"Rebellious son, even now, you still refuse to tell the truth. What is going on?"

Wan Zilang was stunned by this sudden slap.

He covered half of his face and looked at Wan Changfu in disbelief, feeling despair in his heart.

Seeing this, his mother Sun was so shocked that she immediately stood up and wanted to support Wan Zilang, but as soon as her buttocks left the stool, she saw Wan Changfu glaring at her.

Although Sun felt a little sorry for Wan Zilang, she tactfully stayed out of the situation. She just stared at Wan Zilang anxiously, hoping he wouldn't make a big mistake this time.

Otherwise, even if she sacrificed her old face, she would probably not be able to get any favor.

"Dad...even you don't believe me."

Wan Zilang felt very aggrieved.

It was true that he had lustful thoughts, but this was a common trait among all men in the world. Besides, she didn't even touch a hair of Qiu Ning, but was severely tortured by her. Why should she be punished by her father and sister in the end?

He refused to accept it, so he stiffened his neck and said, "Yes, I did have that in mind at first, but I swear, I didn't even have the chance to touch her finger before I was poisoned by her drug, and I haven't fully recovered yet.

I am the victim. One of you is my father, the Minister of Rites, and the other is my sister, the Imperial Concubine. Now everyone knows that I was bullied by a little maid in the cold palace. How can I hold my head up in front of others in the future? "

When Wan Changfu heard this, he almost fell down.

So, this unfilial son really wanted to tease the girl but failed, and was beaten up by her instead. In the end, she blamed him for not helping him.

It's really pathetic.

How come Wan Changfu has such a great daughter, but his son is such a disappointing thing?

He wanted to slap this rebellious son again.

"You bastard, this is the capital, under the feet of the emperor, how dare you do such a thing as forcibly snatching a decent girl? Do you want to kill my whole family?"

Wan Changfu was extremely angry.

Sun couldn't help but persuade him, "Master, calm down. Lang'er is still young, and it's normal for him to be tempted. In my opinion, we should find a marriage for him as soon as possible. Once he's married, his temperament will gradually become more stable, and he will know what to do and what not to do."

Sun was worthy of being the mistress who had been fighting with Concubine Rou for many years. With just a few words, she diverted Wan Changfu's attention.

Wan Changfu even began to seriously consider arranging a marriage for Wan Zilang.

"It's easy to change a country, but hard to change one's nature. Mother, do you really think that my brother will stop being an extravagant womanizer and bullying men and women after he gets married?"

Wan Rongyue pointed out the problem in a sharp manner.

Sun's face turned ugly.

Although she is Wan Rongyue's biological mother, Wan Rongyue is now a noble concubine, and her status is higher than hers. Sun dare not say no to her words.

Seeing this, Wan Changfu also looked at Wan Zilang with dismay, "Son of disobedience, stop being an eyesore. Go outside and kneel down. Come back in when you've reflected on your actions."

Although Wan Zilang was not convinced, since his father had spoken, he could only kneel down in shame.

Afterwards, when Wan Changfu calmed down, he asked Sun to prepare the meal and asked someone to invite Concubine Rou to join him at the table.

Concubine Rou was born a singing girl, with stunning beauty and figure, but her status was too low, so she could only be a concubine. Logically, she was not qualified to eat at the same table with the mistress. But today, in front of Wan Rongyue, even Sun Shi couldn't say a word of dissent to her face.

After all, no matter what, she is Wan Rongyue's biological mother and cannot be neglected.

The family was enjoying delicious food in the dining room, but Wan Zilang could only kneel at the door, stretching his neck to look inside.

For the first time, he felt that the dishes cooked by the chef in the mansion were so delicious that they aroused his appetite.

When the meal was almost over, Wan Changfu's anger had almost subsided.

As a father, although he was angry, he still cared deeply about the health of Wan Zilang, his only child. But he couldn't just tell him to get out.

After thinking for a while, he suddenly gave a wink to Aunt Rou and looked outside.

Aunt Rou immediately understood that the master wanted her to speak up and plead for Wan Zilang.

She was a gentle and kind woman. Although Wan Changfu had doted on her for years, she had always been content and docile. Sun had initially tried to make things difficult for her, but after giving birth to Wan Rongyue, Concubine Rou made Sun drink a bowl of sterilizing medicine in front of her and promised that she would never covet the position of mistress. Only then did Sun give up her thoughts.

In this era, if a woman does not have a son, she is like a drifting duckweed, very light.

Therefore, over the years, Aunt Rou has lived in peace in a corner, oblivious to what is happening outside, and her life has been pretty good.

Even if Wan Changfu didn't say it this time, she was planning to plead for Wan Zilang.

After thinking for a while, Aunt Rou first picked up some of Wan Changfu's favorite dishes and said gently, "Master, you seem to have lost some weight recently. Eat more."

Wan Changfu nodded in agreement, sighed, and said, "I'm still busy preparing to welcome the Chu delegation. I heard that their young crown prince is also coming with them this time. At such a young age, he is extremely talented and is very proficient in mathematics, Mohism, poetry, and other subjects. I'm afraid he came here to show off his power in our Great Xia."

This time, Wan Changfu intentionally mentioned the affairs of the court in front of Wan Rongyue, and he also wanted to let his daughter understand that she also has certain abilities in the court. Although she is not able to take charge of everything, she still has some say.

Wan Rongyue had also heard about the upcoming visit of the Chu delegation.

The main reason she left the palace this time was to have a frank talk with Wan Changfu about how to prevent the Queen's party from framing her.

By the way, I also want to know something about the Crown Prince of Chu.

Qiu Ning told her that if she wanted to consolidate her and the Sixth Prince's positions, she could let the Sixth Prince show his abilities appropriately.

Only when His Majesty and the officials see the Sixth Prince's excellence will the Crown Prince's mediocrity and incompetence be highlighted, thus inducing the Queen and others to take the initiative to attack them.

As long as they take action, there will be traces and handles left, which will become a hole to tear off the masks of the Queen and others.

This time, the visit of the Chu delegation might be a great opportunity for the Sixth Prince to show his abilities.

Next, everyone talked about the topic of Chu State for a while, and then returned to Wan Zilang.

Seeing that the situation was almost over, Concubine Rou spoke up for Wan Zilang, "Master, as the saying goes, a prodigal son who returns is worth more than gold. I believe that the eldest young master was simply confused yesterday, mistaking that palace maid for an ordinary woman, and that's why he suffered. I believe that after this incident, the eldest young master will definitely mend his ways."

"Lunch is almost over, and the punishment has been given. Why don't we wake up the eldest son first so that we can have a good meal as a family?"

Wan Changfu originally wanted to ask Wan Zilang to stand up, but after hearing what Aunt Rou said, he naturally went down the stairs.

"You are always so kind and always think about others." He patted Aunt Rou's hand and said.

Aunt Rou pursed her lips and smiled, her well-maintained face showing a calm expression.

Seeing this, Sun looked at Aunt Rou with gratitude and hurriedly ordered the servant beside her to bring another stool.
