Wei Zhilan felt even more aggrieved after hearing this. She was trying to persuade her husband to make progress, but before she could say a few words, Xiao Xu became annoyed, and her mother-in-law even joined in, and asked Mother Wu beside her to teach her what women's words and women's work are.

How could she persuade him like this?

Now, hearing Zheng say this, she suddenly became furious: "Can this be blamed on me? As the saying goes, loving mothers often spoil their children. This is all caused by my mother-in-law.

If the mother-in-law had been stricter with my husband and stopped protecting him, he wouldn't have lost his title."

She had a hot temper to begin with, otherwise she wouldn't have smashed Yun Fu's shop after being provoked by Song Yao.

"How dare you..."

Zheng's face turned ugly when she heard this, and she was a little bit unbelievable. Since Wei Zhilan came into the mansion, she had never dared to contradict her like this.

It turns out she was just pretending before.

"I dared to contradict you and let your son divorce me, right? Mother-in-law, don't you think this is the Marquis's Mansion?

I think it is unnecessary. Since I am not what my mother-in-law likes, I will not bother her. I have decided to divorce your son."

Wei Zhilan said this and walked out.

Zheng was so furious that her chest ached. She asked Mother Wu to stop Wei Zhilan and slap her ten times if she dared to talk back to her mother-in-law.

How could Mother Wu agree? She was the one who arranged this marriage, and the wet nurse next to Wei Zhilan was her own sister.

She advised, "Madam, please calm down. Our house is no longer the same as it used to be. Now our house is entirely supported by Wei. If she gets angry and leaves, I'm afraid our house will be..."

Zheng naturally knew what Mother Wu meant. The Xiao Mansion was now unable to make ends meet, so she had previously married the daughter of a wealthy businessman to Xiao Xu as a concubine. However, after learning that Xiao Xu had lost his title, she also left the Xiao Mansion.

If Wei Zhilan had not used the little remaining dowry to run the Xiao residence, the Xiao family would probably not even be able to afford food by now.

As soon as Wei Zhilan walked out of Zheng's yard, she heard a commotion outside. She ordered the maid beside her, "Go see what's going on outside?"

The maid ran away in a hurry and came back soon, "Madam, Madam Song is back."

"What Madam Song? Which Madam Song?"

"That's the old lady."

Wei Zhilan frowned, "Nonsense, the former Madam Song, my cousin died a long time ago."

“Madam, please go and have a look. The person in the lead looks exactly like Madam Song, but she brought a dozen Dongling people to our house.”

Wei Zhilan snorted coldly. She actually dared to come back.

Wei Zhilan knew that she had killed someone in Baihua Tower and hid herself.

Although more than a year has passed since the incident, Baihua Tower is still looking for her, and the government is also looking for her.

She ordered the maid: "Go and inform Baihualou that the Miss Song who killed someone in Baihualou has been found."

"Yes."

The maid ran away from the back door of the Xiao Mansion, while Wei Zhilan led people to the front yard and saw Song Yao at a glance, "Is it really you?"

Wei Zhilan was a little puzzled when she saw that there were actually a dozen Dongling people following Song Yao.

"Yes, my dear cousin, you are doing a very impressive job as the Crown Prince's wife."

"Cousin, you killed someone back then, and you still dare to show up in public, aren't you afraid?"

Song raised his eyes and said, "Afraid? Oh, thank you for your concern, cousin. You should just worry about yourself. Hold her down for me."

Song Yao gave an order, and two Dongling soldiers came forward and came to Wei Zhilan, trying to grab her. Wei Zhilan was so scared that she hid backwards, "What are you going to do?"

She is a lady in the harem. If she is caught by a man outside and the news spreads, she will lose all her dignity.

The maid tried to stop the Dongling soldiers but was kicked to the ground by two of them. Wei Zhilan was then controlled and taken to Song Yao's side.

Song raised his hand and slapped him.

"You bitch, why did you hit me?"

Song Yao looked at her and smiled, "Why? Because I am the princess of Dongling. Even if you die in my hands today, the emperor of your Great Zhou will not say anything."

Wei Zhilan was shocked. What? She was the princess of Dongling?

No wonder she wanted to kill Princess Zhenguo, it turns out she was Princess Dongling.

After the surprise, all that was left of Wei Zhilan was fear. She had to say that she was right. If Song Yao killed her today, even the emperor would not do anything to her.

"Cousin, everything before was a misunderstanding. I am your cousin. You once lived in the Wei Mansion. We lived and ate together. Have you forgotten?"

Song Yao raised his hand and slapped him again, "I haven't forgotten. I haven't forgotten that you smashed my shop, robbed my husband, sent me to Baihua Tower, and told others that I was dead..."

Song Yao raised his foot and kicked Wei Zhilan in the stomach, "Wei Zhilan, you fell into my hands today, and you still tried to play the emotional card with me, but it's too late."

Song Yao felt very tired from doing it himself, so he ordered the soldiers to beat and kick Wei Zhilan. Seeing this, Wei Zhilan's wet nurse, Mother Wu, rushed to protect her, but was kicked several feet away.

Wei Zhilan suddenly felt a pain in her lower abdomen and something flowed out of her body. After a while, the ground was covered with bright red.

Mother Wu was startled. She had a bad feeling and hurried over: "Madam, what happened to you? Damn it, girl, are you... having a miscarriage?"

Song waved his hand, signaling the soldiers to stop.

Wei Zhilan's face turned pale, and she rolled on the ground in pain. Mother Wu became even more panicked, "Girl, girl, don't scare me, my poor girl..."

She knelt in front of Song Yao and kowtowed repeatedly, "Please, Princess, please let our young lady go. Our young lady doesn't know that you are Princess Dongling. If she knew, she would definitely not marry into the Xiao Mansion.

Now, Prince Xiao has been stripped of his title, and the Marquisate is now an empty shell. Our daughter is always bullied, and she regrets marrying into the Xiao family. You are all miserable people."

After a while, blood started to appear on Mother Wu's forehead.

When Song Yao heard that Xiao Xu's title was taken away, she was immediately happy, "Really? That's good! I wonder if Xiao Xu regrets abandoning me when he sees me now."

Zheng Shi also knew something happened in the front yard after her servants reported it. She came out and saw that it was Song Yao, and she was furious: "It's you? How dare you come here? This is not the place for you to act wildly, get out!"

Even if Zheng didn't like Wei Zhilan, she was her daughter-in-law after all, and represented the face of the Xiao family. She could not be bullied by others.

Even though they lost their title, the Xiao family was not to the point where they could be bullied.

Song Yao didn't say anything. She just made a look, and someone immediately stepped forward to arrest Zheng. Zheng scolded, "How dare you break into a private house in broad daylight and hurt someone. Do you think there is still law?"

Song Yao sneered, "The king's law? I am the king's law!"

When Zheng saw that Song Yao was serious, she quickly sent people to stop them.

But how could the servants of the Xiao mansion be a match for the officers and soldiers of Dongling? Soon, they were all knocked to the ground.

Zheng was now afraid. "Who are you guys? Why do you dare to..."

Song Yaoqi stepped forward and said, "You mean why do you dare to come to the Xiao Mansion to cause trouble? Because we Dongling are the victors, even the emperor of your Great Zhou is afraid of my father. Do you think I dare?"

Zheng finally reacted and looked at Song Yao, "Are you the princess of Dongling?"
