Lying in bed, doing nothing, he went through the events of the night again in his mind. As he leaned over, his eyes drifted across the table, and when he saw the box on the table, he remembered that it contained the golden hairpin that Imperial Concubine Liu had given him.

The golden hairpin was shaped like a butterfly, and the red garnet adorned on the side should have seemed luxurious and grand. However, because of the layers of material on top of the hairpin, the golden hairpin had turned into a noble looking girl with gentle eyes.

He got up from the bed and took out the golden hairpin to play with it. He looked at the hairpin for a while and realized something was wrong. However, the next second, when the hairpin fell from his hand and hit the table with a crisp sound, he realized something was wrong.

The golden hairpin was made of gold, and she had a feeling that there was something wrong with its weight. The crisp sound from earlier made her realize that the hairpin was hollow.

"This is …"

After a moment of careful observation, he saw that the hollow surface was still the same as a normal golden hairpin, but after a slight rotation, a slip of paper lay quietly within the hollow surface.

Her expression turned cold as she took out the note and opened it. However, she found that the words on it were strange and did not resemble the words in Wu Country at all. She did not recognize any of them.

If it wasn't for the fact that he had seen this handwriting somewhere before, he felt that he could have even fallen asleep now.

Forget it, I'll just keep it for now. This golden hairpin won't be able to escape anyways.

After putting everything away, he lay down on his bed and quickly fell asleep. Perhaps it was because he was daydreaming, but the golden hairpin and the note had actually appeared in his dreams. The words on the note seemed to have been written on another piece of paper. However, that piece of paper was actually thrown into a brazier and burned to death.

When she woke up from her dream, the sky had already brightened, and she was no longer able to sleep. The servant girl that was waiting outside asked softly: "Young miss is awake? Do you want to wash now? "

Yu Yu held his head in a daze for a while, and then said to the outside: "Come in."

After placing the basin of water on the shelf, the servant girl saw that she had already put on her clothes. After bowing, she left to prepare breakfast. The slight chill from the cold water on his face immediately made him sober up.

After cleaning himself up, he barely thought about the note. It was only when the maidservants came did he learn that the breakfast was already prepared and that Yu Zheng was also in the hall. After eating, he let Yu Yu go to his study.

It was only because of what happened last night. It was rare for the government to call her that.

"Xiao'er, you are always sensible and I don't worry too much about you. What happened yesterday was Qi'er's fault, but it is also a matter that people are talking about. So dad wants you to bury this in your stomach, do you understand?" It was as if she had never had to listen to him.

What a hypocrite.

"Whatever father says, I will naturally listen to him." There was no rebuttal. She had never intended to speak of this matter, nor did she intend to go down the hill with the government.

"After all, the family is too ugly to talk about, and it would only be a disgrace if word of it were to spread. Daddy saw that you're not an ignorant person, so let's end this matter here."

"I understand."

The answer was less than quick, but the next second, she realized that the original owner usually didn't fight over it, neither did he say anything. Wasn't this the same as being bullied to the point that even her soul was gone?

Thus, after agreeing to the term "political", his expression immediately changed. Even his tone carried a hint of accusation as he said, "I understand what father is saying, but this time, Qi'er and mother went too far. My father had always ignored the harem. He had always thought that since it was my mother and sister, it was only right for me to put up with it. But now? "

"Now my mother says that I met a wild man in private, and my sister covets my fiancé. What am I supposed to do? "Father, do you know that our son's monthly allowance was deducted, his new clothes were removed, and even his food didn't reach the standard? When Qi'er and her mother acted like this, you have forgiven them."

There was a slight note of dissatisfaction and irony in his voice, as if he had succeeded in making himself look miserable and less political.

"Father, the heart is made of flesh and blood. Over time, what kind of attitude do you think I should have towards mother and sister? For my father's sake, I can stop pursuing this matter, but what if I meet him again in the future? I don't want to swallow my anger. "

The words that came out sounded loud and clear. Yu Zheng didn't believe Zhao Yuanzhi and Yu Yuqi as he usually did, probably because he hadn't expected that her wife and daughter would do such a thing to harm his other daughter. Yu Jin, who couldn't help but excuse them, shut his mouth and felt guilty.

"In the past, your mother was the one who did the wrong thing. I never expected her to do so many things behind my back."

Yue Zhong then indifferently shook his head, "Father, there's no need to look into the past anymore. I just want to get better in the future."

In fact, his mother was the one who looked the most different from him. As he thought back to the time when the Xie Clan stood in front of him, wearing simple clothes and smiling at him, his emotions were mixed and he felt more and more sorry for his daughter. His birth mother had died early, and his stepmother had been unlucky. It was time for him to teach Mrs Zhao a lesson.

"Don't worry, my son. I will beat up your mother. You can leave first."

Yu Yu didn't say anything more. Seeing that the desired effect had been achieved, he saluted Yu Yu and left.

After the door was shut with a creak, Minister Yu sat inside the study with a dark expression. After a long while, he finally called for the butler to fetch his wife.

The housekeeper went to look for Zhao Yuanzhi. Zhao Yuanzhi was already awake, so she went to visit Qing Feng Garden.

Last night's incident had dealt Qi'er the greatest amount of damage. As a mother, she had miscalculated. Otherwise, that little bitch would have lost her reputation last night.

"Madam, the butler wishes to seek an audience." When the maidservant brought the message, Zhao Yuanzhi told the maidservant to go back and let the housekeeper in.

The butler bowed when he saw her. "What is it?" she asked.

"Master wants you to go to the study room."
