I took over after the heroine of the abusive novel ran away

Several imperial doctors examined Xiao Yuchen in front of the emperor and finally concluded that the marquis's wife was not lying.

It was not until this moment that Su Tingxue finally breathed a sigh of relief and thanked God for his protection.

Su Lingyu: No, you should thank me for your blessing.

However, Su Tingxue looked at Xiao Yuchen, who lowered his head and remained silent, with a complicated look in her eyes.

However, the one who could not accept this result the most was not Lord Xiao, but Concubine Yun.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible, how could it be such a coincidence, did you bribe the imperial physician? Tell me! You said you love Su Tingxue and that the baby in her belly is yours!"

Concubine Yun was shaking Xiao Yuchen's wheelchair in a somewhat crazy manner.

When Madam Hou saw that Xiao Yuchen was pushed to the point of being on the verge of falling by Concubine Yun, she became furious and, without caring about losing manners in front of the emperor, she took a few steps forward and pushed Concubine Yun away.

"Concubine Yun, please respect yourself. My son has proven his innocence. Please stop throwing dirty water on him. I am a little surprised. The people from the Dali Temple searched for so long and couldn't find the thief. How come Concubine Yun just happened to find him? Concubine Yun's behavior today makes it hard not to suspect that all this was deliberately calculated by Concubine Yun."

Concubine Yun was extremely flustered when the Marquis' wife hit the nail on the head. She had indeed directed and acted all of this herself. Originally, she just wanted to have Su Tingxue kidnapped to ruin her reputation so as to remove her from the position of Princess Qin. But she didn't expect Su Tingxue to be rescued and later become pregnant. So, she suddenly had an idea and wanted to kill two birds with one stone and get rid of Su Tingxue completely.

But she had never expected that Xiao Yuchen's health would not be good, which made her plan completely fail.

Seeing that everyone was looking at her suspiciously, Concubine Yun finally became afraid. She crawled in front of Concubine Sheng, grabbed her clothes and cried.

"Aunt, Aunt, I'm not lying. Even if the child is not Xiao Yuchen's, Su Tingxue and Xiao Yuchen really have nothing to do with each other. Otherwise, why would Xiao Yuchen risk his life to save her so many times?

The position of Qin Wangfei should have been mine, and you were interested in me at the beginning! It was Su Tingxue who seduced her cousin and took my position as the princess."

Su Lingyu was speechless. This Concubine Yun was really not very smart and had a very bad mentality. Wasn't she just admitting her guilt?

Seeing Concubine Yun holding her legs and wailing, Concubine Sheng was so angry that her head was buzzing with pain. She wanted to slap her to death. Now that something bad happened, she thought of her aunt. She just saw that she was very arrogant.

This idiot, if she wasn't her niece, she would have dragged her out and beaten her to death.

She couldn't help but feel fortunate that she was not allowed to become the Princess of Qin. Otherwise, she would have had such a stupid daughter-in-law, and who knows how much trouble she would have caused for her son.

Although the mother's family is important, it is not as important as the son's.

At this moment, compared with Concubine Yun, she looked at Su Tingxue more favorably.

She took a deep breath and bent her knees towards the emperor.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Yun has gone insane. Please hand her over to me."

The emperor nodded indifferently. The matter was almost clear. After all, it was a matter of the rear house of Prince Qin's Mansion, so it was appropriate to let Concubine Sheng handle it.

In the end, Su Lingyu and the others safely left the palace and returned to the Marquis' Mansion under the pitying gazes of the royal family members.

However, although they managed to get through the crisis safely, no one was very happy except Su Lingyu.

As soon as Xiao Yuchen returned home, he locked himself in the study and refused to see anyone.

That night, Lord Xiao and his wife had a fierce quarrel.

"Hu, you knew that Chen'er was incapable, but you hid it from me and occupied the position of the Crown Prince. You wanted my mansion to be without a successor." Marquis Xiao pointed at the Marquis' wife and shouted angrily.

If it weren't for this incident, he didn't know how long he would have been kept in the dark.

"This is only temporary, Chen'er will be fine." Mrs. Hou argued with her neck stiff.

"I didn't expect the Marquis to be so cruel. Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. The matter has not been settled yet, but the Marquis can't wait to push my son to death. You have such a cruel heart!"

Thinking of Lord Xiao's performance in the palace just now, Madam Hou couldn't help but feel chilled. She was now completely disappointed in Lord Xiao.

"Under the circumstances at the time, I had to do that for the sake of the Marquis' Mansion."

Lord Xiao said confidently,

It's not like he really only has Xiao Yuchen as his son, so it's impossible for him to bury the entire marquisate for a son who can't do anything.

If he could abandon Xiao Yuchen to save the Marquis' Mansion, he would not hesitate at all.

"Hmph, what a helplessness. I don't know you. You probably hope that something happens to Chen'er so that you can make room for that bastard outside." The Marquis's wife gave him a cold look with a sarcastic tone.

"You jealous woman, it's not that I want to take away his position as the crown prince, but how can Chen'er inherit the Marquisate in his current condition? This time, whether you are willing or not, I will bring Ping'er and her two sons back to the mansion. This Marquisate cannot fall into my hands." Marquis Xiao said firmly.

"I don't agree. If the Marquis dares to take them back, don't blame me for being cruel and merciless." The Marquis's wife slammed the table and glared at Marquis Xiao viciously.

She no longer counted on Lord Xiao, so she had to keep the position of the heir of the Marquisate. Only by keeping Xiao Yuchen's position as the heir could she keep the glory of the rest of her life. As for Xiao Yuchen's inability to have children, couldn't he still adopt someone else? In short, this huge Marquisate couldn't be given away to those bastards outside.

"You...you vicious woman!"

In the early years, there were several concubines and two illegitimate sons in the Marquis's Mansion, but those two children did not grow up and died before the age of three.

The concubines in the mansion could not give birth even if they got pregnant, and all this was done by Madam Hou.

Marquis Xiao was concerned that his wife knew all those secrets and it was difficult to punish her, so he simply moved out of the mansion, kept a mistress outside, and had several children with her.

After the Marquis's wife found out, she went to the house and made a scene. In the end, Lord Xiao promised that he would never bring the concubine back to the mansion, nor would he let the children recognize their ancestors. The mansion only recognized Xiao Yuchen as the prince. He also used Xiao Yuchen to warn the Marquis's wife, and she had no choice but to give up.

Over the years, Lord Xiao has fulfilled his promise, and the two sides have lived in peace.

But now, because of Xiao Yuchen's body, all the balance was broken.

Lord Xiao regretted his decision so much. Why did he marry this crazy woman named Hu and let her hold something against him?

"Poisonous woman? No matter what you think, you know me. If you push me to the limit, I don't mind dragging the entire mansion down with you."

The Marquis's wife met his gaze without fear, sat down slowly, and her tone was full of threats.

She used to admire him and feel heartbroken, but now she no longer cares.

She looked at the man in front of her who was no longer young. He clearly hated her but he couldn't do anything to her. She felt very happy in her heart.

She fell in love with the young Lord Xiao at first sight, and for this reason she even schemed to disfigure her cousin who was originally engaged to Lord Xiao, so that he could marry her as he wished.

When they first got married, they did live a harmonious and sweet life, but unfortunately it didn't last long.

Later, she became pregnant and could not serve him. She did not want to share her husband with others, so she rejected the concubine given by her mother-in-law. At that time, she naively thought that he loved her, but unfortunately she was wrong. Men are unreliable.

This man had sex with her personal maid during her pregnancy, and later on he allowed those concubines in the backyard to bully her. Those bitches thought they couldn't do anything to her since she had given birth to a son, and even tried to harm her child. This man knew about their behavior but chose to smooth things over. Her love for him had long been wiped out by these things.

The two refused to give in to each other and finally parted unhappily. Early the next morning, Lord Xiao took Xiao Yixuan out of the city.
