Marrying a wife and a concubine together? Wouldn't it be better to divorce and become the queen

Upon hearing the news that Chi Ji had woken up, Fan Yueting immediately rushed over from her own yard.

These days, she has been suffering every moment.

She is the emperor's child, how could she be the illegitimate daughter of the queen mother and Chi Ji?

She asked her mother, and her mother told her not to believe the rumors, saying that it was a conspiracy by Feng Qingluan and Xie Jin to sow discord.

She thought carefully about the past and realized that among her four brothers and sisters, Chi Ji was indeed the best to her, and this time he risked his life to take her place.

She couldn't help but believe the rumors, and when Chi Ji woke up, she could no longer sit still and ran to find him.

Chi Ji was taking medicine. When he saw Fan Yueting rushing in, he guessed that she came for the rumor and said to the people in the room:

"You all get down."

Fan Yueting asked: "Master Chi, do you know about the rumors? Some people say that we are father and daughter."

Chi Ji denied it without blushing:

"It's completely false. How can a princess with such a precious body be the child of a lowly servant like me? Princess, please don't believe it."

Fan Yueting said, "If it's not true, why are people outside spreading rumors like that? Mother said this was Feng Qingluan's evil plan to make us lose our composure, but there are many ways she could do it, why did she choose this? Does she know something that makes her dare to do this?"

Chi Ji also thought of what she said. Facing Fan Yueting who was about to collapse, Chi Ji still denied comforting her:

"Princess, if you want to accomplish great things, how can you be easily provoked by a few words from others? I have always respected and admired the Queen Mother, and the same is true for the princess. I would never dare to have any improper thoughts. The princess has been greatly affected by this incident and needs to rest well."

Fan Yueting looked haggard, with a large dark spot under her eyelids. It was obvious that she hadn't gotten enough rest and was almost in a state of neurasthenia.

Chi Ji couldn't say anything more and had no further explanation.

Fan Yueting hesitated to speak, she really wanted to put her suspicions aside immediately.

The quickest way to achieve this is to let her and Chi Ji do a blood test to test their relationship.

But Fan Yueting didn't dare. What if it was proven that she was really Chi Ji's daughter, wouldn't her identity be exposed?

Fan Yueting suppressed this thought with reason and left the room in a daze.

Fan Yehua came over and met her. Seeing her like this, he felt a little distressed. He asked the maid to take good care of her and walked into the room.

Seeing him coming, Chi Ji got off the bed and saluted:

"Your Highness the Second Prince."

Fan Yehua said: "Lord Chi is weak, so there is no need to perform the ceremony."

Pool of cum sitting back on the bed:

"Your Highness should know what I want to say when I ask you to come here. I know about the rumor. This matter has a bad impact on the reputation of the Queen Mother and the Fourth Princess, and it is related to me. I have to pay attention to it."

Fan Yehua stared at him coldly:

"Answer me honestly. Are the rumors true?"

Chi Ji said: "No."

Fan Yehua believed it for the time being: "Then tell me, what do you want to do with me?"

Chi Ji said: "Feng Qingluan spread rumors, be careful not to escalate the situation and cause more serious consequences. I would like to ask Your Highness to do me a favor and go to the Marquis' Mansion to ask Feng Qingluan why she spread rumors and whether she has any clues."

Fan Yehua sneered:

"Master Chi, why do you think Feng Qingluan will tell this prince? And why should this prince do this?"

Chi Ji said calmly:

"Your Highness saved Feng Qingluan in Xingyuan before. If you ask her, Feng Qingluan might reveal something because of their relationship. No matter what she says, please come back and tell me."

This matter is fatal to both him and the Queen Mother. He must find out what Feng Qingluan knows before he dares to "spread rumors" so openly.

Only by knowing what she has can he fight back. After all, if someone asks him to do a blood test to prove her paternity, then nothing can be covered up!

Fan Yehua narrowed his eyes:

"Lord Chi denied it just now, but now he wants me to go find Feng Qingluan. Is Lord Chi feeling guilty?"

Chiji remained calm:

"I am of low status, Your Highness can doubt me, but should you also doubt the Queen Mother? My reputation is not important, but the Queen Mother's reputation and the princess's status are questioned. As a minister, I have to find a way to relieve the Queen Mother's worries.

We can't just let the rumors go. If Feng Qingluan continues to make a fuss about this, we won't have any way to fight back. Your Highness, do you want to see that result?"

Fan Yehua was moved by his words, and after thinking for a moment, he said:

"This prince can go to the Marquis' Mansion. Will Feng Qingluan tell you that Lord Chi should not hold out too much hope?"

Chi Ji said: "Thank you, Your Highness. I believe that Your Highness will find clues by appealing to their emotions and explaining things to them with reason."

Fan Yehua is not optimistic about this.

In the afternoon, he left the apricot garden to look for Feng Qingluan.

After a night's rest, Shen Wan woke up.

Feng Qingluan checked her recovery.

Thinking of the man she saw last night before she fainted who risked his life to help her suck out the snake venom, Shen Wan hesitated and asked:

"How is he, is he okay?"

Feng Qingluan raised her eyebrows: "Him? Who is the person Miss Shen is talking about?"

Shen Wan said: "The guard of Prince Rong who saved me last night."

Feng Qingluan smiled and said, "His name is Jiang Qu, Miss Shen can call him by his name."

Shen Wan's eyes moved, but she didn't say anything.

Feng Qingluan added: "He ingested some poison when the poisonous blood was sucked out, but he is in good health and is not seriously injured. The remaining poison has been cleared."

Shen Wan said: "Thank you for saving me. I will repay you when I have the chance. I will leave the mansion after my injuries are treated."

Feng Qingluan asked, "Does Miss Shen have any other place to live?"

Shen Wan said: "Let's find an inn to stay in."

"The inn in Ghost City?"

"Ah."

Feng Qingluan said, "Miss Shen, there is no need to do this. There are many rooms in the Marquis' Mansion, so it doesn't matter if you stay here one more time. No matter what, your father's death is related to me."

Shen Wan said: "If you insist on thinking this way, you saved my life, so we can make up for it."

Feng Qingluan realized that she was not easy to get close to, so she changed her words:

"The snake girl was poisoned by me. If she wants to survive, she will come to the Marquis' Mansion to ask me for the antidote. If Miss Shen leaves, we may miss the chance to catch her."

Speaking of the snake girl, Shen Wan's attitude really changed. She paused:

"Okay, I'll bother you Miss Feng for now. I won't leave until we catch the snake girl."

Feng Qingluan smiled and said, "Okay."

Jiang Qu was probably reluctant to let Miss Shen leave, so she helped him keep her. Whether he could win Miss Shen's heart in the future depended on whether the two of them were destined to be together.

Feng Qingluan rebandaged Shen Wan's wound. Qingxue came in with a serious expression and reported:

"Miss, the second prince of Huaibei wants to see you at the gate of the mansion."

As for these royal family members from Huaibei, everyone in the Marquis' Mansion knew that it was them who had kidnapped Feng Qingluan and taken to Xingyuan before. Now that someone had come to the door, everyone in the Marquis' Mansion was on high alert.

They didn't know that the Second Prince helped Feng Qingluan a lot in escaping from Xingyuan, so she didn't have to treat him as a powerful enemy.

But why did Fan Yehua come to her at this critical moment?

Feng Qingluan said: "Please ask him to come in. I will be there soon."
