The City Lord returned to his courtyard and sat on the silent stone bench.

After the rain, there was a hint of coldness about Thousand Mountains Island.

The trusted steward had followed him for many years and was already familiar with his habits. He got someone to bring wine.

The City Lord did not drink. Instead, he slowly poured the wine to the ground.

A guard came to report, “City Lord, Elder Li requests an audience.”

The mayor said, “Let him in.”

Elder Li came to the courtyard and stopped opposite the City Lord. He cupped his hands and bowed. “City Lord.”

The City Lord waved to his trusted steward to dispense with the ceremony.

The trusted steward understood and removed the wine. He also retreated.

“Have you been to the Hundred Flowers Palace?” asked the City Lord.

At this, Elder Li said truthfully, “Yes. I saw Princess Yun Shuang and told her about the Fourth Young Master’s murder. Palace Lord Yun Shuang said that it wasn’t the Hundred Flower Palace.”

The City Lord continued, “Did you remind her that someone wants to drive a wedge between the City Lord’s Manor and the Hundred Flowers Palace?”

Elder Li said, “I did.”

The mayor asked, “What did she say?”

Elder Li wanted to say something but hesitated.

The City Lord sighed. “Forget it. I guessed it wouldn’t be anything good. Even after so many years, she’s still holding a grudge against me for what happened back then.”

Elder Li could not answer.

The City Lord stood up and placed his hands behind his back. He looked at the dark sky. “If I had known that Yun Xi was pregnant, I definitely wouldn’t have fought her.”

Elder Li found it even more difficult to answer.

Seeing that he had no intention of leaving, the City Lord looked at him and said, “Is there anything else?”

Elder Li reported, “The old Palace Lord’s eldest daughter has returned to

Thousand Mountain Island.’

The City Lord asked, “Yun Xi’s sister?”

Elder Li nodded. “It’s her.”

The City Lord said thoughtfully, “I remember that she was expelled from the

Hundred Flowers Palace by the old Palace Lord back then, right?”

Back then, Yun Xue had stolen the medicine that the old Palace Lord had painstakingly obtained from Granny Ghost. That medicine was very troublesome to refine and the herbs were difficult to find.

Later on, although the old Palace Lord went to find the herbs for the pill, he was seriously injured. The matriarch died before she could take the medicine.

In a tit or anger, tne 010 palace Lora severed ms ratner-aaugnter relationsmp with Yun Xue and chased her out of the house.

The City Lord frowned. “Why did she come back?”

Elder Li said, “To take back the position of the Palace Master of the Hundred

Flowers Palace.”

The City Lord asked indifferently, “Hasn’t she already been expelled from the

Hundred Flowers Palace? Can she still come back to seize the position?”

Elder Li told him the news he had heard. “She spread the word that she has evidence that Palace Lord Yun Shuang violated the Hundred Flowers Palace’s rules.”

The City Lord said, “Doesn’t the Hundred Flowers Palace still have Yun Lin?”

Elder Li said, “It’s said that Yun Lin was carried over from outside and is not Palace Lord Yun Shuang’s biological son.”

The mayor paused. “Oh?”

Elder Li said, “Of course. These are all Yun Xue’s one-sided words. It’s impossible to verify if they’re true or not. However, according to my observation, Palace Lord Yun Shuang dotes on Yun Lin very much. If he wasn’t her biological son, she probably wouldn’t have done this.” The City Lord said nothing.

Elder Li asked, “Is the City Lord going to make an appearance?”

The City Lord said calmly, “It’s not convenient for the City Lord’s Manor to interfere in the Hundred Flowers Palace’s family matters.”

Hundred Flower Palace, Peony Pavilion.

The Palace Lord, who had sprained her waist, was carried to her bed.

She couldn’t move. She couldn’t move at all.

“Palace Lord, let me try,” Su Xiaoxiao said. Only her eyes could move. “What are you?”

Ling Yun said, “She’s a physician.”

“Such a young physician?” Palace Lord was exhausted. “Come on.”

Ling Yun and Wei Ting went out to wait while Ling Yin closed the door.

Su Xiaoxiao took out a silver needle from her pouch and said to Ling Yin, “Please let the Palace Lord lie down.” Ling Yin moved the Palace Lord.

The Palace Lord warned “Be gentle!”

Ling Yun turned Palace Lord over to let her lie on the soft bed.

Su Xiaoxiao unbuttoned the Palace Lord’s clothes and began to perform acupuncture on her.

After acupuncture, Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Palace Lord, try and see if you can move. ”

Palace Lord twisted her waist.

Huh.

She could really move.

It didn’t hurt so much anymore!

The Palace Lord could even sit up herself.

She stretched her arms and legs, feeling comfortable!

His daughter-in-law was really amazing!

No, this was not her daughter-in-law.

She didn’t have a daughter-in-law…

Palace Lord cried in her heart…

Fifteen minutes later, the Palace Lord called them in.

They included Ling Yun, Wei Ting, and Jing Yi, who was sent flying by her slap.

Fortunately, Jing Yi was young and could withstand the beating. He was slightly injured and was fine after taking Su Xiaoxiao’s internal injury medicine.

They sat on the futon.

No one said anything. The atmosphere was awkward.

Jing Yi looked at Wei Ting and said gloatingly, “Whoa, your wife and son belong to someone else.”

Wei Ting muttered, “Unfilial son, I just saved you!”

The Palace Lord only needed to look at Wei Ting’s face to know that the young brat and Su Xiaoxiao were not lying.

The three children looked very similar to him. It was obvious that they were blood-related.

The Palace Lord said, “I misunderstood. Also, I’m sorry for bringing Dahu,

Erhu, and Xiaohu to Thousand Mountains Island.”

The Palace Lord put on airs, but it was also dependent on the person.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Palace Lord and Ling Yun… Young Palace Lord, you took good care of Dahu, Erhu, and Xiaohu.”

The Palace Lord said with a dead heart, “You should call him Ling Yun. I’ll pretend I didn’t have this son.”

Ling Yun was dumbfounded.

The Palace Lord said, “You haven’t eaten, right? Ling Yin, are the dishes in the kitchen ready?”

Ling Yin said, “Alright, the dishes will be served soon.”

The Palace Lord said coldly, “Bring Young Master Wei, Madam Wei, and Young Master Jing over first…”

Her heart was bleeding.

Her daughter-in-law was gone…

Boohoo.

Ling Yin smiled and said, “Young Master Wei, Madam Wei, Young Master Jing, the dining hall is next door. Let’s go over first.”

The few of them went.

Looking at the suddenly empty room, the Palace Lord’s heart turned cold.

At this moment, Xiaohu, who was playing “chicken” in the courtyard, sang a sad and cold song:

“The north wind blows the snowflakes drift the snowflakes drift

Palace Lord wanted to cry even more.

Oh, the children she had was gone…

Not one, not two, but four!

Would you believe it if there were four?

Ling Yun sighed. “If you really can’t bear to part with them, just acknowledge

Wei Ting as your son.”

The Palace Lord stood up angrily and glared at him in anticipation of better from someone. “Do you think you can acknowledge a son just because you want to? I’m the Palace Lord of the Hundred Flowers Palace, not a commoner on the streets! What kind of person do you take me for? How can you be so rash?!”

Ling Yun picked up his teacup. “I was just saying. If you don’t want to do it, so be it.’

The Palace Lord snorted and angrily opened the cabinet. She took out a heavy box of gold and walked out. “Son! The greeting gift is here…”

Ling Yun choked!

Their parents and Uncle Jing Yi were all here. The three little ones turned into three little people again.

It was rare for Wei Ting to be a kind father. He said to Xiaohu, “Come, I’ll hug you.”

Xiaohu walked over and was forced to put on a show for a second.

Then, he immediately slid down Wei Ting’s leg and stretched out a small hand. He rejected with a serious expression.

“I’m done hugging!”

Wei Ting was speechless..
