The Abandoned Wife of a Military Family: Your disguise has been exposed again.

Chapter 173 Responding to Yunwei
Yun Qi was absolutely furious.

What did he do to deserve being scolded like this by his father?
He retorted, "If you feel so sorry for her, then go ahead and feel sorry for her, but don't drag others into it. Also, the reason she got her face slashed by Yun Wei last time was entirely her own fault. She tried to harm Yun Wei first, which is why she got her face slashed in return. And she has the nerve to cry and complain to you about it."

Yun Yueshan was taken aback, looked at Yun Wei, and frowned, asking, "Is what Yun Qi said true?"

"Does it matter whether it's true or not? Haven't you already chosen to believe Yun Yao's one-sided story?" Yun Wei said coldly.

Yunyue Mountain choked.

"Father, although some of what I'm about to say may be hard to hear, I still have to say it. Yun Yao is always good at playing the victim and pretending to be innocent. Not only does she stir up trouble in front of you, but she also instigates Xia'er to do bad things to Weiwei. She's really not as innocent as you think." Madam Qi frowned and couldn't help but speak up.

Yun Yueshan's expression instantly became complicated. He looked at Xia'er, "Xia'er, you..."

"Xia'er knows she was wrong. Xia'er shouldn't have listened to her aunt and thrown mud at her aunt..." Xia'er was frightened by her grandfather's sudden outburst. When she saw him looking at her, she thought he was angry about what she had done, and burst into tears. She quickly apologized to Yunwei beside her, "Aunt, I'm sorry, Xia'er was wrong. Please tell Grandpa not to be angry..."

Yunwei took a handkerchief and wiped away her tears. "Xia'er did nothing wrong. The fault lies with others. It has nothing to do with you. Don't cry."

"It really wasn't Xia'er's fault?" Xia'er said, crying.

“Yes, it’s not your fault,” Yunwei said firmly.

Xia Jie'er stopped crying.

After appeasing her, Yun Wei stood up and looked coldly at Yun Yueshan. "I didn't really want to come to your birthday party, but considering that you gave birth to me, I thought it wouldn't hurt to have a meal with you. But next time, don't send anyone to call me."

After saying that, she turned and walked outside.

"Weiwei!" Upon seeing this, Madam Xu hurriedly chased after her.

"Auntie!" Xia'er ran out after her.

Madam Qi also grew anxious and nudged Yun Qi, "Aren't you going to hurry up and chase after them?"

Yun Qi quickly got up and chased after him.

After Qi Shi left, only Yun Yueshan remained in the large hall.

Looking at the untouched dishes on the table, he suddenly felt regret.

Xu caught up with Yunwei outside the door.

"Weiwei, we haven't eaten yet, don't rush off..." When she met Yunwei's cold eyes, she paused and changed her words, "Your father isn't targeting you, he's just upset that Yunqi lied to him."

Yunwei said with a laugh, "On the surface, he is blaming Yun Qi, but in reality, he wants to make trouble for me. He blames me for hurting Yun Yao. You all only care about Yun Yao and don't care about the truth of the matter."

Seeing her like this, Madam Xu panicked a little. "It's not like that. Mother didn't see clearly before and was deceived, but that won't happen again, I..."

Yunwei, impatient to listen to her anymore, pushed her aside and got into the carriage.

Xia'er cried, "Auntie, are you never coming again? Xia'er already knows she was wrong..."

Yunwei lifted the carriage curtain and said to her niece below the carriage and Qi Shi who had chased after her, "I'm not coming, but you can find me at the county princess's residence." After saying that, she lowered the curtain and instructed, "Azheng, let's go."

"Yes." Ah Zheng cracked his whip, and the carriage immediately started moving.

As the carriage drove further and further away, the people in front of the Marquis's mansion all wore complicated expressions.

"Yun Yao is such a troublemaker! She ruined a perfectly good birthday banquet like this." After a long while, Yun Qi said angrily.

Xu sighed, a sense of resentment rising in her heart.

It was only with great difficulty that my relationship with Weiwei improved, but now it's all back to square one.

Furthermore, Yunwei was riding in the carriage driven by Azheng when the carriage suddenly came to a sharp stop halfway there.

Tian'er was startled and hurriedly asked, "A-Zheng, what's going on?" "Someone has blocked the carriage." Outside, A-Zheng frowned as he looked at the people blocking the carriage, his hand already quietly reaching for the knife under his seat, and replied indifferently.

Tian'er's expression changed, and she looked at Yunwei, "Miss, what's going on?"

Yun Wei remained silent, a hint of fierceness flashing across her eyes.

"The one inside must be Miss Wang, the disciple of the Divine Physician, right?" someone asked loudly from outside.

"You've mistaken me for someone else. There's no Miss Wang or disciple of the Divine Physician here," A-Zheng said coldly.

"You brat, if you know what's good for you, leave the carriage here and get out of here, or I might spare your life," someone shouted angrily.

"Those who wanted to be my grandfather are already in the underworld. Since you want to keep them company, I'll grant your wish!" A-Zheng drew the knife from his seat, leaped up, and slashed at the group of people.

"Oh ho, he's actually a trained fighter!" someone chuckled, raising their weapon to meet the attack.

For a time, the sounds of swords clashing filled the air.

Tian'er turned pale with fright and moved closer to Yunwei, "Miss, what should we do? We've probably encountered some villains."

"It's alright, don't be afraid," Yun Wei reassured her, then opened the car window and peered through the crack at the battle situation outside.

There were eight people fighting with Ah Zheng. Judging from their clothes and martial arts style, they should be people from the martial arts world, and their martial arts skills were not weak.

Tian'er saw it too, and her heart clenched. "Miss, can A-Zheng beat them?"

Yunwei said, "It's a bit of a stretch."

"What should we do then?" Tian'er asked worriedly.

Yun Wei didn't speak. Just as she was about to go out to help A Zheng, the sound of metal clashing against metal rang out in the street. Immediately afterward, a cold, sharp male voice rang out, "Who are you people? How dare you cause trouble here! Arrest you all!"

Sweetie was overjoyed, "Miss, it looks like Guard Qingfeng!"

"Mmm." Yunwei could tell too.

After a period of chaos, the sounds outside subsided.

"Your Highness, I am late in coming to your rescue and have caused you distress!" Qingfeng's voice rang out from outside the carriage.

Yun Wei rolled down the car window, glanced at the armored guards following Qingfeng, and asked, "Why are you here?"

“The capital has been quite unsettled these days. My master is worried about the county princess and has specially sent me to meet her,” Qingfeng replied respectfully.

"Your master is very thoughtful." Yun Wei nodded.

She hadn't expected that Rong Zhen would send Qingfeng and the Ironclad Guards to meet her just because she was going to the Yun family.

"Those people have all been captured. What does the county magistrate intend to do with them?" Qingfeng asked.

Yunwei glanced at the martial arts practitioners who were bound hand and foot, recalled what they had just said, and after a moment's thought, said, "Lock them up for now."

"Yes," Qingfeng replied.

"Guard Cheng, the Imperial Guards have arrived." At this moment, an armored guard stepped forward to report.

Qingfeng turned his head and glanced at the person in the lead. He frowned and said to Yunwei, "It's Li Yaoting. Princess, you should go first."

Yunwei nodded and instructed Azheng, who had returned to the carriage, "Let's go."

Just as Ah Zheng was about to drive away, a voice shouted, "Wait!"
