After the eldest sister-in-law of a fishing family became a widow, her disabled younger brother-in-l

The passage was long and narrow, and it would take a while to walk to see Xie Yunqi. A cool breeze blew from somewhere, making Song Jinwan feel inexplicably creeped out.

However, the cold wind did calm her down a bit, and thinking about what Jiang Yuyue had just said to her, she couldn't help but feel that something was wrong.

Even if this bitch harbors resentment towards me, there's really no need for her to fabricate the story about Hong'er's bloodline. But she claims Xie Yunqi is a eunuch?

Now that she had calmed down, Song Jinwan immediately realized that something was wrong. To be honest, she and Xie Yunqi hadn't slept together many times.

The only time was on their wedding night, but she got so drunk that she was unconscious. Song Jinwan herself didn't know the specifics of that night. In the days that followed, Xie Yunqi avoided sleeping together, citing his old injuries. Then she found out she was pregnant.

Upon closer reflection, Song Jinwan felt a chill run down her spine. Even though she didn't want to believe Jiang Yuyue's words, it seemed... she really couldn't confirm whether Xie Yunqi was truly impotent.

But if he really is impotent, then how did Hong'er come to be?!

This conjecture made Song Jinwan gasp, and at that moment the jailer had already led her to Xie Yunqi's cell door. "Your Highness, this is Xie Yunqi's cell."

After saying this, the jailer kicked the cell door several more times, shouting, "Xie Yunqi! Her Highness the Princess has come to see you!"

Upon hearing this, Xie Yunqi rushed forward and grabbed the cell door, his eyes filled with pleading for help as he looked at Song Jinwan. After all, Song Jinwan was the only one who could save him now!

But he had already been given a drug to make him mute, and now he was unable to make a sound with his mouth open, only able to utter a few syllables of "ah" from his throat.

"What's wrong with him?! Why can't he speak?"

Song Jinwan immediately sensed something was wrong and hurriedly asked, while the jailer, of course, knew perfectly well what was going on, but still pretended to be completely unaware, "This humble servant doesn't know! He was perfectly fine when he was brought in today, how did he become like this now?"

Thinking of Jiang Yuyue, whom she had just seen at the door, Song Jinwan gritted her teeth in hatred. Since she had arrived here first, it must have been Jiang Yuyue who did it!

"Is it that bitch Jiang Yuyue who made you unable to speak?"

Song Jinwan immediately asked, and Xie Yunqi inside nodded repeatedly. Then he hurriedly knelt down heavily before her. At this moment, he could not speak, so he could only try his best to express his meaning through body language.

Song Jinwan's hatred for Jiang Yuyue intensified. After taking a deep breath, she said, "I know what you mean. I will find a way to rescue you. You are an accomplice, so your crime is not too serious. In addition, my father has always loved me. As long as I go to him and cry, it should be no problem to spare your life."

Upon hearing this, Xie Yunqi's eyes immediately lit up, as if he had seen a glimmer of hope for survival. However, Song Jinwan's next words caused his expression to change drastically.

"However, there is something I need to clarify first."

Song Jinwan looked at him, her tone suddenly becoming more serious, and asked, "Xie Yunqi, is Hong'er your child?"

These words made Xie Yunqi's expression freeze, and then he nodded repeatedly. However, he was so nervous that cold sweat broke out on his back. He didn't need to guess to know that the matter of Song Honglin's bloodline must have been stirred up by that bitch Jiang Yuyue behind the scenes. Otherwise, who else would know about this matter besides her?

At this moment, Xie Yunqi truly hated that he couldn't speak. Song Jinwan was his last lifeline. If he couldn't gain Song Jinwan's trust, then he would truly be doomed!

Is he really your child?

Song Jinwan looked down at him, the suspicion in her eyes not completely gone. "Someone told me that you are a eunuch. After thinking about it carefully, I think you do seem to have a problem."

At this point, Song Jinwan paused, "Therefore, in order to confirm, this princess must have an examination. If you are healthy, this princess will immediately go to the palace to plead for you. If you are really... then this princess will make sure you die a very tragic death."

After saying this, Song Jinwan looked at the jailers beside her and said coldly, "Go in and take off his pants for this princess."

The prison guards exchanged bewildered glances upon hearing this. They were already shocked by Song Jinwan's words, and now she was going to... Such behavior was truly baffling.

Xie Yunqi's legs went weak, and he subconsciously took a step back. This action made Song Jinwan's eyes grow even colder.

"Could it be that I, this princess, can no longer command you?"

Song Jinwan shouted, "Hurry up and go!"

Seeing this, the prison guards had no choice but to comply. They immediately opened the cell door and rushed in. Together, they subdued Xie Yunqi and pinned him to the ground. Despite Xie Yunqi's struggles, he was no match for the combined strength of the guards. Moreover, there were more than two people present. After pinning him down, the guards ripped off his pants, exposing his most vulnerable parts.

The cell was dark, and only after the maidservant brought her lantern closer could she see what was happening.

Just one glance was enough to turn Song Jinwan's face deathly pale.

Judging from the terrible state of Xie Yunqi's lower body, it was clear that he was not fertile. So, it seemed that what Jiang Yuyue said was true!

A moment later, Song Jinwan's face twisted in a ferocious grimace as she glared at Xie Yunqi, her voice filled with fury as she shouted, "Xie Yunqi... how dare you insult this princess!"

Xie Yunqi was pinned to the ground and had no will to resist. The most vulnerable part of a man whose lower body had been crippled was now exposed so clearly that he had no dignity left. Moreover, this meant that what he had done to Song Jinwan could no longer be covered up. Now, let alone getting Song Jinwan to rescue him, it was questionable whether he could even withstand Song Jinwan's wrath.

The jailers were utterly horrified by what they saw. Who didn't know Song Jinwan's temper? How dare Xie Yunqi, a eunuch, deceive her?

In that case, Song Jinwan's son wouldn't be Xie Yunqi's.

But the jailer in the lead had no interest in watching the spectacle; instead, he nervously swallowed.

Having stumbled upon such a secret, will Song Jinwan allow them to live?

"Who exactly is Hong'er's father?"

Song Jinwan felt deeply humiliated, but she still decided to get to the bottom of things. Suppressing her anger, she asked, "Whose son is he?!"

Xie Yunqi, however, just grinned, as if he didn't care about life or death at all.
