My husband is pure and has few desires, but I gave birth to three children in a row
Chapter 333: Beating up a fallen dog
"Bullshit! My daughter-in-law didn't do anything wrong, why should she apologize to Princess Deqing?" The third master Fu Heyin couldn't stand it and cursed on the spot.
Fu Zhiyi couldn't snatch the favor from his annoying father, so he was the first one to stand up for his wife.
Feeling unhappy, he glared at the Third Master before saying coldly, "Third Brother, it's okay if you're too weak to stand up straight, but don't think everyone else is as spineless as you! My wife didn't do anything wrong, why should she apologize?"
The third master echoed: "That's right! Why?"
Fu Zhiming was publicly confronted by Fu Zhiyi, who mocked him for being spineless. His face flushed red. "Fourth Brother, what do you mean by that? I'm considering the overall situation! Do you think everyone is like you and your sister-in-law, only caring about your own pleasure, promotion and wealth, and not caring about the lives of others in the Marquis' Mansion?"
"You two are selfish, you only care about yourselves! If my sister-in-law hadn't taken the initiative, would such a disaster have happened to our family? I'm doing this for everyone's sake!"
"I just asked my sister-in-law to apologize to Grand Princess Deqing, but I didn't divorce her or drive her out of the Marquis' Mansion. Is that unbearable for you?"
"When your sister-in-law said that, did she consider the feelings of the other people in our mansion? Big brother said that to save your face. Can't you hear that?"
"If you don't believe me, ask everyone present. Who would be willing to offend Princess Deqing?"
The eldest master provided Fu Zhiming with this information, and his eyes were suddenly filled with admiration and joy when he looked at Fu Zhiming. It turned out that Ming Ge was of the same mind as him.
His face darkened immediately. "I think what Ming'er said makes a lot of sense! He's also thinking about the overall situation, the entire Marquisate, and all of us! Yi'er, think carefully. If a woman in a family commits such a serious mistake, being divorced is the lightest punishment!"
"Our mansion still cares about her and only asked her to apologize to Grand Princess Deqing. This is already extremely merciful. Please don't be stubborn!"
Upon hearing this, Fu Zhiyi couldn't help but curl up his lips in a sarcastic arc: "Master, please be more careful with your words! Don't forget why my wife was conferred the title of County Lady! His Majesty commended my wife for those words! But Master said that my wife made a big mistake by saying that?"
The master's face suddenly changed, and he quickly realized his gaffe.
"I, I didn't mean that—"
"Whether this is what the master means or not, everyone present here knows it very well! You'd better think clearly about why His Majesty conferred the title of County Lady on my wife before you speak!" Fu Zhiyi sneered.
The eldest master's face changed again and again, and at this moment he seemed to understand something. His face turned pale and he looked at the old marquis.
The second master stopped looking at the teacup and looked at Fu Zhiyi with a complicated expression.
The third master didn't quite understand, but when he saw the eldest master's unhappy expression, he realized that his son's words had touched the eldest master's sore spot.
Jump out on the spot, to beat the fallen dog, ah, no, to take advantage of the victory to pursue it!
"Brother Yi is right! His Majesty has commended her, which means my daughter-in-law did nothing wrong! Not only was she right, she was absolutely right! Since my daughter-in-law did nothing wrong, then it must be the Grand Princess of Deqing who did something wrong! If the Grand Princess of Deqing was wrong, what's wrong with impeaching her son? If the Grand Princess was wrong, her son is just as bad as her, how can anything good happen to him?"
"Since there's nothing wrong with impeaching Grand Princess Deqing's son, what are we worried about? We haven't done anything wrong, so what are we worried about? With His Majesty here, can Grand Princess Deqing still attack my daughter-in-law? Wouldn't that be going against His Majesty? Humph, if my daughter-in-law loses a hair, we can go to His Majesty and make a scene, saying that Grand Princess Deqing has evil intentions and is taking revenge on my daughter-in-law—"
As the third master was speaking, he met the eyes of the old marquis who was sitting in the upper seat, his own son who was sitting next to him, his eldest brother, second brother who was not far away, and his three nephews. He was startled and his voice became smaller and smaller.
Finally, he simply kept silent and turned to look at his son Fu Zhiyi: "Why are you looking at me like that? Did I say something wrong?"
The old marquis who was sitting in the upper seat finally spoke: "You are not wrong! On the contrary, you are absolutely right!"
After saying this, he looked at the eldest master with a look of disappointment that didn't allow him to be wrong: "Big brother, even the third brother can understand this, how come you don't see it?"
The master's face turned pale and blue, and he stammered and couldn't speak.
He was also reminded by the third brother's words at this moment. That's right! His Majesty has already made his attitude clear!
Moreover, there were more than just their people attending the court today, there were several more!
Thinking back to the court, there were people who criticized the Grand Princess Deqing’s faction in the past, but some people would spontaneously make excuses for the Grand Princess Deqing’s faction, and His Majesty would take advantage of the situation to lift them up and lower them, turning big things into small things and small things into nothing.
Even if there were memorials, most of them were kept in the palace and not sent out.
This time, apart from the people of Princess Deqing's family, no one came to exonerate Marquis Jingning.
More people remained silent, or let the situation develop.
Moreover, His Majesty's attitude was to let Marquis Jingning submit a memorial to defend himself first. Although this was the procedure that officials under impeachment should follow, compared with the previous one, it had already sent a clear signal.
At this moment, the eldest master finally understood the old marquis' intention of having people from his own faction come forward to impeach Marquis Jingning.
After figuring out this point, the master's face turned extremely ugly. He took a few steps back, sat down on the chair and stopped talking.
After a long while, he managed to force a smile: "It was my son's negligence. He only looked at this matter with the old perspective and thought it would be the same as before!"
Fu Zhiming also began to understand a little, and his expression suddenly became even uglier than the master's.
The other people also gradually understood, and everyone was silent for a while.
The only sound that could be heard in the room was everyone's breathing.
After a while, the old marquis spoke again with a somewhat tired voice: "Boss, you are in this state, tell me, how can I be confident in handing over the Marquisate to you?"
The master lowered his head, clenched his fists and said nothing.
The old marquis looked at Fu Zhijian again: "Brother Jian, since you think Brother Yi's wife did nothing wrong, why don't you stick to it?"
Fu Zhijian was speechless. What could he say? In his heart, he felt that his fourth brother's wife was right and supported his fourth brother and his fourth brother's wife.
But the eldest master's attitude was clear. He had already become estranged from the eldest master and his son because of his wife's poisoning. If he still stood against the eldest master at this time, his already precarious position and the unattainable position of the crown prince would probably be lost.
It was not easy for him to withstand the pressure and say those words on behalf of his fourth brother and his wife.
What else does he need to do?
