I became an official of the imperial court by eating melons when I was still a baby

Upon hearing this, Hua Zhuo gripped the hem of her skirt even tighter, and her lower lip, which was bitten so tightly, seemed to bleed slightly from the force she used.

Hua Ping, who had been paying attention to his family, noticed this and immediately reached out to gently touch Hua Zhuo's head, saying softly, "Zhuo'er, no matter who you are, you are always my family."

Hua Rong and Ye heard the voice and turned to look at the two of them, feeling mixed emotions.

Yes, they have been together for more than ten years. Even if Zhuo'er is not their biological daughter, the feelings they have had for more than ten years cannot be fake. This is the child they raised with their own hands.

No matter she is a younger sister or any other identity, she is always their relative.

Ye held Hua Zhuo's hand again, and Hua Rong nodded to Hua Zhuo in a soothing manner.

Hua Zhuo seemed to feel surrounded by the love of his family again, and he no longer felt so sad inside.

Just as the four members of the Hua family were communicating silently, the system spoke again.

[Host, yes, this man is Hua Zhuo's biological father, and host, you will never guess who he is! ]

Qin Yue was very surprised why the system asked this question: [Sister, could it be that he has some special identity? ]

Everyone began to speculate in their hearts, could it be some powerful character?

System: [That man is the current Ruyang Marquis Lu Bochuan! ! ]

Everyone was shocked!

what?

It was Lu Bochuan?

But hasn’t Lu Bochuan already…

How could it be!

And these two families are discussing marriage now!

The two parties negotiating the marriage are Hua Zhuo and Lu Bochuan's eldest son! !

WTF! So that’s what I mean!

These two should be brother and sister!

What the hell is this? !

The Hua family also looked incredulous!

How could it happen to be the Marquis of Ruyang? !

Hua Zhuo couldn't help shaking her head. She really couldn't believe that her biological father was the Marquis of Ruyang, and the man she was planning to marry was most likely her half-brother! !

How should she face this?!

She was really going crazy, she wanted to escape from here immediately, wanted to scream, wanted to cry loudly!!

Seeing this, the other three members of the Hua family hurried to comfort Hua Zhuo.

Some patted his head, some whispered words of comfort, and some even said directly, "At worst, we can just find a son-in-law in the future!"

Although they were also extremely shocked, the more important thing now was to hear what happened next. What if the two were not siblings...

Besides, if the marriage cannot be discussed, then the Hua family can just find someone to marry into the family!

Hua Zhuo must not be allowed to suffer any injustice!!

Qin Yue didn't know Marquis Ruyang, so she naturally didn't feel as shocked as everyone else. She was more concerned about how these two people could sleep together.

[Sister, is this Ruyang Hou very powerful? Please tell me what happened between them and how they gave birth to Miss Hua Zhuo! ! ]

Everyone came back to their senses at once.

Yes, logically speaking, both of them are polite people, how could such a thing happen...

System: [Both the Ruyang Marquis Mansion and the Pingyang Marquis Mansion are second-rate marquis mansions in the capital, but the Ruyang Marquis Mansion is not as wealthy as the Pingyang Marquis Mansion.]

[So the children of the Ruyang Marquis's family are much more ambitious than those of the Pingyang Marquis's family. After all, they have no family property to rely on, so they have to earn it themselves.]

[Many of the Ruyang Marquis’s sons are officials. We can see one of them every day when we go to court. He is the Ruyang Marquis’s son, Lu Wenzhou.]

Qin Yue thought about it and thought, very good, I have never eaten the melon of this person, so I don’t know which one it is, forget it, it doesn’t matter, what’s important is his father.

[Oh, sister, don't worry about Lu Wenzhou, he is not important, what is important is his father, Marquis Ruyang, and Old Madam Hua! ! ]

[Hey, by the way, is there anyone coming to the Ruyang Marquis's Mansion this year? ]

Everyone was suddenly startled. Oh, right, is anyone from Ruyang Marquis’s Mansion coming to the banquet?

Everyone looked around hurriedly, and after a look, they couldn't help but frowned.

Huh? Why didn't I see it?

Almost all the dignitaries in the capital came to this banquet, so why didn’t anyone come from the Ruyang Marquis’ Mansion?

Just when everyone was puzzled, the system gave the answer.

[No one came to the Ruyang Marquis's residence. The Ruyang Marquis was seriously ill today, and none of the Lu family members went out.]

[Besides, Lu Wenzhou is a very important character! ]

Everyone was shocked. Is Marquis Ruyang seriously ill again?

Originally, Marquis Ruyang had been in poor health since childhood. He was suddenly injured fourteen years ago and has been lying in bed ever since, taking medicine with him all day long.

Although he was in poor health, he still managed to handle all the affairs in the mansion despite his frail body.

There was no other way. There was no mistress in the family and his son was still young, so he had to take over the affairs of the inner and outer courtyards.

It was not until a few years ago that the prince of Ruyang Marquis's Mansion was finally able to take charge, and Marquis Ruyang finally relieved himself of his important responsibility.

Although Marquis Ruyang holds the title of Marquis, in fact, in recent years, the important matters in the Marquis' Mansion have been handled by the Crown Prince, who is also a very filial child.

I wonder how he would feel if he knew that the wife he was about to marry was his own sister.

The tense string in people's hearts suddenly broke, and they felt as if they had lost all their energy.

After that, the Marquis of Ruyang would become seriously ill from time to time, which was pitiful...

Qin Yue: [Ah? This Ruyang Marquis is seriously ill? Maybe it's because he's old... Is there anything important about Lu Wenzhou? ]

Everyone: Of course Lu Wenzhou is important. If this news hadn’t been exposed today, the two siblings would have almost gotten married. If they were discovered later, the result would definitely be even more embarrassing and difficult to accept!

System: [Marquis Ruyang is not very old, just a few years older than Marquis Pingyang. It’s just that he has been weak since birth, so he goes to the temple to recuperate from time to time.]

[As for Lu Wenzhou, that’s because he’s Hua Zhuo’s current marriage proposal partner! ! They’re almost ready to go through the engagement process! ]

Qin Yue was shocked: [Oh my god! These two are siblings! But they definitely don’t know it now.]

[What should we do? If the two of them really get married, it would be incest, and the child born would most likely have problems! ! Oh my! ! ]

Everyone: Xiao Fuguan, don’t worry, we already know everything we need to know except for the Ruyang Marquis Mansion! !

System: [Oh! Yes, but because Marquis Ruyang doesn’t know that Hua Zhuo is his daughter, otherwise he would definitely not agree to this marriage! ]

Qin Yue: [So what happened in the temple at that time? ]

Everyone pricked up their ears when they heard this.

System: [At that time, the wife of the Marquis of Ruyang had just passed away due to illness. The Marquis of Ruyang was so sad that his health suddenly deteriorated. So a month after the funeral, he went to Pu'an Temple to recuperate, and temporarily handed over the household affairs to the housekeeper.]

[Although the Ruyang Marquis's Mansion is not considered a first-rate mansion in the capital, it is still a mansion after all, and is still very attractive to many women. Moreover, the Ruyang Marquis is very infatuated with his wife, which also makes many women very moved.]

[Among these women, there is a very bold one who wants to make things right! ]

Qin Yue asked hurriedly: [Who is it? Who is it? ]
