Episode 3: The concubine of Duke Wei was kicked out

Shen Xihe and his entourage returned to the Duke of Wei's mansion after a long absence. The housekeeper A Qingbo's temples had already been stained with frost. Over the years, he had been thinking about the princess who was far away in the northwest. When he saw her safe return, his eyes instantly turned red.As for her half-sister Shen Yingluo, with a fake smile on her face, she stepped forward to salute her legitimate sister.In the backyard, Mrs. Xiao, the concubine of Duke Wei, was sitting uneasily, worrying that her son Xiao Jing would be exposed. Before she could think of an excuse to deal with it, Mo Yu, who was leading an attack to investigate, dragged her out of the main courtyard of her mistress.

This courtyard was originally the residence of Shen Xihe and his biological mother. A concubine with a humble background was not worthy of setting foot in this courtyard. It was she who had designed to climb into Duke Wei's bed, which caused Shen Xihe's biological mother to pass away in depression. Shen Xihe had carried this old grudge for many years, and now that Xiao Jing had plotted against her on the street, it was even more sinful. He immediately ordered the Xiao family to be driven out of the house completely.Shen Yingluo cried and begged for mercy for her mother, but Shen Xihe did not drive her away. Instead, she kept her because she would be needed in the future.The news that Mrs. Xiao was kicked out of Duke Wei's mansion in public spread, and the people in the capital realized later that she had been the false mistress all these years.Xiao Huayong, who had left Beijing on business before, finally rushed back to the palace. The emperor, who had always favored him, heard the news and rushed to the East Palace overnight to see his beloved son.

In order to show the uniqueness of the prince, the emperor even decreed that all the characters in the names of other princes should be changed to "长%". This unique favor was well known throughout the court.But Xiao Huayong has always been suspicious over the years. The incident of accidentally eating poisonous cherries when he was a child is definitely not an accident. He has been secretly planning for many years and must thoroughly investigate the truth of that year.On this day, Shen tide and Fengzhi entered the palace to meet the emperor. All the concubines in the harem coveted the northwest military power behind her, and they all came forward to introduce their sons to her, secretly or overtly.The princes in the palace also worked hard, showing off their talents and martial arts in turn, trying every possible means to please the princess who had a large number of soldiers.
