Female-to-male: I live on farming

Before leaving, Mingyue suddenly turned around and ordered: "Let Li Niang come and serve him. Let her do this last thing. Someone will fulfill her wish for her."

Li Niang is an old lady living in the building. She suddenly became pregnant and gave birth to a daughter a few years ago. She didn't want her daughter to follow her old path, so she tried her best to save money to redeem herself. However, who would have thought that misfortune would only pick on the unfortunate. Half a year ago, she accidentally contracted a viral disease.

Several people dressed as servants carried Pei Yun away, or rather threw him away, and stripped him of his clothes.

After hearing Mingyue's words, one of them turned around and walked towards the backyard of Zuifeng Tower.

……

"Your Highness, have you heard about the major event that happened in the capital today?"

The prince raised an eyebrow, motioning for him to continue.

The subordinate hurriedly reported the rumors he had heard today: "This morning, a farce occurred in Zuifenglou. It was very funny."

"Pei Yun, the second son of the Pei family, stayed at Zuifeng Tower last night. He suddenly fell into a coma this morning. The doctor we invited to check on him found that he had syphilis. Even the girl he stayed with was infected with the disease. Now the Pei family has lost all face."

After saying this, the man couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Pei Yun? Is he the prince consort chosen by my father for my sister?" Crown Prince Zhao Sheng frowned.

This was originally just a farce. It was nothing for the Pei family to become a laughing stock in the capital, but Pei Yun's identity was far-reaching and related to the royal family.

Especially since the Crown Prince had heard that the Ministry of Rites had almost decided on the eldest princess' wedding date, now that this incident had happened, he was afraid that it would be postponed indefinitely.

And I'm afraid this wedding will never take place.

After all, it concerns the royal family's reputation, especially His Majesty's. This matter is now widely spread, and it is estimated that my father will get the news soon.

Seeing the prince frowning and his face obviously gloomy, the subordinate continued tentatively, "I have heard about the actions of the second son of the Pei family before. It is said that he squeezed into the second-rate circle in the capital not long after being granted marriage. He ate, drank and had fun with those people every day. In recent months, he suddenly started going to places of entertainment. It is not surprising that such a thing happened."

At the end, his tone was somewhat uncertain.

After all, nothing can be taken lightly in special times.

The prince was well aware of this, especially as this incident happened too coincidentally, just before the Ministry of Rites selected the wedding date. The person behind it obviously wanted to ruin the marriage.

"You go and check it out. I suspect someone is behind this." The prince said coldly.

"Yes, Your Highness."

After pondering for a moment with one hand on his forehead, the prince decided to go to the palace, at least to let his mother test his father's attitude.

"Since you are here, let's have lunch together." The queen was obviously not surprised by his arrival and waved at him with a smile.

"Then I am sorry to bother you, mother."

Zhao Sheng would occasionally eat in the Queen's Palace, and the palace maids had gotten used to it. When the small kitchen prepared meals, they would specially prepare the Crown Prince's favorite dishes.

When all the food was served, the queen waved her hand to signal the serving maids to leave, and waited until only the two of them were left in the palace.

After the queen served Zhao Sheng a bowl of porridge, she said softly, "You came here today to ask about the Pei family, right?"

"Nothing can be hidden from the Queen Mother," Zhao Sheng replied with a smile, and got straight to the point: "In fact, the Pei family is really not worthy of the Queen Mother's eyes, but he involved the Imperial Sister, so this son feels uneasy."

"I know about this and immediately tested your father's attitude. He was furious when he heard about this and said that he was not fit for the job. I'm afraid he hates the Pei family." The Queen had rarely seen His Majesty so angry in recent years. She sighed and said, "Although your father is afraid of Jinyang, this is related to the royal family's reputation. I'm afraid Jinyang's marriage is over."

Moreover, he did not want to leave a reputation as being harsh on his children and ungrateful to others. If he married his daughter to such a man, wouldn't he be ridiculed by the whole capital?

Zhao Sheng cautiously asked, "Have you ever thought that this is just too coincidental?"

Pei Yun must be more than one person in the capital who was infected with the disease, but he caused a sensation in the city and everyone knew about it.

It was as if they were deliberately making a big deal out of this matter.

"It is indeed a coincidence, but the matter has been concluded. Even if we find out who is behind it, it is too late."

"Although the marriage has failed, someone should also bear the wrath of our father. The person behind this wants to get away with it unscathed. Isn't it too easy for him?" A dark light flashed in Zhao Sheng's eyes.

The queen was able to hold the position of the head of the harem, so she was naturally no ordinary person. She immediately reacted: "You suspect that Jinyang is behind this..."

"Besides this, I really can't think of anyone who can benefit from this?"

The queen was a little hesitant about this: "But Jinyang just wanted to cancel the marriage, isn't this too much..."

Zhao Sheng understood what she meant. After all, he was just a son-in-law and a tool to Jinyang. Even if they got married, it would not have much impact on Jinyang.

But if this matter was deduced by Jinyang, once any clues were revealed, she would be greeted with the wrath of her father.

After all, when the emperor is angry, corpses will float thousands of miles away.

It's really not worth it.

"Since Sheng'er has doubts, then go check it out. By the way, from now on, you don't have to let your men contact the Pei family anymore."

"I will obey my mother."

There was discussion here, but the atmosphere in the Xiao Mansion was not so good.

Ever since hearing the servants report the dirty stories that were spread in the streets, Lord Xiao became furious and smashed the tea table in the living room to pieces.

Originally, the Xiaohou Mansion had been very low-key in recent years, especially after Jinyang was granted the title of Liangzhou, they never went out without reason, and even moved around very rarely. Their attitude towards the affairs of the capital was to not get involved.

The Marquis' Mansion had no connection with the Pei Family, but the Emperor had made the decision to group the Pei Family and Jinyang together. Even if Marquis Xiao looked down on them, he had to accept it.

When Lord Xiao heard that the boy from the Pei family was frequenting brothels, he became furious and wanted to teach him a lesson, but was stopped by the people left behind by Jinyang, who told him not to bother with him.

Although he endured it for the time being, he looked down upon the boy even more.

In his opinion, it was harmless for a man to play with a woman. But it was not the same when it came to her granddaughter. Jinyang was very intelligent and beautiful, and the guy with the original surname Pei was not even qualified to carry Jinyang's shoes.

Now that the marriage has not yet been completed, he dares to make friends outside under the banner of Jinyang and has visited brothels many times.

He was bringing shame to Jinyang. If Lord Xiao had the same temper as he did when he was young, he would have definitely chopped off the boy's legs with one knife.
