Spring Drunk Chang'an

"Lady Lan, no matter how wrong I am, it's all my fault. Don't blame Wen Bo. He is a good child that we have tried our best to raise."

"He is a top scholar, and he will bring honor to our Liu family. I beg you, please don't ruin him."

"You've raised him for twenty years. As the saying goes: The grace of raising is worse than the grace of giving birth. You have a motherly affection for him, don't you?"

"You have always been a good wife and a good mother!"

"I can let my father-in-law and uncle beat and scold me, and let you vent your anger, without any complaints, but, but, don't destroy Wen Bo!"

"Please, please?"

"He's still our son!"

Until now, Liu Xiu still thought that the Song family was just passing by and accidentally witnessed this incident.

He just begged.

What he meant was that he wanted the Song family to acknowledge the incident and pretend it never happened, and still let Liu Wenbai be their "legitimate son", and even wanted to get rid of Qu Qiutong.

It's wishful thinking.

Song looked at him coldly without saying a word.

Song Bin and Prince Song also stopped beating Liu Wenbai and let go.

Liu Wenbai rolled and crawled to Liu Xiu's side.

There was a moment of silence in Xinghuapo, with only the chirping sounds of birds flying in the sky.

Liu Wenrui covered his neck and looked around. Seeing that no one was talking, he thought Song was trying to compromise, so he shouted anxiously, "Mother, you can't let that illegitimate son go. He just wanted to kill me!"

"He is ruthless and has evil intentions."

"Look at me!"

He gritted his teeth and raised his face, revealing his neck which had stopped bleeding.

The wound is not deep.

But it's very long.

There was a lot of blood, and it looked scary.

However, except for Mrs. Song who showed a distressed expression, everyone else was indifferent.

The Song family father and son were tough men on the battlefield and had been injured countless times in their lives. They didn't take Liu Wenrui's minor wound seriously at all, and Old Lady Song was already used to her children and grandchildren getting injured.

As for Liu Changan: ...

She deeply hated Liu Wenbai for not being ruthless enough and not killing him directly just now. How could she be moved?

I wish he was hurt more seriously.

However, Liu Xiu didn't know what they were thinking. He glared at Liu Wenrui, secretly glanced at him, and then kicked him in the knee.

'thump. ’

Liu Wenbai, whose face was bruised and swollen after being beaten by the Song family father and son, lost his balance and fell to his knees, knocking his knees on the stones. He grimaced in pain, frowned, and turned back, "Dad..."

what are you doing?

He wanted to question.

However, before he could finish his words, Liu Xiu slapped him on the head. "What do you mean by father? You little bastard, why don't you make amends to your mother, you, and your brother?"

"Uh!" Liu Wenbai choked and looked around obscurely.

His mind, overwhelmed by fear, anger and severe pain, gradually calmed down.

Dad is helping him by asking him to bow his head.

He cannot lose his status as the eldest son.

"Mom, Wenrui, yes, it was my fault. I was confused and blinded by greed, and I made a mistake. Please, please forgive me."

Liu Wenbai's expression changed rapidly and he slammed his forehead hard on the ground.

"Lan Niang, Wenbo was just too scared. He didn't mean it!" Liu Xiu followed suit. He patted his chest and blamed himself, saying, "It's actually my fault that he treated Wenrui like that."

"It was me. I was careless and he found out about Qiu Tong's existence and his own life story. He was so scared."

"He has too deep a bond with you and was afraid that you wouldn't be able to accept the truth after you knew it. Wen Rui, on the other hand, investigated the matter and threatened him in person. He was extreme and had the wrong idea at the time, so he deserves forgiveness."

"What's more, Wen Bo definitely didn't intend to kill Wen Rui, he just wanted to scare him!"

"You beast, you're trying to scare your brother, aren't you?"

Liu Xiu tilted his head and spoke sternly.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Liu Wenbai nodded quickly.

"That's right, Lan Niang, you see, Wen Bo is a good boy. He has literary talent and instincts, and he can support our Ningguo Mansion."

"Just acknowledge him and pretend this never happened. I, I won't take Qiu Tong into the mansion. Wen Bo is still your son. I will respect you and honor you, just like before. In the future, if he passes the imperial examination and becomes a high-ranking official, inheriting the position of Duke of Ning, then you can just be a good old feudal lord, like my mother, isn't that good?"

"You, me, and Qingru, our future all depends on Wenbo!"

Liu Xiu begged desperately.

Song looked at him indifferently, "Depend on?"

"Haha, I have a son, why should I rely on a child born out of wedlock?"

"The throne of the crown prince has always been passed down to the eldest son. Liu Wenbai is not my son!"

"I just want my child!"

"But, but your child is paralyzed! That child can't walk and can't take the imperial examination." Liu Xiu said in a deep voice, his brows filled with suppressed anger. He said, "Lan Niang, you and your father-in-law don't recognize Wen Bo. What good will it do to make this matter public?"

"That child is born with a disability, and Wenrui is a playboy. He knows nothing except pursuing women and asking for willows. He is not even half as good as Wenbo!!"

"Just admit it."

"You are already a wife and a mother, why are you so willful?"

"Please be more tolerant and understand me!"

He burst into tears.

Song's face was cold.

Liu Changan even wanted to rush up and slap him in the face! !

Liu Xiu, how could he be so shameless? He was clearly the one who broke Yu Ge's leg, yet he insisted on saying it was natural! Liu Wenrui, disgusting as he was, was also deliberately made useless by him!

Besides, a wife? A mother?

so what?

Not a human being anymore?

Can’t you fight back when you’re bullied?

The Song family was deceived, their children were swapped, and they were treated like fools for twenty years?

Why should she be "more tolerant"?

Not forgiving is being willful.

Who stipulates it?

Liu Changan was so angry that tears were about to come out.

She couldn't just stand by and watch the Liu family bully her mother!

She stepped forward to help.

On the side, Old Lady Song patted her hands gently to stop her.

Song Bin and Prince Song stood on either side, protecting Mrs. Song. They glared at Liu Xiu, baring their teeth, "You bastard, what the hell are you talking about?"

"Don't you dare say that again!!"

They all sang in unison, their voices like a loud bell.

"I, I..." Liu Xiu was so scared that he shrank his neck, his eyes were panicked. After a moment, he took a deep breath as if he had made up his mind.

He lifted his shirt and bent his knees.

With a thump, he knelt down in front of Song.

"Liu Lang!!" Qu Qiutong suddenly covered her mouth, tears of humiliation instantly flowing down.

God!

A man's knees are made of gold. He kneels to the king above him and to his parents below him. But she, her Liu Lang, a dragon among men, such a proud man, how could he kneel to a woman?

Song family!! Song family!!

How dare you!!

He is your husband.

A cold look flashed through Qu Qiutong's tearful eyes as she glared at Song fiercely.

Liu Wenbai was even more moved.

Daddy has sacrificed so much for him, and he, he really has no way to repay him.
