All the guests had never thought that they could watch such a good show, and they were immediately excited.

The mother and son standing in front looked at each other in astonishment: "How is this possible?"

Sheng Qingqian, whose face had turned pale, immediately reacted when she heard Du Qiyu say this: "Someone must have come here deliberately to try to scam me because they saw that my husband has become the Seventh Prince and is holding a banquet at the mansion today?"

"They actually came to our Seventh Prince's Mansion to try to scam us. They're simply courting death!"

"It just so happens that many civil and military officials are here today. My husband, my mother, why don't you ask someone to bring that bitch in so that the adults can give us a fair judgment."

Wen Tingyun nodded: "Okay, ask someone to bring him up."

Soon, the guard came in with a woman.

Someone immediately recognized the woman's identity: "Isn't this... the courtesan that Mingyue Tower just introduced last month? What was her name? Yue Niang? Didn't they say she's still a virgin, offering her to everyone for a moment? Then they'll choose a good day and let everyone bid for her virginity?"

"You haven't even bid for your virginity yet, and you're already pregnant with the Seventh Prince's child?"

Wen Tingyun frowned and sneered: "What a joke, I have never seen this woman before, how did she get pregnant with my child?"

Sheng Qingqian's expression relaxed. With Wen Tingyun's words, she felt relieved.

Sheng Qingqian raised her chin: "A prostitute also wants to climb up to the prince in this way and become a phoenix? What a pity, my husband has always been chaste..."

Before she finished speaking, the woman named Yue Niang raised her voice and said to Wen Tingyun, "Seventh Prince, have you really forgotten? A month ago, on the second day of your wedding!"

"You were feeling depressed, so you drank with a friend at Zuixianlou. When you got tipsy, you told your friend that wine without joy was too bland."

"So, your friend sent someone to Mingyue Tower to call me over and have me play a little song for you."

"Then you got drunk and kept telling me that today was supposed to be your first day as a married woman, and you should have been happy. But the woman you married wasn't the one you wanted to marry, and someone else forced someone you didn't like on you, and you had no way of refusing."

"You said you hated..."

Du Qiyu and Wen Tingyun's expressions changed immediately. They both realized that if this woman continued talking, something big might happen today.

Du Qiyu quickly stopped the woman: "Shut up!"

The woman met Du Qiyu's gaze, bit her lip, and said with resentment, "If the Seventh Prince doesn't believe me, you can ask your friends."

She glanced around the garden, but there were so many people there that she couldn't find the person she was looking for. "I remember that the people with you that day were the young master of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion and the second young master of the Liu family..."

Two people immediately stood up during the banquet. They hurriedly walked over to Wen Tingyun and said in a low voice, "That's exactly what happened that day. Could it be that the Seventh Prince was really drunk that day? Did he forget everything?"

The young master of the Zhongyong Marquis's mansion whispered, "I was the one who asked someone to invite Yue Niang. She played a couple of little songs, and you kept pulling her along to complain and talk."

"As he was speaking, he suddenly looked at Yue Niang with affection and kept telling her that your bride should have been hers."

"We saw that the atmosphere between you was quite ambiguous, so we left the room under the pretext of sobering up."

"Later, we both went back, but by the time we got back, you and Yue Niang had already..."

He raised his hands, clenched his fists, and only extended his thumbs, touching them together. "We heard the noise, so we naturally didn't want to disturb them, so we left quickly."

Wen Tingyun's expression changed. He remembered that he had indeed drunk with the two of them that day, and he had indeed woken up on the bed in the private room of Zuixianlou the next day, but there was no one else around him at that time.

Seeing Wen Tingyun's expression, Yue Niang immediately continued, "I discovered I was pregnant a few days ago. I have only ever had sex with the Seventh Prince. This child must be his."

"Originally, I wanted to talk to you privately, Seventh Prince. But I couldn't find you anywhere. Everyone said you were injured in a horse fall recently and are recuperating in seclusion in the mansion."

"I have also sought an audience with the Seventh Prince at his residence, but no one has paid any attention to me. They even think I am here to cause trouble."

"I really have no other choice but to come to your house on such a special day as today."

"Everyone knows that I am the most beautiful lady in Mingyue Tower, but I have never been on stage to bid for her, and I am still a virgin."

"Now, I have suddenly lost my virginity and am pregnant. My mother wants to punish me. I came here today just to get a promise from the Seventh Prince."

"If the Seventh Prince does not want this child, I will abort him immediately. If the Seventh Prince wants this child, then I will give birth to him. I know that I am of low status and do not seek any status. After I give birth to the child, I will let the Seventh Prince do whatever he wants."

After hearing this, what was there for Sheng Qingqian to not understand?

This woman actually had a relationship with Wen Tingyun!

She even became pregnant with Wen Tingyun's child earlier than her, the legitimate consort of the Seventh Prince.

Sheng Qingqian was so angry that her whole body was shaking. No, she would never allow this woman and this child to stay!

How can a concubine be born before the legitimate son?

She was about to speak, but Du Qiyu spoke first: "Can you prove that the child in your belly is Tingyun's?"

Sheng Qingqian was stunned and looked at Du Qiyu in disbelief: "Mother?"

Although Du Qiyu didn't like her very much on weekdays, she thought that she was at least Wen Tingyun's legally married wife, and she was also the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

How could Du Qiyu treat her like this? Lose her face?

Even in front of a room full of guests, in front of her father and her stepmother?

Du Qiyu glanced at Sheng Qingqian quickly, with a warning in her eyes.

Afterwards, Du Qiyu tugged at Wen Tingyun's sleeve and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "If the child in her belly is yours, then you must keep it! You must protect it!"

Wen Tingyun certainly understood what she meant. He was now hurt...

If the child in Yue Niang's belly is really hers, then in all likelihood, it will be his only child.

Wen Tingyun gritted his teeth and said, "I, Wen Tingyun, am not some scumbag who denies his actions, but there are still many details to be verified. I will first have someone take her away and question her thoroughly before I can make a conclusion."

"Someone, take her away."

Sheng Lin naturally saw Wen Tingyun's intention and frowned: "What's going on? What exactly is the Seventh Prince going to do?"
