Shock! The maid in the Marquis's mansion gave birth to the eldest son of the prince

"What?" Gu Qingfeng looked up at him absentmindedly, with a dazed look in his eyes.

When he saw the eldest daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion today, he fell in love at first sight. This woman was as beautiful as a fairy, gentle and charming, and was his ideal wife. He was just looking for an opportunity to meet her by chance and leave a good impression on her, but someone got there first, which made him quite angry.

I don't know why, but this arrogant Prince Shun actually showed his courtesy to Miss Xiao, calling her "cousin" all the time. It seemed like his eyes were glued to the young lady, which really made him uncomfortable.

"My dear brother, haha... have you fallen in love with that young lady? It's true that even a hero can be tempted by beauty." Li Zan smiled lewdly, and his eyes, which were overly drunk and lustful, narrowed into a line.

"Brother Li, please stop teasing me." Gu Qingfeng laughed at himself, "I see you are so happy to have won the beauty that you don't even care about your sister-in-law."

"Bah, don't talk about her. She's unlucky. She thinks she's a great contributor to the family by giving birth to a legitimate son. She wants to take care of everything and always goes back to her poor family home." Speaking of his wife, Li Zan was full of anger. "I say, my dear brother, marry a virtuous wife, not a jealous one."

"Brother Li, you... are husband and wife after all, you should always give me some face." Gu Qingfeng shook his head and said.

"Divorce her, so what if I marry another one! I have plenty of women." Li Zan said fiercely, "My new concubine is really extraordinary. She speaks and acts just as I want. Even my old scholar father is satisfied, let alone her...haha...she never hesitates on that...haha...my dear brother, you know."

That laugh was extremely vulgar. Gu Qingfeng was afraid that he would say more and hurriedly interrupted him and said, "Brother Li, do you have any big secrets to tell me?"

"Oh, I forgot about this. Please come closer." Li Zan waved and called.

Gu Qingfeng held back the smell of alcohol and moved closer, while Li Zan lowered his voice and spoke excitedly.

"This... Brother Li, where did you get this news?" Gu Qingfeng asked suspiciously. Even his father had never told him this news, so how did he know it?

"Don't worry about it. Just wait. In two days, an imperial censor will impeach him. His official position and the title of Marquis of Yong'an will be stripped away. Just look at how he will be transformed from an arrogant nobleman into a prisoner." Li Zan said sinisterly and poured the wine in the glass into his mouth in one gulp.

Gu Qingfeng was shocked and frightened for a moment, and quickly stood up and said, "Brother Li, you've drunk too much. I'll get you a bowl of sobering soup."

He raised his eyes and looked around. He regretted that his father was not present today, otherwise this information might be useful to him.

Prince's East Palace.

Pei Jin sat in front of the couch in the side hall, stroking the peach wood bracelet in his hand. He had once put that bracelet on Chan Yi, and it was still on his wrist.

"Prince Pei, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked you to wait here. He will bring the person you want to see." Eunuch Wang walked over quietly, bent down and whispered.

"Is it true?" There was a spark of fire in Pei Jin's eyes. If he were allowed to meet Chan Yi, he would seize the opportunity to tell her all his thoughts and regrets. Maybe she would forgive him?

"Your Highness the Crown Prince asks you to be patient." Eunuch Wang said with his head lowered.

Looking at the wife of Marquis Yong'an and her two daughters walking towards her from afar, Mrs. Lin calmly held her daughters' hands.

Chan Yi was feeling annoyed. The endless social engagements were really annoying, but since she was in this position, she had to play the role well.

"Madam, hello to the two young ladies of the Gu family." Chan Yi stood up and greeted them.

"The eldest lady is so gentle and kind, and has a good temper. You two should learn from Sister Xiao." The wife of Marquis Changning said to her two daughters with a smile.

"Sister Xiao, have you prepared the program?" Miss Gu Ningxia, the second daughter of the Gu family, was the legitimate daughter. She had met Chan Yi at the last Osmanthus Banquet. She naturally took Chan Yi's arm.

Chan Yi shook her head and said with a smile, "All the noble ladies are talented and versatile. I am not very knowledgeable, so it is a good opportunity for me to learn more and broaden my horizons. Sister Gu must have prepared some talents, right?"

Oh, so she is not presentable. What's the use of being beautiful? Gu Ningxia curled her lips secretly. Her mother said that her elder brother wanted to marry Miss Xiao. She didn't know what her mother was thinking. Although the Zhenguo Mansion was the mother's family of the queen, it had always been very low-key and never participated in government affairs. It would not be of much help to her brother's future career.

Moreover, this woman relied on her pretty face to flirt with other men. As soon as she showed up, she seduced Prince Shun, who had never liked women.

Look at her, she is pretending to be a saint. Which young lady has such a bulging chest like hers? She even puts on a light gauze shawl to draw men's attention to her chest. She is really better at seducing men than the girls in brothels.

"Sister Xiao, you are a real person and you don't show your true colors. Let your sisters see your talent." Gu Ningxia grabbed Chan Yi's hand without saying a word and shook it continuously, and her whole body was about to lean over.

Chan Yi tightly guarded the glass of wine in front of her. In the novels she had read before, those bad people would spill wine on others and then change their clothes to do bad things.

"The second Miss Gu is a cheerful young lady, unlike the eldest Miss Gu who is quiet." Madam Lin pulled her daughter over unnoticed and held her by her side, and said to Madam Hou in a gentle voice, "You are so lucky. Both daughters have their own merits. I think the eldest daughter is quiet and elegant, and must be well-educated. I like her very much. Qianqian, you should spend more time with the eldest Miss Gu and the others in the future."

Although there was nothing wrong with her words, it was obvious that she favored one over the other, which made Gu Ningxia frown secretly. She was at the age of marriage, and she thought that she was a legitimate daughter and obviously higher than Gu Yingchun. She didn't expect that the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo would raise the concubine's daughter to a higher level with just a few words. It was really infuriating.

"Okay, Yingchun, you and Ningxia should spend more time with Miss Xiao in the future. The young ladies should have a lot to talk about." The wife of Marquis Changning didn't want to say much. Just now, when she saw Prince Shun trying to please Miss Xiao, she knew that her son had no hope. However, she had to carry out the tasks assigned by her husband.

"Madam, the more I look at your daughter, the more I like her," said the wife of Marquis Changning with a chuckle. "It's our first meeting, I hope the young lady won't despise me."

She took off a pair of jade bracelets with excellent water content, pulled Chan Yi's hand and was about to put them on her wrist.

Mrs. Lin was about to politely refuse when she looked up and saw Jingyou appearing silently in front of her with a glass of wine.
