After saying this, the senator's wife felt a burst of energy and blood, and she staggered and almost lost her balance.
"Grandma!"
Yan Mingzhu hurriedly supported her and ordered: "Hurry and help grandma back to the house!"
Qi Jue took a step forward, but before he could speak, Yan Mingzhu just shook her head at him and said, "Your Highness, please come back."
After leaving a few words, Yan Mingzhu helped the elder's wife back to the house.
Qi Jue still wanted to go, but this time, Mingtai stopped him.
"His Royal Highness King Dingbei, today was originally a great day for the Yongyi Hou Mansion, but you have messed it up. The senator's wife is old and cannot withstand repeated tossing. If Your Highness still has some conscience,
Please leave quickly!"
Qi Jue frowned and said coldly: "This is a matter between this king and the Yuan family. It has nothing to do with Ming Xiang. Get out of the way!"
Mingtai had been holding back his anger. Seeing that Qi Jue not only refused to listen, but also insisted on having his own way, Mingtai couldn't bear it anymore and punched him!
Qi Jue was focused on Yan Mingzhu and didn't even pay attention to Mingtai, let alone that he would dare to take action against him.
This punch landed firmly on the corner of the mouth!
"Jue'er! Mingtai, you...you are so bold!"
Concubine Zhuang exclaimed and quickly grabbed Qi Jue. Upon inspection, she found that the corners of his mouth were bruised and there was blood spilling out!
Feiyun and Feiyu immediately drew their swords, stood in front of Qi Jue, and aimed at Mingtai's lifeline.
Now, not only Concubine Zhuang, but also the Ming family themselves were shocked!
Father, he...he did something to His Royal Highness King Dingbei? He, he...he beat the prince!
Ming Xingjian was the first to react and hurriedly stepped forward to explain: "His Royal Highness King Dingbei, father made a mistake in a moment of impatience. Please forgive me!"
"You missed it? You're already bleeding and you call it a mistake? Mingtai, if you dare to touch my son, I will definitely go to His Majesty to sue you!"
Mingtai just sneered, "He deserved to receive this punch. In such a prosperous life of this girl's family, he allowed his mother to make trouble and said such words. You let her, a little girl, deserve to be punished in the future?"
How can you stay in the imperial capital? This punch will be an advantage for you!"
Concubine Zhuang was almost furious. Before she could refute, she was stopped by Qi Jue, who just casually wiped the corners of her mouth with the back of her hand.
"What happened today is my fault alone, and I am right to scold you."
Although Qi Jue had no intention of proposing marriage today, after all, Yan Mingzhu himself did not agree and he would not force her to do anything.
But he still said that Concubine Zhuang was too simplistic. Concubine Zhuang regarded his son as her thorn in the side and would not allow anyone to hinder his future.
The mother and son had not reached an agreement before in Huaqing Palace. Qi Jue's original intention was just to let Concubine Zhuang come to the Yuan family to show her respect for the Yuan family.
Unexpectedly, Concubine Zhuang immediately performed a triple jump, disrupting all Qi Jue's previous efforts.
Now, it's not that Yan Mingzhu doesn't care about what happened today, but after today's embarrassing incident, the Yuan family is even more dissatisfied with Qi Jue.
At this time, Yuan Jinshen stepped forward, raised his hand and said: "Your Highness, I'm sorry for the poor treatment. Please go back. Grandma and the others are angry. If you go there at this time, it will only add fuel to the fire. Let's talk about other things later!"
"
Outside the Hou Mansion, Zhuang Ke, who had arrived late, jumped out of the carriage in a hurry.
"Father and mother, hurry up, hurry up, we are all late for a long time, and we don't know how many interesting things we have missed. We are at a huge loss!"
Zhuang Guogong helped Mrs. Zhuang down without any haste, and said with a straight face: "Why are you in a hurry? Pay attention to your posture. It's just an ordinary flowing banquet. I have to drag your mother over with you.
You are so tired from traveling and traveling, don’t you know that your mother is weak?"
"Husband, please don't lecture Ke'er. Ke'er asked me first and got my consent before telling you. It's good to come out to relax occasionally."
Mrs. Zhuang spoke, and Duke Zhuang could only glare at Zhuang Ke.
Zhuang Ke stuck out his tongue and said, "Father, what you said is wrong. It is an ordinary banquet hosted by others, but it is different for the Yuan family. It belongs to our own people, so we have to pay great attention to it."
!”
"Ke'er, you...could it be that you have fallen in love with the girl from the Yuan family?"
Hearing Mrs. Zhuang's words, Zhuang Guogong continued: "Isn't there only one legitimate girl in the Yuan family, who seems to be calling her Yuan? You brat, when did you go behind my back and hook up with another girl?"
"Oh no, where are you all thinking? The one I'm talking about is Yan Mingzhu, Miss Yan San. She treated your mother at your sister's birthday party earlier. Mother, do you still remember?"
Mrs. Zhuang almost didn't mention it with her old-fashioned tone, "You...you have your eye on that Miss Yan San?"
Zhuang Ke: "..."
Dear relatives, can our thoughts be at the same point?
Just as Zhuang Ke was about to explain, he saw Qi Jue and Concubine Zhuang coming out of the Hou Mansion, and Concubine Zhuang's face looked very ugly.
"Hey sister, nephew, why did you come out so quickly? The banquet is over? It shouldn't be."
Zhuang Ke stepped forward to ask, but unexpectedly, Concubine Zhuang grabbed Qi Jue's hand and said in a very unhappy tone: "Go with me, and never have any contact with the Yuan family again!"
Unexpectedly, Qi Jue withdrew his hand directly, his aura was extremely low and cold, "Is the mother-in-law satisfied with this situation?"
"You...you kid, how do you talk to your mother and concubine..."
Before he finished speaking, Qi Jue said no more, turned around and bowed his hand deeply towards Yuan Jin, "I'm really sorry for today."
After saying this, he immediately got on his horse, flicked his whip, and his slender figure quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Feiyun Feiyu, hurry up and follow me. If anything happens to Jue'er, you must tell me immediately!"
Feiyun and Feiyu looked at each other, said yes, then mounted their horses and chased Qi Jue.
In just the blink of an eye, Qi Jue ran away, and Concubine Zhuang even sighed, while guests kept coming out.
Zhuang Ke, who had no idea what was going on, was dumbfounded, "This... sister, what exactly happened? You are so good, why do you tell your eldest nephew not to have contact with the Yuan family?"
There were eyes around her looking secretly at her. Concubine Zhuang also knew that family scandals should not be made public. Today's situation has become very ugly.
"Let's talk about it after we return to the palace. I'm exhausted."
Aunt Ren helped Concubine Zhuang get into the carriage. Zhuang Ke was unwilling to give in and ran over to ask Yuan Jinshen, "Second Master Yuan, what is going on? What happened at the banquet?"
"If you want to know, young master, you can ask your biological sister. She knows better than anyone else that there is something going on in Yuan's family, so I won't say more."
After saying that, Yuan Jinshen entered the house in a wheelchair. Fortunately, at this time, Yuan Yixiao slipped out quietly.
"Young Master, something serious has happened. Concubine Zhuang and my grandmother have had a falling out. I'm afraid the matter between my cousin and His Highness will not be settled!"
