My bad father abandoned me, so I turned around and killed him

Lin Zhengfeng was looking forward to the birthday celebration, hoping that the gift he had carefully prepared would shine and win the emperor's favor.

Only then could he tell his experiences during this period in public and expose the crimes of Qu Manrong and her daughter to the public.

Doing so would not only gain enough sympathy, but the emperor might also be moved by his feelings and promote him.

It is naturally impossible for him to move up further since he has reached the position of Marquis, but the actual power in his hands can be changed.

For example, whether he will be transferred to one of the six ministries or the cabinet is also uncertain.

The reason why Lin Zhengfeng did not return home on New Year's Eve was that he was invited to his home by King Pingyang.

He didn't want to go at first.

Lin Zhengfeng knew from the beginning that Shen Yanran was the concubine of Prince Pingyang.

Otherwise, he would never have had a future with Shen Yanran.

He knew very well that the probability of Prince Pingyang inviting him was very small, and he could not think of anyone else except Shen Yanran.

But he had nowhere else to turn, and in the end his future triumphed over everything.

I have no idea what gift to prepare for His Majesty.

That stupid woman Qu Manrong won't help him, and judging by the stinginess of the old lady, she probably won't help him either.

Right now, he has no choice except Shen Yanran.

He had no choice but to follow the people from Prince Pingyang's Palace to meet Shen Yanran and see what this slut was up to.

It just so happened that he could find a way to get something from that woman while she still had feelings for him.

The Pingyang Palace is wealthy and powerful, and any little money that slips through his fingers would be enough for him to prepare a gift for the emperor.

It was not until he entered the Prince of Pingyang's Palace that Lin Zhengfeng realized how stupid he was!

The Prince of Pingyang's Palace was extremely luxurious. I didn't expect that even the stone lions at the door were inlaid with gold.

After entering the palace, Lin Zhengfeng was once again amazed. If he was right, the floor tiles should be made of jade, right?

The level of extravagance is beyond description.

At that moment, Lin Zhengfeng suddenly changed his mind.

Now that the Pingyang Palace has taken Shen Yanran back, it means that they have acknowledged her as their daughter.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to bring her into the house.

If he and Shen Yanran were to stay together forever, wouldn't he be able to get a share of the palace's assets?

Not to mention the matter of the royal family property, with the help of Prince Pingyang, why would he have difficulty taking a single step in the court?

It sounds like he is a marquis, but in reality he has no real power at all.

Countless people in the capital laughed at him, saying that he got the title of marquis by relying on his brother's death, and was actually just a useless person.

This is a mockery of Lin Zhengfeng's uselessness!

So he had to climb up and let everyone see that he, Lin Zhengfeng, could stand very high on his own.

The fact was exactly as he expected. It was Shen Yanran who sent someone to find him.

After not seeing each other for a while, the two met again, and Lin Zhengfeng felt as if they were in a different world.

He couldn't even associate the former Shen Yanran with the dazzling woman in front of him, who was covered in jewels.

"Why? Lord, don't you recognize me?"

Shen Yanran gently waved a round fan with her slender fingers, her nails painted bright red, and she leaned lazily on the chaise longue.

Silver charcoal was burning in the room, with the smell of elegant incense, and four maids were serving on both sides.

Lin Zhengfeng inexplicably developed a sense of inferiority.

He had never seen Shen Yanran like this before. She was completely different from the woman who used to be humble and submissive in front of him.

Lin Zhengfeng suddenly felt extremely hot in his heart, he couldn't refuse Shen Yanran like this.

Even if she had betrayed him, he could forgive her.

Is there any man in this world who can refuse a woman who can bring him great help?

Anyway, Lin Zhengfeng can't do it.

The reason why he couldn't refuse Qu Manrong before was not because she could bring him enough wealth?

Now that the woman is unwilling to pay any more money, the meaning of her existence becomes dispensable.

While she is alive, she is just occupying the position of his wife.

Now, Shen Yanran has been taken back to the palace. Looking at her current situation, we can see that she is very favored in the palace.

Only by holding such a woman in your hands can you use her at all times.

Lin Zhengfeng was very sure that Shen Yanran still had feelings for him.

that's enough.

But he didn't show it.

"What do you want from me? Do you want to humiliate me? If nothing else, I'm leaving. I don't have time to waste with you here!"

After saying this, he turned around and pretended to leave.

As expected, Shen Yanran no longer looked as calm as before, and she chased after him barefoot.

She hugged Lin Zhengfeng's waist tightly, and her voice was filled with tears.

"Brother Feng, please don't leave! Please listen to my explanation, okay? Please give me a chance to explain, okay?"

Lin Zhengfeng pretended to struggle.

Shen Yanran hugged him tighter.

She found out that she was wrong, so wrong.

The mistake was thinking that I was sober and rational enough not to love a man more than myself.

But after leaving, she realized that she had already loved Lin Zhengfeng deeply.

"Explain? Explain to me? I want to see what explanation you can give me."

"Brother Feng, listen to me, it's not like that! I was really wronged!

The person I love from beginning to end is only you, and you are the only man I have from beginning to end.

I can swear! If I tell even a single lie, I will be struck by lightning and die without a burial place!"

"Okay, even if this is true, then tell me why Lin Ruihao looks so much like that adulterer?"

Lin Zhengfeng wanted to see what Shen Yanran could come up with.

They looked almost like two peas in a pod. Anyone with eyes could see that they were father and son.

Lin Ruihao is a bastard!

Lin Zhengfeng didn't expect that Shen Yanran would just kneel down on the ground with a plop.

"I'm sorry, Brother Feng, I lied to you. Hao'er is indeed Wanqiushan's child, but he is not my illegitimate child.

Haoer is actually the child I adopted from the Wan family.

Our child was accidentally miscarried, and I was afraid that you would blame me for the child.

I know you want a son, so I...I thought about adopting a boy.

I really didn't mean to hide it from you. I have wanted to explain it to you countless times, but I didn't know where to start.

You can hit me and scold me, but please, don't leave me!

We still have Rou'er. Rou'er is so well-behaved and lovely, and she has entered the palace now.

Brother Feng, let’s live a good life together from now on, okay?

I know you want to climb up the ladder, don't worry, I will ask my father to help you, you will definitely be able to realize your dream."

Lin Zhengfeng thought of many possibilities, but he never thought that Lin Ruihao was adopted.

What I didn’t expect was that he actually raised someone else’s son for so many years!
