Qiu Ying panicked when she saw Madam Su suddenly change her attitude.

"Mom, Dad, didn't you say Zhang Xian was pretty good before? You also said that if I could marry Zhang Xian, I wouldn't have to worry about my mother-in-law's face, and I wouldn't have to worry about managing the household. I just needed to live happily."

"Ying'er, Zhang Xian is not a good man. You should forget everything your mother said before."

Seeing her daughter in pain, Mrs. Su wished she could cut Zhang Xian into pieces.

"mother."

Qiu Ying still refused to give in and begged Madam Su and Lord Qiu to change their minds.

Mrs. Su didn't want to make her daughter sad, so she had no choice but to tell the truth.

"Ying'er, Zhang Xian was married in Xingnan Prefecture a long time ago. He is not your ideal man. In order to marry you, he secretly sent a letter of divorce back to his first wife."

"Now that his wife has filed a complaint with Dengwen Drum Court, Zhang Xian's career is probably over. Don't mention him again in the future."

Mrs. Su was a smart woman and she saw Zhang Xian very clearly. But Qiu Ying was a little bit obsessed with love and didn't take Zhang Xian's marriage seriously at all.

"Since Zhang Xian has divorced his wife, it's fine for him to marry me. Mom, I don't care. I just like Zhang Xian, and I don't care about his past."

Hearing her precious daughter say this, Mrs. Su felt her temples bulging.

Neither they are stupid, so how could they give birth to Qiu Ying, a stupid girl?

"Ying'er, Zhang Xian has always been attracted by your family background, not you as a person. You better wake up."

Qiu Ying's appearance is not even ordinary. She has a square face like Lord Qiu. For some reason, she has developed a face full of red pimples in recent years. She has taken countless medicines and seen countless doctors, but to no avail.

She was not pretty and had a face full of red pimples, so she had no hope of marrying into a wealthy family. Mrs. Su only hoped that she could find a good husband and live a peaceful and happy life.

She didn't expect that Zhang Xian, whom she had high hopes for, would cause so much trouble again. Mrs. Su couldn't help feeling sad when she looked at Qiu Ying. How could her good daughter have such a bad marriage?

"Mom, how can you say that about me? Zhang Xian is not such a superficial person. He said he likes my literary talent."

Qiu Ying, who already had a bit of low self-esteem, burst into tears instantly.

"That was all a lie. Come on, take the girl back to your own courtyard."

For Qiuying's future happiness, Mrs. Su had to harden her heart.

She instructed the housekeeper not to let Zhang Xian into the Qiu Mansion to see Qiu Ying without her consent. If she found out that anyone was helping Zhang Xian, she would beat that person to death immediately without showing any mercy.

As for Gu Wan'er, she got off the carriage after sitting in it for a quarter of an hour.

She did not change her clothes, and her white dress was stained with dust and blood, making her look a little disheveled.

Ye Jintang also followed Gu Wan'er up the steps to Dengwen Drum Court. She didn't do anything else today but just wanted to give Gu Wan'er a fair shake.

Ye Jintang, dressed in gorgeous clothes, stood on a high place and immediately attracted many inquiring eyes. However, she kept her back to the onlookers, so her face could not be seen clearly.

Many people in the crowd were discussing who was the Gu who was beating the drum to file a complaint. Why did he come to file a complaint and get beaten for nothing when he had such a powerful figure in his family?

Suddenly there was a commotion not far away, and a carriage slowly squeezed through the crowd.

Hearing the noise, Ye Jintang turned around and looked in the direction of the sound.

The common people, who had always been curious about her identity, were all stunned the moment they saw her appearance.

"Who is this lady in gorgeous clothes? She looks like a fairy from a painting."

"It seems that you are not well-informed about the news in the capital. You don't even know Miss Ye Liu."

Someone who had met Ye Jintang before would immediately talk about Ye Jintang's past with great pride.

"Miss Ye Liu has only been in the capital for a few months, and she has already been crowned the most beautiful woman. Moreover, Miss Ye Liu is not only beautiful, but also extremely capable."

"Miss Ye Liu, who became the Princess of Qin, held a riverside banquet a while ago. You must have heard about it."

When the Linjiang Banquet was mentioned, everyone instantly realized that the person standing at the entrance of Dengwen Drum Courtyard was the Princess of Qin.

At the same time, almost everyone was wondering, my goodness, has Zhang Xian lost his mind? He even dared to divorce the cousin of the Princess of Qin. Has he become confused because of studying too much?

Although Madam Gu's appearance was not as good as that of the Princess of Qin, she was still a beauty. I really didn't know what Zhang Xian disliked about her.

There were a lot of people gathered at the gate of Dengwen Drum Court, and Zhang Xian was brought over by several policemen with great difficulty.

Confused, he got off the carriage and looked up, just in time to see Gu Wan'er being supported by someone.

He frowned and instantly understood why the people from Dengwen Drum Court wanted to arrest him. It turned out that the bitch Gu Wan'er came to beat the Dengwen Drum.

Just wait and see, he will ruin her reputation.

"Gu Wan'er, you still have the nerve to sue me. You were so shameless that you had an affair with a street thug while I was in Beijing for the exam. I only gave you a divorce letter to let you leave in a decent manner, but you turned the tables and sued me. You are such a vicious woman."

As soon as they met, Zhang Xian took the initiative to accuse Gu Wan'er of being an unfaithful wife.

He thought he could scare Gu Wan'er, but he didn't know that Ye Jintang had already told Gu Wan'er that Zhang Xian would throw dirty water on her, and asked her to restrain herself temporarily, not to be led astray by Zhang Xian, and not to prove herself. There were witnesses and evidence for everything, and it would not be so easy for Zhang Xian to throw dirty water on her.

"Zhang Xian, you don't need to be so arrogant here. The Dali Temple Secretary Ying is here today. It is up to Ying to decide what is right and what is wrong. It's not whoever speaks the loudest that is right."

Ye Jintang's voice was cold and clear, and very pleasant to the ear.

"I don't know what this lady's name is."

Zhang Xian pretended to salute Ye Jintang. He was not a fool. When he saw Ye Jintang's gorgeous clothes, he knew that she was of high status.

But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't figure out if there were any wealthy families among Gu Wan'er's relatives.

The Gu family was just a declining merchant family in Xingnan City, but looking at the lady's demeanor, she didn't seem to be from a merchant family.

"You little villain, you don't even recognize the Queen of Qin."

Luzhu was a quick-talker. When she saw Zhang Xian's sanctimonious appearance, he started throwing dirty water on Gu Wan'er as soon as they met. She wished she could go up to him and scratch his face.

Zhang Xian never expected that the lady in front of him was actually the Princess of Qin. He also never thought that Gu Wan'er actually knew the Princess of Qin, and that she even wanted to stand up for Gu Wan'er.

For a moment, Zhang Xian felt mixed emotions and didn't know what to say.

He felt regretful in his heart. Gu Wan'er was a fool. Why didn't she tell him earlier that she and Princess Qin knew each other, such a big thing? If she had known it earlier, he wouldn't have to work so hard to please that ugly girl Qiu Ying.

At the same time, he was also extremely worried. He and Gu Wan'er were already at war to the death. If Princess Qin backed him up, he was afraid he would not be able to escape unscathed.

In just a few breaths, Zhang Xian's mind was full of thoughts, but he couldn't think of any way to deal with it.
