Chapter 172 Si Family Parents Beg Qingbao and Her Daughter for Forgiveness

The next moment.

Behind the blue painting lies a painful truth.

He fell forward and passed out.

"A mere Nascent Soul cultivator dares to yell at me! How noisy." Fu Tu slowly withdrew his hand.

He floated there lightly, coldly glancing at the Si family members.

Although the Si family members were terrified, none of them dared to ask who he was.

Since Qingbao is a judge, it's normal for her to occasionally have a friend who is a ghost.

Qingbao cupped her chin in her little hand and said, "Take her to her room, and don't let her know that we know who she is."

Fu Tu is a vengeful ghost with the cultivation level of Tai Xu, and he can see all ghosts or immortals with lower cultivation levels than him.

But he couldn't detect those who were taller than him.

Therefore, on the first day the two maids entered the mansion, Fu Tu and Qing Bao sensed something and summoned the female ghost in the house to test the two of them.

Blue drawing is really stupid and not challenging at all.

"Take him away, take him away, don't get in the way." Qingbao waved her hand.

Si Ye nodded, "I'll go right away."

He was just about to squat down and fawn over her when he was kicked away by a black aura.

Fu Tu looked at him coldly, "Who do you think you are, daring to steal my job?"

Si Ye shrank back, covering his face and almost burst into tears.

Fu Tu swept away Qing Hui, his eyes filled with smugness.

After he left, the resentment that had been weighing on everyone's heads vanished instantly.

A moment of silence.

Madam Si ordered someone to prepare the meal.

“It’s been a long time since our family has sat down together for a meal.” She took Si He’s hand and looked at Minister Si and his wife.

They had been reprimanded by Madam Si, so their attitude towards Si He and her daughter had improved somewhat.

Madam Si hesitated for a moment, then said, "He'er, I was wrong before. From now on, you are my only daughter, and I will definitely love you well..."

She stepped forward, wanting to take Si He's hand.

Si He coldly dodged away, "No need. It's already the best that I'm alive. I don't expect anything else."

“He’er, to be honest, we are, after all, your biological parents…” Minister Si hesitated before continuing.

He had considered his words countless times, but he didn't know how to ask for her forgiveness.

But no matter what mistakes they made, they were still the ones who gave birth to Sihe, and blood is thicker than water.

"It can also be different, Your Excellency, Madam Si. I'm only letting you stay for dinner because of my grandmother. If you insist on having both, then don't blame me for kicking you out."

Si He frowned, her face full of impatience.

She doesn't want to hear any of this nonsense right now.

A faint black aura swirled behind them, frightening Minister Si and his wife into turning pale.

"I...we understand."

Her daughter was a third-rank imperial consort, and her daughter's daughter was a judge in the underworld.

They are people you can't afford to offend, whether in the human world or the underworld.

I just hope Qingbao won't retaliate against them.

Qingbao silently withdrew her dark aura and said with a smile, "Great-grandmother, does Qingbao like steamed egg custard?"

"Of course! I'll have the restaurant send over two tables of good food. In a little while, my great-grandmother will send some people over to tidy up the courtyard..."

Madam Si smiled and squatted down, stroking Qingbao's head, her eyes filled with joy and affection.

She said that Qingbao was exceptionally capable and had saved several members of the Si family from dire straits. How could she possibly be the jinx they were talking about?

What a good baby! He's actually a judge.

This truly brings honor to the ancestors of the Si family in the afterlife.

"There's no need to send anyone," a clear and gentle voice replied.

Accompanied by the eunuch's loud voice announcing, "The Empress Dowager has arrived! His Highness the Crown Prince has arrived! The Fifth Princess has arrived!"

The one who spoke just now was Xia Jingheng.

He sat upright as Fan Zhi pushed him in.

Fan Zhi lowered her head, her eyes revealing an unreadable emotion.

Everyone in the Si family bowed, except for Qingbao and Sihe, who did not kneel.

Madam Si asked, "What does Your Highness mean by this?"

"I believe that since Wanqing has already changed her surname to the imperial one, she is already a child of the royal family. A child of the royal family will naturally be taken care of by the royal family. Therefore, I will assign someone to take care of her, so that Your Majesty can feel more at ease."

The Empress Dowager finished speaking calmly.

Twenty guards and palace maids behind her knelt down in front of Si He.

"Greetings to Lady Sihe, greetings to Princess Qing'an."

The Si family members stood there in shock.

Si Han concealed the jealousy in his eyes, "The imperial guards are supposed to protect His Majesty. Si He has Qingbao protecting her, why waste her talents..."

Each of these guards held a higher rank than him.

How could he accept this?

Xia Jingheng frowned slightly.

The guard immediately stood up and slapped Si Han across the face.

"How dare you question the decrees of the Empress Dowager and His Highness the Crown Prince?"

Si Han's face was deathly pale, tinged with red, and he knelt down, covering his face:

"Your subject dares not."

Xia Jingheng waved his hand, "Get him out of here."

Family dinners don't need people like this.

It will only ruin Sihe's good mood.

Si Han was dragged away.

Si Ye clicked his tongue and shook his head, "I've made you my lackey, but you still look down on me."

If my elder brother had even a shred of awareness, things wouldn't have come to this.

The Empress Dowager's expression slowly softened. "Alright, you all go and tidy up the Princess's residence. Get everything ready by tonight, understand?"

The people they brought were all well-trained, and they immediately went down to assign tasks and tidy up other areas.

"Thank you, Empress Dowager, thank you, Your Highness," Sihe said to them.

The Empress Dowager grasped her hand, saying, "There's no need for further words between us."

She said "we," not "my wife" and "you."

The little boy beneath him, with a serious expression, slipped to Xia Jingheng's side and spoke in a low voice:

"Jing Heng, you returned the dragon robe. Are you playing hard to get?"

"However, I must admit that your method is excellent. With the Emperor kept in suspense, he will be even more willing to pass the throne to you next time. Our great cause will soon take a big step forward. Are you happy?"

The adorable little potato is seriously plotting with the crown prince to seize the throne.

Xia Jingheng's lips twitched slightly, but thinking that this would make Qingbao happy, he quietly replied,

"To be honest, I learned the technique of feigning indifference from you, Lord Sang Biao."

Qingbao raised her little head higher and higher, her face full of inscrutable wisdom. "This judge is no ordinary person. Young man, you are still too green. Follow me, and you will have much to learn in the future."

A chubby little hand patted Xia Jingheng's shoulder, speaking earnestly.

Xia Jingheng suppressed the smile on his lips. "Yes, Lord Sang Biao."

Fanzhi was completely dumbfounded after hearing this conversation.

Who am I? Where am I?

This three-year-old child in front of me is actually plotting for the throne with the crown prince?

They were still plotting loudly.

Your Highness, at least find a secluded place.

Everyone here heard it!!!

All eyes were fixed on Qingbao and Xia Jingheng with mixed feelings.

Qingbao stood protectively in front of Xia Jingheng, while the chubby boy stood with his hands on his stomach, speaking with full confidence:

"You little brats, you've all been captivated by this overlord, haven't you? It's not too late to switch sides with me now!"
