The sickly son died young? After the marriage exchange, I will bring prosperity to his entire clan f

"Now that Silang has children and life is going smoothly, please don't worry too much. Just enjoy being a happy old lady and live a good life."

“I suspect that what Wu Daniu said in the yard just now was intentional. He just couldn’t stand seeing our family doing well, so he deliberately said those things to make you and Dad misunderstand and make you feel bad.”

"It will also put Mingxian in a difficult position. You must not get angry, or you will fall into his trap."

"You wouldn't believe it, he got his position by sleeping with women. Oh my... a grown man, he only got his current position by sleeping with women. Isn't that shameful?"

"Why are you so angry about someone like that?"

After Xiao Zhou's spiel, Du Mingxian was full of admiration and secretly gave Xiao Zhou a thumbs up.

Ling's mother was heartbroken at that time. Mingxian was her favorite daughter-in-law, and she also loved her youngest son. But now that her youngest son was in jail, there was no man in the house, and outside men came to the door to disgust her. This was too infuriating.

They even suggested their son get a divorce. That's so hurtful. Does that mean their son won't be able to leave the house again?

The thought that her son might spend the rest of his life in jail, with no clear future, made her very sad.

Hearing what Xiao Zhou said, she suddenly felt relieved, wiped away her tears, and took Du Mingxian's hand, "Mingxian, don't worry, if Silang really doesn't come out in the future, Mother will find you a good family to live with..."

“Mother, how can you say that? My husband will come out. Even if he does make a mistake in the future, I will do everything I can to protect him.”

Du Mingxian also grasped Xiao Zhou's hand in return and said with utmost seriousness, "Mother, when I was arranged to marry into the Ling family, you and Father did not despise me, my brothers and sisters-in-law did not despise me, and my husband did not despise me either. How could I bear to leave this family?"

"Don't take what Wu Daniu said to heart. He's been causing trouble for quite a while now. Don't worry, I will definitely make him pay the price. You may not know, but all those things that happened at home were orchestrated by Wu Daniu behind the scenes."

"What?" Ling's mother and Xiao Zhou both exclaimed in unison, unable to believe it.

Du Mingxian carefully explained that in the end, Ling's mother and Xiao Zhoushi hated each other so much that they wished they could cut Wu Daniu into a thousand pieces.

“Mother, don’t worry. Wu Daniu is keeping a woman outside. Du Mingwei, whom he married before, is now just a concubine in that woman’s eyes. The relationship is all messed up.”

"You don't have anything to worry about. Just rest and take good care of yourself. Just listen to what your second sister-in-law said and be happy every day. We'll take care of everything else."

Xiao Zhou also tried to persuade her, and Ling's mother's condition improved somewhat.

Du Mingxian secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Ling's mother had been somewhat insane before, but after arriving in the capital, perhaps because the gossipy environment in the village was gone, and with Ling Silang often taking care of her, her mood improved, and her condition naturally improved as well.

Ling's mother had only recently recovered from her illness. If Wu Daniu were to fall ill again, she would do everything in her power to secretly kill him.

After dinner, Du Mingxian thought it over and decided to tell the Emperor about the Crown Prince. She couldn't keep it a secret; if something really happened, she would also be held responsible.

So she went to the emperor's room.

When the Emperor saw her enter, he instinctively took a step back. "Is there something you need?"

Du Mingxian said in a low voice, "The Crown Prince was injured, and those people wouldn't give him any medicine, so I secretly sent him some medicine at night, but... because of the theft of the national treasury yesterday, the Crown Prince wasn't in his palace last night."

“I’ve searched all over the place here, but I still can’t find the Crown Prince. I only returned at dawn today. Tonight… I still want to go into the palace to take another look. If the Crown Prince isn’t here, I’ll go to the Crown Prince’s residence immediately to check.”

The Emperor's body trembled. He took a step back and sat on the bed, closing his eyes briefly. "Go and search for the Crown Prince tonight. If you can't find him, come back early. I have something to assign you."

"Yes."

Du Mingxian did not hesitate and left immediately. She did not wait until late tonight to enter the palace.

The Crown Prince was not in the palace, so she went to the Crown Prince's residence. As she approached the residence, she sensed something was wrong. Her whole body tensed up, and she cautiously moved forward little by little.

But when she secretly climbed over the wall and went inside, she saw... the Crown Prince's residence was full of Tharvas.

These people were all tall, unlike the people of Da Shun. Even the women were tall and had muscular bodies.

They were sitting, standing, or lying down, occupying the entire Crown Prince's residence without any regard for appearances. There were too many people inside, and if she rushed in, she would be exposed at any moment.

She was about to leave when she noticed... a group of people walking over, chatting and laughing.

Du Mingxian entered the space immediately and then stared at the group of people who had arrived.

She saw the old man who had asked the Fourth Prince to do something in the palace that night. The old man was with a young man, who was chatting and laughing with the Third Prince.

After the young man saw the Third Prince off, the Third Prince got into his carriage, and the young man went straight back to the Crown Prince's residence.

Du Mingxian wanted to catch up with the Third Prince, but before she could leave, she heard a commotion in the courtyard. Someone ran over, shouting, "Twelfth Prince, please save him, please save him, I beg you!"

The familiar voice made Du Mingxian stiffen. For a moment, she didn't check where the Third Prince had gone. These things should be left for the Emperor to worry about once he returned to the throne.

Guo Miaomiao, the person she had been searching for for so long, was actually kneeling in front of that young man at the Crown Prince's residence. He was the twelfth prince of the Tathagata.

Su An's half-brother.

The twelfth prince, who was being begged, showed no sympathy whatsoever; instead, he smiled wickedly and reached out to lift Guo Miaomiao's chin. "Let me see who this is, beautiful Miaomiao. If you agree to spend one night with me, I'll save Su An, how about that?"

Guo Miaomiao was in a dilemma. Su An's condition was critical. If he didn't receive treatment soon, he might die. He really might die. She didn't want Su An to die.

But did she really give herself to Su Yun?

Su Yun is the most skilled at disguising himself among the princes of the Tapo. No one knows what he's thinking. One moment he might be calling you brother, the next he might be slitting your throat with a knife.

He might fight you to the death, becoming your mortal enemy, but the next moment he might be begging for your forgiveness, because he loves you the most.

and many more.

Su Yun was a notorious madman, and many women had died at his hands.

"Is it so difficult? If it's so difficult, why did you come to me for help? It seems you're not that determined to save Su An." Su Yun glanced at Guo Miaomiao with disdain, then turned and left.

Guo Miaomiao opened her mouth awkwardly, watching Su Yun leave. She made up her mind, "I promise you, I promise you, as long as you are willing to save him, I will agree to any condition you set."

Su Yun, who was walking forward, turned back with a wicked smile on his face, then walked back and stopped in front of Guo Miaomiao. "Really?"
