When the Crown Prince pulled a long face, he looked rather dignified. They were not from a noble family, so they naturally did not dare to lie.

Needless to say, Huangfu He knew that what Huangfu Lingyao said was true when he saw their panicked expressions.

His expression was cold and stern as he said, “The royal family is holding a Peony Banquet so that all the ladies can enjoy it together. You are so short-sighted and schemed against her before the banquet even begins. Your character is not good. All of you are expelled!”

The Crown Prince’s voice was loud and clear, and the women behind them were all finished. The families behind them were also finished!

Their official positions might not necessarily be taken away, but the Crown Prince’s words of ‘bad character’ basically blocked the future marriage prospects of these daughters of small families and also smeared the lintel of their families!

From then on, it would be difficult for the men in the family to advance in the officialdom, let alone cut off from the Peony Banquet. The status of unmarried girls like them would naturally drop.

Immediately, several women sobbed, but the palace servants immediately covered their mouths, not allowing their cries to disturb the noble and dragged them out.

After dealing with those few people, Huangfu He turned around and quickly glanced at Liu Shimei.

She kept her head down and did not speak. When Huangfu He looked over, Huangfu Lingyao moved a step and hid her behind him.

Huangfu He retracted his gaze and looked at Huangfu Lingyao. “Second brother, can you explain why you are here?”

The younger brother was tall, and Liu Shimei was completely hidden behind him. Even though he did not see Liu Shimei, Huangfu He could still see that Huangfu Lingyao was holding Liu Shimei’s hand. In his eyes, it was as if a bone thorn had pierced into his heart!

In just one night, the girl he liked had become his sister-in-law. Not only could he not have her, but he would also often see them being so intimate in the future. How could he tolerate this?

Huangfu Lingyao had been staring at Huangfu He’s eyes the whole time. Naturally, he did not miss the pain that flashed across Huangfu He’s eyes. He was delighted in his heart, but he still made a fuss. “1 want to be with Wife!”

At this moment, Liu Shimei had no choice but to speak.

Ignoring Huangfu Lingyao’s tight grip on her hand, she pushed him and walked out from behind him. She bent her legs and bowed to Huangfu He before saying, “Your Highness, this matter is my fault. King Dun Yu had a childish temperament, and this subject was worried about him being alone, so I begged him to arrange a position at the door. It wouldn’t disturb the defense between men and women, and I can also take care of him.”

Everyone’s gaze fell on her, but she remained calm and collected, accepting the gazes of others calmly and unwaveringly.

Of course, if she said this, people might laugh at Huangfu Lingyao for needing care despite being such a grown man. However, this was also the excuse she had thought of when she decided to sit together.

Her young puppy needed someone to take care of him. If she was willing to take care of him, what did it have to do with them?

Originally, it was indeed against the rules for them to sit together, but her young puppy wanted to be together and she was willing to spoil him. So what!

Liu Shimei did not know what kind of storm her words had stirred up in Huangfu He’s heart!

He almost could not hold it in, and almost exploded in front of so many people!

However, as the Crown Prince, forbearance was a compulsory lesson, so he gritted his teeth and endured it. “It doesn’t conform to etiquette, and it doesn’t conform to your status. Sit in the front!”

Huangfu He turned around and walked to the main seat. He ordered the attendant beside him, “Add a table next to mine and let King Dun Yu and Eldest Miss Liu sit there!”

It was a foregone conclusion.

Just like that, Liu Shimei moved to the position closest to Huangfu He. As he stared at Huangfu He’s back, Huangfu Lingyao regretted it to death!

However, he could not watch his woman being bullied by others without saying a word!
