Dressed as a vicious stepmother, farming and raising cubs

The man's tone was somewhat casual, as if he was just passing by, walking through the crowd and walking to the front of the hall.

Everyone around took a breath of air-conditioning, and even the county master had a few drops of cold sweat on his forehead:
"Your Highness, why are you here?"

The person who came was none other than Prince Xian.

He was still dressed in the same high-profile manner, wearing an ice blue robe with gold thread, which made him stand out among the crowd.

Although Su's mother didn't know him, she saw this man's figure and temperament and knew that he was not an ordinary person, so she became a little nervous.

"I heard that there is a case here. I came to take a look. Don't be restrained." The prince smiled at the county master.

Su Liu suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, and sure enough, he saw the prince's eyes looking towards him.

"Boss Su is a friend of mine, so I naturally want to find out the situation."

As soon as these words came out, the people present were shocked again. Anyone who is not stupid would know that this was a statement of position.

However, the impression that this prince had given people before was that he was only interested in having fun, and no one could have imagined that he would come and interfere.

The scene suddenly reached a deadlock, and only Su’s mother spoke unwillingly:
"Sir, you must not be deceived by traitors! This matter is absolutely true. Please give my son justice!"

"Oh? Does this lady mean that I am the traitor?" The prince smiled softly, but his eyes were full of threats when he looked at her.

Mother Su was shocked by his eyes. After living for half her life, she still had some eyesight. She knew that the person in front of her could not afford to offend herself, so she spoke a little stutteringly:

"Caomin... Caomin doesn't mean that."

The prince snorted coldly, quietly approached Mother Su's ear, and whispered:

"If you have any objections to this prince, you are welcome to come to Prince Xian's Mansion."

At this time, Su's mother also completely figured out his identity. The reputation of Prince Xian's Mansion was still very popular among the local people, and it was almost regarded as the highest authority in Jade City.

Even the county magistrate is somewhat afraid of him. After all, compared to him, who is just a petty official, Prince Xian's Mansion is the real prince and aristocrat.

Seeing that Su's mother no longer complained, the county magistrate also wanted to learn about the case as soon as possible, so he filed the case again:
"If no more evidence can be produced, the case will be declared closed."

Su's mother was stared at by Prince Xian, so she naturally did not dare to say anything.

Unexpectedly, Shen Luochen, who had been standing silently beside him, spoke up.

"Prince Xian's Mansion is so majestic. Does this count as bullying the people?"

Only then did Prince Xian notice the masked man next to him, and he suddenly became unhappy:
"Who are you? How dare you talk to this prince like this."

Su Liu rubbed his forehead helplessly, wondering if Shen Luochen had taken the wrong medicine today, yet he was not afraid of being recognized by Prince Xian, and even took the initiative to attract his attention.

"His Royal Highness." She stood in front of Shen Luochen and explained with a forced smile.

"This is my husband, and he is here with me today."

"Oh? Since you are Boss Su's husband, why do you still speak for outsiders?" The prince raised his eyebrows and stared at Shen Luochen rather unhappily, with a puzzled tone.

"It's just that I can't stand the prince's words and deeds." Shen Luochen said lightly.

The smell of gunpowder in the air was getting stronger. Shen Luochen and Shizi were staring at each other, and although they didn't speak, it was obvious that they didn't like each other, and they were on the verge of actually making a move.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Su Liu quickly stood up to smooth things over. She winked at Shen Luochen desperately and whispered:

"Okay, His Highness the Crown Prince is also here to help us." She was worried that if the trouble continued like this, if the Crown Prince became more serious and really started to trace Shen Luochen's identity, there would be big trouble.

"Boss Su is indeed on my side."

Hearing her words, the prince suddenly smiled. He showed a proud expression and raised his eyebrows at Shen Luochen provocatively.

Shen Luochen snorted coldly, then turned away and said nothing.

Su Liu felt a little speechless. Why did these two people behave so childishly?

The county magistrate sitting behind the case broke out in a cold sweat, fearing that the prince would lose his temper again, so he hurriedly declared that the case was over and Su Liu was not guilty, and then withdrew from the court.

Although Su's mother was still unwilling, she was afraid of the prince's power and did not dare to cause trouble again, so she could only take Su Yun back to the village.

On the way home, Su Liu thought of Shen Luochen's abnormal behavior today and couldn't help but ask:

"What's wrong with you today? Why do you insist on choking with the Crown Prince?"

Shen Luochen's face still didn't look good. He looked a little unhappy and didn't answer.

Su Liu felt even more strange and joked with a smile:
"Is it possible that you are jealous?"

She had teased Shen Luochen with this before, but he didn't admit it at that time and she was just joking.

But this time, he nodded very simply:
"Ah."

Su Liu was shocked. She didn't expect him to be so frank, but she didn't know what to say.

And Shen Luochen continued:

"Actually, I know I shouldn't talk to him, but when I saw him approaching you, I couldn't help it..."

His expression was a little annoyed and confused at the same time, like a child who made mistakes in adolescence.

Seeing this, Su Liu was a little at a loss. Instead, he began to comfort him, patted his back gently and said:

"He didn't recognize you anyway, so don't be impulsive next time."

Shen Luochen suddenly turned his head to look at her, his expression very serious:

"My feelings for you have not changed, that's why I can't bear him getting close to you."

This was the second time Su Liu heard such a confession, and his face suddenly felt hot.

She didn't dare to look directly into that hot and direct gaze, so she could only lower her head and murmur in a low voice:
"Why are you here again?"

Shen Luochen looked calm and composed, and added:
"I said I won't force you. If I still can't take revenge after three years, I will let you go."

Su Liu's mood was very complicated. She didn't know what kind of feelings she had for Shen Luochen, but three years later, could she really leave without worries?
At least now she can't bear to part with these lovely children. When that time comes, how will she face them?

"Give me some time and I'll think about it carefully."

She finally said that she felt that she couldn't make a choice now, she just wanted to take care of her current life first, and she also needed to sort out her thoughts.

Shen Luochen didn't speak, just nodded slightly.

The two of them didn't speak again along the way, and Su Liu was once again embarrassed. She had almost forgotten what happened in the mountains these past few days, but now that it was brought up again, she didn't know how to face Shen Luochen.
