"You're talking nonsense, he knows nothing!" Mrs. Xiao Shu blurted out, but only after she said it did she realize that she had said something wrong.

Du Heng collapsed to the ground and looked at Madam Xiao Shu as if she were a stranger.

Lord Shu didn't care about his status and pointed at Madam Shu and cursed: "You...you evil spirit!" This was the girl he had watched grow up, and also his daughter-in-law. The well-educated Lord Shu couldn't say anything bad, so he could only look at Madam Shu angrily.

Shu Han was the calmest. Perhaps many times people have a vague understanding, which is not very clear when it is not pointed out by others, but once it is pointed out by others, they will have a feeling of "I guess it is" and "it is as expected". Shu Han felt this way at the moment.

He had never thought before that his wife would betray him or harm him, nor had he ever thought that his child would not be his own.

Maybe it's because my heart is dead, so I'm calm. Maybe it's because I've suffered too much, so when I face this kind of thing again, although my heart aches, I won't lose my composure.

He looked at Madam Xiaoshu and asked, "Why?"

If you don't want to marry him, you can just tell him. Although he loves her, he is not the kind of person who forces you.

Mrs. Xiaoshu did not answer.

"The orientation of the fish pond and the stone house door are all according to your instructions. Do you know that this will harm me?"

Mrs. Xiaoshu still did not answer.

Lord Shu said with deep sorrow, "She must have known, she must have known. Divorce this evil spirit, and Handan will divorce him now."

With red eyes, he looked at his friend who was pale, grief-stricken, and crying bitterly: "Shushan, don't blame me for being ruthless. This matter is really intolerable!"

"You good girl, you are going to kill my son and make our Shu family extinct!"

Shu Han only married Madam Xiao Shu and did not take a concubine. Madam Xiao Shu had been married into the Shu family for ten years and had only given birth to one child, Young Master Shu.

Because Shu Han himself was unlucky, no one in the family brought up these things. Lord Shu and Old Madam Shu even felt that they owed their daughter-in-law a lot, so they usually went along with her in everything. She could do whatever she wanted, go back to her parents' home if she wanted, or go out to play if she wanted. Now it seems that every time she goes out, she goes to the home that the little princess mentioned.

It's ridiculous that the Shu family still worships such a person as an ancestor.

Du Heng wiped away her tears and said, "Brother Shu, I am sorry for not teaching my daughter well. You should divorce me. This is what you should do. Don't worry about me."

After he finished speaking, he stood up with the help of the wall, walked up to Madam Xiao Shu, slapped her twice, and said through gritted teeth: "What does this man have to do with Prince Ping's Mansion? What do you have to do with Prince Ping's Mansion?"

He slapped Madam Xiaoshu without mercy, and her face became swollen immediately. Madam Xiaoshu looked at Du Heng hatefully but did not answer.

Seeing that Madam Xiao Shu actually hated him, Du Heng pointed at her and laughed, "Hahahaha... Did you see that? She actually hates me."

"She has been spoiled by me, my wife's brother, and me since she was little. Now she has done something so cruel and hurtful to others, and she actually hates me."

Shu Han felt a little uncomfortable watching this, so he stepped forward to help him up and advised, "Uncle Yue... Don't be sad for such a person."

Seeing this, Mrs. Xiao Shu laughed sarcastically. Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly convulsed all over and bled from all seven orifices.

Tao Zhi was horrified and immediately had Madam Xiao Shu carried to Wei Fu.

After Wei Fu came back, he didn't get any useful information. Young Master Shu had never seen any monks, nor did he know who the Prince Ping's Mansion was. He also didn't know whether his uncle had any connection with the Prince Ping's Mansion.

Just when she was feeling lost and felt that she had failed to live up to the trust placed in her junior brother, she saw him running towards her in a panic, shouting, "Junior sister, help me! Junior sister, help me!"

Wei Fu first saw Tao Zhi, and then saw Madam Xiao Shu being carried in. She immediately said, "Hurry and put the person on the ground."

Then he rolled up his sleeves and ran over as if he was ready to fight. After taking a look, he quickly took out two packets of gold needles from his small pocket. With a speed so fast that outsiders could hardly see, he stabbed Mrs. Xiao Shu like a sieve. Mrs. Xiao Shu stopped convulsing, stopped bleeding, and fell into a coma.

Wei Fu was a little tired after giving so many injections at once, and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.

Du Heng was supported by Shu Han and chased after him when he heard what Wei Fu said. He stamped his feet in anger and roared at Madam Shu: "What are you trying to do?"

But Mrs. Xiao Shu fainted and could not answer his question.

"Daddy... Tian'er is scared!" The child who had been hiding in the corner was frightened by his mother's horrible appearance. Now that he saw his relatives, he couldn't help but speak out the fear in his heart and ran over to hold Shu Han's hand.

Shu Han pulled his hand out of his grasp and said softly, "I'm not your father. Your father is the uncle you drew."

Although what Mrs. Xiao Shu did was hurtful, the child was innocent. He would not vent his anger on a child, but he still had to make things clear.

The child stood still as if struck by lightning.

The child had no connection to the Shu family, but was related to the Du family. No matter how much Du Heng hated his daughter's actions, he couldn't be angry at this grandson who had been smart and well-behaved since childhood and had a strong talent for painting. He pulled him aside with a heartbroken look and said softly, "Tian'er, your father... Uncle Shu didn't lie to you."

Wei Fu realized belatedly and said, "Come to think of it, you do look somewhat like the person in the portrait."

She hadn't noticed this when she was looking at the painting before.

Shu Han said to Tao Zhizhi with a trembling voice: "Master Tao, may I borrow your portrait for a viewing?"

Tao Zhi handed the portrait to Shu Han. He now felt extremely sympathetic towards Shu Han. It was so miserable, so tragic.

Shu Han unfolded the portrait and compared it. Haha...it was indeed somewhat similar. Not exactly the same, but at least 30% similar.

Tao knew: "Master Shu, Master Du, this... lady has fainted. I will re-examine her after she wakes up. That's all for today. Do you want to go back or see the emperor?"

Although everyone's guesses about some things have basically been confirmed, there is no useful evidence. We can only wait until the man in the portrait is found and the Du family girl wakes up to see if we can get anything out of her.

Wei Fu returned to the palace with Tao Zhi, but did not follow him to the Emperor's side. After returning to Shou'an Palace, he greeted the Empress Dowager and Princess Yahe, then locked himself in his room. Pulling Tingyu and Eunuch Li, he asked seriously, "Eunuch, Sister Tingyu, does Fu'er look like the Marquis of Zhenbei?"
