Nangong Su didn't know how to describe his current mood. He wanted to get angry, but everyone in this room, even a servant, was not someone he could get angry with.

After rushing into the house, he regretted it.

Are you here to seek humiliation?

Now that he was here, he rushed all the way to Xie Qingrou's inner room.

Qingfeng Qingqiu was originally serving here, and when they saw the Marquis coming, they hurried over to stop him.

They have been serving here for many years, so they naturally know that the lady does not want the Marquis to enter the inner room.

At least, when they were with the Marquis's wife, the Marquis never came in once.

"My Lord, please stop and leave. My Lady is resting."

However, they did not dare to take action, as there was no way they could stop the shameless marquis from rushing in.

Xie Qingrou, who was leaning on the bed, was also stunned when she saw the man rushing in, and then shouted:

"Qingqiu, you guys go down."

In a rage, he rushed to the bedside of the Marquis' wife. Nangong Su looked at the Marquis' wife in front of him. Her hair was scattered on the pillow, her face was haggard and pale, and her eyes were obviously red and swollen from crying.

He had never seen Mrs. Xie like this.

Because whenever Mrs. Xie appeared in front of him, she always had her hair combed neatly and meticulously.

And his face was always calm.

I have only seen her lose her composure twice. Once was when she yelled at me in my son's new house that day, and once was right in front of me.

Even though she knew that Yu'er had been poisoned by an incurable poison, she kept her back straight and did not let the tears flow even though her eyes were filled with tears.

Nangong Su was a little surprised. How could he remember her expression so clearly every time?

Nangong Su stood in front of Xie Qingrou, but didn't know what to say.

He stared blankly at Madam Xie, but Madam Xie gently turned her head to look at the bed, not wanting to look at him at all:

"Why are you here, Lord? Are you here to remind me that my son is disabled?"

The Marquis's face froze:

"Did I say that? How are you...? Do you want to see a doctor?"

"Don't worry about it, sir. Please go back."

The Marquis was a little annoyed. I cared about you so much, but you didn't want it.

Looking up at the house again, I still have vague memories of it.

When was the last time he had been in this room? He couldn't remember.

He looked around hastily, not knowing whether he should leave or stay and sit for a while.

Where to sit?

Sit on the edge of the bed?

Nangong Su was a little confused. He was really confused these two days. Because the Hou Furen of these two days made him feel unfamiliar.

What happened at home in the past two days made him not know what went wrong.

Nangong Yu and the others followed in. Because the Marquis was in the Marquis's wife's inner room, no matter if it was the maids or anyone else, it was not appropriate to go in and disturb him.

They all stayed in the outer room waiting. Gu Ruoxi looked inside worriedly and asked directly:

"Mom is not feeling well. Is the Marquis bullying us again? Prince, should we go in and help mom?"

Gu Ruoxi did not stop talking, and Nangong Su and Xie Qingrou inside heard it.

Nangong Su's face turned red with anger, but Xie Qingrou smiled softly. This daughter-in-law is not loved in vain!

Nangong Yu twitched his lips, but still said softly:

"No, he won't hurt Mom."

Nangong Su's anger subsided a little, but then he heard Nangong Yu say in a cold tone:

"Because he doesn't dare!"

Nangong Su: ...I shouldn't have rushed in. I just asked for humiliation!

Nangong Su was so angry that he turned around and came out again, looking at the people queuing at the door of Xie Qingrou's inner room. It seemed that everyone thought he was here to hurt Xie Qingrou.

It seemed that everyone wanted to go in and protect Xie Qingrou.

Especially Gu Ruoxi, who was standing first and leaning on the door frame to watch, rushed in immediately after seeing him come out:

"Mom, are you okay?"

Nangong Su: ...

Turn around and look at the people in this room.

Nanny Yang ignored his gaze and went straight into the Marquis's inner chamber. Qingqiu and Qingfeng naturally followed her in.

Suddenly, Qingyi, Moyi, Nangong Yu and Nangong Su were the only ones left in the outer room.

Looking at his son sitting on the chair, Nangong Su suppressed his anger.

He glanced at Nangong Yu:

"Yuer, your legs are now..."

Nangong Yu replied coldly:

"I don't have any broken bones, but Doctor Yang said that my poison has been temporarily suppressed. Why? Has the Marquis made a choice?"

Nangong Su looked at his son who couldn't communicate at all, and said with suppressed anger:

"Yu'er, that's not what Dad meant."

"I don't want to guess what the Marquis means. I just came back from the palace, and the emperor also asked about my leg. I told the emperor that if I can't cure it, I won't be the prince anymore."

The Marquis frowned.

Nangong Yu seemed to be talking about someone else:

"Your Majesty, please check the imperial decree issued by the grandfather emperor to confer the title of Marquis of Changyong, which is hereditary for three generations. So, from great-grandfather to grandfather to you, the title of the Marquisate is already over."

Lord Changyong was shocked, as he seemed to have never heard of this.

It was his grandfather who was awarded the title of marquis for his military achievements, but he was not even born at that time. How would he know what the imperial edict meant?

His father was also a man who had made military achievements. As for him, the emperor never said that he would demote his title because his family had been making achievements for generations.

Of course, although his contribution was small, it was because there was no war later.

He always believed that if there was another war, as the Marquis of Changyong Marquisate, he would not hold back.

According to the imperial system of hereditary titles, if the imperial edict stated that the title would only be passed down for three generations, then after the third generation, the title would no longer be passed down.

Now I hear from my son that the Emperor checked the imperial edict from that year and found that the throne would only be passed down to three generations. Does that mean the Marquisate is doomed?

"No. When I asked to make you the crown prince, the late emperor didn't say anything."

Nangong Su thought about how when he requested to be named the crown prince, the late emperor only read the memorial and then agreed.

If the title was not hereditary, his request would not have been approved at all.

Nangong Yu smiled coldly:

"Yes, do you still remember when you asked to be crowned as the prince?"

Nangong Su paused, his expression looking a little unhappy.

That year, the Empress Dowager summoned Xie Qingrou, and Xie Qingrou brought Nangong Yu, who was only five years old, into the palace.

Unexpectedly, only Xie Qingrou came back with the imperial edict, while Nangong Yu was left in the palace to serve as a companion to the then little prince, the third prince.

Since then, I rarely saw my son.

He had only witnessed the eldest son's intelligence in the palace.

The Empress Dowager and the late Emperor both said that Xie would be a good father. At that time, he had no intention of asking for the title of Crown Prince.

Until one day, Zhu Xinlan proposed to make Xuan'er the legitimate son and asked Nangong Su to make her the concubine.

But this requires Xie's consent.

But Xie disagreed. He thought Xie disagreed because she was afraid of snatching Nangong Yu's position as the crown prince, so he took the initiative to ask for the title of crown prince.

To show that he did not unlove his eldest son and had no intention of letting Xuan'er replace the position of crown prince.

So, now that Nangong Yu mentioned this past event, he still felt a little uncomfortable.

The prince requested for a title, but Xie still did not agree to let Zhu Xinlan be a concubine, and it has been delayed until now.
