On the night of the broken engagement, the paranoid prince came to me crying and asking for my statu

As if she didn't notice Gu Xiuyan's ugly expression, Mudan pouted and said, "My master doesn't know that when you called me 'An'an', your gentle eyes, which were misty with tears, almost drowned me. So, who is that girl named 'An'an' to me?"

"You men are like this. You always think your wife is not as good as your concubine, your concubine is not as good as your secret lover, and your secret lover is not as good as not being able to have a secret lover. Now that you have a lovely wife named Wan'er at home, you still can't forget that girl named An'an outside."

Gu Xiuyan's mind was filled with a mixture of regret in reality and remorse in his dreams.

A delicate voice, which Mudan deliberately suppressed, buzzed in my ears.

For a moment, he was upset and his tone became even colder.

"That's enough. Shut up."

After a low growl with a hint of coercion.

Mudan seemed to realize that the man in front of her was not an ordinary guest, and finally left obediently.

Gu Xiuyan looked at the mess on the ground and felt his forehead hurt even more.

Things have come to this point, what else doesn't he understand?

He was the son of the Duke of Gu and the current Junior Minister of the Dali Temple, yet he was actually plotted against! !

and...

He still gave a damned damned fuck about what happened in his dream.

What kind of situation would cause him to feel regret towards Su Sui'an?

And he was competing with a high-ranking eunuch for a woman he hated?

Don't be too outrageous.

On this side, Gu Xiuyan was "busy" all night without sleeping.

On the other side, Su Qishun and Liang were also anxious for the whole night.

For Liang, as long as her grandchildren are Su Qishun's children, it doesn't matter who gives birth to them.

Su Jinhao was gone, and although she felt sorry for him, she didn't feel too sad.

However, what Hong did to her and her grandchildren last night was enough to make her hate Hong to the core.

Hong only had a son who died, but she actually dared to dream of burying all the children in the Changping Marquis Mansion with him and ruining the reputation of other people in the Changping Marquis Mansion.

It's simply the reverse of Tiangang.

"No matter what, there is absolutely no way that Hong will be released again."

Liang took a sip of the already cold tea and concluded with a frown.

Su Qishun's mind was full of Zhao Qingwan's innocence being completely lost. He didn't know how to explain this to Qin Qing. He was so upset that even his tone of voice was much more aggressive than usual.

"That bitch..."

The moment the word "bitch" came out of his mouth, his first reaction was to think of Hong's mother's family...

In the end, he shut his mouth as if he had silenced himself.

Liang knew that he was afraid, but she didn't get angry. She just tried to persuade him, "What do you think about Cheng'er? We have already lost one brother, and we can't ruin Cheng'er again."

Speaking of Su Jincheng, Su Qishun also had a headache.

After placing Hong under house arrest in Fuyao Hall yesterday, Su Jincheng came to him and said shamelessly that Wan'er was not married anyway and was not his biological sister, and asked him to marry Wan'er to him, which might even create a good story.

As soon as Su Jincheng said this, Su Qishun was almost angry to death.

That evil obstacle.

Don't you see what nonsense he is saying and what nonsense he is doing?

If he had any sense of shame, he would not have attacked the women in the mansion.

Besides, that person is his...

And the poor scholar who slept with his daughter almost pissed him off to death with his words.

He actually dared to threaten him by saying that his daughter was given to him and that he wanted to buy him a house, otherwise he would not marry his daughter...

For a scoundrel like that, under normal circumstances, he would have given him a mute drug and either crippled him and thrown him out of Luojing, or killed him and destroyed his body.

It just so happened that what happened in Changping Marquis's Mansion yesterday, all forces are eyeing Changping Marquis's Mansion, he can't kill him, let alone kick him out directly...

On the contrary, he had to ensure the safety of this rascal's life. Otherwise, if someone with ulterior motives used this as an excuse, then the end of his Changping Marquisate would be basically over.

As his thoughts turned over and over, Su Qishun felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.

In the end, he could only sigh, "Now, I can only take things one step at a time."

"Doesn't Young Master Gu have that intention towards Wan'er? I think, Wan'er is no longer a virgin, so we might as well let Wan'er find a way to sleep with Young Master Gu again." Liang said as a matter of course.

Su Qishun resisted the urge to get angry and tried to keep his tone calm, "...Mother, guess why Wan'er didn't look for Young Master Gu yesterday but went straight to Cheng'er? Was it because she didn't want to?"

After Su Qishun said this, even Liang, who was slow-witted, finally reacted.

"You mean..."

Su Qishun lowered his head and said, "Our Changping Marquis' Mansion has been targeted. We have to be careful in everything we do. I will not communicate with them for the time being."

After a pause, he added, "I will find a way to deal with Young Master Gu. During this period, please take care of the affairs of the harem, mother."

Liang patted her chest and assured, "Don't worry, with me here, that bitch won't be able to do anything."

...

Gu Xiuyan returned to Duke Gu's Mansion in a daze.

Cong Ming and Cong Hui's two personal guards came forward with anxious looks on their faces.

"Master, you are finally back. You have made us worried all night."

After hearing Cong Ming's voice, Gu Xiuyan seemed to have just come back to his senses from his own trance world.

He raised his head and glanced at the servants who were working with their heads down.

There was low pressure in Duke Gu's Mansion all day today.

He couldn't help but frowning.

"You guys are so flustered, but what happened?"

Cong Ming jumped up and said, "Master, something happened in Changping Marquis' Mansion yesterday."

It was the first time that Gu Xiuyan saw Cong Ming being so reckless, and his heart inexplicably tightened.

He blurted out, "What happened?"

Cong Ming quickly told Gu Xiuyan the key information he had found out, "Yesterday, the Changping Marquis' Mansion was in chaos. The second son of the Yong'an Earl's Mansion was found to be a eunuch. The eldest son of the Yong'an Earl's Mansion and the Changping Marquis got into a fight over a woman, and the three-year-old legitimate son of the first wife was taken advantage of the chaos..."

He took a deep breath before he could say the following words, "She was sent to the palace during the chaos and castrated. When she was found in the mass grave, she was already dead. The wife of Marquis Changping has also been locked up because she is not mentally normal. And several girls in the Marquis Changping's mansion, including Miss Zhao, are said to be... said to be..."

"What did you say? Congming, when did you become so slow in speaking?"

Because he was in a bad mood, Gu Xiuyan's tone was very bad.

Cong Ming paused for a moment, and finally seemed to have made up his mind before speaking to Gu Xiuyan, "It is said that he was having fun with a group of beggars and was caught by many ladies who came to the banquet. The secret of the second son of the Yong'an Earl's Mansion was also discovered at that time."

"What?" As this matter concerned Zhao Qingwan, Gu Xiuyan even turned his head further, and the look he gave Cong Ming was as cold as ice. "Do you know who did this?"
