"How dare you talk back!"
Si Liyan raised her hand to hit Si Qianqing again, but Mrs. Zhang rushed forward and hugged her.
Si Qianzhu, who had been silent until now, also ran over and hugged Si Liyan's legs, begging for mercy: "Mother, brother didn't mean it, please spare brother this time!"
After all, she was her only legitimate daughter, and she had been pampered all her life. When Si Liyan saw her daughter begging for mercy, her heart instantly softened.
"Xiao Ling, look, your brother didn't mean it. Why don't you let him apologize to you and then punish him with confinement for a month..."
Si Qianling thought that Si Liyan would punish Si Qianqing lightly, but he did not expect that they would be so shameless.
However, before Si Qianling could get angry, a burst of laughter came from the entrance of the courtyard.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk...Sister Eight Emperors, it seems that we didn't come at the right time!"
"Master Su Wensi is very strict in running the family, but this palace is ignorant."
"Oh, who is this cruel person? How did he beat this person like this?"
Several female voices in succession scared everyone in the courtyard to their knees.
Si Qianling followed the sound and met the woman's slightly frowning brow.
Su Qiruo raised her hand to signal the imperial doctor to come forward, "Go and take a look at his injuries first."
Si Qianling's eyelashes trembled, and he stood up and walked to Su Qiruo's side.
"Your Highness."
Su Qiruo gently held his hand, her tone was rare and gentle.
"I'm late."
Si Qianling shook his head, but did not dare to raise his head and meet her eyes.
He thought that she really wouldn't come today, and she just said casually to him yesterday, but he didn't expect that she actually went to find someone. She said that she would definitely help him get his dowry back, so that was it.
"I have seen the eighth princess, the ninth princess, the daughter of Prince Ming, and the daughter of Prince Rong."
Si Liyan hurriedly received the gift. None of the four people who came were simple.
The Ninth Prince's daughter has been wearing the same pants as the Eighth Prince's daughter since she was a child, and she always looks after her.
Prince Ming and Prince Rong are the emperor's biological sisters. These two daughters are also the only legitimate daughters in the family. They are so spoiled that no one dares to offend them.
Back then, a royal censor implicated the daughter of Prince Ming when he complained. His Highness Prince Ming immediately made a fuss in the Jinluan Palace. He had to ask the emperor for an explanation. He dared to unjustly accuse her daughter. There was no way.
The emperor was so troubled that he had no choice but to demote the censor and send him to the southwest.
Back then, the fight for the right to inherit the throne was fierce. His Highness Prince Ming and His Highness Prince Rong both lost half their lives for the sake of the emperor. The emperor also loved and trusted these two sisters very much.
Now that the four most untouchable demon kings in the capital have suddenly arrived, Si Liyan doesn't think this is a good thing.
Everyone in the Si family also greeted them, but Su Qiruo did not respond. The three people behind just smiled and looked at everyone in the Si family, their eyes full of contempt.
This old guy usually acts like a dog, but he is actually indiscriminate at home.
Fortunately, she still managed to reach the position of Minister of Rites. I don't know how much manipulation she had done in the promotion and demotion of those officials.
The imperial doctor was obviously Su Qiruo's man. After checking his pulse, he knew that Liu's father was fine, but when he met the butler's narrowed eyes, he understood instantly.
"When I return to Your Highness, the patient has serious skin injuries and has not received timely treatment. He needs to be well cared for with good medicine."
"Steward Liu, take him down for treatment."
Su Qiruo ordered to the housekeeper, but Father Liu didn't want to leave. He hadn't gotten back the dowry for the young master yet!
Seemingly sensing his worries, the housekeeper echoed: "With His Highness here, the king cannot suffer any loss."
