Marquis Suning nodded and said:

"I will listen to you, Princess. Now, I will trouble you."

"It's my job to cure illnesses and save lives. You're welcome."

……

Marquis Suining returned to the mansion with a gloomy face.

Madam Lu looked at her husband's bad face and asked cautiously:

"Husband, what happened?"

"Some time ago, Ziqing and I were out on errands. What were you doing?"

Mrs. Lu thought for a moment and said:

“Although you didn’t tell me what mission the emperor assigned you, I know that this trip for you and Ziqing is very dangerous.

I was so worried at home that I went to the temple to pray for you.

During the months you were away, I stayed in the temple."

"You're just going to leave like that? Your daughter-in-law is still pregnant? Aren't you worried?"

"She has maids and servants serving her, what could possibly happen?

Besides, we went to Baiyun Temple outside the city, which was very close. After receiving the news from our hearts, we came back immediately.

Husband, is there anything wrong with this?"

"It was because you were not at home that something went wrong."

Mrs. Lu had no idea what had happened. When she came back, her daughter-in-law was fine and had even given her a big fat grandson.

Isn't this good? What happened?

Madam Lu asked doubtfully:

"Husband, what happened?"

Marquis Suning said:

"You'll find out soon."

Marquis Suning didn't say much, but said to the servant beside him:

"Go and call the eldest young master and the eldest young lady over."

"Yes."

The meals at the Suining Marquis's mansion were different from those at Song Yaoyao's mansion, where everyone gathered together for every meal.

In the Suining Marquis' Mansion, everyone eats in their own courtyards, and only during festivals do they gather together.

Early in the morning, Lu Ziqing and Wang Youxin had just finished breakfast when they heard their father asking them to go over.

Looking at the time, Lu Ziqing said doubtfully:

"Father should have just returned from court at this hour. What did he ask us to do?"

"do not know."

Although Wang Youxin said she didn't know, she always had a bad feeling.

The two came to Mrs. Lu's yard.

As soon as Lu Ziqing and Wang Youxin stepped in here, they felt something was wrong.

After they saluted, Lu Ziqing asked cautiously:

"Father, are you back from court?"

"Ah."

"Have you had breakfast?"

"not yet.

This morning, I learned something that made me so angry I couldn’t even eat.”

"Father, what happened?"

Marquis Suning turned his gaze towards Wang Youxin and said:

"You should ask your wife Wang Youxin what she did."

Madam Lu and Lu Ziqing both looked at Wang Youxin.

When Wang Youxin heard this, his heart skipped a beat. Would the things he had done be discovered?

However, Wang Youxin remained calm, forced a smile, and asked in a puzzled manner:

"Father, what did I do?"

"Wang Youxin, this is the first time I know you're so good at pretending."

"Father-in-law, I haven't left the house since I gave birth. I really haven't done anything."

“You have never left the house, but you can order your men to do it.

Wang Youxin, tell me, is Hong'er the bloodline of our Suning Marquisate? "

After hearing this, Wang Youxin's face turned pale instantly. She knew that her father-in-law knew everything.

How did he know?

When she asked her wet nurse to do that, her father-in-law had not returned to Beijing at all. He probably just heard some rumors but had no evidence.

Now that it has come to this, I can only stubbornly refuse to admit it.

Wang Youxin's face turned pale instantly, which was clearly seen by Madam Lu and Lu Ziqing.

Mrs. Lu's face also darkened.

Could it be that Lu Zhihong wasn't the bloodline of their Marquisate? Was he the son of Wang Youxin and someone else?

Both Mrs. Lu and Lu Ziqing thought so.

Lu Ziqing didn't expect Wang Youxin to cheat on him like this. He clenched his fists in anger, then stepped forward, slapped him twice, and cursed:

"Wang Youxin, you bitch, how dare you cheat on me."

Wang Youxin knew that her husband had misunderstood, so she quickly got up, hugged his legs and said:

"Husband, I don't, you are the only one in my heart.

My husband, you have to believe me."

Now no matter what Wang Youxin said, Lu Ziqing didn't believe her, and he kicked her to the ground.

Lu Ziqing looked at the Marquis of Suning and said:

"Father, I want to divorce this fickle woman."

When Suning Hou saw this, he said:

"Ziqing, things are not what you think. Wang Youxin did not cheat on me, but she did do something.

That child is definitely not of our Marquis's bloodline!"

Lu Ziqing became even more puzzled and asked:

"Father, what is going on?"

"The thing is like this..."

Next, Marquis Suining recounted the whole story.

After the Marquis of Suning finished his story, Madam Lu stepped forward and slapped Wang Youxin twice, cursing:

"You bitch, how dare you?

Do you want to confuse the bloodline and let a child of unknown origin inherit the title of our marquisate?

How dare you? Who gave you the courage?

If it weren't for Princess Jiahe, we would have been deceived by you, a bitch."

Mrs. Lu was so angry that she took action herself.

If she didn't do it herself, Mrs. Lu was afraid that she would get hurt from being angry.

She really didn't expect that Wang Youxin would do such a thing when she went to pray.

At this point, Wang Youxin still refused to admit it and said:

"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, husband, I really don't have any."

Lu Ziqing looked at Wang Youxin with disgust and said:

"There is nothing wrong with what Princess Jiahe said."

"She's not a saint, so how can she be sure she won't make mistakes?"

Marquis Suning then remembered that Wang Youxin could not hear Song Yaoyao's inner thoughts, and they had discovered this before.

Because of the emperor's order, they did not tell Wang Youxin about Song Yaoyao's feelings.

Marquis Suning closed his eyes and said:

“You still refuse to admit it now, the Wang family really gave birth to a good daughter!

Since you don't admit it, I will convince you today.

Come, go and capture Wang Youxin's wet nurse and her family and bring them here."

"Yes."

Wang Youxin's face became even uglier. He hoped that the wet nurse would deny it!

Soon, the wet nurse and her family were captured.

The wet nurse was terrified, and became even more frightened when she saw Wang Youxin also kneeling on the ground.

Marquis Suning said directly:

"Su, you are Wang Youxin's wet nurse. I believe you know a lot about her."

"Yes, sir."

"Then, I want to ask you some questions, and I hope you will answer truthfully.

If you dare to lie, you know the consequences."

When Marquis Suining said this, he glanced at the wet nurse's family.

Just with one glance, the wet nurse understood what Marquis Suining meant.

If she dared to lie, her family would probably...
