river of tears left to shed—tears filled with his worry and longing for her.

Gui Yao was still a little unaccustomed to suddenly having such a younger brother. She waved to her and was about to leave.

Da Shan called out to her again, "Sister, this is a love potion made by Fairy Wen. She said that if you use this, you won't be able to walk past a wild boar. Take it with you."

Gui Yao asked, "Is Fairy Wen also my master?"

She was genuinely curious about what kind of place the bandit village was.

Furthermore, when she spoke with the Mi Po just now, Da Shan didn't show the slightest surprise.

Never mind, let's get down to business first, and ask him properly when we get back.

Unaware of what she was about to face, Yang lay languidly on the guard's belly after their lovemaking.

He chuckled, "Your belly is certainly comfortable to use as a pillow, but I still prefer its more structured shape."

Upon hearing this, the guard hurriedly replied, "I'll go back and practice."

The old woman is pointing out that he's gained weight.

However, since he started living well with the old woman, he has neglected his martial arts training, and his abdominal muscles are indeed not as strong as before.

But no matter what, she's still better than an old woman with a sagging belly. She thought to herself, but on the surface, she was respectful with a hint of allure.

"Please point out any areas where I need to practice."

Yang naturally understood the meaning behind his words, and moved her head down slightly.

Upon being touched somewhere, the guard immediately rolled over. "Then the little one will start practicing now."

The old woman said she would reward him with lychees. Although he didn't crave lychees, the lychees he had gone to so much trouble to obtain were more than just lychees.

That represents being cared about, and one's status in the household.

The Duke cares about the old woman, and the old woman cares about him. If word gets out, who in the manor would dare to disrespect him?

Lady Yang was getting on in years, and she was very gentle with her guards. After what she had just done, she was already quite tired.

Besides, judging by the time, the lychee delivery should be arriving soon.

But the guard had his own ulterior motives, and immediately began to flirt with her until she couldn't control herself.

Gui Yao used her light-footed skills to return to the Duke of Yue's mansion even earlier than Shen Feiwan.

Unexpectedly, that old lecher Yang was doing something shameless again, which made things easier for her.

She reached into her sleeve and pulled out the love potion that Da Shan had given her, sprinkling it into the room.

In bed, one person was enduring the nausea for the sake of their future, while the other, with a strong craving for food, hesitated about whether to have another round.

Stimulated by the powder, the guard looked at Yang again and saw that the old woman had transformed into Chang'e, the moon goddess.

Yang felt a surge of intense desire, wishing she could immediately devour the young guard.

In no time, the two of them were making the bed frame creak and sway.

The old woman was thin-skinned and had already turned her back on him.

Gui Yao covered her eyes with her hand, her fingers spread wide apart, but she only looked for a short while before losing interest.

It's really unsightly; her eyes have been stained again. She'll have to go back and give the prince a good look and cleanse his eyes.

Shen Feiwan hurried back to the manor with the lychee tree, and the maidservant had already run off to inform the Duke of Yue.

The Duke of Yue is still awake.

Firstly, he was waiting for the lychees; secondly, he also had something troubling him.

The Empress has been deposed!

This made him very uneasy without any warning.

I wonder if the emperor is going to crack down on the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion. He has done so much for the Duke of Zhenguo, so if the Zhang family falls, he will definitely be implicated.

Is it too late for him to switch sides at this point?

But since the Duke of Zhenguo is unharmed, his actions are tantamount to betrayal, and the Duke of Zhenguo will certainly not forgive him.

Upon learning that the lychees had arrived, he temporarily set aside his worries and immediately ordered his servant to bring a lantern so he could personally deliver them to his mother.

I'll also ask my mother what she should do.

Shen Feiwan was waiting on the way to Yang's courtyard. When she saw him coming, she hurriedly said, "I'll trouble you to take this to Mother. I'll go and rest now."

"Okay, go ahead."

The Duke of Yue was quite satisfied. "I have already spoken to Lady Wang and told her to set off tomorrow morning."

Instead of taking credit for him, this younger sister is quite sensible.

Shen Feiwan feigned delight and expressed her gratitude profusely.

The Duke of Yue was increasingly satisfied, and the corners of his lips were turned up in a wide smile the whole way.

But as soon as he reached the courtyard gate, a servant rushed over in a panic, "Lord Duke, something has happened."

Her smile turned to worry. "What's wrong with Mother?"

"Madam...Madam..."

The servant stammered, saying he really didn't know how to say it.

The dutiful son, worried about his elderly mother, pushed aside the servants and hurried into the courtyard.

Before they even reached the door, they heard Yang cry out, "Ouch, ouch, it hurts, it hurts so much..."

"Mother!"

He quickly pushed open the door, froze, and looked utterly devastated.

Two pale, white bodies, one fat and one strong, were intertwined.

Both of them had expressions of pain on their faces. When Yang saw that it was her son, she hurriedly called out, "Please call a doctor, please call a doctor quickly."

They couldn't separate anymore; if this continued, she would be in excruciating pain.

The Duke of Yue finally realized what was happening, and hurriedly turned around, instinctively wanting to call for a doctor.

But the words caught in his throat as he remembered what it was about, and he swallowed them back. "Guards, kill him."

The ones being cut down were naturally the guards.

"no."

Madam Yang quickly stopped her, "Go and fetch a doctor. Do you want your mother to die too?"

What if she gets cut but still can't get out? Wouldn't she be in danger too?

Being a filial son, he hesitated for only a moment before weakly ordering, "Quickly, fetch a doctor."

The doctor arrived quickly.

But the doctor was helpless; he had never encountered such a situation before and dared not act rashly.

Having no other option, I had to go to another clinic to ask for help.

The Duke of Yue warned the physician, "If a single word of what happened today is revealed, be careful that your entire family's lives are spared..."

Before he could finish speaking, a rough, startled cry rang out from above: "Good heavens, my goodness!"

"That old lady of the Duke of Yue is really playing games! She's even become inseparable from the young guard."

Gui Yao took out a black cloak from her spatial storage and ran around the rooftop of the Yue State Duke's mansion spreading the news.

"Serves you right! My master has his eye on the lychee tree, but before I could even get my hands on it, you greedy old woman beat me to it."

"Having lychees to eat isn't enough, they also want to eat their grandchildren's little bodyguards! Aren't you ashamed? Aren't you ashamed? Hahaha..."

"quick!"

The Duke of Yue immediately ordered his guards, "Quickly, seize him!"

We can't let him escape. If word gets out, how will my mother face people?

But Gui Yao's speed was far beyond the reach of ordinary guards. In no time, she leaped onto the roof of the neighboring mansion, her rough voice ringing out loudly in the quiet night. After shouting, she moved on to another house...
