Chapter 1569

Hearing his daughter say that the child couldn't be kept, Shi Chengxuan was angry, "Why, you want to interfere in father's affairs?"

The word "filial piety" weighed down her reputation, even if she was a princess. This kind of reputation was different from ordinary reputation, especially since she was now a princess. If the historian wrote that she "did not value filial piety" when recording her, she would be infamous for eternity.

But Shi Anxia shook her head calmly, "I will never interfere in the affairs of my father's harem." Her eyes were calm, "Did father forget that you are still in the three-year mourning period? Although father is no longer an official in the court, you are still a member of Jian'an Marquis Mansion and a member of the Shi family."

Shi Chengxuan's forehead was covered with sweat. How could he have forgotten such an important matter? When he was in Ganzhou, he had slept with his concubine and had forgotten about mourning at all.

Shi Anxia's voice was cold, "'Unfilial' is one of the ten evils."

This is why there is always a saying that the word "filial piety" can end an official's career and ruin a woman's reputation.

Normally, there are quarrels and gossips will spread, after all, there is no smoke without fire, and the wind can change its direction. But the birth of a child in the filial period can be calculated with fingers.

Shi Anxia continued, "According to the law, children born during the period of filial piety are not allowed to take the imperial examination. Not only will your career be ruined, you will also be fined. If you have a bad influence, you will be exiled to Mozhou for three years. In addition, you may be expelled from the Shi clan by the elders. May I ask, father, are you ready for everything?"

How could she, a daughter, have the right to interfere in her father's affairs? The pressure from the law, clan and morality could deal with her stupid father.

Shi Chengxuan's forehead continued to sweat. Although he was stupid, he had already thought about it several times.

Raising a child during the filial period is unwise. If he really wanted this child, he could either have it born outside and then secretly bring it back at a younger age, or not even call it his child.

But now that her daughter knew about this, it would be difficult for Guo's baby to join the Shi clan again.

Fortunately, Shi Chengxuan had many children and offspring, so he didn't care about this one. He waved his hand and said, "Just abort it. It doesn't matter."

Shi Anxia looked at Shi Chengxuan's indifferent attitude, and after a long while, he slowly uttered a few words, "You really don't deserve to be a father."

Shi Chengxuan was annoyed, "Didn't you say I couldn't have children? Now you're saying I'm not worthy of being a father!"

Shi Anxia was feeling bored and rubbed his brows, "Father, please do as you please."

I am too lazy to say more! How can this be the attitude of a father? Even if you raise a cat or a dog, you shouldn't be so casual.

If he had said that he would move Guo far away to give birth, or that he would ask to leave the clan to keep the child, she would have looked up to him and thought he was responsible. Now he just said lightly, "Just abort it, it's not important"...

Shi Anxia didn't want to talk more about this issue. She was not a savior, and it was impossible for her to distract herself and think of ways to save the baby in a concubine's belly.

Especially this concubine is restless.

She was just about to order them to leave, but she saw Shi Chengxuan look up and instruct Bei Hui to go and call Tang Chujun over.

Bei Hui didn't move, just looked at Shi Anxia.

Shi Anxia frowned, "Why did father bother mother again?"

Shi Chengxuan was very nervous, but he pretended to be nonchalant. "I just want to ask your mother in person, what does she mean now? Can you get back together with me?"

Shi Anxia laughed angrily, "Father, do you think there is still a possibility between you two?"

Her mother had finally gotten rid of this man. How desperate must she be to turn back? Even if Emperor Mingde hadn't appeared, her mother would have lived a comfortable life.

I don’t know where her stupid dad got the face and courage to think that his ex-wife should get back together with him.
