The Concubine's Daughter Travels Through Time and Space and Takes the Road of Confrontation

Dong Pan seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and turned around to cry for help, "Mother, save me! Hua Cheng is going to attack me!"

The door quickly opened from the outside, and Dong Pan hid behind Mrs. Tong in a panic, crying and saying, "Mom, I want to go back to my parents' home. I can't stay here for another day."

Mrs. Tong suppressed her anger and said, "Alright, alright. It's natural for newlyweds not to quarrel. Your father is old, so why would you upset him over such trivial matters?"

He half coaxed and half dragged the man back to his yard, and after drinking a cup of calming tea, Dong Pan soon fell into a deep sleep.

Cong Xi knelt trembling in fear in the room. Mrs. Tong, who was sitting on the low couch, had a gloomy face. "What happened today? Tell me!" The wooden board, half an inch thick and one finger wide, placed on the table emitted a faint cold light.

"You won't tell me, right?" Mrs. Tong snorted coldly, and two maids came in from outside and pressed Congxi to the ground on the left and right. They lifted a wooden board high and dropped it heavily, and Congxi let out a scream.

A sharp pain like a piercing pain came from below. Congxi struggled and cried out, "Please spare my life, Madam, this servant says."

At night, General Hua, Mrs. Tong and Hua Cheng gathered in the study in the front yard.

"Asshole!" General Hua was furious. "You actually still have that girl's stuff. If someone gets to know about it, where will our Hua family's reputation, as well as your father's, be put?"

Mrs. Tong wiped her eyes and said, "That girl from the Cen family is really a jinx. Not only did she treat her own parents badly, but now she's trying to harm my son. If she hadn't seduced Cheng'er first, no one would want her even with her beauty. She must have forced this dirty thing on Cheng'er. You could have picked on anyone else, but this jinx."

Hua Cheng was very impatient. "It's already been done. What's the point of saying this? The important thing is to find out who gave this thing to Dong Pan."

General Hua looked at his wife and said, "I'll take care of this matter. You go back first." Only the Hua father and son were left in the room.

Looking at his son, he said in a deep voice, "Whose child is that in Cen's belly?"

Hua Cheng's face was stiff. "Why is Father asking this? If it's not the Crown Prince's, then whose could it be?"

With a "slap", a palm print appeared on Hua Cheng's cheek, and he was knocked to the side by the sudden slap. Hua Cheng raised his hand to touch his face and sneered, "She is so ungrateful. A mere orphan girl wants to be my wife."

"So you designed to send her to the bed of His Royal Highness, you bastard!" General Hua's head buzzed, and he almost couldn't breathe. "Then the child in her belly-"

Hua Cheng slumped in the chair, his expression almost numb. "It's mine."

That night, he hid in the next room for most of the night, waiting until dawn. No one knew better than him that the prince had not touched Cen Miaoxin a single finger!

After learning that Cen Miaoxin was pregnant, he urged his mother to visit again, using the excuse that being on good terms with Cen Miaoxin would only benefit the Hua family.

Nothing happened between her and the prince that night, yet the pregnancy time coincided? It was ridiculous. The child in her belly was definitely hers.

If he wanted to achieve great things and make the Hua family prosperous, how could he marry an orphan? Should he let General Cen's daughter be his concubine? He was afraid that those stubborn old subordinates of General Cen would stab the Hua family in the back and curse them.

Only by sending her to the prince's harem could he silence the gossips. But he never expected that Cen Miaoxin was actually pregnant. How could she be pregnant?!

Looking at his father's raised hands, Hua Cheng remained motionless. "Father, please beat me to death."

"You! Rebellious son!" General Hua's eyes widened in anger. He raised his hand for a long time but didn't hit him. He sighed heavily, "Now that things have come to this, what are you going to do?"

Hua Cheng suddenly smiled, his body shaking non-stop, his face filled with excitement. "It's just a piece of clothing for father, it doesn't mean anything. As long as Cen Miaoxin doesn't give birth to this child, everything will be meaningless."

"You are crazy! He is your own flesh and blood." General Hua couldn't bear it, as he was his unborn grandson.

Hua Cheng quickly assured, "Father, with Dong Pan and I here with you, are you still worried about not having a grandson? Please help your son again. I am your only son."

General Hua lowered his eyes and remained silent. After a long while, a voice rang out, "The palace is not like other places. This matter requires careful consideration."

Three days had passed since the last quarrel between the grandmother and the young master. Seeing that the young master of the Hua family treated the young lady better and better, Cong Xi breathed a sigh of relief and reported what he saw every day to his wife on time.

Unfortunately, today the mistress and the master were discussing something, so Congxi had to leave.

Mrs. Tong looked at the supplements on the table and felt a little distressed. "It's a pity to give such good things to that girl."

General Hua's face was unhappy. "Do you know what people outside have been saying about our Hua family recently? They say that our Hua family embezzled the pension money of Miss Cen, and that we were willing to sacrifice Miss Cen in order to please the palace--"

Hearing her husband talk about the compensation money, Mrs. Tong felt a little guilty and couldn't help but say, "It must be that gossipy woman Lin again. Besides, with Cen Miaoxin's appearance, wouldn't she offend people?"

General Hua coughed and said, "As an elder, please be quiet. These things must be delivered to the palace. Nothing can be missing!"

Seeing her husband's extremely tough attitude, Mrs. Tong agreed honestly.

"South Vietnam may be deploying troops soon. This is a rare opportunity for Cheng'er to make a contribution."

Mrs. Tong's eyes lit up, and before she could ask a few more questions, her husband had already walked some distance away.

"Don't worry, I will definitely take care of it for you!" Standing at the door, Mrs. Tong shouted from a distance, then happily returned to the house and started packing things.

She didn't ask for anything else, as long as Cen Miaoxin said a few good words for Cheng'er to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, she would be willing to give away not only the boxes of medicinal herbs in front of her, but even a fifty-year-old ginseng.

Lu Yun looked at the things on the table. "Mrs. Tong sent it?"

Cai He nodded and said, "They said it was for Madam Cen's health. I've checked it out and it's just some common nourishing herbs."

Lu Yun opened one of the boxes and saw that it was bird's nest. "Let's take it to the two mothers first. If there's no problem, I'll send it to Aunt Cen."

Zhou Boli walked into the house and said, "Ayun, I'm going to stay in the military camp tonight. You don't have to wait for me."

Lu Yun was a little worried. "But the Tartars are attacking?"

Zhou Boli held his wife's hand and said without hiding anything, "According to the intelligence from Kyoto, after so many days of fierce fighting, Jizhou may be lost."

Lu Yun felt her heart tremble, and asked anxiously, "When are you planning to leave?"

Zhou Boli caressed the young lady's hair lovingly. "Ayun, I can give you whatever you want. Instead of fighting the Qin Dynasty, it's better for Nanyue to fight the Tartars."

Watching her husband walk away and listening to her silly son's laughter coming from next door, Lu Yun felt as if a piece of her heart was empty.

"Master." Cai He walked closer and lowered her voice, "Mother Chen said there was something wrong with the things."

Lu Yun woke up from her dream and said, "Take me to see it."
