Spring Drunk Chang'an

"Chang'an~" Old Lady Song was startled, then turned around immediately. With curiosity and tenderness in her eyes, she smiled and asked, "What do you want to call me for?"

The tone was kind and warm.

Liu Changan pursed his lips, ran forward quickly, and looked excited.

The old lady's attitude towards her became better and better.

It's not like a master treating his servant, but more like a loving grandmother watching her naughty grandchildren.

She clenched her fists, suppressed the boiling emotions in her heart, and whispered, "Old lady, I, I want to talk to you about the Second Young Master..."

“He, he!!”

Liu Wenrui is cold-hearted, selfish, cruel, and ambitious.

"The Second Young Master is determined to get the position of the Crown Prince. Will he be willing to leave with Madam?" Liu Changan reminded in a low voice with a worried look on his face.

Although the Ningguo Mansion and the Cheng'en Mansion are both duke families, the difference between a son and a nephew is as great as the distance between heaven and earth.

No matter how much the Song family loves Song, she is, after all, a married woman. After the divorce... even if her parents do not despise her and welcome her back with her children, the Song family's ancestral property will definitely not be given to her.

The children who stay with her will most likely only get Song's dowry and some private property from Song Bin and Old Lady Song in the future.

If he wants to become an official in the future, he will not receive the Song family's full support.

After all, Prince Song also has a son.

Their surname is Liu, not Song.

Will Liu Wenrui be willing to accept this? Following his divorced mother, he was removed from the family tree and went from being the legitimate son of a duke to being the awkward cousin of another duke's mansion.

"Of course he won't be willing to accept this!" Old Madam Song said softly, her eyes gleaming. She patted Liu Chang'an's hand and said, "But, given the current situation, what does it matter if he's unwilling to accept this?"

"Liu Wenbai was about to kill him. In fact, if we hadn't shown up, he would have already died."

"Liu Xiu watched this scene happen without stopping it."

"Between his two sons, he chose to protect Liu Wenbai!"

"Wen Rui saw it clearly. After Lan Niang successfully divorced, the only person in the Ningguo Mansion who was on his side would no longer be there. If he stayed, he would have to face Liu Xiu, who had abandoned him, and Liu Wenbai, who had a mortal grudge against him!"

"Will Mrs. Lai protect him? Haha, not necessarily."

"What benefits can he gain by staying?" Old Madam Song lowered her eyes, her face cold and gloomy. "Wenrui's character is cold and selfish, but he is not a fool. He should understand when a situation is beneficial to him."

"Lan Niang's dowry is generous. Even if it's not as good as the Ningguo Mansion, it's enough for him to live a luxurious life. Chengji will do his best to help him. We two old men are still in good health and will not let him end up in such a miserable state!"

"Yu'er has difficulty with his legs, and Qingru is a girl, so the family will do their best to help him."

"It's much better for him to go back to the Song family with Lan Niang than to stay in the Ningguo Mansion."

This was also the reason why she and the old man did not object when His Highness came to them, and told Liu Wenbai about Wenrui's investigation of the truth.

She wanted to cut off Wenrui's retreat and force him to follow Lan Niang.

Speaking of which...

This was also her selfishness as a mother. Yu'er had difficulty walking and had a strange and weak temper. I heard he was addicted to suicide and would commit suicide three or five times a year. No one knew if he could withstand such a big shock after being recognized.

It turned out that the eldest son of the glorious and brilliant duke's family, the most noble young master in the capital except for me, who was a member of the royal family of the Xiao clan, had become a disabled person who lived in the gutter and struggled to make ends meet.

Liu Yu has such a strong character? Can he accept it?

Would the contrast be so great that it would actually trigger a dark thought in him? Would he succeed in committing suicide?

Qingru is a girl, and... there is an 80% chance that she is not Lan Niang's biological daughter. Chang'an is kind, gentle and considerate, but she did not grow up with the Song family after all.

The grace of giving birth is not as good as the grace of raising.

Chang'an has a mother named Qingmei.

She is a girl. In the future, she and the old man will be gone, and Lan Niang will be old. She needs a son to live in her arms and take care of her until the end of her life, so that she won't have a miserable old age.

Lan Niang is weak-willed and not good at making decisions.

She wants to make good arrangements for her daughter's later years.

Lan Niang needs a son who is wholeheartedly "biased" towards her, even if it is for money and benefits.

"Wenrui is a smart child. He will understand that following Lan Niang is his best choice!" Old Lady Song's eyes sparkled. "If he stays in the Ningguo Mansion, he will never be as good as Liu Wenbai!"

"This……"

Not necessarily.

Liu Changan pursed his lips, with uneasiness in his eyes.

Old Lady Song felt that she had cut off Liu Wenrui's retreat and that he was a smart man who would not risk staying in the Ningguo Mansion to compete with Liu Wenbai, but power is a powerful force.

Liu Wenbo's identity as the son of an illegitimate child is his biggest flaw.

He is not flawless.

And Liu Wenrui...

He is an unconventional, shameless, and unscrupulous adventurer.

In the previous life, Xiaoyue and Liu Wenbai failed to reach an agreement on marriage. Liu Wenrui wanted to take advantage of the situation and encouraged Liu Xiu to propose marriage on his behalf. After the Shi family rejected him, he should have given up, right?

Even if he wanted to fight for her, he should have used his handsome face, considerateness and affection to attract the girl's love. This is what a normal, shameless and despicable person would do!

But Liu Wenrui didn't.

He defiled Xiaoyue, forced the Duke of Qi to marry his daughter, and forced Liu Xiu to take care of the rotten paralytic for him.

There is something crazy about him.

I'm afraid things won't go according to Mrs. Song's idea.

Liu Changan felt uneasy, but he couldn't tell her about his past life. He could only purse his lips, sigh, and say expectantly: "Old lady, if you are willing to do something in this world..."

"As you wish."

-

The Prince's Villa, in a remote courtyard.

Qu Qiutong covered her face, which was as red and swollen as a pig, and cried, as if she was sad, but in fact, there was a gleam of brilliance in her eyes.

That is extreme desire and greed.

"Wen Bo, you said that things have come to this point and there is no turning back. Then, will your father welcome me into the family? I will become the mistress of the Ningguo Mansion. In that case, your father and I can be together legitimately."

"You are the legitimate eldest son, so you don't have to be afraid of anything anymore!"

She murmured, her eyes full of anticipation.

Liu Wenbai frowned and paced back and forth in the room in annoyance, looking out the window from time to time.

Anxious expression.

He ignored Qu Qiutong.

"Wenbo, you, you say something to me!" Qu Qiutong bit her lip and pushed her son with tears in her eyes.

Liu Wenbai's expression was instantly filled with impatience. He suppressed his helplessness and took a deep breath, "Mom, Dad doesn't want to marry you, not because of the Song family, but because you are the daughter of a criminal!"

"The confiscation of the Qu family's property is an imperial decree from His Majesty. Unless Prince Yan ascends the throne and makes his name known throughout the world, your identity will forever remain a disgrace."

"What's more, she married my dad!"

"There's a difference between dreams and wishful thinking, motherf*cker!"
