Su Yunling pulled Su Yueying out of Xiao Nanchuan's arms.

Without waiting for Xiao Nanchuan to say anything, she had already felt Su Yueying's pulse.

Su Yueying tried to break free, but failed.

She only wanted to suppress Miss Fu by pretending to be sick, but she forgot that the troublesome Su Yunling was also there.

Seeing Su Yunling frowning, Xiao Nanchuan wanted to ask her what was wrong, but he didn't want others to know that Su Yueying was pregnant.

After all, if this were to get out, it would be extremely detrimental to Su Yueying's reputation.

So he deliberately lowered his voice and said to Su Yunling: "If there is anything wrong, we can discuss it privately after entering the mansion."

Su Yunling laughed angrily at the way he was ordering her around as if she were a subordinate.

She would not indulge him, and after taking his pulse, she shouted loudly: "Aunt Su is pregnant!"

Her voice was not loud, but not small either, and everyone around her could hear it.

When the discussion came like a wave, Xiao Nanchuan had not had time to put away his embarrassment, and Su Yueying's heart was still heavy, but she heard Su Yunling say again:

"It's normal to feel dizzy after a miscarriage due to blood deficiency, but it's nothing serious. Just ask two maids to support you. Young Master Xiao should pay more attention to his wife! You stuffed such a big stinky rag into her mouth in public and forced her to swallow it? That's really too much."

Su Yunling finished speaking loudly, wiped his hands, turned around and left.

With a wave of his hand, without any credit or fame, Ren Chongtian's public opinion blew up the Rui Wang couple, Xiao Nanchuan, and Su Yueying.

"Pregnant? Miscarried again? That child is probably not Mr. Xiao's, right?"

"I heard that this former Saint Lady Su had many men around her, so it's not surprising that the child is not Young Master Xiao's."

"If she hadn't had such a bad reputation, why would His Majesty have decreed that she should be a concubine? Otherwise, as the daughter of the nation's destiny, she should at least be a co-wife!"

"This Rui Wang Mansion is really pitiful. For the sake of the fate of the Great Yin, they have to hold their noses and swallow this piece of meat from the pit..."

Su Yueying gritted her teeth so hard that the roots of her teeth were about to break. Her hands were clenched into fists in her sleeves, and her nails were about to pierce through her palms.

Su Yunling was just trying to embarrass her on purpose, and she would keep this in mind.

"What did she mean when she said you had a miscarriage?" Xiao Nanchuan's mind was full of Su Yunling's words.

Su Yueying naturally would not admit it. "The doctor said that my fetus was unstable, so Su Yunling must have misdiagnosed me. Maybe... she did it on purpose to sow discord between us." Su Yueying said resentfully.

When Xiao Nanchuan heard this, he looked at Su Yunling with eyes like a knife.

When the King and Queen of Rui heard the mocking voices around them, their faces turned darker than the bottom of a pot.

If it weren't for the fact that today was his son's wedding day and there were many officials and their wives present, according to Prince Rui's past temper, he would have to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys.

Princess Rui patted the back of Prince Rui's hand to comfort him. But when she turned her eyes to Su Yunling and Princess Su, the hatred in her eyes almost solidified.

Prince Su was keenly aware of the hostile looks from Prince Rui and his wife and Xiao Nanchuan, and he was quite critical of Su Yunling's reckless behavior.

After entering the hall of Prince Rui's Mansion, he was about to ask Xiao Jichen to remind Su Yunling not to be too presumptuous when an unexpected person came to him.

"Your Highness Prince Su." The person who came was Grand Tutor Fu.

Prince Su looked at Grand Tutor Fu who was bowing and was stunned for a moment before returning the greeting.

"Master Fu, congratulations..."

Grand Tutor Fu, who was one of the Three Dukes, was an old minister of the previous emperor, just like Xu Hantang.

He is highly respected, old and virtuous, and holds a pivotal position in the court.

Prince Su tried to win her over secretly several times, but was rejected every time with various reasons.

Now that he is married to Prince Rui, Prince Su no longer holds out any hope, but unexpectedly he takes the initiative to show goodwill today, which makes Prince Su "flattered".

Just as he was wondering, Grand Master Fu said sternly, "I would like to ask Prince Su to tell the Crown Prince's wife that I will visit her another day to thank her for speaking up for my granddaughter."

Prince Su was stunned. It turned out that it was because of this matter that Grand Tutor Fu took the initiative to find him.

The Fu family are all dignitaries who care about their reputation. In addition, this marriage was granted by the emperor himself, and they have to consider the complicated interpersonal relationships in the court. They cannot easily break off relations with the Rui Palace.

Just as they were enduring humiliation, Su Yunling's words and the people's condemnation gave them a chance to vent their emotions.

Prince Su was in mixed feelings, as he was able to get in touch with this important official of Emperor Jing Zhao thanks to his daughter-in-law.

But no matter what, since Grand Tutor Fu wanted to choose a day to visit him, he would definitely not miss the opportunity and would prepare the bed for him.

Before the banquet started, a group of noble ladies were invited to the courtyard to enjoy the flowers and drink tea.

These women all had warm smiles on their faces, but in reality they had their own thoughts, and were competing and showing off to each other, overtly or covertly.

Whose husband has been promoted, who has received a good reward, whose headgear is worth a lot of money, whose skirt is embroidered with unparalleled skill...

They are obviously more vain than anyone else, yet they still act noble.

Su Yunling has always disliked such occasions, but she had to accompany Princess Su, so she had no choice but to stay with this group of people and listen to their chatter.

She just stayed behind Princess Su quietly, eating melon seeds, walnuts, and candied fruits...

Princess Rui, as the hostess, was naturally also present, and her eyes were on Princess Su's face the entire time.

It's only been two months since we last met, but Princess Su looks like she's ten years younger.

"She gets more charming as she gets older." Princess Rui cursed in dissatisfaction.

Princess Rui was not the only one who noticed that Princess Su had become younger. Several other ladies of state also noticed it and came to Princess Su to curiously ask how she maintained her looks.

Princess Su, who was surrounded by people, accepted everyone who came and told them that in addition to maintaining one's appearance, it was more important to have a cheerful mood and not worry about trivial matters, so that one could stay young forever.

The noble ladies nodded in agreement and expressed their desire to emulate Princess Su.

Princess Rui, who was left out in the main seat, felt resentful and said something inappropriate:

"What does it matter if Sixth Sister-in-law takes good care of herself? She still can't hold Sixth Brother's heart. Who in the capital doesn't know that Sixth Brother favors Concubine Yan?"

Princess Rui's words were truly embarrassing. Princess Su's face immediately darkened, and the ladies who were complimenting her also looked embarrassed.

Some people want to smooth things over, but they don't know how to start, because after all, to outsiders, that is the fact.

Princess Rui saw that Princess Su was silent, so she curled her lips in satisfaction, and pretended to be generous and said, "Sixth sister-in-law, there is no need to be jealous of a concubine. As wives, we should regard our husbands as our heaven, and if our husbands like us, we should love them as well, and we must not give ourselves a reputation of being jealous."

As the air froze in awkwardness, Su Yunling finally swallowed the melon seeds in his mouth.

"I heard that last month, Prince Rui redeemed a prostitute from Chunxiang Tower. Her face was disfigured more than ten days ago. She went to my pharmacy to get medicine. The wound was horrible to look at. I'm afraid there is a vicious dog in Prince Rui's mansion?"

Su Yunling's words were undoubtedly like thunder from a clear sky, and the courtyard exploded instantly.

Princess Rui's face turned red, as if she had been slapped several times. She naturally knew that the "evil dog" was scolding her.

She originally wanted to make Princess Su feel uncomfortable, but in the end she was the one who felt even more uncomfortable.

Every time she met Su Yunling, she would be very angry, and this time she had to vent her anger no matter what.

Her face immediately darkened, and she displayed the dignity of a superior.

"Sixth sister-in-law, your daughter-in-law is too unruly! When she meets an elder on the road, she should quickly walk over and bow, and when the elder does not say anything, she should stand back and respectfully. Doesn't she know this? She has no respect for elders. Let me teach her a lesson today..."
